as freely as in the saloons of other
cities, as the journal plainly intimates.
There is only one fraud in Kansas

Every man and boy on the place
was drawn to the scene OF combat by
the wild cries OF rage which came
from the struggling animals. 1t re-
uuired half an hours work, during
which pitchforks, clubs and lassos We're
brought into play to get them apart.
Both had finished their morning por-

some Of the yearlings of the place We're
led through lane which passes

docks The crisp morning air seemed
to have affected the youngsters. and
they plunged and pranced as they went

that gave promise Of serious results
Their cries had brought out their care

so furlously did they tear about.

While they were down, efforts were
made to lasso them, but they easily
snapped the bands when they got on
their feet After twenty minutes had
been spent. both began to show signs
Of exhaustion, and with the aid Of
