A good story is told Of how he per-

Cody in the log cabin where he held his

tin the knet. There were forms OF nearly
every transaction OF lite, but he ialiec 10

slammed the book down and observed 10
the parties:
" two fellers join hands" and the
"two fellers did so.
Then he said to the groom: "Are you
willing to take this woman to be your
lawful welded wife, to love her, honor
her, and obey herr
"You bet YOU butes," was the response
of the bashiul hsir-lifter.
"And you, Miss, are you WILING 10
take this here man to be your welded
husband, to love him, honor him, and
support him.
She giggled, and nodded in the affirm

"See mere, Miss, we've got to hsvs this
thin, on the dead square, and we can t
marry folks by halves in this country

This time the lady responded bravery
YES, Sir. l will"
This satisfied his honor, and ne re-
marked, THAT settles it. Now look
here, YOU two: you are man and wlie,
and whoever Bill Cody and God Al

"And now" added Bill, diets take

A dusty.looking cloud in the north

hurried along to escape the impending storm.
More umbrellas were borrowed in fifteen min

Then the storm broke. A wind swept along
the streets rattling signs and raising pillows
of dust. The air was so thick with dust that
one could hardly sec across the street. The
roadways were swept clean. 1t was n wonder
where all the dust went, hut a good portion Of

Everybody wore their hats over their eyes.
II must have been a pleasure to Marshal
Douglass, If he was around, to observe this.
After the dust came a heavy rain shower,
which ended the programme. II fell in big,
refreshing drops, and cooled the sultry at
mospherc. The wind while IL blew was strong,
but no serious damage is reported.
Weather sharpers say that this Is the same
storm which has been making a tour Of the
country, beginning In California and paying
flying visits to the cities along the Pacific rail
road, and that the dust that came with It was
