BLAKE'S ' WIDOW ,
Win. 8. ltl < lnnl"cm In tlio Ito.stm Coiitler.
.Join lilako hud boon shut dead It
his own doorway by Antonio Guoldo ,
and tlio trial was to coinu oil'directly.
The extraordimuy interest in Hit !
all'air was loss duo to the inurdor iind
its peculiar circumstances than to tli
fact that tJiia was the Ihat case tried
at San S.ibii in any morn formal court
than tin time-honored institution of
Judge Lynch , .Km had boon a quiet
man and a need neighbor , with a
hand always ready to help any ono
who was out of luck , so public aonti
inont ran pretty high against Antonio.
If the general inclination had been
followed as , up to that time it always
had the last named gentleman would
lmvi > found very HC.UH opportunity to
make any romarku in his own bohalf.
However , things wore advancing at
San Snbn aa well as elsewhere , and it
wouldn't do to hang An onio without
a regular trial , no matter how agree
able such a proceeding might bo to the
people at largo.
So ran * hu opinion expressed by
Judge Pitblado , whoso idt-.is on Bitch
subjects woio generally accepted with
out comment
Nevertheless there was more than
ono dissenter in the piescnt instance ,
to whom it was by no moans clear
that thern could ho any sense or profit
in thus beating about the bush.
"Kf Antonio's goin' tor bo hung ,
why in don't wo hang him ? "
Tins was the pertinent query of
Jnko Smith , the leader of the oppoi
ing faction , and his view of the ques
tion put it in so clear a light that the
judge had great dillieulty in impress
ing people with bis conviction. Ho
said things had gone on in an irregu
lar way long o > ougb , and hero was a
chance to start the law in properly ,
and give it a fair show , Uesidos , it
didn't make any kind of dill'oioncoj
Antonio had shot Jem , hadn't hot
Well , then , what wnstho use of talk
ing ? All tlio jury would have to do
now wan to return their verdict of
guilty in the first degree , and tlioro
you , voro all comfortable.
It was just the uamo thing in the
end exactly.
"I tell yer , ' said the judge , who
felt the weight of his title , albeit the
name was altogether ono of courtesy ;
" 1 tell yer thero'n nothin' like doin' a
thii'greg'lar ' ; partikerlally when yor
know just how it's coinin' out. "
So tlio judge's argument , supported
by his intliioiico , and increasing bias
at S.in Saba in favor of more civili/.od
views , settled the matter , and it wan
decided that Antonio Uticldo should
bu tried before ho was hanged.
As tlioro was nri place specially ar
ranged for such ceremonies , Judge
L'itbiado hospitably oll'ored the tiso of
his shed.
Here a rough table and ch'iir ' were
placed for the judge , ( ho other IICCPH-
sary furniture intending to represent
the dock , tlio Htand , etc , being eked
out with boxes from Silas Baggtitt'u
gjocory storo.
Jake Smith looked on at those
preparations for a time with frowning
discontent , and then strolled down
the ro d , turning into the land that
led to JJlako's.
When ho reached the door of the
ahanty ho Ipuicd against the jamb
and poked hiw naked head inside , fan
ning himself in an omharraBsod way
with hi ) greasy fragment of a hat ,
Ho had come there with the intention
of saying something , but thu sight
within made him forgot it ,
Blake'n widow sat there , as she hud
sat pretty much all the time since thu
murder , Blaring straight before her ,
with her chin in her pulm. The sun
light struck through the foliiigo of the
red ouk truus that g.ow before thu
door , nnd checkered with flickering
brightness the Iloor and llie cradle
where Jem's baby was sleeping.
There it was , just as it had been
three days ago ; ( could it bo onlythreu
days ! ) just as it had been when sliu
went out that morning to look after
tlio drying clotoes , and loft him stand
ing in the door by thu cradle , ( how
fond ho was of the baby ) just ns it was
when she heard the crack of the piatol ,
and r.in in with uu awful aonso of
suli'ocating fright ; just the uamo as
she had found him lying upon the
c radio , dabbling its white linun with
his blood , and the baby playing with
liib hair. She screamed once , the
firat and last complaint any ono had
heard her make ; then she was ijuiot
and helpful through St ull ; when the
men caino and lifted him up , when
they laid him out upon the rough bed
in the other room , when they carried
him to his grave , BIU following \vith
the baby in her arum ,
Jake Smith was trying to find the
link minding in his thoughts ; ho snill-
ed with porpli'xity-or something -
and Blako's widow looked up without
speaking. Jake nodded pleasantly
four or five tiinoa.
