A Mexican Shot at Plnos Altos

Plnos Altos was the scene Of a lively
chase last Tuesday in which a winchester
rife played an important part. A Mexi-
can went into Joe Williams saloon and
taking a drink Of water from a dipper,
threw the same down on the floor, instead
OF returning 1t TO the bucket whore he
found it. Jimmy Blair, tho bar tender,
demurred to the proceeding and ordered
the man to pick it up, which he at first
declined to do, but finally consented
This enraged the Mexican, who, after
making some pretty harsh threats went
out and armed himself with a six shoot

upon Blair coming out. This Blair refus-
ed to do. The constable was called IN
for projection, but being afraid to arrest
the man, deputized BLAIR and Jo carp to
do the job Tor him. They armed them
selves with winchestars and started 10
pursuit Of the Mexican, who had learned
OF their intentions and fed the town. A
hot chase ensued in which the Mexican
sustained serious injuries. Blair fred

The Gordon, Nebraska, Journal thus
tells how the suckers of that town were
taken in recently. "a slick tongued
fellow was in Gordon the week before
the county fair, with huge lot Of
samples, taking orders for suits from
the we'll known firm of Wannamaker &
Brown. He carried fine line of
samples and his prices were way down.
His plan was to take orders and collect
81 cash on each order taken, to prepay
express charge, the balance to be col
lected on delivery of goods. He took
about thirty orders in Gordon, collect
ing about $50 in cash. Up to date no
one has received any suits and the
whereabouts of the agent are unknown.
A letter from Wannamaker g. Brown
states that they are not acquainted
with the gentleman. A whole lot of
fellows in town are out two dollars and
the weather is trifle chilly. Be patient
boys, the goods may come yet, and if
they do not, some other fellow will un-
doubtedly come along looking for suck
ers. When you meet stranger who
wants cash in advance on any deal he
makes with you, or even wants your
name to receipt or contract you are
chump if you accede to his demands"

College and City Athletes Play Foot Ball.
College Win.

The long expected game of foot ball
between the college eleven and the
eleven composed of athletes of the city
outside the college was played ON the
college grounds Saturday afternoon.
The team had been coached by Mccoy
who has been schooled in the game in
the shadow of the University of Penn
sylvania buildings and with the "beef"
of its makeup presented strong line
to their opponents. Prof. Corning,
who was a member of the Baker uni
versity team, the champions of the west
last year, coached the college men, and
the results of his work were plainly
visible in the game. The struggle be-
gan at five minutes to four o'clock with
twenty-five minute halves, F. E. Robin
son acting as referee and umpire. Nc
Coy won the toss and chose the south
goal, giving the ball to Corning's men
who started the game by a forty-yard
kickoff. II the first scrimmage the
city boys LOST the ball to the college
men who with series of rushes and
an end play by Stewart carried the
ball acrossthe goal for the first and
only touchdown. Goal was then kick
ed by Corning which made the score
6 to o for the college. The ball was
then brought to the center and the
play was continued a few yards either
side center until the end of the first
half. After the first touchdown was
made Mr.. Stackpole acted as referee
and Mr.. Robinson, umpire. The second
half was hotly contested but neither
side could score. The game was the
best ever played in the Black Hills.
