A "GalIOws., Trick.

Yesterday morning the denizensof Market Place
and Il host of bucolcal individuals, were nor
ri6ed to see swinging from the cross beam OF the
Nv hat is IT, something that might nave Deen
victim of Kuklux violence, stark and stili, as II
swung to and fro in the morning breeze, especial
ly as the ominous cabalistic characters *. *.
K ;" were pinned on the victims garments. The
knot was artistically tied on the side of the
neck. showing that if Jack Ketchl himself had
not formed the fatal moose, 1t was the work OF
an apt scholar.
Hardened offenders against the Ordinances
trembled in their boots, and those who had moi
those pedal coverings Immediately supplied
themselves so as to be equal to their more fortu.
! nate colleagues, being convinced that summary
executions had commenced, and fearing q SINH
lar fate. No one had missed a member from.the
family circle, and there was no vacant chair
that any body knew of outside of the furniture
stores and curiosity was rife as to who the gallows
bird could be that had flown so high. No sus-
picion ia attached to the Sheriff, as he had gone
the day before to Nashville with all the prison
ers who deserved hanging.
But the curiosity of the crowd could no longer
be contained, and daring trapeze performer
scaled the giddy hight and with a sharp knife
severed the cord attached to the beam and the
symbol of the ghostly Khan fell with a thud to
the ground. A groan of horror didn't break
from the bystanders, but instead shouts of bois-
ferrous laughter Instead of CHASTITY corpse
with tongue and eye balls protruding, was seen
a harmless efigy which had been placed in po-
stion ysorne of the boys for a lark, and those
who rose with that early bird, like Daniel in the
lions den, saw the show for nothing. Perhaps
it isn't necessary, but we may rs well state that
the coroner didn't think it worth while to hold
an inquest and in consequence the perpetrators
of the deed are unknown and at large at tie
time of this writing. Twas q fgallus' trick.
