A WlU>WEST EPISODE
In t h.'early vuiniiHT of 188. I Left my na-tive
Bbeli and i nrnod my ttejpo toward that
goal of till youthful :i>|»iratinns, the "Gold-en
Went," or, U> bemon explicit, that part
of the Iff I in the territory of
Dakota. At -Mainiai), n thriving young
city on tha Kortbera Pnotlle railroad, I
hoped to find employment, ajg tin- dlTurian
offices of tlic road wan located at that
place.
Ihadwotfcad g| u little way-aide

word puosed along the line that "expanaafl
must be cut down." Hut, like all yoang
fellows of inj age, I wanted to see some
thing of the world, and so I started out.
with BO certainty of battering] myself and
without the proapoat of a position.
i'ortinie, however, favored me, and a
temporary raeancy in t he telegraph depart-ment
at Matidan afforded me einployuient
until sonu'lliitii; l"iter should offer itself.
I was fast making myself at home in my
new situation, when ono niorning I was
called into the superintendent's office and
Informed that a IK-tier position, financially
speaking, was to he had a day's journey
up tha road; "hut," added tho superin-tendent,
looking me over critically, "it la
A rough, wild pinna, Baxter, and we must
have n fellow of nerve."
What young man of twenty-one would
not have jumped at an offer like that when
refusal virtually meant acknowledged cow-ardicef
Not 1, nt least, and so eager was I
to be off that I set about packing my traps
at once, and the next train up numbered
me among its passengers.
Gazing idly from the window as we
whirled along, I noted that, after miles of
track leaa, treeleas prairie was crossed, the
country chjuigid and grew more broken,
the rolling hills finally merging into pre-cipitous
"butu-H," cleft by deep canyons.
Wo had entered the Had I^ands, nnd a
dreary stretch of country it was. As far
■•the eye could set huge ma-sen of sand-stone
in fantastic shapes strewed the level
floor of the alkali plain. It seemed to be
some vast deserted city, so like to man's
handiwork were t In spires and domes, walls
and arches, niwhlsolod save by nature's
Wild, indeed, I thought, and wondered if
anything save eoyotM and cacti grew up
with that part of the country.
The conductor, a pleasant young chap,
presently ant down beside me for n chat.
"Goin to Mingusville, are you?" he re-marked,
"My run is this side. Goin to
stay long?"
"i have been sent lo take charge of that

"You don't any! I heard that the agent

"What hail the agent done?" I Inquired,
aghast.

reflections. I was in for it now and must
make the liest of it, but during the rest of

