4 good story colaes To us from our neishbor-
ing town. B.ookyi,!t. Some time ago. Texan
purchased a stock ranch up in Lincoln county.
Previous to this he and his wife boarded At
the hotel in Brookyile. and he left her there
until be could yu: things III shape q: the ranch.
A few days ago. lac sent by man with q lum-
be- wagon, for her to come up. The man
stated the case to the landlord, when he WAS
informed that as the husband owed him little
bill. she could not 70 until the amour. wIs
settled After the man was gone, the landlord
went to the lady and told her that her husband
had sent tor her. but rs ne was in debt TO him
for small amount for her board, he thought
il bes: she should not go. when she answered
Linn wi:h "Why. sir. have the money 10 pay
you." We never before heard Of woman be-
ing retained as baggage for the paymcn: Of u
board bill.
