was murdered by Peter Miller yesterday.
Tiedeman and E. Bennett were employed
by Contractor J. N. Johnson to gather
stone from school section 10 and refused
to leave at the order of Miller. He left
and returned later with a 12-gauge dou
ble-barreled shotgun. Advancing to with

fired at the laborer. Almost instant death
resulted. Tiedeman ran about 20 feet

IT was rapidly growing dusk on
the wide prairie, and the stars were
Just beginning to show like glitter
ing diamond points. Just the sugges
tion of the autumn was In the cool
night air. The stillness as Jim and
Miss Waring drove along over the si
lent plain was broken now and then
by a sharp, startling rattle, a sound
once heard never to be forgotten, the
danger signal of the deadly rattle
snake coiled up in the long, brown
grass.
"Hit appears to me," Jim was say
ing, "that that air wind don't bode any
good to the settlers 'round these parts."
"Why so, Jim?"
"Guess you hain't ever ben on one
of our Dakoty perairies afore. Miss
Waring, or you wouldn't have asked
such a question. There's two things
out hyar that's more feared than the
Old Nick himself—one on 'em's a perai
rie fire and another's a perarie with the
wind a-blowin' a forty-mile-an-hour
gale."
They rode on again In silence. Agnes
Waring had come from the far great
city to visit her brother on his Western
ranch. Jim, the man-of-all-work, was
driving her out from the station, fifteen
miles from the ranch.
"By the long-horned spoons I" said
Jim smldeuly, rising In bis seat and
stopping tbe horses with it tremendous
jerk, "look over there, will you? Thar's
blzness for us, sure's you're a foot
high! Git up there?" he yelled to the
horses, and, giving one of them a sting
ing blow with his whip, they sprang
Into a run. Across tbe level plain sbone
a light, tbe light at the ranch head
quarters nearly a mile away. To the
left of It a dull, reddish glow had come
up and, now and then, at the horizon
line, where the darker part of the sky
was lost In the prairie, sharp flames
were darting up.
"Don't be skeered," Jim ejaculated,
as he whipped the horses Into a yet
more furious pace; "there ain't no dan
ger—leastwise for us."
Alice was a self-possessed city girl
with a generous stock of old-fashioned
common sense; but she was startled at
Jim's actions and her face had grown
pale.
"Everything's all right," said Jim, as
reassuring as he could under the cir
cumstances; "don't you be skeered."
He had seized tbe reins between his
Arm, strong teeth, and now with one
hand, now with tbe other, now with
both, be was whipping the horses Into
still greater speed. "Hate—ter—lick a
team—like this"—as the wag in bounced
aud tumbled and rattled along; "hate
ter do hit—but hit—can't be "helped—
when there's life—depends—on It."
A few moments more and tbe horses
dashed up to tbe big ranch headquar
ters house. Jim threw the lines to tbe
ground and seizing Alice by the waist,
jumped out with her.
"Sorry to be so imperllte, hut there
ain't any time to wait —kin you ride
hossback ?"
Barely waiting for an affirmative an
swer from the girl, who was passion
ately fond of riding, and who modestly
owned the gold medal for superior
liorsewomanship In her city riding
club, Jim ran to the barn, flung a man's
saddle on a beautiful horse, and before
Alice had time to recover from her sur
prise at this novel Introduction to her
brother's establishment, tbe horse was
before her.
"You say you kin ride; wa'al here's
the best chance to show hit you ever
had lu your life. Thai's the best hoss
In McLeod County—racln' blood for
five generations; there alu't nothin' but
a perairie fire kin ketch him. Jump
bim, Miss Waring, ride straight toward
the fire yonder; thar ain't no danger
now till you git ter Mule Crick. Jest
over the crick a quarter of a mile or so
thar's a Russian woman an' her six
weeks' old baby. She's all alone, for
I saw lier husband In town when we
left. They hain't backfired an Inch,
and you've got to git the woman and
her baby over the crick, gee? I'd go
myself, but the wind Is shifted and
this hull rauch'll be In danger afore
long. You'll pass your brother and a
parcel o' men backflrln' along the line;
don't stop for any explanations, but
ride fer the crick an' ride as If Old
Harry was on yer track! You been't
afeerd, be you?"
The blood had come back to the pale
cheeks.
"You say there's little danger of my
losing my life, Jim?"
"Not a bit—ef you only git that
woman across the crick In time; but
don't wait—Jump quick, fer the Lord's
sake, or you'll be too late."
With a rude toss he threw her Into
saddle as If she had been a child, and
banded her the reins. As be did so be
thrust a short, cruel rawhide Into her
band.
"Don't bit him with that unless you
have to—he's never been licked In his
life; but he can outrun a cyclone. Ef
you have ter hit him give It to him red
hot!"
It Is long, sometimes, before n horse
and Its rider become acquainted with
one another: but It seemed but a few
seconds to Alice before she aud the
noble animal were old friends. Jim wan
right, Prince Hal could run; and after
the first few tremendous jumps and
Alice had steadied herself In the saddle
the thrilling excitement stirred her
blood like an Intoxicant, and she real
lied that Jim had told the truth; It
promised to be the race of her life.
"Je-ho-sa-phatP" exclaimed a man
who was plowing a tire furrow along
the edge of the ranch where the men
were at work. "Mr. Waring, look, will
you! Look at Prince Half'
Mr. Waring had not more than time
to look up before he saw his choicest
mount pass by him like the wind, a
girl with hair flying behind ber on his
back, tbe borse going at a pace that not
his fastest Kentucky ancester ever
matched.
On the horse went as If he, too, knew
of the life-saving mission of tbe hoar.
Tbe foam came from bis teeth, and
flanks were white. Alice leaned for
ward In the saddle, as she urged bim
on, and stroked his neck.
A moment more and they were at the
creek, a (hallow stream. Beyond, Alice
could see a low house silhouetted
against a great red bank of flame. The
fire was coming. Already she could
feel the Intense heat. A leap and a
bound; they were over the stream and
on again with still swifter flight. It
was a matter of seconds now until the
low sod house was reached. In front
of It was the Russjpn peasant woman,
frantically trying to save some of her
household goods by dragging them
with one hand further from the course
of the tire, while In one arm she clutch
ed the baby, around which she had
thrown a wet shawl to protect it from
the heat.
"Why didn't you run?" cried Alice,
as she jumped from the horse; "don't
you see, the fire Is almost on you? You
can't save your things; run for the
creek! Run, I say, or you'll be burned
to death I"
Alice caught the child from the
woman's arms and sprang up into the
saddle as best she could. The woman
stood as If stupefied, the red glow from
the coming flames lighting up her stolid
face. The flre was coming on faster
now; they could hear the roar and
crackle as it swept through the long,
man-high grass of the swale beyond
the fence.
"Quick! quick, I say! no, you can't
run fast enough now to get to the
creek; jump behind me, quick! quick!
or we shall all be burned. I can't leave
you here to die!"
The woman's stolid nature was
aroused at last by the animal fear of
danger, and while the heat grew more
intense every minute, she clambered!
up behind Alice.
Prince Hal's face was toward the
fire. He had not moved since he
reached the spot; he seemed like some
beautiful statue, his body motionless,
his ears sharp erect, l)is nostrils dis
tended; the awful fascination of the
fire was upon him.
Alice pulled at the bit to turn him.
He paid no attention. She spoke
sharply, but he only moved uneasily;
he would not stir from the spot. Swift
er than an electric shock came the
thought to her mind that horses In
burning buildings would stay and die
in the flames before they would be led
out. It would be impossible to reach
the creek on foot; in half a minute
OS A LIFK-SAVIXG MISSION.
more the flames would be on them.
Snatching the wet shawl from the baby
with one hand, and swinging the child
backward to Its mother with the other,
she threw the shawl over the horse's
head. With the sight of the fire shut
out he quivered, turned as the bit gave
him a sharp twist, and, Just as the
flames were leaping over the sheds
bard by the house, he sprang away.
It was a race for life now—for three
lives; for the wind had Increased to a
gale, and there Is nothing more terrible
lu this wtfld than such a relentless
ocean of flame as was rolling over this
grass-grown plain.
Alice thought of Jim's parting ad
vice:
"He's never been licked In his life)
kut If you have ter, give It to him red)
hot!"
With a sharp cry, urging the bors«
on under his heavy Uurden, Bhe struck
him with all her strength on the quiv
ering flauk, not once, but many times.
He Jumped as If stung by a rattlesnake,
and seizing the bit In his teeth, sprang
away as If shot from some mighty cata
pult.
Alice had lost all control of him now.
She could neither guide nor check nor
urge blm. The blood of a noble ances
try, the blood of a racer was on Are In
his veins. Down the short hill, ov,er
the brook, up the further side, on over
the plain like some wild spirit of the
night he ran. A cheer that you could
have beard a mile, and that, mayhap,
was heard clear up to the stars of
heaven, rang out as Prince Hal, white
with foam, flew by the crowd of men.
"Wa'al, ef yon ain't the pluckiest
gall" said Jim, as he helped Alice from
the saddle; "an' you ain't agoln' ter
faint, nuther; I kin tell It by your eye.
Didn't I tell you he could outrun a
cyclone? But there had ter be some
body a-top o' blm who knew how ter

