A young man who goes to business

the station and asked for position as
detective. He had been reading dime
novels and decided that his character
istics were identical with those dis
played by his heroes.
AS the chief was not around the sta

a plan to try out the young man and
have a little fun with him for the
benefit of the other officers. So telling
the young man to leave his hat in the
station and take off his coat and collar
the detective informed him that If he
could run from the station to the Union
Pacific depot in certain specified time

to repeat the pass word "Qui quivera'

Tho Man Who Pave His Way

! In every newspaper we pick up we are sure to find gush about the man behind the gun; the. man behind the buzzsaw and the man behind the times and the man behind the rents; the man behind the plowshare and the man be- hind the fence; the man behind the whistle and the man behind the cars: the man behind the kodak and the man behind the bars; the man behind the whiskers and the man behind his fists, and everything behind has entered on the list. But they have skipped an- other fellow of whom nothing has been said-the fellow who is even or little way ahead; who pays for what he gets andrwhose bills are always signed-he's darned sight more important than the man who is behind, All we editors and merchants and the whole conner cial clan are indebted for existence to this honest fellow man. He keeps us all in business and his town is never dead, and so we takerour hats off to the man who is ahead.-Ex.