Michigan office with regret,
It was far into the night u ln-n I arrived
at Mingusville. and standing on the plat-form
I gaged sleepily after the iwcadJng
train until the glimmering row of lights
was no longer visible; then, feeling that 1
had severed the laal link with civilization,
I turned and made my wav into the dimly
lighted office.
A young man, but a few years my senior,
sat at tho key, ami to my brief explana-tion
returned it- briefly: "(.lad to see you.
Hotel straight across, <.ood night."
It was not until the next morning that 1
took my bearings. The "town" consisted
of four aalouiis, one store and a dozen
houses, besides the hotel and depot. I
mode this discover? in g hasty glance from
mj room window as I w.m in-low at the
summons of the breakfast hell. The hotel,
a roughly boarded structure, was divided
intodormitories where horde of men rolled
themselves in blankets and slept on the
floor. The railroad employees fund belter,
and a narrow bunk in n small room was
given (hem.
Entering the dining room, which would
have seated a regiment, 1 was ushered
past the long ta.jlt-.H i < ited at a table
£8t for four. I wag early, but was soon
joined by the night man, Maxwell, who, I
subsequently learned, was on all occasions
as briefly to the point as upon our Intro-duction.
Soon the long table, began to fill up, and
I forgot breakfast in watching the hurry-ing,
pushing crowd—rough, uncouth men,
tho majority of them, bat not the danger-ous
cutthroats I had pictured. "Will you
have sugar, please?" I gave a start as the
brisk voice broke in Upon my musings,and
fora full minute did not answer, so duui-founded
was I at sight of the apparition
that, unperceived by me, had glided to the
head of the table and WAS smiling roguish-ly
st me over a coffee cup. Kven the se-date
Maxwell smiled at my evident sn>
barrassiiient, but I managed to pull myself
together and to acknowledge tho quietly
spoken "IfoUifl Urant, your landlord's
daughter. Mr. Baxter.11 She then turned
her attention to the stout, red armed Swed-ish
girl g I o wag waiting OD the tables.
This afforded n„ n chance to observe
that Miss Mollies profile was very re-u
lar, her hair, wi.ru in two heavy braids,
dark and wavy, and that bet eyes matched
the color of her hair I knew from the
glimpse I hod of them as they smiled at
me Mcrtna tne cuucti cup.
Although I was not nn authority on tag
VnOjOCt of feminine charms, I ventured
B that the young lady was very
nice looking and marveled much at her
pretty ways and correct ■MM h amid BUI h
surroundings. We wen- in the mldsl of
an animated conversation, when the dOOf
opened nnd a youth in corduroy shooting
jacket lounged into the room, .
on his way to the fourth seal atonr table
a careless nixl to Maxwell and a heaming
smile on Miss Mnllie.
A few terse WQtdl from Maxwell in-formed
me that 1 was in the presence of
Mr. Shaw, who reptgggnted a ■took buying
linn in Chicago, and as I returned his IMIW
I felt that it would l«e a luxury to knock
that man down. Not that he was an ill
looking fellow by any means, for he was
something of a "ladles' man" in appear-suce,
but I felt that wo wore antagonistic.
1 doubt if he gave me -o much as a pass-ing
thought, for he devoted HnuiglftO tdlai
Brant, who, Unt on wholesale conquest,
distributed her bright glances with great
impartiality.
During the month following my arrival
business at the station wna quiet.'the stock
shipping season not yet having oonunouced.
A small band of cowlmy* would sometimes
dash up to the station, bteakneok pace, on
their wiry ponies, and although their broad
eombrena, clanking spurs and well filled
cartridge belts, ornamented with a gun
and perhaps a knife or two, gave them the
appearance of bandits, they seemed rather
a good natnnd act, if a bit lawless.
Now and then a copper lined face,
streaked With bright paint and surmount
ed by a ahock of straight black hair, would
peer nt me through the office window, ami
If I gave a atart of surprise it seemed to
affonl the noble nd man a certain amount
of amusement; then, after a prolonged
stare, he would grunt and stalk majestic
ally away. The event of t he day, however.
was the arrival of theWggf bound train at
night. The entire population was on hand
at this time, and no matter how* Mated
the train not a lounger left tho platform
until the hurrying, panting thing, trailing
Its way across the prairie like somo huge,
glistening serpent, was lost to view.
Meanwhile 1 had bean making great
strides in Miss Mollie's goisl graces, die
tanciug Shaw, who was a zealous applicant
for her favor. The country around about
had something of the picturosquene" of
ths Had Lands, although not so broken,
and at such times gg I ma foe from office
datfc -. Ml», IfoUle, mounted on bet nimble
black pony, and I on bar father's gray,
mound the hills and vales, returning with
appetitea that canned the oooh to sye ui
with scant favor. In nn eXC
(Menace l told her thai I was alone In the
world, with none but distant relatives.
She had g0 one but her father, her
mother having died when liolllc was a
child. "I was at School in Helena when
mamma died." she said, "and game dl
nvtly here with papa, where we have sine.-
lived." Thai explained the situation,
Miss gtollla had U-eu given advantages
evidentfy.
Coming In from a longer ride than usual
one evening wo found the whole settle
punt in an upnwr. Some twenty cowboy,
an BJ i ipottad camped within two miles of
the ptaOO awaiting daybreak to bring Into
the cornd 80u illW| of cattle. We dhs asaed
the matter at the supper table, and I re
marked that the genus cow ls>y, su fur us I
was aonneinted with him, di.i not sustain
his hard reputation.
"Wait until you see him drunk," was
liagw< ll'a rejoinder.
"Tlutt'a nlj swagger —mere braggado-cio,"
said Slinw. "J.--t them see that yon
are not afraid of them and they'll leave
you alone fast enough. Huscally beggars
