THE MAN WHO WAS GRIEvED.

THE MAN WHO WAS GRIEVED.
Wednesday afternoon last, as we sat
in our Sanctun. a stranger entered with
II gun in his hand, and when we had
welcomed him with our usual cheerful
smile, he began
rs y-y-yOur n-n-name"-
We at once saw that he had an i'm
pedment of speech and helped him
out by replying that We were Mr.. Jim
Hel.s0, owner and editor of The Kicker
Mayor of the town. Postmaster
Deputy United States Marshal, State
Senator, champion wing shot of Ari-
Z1na, and so forth.
II have-hlve c-c-come t-t-to-to"-
continued The man, but he cut it off
there and sat down to rest.
We gave. him len minutes by the
clock. and then motioned for him to
20 on. and he stood up and said
III have c-c-cone TWO hundred
m-n-mileS IL S-S-S-
He was tired out again and took an
other rest, and then said The same thing
over again. 1t was our busy day and
we had no more time 10 spare. We
therefore begged HIM to excuse Us and
went our way and saw him no more.
Later in the day he left town. but be-
fore going he got the kinks out of his
aOngue and explained TO several citizens
rllar his name was Barney, and that
he had come TWO. hundred miles on
horseback TO shoot lis. He was grieved
and hurt that we didn't give him two
hours to explain his mission and have
pop at us. bur we don't feed ourselves
10 blame. If we suffered as bad as
Mr. Barney does we should s-s-shoot
our m-m-man first and make our ex-
p.anat atiOns Heater on. If he'll call
again Wc'l do business with him.
The morning times., 1897-01-31

1t was not the reverbarltion of thunder,
nor yet the rambling and moaning of
an earthquake about to wipe Giveadam
Gulch and the editor of the Kicker off
the face Of the g.ODe. No Ii was none
Of these things which caused two thous-
and sleeping human beings 10 start UP
in terror and ca upon Heaven 10 de-
fend them from deadly peril. 1t WAS
simply old Jim Williams the bear
hunter, who had come down from his
mountain cave with jag on. He got
as far as the public square and stepped
10 who0p and jump on his hat and jump
UP and down and 10 crack his heels
together and below Ike a thousand
bob tailed bu Is. 3 We were probably
the only man in town who recognized
what sort Of Il calamity was at hand,
and we jumped into our boots and
trousers and jerked the old man TO the
lookup ana gagged him with a stick
of stove wood. He was all right next
morning. ana we turned him loose. and
the great mystery which has occupied
the minds of our fellow townSmen for
the last TWO days is hereby fully eX-
p.ained.

WAS INTENSELY DULL
The Only Business Transacted Was Done
!. by Professional Traders,
SOME SHORT CONTRACTS WERE PLACED
Tho Greater Part Of tho sales wcre or
shares of the Industrial Special.
fses-tho Hallway List Was Dccid.
edIy Ncgiected-A Littlo Firnncss
Manifested in Changers.

New York, Oct. 23.-To-day's security
market was intensely dull throughout
Ihe only business done was by profess
sional traders, and this included some
selling for foreign account. Some of
the selling represented the placing of
snort contracts by bear traders, who
argued that the danger OF tho Cuban
question:, leading to strained relations
with Spain. Indicated that prices would
uecllne. The Sunday interval before
trading will be resumed made these
operators cautious !n their ventures for
Tear of developments that may change
the situation before Monday. The dis
positlon to restrict operations for short
turns was very obvious and the only
movement of prices seems to be due to
professional manipulation. The total
sales were less than 10000 shares, a
Inquire lower than for any Saturday in
months. The greater part of the sales
were Of shares OF the Industrial special
ties. the railway list being decidedly
neglected. Some nrnness was mani
lest in the Changers ccl theory that they
VIII benefit from favorable decision
IN the Nebraska maximum freight rate
case. Which is expected from the Su-
preme Court on Monday-that Is to say,
decision denying the right OF the
Sttte Oh Nebraska TO fix maximum
1relGht charges by the railways
Sugar displayed some strength dur
Ing the day and closed with a. small net
gain. Chicago Gas and Union Pacific
were the only stocks traded In to the
extent OF more than 10000 shares.
The latter was weak on the doubt cast
upon the success Of the reorganization
pan by talk of an opposition syndicate,
which continues to be talked OF in an
lndellned way. TRANSACTION in bonds
were DUH and featureless. The total
sales OF stocks to-day were 90, 900 shares.
