THE TANNING OF A TERROR.

st. Louis Globe Democrat.
II once saw the tables nicely
turned on a professional terror"
said Richard +. Hill at the South
ern. During the Black Hills ex-
citement l spent few days at
Cheyenne. Lounging around the
saloons was big whiskered bully
known. as Pocahontas Smith. He
appeared to be always thirsting for
blood, but forbore to give offense to
any of fine numerous killers al
ways plentiful in such places.
One day a green, gawky lad from
Indiana struck the town. He was
the most harmless looking tender
foot that ever furnished cheap
fame for a professional bad man.
Although more than 20 years old,
he seemed never to have been free
from his mothers apron string.
Pocahontas picked him up at once.
There was large crowd in front
of the leading saloon when the
Hoosier came stumbling by. Poca-
hontas quizzed him awhile, then
ordered him to dance. The young
ster protested that be did not know
how, but his tormentor offered to
teach hirn. He did SO by shooting
all around his feet. The Hoosier
danced until Pocahontas had
emptied his pistol, then walked up
to him and inquired: Say, mister,
what do I get for this exhibition
As he put the question he twined
one brawny hand in the big beard
and drew the other back like rail.
makers maui. Il think you've
had about $50 worth Of fun with
me- said the dancer, as he gave
the beard another twist that
brought the terror to his knees
with howl of pain. Pocahontas
forked over a 500 gold piece, and
that night stole a mule and left
town.
