kIssOurian Shown
Old Time Friends Relieve Him Of
s27 in Coin.

There was one Missourian III
town yesterday who was shown.
He was a homesceker at the Rock
Islaud depot and on his way west.
BY chance the Missourian made
the acquaintance Of a pair Of fell
low-countrymsn. A bond of SYM
pathy Immediately sprung up be-
tween them and it was intensified
when it was discovered the two
strangers knew most everybody
that the homeseeker knew back in
Missouri, They knew all about
Tom, Bill and theothe Missourians.
The strangers were mule dealers,
So they said. After a time all
three walked up town and were
taking in the sights. The strsn-
gers had a car of mules on the track
and they wanted to pay the freight
OH them. They had the money in
their grips at the depot but to save
trouble, they asked their new
friend to loan them S27 for a few
minutes they would return ii as
soon as they went back to the de-
pot.
The Missourian readily parted
with his coin and his friends parted
company with him very soon and
that was the last he saw Of either
money or mule dealers. He soon
tumbled 70 the fact that he had
been buncoed and told his troubles
bat no trace Of the fleecers has
been found.