" 1'ooty chipper ? " itaid ho.
IJlako'a widow smiled Badly , bent
over the sleeping child and smoothed
the clothes with a tender touch ,
"They're ngoin to try him in tlio

" 1 don't Bee how , but hi > 'a got goino
kind of a law cuss to sponk for him
a feller that stopped hero n day or
two ago on his way to Galveston , and
it makes me kind o' nervous. "
Blake's widow did not appear to no
tice the lait renmrkj for the child ,
distnrbiid by the talking , had n\\ak-
ened and mat tip in his cradle \\itha
wondering look.
"Pooty , ain't ho ? " said Jake , re

"Of course he's hnd--you'u got
there ain't nothing 1 could do fur yor ,

Shu anstvured withn grateful look ,
but it wni accompanied by a shako of
the beat' .
Jake bent do\vn , and , with Ins bit ;
forefinger softly rumpled the hair of
the baby's head ; then heent out
and left them , Blake's widow sitting
as he had found her , and tlio luby
staring down the path after htm.
He walked on until he reached the
top of the little hill , where ho could
look down upon the roof which cov
ered the piteous scene ho had just
liJt. Hero ho seemed to have half a
mind to turn back , for ho hesitated
and stopped , but he changed his par
tial intention after' lingering a mo

II.
Of course everybody came to tlio
trial. The airangemonta woto aooi
tound to bo altogether too me.tgiu. .
Pitblado's shed was filled to oveillow-
ing , and Baggert made u clean sweep
of every box in hi ? store.
Antonio's lawyer , n sharp-eyed ,
sharp-featured follow from Oalvehum ,
had bustled about with aurptMiig
agility on the day previous , holdinu
mysterious confeienco with ill-con
ditioned fellows of Guoldo's kidney.
.lake Smith was highly dii atitlicd ,
and even the judge was heard to ut
ter some misgivings ; however by the
time the proceedings had really com
menced ho gained confidence.
Thu com t was assembled , the jury
had been oliosjn , and the witnesses
wore all present save one--Blake's
widow.
Pretty soon there wns a stir at the
door ; then n muinuir of stirpiinu ran
throuuh the crowded room.
"iMny I be d d , " said Jake
Smith , audibly , "if slie Inisn't brought
her baby ! "
What reason she may have had for
not leaving that little thing in charge
of some synuwthi/.ing womnn and
there were plenty who would have
been glad of the trust -waa not ap
parent ; however that might be , there
it wan clumped litmly in her arms , its
b rial it red cheeks contrasting with her
whiteness , and its father's sunny hair
niingliiiL' with her dark locks.
\ \ ith some dillieulty way was made
through the throng to her seat , which
had been placed on one aide of the
judge , diiectly opposite the cundlo-
box on the other , where Antonio sat.
She took her place and never moved
during thu whole of the trial , except
ing as she was required to testify , and
once when the baby tugged at some
glistening thing that lay in the folds
of her dress , at which she took pains
to distract its attention by a chip from
the floor.
As for the baby it sat there with its
big , blue eyes open to their fullest ex
tent , entirely absorbed in the novel
auene , save at the moment when that
irresistible glitter caught its oyo.
Kvory ono being now present the
trial went on in good earnest. A
number of witnesses were examined ,
whose testimony showed that Gueldo
had had trouble with Blake , and more
than once threatened Ins life : that
Guoldo's pistol was ono charge shorten
on the evening < rf the day of the
murder , whereas in the morning it
had been full ; that he was seen that
morning around Blake's house , und
more than all that Blake's widow had
heard Guoldti's vcice just before the
fatal shot , and hud seen his retreating
form us stiu ran in.