though, the most of them."
ij'ivwell smiled quietly, and turning to
me observed, "ICven the cowboy has his
gOOd i raits; If he damages a piece of prop.
arty while drank ten to one he will walk
up and pay for it when he get* sober if it
take- his last cent."
"Cu'rous how respectful like they air
tew wlmmen," chimed in lirant. "Ain't
never seen one yit too drunk tew forgit his
manners when wimmen folks was around.
I redact onct—'twnnt nior'n a year ago, I
reckon—two on 'em got up n rumpus about
sulhiti In this very room, just afore dluiier.
One on 'em had tho drap on t'other, and
there they stood, like a couple of coyotes,
waitin fer a chance to spring, when my
little Moll, here, walked into the room.
Lonlt You should 'a seed 'em drop into
their cheers, like they'd N-en shot After
dinner they kirn over to this tablu and axed
her pardon, like real genta."
"That goes to prove what I said," re-marked
Shaw loftily. "If I had been
around here, Miss Mollic, the fellowsshould
have been kicked out."
Miss Mollic smiled her sweetest, and I
felt a wild desire to throttle some one, for
be it known she and I had bad n little tiff
that evening, and she was driving me to
the verge of desperation with her vagaries,
while Shaw appeared to be in the sixth
heaven and anticipated the seventh.
Shaw's hist rcmnrk was of course taken
for what It was worth, but we were des-tined
to remember that evening's OGttVer*
eat ion.
In the morning, bright and early, the
fun began. The cars, ordend by tele
graph, were waiting in long rows opposite
the slock yards, and away off In the dis-tance,
Just coming over tho brow of the
hill, was a widespread brown mass that
circled and eddied nearer and nearer until
wo could finally make out the w ihlly toss-ing
heads and h.-ar the lowing that was
like the rumbling of distant thunder.
Around and around the herd the cow hoys
swung their nimble ponies, ever aiming "to
keep the cattle in a compact bunch and nt
the siiiim lime urging them forwanl. Tho
sunlight shone on the fon-st of gleaming
horns and brightened the clouds of dust in
their wake into golden mist, Now and
then one of the animals would break away
from the herd and dash off, oloeely fol-lowed
by a cowboy, lasso •" hand, and ere
the oraatnre was secured and dragged
lack, panting, to the herd, an exciting
race was often witnessed.
As they neared the corral the cowlmys
fell lo the rear, and spurring tho animals
toward with "quirts" nr long lashed
whips they were driven into a vast pan, y"
shaped, the entrance being the mouth of
tho V. This in turn opened to another
large pen, square, and at the further side
of the square were ranged six small pens.
Once seeured in tho square pen it was no
difficult matter to drive the nattle Into the
smaller penaend iheuceupa chute to the
cars. Kight in among the trampling hoofj
and tossing horns the horses were spurred.
nnd the cruel, cutting whips were laid on
right nnd left, driving the boaOtC into the
small In closures, whereon high platforms
Stood other OOWbOJI with long handled
prods, which they used effectively when
ever a particularly unruly beast declined
to go up the chute. It was a novel and
exciting scene to my unwesternized eyea,
and even Shaw admitted that it was "quite
a sight."
After the arduous task of loading the
cattle was done the cowboys vaultid into
their saddles and disappeared in the direc-tion
of the saloons.
"There'll be tho dem w to pay by night,"
announced Maxwell oracularly. They kept
clear of tho station during the day, hut
when I went over to the evening train the
place swarmed with them. They were
rather frisky and made a number of jokes
at my expense, but offend no demonstra-tion,
thinking, doubtless, that a slight hoy
of my years wasu't worth scaring. Shaw-had
declined to accompany us that even-ing,
and whether It was MKs Mollies
smiles that held him captive or a sneaking
fear of the bolstgrona crowd, I could m,t
determine. I should have explained that
this was Shaw's first venture into the re
mote west; consequently he, like myself,
had never braved the cowboy in bis lair.
The night train came thundcrini; in on
time. "There's a new conductor on," mid
Maxwell In my ear. "The boys have
winded it nnd there'll be music."
Sure enough. Scarcely had the conduct-or
entered the office for orders when
"Ping!" sounded a gun and out went the
light. What followed bent bedlam let
loose. "PopI Pop Pop!" went the guns,
and in tho interval we could hear tho con-ductor's
howls for mercy. As soon as pos-sible
Maxwell struck a light, nnd at the
■Ight of that pallid, trembling WTCtcq I
shout went up. "Dig out" was the order,
and he dug, but before ho reached t In-door
"Ping" went a gun, and a neatly
aimed bullet clipped a piece off his boot-heel.
"Pop;" nnd the other heel was
winged, fhe train pulled out in short or
der.
I found next morning that the shots
fired In tho dark were "blanks," but how
was tho conductor to know that?
in ttie course ol time 1 became accus-tomed
to the ant ies of these knights of the
the only testimonial of n-gard
which I received from theni being a bullet
hole through the crown of my Derhv. I
was glad to get off with that, and m defer-ence
10 their wall known prejudice, I specd-tnged
the Derby for an orthodox
sombrero. I daily became more and mure
Interested in .Mis, hfollle, and we got on
capitally together so long gg I r.-frai I
from sentiment, but any exhibition of ten-derness
on my part always reealtcd in
snubs or, worse yet, In trrimfirmrnmgnmonl
of my rival.asl mentally styled Shaw.
This was very distracting when a fellow
was beginning to have serious thoughts of
settling in life, and devote my effort! toll
as I would. I saw no way of securing the
owner of the black eyes for the "party ol
'< 1 part." In the forlorn hope of
Mggglng her father's influence I took
Branl Into my occuUi ooe, I night have
