"That's all riht," Fmoke placated.

the contract, and Wild Water sullenly
signed, received the trial two dozen in
a tin pail, puileil on n:s mittens and
opened the door.
"Cioodby. you roblers." he growled

"ITaven't you found any osjrs yet?"
she murmured plaintively to the waiter.
"No. i ma'am," came the answer.
"They i say somebody's cornered every

you. But the fellow that's got the cor

It was at this juncture that Will

and, with one hand on his shoulder,
drew his head down. "Look here,
Slavovitch," Wild Water whispered
hoarsely, "I turned over a couple of
dozen eggs to you last night. Where
are they?"
"In the safe, all but that six I have
all thawed and ready for you any
time you slug out."
"I don't want 'em for myself." Wild
Water breathed in a still lov.-i.-r voice.
"Shirr 'eiu up and present 'em to Miss
Arral there."
"111 attend to it personally myself,"
Slavovitch assured him.

so that she could say something to the

Smoke felt the kick of Wild Water's
moccasiiied foot under the table.

whispered agonizingly.
And with sidelong glances they saw

wasn't here I'd shake hands, Smoke,
I'm that grateful. You ain't a robber;
you're a philanthropist"
Smoke returned jubilantly up the hill
to the cabin only to find Shorty in
black despair.
"It's all off with the big Swede," he
groaned. "The corner's busted. What
d'ye think I run into? A geezer with
three thousan" eggs d'yo get me?

"We took one out behind a Ice jam

know what he was doin when I left
his cabin? Drawin' a sign cf eggs for
sale. Said he'd give us first choice at
ten a throw till 2 p. in., and after that
if we didn't come across he'd bust the
market higher 'n a kite."
"It's all right," Smoke said cheer

our hands at the same price. If you
can get them cheaper wiry, we make
a profit as well, flave them here by
not later than 2 o'clock. Borrow Colo
nel Howie's dogs find take our team."
Smoke found Wild Water at the M.
& M., and a stormy half hour ensued.
"I warn yon we've picked up some
more eggs." Smoke said after Wild
Water had acrreed to bring bis dust to
the cabin at 2 o'clock and pay on deliv
ery. "You're Inck'er at finding eggs thnn
me," Wild Flower admitted. "Now.
how many eggs have you got now an'
how much dust do 1 tote up the bill?"
Smoke consulted his notebook. "As it
stands now. according to Shortv'J fig
ures, we've 3,'M2 eggs. Multiply by
ten"
'Forty thousand dollars!" Wild Wa
ter bellowed. "You said there was only
something like DuO eggs. It's a stick
up. I won't stand for itT ,
Smoke drew the contract from his
pocket and pointed to the pay on deliv
ery. "No mention is made of the num
ber cf eggs to be delivered. You agreed
to pay $10 for every egg we delivered
to you. Well, we've got the eggs, and
a signed contract is a signed contract
Honestly, though. Wild Water, we
didn't know about those other eggs
until afterward. Theu we had to buy'
them in order to make our corner
good."
For five long minutes, in choking
silence. Wild Water fought a battle
with himself, then reluctantly gave in.
"I'm in bad." he said brokenly. "I'll
be there at 2 o'clock. But $40,000!
At 1:C0 Shorty arrived with Gante
reaux's eggs. "We pretty near double
our winnings." Shorty told Smoke as
they piled the soap boxes Inside the
cabin. "1 holds 'tin down to $s, and aft
er he cussed loco in French he falls for
it Now, that's $2 clear profit to us for
each egg."
Promptly at 2 o'clock Shorty, peep
ing, saw Wild Water coming up the
hill. When he entered he was brisk
and businesslike.
"Bring on them eggs, you pirates,"
he commenced. "An' after this day. If
you know what's good for you, never
mention eggs to me again."
They began on the miscellaneous as
sortment of the original corner, ail
three men counting. When 200 had
been reached Wild Water suddenly
cracked an egg on the edge of the table
and opened it deftly with his thumbs.
"Hey, hold on!" Shorty objected.
"It's my egg. ain't It?" Wild Water
snarled.. "I'm payin $10 for it. ain't I?
But I ain't buyin no pig in a poke.
When I cough up ten bucks an egg I
want to know what I'm gettia."
Wild Water looked and smiled.
"That's a good egg. Gimme a pail. I'm
goin' to tut it myself for supper."
Thrice again Wild Water cracked
good eggs experimentally and put them
in the pail beside him.
"Two more than you figured.
Shorty," he said at the end or the
count "Nine hundred an sixty-four,
not sixty-two."
"My mistake." Shorty acknowledged
handsomely. "We'll throw 'em in for
gcod measure."
"Guess you can afford to," Wild
Water accepted grimly. "Pass the batch