At this last point the Galvo.ston
lawyer linked the witness a few ques
tions regarding how she know it was
Guoldo , and how she had rocognixtd
the voice for his. She didn't know
how exactly , but was none the less
xure for that ,
There had boon a rumor about that
someone hud heard Antonio make a
bouHt of having "none for Bluko this
time , " but if there were a witness
for this he could not be fem d now ,
Ana HO the prosecution closed.
The Gaventon ! lawyer began by in
volving in a wlnrlpool of hopeless
contradiction , the witness who had
sworn to having seen Gueldo near
Blake's house. Then he oxpiuted on
the case with which one poison may
bo mistaken for another , and brought
a witness to show how Guuldo had al
ready been said to resemble some one
in thu village. Finally he produced
three of thu ill-conditioned follows
before referred to , who swore that
Antonio was with them on a hunting
expedition during the uholo of thu
day on which the murder was com.
mitted.
It WUH a clear caiu of alibi. Jake
Smith's UHtoniahmcnt at the OUBO with
which the thing had been accom
plished was unbounded , Ho threw u
dixgustod look towards J'itbludo , but
thu judge was nonplused , and didn't
seem to be interested with things in
Jako's vicinity.
There was u paiiBO befoiu Pitbludo
gave his charge , and when bo rose his
face \tiiH rather blank.
"Gontlomen of the jury , " ho said ,
"things has took a turn I didn't alto-
gcther expect' I don't know as
there's much to bo said. T suppose
you'yo got to o by the evidence , nn1
that don't nued any oxpluinin' . Kf
you can make out accordin' tor that ,
that Antonio Guuldo killed Jem
Blake , why , just recollect that's what
yor hero for. "
The jury filed out , and the expect'
ant audience occupied itself with to
bacco and whispered comments.
Juke Smith fidgeted about on his
box , nnd cast anxious glances through
thu open door , towards the clump nf
nopals v hero the jtity were delihoni-
ting.
Antonio talked and laulu ; ; > d in un
undertone with his counsel , and
Blftks's \\itlow s'U Kturirg at them
with compressed lips and strong e\-
l > re sion of determination coining into
her fnco.
It wasn't long before the jury tiled
in again , all seating themselves but
the spokesman , and Judge Pilblndo
rose , \\iping his forehead \tith his
slnrt-dlot've.
"Slrnightonnd it out , have yor ? ' ,
asked ho , nodding to the spokesman.
The man nodded slowly in return.
"NVnl , lo's have it tlivn. "
"Yor see , " said thu spokesman ,
"ith n hesitating and disappointed
air , "of yor Inuln't a corralled us with
stiekin' ter thu evidence , wo might a
done bolter , but accordin' lor that ,
Antonio wasn't thar when thu murder
was done , nil' if he war n't thar , hu
couldn't a done it , an' of hu didn't do
it , why then - of course bo's not
gmlty. "
Pitbhido didn't care to look any
body ; hostnroupat the rafters down
at the table now bore in particular ;
and then turned half-way towaids
Antonio.
"You kin go , " siid he , speakinu
with gioat deliberation , "but 1
wouldn't stay round hero too long. "
Tlnru uas a dead pause for a min
ute , and nobody moved
Jack Smith exploded n single ex
pressive word , which he iiad hold infer
for some time past , and Blako's wid
ow stood up.
"llnvoyoii got through , judge ? "
she ask d.
"And there's nothing more to bo
done ! '
"I'm afraid ther uint "
"And IIO'H fieo to gof"
V-a-n- . "
Atttoniii Gueldo rene with an inso
lent gun , and picked lip his hat.
The baby crowed , for it saw the
glitleiint ! thing again.
There was a sharp it-pot 1 Antonio
pitched fortMiul in a heap , and Blako's
widow stood with the pistol pressed
to her breast.
A line of thin blue smoke curled up
from thu miizxlo of thu weapon , nnd
foimed a hulo around the child's flaxen
head. Thu glittering tbinu' was quite
near thu little hands now , and they
took il ftoni the yielding grasp of the
mother.
Blaku'u widow -looked steadily at
the figure on thu Iloor it was quito
motionless then HIO ) turned , and
wont through thu wide pm < sigo ; opened
for her by the silent < mud , holding
the baby very tender'j , and the baby
cariying the pistol.
The child hiuu'hed wil'i ' delight ; it
had got itx shining plaything at last.
