kid PINK AND THE MAHARAJAH."

-Selig.
There was no doubt as to Kid
Pink's all-around badness He not
only looked the part, but acted it. 1t
followed as natural course of
events, therefore, that when the
sheriff put price on the Kids head
the Kid should hold up the mail coach
and send a note back to the sheriff
suggesting that If he wanted him as
badly as he said he did 1t would be
a fine idea to come and get him, The
Kid said he didn't intend to move;
when the sheriff came he would be
on hand to receive him.
1t was Kid Pinks perverted sense
of humor that prompted him to send
this note back by the Maharajah,
passenger on the coach. The Kid
had been interested in the Mahara-
jah's appearance. 1t struck him that
he would be a bizarre messenger.
When the sheriff received the note he
lost his temper, but not his prudence.
He dispatched a squad of deputies
after the Kid, and then sat down
with the Maharajah to discuss the
subject of the reincarnation of souls
and bottle of whiskey.
The squad, contrary to expectations
Kid Pink's among others-"got" the
Kid. They got him so good" that
When the deputies brought the body
back they found the sheriff deep in
discussion of TRANSPORTATION, and
even deeper In his cups.
Having consumed all the Whiskey
that a good East Indian can carry
the Maharajah went his way. The
sheriff remained to dream. He dreamed
that he was in India in q far off age
being entertained by the Maharajah,
who received him with much affec-
ton. But when the sheriff at length
extracted himself from the Mahara-
jah's embrace he was considerably
disturbed to discover that the
Maharajah was none other than * d
Pink. II appears that this was the
Kids previous incarnation. The
sheriff was about to apologize to the
Kid for killing him and to advise his
letting by-gones be by-gones when he
suddenly recalled that the by-gones
did not ex st. Thereupon he and the
Kid embraced and the Kid conducted
him to his harem. The entertainment
in the seraglio proved magnificent
but eventually 1t came to an end.
Then with many tears and kisses the
Maharajah babe the sheriff farewell.
Here the dream changed. The
sheriff was suddenly beset by bandits.
One of them roped him as a cowboy
does steer and while he fastened
him to a tree the sheriff d 'scovered
him to be Kid Pink in another incar-
nation. The bandit lit fire at the
sheriffs feet and the sheriff strug
Cling desperately to escape a death
by incineration--woke up.
