GIVE IT UP.-With this issue Of the
Kicker We cease the weather forecasts
which we have been Publishing as fore
casted from our own observatory for the
last six weeks. While we have had won
derful luck in hitting the weather for three
and four days ahead, our local subscribers
have had no interest in it and have dis
couraged our enterprise This arises from
the fact that no one here cares cast-irOn
cent what the weather Is. If fair, they
20 out and shoot jackass rabbits, and run
horses. If foul, they gather in the bar
rooms and drink whisky and play seven
up. The least that concerns them is what
the weather is going to be on the morrow,
and We don't propose to educate them up
to feel anxious about it.

PERHAPS IT WAS. Last week num-
Der of gentlemen organized what they
called THE Dsbonaire Literary Society"
and secured q room over Plum's grocery
for their weekly place of meeting. There
was q good deal of chuckling and grin
ming around town when it was learned
that we had been deliberately snubbed by
the aforesaid society. Many friends called
to tender their sympathies and advice, but
We did not need any consolation.
Where is that society to-day? Echo an
swers: "Where?" We simply telegraphed
to Omaha, Denver, Lincoln, Virginia City
and two or three other towns that such a
person, wanted for horse stealing, barn
burning OF bigamy, was here, and within
four days the Dictionaries were wearing
bracelets. Perhaps il was a good idea 10
snub as. Perhaps some other society will
try it on

We extract the following from the last
issue of the arizona Kicker.
HAD TO Do IT.-That gander-shanked
living skeleton who edits that mOrtgaged
sheet down on Blackjack avenue is out
with a TRADE against us for shooting Sioux
Jim last week. He is seeking to get up q
public feeling against us, although he very
we'll knows that we were fully exOnerated
by the corners jury.
Sioux Jim, who was q half-breed, was
fighting drunk. He was looking for a vic
tim when he met us on Apache avenue.
He drew his knife with the purpose Of
carving our anatomy to strings, but before
he could proceed we pulled our gun and
sent six red-hot bullets into his carcass.
He was the third man We have had to kill
this fall in defense of our own life, and as
We have had to pay al the burial expenses
in each case no man can claim that we
have shot for fun. 1t cost Us $50 cold
cash to plant Jim in decent shape, and no
one would have given $40 for him when
alive.

halters and rescued them. Barbados
were then put up, and the wolves were
left to their CORY prey. Sunday morn
ing they were growing over the rib
bones, and it was resolved to leave them
undisturbed until Monday. II went
down." said our artist, about
1 o'clock and gave timorous tap
at the stage door, uncertain
whether any of the wild wolves of the
forest were still providing about in
search OF flesh. Peering through the
bars in the dim light could just see the
half eaten carcass of poor Shrewsbury,
the dead horse, lying on his side. The
wolves passed to and fro shortly and
swiftly, now and then stopping to take
mouthful, or to make avicious snap at
each other. At the end of the stalls were
the two cages out of which the wolves
had escaped; the straw was Uttered with
fragments of theatrical properties, such
as hats and policemen's truncheons.
The three doors had been barricaded, so
the eight wicked wolves. The problem
now was to drive the bruteS into their
cages. This was effected by Alpine
Charlie and two assistants armed with
lion poles. For an hour the floor of the
stable was converted into hunting
ground. One man stood on one OF the
cages. hidden by boards, holding the drop
bars in his hand, ready to let them go
when the prey was secured. Charlie
and the other drove the beasts into his
corner and that. stirring them up with
long pole, until at last all the wolves
were caught but one little fellow who
held out to the last, out, of course, wa
conquered in the end. Mr.. Sanger told
me that the wolves will be put in train
ing and that he will publicly present a
check of 500 to Alpine Charlie for his
pluck.

An Editors Oxer-Caution.

Dolgeville On. " Banner.
Many people make mistakes and lose
a lot by being too suspicious, too eau
tious. We remember the last time we
visited New York city-with which
place nobody else in Dolgeville is prob
ably so familiar. A man came up to us,
as we stood on our hotel steps after tax
ing noontime snack at DelmOnico's,
and says he to u.s. 1.-THE editor of
the Backwoodsman's Banner, l pre-
sume?' We had the old bunco
game down fine, and. looking the
man squarely in the eyes, we
replied: "You presume too much, sir.
We are not the editor" (This was un-
true, but justifable under the circum-
stances.) 81 beg your PARDON" he said,
touching his hat politely; II merely
wished to tender you ticket to the
dinner of the Press club this evening""
He felt hurt and so did we. He had
been received with unnecessary sus-
picion and we had missed good dinner.
We merely mention this incident as
reminder to those who are always say
ing "GO slow!' that it is not always
wise to go too slowly. We must risk
something if we would be truly great.

Starting a Balky Horse.

ROcneSter Democrat.
Friday afternoon young man drove
up East Main street on the street car
tracks. He had a one-horse wagon and
a load of hemlock slabs. When he was
about half way up East Main street hill
his horse balked.- There was row of
street cars behind him which reached
to the Four Corners in few minutes,
and every driver was leaning out from
his platform and yelling more OF less
emphatically at the young man to start
his horse.
The young man climbed down from
the wagon and tried to start the horse.
He coaxed, swore, tried to lead and
then to push the horse along, but all to
no purpose. The animal wanted a va
cation and wanted it right away.
Meanwhile crowd had collected on
the sidewalk and yelled: E3H
"Twist his tail!''
"Build fire under himn'
! 'Put pepper in his noseP'
''Stick pin in himW
"Club him!"
sect wisp of hay and lead himw
stitch team to himW
'Unharness him"
''Blow smoke in his ears!'
By this time the street car drivers
were frantic, but the horse did not
seem to care. He never moved.
Finally an old farmer came down the
walk, stopped, saw what was the mat
ter, and went out to where the horse
stood. He reached up to the horses
head and stuck his fingers down in one
of the horses ears.
The effect was instantaneous. The
beast started up instantly, the street
cars moved on again, and the old farmer
said as he came back to the walk:
THAT alters fetches 'em, b'gosh."
