days in Louisville, TO the Courier Jour
nal, "Creede was a booming camp. You

foot in. Tenderfeet were not stacking up

But as 1 was saying, that fight that
Joe Palmer made against the Orleans
Kid was as good and game fight as
man ever saw. Palmer is in Denver
now What does he do? Wen, everything;
for Joe is an all-round gambler Down
in Creole he ran house for JEFF Smith.
The Kid came in there one night and got
noisy and abusive. The fact that he had
killed four men didn't cut any figure with
joe and he politely but firmly told him to
get out. The Kid left sullUly, and we
fellows at the tables, watching the play
flyer, in our inner consciousness, that
there'd be trouble before morning..
Joe stepped out of the place a little
afterward. He was gone but a moment
or two. when we heard a shot. We sprang
up from our chips leaving our bets on the
layout and rushed outside. And there,
Palmer was standing in the middle
of the street, right under the electric
fairest of targets. The Kid was by the
corner in the shadow of the stores. Both
of them were blazing away at less than
thirty PAGES. The Kids second bullet
struck joe in the thumb of his pistol hand
end the gun fell to the ground Joe picked
it up with his left and went on shooting.
Another bullet from the Kid struck Joe's
left thumb and the six-shooter dropped
again. We all thought Joe would run
then sure, because we couldn't see how
he could ever cock his gun to keep up the
fight He stopped over. as cool as you
please, grabbed his gun in his right hand
and cooked it by rubbing it downward
against his leg,
when the two men had used up all
their cartridges and the fight was over,
-Four Of Joe's SIX bullets had hit him. He
won out though in his lingering six weeks
game with death. and got wei enough to
kill a man up in Duluth and go to the
Minnesota pen.

The following interesting anecdote is
told or MIR. Booth, the American TRACE
dian, says Our Animal Friends Booth
and several friends had been invited to
dine with an old gentleman in Baltimore,
of distinguished kindness. urbanity, and
piety. The host though disappearing of
theaters and theater going, had heard
so much OF Booths remarkable powers
that curiosity TO see the man had, in this
instance, overcome all his scrupleS. After
dinner was over, lamps lighted, and the
company reseated in the drawing room,
some one requested Booth as a particular
favor, and one which all present would.
Doubtless appreciate, to read aloud THE
Lords Prayer"
Booth expressed his ready willingness
to afford them this qualification, and all
eyes were turned expectantly upon him,
Booth rose slowly and reverently from
play OF emotion that CONFUSED his coun-
tenance. He became deathly pale, and
his eyes, turned tremblingly upwards,
were wet with tears. AS yet he had not
spoken The silence could be felt.

last the spell was broken as If by an cleo
trio shock as the rich-toned voice, from
white lips, syllabled forth Our Father,
which art in Heaven" etc, with pathos
and fervid solemnity that thrilled all
hearts He finished. The silence continued.
Not a voice was heard nor a muscle
moved in his astonished audience, I'M
