He was quiet in everything but his dress, and until about 4 o'clock in the afternoon he got along very well, and at that hour e went out for a wall:, and as he passed a saloon on the opposite side of the street he was saluted by a chorus of veils from a lot of oowboys in front . ul It- Tj .

shouted: ... "Hold on, boys; git still a mimt an' watch the fur fly. Stick your peepers on to that tubular biler hat and see me shoot a hole clear through it." Bolus pulled his gun, and the .other boys stood bsxi to enjoy the sport, while the dude walked slower than ever. Pop went the gun and the hat flew, but the dude, quicker than a flash,

whirled around. f.nd a long, poari-nan-dled revolver shone in the sunlight for an instant and then cracked. Bolus hat jumped six feet off his head, and before any of the boys twuld ttunk,

Under a window on the west side of the house was the mark of a rubber boot, or shoe, showing that somebody had stood there and watched while Uie murderer was at his work intlde. Everything connected with the case indicated that the murder had been done by somebody familiar with tlw : bouse the habits of its occupants.
