Death Through A Tarantula

One of the quickest aud most complete and justifiable killings that ever I savv carue about through a tarántula. It was at a niine camp, and the camp bully had a tarántula impaled on a stick. A man newly arrived from the east stood gazing, fascinated with horror, at the sqnirming reptile, working its black faugs in the effort to reach soinething that it could fasten them into. Suddenly, without warniug, the bully thrust the tarántula straight into the tenderfoot's face. His whiskers saved him from the fangs, but he let out a yell as il he had actnally been bitten and juruped back, I fully believe, teu feet Theo, as the fellow catne poking the tarántula toward him again, the tenderfoot drew his revolver and turned loose on his tormeutor. His first shot would have been enough, as it weut straight through the fellow's body, but the tenderfoot had his exciteruent to work off, and he never stopped shooting until his revolver had been emptied and the man with the tarántula was a sieve. "Served him right, " was the verdict of the coroner's jury, and the case uever weDt to court f or trial. -
