Sure enough the Chinaman got his friends

Council Bluffs.

story OF IA Fighting Coon Who Invaded
Council Bluffs.
Peck's Sun relates that Council Bluffs
was quite a place before Omaha was dreamed
of; then people began to cross the Mis-
souri, river and a new settlement sprung
up, and Omaha came into existence, 1t
was a lively place in those early days, and
a more mixed population could not be found
anywhere in the United States.
Fights were of frequent occurrence and
any man who posed as n tighter could get
all he wanted on short notice.
Among the transients who visited the
town at regular intervals was a ranch
owner who owned a ranch on the overland
trail. about 100 miles west of Omaha. He
was always accompanied by a darkey who
was noted for two things-good humor and
IA fondness for fighting. He was continually
hunting for a pretext to fight some one
and when walking on the street he was
always forced to walk on ahead, so his
master could watch him and keep him out
OF trouble.
The rancher visited the town on one oc-
casion to purchase some supplies for his
men, and az usual had the negro who was
known as Bob with him. They were walk
ing down the main street of the town with
the negro in the lead. Suddenly he
stopped.
Say, Massa George" he asked, did you
see dat Chinee man jes' go by"'
Yes. | saw him" was the reply.
We'll. Use jes' goin' to lick de stufin'

What did he do ?'asked his master.
'Well, you kin BELIEF ct or not, jes' as
you like. hut when dat yellow skin pass |

'You are mistaken. Bob" replied the
rancher, "all Cinnamon are cross-eyed.
"Am dat a face
Eyes. it is true
''WeIl, jes' len him go dis time, but
it was a berry close shave: a berry close
shave"
A little further ON Bob stopped again.
Boss" he exclaimed. "dere's ma use
talkin'. Use goin' TO lick dat heather. Come
TO think of II. he looked like a good lickin
would do hin a powerful sight of good"
Now, look here, Bob," said the rancher'
II won't stand any fOoling. The last time

Just then another Chinaman came along,
and as he passed he took a look at the
negro from the corners Of his eyes.