New York, March 18. —A dispatch to
the Tribune from Havana says;
The popular demonstration in honor of
General Gomez at the Quinta de lot Me
linos seems to have been turned by the
anti-assembly leaders into something of
a presidential boom for the "grand old
man" of Cuban politics. Most of the
speakers insisted on proclaiming the de
!>oßed general in chief the sole guarantor
of insular independence and the inevitable
head of the still unfounded Cuban repub
lic
In reply to these highly flattering as
surances, General Gomez cautiously, but
still suggestively, declared that lie could
not think of accepting the presidential
title unless it were bestowed upon him by
the unanimous vote of the Cubau people.
This answer disclosed an intention sin
gularly at variance with the program he
announced in his manifest? of Sunday
last. In that manifesto he said that his
sole desire was now to retire to private
life and end his days in peace on his plan
tation in San Domingo. His new atti
tude is also in striking contrast with the
offer of his sword to a committee of Puer
to Ricans who had suggested the initia
tion of a movement for the independence
of that island.
The military assembly held no meeting
yesterday and its members are hopelessly
demoralized and altogether at sea as to
their future program. One result of the

the removal from office of the civil gov

superintendent of police, General Mario

the Gomez faction of having shown undue
partisanship in trying to repress the pop

At General Brooke's headquarters it was

A man, recently left a widower, when
arranging for his late wife's tombstone
gave orders that the lettering should be
of a stated size. At the bottom of the
stone he wished to have the words,
"Lord, she was Thine." The stonemason
saijl he was afraid there would not be
room for the words, but the bereaved wid
ower insisted, and the caning was put in
hand. The correctness of the mason's
view was justified, for when the stone was
finished, at the foot of the tablet were
the words, "Lord, she was thin."
