Cowboys on a Spree.

A few nights ago baud of cowboys
put up a red light at one of the railroad
stations east of Shoshoae, which, of
course, caused the engineer to stop the
passenger train. Before it came TO a
stand still they mounted the locomo-
tive and train and invited brass band
aboard to play piece. The leader re-
fused, when one of the "toughs, point
ing six-sheoter at him, said, Please
do" which was as courteously accepted
After the music was played and thanks

were quite interesting, and the partici-
pants we're frequently applauded fol
sound argument and ready wit. The
judges decided in favor of the affima-
tive.
