Col. Granniss made the trip through
the southern country here just after
the road had been opened. The fes
tive cowboy had just begun to enjoy
the sport Of running the train in the
rough region, and at one of the sta
tions a formidable specimen of thai
tough human boarded the cars. The
conductor laid his hand on the COW
boys shoulder and said: "Ticket
please" The cowboy turned in tru,
cowboy style, pulled out his revolver
and pointed it at the conductor.
"Here's my ticket"
The conductor walked on and
punched everybody's else's coupon
Then he disappeared. The little in
cident had been forgotten by almost
everybody on the car. The cowboy
was in quiescent state and the Cal
was still when the conductor came in
He walked leisurely up the aisle and
suddenly stopped before the cowboy
placed a great big knife dangerously
contiguous to his vital part and said
quietly:
"Lemme see that ticket again"
The cowboy paid his fare.-San
Francisco Chronicle.

The Colonies Tarantula.

"I'm telling you !" said the col.

med hat to push his fingers through
bis hair-"I'm a-telling you that the
tarantula of Texas is no slouch. He's
just about the wickedest, ugliest, dog
goned critter that was ever set up on
crooked legs, and the man who says
he isn't afraid of 'em is liar from
east to west, and 1 know it While
their pizen is no worse than rattle
snakes, the idea of being keeled over
by sich a horrid-looking critter half
kills you to start with"
"Were you ever bitten, colonel ?"
"Never, but ] got it worse than be-
ing bitten. Dog-gone my buttons,
but when think Of it I lose q foot in
length and get a mouth as dry as last
years cotton"
"What was iti"
"Well, one night last summer /
camped down after hard days ride
and slept the sleep Of the just. When
l opened my eyes in the morning !
was lying on the broad Of my back,
head well up on the saddle, and the
blanket pulled up to my chin. Right
on my breast was one of the biggest,
ugliest tarantulas ever produced. He
was evidently waiting for me to wake
up. for as soon as / opened my eyes
he took walk"
Walked away, ehi"
"No, sir He walked upwards and
began to caress my chin. Then he
began to saunter up my cheek and
inspected my hat, stopping every now
and then as if he had found good
place to sting. In two minutes I was
sweating like horse after ten mile
gallop, and was even too scared to
pray. I know I tried to, and I'll be
hanged if | didn't get off paragraph

Sand the tarantula finally left y

about 10 o'clock, I believe. Mean
while he was promenading up and
down and enjoying the sunshine and
sizing me up. 1 kept my eyes shut
most of the time, but / could trace his
movements by the sense of feeling.
About 8 o'clock second spider put
in an appearance and begged the hon
or of knifng me, but my old friend
objected and they had lively set-to
on my stomach. The newcomer was
knocked out in the third round and
went off for repairs"
"And you didn't spring up and
dash the tarantula aside Z"
Ibid you ever spring out of the
way of a bullet, young man' l could
not have gathered myself before he'd
have popped it to me full figures. No,
sir. / just laid thar and waited for
him to get tired and 60. He finally
went, but couldn't say how far, and
l hadn't moved finger when couple
of cowboys rode up. Then I Jumped
clear of the blanket and told my story,
but they wouldn't believe it,"
"They wouldn'tP
"No, sir; but while I was shooting
one of them the other lifted my blank

was hidden away, stung his hand and
he died in an hour. Had to have an
inquest and bury both Of 'em at my
