aDpointmentS of the saloon when he
bought it in the days when pewter mugs
had TO special value. An occasional pa
tron of the place would admire them and
then tell his friends about them. The sa-
loon furnished a very good quality of ale
and the proprietor soon discovered that
his mugs were more of an attraction than
his ale. Men from up town would drop l n
as if by accident, and, after draining one
of his mugs, make him an offer for the
set. He never absolutely declined this
offer. He usually replied that he wanted
to think it over, and of course, the cOllcc-
tor you drop in from time to time to
keep his eye on the mugs and be ready TO
purchase them whentheir owner should
yield. One man who has been thus wait
ing for an opportunity TO buy these mugs
found On his last visit to this place an ac-
uuaintarce who is q collector of these
things talking to the proprietor. Eacl,
man knew The others business there. and
on comparing notes they found that the
proprietor had led each of them to be-
| lieve that ultimately he might purchase
the Mugs. They pushed their investiga-
tons further and discovered that each OF
the half dozen or more men Whom they
knew to be occasional frcquenters of the
place had been encouraged to believe
that the mugs might come to him at his
own price. It daWred upon than then
, that the proprietor had used his pewters
to very good advantage and that with sc
much competition for them he was not
likely to accept a reasonable price for tht
mugs.

we first took him prisoner and supposed
that we had taken away all his weapons.
When everything was in readiness, and

behind him and cut the rawhide string
that bound his hands and began count

for the girl who stood by my side. When
the scouts saw the motion they fired be-
fore l had given the last word, but not

came up to his knees and tried again to
get to the girl. The second shot struck
him and he fell again, then turne IN his

the girl, when a shot struck him full in

An a~gricuIturist from Iowa, WHO had
brought sosne live stock to the city ana
had heard of the cat show. dropped in to
see what it was like. He had a half-fOrm-
ed idea of buying one of the handsofnest
of the animals, if he could be assured
that he could transport it to hls.home
without too much trouble.
With this point in mind, he made the
rounds of the cages, and then stopping
in front of a splendid Black cat. bearing
| the name of Peter Jackson asked
somebody who happened to be standing
by: -.
.What do you suppose they'd sell that
cat for?'
"The lady who owns that cat" was the

He didn't buy any cats at that show.
