As an offset we allowed the boys to shoot out tho lamp always left burning at the front door of TIE KICKER office all night, and up to last Tuesday tho crowd seemed happy and content Tuesday afternoon old Jim '. Hewson, who generally takes tho lead in all frolics filled up with budge and an nounccd that a rebellion had broken out in this section of the United States. Ho soon influenced three or four others, with tho result that they held n convention and agreed to ride their horses up stairs, as in olden days. At 3 o'clock we were seated in our oflice'a and just ready to sign our official signature to contingent fund warrant for $l0 when wc heard n great shouting md clattering on the street below. Five of our eminent citizens led by old Jim, were on horseback and ready to mako a dash at tho stairs.
 Our guns hG.l been left at THE KICKER oflico to bo cleaned up by the horso editor after n rabbit hunt, and we rushed out of our room to find two horses in the hall and tho other three on the stairs. Several other eminent citizens had come up on foot to sec the fun, and at our very first move we wero seized by these and flung through window on to the roof of the Wild Bull saloon with a crash which lOOs- ened some 800 shingles and topplcd down tho chimney. The crCyd then entered our office and held a wardance which brought every living inhahitant of tho town to the public square in a state of alarm. We struck the roof with such force that the breath was knocked out of us for thrco or four minutes, but as soon as we came to we dropped to the ground, seized the two guns held out to us by Colonel Taylor,
 who had just come up and GO seconds la ter we had the gang stood up in the mayors office. We didn shoot at any one, and tho only bullet fired at us killed one of tho horses in the hall, and it took the combined efforts of ten men to drag the carcass down stairs
 When we had driven the gang out of the
 building, we began an inventory of dam ages. In the few minutes the boys had
 held possession they had almost completely wrecked chairs and desks and tables, while | two doors and threo windows wCrc dc | stroycd. The figures footed up $226, and
 we had scarcely found the total when those i who had created the damage sent ono oi l their number to tender the amount in l cash.
