We see by the Wichita Republican, that
the Oklahoma colonists are camped one
mile from Caldwell, and having plenty of
time for hunting have nm abundance OF
wild game on their bill Of fare. Squirrel,
quail, prairie chicken, rabbit, turkey, and
(cat tamonnt-not- -yet-cooked), is given as
the list OF game on the bill Of fare. The
soldiers camp is only about quarter of a
mile distant and they mingle will, and are
said to enjoy the society at the Oklahoma
camp very much.

Too Many Girls.

"Them girls will be the death of me-"
sighed Mr. Plug this morning, as he
came up the street.
"Why, thought they were very nice
girls" said sympathizing friend.
$50 they are; nice enough, but there's
too many of 'em, and they are too at
tractive," said the disconsolate patri-
arch. "Them three daughters of mine
were enough in all conscience, but now
my neice is up here from Boston, and it
seems as if the old scratch had got into
'em. l don't object to young folks hay
ing good time, and girls having beaux
and all that. but when it comes to hav-
ing sparkin' going on all over the place,
damme, it's too bad" said Mr.. Plug,
nnconsciously quoting from "Pinafore."
"Last night Sue had a fellcr counting
her at the front gate, and Julia had her
chap in the parlor, and when l got
ready to go to bed, bless me if Mollie

Cuss such nonsense! l couldn't get up

incident: Two young men in the west
ern part of this country, enamored of
the same young lady, who seemed to
look with equal favor on both, resolved
to settle their claim to her by fighting a
duel. At sunrise, with their seconds all
heavily armed with six-shootcrs, they
met on the bank of the creek. The
principals were placed, but the seconds
got together end proposed that instead
Of fighting they draw straws for the

HER SWEETHEART.

MY sweetheart has red.brown beard,
And bonnie eyes of blue,
OF no ten men is he afeard,
10 one wee maid he's true;
For stand lowly by his side,
A lily bya yew.
He took bullock by the head,
And bore the bullock down;
He threw John Plumber lump Of lead
From Gallow's hill to town;
And yet his arm around my waist
Is soft as satin gown.
You may have brighter eyes than mine,
And better cOlored hair;
Your hands may be more white and fine,
Your tightened waist more spare.
You charm all other men--I him:
want no charm you bear.

"But," faltered the guide, ''my horse

Wont he," queried the stranger,
with mock simplicity in his tone.
The guide heard sharp click, and
saw something CLEAN i'll his companions
right hand. He seemed to understand
perfectly, for he Immediately drove his
spurs into his horses Hanks and shot
ahead of his companion without another
word.
He no sooner reached his old position,
however, than the stranger saw him
give sharp turn to the right and then
disappear, as though he had vanished
through the foliage of the trees that
skirted the road.
He heard the clatter of his horse as
he galloped of. Without waiting an
other instant, he touched his horse light
ly with the rcins, gave him a prick with
the rowels, and off the noble animal
started like the wind in the wake of the
flying guide.
The strangers horse being much supc-
pior to the others, the race was a short
one, and terminated by the guide being
thrown nearly from his saddle by Il
heavy hand, which was laid upon his
bride, stopping him.
He turned in his seat, beheld the
strangers face, dark and frowning, and
trembled violently as he felt the smooth,
cold barrel of a pistol pressed against
his cheek.
"This cursed beast almost ran away
with me-" cried the guide, composing
himself as well as he could under the
circumstances.
"Yes, know" said his companion,
dryly, "but mark my words, young man,
if your horse plays such tricks again,
he'll be the means of seriously injuring
his masters health"

ROASTED To DEATH BY THE SUN.-Dr.
Schweinfurth in a lecture which he re-
Gently delivered at the Berlin Geograph
ical Society on the subject of his latest
explorations in Central Africa, gave his
hearers a thrilling account of the mode
in which capital punishment is inflicted
upon criminals by the Al Quadjis, small
tributary off shoot Vt the great and pow
erful Djour people. The malefactor con-
demned to die is bound to d post firmly
driven into the ground in some open
place where no trees afford shade, and
is there slowly roasted to death-not by
any arti6cin! means involving waste Of
fuel, but by the natural heat of the suns
rays as they reach our earth in its equa-
torial regions. To protract his sufferings
and to avert his too speedy end by sun
stroke, the ingenious Al-Quadjis cover
their erring compatriot's head with fresh
green leaves, which effectually shield his
brain from Phebus's darts. No such
protection is, however, accorded to his
body, which gradually dries up, shrinks
together, and ultimately becomes carbO-
nized. One chance of salvation is open
to the roasting man. while as yet he is
not completely "done to dea'h." 1t a
cloud pass between the sun and his place
of torment he is at once cast loose from
his post, and becomes the object of pop.
ular reverence, as mighty magician in
whose behalf the supernatural powers
have deigned directly to intervene. But

tration of justice on the days chosen for
public executions by the Al-Quadji au-
thorities at least, that appears to be DR..
