grinned. We'll, l have,' SEE Jim, and he
climbed on the by-shackle.

to burst, and he heard it, and it made him
wild; he wuz locoed: and he rode the thing
for all he knew; but he rode it for a bronco
and not machine He quirted it, he cussed
it, and pulled up his head; and every time
we thought he was gone he'd ketch his bal
ance and stick. Finally he came to little
gully, and he tried to spur ito make it

Then it showed out how the little dude
man had stacked the cards on him, for
have never misdoubted that he had wound
up something to go off in that little colt
hind wheel at the right time; and when it
seen he WIZ down and tangled so he could
not git up, it riz up and pounded him like a
dog.
Jim mustn't had moro pulky than 1
thought, for he called out to US real pitiful
to come and pull that thing often MIN, or it
would kill hin; and when we did he limped
off home without word.
Gas for that little dude man, he offered
to teach us all how to ride the machine-a
thing we didn't care for-and he laughed
till the lid fell often his spilled eye; and he
looked more like human bein' than l ever
