The Guest Without wedding Garment

The Guest Without Wedding Garment.
from the Laramie Boomerang.l
It came to pass that O certain rail
road man sent forth his servants to call
them that were hidden to the wedding,
and they would not come.
Again he sent forth other servants,
saying, behold, 1 have killed the old
hen and prepared the wedding dinner
and opened keg of nails and all
things are ready for the blowout.
But they made hight of it and went
their ways, one to his farm, another to
hls drug store, and another to his grist-
mill and another took the servants and
treated them spitefully, and put tin
ear on them, and frescoed them with
Michael Angelo eggs.
Bat when the railroad king heard of
1t he bounced the entire outfit and shut
off their passes and raised their freight
tariff and busted them up in their busi-
ness and smote them sore on the gable
end OF their intellects and made it red
hot foi: them.
Then he said unto his servants. the
wedding is ready, but they which are
hidden are not worthy.
Go ye, therefore, down the side.
track and into the round-house and the
water-tank and the cabooses and the
gravel-trains and gather together as
many as We shall find and tell them to
come over to the wedding feast and fill
themselves up.
And the servants went forth and
rounded up as many as they could find,
both good and bad, and bade them to
the feast.
And when the King went into the re-
ceptiOn room he found there man who
had not on a spike tail coat and low
necked shoes and clocked socks.
And he said to him: "Pardner, how
cometh it that thou art here without
any stOre-clothes on, and wearing in
stead linen duster and jim-crow raj
ment generally"
And the man was at first speechless,
but he answered yet again:
ooh. railroad king! live forever. I
know that [ am here without a wedding
garment; but behold, I am @ conductor
on thy line, and [ have reformed, and
have ceased to knock down; and be-
hold thy servant is poor, and he is try
ing to live on his salary"
And the king was wroth, and told the
usher to gather him in and take him by
the slack Of his raiment and to cast him
over the outer wall, and there was weep
ing and gnashing of teeth.
And, while the wedding guests made
merry and whooped it up, the man who
was cast out did steal around and be-
come solid with the cook, and filled
himself up with the wedding feast on
the sly.
And it came to pass that when he had
eaten of the fatted calf and the wedding
cake, and absorbed all the champagne
that he could carry away, he crawled
into the NOW and slept till the cock
crew.
And when the morning was come, he
journeyed over the railroad track to-
ward Salt Lake; for behold he was a

Serpents. Tigers and Leopards.

Some one in France has followed UP
the recent statistics concerning wild
beasts and snakes in India, with further
particulars. He says that as many as
10000 deaths occur annually in India
from snake-bites, and that since 1870
from 100000 to 100000 persons have
perished in this way. India possesses
more deadly snakes than any other
country. In 1880 212,776 serpents of
all kinds were destroyed. and rewards,
amounting in all to II, 663 rupees, were
paid to their destroyers. In 1881 wild
beasts caused the death of 2,757 per-
sons, as against 2,810 in 1880, and the
number of animals killed by them is
enormous. Leopards are, he thinks,
the farmers worst foes, and tigers rank
next, but the wolves are but little less
destructive. In 1881 1,557 tigers and
1897 leopards were killed.
