THE STOLEN HORSE (Sept. 20).— In a Western town, a cowboy dashes up at break-neck speed heralding the arrival of the new school ma'am. A large crowd gathers. Her coming with the buckboard loaded with grips and trunks is hailed with delight. Every male of age in the village falls head over heels in love with her; but in a few months only two remain at ber heels. Of the two, one was a mean fellow who could brook no interference. It happened when Rose, the teacher, slipped on the rocks and was slightly injured, that Hank Peters, one of the rivals, chanced along. He immediately dispatched his man, who was riding with him, for a doctor. Then came along Ned Lester, Uie girl's favorite. "Quick," he cried to Hank, "Kide lor a doctor; my horse went lame." Hut Hank sneered at him and would not even tell him that a doctor had been sent for. Then Nod rushed for Hank's horse, but Hank pulled his gun and prevented him. Ned dashed away for a nearby bain, which chanced to be Hank'o, s^iiiJd a horse and rode off. Rose recovered sufficiently to go her way without replying to Hank. The latter soon discovered the loss of the horse, and that Ned had stolen it. Of course he knew for what purpose Ned used it, but it didn't matter to him. Hank wanted to ^et "even." And so Ned was rounded up in short order by the cowboys, charged with horse stealing, and the offense meant a rope and a telegraph pole. It looked real bad for the moment. Rose was clever. She simply placed Ned's horse In Hank's barn, then going to Ned's place of confinement, slipped him a note informing him of what she did, and for him to say that he had merely swapped horses with Hank. Hank of course denied this, and stated that Ned's horse had never seen the inside of his barn. Several cowpunchers went to investigate, and sure enough there was Ned's horse. Hank saw he had been outwitted and at last took his medicine like a man. And when Ned and Rose became "one" he gallantly presented her with the horse that had been "traded on him." RELIANCE.
