AAt was - AtuQeFtOOL lresn from the
east full Of queer notions OF the red
mansland and as he sat in thespscious
editorial rooms Of the ARDMoRRTrK
last Friday momentarely expecting
to see some exhibition of gun prac-
tice the nervousness was plainly ap-
parent. The delivery bov from the
corner grocery rushing by, the stately
form OF a L. =. Marshal solemly
marching mp the sidewalk or n mule
team hauling brick along the street
evidently did not reassure him.
The conversation turned naturally
on bad men who make a speciality
OF news paper editors and eastern
arrivals, for victims and the asser-
tion that the ONCE expected trouble
about a recent article together with
talk of numerous murder cases in
Judge Gibbons court rendered him
very anxious about his personal
welfare. Suddenly without warn

have encountered granite at is feet
below the surface and are agitsiing
Il with dynamite touched on a blast
OF five sticks OF that explosive and
the result was something peculiar.
The conclusion threw open the rear
doors and a few chunks OF rock
came through the room and with
wild whoop OF "Here they are" the
tenderfoot landed in the middle OF
the street He headed down Main
and just about the time be reached
the crossing OF Caddo three large
blasts went on in the cistern being
dug for the city, and that did settle
it. The speed which before had
attained n rate Of 20 miles an hour
I increased now TO forty and before

reach the .-ound the gentleman
road going ike a meteor. The horse
editor has just finished a calculation
as to his present where abouts AZ
