JOKE THAT WAS TURNED
ON THE JOSHERS!

The stampede from the Butte City
Hall caused by the voluntary statement
OF a visitor to the effect that he had
smallpox. calls to mind an incident
which occurred at Ragtown situated
on the bank of the Carson river, 81
miles east of this city, says the Vir-
ginla City Enterprise. during the latter
COS. The circumstances were about
as follows: A man named Asa Ken
yon kept a station at the point above
mentioned, who had several Well-known
pe~culiarit'es, having located in that
station during the earliest immigration
across the plains. He began business
by securing by purchase. barter or
otherwise the jaded or broke-down
stock Of the g~old-seekers, and often
accumulated a few "ducats' by finding
and returning animals mysteriously
strayed during the night. Other dis
tinct peculiarltiesof his disposition will
appear in the history Of the event
which is referred to in the beginning Of
this article.
A party Of eight or ten sporty Com
stockers started from this city in a rig
consisting OF six mustangs and a thor
oughbrace mud-wagon, blankets and
the usual supplies Of a party on their
way to a new mining camp. They
we're headed for White Pine and on
the lookout for diversion Of any kind
during the trip. Before reaching Asa
kenyon's place they conceived the
idea Of havidg a good time at the ex-
pence Of "Old Asa The result prov
ed disastrous to their plans. One OF
the gang was rolled in heavy blankets
and when the wagon arrived at the
porch Of the station his comrades care
fully carried him into the barroom and
laid him on some benches quickly
placed in position by the proprietor,
whe casually inquired what appeared to
be the matter with the poor fellow, who
was groaning and manifesting in many
ways the terrible pain which seemed 10
be torturing him. The spokesman Of
the crowd whispered to Asa that the
poor fellow had just broke out with
smallpox. Out Of the back door went
the old man, and as soon as possible
his wife and family were hustled from
the house and placed in the store-house
a little distance from the station.
The patient got up and all hands
started to have a jolly time. One Of
the boys taking his place behind the
bar. the hilarity began. Their mlrth
soon attracted the attention Of Asa"
who crept to a rear window, and took
an observation then returning to the re-
treat Of his family he picked up a No.
8 goose gun which contained a hand
full Of heavy shot in each barrel. Re-
turning 10 the back window and poklng
