 The Rev. Dr. E. w. Gunsaulus had an interesting experience out in Aci. zona last summer. says the Chicago Newa It will bear narrating. I seems that friend in London. aware Of the reverend gentlemaD's fondness 1 for vivid color. sent Dr. Gunsaulus bright red necktie. There is no other red neck,is In the world quite 90 red us . British red necktie. When Dr. Gunsaulus clapped his eyes on that red necktie he was. dazzled by its terrific splendor. As quickly as hs could he put it away. "I must not wear it." said he to himself; ''it is too wicked for this part Of the world. will reserve it for Arizona" It is true that Dr. Gunsaulus had 165 acres of wheat out in Arizona that needed looking after. but it is moro than likely that an ambition to wear that new, splendid red uecktie inspir. ed ill Dr. Gunsaulus ceaseless yearn. ing to go West. At any rate he vent accompa@red by his son, a little fellow of 10 or h years of age.
 Now it happened that pr. Gunsaulus travelled on free pass.
 This free pass worked all right until Dr. Gunsaulus struck the Santa Fe country. It was then that a course. unfeeling, onc-eyed conductor came through tho train collecting tickets al the point of murderous looking horse pistol He had been sheriff of . county in New Mexico and was thing of blood.
 "Tickets!" demanded this fierce monster.
 Dr. Gunsaulus mildly produced his free pass. The conductor read tho free pass. The unhallowed fire of scepticism illumined his cyclopean optic.
 "Wats yer namep" asked the con- ductor.
 "The Rev. F. W. Guasaulus." answered the holy man.
 The conductor took as rapid view of Dr. Gunsauus as his one eye would admit of.
 No. yer don'tr exclaimed tho con- ducto-. brutally. Yer don't play that game c0 mel Yer no preacher"
 'Inased l am, and very god preaek,r. too," remonstrated Dr. Gunsar'us
 .CoMe, now" said the conductor, '.lt's 10 use of yer tryin' to como any monkey business with me; reckon ! know a dominy when sec him. Yer'3 have 10 put up yer good money or get off' r she train!'
 There seemed to be no alternative. Dr. Gunsaulus looked out of the car winfcw; it would never do for him to be ss, down in that desert of cac,uscs and prairie dogs.
 No dominy ever wore . necl,tis like that" said tho conductor. "Yer'u havs 10 put up tho stud or get oH'n tho train"
 Dr Gunsaulus did put up, but not until he had secured receipt therc' for from the one-cyed sceptic. Bui about hundred miles farther dowa the r.ad the Mayor Of Santa Fe board. ed the train. and he was happily able to identify Dr. Gunsaulns as being in. deed entitled to all tho pcrqaisites ana courtesies involved in and entziied by that free pass So tho one. eyed oon- ductor disgorged the money and mads an anology as best he could.
