gun beneath the sidewalk near that estab-
lishment. After the man left the gun was
secured. and proved to be the one stolen
from Mr.. Whittier's wagon.

The Warner sun. (Warner, Brown Co., Dakota [S.D.]) 1885-1???, 1886-07-30

An English gentleman having a
somewhat small piece OF land about his
residence considered for some time
whether he would plant it in ornament
al or fruit trees. He desired to have a
beautiful and attractive place. He also
desired to have fine, fresh fruit. While
he was debating in. his mind whether
he would derive the most enjoyment
by gratifying his sense Of sight or taste,
the thought occurred to him that he
might do both. He accordingly con-
suited several nurscrymen, landscape
gardeners, and frIitraisers, and planted
his grounds to trees that ware at once
ornamental and useful. He selected
varieties of trees that had fine shapes,
produced abundant and beautiful fcli-
age. and which yielded blossoms and
luscious fruits. His grounds soon be-
came noted for their beauty and were
visited by many persons, most of whom
expressed the opinion that they pre-
sented much better appearance than
most grounds that had been planted
solely for the purpose of rendering
them pleasing to the sight. The owner
also secured q succession Of flowers
during the summer and supply Of
fine fruit during the fall and winter
1t Is certain that several Of our fruit
trees are quite as ornamental as many
that are obtained at iarge cost. Dlanted

Reading a Dime Novel.

A chap of boot-black who had made
his stake for the day sat down in the
shade on the Postoffice steps the other
day and pulled dime novel from his
pocket with grin of satisfaction. 1t was
novel about a terrible Western desper-
ado, who was pictured on the cover
with his hands full of reviewers and his
mouth filled with bowie-knives. The
boy was thrilled by the sight of 3
wood cut and he made haste to bagfn
his reading Heread only half a page,
holding the book in his left hand, when
he suddenly clenched his right fist. The
medicine was beginning to work.
He read to the bottom of the page
and look of exuitation crept over his
face. The hero had probably killed a
couple of men and barricaded himself
in q saloon.
During the reading Of the next page
the boy passed from perfect satisfaction
to the deepest anxiety, and he couldn't
keep his feet still. The was being hero
surrounded by the townspeople, who
meant to send up the mercury for him.
Pagc third was so exciting that the
boy began TO breathe hard and grow
pale and chew on his quid cf gum for
all that he was worth. The hero was
probably loading up his weapon, filing
up with benzine, and getting ready to-
perish or die. J
Page fourth was screamer. The
boy got up and sat down three different
times, and half way down the page he
swallowed his quid slick and clean, At
the end Of the page it was painfully
evident that his collar-band choked
him, for his neck was growing very
red.
Page five related how the hero shot
down four or five men and made a dash
! out Of the town, tiriag over bis Shout
ders as he ran. The boy slapped his
leg and grinned as if he had found i
dollar.
Being afraid that the hero would stub
his toe and be overtaken, the boy skip.
ped the next seven or eight pages and
caught the hero at bay in the presenca
I-of dozen Indians. His eyes began ia
bulge ont and the sweat to appear. and
it was evident that he expected the fur
to fly.
The next page was full Of bullets and
warwhoops The boy held up his right
arm as if sighting revolver, lodged
three arrows and tomahawk. and
was just painting for breath when the
Indians, or as many of them as were
left alive, kindly consented to with.
draw and 60 off after some other sort
of mutton.
Again the boy turned over half
dozen leaves, and as he settled down
again he gave start of surprise. The
hero had just leaped off a 200-foot prec-
ipice and landed safely on his cheek.
Then came look of proud satifaction
as the desperate knitted couble OF
grizzlies and kicked a panther into In
sensibility.
The next page was corker. 1t war
made up of avalanches, cyclones, rattle
snakes, mountain lions, redskins, road.

and after suppressing three yells, four
groans, and seven shivers of horror.
