To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Secreting himself back of the wagon seat under the wood the officer ordered the old man to drive to the tav- ern and stop at the water trough in front of the bar room. As the horses pulled up to the watering place, the sheriff threw up his gun, covering the unsuspecting chief, and a running fight ensued. Vasquez, being wounded by the first shot, failed to reach his horse and went behind the bars for the rest of his natural life. It has been said that Vasquez was a man of no great nerve ; I chal...lenge that statement. He proved in his last mo- ments that such assertions were un- founded, for when the sheriff on duty clumsily adjusted the noose, Vasquez told him that the knot was poorly made and he readjusted, with his own hands, the noose upon the rope that swung him into eternity. THE PROSPECTOR A slowly-moving speck against the dull, Forsaken, lonesome hills of desert gray A dream! A strike! A surge of youthful hope! The man and burro thread a pathless way. The miner daily moves from camp to claim, And daily picks and pans and scans the dust, As shuttles move when threadless, weaving not Thus fades his gainless life and fails his crust.
