How = Wyoming Girl Welcomed a Blood
Thirsty Ex-Lover.
The tide has turned at last. A young
man out in Arizona armed himself with
revolver and sailed forth to shoot
young woman who had declined the
honor of his hand. But she was pre-
pared for him. She read the papers
and had frequently read OF shootings
under like circumstances. She didn't
refuse him without taking into account
all the consequences that it might in
volve, and she quietly resolved that no
discarded lover should get the drop on
her. When the young man arrived at
the house full Of his deadly mission, he
found the fair but cruel one doing the
weeks ironing. She didn't seem to
suspect any thing, and he anticipated
an easy task in preparing her for the
coroner's jury but when he casually
reached toward his hip pocket with the
remark that her time had come, she
said she guessed not, and knocked him
down with the flat-iron, breaking his
nose and loosening all his front teeth.
Then with equal cheerfulness and prod
igality she distributed the boiling con-
tents of tea-kettle about his person
as he lay against the wood box, and
when the family rushed into the kitch-
en- to see what was the matter they
found her industriously hopping the
floor with the rejected one. The next
lime he proposes to some Gertrude OF
Wyoming and is refused he will prob
able conclude that that settles it and
