Last week John r. Sullivan decided
that he would like to take a trip
through the Yellowstone National park.
and after careful consideration and in
~Nestigation as to the most desirable way
TO go, decided to drive. He therefore
at once instituted a search for a suit

found TO his chagrin that all the
equipped tourists wagons were out and

some time. 1t was. however, suggested
TO him by a number of whom ne in
quired that he could easily outfit him.
self by purchasing wagon. horses, etc.
and selling same upon his return, at
small expense.
Mr.. sullivan is a natural trader and
he at once took up with this idea, and
this for his present precarious
condition. In his knowing way he Wis
tied the various livery stables. feed
yards, secondhand wagon shops and
general traders who buy and sell ev-
erything from a dog collar to a steam
boat, and let il become generally known
that he was in the market for every
thlng necessary To make an overland
trip to the park.
Now he is looking for an undiscov-
cred cave TO hid i'm. He is awakened
in the morning and dragged away by a
MAJ who has just the proposition" in
the way or a wagon, turned over to a
man who has two horses who have
made the trip m know every inch of
the road pulled away, boosted on a
cayuse and galloped up and down the
street by a party who has just what he
wants for a pack pony, and when he
finally breaks away and gets home he
nnds the entrance to his apartments
blocked by a crowd who all want to
fix him out. Friday he sneaked out of
the house, made his way through alleys
and went to Anaconda TO give them the
slip and get a little much-needed rest.
but upon his return he found a party
who insisted upon furnishing him a
bear trap which he said every one took
several of on trips to the park.
The landlady served notice on him
yesterday that he must vacate. as she
did not rent him the apartments for a
labor bureau. ~whereupon he locked him
