Bill a Prisoner

Old Bill seayer. an old and respeckted citizen of Bingville. who has long ago outlived his usefulness and don't do much but loaf around town one place and an- other from sunrise to sunset, dropped into the Bugle office the other day and laid down behind the press on a old pile of papers and went to sleep, and when 1t came evening we forgot all about Bill and shut and locked the office and went home and never thought about him until we opened up shop next morning at about 9 a. m. There was Bill setting inside waiting for us and as mad as a wet hen. Bill desired to know what we locked him in the office for and we told him that we forgot all about him. Then he got so mad that we had to push. him outen the office He paused long enough to say that he would stop his paper and never wanted to see copy of 1t as long as he lives, Wa stop BilPs paper with pleasure Being as he had been a constant reader and subscriber for nine years and ain't never paid us a cent since he started we con- slider that it Is more profitable to stop his paper at this juncture than to let him get any deeper into our debt What ap- plies to Bill and his paper also applies to many or our subscribers and we may mention some names in the future if they don't pay up.

Bill Hepburn. our artistick Blacksmith and Bill Yates, who is Btlrs boon com panion in debotch, both made a trip to the Go. seat last satterday and returned to Bingvllle in the ev's in a riotous state of intoxicashion disgraceful to behold. They walked up and down Main street with their arms around each others necks singing songs and follering at the tops of their lungs. Seth Dewberry. our lion hearted town constable was hunt ed for all over town to arrest the two men, but Seth couldn't be found nowhere After they had sobered up the next day Seth turned up and said he had been hunting down a desprit gang Of chikken thiefs over eawridge mountain way and regretted that he had not been here be- ing as he would have clapped both men in Jail quicker than wink. Mrs. Dew berry. however, Inadvertently stated to a neighbor that Seth went to bed as soon as the two men arrived from the Co. seat and remained there until the next morn ing.

stumuaick. 1t was awful uncomfortable place to stay overnight setting astraddle of . limb and holding on for dear life. Eb was scairt lest he should drop of to sleep first and then drop down out of the tree aftarwards and have the bull gore him to death. In deeperashion he raised up his voice in prayer and asked the good Lord to deliver him from that infewrfated red bull. Then after he had prayed awhile without no results he would cuss and swear at that bull until fly wouldn't scarcely light on 1t In this way the night wore on. Along lords daylight soon as it got light enough for Eb to see he looked down and seen the bull laying at the foot of the tree sound asleep. Then ( brillyunt thought occurred to Eb, so he pulled hisself further up into the tree until he was out of sight of the critter. Bye and bye the bull woked up and looked up Into the tree and didn't see nothing of Eb and then looked all around and finally walked off and begin to graxe thinking perhaps that f5b had excaped during the night. ED he kept quiet until the bull had wandered over behind q hurnnick at one end of the field, then he slid down the tree very quiet and dropped to the ground ana run like Satan was after him until he reached his own doorstep where Sary was waiting for him with tears in her eyes wondering what had became of him. sary didn't never go to bed all night. Eb told her to stop weepin and get him up his dinner, supper and breakfast all in one meal being as he was so near fam ished that he could eat a sole leather boot and enjoy it.
 ED now desires to dispose of his red bull to any person needing red bull. Eb says this bull is sound in wind and limb and is well bred and ain't got only one fault--he don't like red.

Being as "Old Home Weeks" have got so popular in many other cities and metropolusses of the country. Bineville has rose to the ocashion and has de- cided to have a old home week of her own which will occur some time during the month of September coming the exact date having not yet been fixed exactly but will be later, announcement of which will duly appear in the Buple.
 This old home, week for BingviIle was the result of deliberashions on the part of the Board of Trade consisting of Arioch Skinner, Simon Wilkins and Plutarch Watkins. It occurred to these three officials of Bingville that a old home week would be great thing, for the town, so on last Tuesday ev'g they called a mass meeting to discuss it at the Town Hall and there was d biz turn out present Arioch opened the meeting and stated the object of same. He said that being as it was more or less common for various other cities to hold old home weeks he thought it would be no more than proper for Bingville to have one. He said that them as had been borned and raised in Bingville, as you might say, but who when they had arrived at manhood and womanhood, as the case might be, had left these diggings and had sort of wandered away to the turmoil of the great cities and had sort of got weaned away from the apron strings of their native heath, would take espeshial pleasure in coming back to visit us again if we. was to hold a old home week in our midst and bid them well come to their old stamping ground once more Arioch said that he hoped if we decided to hold old home week all would do their part to welcome back the lost sheep of Isriul, as he might say, to their old familiar pastures and he calllilated that there ought to be a large banner painted on muslin and hung acrost the street in front of the Post Office, saying in large letters, WELCOME TO OUR CITYi" oi words to that effeckt. Then Arioch set | down and wiped the sweat offen his brow because it was a tolerable warm ev'g and besides Arioch alus gets all het up when he has to speak in publick because, as he says hisself, he ain't no publick speaker
 Arioch then called on Slime Wilkins. another member of the B. of T. for speech and Slime removed his quid and got up and wrung out his coat tails for a minnit or two in agony and cleared his throat and coughed and said that Arioch had voiced his sentiments exact ly and he calkilated he couldn't add nothing to it. Arioch then called on Plutarch Watkins, who was also con siderable embarrassed and said that Ari- och in saying what he did about old home week had took the very words outen his mouth that he was agoing to say hisself and that he therefore didn't have nothink to say Then Plutarch sat down in disgust
 Arioch then called for expressions of opinion on the part of various repre- sentative citizens of Bingville who chanced to be in the audience. Hank Dewberry at once aroze and said he was opposed to any old home week being held in Bingville for the benefit of out siders who had been borned and raised here and then when they got growed

up had went and forsook US, as he might say, and left Us in the lurch to get along as well as we could without them. Hank said that in his opinion l such tingfateful CUTS wasn't entitled to have no fuss made over them Hank said he was in favor of having a sort of grand rally for Bingvillians, but as for getting up doings for those who had wandered from the fold and didn't care a hang whether Bingville sunk or swunl, he was asin it
 At this point Arioeh told Hank to set down as he was out of order and besides he wasn't a representative citi- zen of Bingville anyhow Hank said he wasn't out of order being as he had just finished taking five bottles of swamp root bitters and never felt better in his life, and if Arioch. thought he was out of order he wished he would kindly step out on the grass in front of the town hall and he would show him. For awhile it looked as if there was going to be trouble, but this was fortu- aged to cool him down. Arioch then called for a standing vote. Fifty-two out of them present stood up III IdVor oI OlQ nome week TOT blng- vile while 2 who shared Hanks opiTi- ion in the matter voted agin it. Arioch said that the old home week projeckt had been carried by an overwhelming majority, but them as voted against 1t ali declared that they would do all in their power to make old home week in Bingville hzzle.
 Arioch said another publick meeting would be held in the town hall later at which committees would be appointed to arrange a program for the occashion and to send out invites to former resi- dents of Bingville who are now scat tered to the four winds of heaven, as you might say.
 Subscribe for the Bugle, espechially if you can't be here for old home week it will give you all the news about it.
