NEVADA COWBOYS.

In Nevada, writes a correspondent.
the cowboys have a most convincing
way of settling little difficulties which
arise among themselves. Might, ID
right, and big fist rules the day. But
a short time ago, saw this verified to
my utter satisfaction.
A number of the "boys" were in town
having what they clall 'big blow in"
A crowd was attracted to the east end
of the saloon (their rendezvous by an
unusually heated discussion, which oc-
Cured soon after the boys" had got
something" and this something"
had begun to tickle 'em into activity.
When 1 re lched the spot, 1 found
two cowboys encirc1ed by clamorous
crowd of dusty miners, staggering cow
boys and grizzly wool herderS, who
loudly cheered the combatants.
The attacking hero was huge fellow
half clothed in leather. and with de-
cidedIy aggressive expression and de-
pertinent. The other was tall and had
very long and uncommo only thin legs,
and had reticent, l-wish-I-were-
home-ear-marking- some neighbours
stray-cattle look on his face.
One glance would satisfy any one
that should the big man get e left
handler in on Thin Legs, all would be
up with him, for those broomstick legs,
being of retired mould, would be
knocked moon high, and bets would
stand five to one that they blew away.
You're horssthief. You've
sneaked off with a Chinaman's cattle,
branded and whiteWashed 'em; that's
what you've DONE" said the big man,
as he shook his fist threateningly al the
others thin legs.
"Now, Charley, you know 1 hain't
done no such thing. Can you prove it,
Charley?' whined' Thin Legs remon-
stratingly.
What" cried Big Charley fercely.

pole legs, but happily it fell short;

Turning to the crowd in an appealing
manner, he continued, He disputed

mysterious move, come up and

Poor Thin Legs had only time to cast
