Music-I.Oying Cowboys.

Perhaps no concert troupe ever play
cd will, the same vcllcmcnce rs did
recently that one belonging to Thco-
dorc Thomas. While travelling through
New Mexico, no and his company were
on 81 special train, and rs they pulled
out of Coolidge, their Car was boarded
by gang Of cowboys, who with
drawn rcvolvcrs demanded music or
blood.
For q moment all was commotion.
Mr.. Thomas mustachc twitchcd nerv-
olsly rs he murmurcd under his
breath, "Mcin Got in himmcl." He
was soon brought to his senses, how
ever, by Il big cowboy who levclcd q
shooter ut his head and told him if he
didn't grind out some music pretty
sudden he would make him think
that y gattling gun had opened on
him.
Those who have seen Mr.. Thomas
lead Il orchestra and noticed how spry
he was about getting there, can i'm
asinc how the words of tho cowboy
acted upon him. llo looked from tho
mild eye of the cowboy into tho cold,
black, cherries depths of his shooter,
and then. without stopping to argue
the point, graspe,l q coupling pin in
his right hand and mounted the wood
box. In the meantime tho other cow
boys got the musicians corallcd up in
one corner, and scared them nearly to
death. Theodore announced that tho
entertainment would open with the
old and universal favoritc, "Home,
Sweet Home" but they had hardly
got started when tho cowboy, who
was looking after Mr.. Thomas gave q
war whoop that caused the hair of tho
bull fiddler to turn as white as the
fleece Of that proverbial piece of NUT
ton that once upon a time accompanied
Mary to school.
Theodore ceased pounding the air
with his coupling pin, and asked tho
cowboy what was eating him. The
cowboy politely informed the great
leader that they didn't want any Sum
day-school music. but something soul
stirring. something quick and devillsh,
as it were. Theodore seemed to
grasp his meaning, and asked him
what tune he preferred. This was left
to the gang to decide. and they came

music rendered with such "gct-there-

covered with a pop, and each one cx-
pected that the next moment would bc
his last. When the piece was finished
the cowboys lowered there weapons,
and the Ugh that went up from those
musicians made tho windows rattle.
The head cowboy then asked to be
presented to Nine. Materna, and after
the Introduction was over, she was in

privcd of his health. He may sacri.
tlcc it himself. just us hc may sacrifice
his wealth, for tho benefit OF his fell
low-mcn. But no one can take it from
him. IL there were any way of do
ing SO there would be but one result.
No man would deny himself or take
any pains whatever to acquire or pre-
serve this health. only for tho sake of
being obliged to give it up to some
person. too luxurious or too lazy to
acquire it for himself.
The same IS true of wealth. No
man would accumulate wealth IL no
knew it would be conliscatcd by
the self indulgent or the lazy tho
moment he had got enough of it to
tempt them to take it from him. This
is tho fatal defect of oil socialist and
communist schemes. III put in prac-
ticc. men would cease to acquire
wealth and the civilization would de-
generate into savagcry.
In some conditions men arc forced
to give up their wealth to other poo.
pie. Slaves have to do it. Heavily
taxed people have to do it. What is
the result? Slaves and the heavily
taxed cease to produce much more
than enough to keep themselves alive,
and the races or nations which long
suffer such state of things become
impoverished and go to decay.
There is one particular. however, in
which health seems to, but really does
not. differ from wealth. Ii it were
possible for Il shrcwd and cunning
man to obtain health from other peo-
pie. leaving them sick and feeble, he
would then he like the SPECTATOR or
gambler who obtains property from
others without productive labor. But
a man who should get health in this
way would add nothing to tho COM
mon stock of health. Hc would
merely transfer it from other people to
himself. This. however, would be an
unequal distribution, not an accumu-
lation of health. So the gains of
gambler or spcculator are not an ac-
emulation Of wealth but an UNEQUAL
distribution of property.
Such transfers add no moro to tho
general wealth of the country than
transfers of health would add to Its
general health. But any man who by
sclf-denial or labor accumulatcs either
health or wealth is not only entitled to
what he acquires, but his acquisition
is positive addition to both tho
health aud tho wealth OF tho world