■pared myself the trouble.
He was a stout, comfortable norl of a
man. with tho air of one who had been
"manager' all his life. It was plain to the
nnd observer thai lOsa Mollic was
the apple of his eye and that her word WBJ
law, we had merry times at the old ho
tel. for there was quite a party of young
Iieoplc when tho settlement rallied, so we
igd dame.*, impromtu concerts, randy
pulls, and more frequently than anything
elae horeebaeh excursions.
A favorite rendezvous was the "Arm-chair,"
a huge rock within easy walking
distance of the hotel, and whenever we pk>
nn kid at that place Miss Mollie was wont
to enthrone herself in the chair, and none
dtspnted her possession, for aho queened it
over us all right royally. I found stil]
another source of amusement. Small
game was abundant, and I developed a lik-ing
for sport, although my success at that
pastime was but indiffen-nt.
Our "affair" at this period was in a most
critical condition, Shaw and I being neck
anil neck, with the odds n little in Shaw's
favor. Mollie's spirits went up as mine
went down, and In a moment of inspiration
she suggested that wp outdo all our pre-vtonaefforteand
haven grand ball. The
suggestion was received with enthusiasm,
and preparations were at once commenced.
The in Brest t< w ii of any si/.e. tilendive,
was ransacked fur gay bunting, Hags, etc.,
and when the hare walls of the big dining
room blossomed out the place won* a festive
appearance quite foreign to its usual aspect.
The day before the ball word was received
that the largest consignment of cattle yet
shipped was oil the way and would doubt-i.
us by morning. There was M-ri-
DUI talk of postponing the ball, but the
Majority overruled tho suggestion and the
work wem merrily on.
In the morning the planenraaastir,and
all through the day "bunches" of Battle
Wen driven in until a thousand of them
Ware lowing hi the sidetracked stock cars.
It was a big <la> 's work, but we hustled it
through, for right behind this consignment
marched another, and we were obliged to
keep things cleared up. The ball wgg
therefore delayed until late In the evening.
The myriad lanterns secured to Illuminate
the scene had long bean lighted when at
length we straggled in. Urant, with much
ftoraplngand flourishing of the bow, was
"tuning up,"when g knock sounded at tho
door and Shaw wna informed that he was
wanted at the station.
tit down toward pouting Mollie
and whjgpergd. BQincthlng that might have
been excuses, but which did u.,t dispel the
frown upou her brow. I at onco Pfgfdneq
my good humor. I bail found, to my great
disgust, thai Shaw was to open the ball
with Mollie and hail made no effort to se-cure
a partner, preferring to sulk it out in
,i corner. It took mo but a moment to
MtM this golden opportunity, and liefore
Shaw crossed the outer threshold I was
leading Miss Mollie to the top of the room.
It might have bean live minutes that we
hU*»l there laughing and chatting. The
fiddle had souuded the first note when the
great door burhtopen and in rushed Sbaw,
hat leee and gasping for breath.
"For Cod's sake, hldel" ho shouted.
"The hoys have laken ihe town. They are
shooting nt everything In sight, nnd a
do/en of them put after me." Scarcely
■are the words s|«>kcn when sip went a
bullet right through the window pane, and
tho old eight day clock on the opposite
wall stood stock still, with a bullet in its
vitals. At Shaw's first words Urant drop-ped
his fiddle and drew tho Iron bar across
the outer door. Kverything was In confu-sion.
I found Mollie clinging to me, and I
rcmemlier telling her, incoherently, that I
would protect her with my life. Then 1
saw something that drove all other Ideas
from my head. In one corner of the room
was a trapdoor leading to a dugout below,
where potutoes were stored.
I saw Shaw stoop and raise the door, and
as ho sprang Into the hole the door closed
notoeleeely after him. A tremor ran
through the slender form I was supporting
with my arm. I glanced at Mollie, whose
eyes hud followed my own, and—would
you believe It*—she was laughing.
At. this moment there was a thundering
knock ut the door. Stepping quietly up,
but making no motion lo draw the bar,
the landlord asked, "What do yer want,
boys?"
A volley of shots was the reply, and then
a \ Ice shouted, "(Ijien up it yer don't
want to get a scorchin," this interlarded
with epithets more forcible than polite.
ileforc 1 fairly knew what she was ubout
Mollie sprang from my side, and fearlessly
drawing the great bar stood alone upon
tho threshold. .M.i,\ well stepped forward
as If to protect her, but she waved hiin
back. "Gentlemen," she said calmly, "I
have a few friends here tonight, and the
hotel is full. Will you be so kind as to go
away quietly,"
There was a moment's silence, then a
shout, bat every man of them faced about
and marched, leaving pretty Mollie with
flushed i hei ks mistress of the situation.
In the confusion that ensued Shaw crept
out of the cellar, and I think no one but
dMolUe noticed his hasty exjt.
Oine more the fiddle sounded, once more
we look our places, and nothing occurred
to further mar the evening's enjoyment.
When Shaw, a little later, claimed Mol-lie's
hand for a promised dance, she bent
on him such a look of scorn and contempt
that Ihe few words she added were not
needed to complete his utter confusion.
There was a vacant place at the table set
for four next morning—we had seen the
last of Shaw.
With my hated rival n-tlred from the
Held 1 now felt confidant that I should
eventually win Mollie and redoubled my
aJtentiOMaccordingly. A week after the
eventful ball I sullied forth one afternoon
when work was dull, shotguu in hand,
Unt on rabbit >[,.«. Unconsciously I took
the path to the Armchair, our old time rea>
deevous.
Babbits were not plentiful that day, and
so busily occupied was I in castle building
that before 1 was aware of It I stumbled

