The Derrick's Spasm-

The Derrick's Spasm-
The Casper Derrick had a spasm
last week, and as a result over two
columns were devoted to wholesale
abuse of Senator Warren. Governor
Richards, Judge C. B. Bradley and
J.. M. Carey. The attack upon Mr..
Bradley is particularly cowardly, be-
cause when the gentleman left Cas-
per this same paper said many pleas
ant things about him; but now that
he is across the sea it opens its mud
guns and fatty ~contradicts its previous
u%tterances. Its attack upon the other
gentlemen named comprise the usual
democratic b~elly-wash, and needs no
reply. The paper is run by a little
man named Hayes, whose friends
apologize for this and other breaks of
like character by explaining that he
.neyer wrote it'-that he hasn't brains
enough for anything Of the sort, which
we suppose is true; and yet he is at
least responsible for its publication,
and should be held strictly to account
therefor, just the same.-Douglas Bud

man whose voice was heard through
the double door was a Methodist
preacher.
"I should like to AXE look at that
preacher"
you would regret it exceedingly"
Has the preacher such a terrible
looF?"
He has"
and are you not afraid of him?"
He does not seem terrible to me-"
"If you continue this mystery l
shall institute proceedings for di-
vorce."
You have no ground that will hold
water before the law"
"Well, I'll discover it yet"
From that time on NJ. Diomede sur
rounded his palace with spies, who
were instructed to give him immediate
notice as soon as the mysterious Wis
itor called again. He determined to
break into his wife's secret chamber
with witnesses and police, so that he
might have absolute proof of her faith
~lessness.
He was just then engaged on a paint
ing which was to be the ne plus ultra
of iripressionist art. Christmas morn
ing the picture was all but finished.
There was only the sky and the star to
be touched up with a finishing grace.
Mr.. Vanderguld again came from
America. He inspected the picture be-
fore it was taken off the easel.
"The price of this me will be $4,000
francs" said Diomede carelessly.
81 will pay the price"
When a painters brush can c~onjure
10000 francs out of nothing he may
proudly cast aside a wife who has mil
lions.
He was busy at his work when the
spies came running in to him to an
nounce that the mysterious preacher
was again in the secret room alone
with Mrs. Deborah. Diomede ran there
Immediately in his working jacket,
taking two friends along. On the way
from the studio to the palace they
picked up a policeman and a lock-
smith. The whole crowd of them
rushed into the palace. The secret
chambers door was locked now, too.
I'm the name of the law!" Numbered
the policeman.
There was no response. The door
was then forced by the locksmith. Be-
yond was another door. NJ. Diomede
himself knocked and thumped at this.
Let me in. l am here. Your hus-
bandit"
Mrs. Deborah replied:
Go away from here. Do not come
in. You will feel worse than II you
died"
The inner door was locked with a
spring. At Diomede's order it was bat
tered down-Diomede, his two friends,
the policeman. the locksmith and the
servants.
Before him Diomede saw Mr.. Van
derguld.
Mr.. Vanderguld!" he stammered,

Il am not Mr.. Vanderguld, but Elias

Here they are seen by nobody. I was
just now considering with my daugh-
ter where we could hang the seasick
picture. as it is rather large. When 1t
is done send it here. I'll pay for It."
Diomede was turned to stone. His
good friends almos. split with sup
pressed laughter. The policeman en-
tered in his notebook the circum-.
stances of the case for his official re-
port. And Mrs. Deborah, going to NJ.
Diomede, said:
