t— mm— CLEVER SHORT STORIES. Jnek Slade's Last Bom, Cinotnnati Commereial. The mellow haze of an autumn even- {ng wrapt its silvery folds over a grander landscape than has ever glowed from artist’s canvas, ns, ‘some years ago, I threaded my way down the jagged sides of a deep-cloft canyon in the solid walls of the mountains, which, like a vast amphithenter, cordon the headwaters of the Marins river of Montana, Stretch- ing forth on either hand loomed the imighty peaks, their regal summits ‘mantled in everlasting snows and the ‘outlfoes of their giant masses growing ‘dimmer until melted upon the horizon mistily into the amber sky, at their feet and upon the verge of the lain, altern- ating groups of timbered buttes, naked ‘basaltic pinnacles, and rounded cones dyed erymson with decomposing chaly- ‘beato saits, and far below the great plains a panorama of golden grassed platenu, and winding silvery streams, hero and there laced with intermingled ‘emerald, ruby and topaz tints of the changing foliage of clustering cotton- woods. I had been hunting mountain sheep, and in the chase had wandered far out of my way, 80 that as I reached the foot of the hills the sun had set behind the snowecans, and I realized that 1 was far from enmp and must face the unpleasant prospect of a supperiess, lonely night in the timber, Turning the angle of a naked butte whose rocky comb jutted 10 the banks of a little stream, which here danced over the rocky bed, I was rejoiced to seo a small hut benoath a shelwering grove of trees, near which curled a column of blue smoke from a cheery enmpfire. Before it, busily engaged io dressing a‘deer, was a tall, grayhaired man who, ns his dog, a handsome deerhound, made knowh my presence with a short yelp and then a prolonged cry, straight- ened himself to his full leight, and shading his eyes with his brown and hairy hand, gazed long and earnestly upon me, until, standing directly before him, he said to me shortly: “Hello! stranger.” *‘Hello,” I said in return, as I looked uneasily at the dog, who followed me closely with his 1ip curled over his white tusks. ‘“Lie down, Bruce!” he said, throwing a piece of meat before the animal as he obeyed. *“The dog will not bite you, but it is seldom he sees a human faco besides my own, and he is a nervous brute. Where are you from?” “I am with a party of hunters who are camped across the hills yonder, but have strayed too far away to return tonight. Can’ you give me supper and a shake down?” “You can share my venison and blunkets, stranger, and welcome. Just \ay your gun_in the tent! Thisis the fattest buck I ever killed in these moun- tains. Hand me that pan at your feet wnd 1’1l give you a cut in a moment that will warm your heart. I've had my sup- per, and the coffee is still smoking in the pot,” In n few minutes, with the proverbial hunter’s appetite, I had devoured two fiberal alleee. of. the juicy venison, & quantity of black *‘sour dough” bread, and emptied the pot of camp cafe noir. During the progress of my meal the deer was dressed with the deflt skill that indicated a long practiced hand, and the curcuss hung high upon the limb of a convenient cotfonwood. When I had finished, my host cleared away the sim- yle *table” equipage, and drawing forth # huge plug of tobacco from the pocket 9f his buckskin frock offered it to me, \agethor with a corncob pipe of which be produced the mate. s We quietly commenced our smoke the purple shades of night came stealing down from the mountains and the fire- light soon brought forth with Rem- vrandt distinctness the features of- my new found companion, as he sat thought- fully before it. His bronze face in its setting of curling gray locks was a strong one, reflecting an intense emo- tional nature, and there were furrowed \ines about his handsome mouth, and a shadowy depth in the blue eyes, which Jold of the habit of concentrated thought which belongy to the life of the recluse. **¥You must be n very keen sportsman,” I continued, *'to live so lonely a life in the desert with nothing but & dog for company.” Heo turned his deep-set eyes slowly upon me, then, pouring forth a volume of blue smoke lazily upward, he said, drawing his pipe from his mouth: “Stranger, I don’t get a chance to talk very often, and I'll tell you a chapter of my life. Perhaps you will then better understand why I like this way of living. **DId you ever hear of Captain Jack Slade, who was hung at Virginia City in 18647 You have? I should huve said you must be a pretty fresh pilgrim if Yyou hadn’t, **Well, sir, I came to Colorado in 1859, when I was guite a kid, and one of the first men I fell in with was Captain Jack Slade. Ho wus at that time operating a division over the Overland stage line for the Bon Halliday company, and I went to work for him su o stock tender on a ranch far out on the line in the Indian country. One night ustage came in with no one on board,save the driver and messenger, but a single lady passenger. The messenger wae drunk !ngnho stag- gered into the cabin to get ready for supper. I noticed that he offered some attentions to the lady that were not wall reveiyed. I had my horses to take care of, and 50 had no time to see farther,but when I had hooked up the fresh team, and - the driver ud mounted the box and gathered up the lines, I went into the waitingroom 1o call the time, when I saw thedrunken messenger brutally