1t Surprised the Yankee.

The stranger from Massachusetts
who entered little cowboy town in
Texas at the close of an intensely warm
day recently wore high silk hat OF
the latest fashion. He strobe down
Main street with a sweet smile playing
over his fair countenance, and his came
cutting the air like the rapier Of a
French duelist. He stopped half way
down the street to watch the gambols
of herd of Texas steers. While thus
engaged gang of cowboys who were
passing on the opposite side of the
street caught sight Of the high hat.
"Hello," said one of the beef-teas-
ers, 'there's q dude" s,.at
"Yes,' replied q companion, land
I'll bet drinks for the crowd that Team
put hole through the dicer at the first
shot"
The wager was taken, and as cow
boy No. drew his fifteen-inch revolt
yer and aimed it at the hat there was
an ominous silence, and the young
man from Massachusetts, still gazed
with interest at the antics Of the cattle.
'.Bang! zipP' The wager was won
Tho bullet made huge aperture
through the polished hat, while the
wearer, who had read much of Texas
desperation and murderers, dashed
away like a runaway horse. He
thought the Texans were shooting to
kill. '''' z's-''
Hi, there. stranger! Hold oni
Stop!'' yelled the cowboys, and fear
ing volley from behind the Yankee
halted and threw up his hands. As
the cowboys advanced the one who had
made the successful shot remarked, ito

"What'd you run forP ! won the
bet, and as sure as hi, partner,
you're in on this round of drinks,

The coffin was found intact, and when opened
Miss Newman's body was found laid out as
1t was at the time of the burial. All the
reports Of this curious sensation have placed
the burial of Miss Newman in the little
North Egremont cemetery in December,
1878. No girl died at Egremont during the
last four months of that year, nor was one
buried in the town in that year. Miss New
man died and was buried in December, 1879.
These facts :prove that no body was taken
from a grave in the town at the time stated.
