Then he turned and made fur an alleyway. but as he turned they let him have it He throwed up his arms and made one long stagger right out of the windows, and he fell into the shadder, out of sight. jest like 8 scOrched moth drops dead into the darkness from torch.
 Out of the middle of that bunch of riders come 8 big voice, yelling num- bers, instead of mems names. Then different crowds lit out in all direc- tions-some on foot, while others held their hosses-fur they seemed to have plan laid ahead.
 And then things began to happen. They happened so quick and with such a whirl 1t was all unreal to me-shots and shouts and windows breaking as they blazed away at the store fronts all around the square, and orders and cuss words ringing out between the noise of shooting. and with electric lights shining on them as they tossed and trampled. and showing up masked faces here and there. and pounding hoofs and hosses scream ming like hu- mans with excitement, and spurts of flame squirted sudden out of the ring of darkness round about the open place.

Is grouch1er to them they thinks is buns than north of 1t anyhow. And in some parts of it if a real bum gets pinched heaven help i'm, fur nothing else won't.
 One night between 12 and o'clock I was put off of freight train fur the second time in place in the northern part of Tennessee, right near the Ken lucky line. I got into a lumber yard to rest.
 < It was g dark night, and so fur as I could zee they wasn't much moving in that town. Only a few places was lit up. One was way acrost the town square from me, and it was the teIe- phone exchange, with a man operator reading book in there. The other was the telegraph room in the depot about a hundred yards from me, and they was only two fellers in it. both smoking. The main business part of the town was built up around the square.
 I knowed they was likely a watch man somewheres about too. I guessed l wouldn't wander around none and run no chances of getting took up by
 him. So I was getting ready to lay down on top of level pile of boards and go to sleep when I hearn a cu- rious kind of noise away off,. like it must be at the edge of town. It sounded like quite bunch of cat I tie might shuf1ing along dusty road. The night was so quiet you could hear things plain from long ways of. It growed a little louder and little near CT, and then it struck a plank bridge somewheres and come acrost it with elatter. Then I knowed it wasn't cattle Cows and steers don't make that cantering kind of noise as rule; they trot. It was hosses crossing that bridge, and they was quite a lot of 'em
 As they struck the dirt road agin hearn a shot. And then another and another. Then a dozen all to oncet, and away off through the night a wo- man screamed
 Mems voices began to yell out. They was the noise of people running along plank sidewalks and windows opening in the dark. Then with a rush the gal loping noise come nearer, come closer; raced by the place where was hiding, and nigh a hundred men with guns swept right into the middle of that square and pulled their hosses up.