pushing, the lady into a' corner and trying to kiss her, She was quito young, and her face was ‘mlnllsn ghost's, while her long black hair hung down in scattered locks over her shoulders, from the effects of the struggle. “I'stopped up, and, grasping the mes- senger by tho urms, threw him into u corner, *Quick 05 & flash ho had drawn one of the heavy Colt's pistols, which were then earried by all stage men, and, nim- xnfi it full at me, pulled tho trigger. It falled to go off, and with a curse he cocked it once ugain. ‘I had no time to get out of the way, and 1 was begioning the words of u renlly forgotten littlo prayer my mother bhad taught me when, from behind, I heard n «fiicklnz sound like un echo. In another instant a sharp report vang out, und the messenger lulrdmd ut my feot, Turning around 1 saw Juck Slade just putting his revolver buck into his belt, with a terrible smile on his fuce. Muk- ing u bow he wulked up to the lady and offered her his arm. She shrank from hiw, and he did not (nsist, but, throwing open the door, he said to me: **Show the lady to the coach.” 1 did so, and 1 shall never forget the loo’s of horror which seemed frozen into her fuce, Well, sir, timo passed on,und Ireceived in wy lovely situation man little kindnesses from the hands of Juci Slude. Sometimes he would bring me a box of good cigurs,a bundle of illustrated pers. or w basket of fresh fruit from he settlements. *At last he left the line and started a freighting outtit up north in the Milk river country, sud the day bofore he Started he came and offered me & job to night-herd. I took it, md the next morning his train came on and I jeft for Montana. 1 worked with him a long time and always got my pay promptly when it ‘was due, and never did man have a kinder master. One morning whon our teain was laid up, Slade cmme by camp with some of hig men and I seaw he was drunk. He ordered me to saddle my horse und go ! with him. “This1 did, and in a few minutes there were twonty of us dashing at break-neck speed toward Virginin City. When we got there we went into several saloons and drank whi until we were all pretty reckless. ade rode through the streets flourishing his gun and shooting it into the air, while we fol- lowed shiouting ourselves hoarse. At length an officer came witha paper, and presented it to Slude. Heo glanced at it u minue, and then, leaving his horse with one of our men, he en- tered the court room, thrust it under the nose of Judge Alex Davis, then tore it intoshreds, and pulling his six-shooter presented it at the judge’s head and said, ‘I -hold you aus u hostage for my safoty. ; “He then canie out again. and we Fegan another mad. gallop up and down the streots. I don’t know exactly what made me think so, as full of whisky as I was, but there seemed a promise of evil in the air, the town seemed 8o hushed and silent, and I could see men riding out in all directions as though bent on gome important errand. “Slade bad brought his horse into a saloon und was trying to make him lenp upon a billiard table when the doors were suddenly flung open and ten or fif- teen men, with cocked shotguns, walked in and, covering all of us, they seized Slade and led him into the sireet. It was the first time in my life I had ever seen the color leave his face. We fol- lowed, und found a miner’s jury already assembled in the open air, with a pha- lanx of men stretched away on every side with muskets and pistols. “Slade turned to me and said in a broken voice: ‘Juck, ride to the ranch and bring my wife. *L waited for nothing further, but forcing my way through the crowd I loaped upon my horse and was soon speeding away to the home ranch on LL(‘, Madison. 1 found his wife busy with her sewing, but my fow hurried words brought her to her feet and in a moment she was all action. I roped her horse, a swift and beautiful broncho, which was grazing near, and without wuiting for u saddle she leaped astride him and away wo flew across country. When we came near town I saw large numbers of men Jeaving on foot and on horseback, and my heart told me it was too late, but we did not slacken our speed, and in a few minutes we were tearing through the main street. In the distance 1 saw a terrible object swaying in the wind, and drawing near it, there before us wus the body of Jack Slade, hanging like a dog to the corral gate. The woman’s gmef wins hard to witness, and my own tears blinded me. Well, sir, in three days I bought a hunter’s outfit and went into the mountains alone, and this has been my business ever since.” As he ceased, the last glowing embers fell away into gray ashes, and we crept into the little tent to bed. True Story of New York ‘o, It was a sweltering night early in September in Florida. The usual night breeze had not set in, and all nature was panting for breath. I was sitting at the table in the starboard steerage of the ship T—, writing the last lotter to my sweetheart far to the northward; tho candles, our only light, burned languidly forlack of air, and I was in light cos- tume, A hand wus laid on my. shoulder and the kind voice of a dear messmate requested me to put aside my writing and come for a walk, “The moon is just getting up, and I want to talk to you.” The spenker was one of the finest specimens of a man that I have ever known—tall,broad and fair haired—well- beloved for his unfailing good nature and his