Las Vegas Proud Of the Thirst 81
Buster and eroneho.

Two beer guzzling burros are
among the chief objects OF interest at
Las Vegas. Buster and Bronco are
the names of these two curiosities In
the animal line, whose admirers are
ready to go broke at any time betting
on the claim that they can drink more
beer than any other kind Of animals
that may visit the camp.
Two-leggeG animals of any variety
are not barred. so deep and profound
is the belief Of the sports In the thirst
and liquid capacity of Buster and his
side kicker. Bronco.
These Imitation mules were among
the first arrivals in Vegas. "Old man"
Morgan. a conspicuous character
among the fortune hunters. started
with them fer the gold diggings. but
decided to stop at the site OF the rail
road town.
While Morgan is the nominal owner
Of the burros, the whole population
claims an interest in them. AS both
animals are OF a gentle disposition. NIL
the newcomer has TO do to ingratiate
himself in their esteem is to spend
the price of two bottles of beer-a bot.
tie for Buster and enc for Bronco.
The owner AYERS that their appetite
for beer is natural. The sports of the
camp declare in one voice that II there
is anything cultivated about their IN
usual appetite II is the most beautiful
specimen of cultivation that they have
ever seen.
II is yet an unsolved question as to
which OF the two can dispose of the
most beer. and every saloon man in
Vegas has a standing offer TO supply
the stun II some teIderfoot is prepar
ed TO furnish the cash with the order

Not only did the shark hunting
PARTY Of Sunday kill the largest shark
Of tie season. but incidentally they
managed TO bring TO shore the largest
plot fish even seen in Honolulu.
For this latter killing. however. they
appear TO take no credit. The
fish was attached TO the dead body
II the shark. The fish was caught
and placed in a fank at Young
Brothers wharf. where II remains At
present. 1t is about nine inches long
and is Of dark brownish blue color.
Its most remarkable characteristic is
the large sucker" which extends over
the whole top of the head and by
which he at will attaches himself TO
the body OF the shark which he
adopts"

foung's this morning amer he had
been taken with n net from the body
OF his huge friend, the Ash acted In q

he seemed to get reconciled and At.