me from view, and I think I was instilled

about the neck of Maxwell, whowuskneel-ing

Kven in my dggad condition I recognized
the propriety of getting awny.and without
waiting to set-ure the rabbit steiv I rushed
back to the station and telegraphed my
resignation. There was a moment of em
barreoement as we met nt the table that
night, then Maxwell stepped forwanl and
said. "Congratulate me, llaxter; Mollie

When Baby was sick, wo gare her Caatorla.
When ahe was a Child, she cried for Castor!*.
When sho became Miss, she clung lo Caatorla.
When she hod Children, aho garo them Caatorla.
Hood's Snrsnpnrlllu Rescued Their
Child from Scrofula.
For Scrofula. Salt Rheum, and all
other foul humors in the blood of

la an unequalled remedy. Head this:
" We are so thankful to Hood's Sarsapa-rilla
for what It did (or our little girl that ws
make this statement for the beaiuHef >»her
anxious parents and
Suffering Children
Our girl was a beautiful bahy, fair and plump
and healthy. But when sho was two years
old, sores broke out behind her ears and
spread rapidly over her head and forehead
down to her eyes, and Into her neck. We
consulted ono of thobcstphyslclans In Brook-lyn,
but nothing did her any good. The doc-tors
said it was eattsed by a scrofula humor
In the blood. Her head became
One Complete Sore
oSensIre to the smell and dreadful to look at.
Her general health waned and she would lay
In a large chiilr ull day Hllhout any llfo or en-ergy.
The sores caused irrai llcblMsj and
burning, .so Hint nt times wo had to restrain
her humls to prevent scratching. For 3 years
She Suffered Fearfully
with thli terrible humor. Being urged to try
Hood's Harsapartlla we did ao. We soon
noticed Unit ahe had more llfo aud appetite.
The medicine seemed to drive out more of
tho humorforashort time, hut Itsoon began to
subside, the ilehlag nod burnt.a censed,
and hi a few months her head became entirely
clear of the sore. She h now perfectly well,
has no evidence or the humor, and her skin Is
clear and healthy. Hlie seems Ilka an en-tirely
different child. In health and general
auiieaiauce, from what she was before laking

Sarsaparilla