merry moods, our most popular man. I protested that I must finish my letter, and that 1t was too utterly hot to walk, and I begged to be excused, But there was something so earnest in the man’s appeal, repeated very gravely, that it fixed my attention, *Come, 1 waotto talk to you about something very particularly; 1 must talk to you und at once.” So I, rather impatiently, put the clos- ing words to my letter, and hurriedly getting in to some clothes joined him on deck, and we left the ship. There was a long avenue lined with yucca trees leading to the village, and we were soon walking under these in the moon- light. **I suppose you think it rather strange that I should insist upon your coming out tonight, but I must talk to you.” “Well, what is this most important business?” I inquired. I want you to listen to me with close attention,” said Bob. *‘I am not going to have any argument with you as to the sense of what I am going to tell you. I wantyouto promiso me to tuke charge of myeffects and forward them to thisaddress,” handing me a paper. “Why, what do you mean? What has got into your head? Going to desert the ship?” I asked, jokingly. “Nothing at all of that; we must be serious. I want to tell you, my best friend, that I have had my warning, and [ shall be dead in three days from this time.”” **Nonsensel”” T exclaimed; **what fool- ery is this?” **’Tis not nonsense, and you must not try to ridicule my beliel. "I repeat to you that in three days from this hour T shall be buried in the Gulf of Mexico.” “Stuff!” I said. *“What nas possessed you to get into this morbid state?” “Now listen—the members of my family have always been warned. I have had wmy warning. What is the use of trying to persuade me s to the folly®f it? The main point, and the only one is: ~Will you uccept the ro- sponsibility that I impose on you?” " “Why, certainly,” said I, f‘;olding his arm closor, for we always walked arm in arm, “but tell me; here, man, with ma- vhinery deranged, without coal, without orders from the départment to go to sea, how could the ship be ready for sea in thireo days, much less be 'in the Gulf then?” evertheless,” ho replied, “we will be there, and 1 shall be buried three nights from this time in the Gulf of Mexico.” There was no use of further protest; I knew him well, and I knew from his munner that further talk would be of no uvail; so I tried another tack. At any rate, you're in good shupe so fur; so let’s go on to F——'s and get & #luss or Lwo of grog, and smoke a cigar, and have no more of this tonight.” And assuming o gaiety I did, not feel, 1 hummed: “On such a night as this, oh, love long lost!™ He tried to enter into the spirit of my rnqmul. and wo went to the little club, may almost call it, whe'e the good woman, the wife of the pilot, allowed us to keep & private bottlo or two und box of cigurs; and I talkea gayly to her and to the others there, and we rallied *Bob" about some of his litile foibles. He took it all quite plonsantly, and 1 bad hoped he hud forgotten the talk of & THE OMAHA little while before. Wo lo# the house about 9 o'clock, and snuntered along toward the ship, He suddenly turned to 1pe and sald STt has got T “What?” T cried, for ho had thor- oughly alarmed me. “The fever.” Well, Istopped, held bis havds and felt his pulse. He was as hotand dry as a “lime-burner’s wig,” and, taking him by the hand, T said: *“Now lot us walk fast and break this fover right off.” We did so. 1 wassoon as wet as if T had boen in a drenching shower, but ho never turnad a hair. Hot and fushed, I got him th the ship, turred him into his bunk and summoned the doctor. Before 11 o’clock ho was delirious, and his dis- ®ise was yellow fover. The next day came orders to_hurry to sea. Iverybody busy, a coaling ship putting engines in order, taking pro- visions, etc., and the following day we left the yard, and so 1t happened that, on the third day after our talk, he died. And we stood about the deck in the fall- ing rain—n sad, sad group while the captuin read by the light of the deck lnnterns the service of the dead, and his messmates raised the gang plank, and suw all that remained of noble old Bob committed to the deep. His prediction came true; it was three days exactly when he left us, und 1 have never seen &0 many tearful men together as 1 did that rainy September night on the Guif of Mexico, st S RENE TRINGEON (s vl Dr. J.

Dumont Explains Another Featuro of the Nobraska Central Propositio Omana, June 6.0 the Editor of Tus Be Mauy people do not understand why we refused to agree to & maxumum rate over the propused Nebraska Central bridge. Please allow me to explain through the col- utons of Tug Bre. To carry out any enter- prise inyolving the expenditure of so large a sum, it would bo necessary Lo borrosw castern capital as no syndicato could be found in Omaha able to” puild tho various improve- ments without borrowing. It woula not be aesirable, even if possible, to. withdraw so much local capital from circulation for one enterprise, as it would bring about a string- ency which would hamper business and de- prive the publjc of many benefits which would result from the expend:ture of thi large sum within our city. If the money is secured Irom easiorn or foreigo capitalists, the money lying idle in our banks will be in: vested in smaller enterprises which the peo- ple will have courage to undertake, when (and not until) contidence has been restored by the carrying out of some large undertak- ing such as i3 proposed by the Nebraska Central. To be able to orrow for an enterprise of this kind, the project must be so feasivle and 1ts earning power so clearly demonstrated that no reasonable douvt will exist with re- spect Lo Lhe pavment of interest upon the bonded debt, The purchasers of railway securities are not inclined to buy bonds upon any properiy subject to regulation, and look upon local regulation as speially objaction- able, because Lthey do not have faith that such regulation will always be fairly and 1n- telligently administered, the authorities to shom power to regulate is delegated being necessarily lnteres{‘ed and not usually welt informed upon such matters. I do not ex- press any opinion with regard to the justice of this sentimont, but kuowing of its ex- istence could not safely ignore it. In tho face of the fact that1 had been advised by many prominent finaciers, in- cluding a number of Omaha banlkers who are not interested in our project, that we could never sell any bonds upon the property if wo tied un‘i“u eafnlog power and subjected it to regulation, 1 have ugreed toso tie up ana subject it, so far as it relates 1o the cnarges .to e made to other railway companies for the use not ouly of the bridge, but of all of its property, including the 100 mites of rail- road in the state of JTowa. I was willing to do this pecause it is our intention to make it what might ba termea 8 publio highway or toll road and make it profitable by inducing alarge number of companies to use it, and because 1 was awaro of the fact that we would not be able to secure contracts with the ilarge corporutions whom wo desire to secure as tenants upon auy basis that would be considered exocessive or exorbitaut even by interested local arvitrators, . You will seo that by conseuting to- these' conditions ywe hfvo ‘completely eliminated- any pms!I,B[IIL_v of this propérly becoming a monopoly, and that it will pe impossible for us to enter iuto any arrangement with tho present bridge company which would prevent any railrond company desiring to enter Omuha from d oing 80 or enable us to charge an unreasonable toll or rental. Many people do not seem to understand that the conditions reforred to take effect immeaiately. “The fact is thatnothing is postponed for five years except the power to regulate charges for transporung freight across tno bridge. I refused 10 agree that this ¢ should be- come operative immediately becanse [ sincerely belioved that to do 5o would de- strov all possibility of securing funds for construction. Now let us see what was de- ot that a rate should be fixed ebraska Central should be eu- charge and receive, but that the rates should be fixed by the arbitrators upon such a basis as might be considered reason- able, not exceeding & certain maximum rate. You will see that the public was to be pro- tected against injustice by arbitrators, but how atout the company? It could not fig- ure on any basis whatever, as no one could predict what rates would be fixed. By the prosent agreemont wo have con- tracted to go in10 competition with the pres- ent bridge company at once, so far as it re- lates to the entrance of other roads into Omaha, and have agreed toallow all roads to use our proparty to compete with the roads now using the Uniop Pacific bridge aud lines for business to ba carried to snd from this point. Suppose we had gone further and agreed to the proposed regulation of rates, We would then have been iu the position of having agreed to redvoe the rates not only ut Omaha, but at all points on the Missourl viver (as tho rates aro the same at all points) and when offering our securities for sale the bondbuyer would have said at once: *“You have contracted in advance 10 go into a rate war with the Unlon _Pacifie, and it also affects all other roads owning Missourl river bridges. You will bave a bridge and 133 miles of road and the Union Pacitieits bridge aud oatensive system of railroad and the sympatny of the other roads. You have no chanoe to win. They cau und will bankrupt you.” Does anyone believe tbat capital, ‘which is always timid, would seek such an fovestment! No. On the contrary any well informed person kuows that wo would be looked upon as *chumps” for trywng to sell bouds subject to such conditions. In the discussion before the county cowm- missioners and city couucil, [ coutended that 1l the bridge was made s public highway at reasonable rental comnetition would teke caro of rates. Others contendoed that com pe- uition doos not compete. 1 still believe that Tam rightand in lugpflrl of my opinion would cite the fact that rates across the Union Pacilo bridge are less than half what they were before the building of the bridges ‘at Plattsmoutnh and Blair, and that the Merchants bridge at St Louis largely reduced rates at that point, notwith- swanding the fact that it was subject to oo rogulution, The five-year clause in the Ne- orasia Central proposition was agreed to as a compromise 80 that if competition did not reduce the rates arbitrators should bave power to fix rates after Lbat time. If you will permit me [ will show in an- other lotter that the bridge rates are of much less importanco thau is generally supposed. Yours respectivlly, J. i Dusoxr, e — Workingmen,Vote for the Bonds!
