The Waterloo Of King Jedediah |.

I'm here in Honolulu because King
Jedediah was euchred by that little
German band. Not only that night, but
every night for a month I never saw
them, nor could I get a glimpse of
them; only 1 could hear them begin to
play along towards midnight when the
surf got low and the sea breeze didn't
come in. And every night those three
white thieves, men that I'd saved from
the gallows and worse, crept out on
their porches and listened.
know when I'm beat. At the end of
that month the Kingdom of Enid was
demoralized. The army wouldn't take
heart in their drill and Himmeifritz
and LaVang and Boggs were worse
than mutinous. How're you going to
deal with a man that doesn't hear
what you say half the time and spends
the other half incoming in his quarters?
1 tell you it'll put the Invest sort Of
kingdom strictly on the blink.
So at the end of the month I sent
Himmelfritz up the mountain with my
ultimatum. Tell 'em to quit playing
and come down and I'll ship 'em out
right away was my words.
You don't think I'm going to have
those Dutch nightingales singing in
my kingdom, do you? You tell 'em
they can't get out of here fast enough"
How'll you get them out?" he comes
back at me.

thing to get rid of them"
So Himmelfrith departs as envoy ex-
traordinary to the little German band
and brings 'em down. BY Heck, I
laughed when I saw 'em, mad as I
was.
Imagine at shutdown a half-dozen of
bearded Dutchmen, each with his horn
or his flute, parading down lane a
hot evening with blue uniform and
heavy cap on, all blowing a tune as
solemn as I'm sitting here! The Bess
was lying in the lagoon, all ready for
them, and they went on past the pal

When doctor gives pre-

puts in little poison to dead

That's killing pain, or, rather,
killing the nerves. Of course,
if your ailment is of a chronic
nature, the pain will come
back and you must keep on;
taking the same drug or suf-
fer. It stops the pain for
short time, but it is breaking
down your nervous system and
running your stomach.
The poisons that are used
most frequently by the doctors
are morphine, cocaine, mer-

first two are used to stupefy
the nerves, and are responsible