receipt Smoke."" I

the side pockets he drew forth two
sacks of dut. so rotund and long
that tliey resembled bologna sausages.
When the first batch had been paid
for there remained in the gold sacks
not more than several hundred dollars".
A soap box was carried to the table,
and the count of the $3,000 began. At
the end of 100 Wild Water struck an
egg sharply against the edge of the ta
ble. The resultant sound was like that
of the striking of a sphere of solid
marble.
"Frozen solid," he remarked.
"Iluhl" said Shorty. "It ought to
be solid, seein' it has just been freight
ed up from Forty Mile. It'll take a
nx to bust it"
Smoke brought the ax and Wild Wa
ter split the egg cleanly in half. The
appearance of the egg's interior was
anything but satisfactory. Smoke felt
a premonitory chill. Shorty was more
valiant He held one of the'halves to
his nose.
"Smells all right" he said.
"But it looks all wrong." Wild Wa
ter contended. "An how can it smell
when the smell's frozen along with
the rest of it? Wait a minute."
He put the two halves into a frying
pan and placed the latter on the front
lid of the hot stove. Then the three
men. with distended, questing nostrils,
waited In silence. Slowly an unmis
takable odor began to drift through
th.e room.
"Throw it out!' Smoke cried, gasp
ing. "What's the good?" asked Wild Wa
ter. "We've got to sample the rest."
"Not In this cabin." Smoke cough
ed and conquered a qualm. "Chop
them open, and we can test by look
ing at them. Throw it out. Shorty!
Throw it out! And leave the door
open .'"
Box after box was opened: egg after
egg. chosen at random, was chopped in
two, and every egg earned the same
message of hopeless, irremediable de
cay. "I won't ask you to eat em. Shorty,"
Wild Water jeered, "an', if you don't
mind. I can't get outa here too quick.
My contract called for good eggs. If
you'll loan me a sled an" team I'll haul
them good ones away before they get
iontaminated."
Smoke helped in loading the sled.
"Say. how long you been holdin that
corner?" was Wild Water's parting
gibe.
Smoke made no reply, and, with one
glance att his partner, proceeded to
fling the soap boxes out into the snow.
"Say. Shorty, how much did you say
you paid for that three thousand?"
Smoke queried gently.
"Eight dollars. Don't talk to me. 1
can figger as well as 30U. We lose
seventeen thousan on the flutter, if
anybody should ride up 011 a dog sled
an' ask you. I flgge red that out while
waitin' for the first egg to smell."
Smoke pondered :i few minutes, then
again broke s;loi:ee. "Say. Shorty,
$10,000 gold weighs 200 pounds. Wild
Water borrowed our sled anil team to
haul away hi eggs. Ho came up the
hi'l without a sled. T!io two sacks

them?"

get 'em here for delivery. An' now.
Smoke, lemme ask you o:ie civil ques
tion. What did you say was the par

Smoke was casting about to begin
the preparation fur supper when Cola
nel Bowie knocked at the door, handed
Smoke a letter and went on to his own
cabin.
"Did you see his face?" Shorty raved
"He was almost Imstin to keep it
straight. It's the big ha-ha for you
an' me. Smoke. We won't never dast
show our faces again in Dawson."
The letter was from Wild Water, and
Smoke read it aloud:

FORTY YEARS AGO.
Our good friend, the blacksmith,
Robert Donnelly, came to the rescue
yesterday with the cash. Thanks,
Robert.
Hon. Sam Chapman, D. H. Wheeler,
John Barnes and others came up from
the legislature Saturday and spent
Sunday among Christians.
Ross Vanatta, we are sorry to learn,
leaves the poor farm next spring, and
Crawford Eikenberry goes to the poor
house for a year or so. Funny work,
this; the poorest farm in Cass county
Iias the best house on it, and is worth
a good deal of money.
Last Wednesday night, after the
c'ose of the firemen's dance, a sleight
load of the dancers from the country
came near meeting with a serious ac
cident by the sleigh sliding off a
bridge. The sleigh was badly broken,
but fortunately, none of the occupants
were injured, with the exception of a
few slight bruises.
If the bill for a geological survey
should pass we hope that a thorough
examination will be made for coal on
the lands of Joseph Shera, at Rock
Bluffs, as Mr. Shera has spent over
$2j000 of his own money in the at
tempt to settle the fact whether there
is coal on the Missouri or not, and it
would seem but fair that he should re
ceive some recompense.
The Plattsmouth Literary and De

last Tuesday evening for the purpose

necessary business the following ques

thence to Missouri, and afterward to
Texas, thus keeping in advacne of

Sidney Miner also dropped in and
said ''howdy."
Our friend, James Roberts, had a
handsome New Year's present. Boy,
19 pounds or less.
Mr. and Mrs. Ben Droste gave a big
New Year's dinner, and axed the Her
ald down to heip eat it. We are very
sorry that other engagements pre
vented our acceptance.
One branch of business that has
been sadly neglected of late in our
city has experienced quite a reaction
the past few days, we allude to the
exchange and sale of real estate. In
addition to Mr. Charles Lazenby's
sale of his house and lots to Mr. Pep
perberg, Mr. A. Lazenby purchased
the Riggs property, east of Mayor
Livingston's, and sold it to Mr. L. P.
Davidson. We are glad to learn of
such sales. Go on with the good work,
gentlemen.
A visit to our, neighboring town of
Weeping Water satisfied us that her
business men are alive. A little sketch
of their business may be interesting to
cur readers, as showing what energy
may- do when properly applied. Mr.
Thorngate has bought the stock of
furniture formerly owned by J. Chase,
justice of the peace, and is fitting up
a new stock, with which to supply the
good people of that vicinity. Next on
the west is the well known store of
Messrs. Reed Brothers, the pioneer
merchants, who keep an immense
stock of general merchandise of ewry
description, clothing, dry goods, hard
and soft ware, and in fact everything
the farmer wants. Opposite is' the
wide-awake firm of Fleming & Race,
who also keep an immense stock of
general merchandise, and who have a
trade in proportion to their stock. Mr.
Potter represents the jewelry trade
and furnishes orchestral music with
his finely trained string band, which
we had the pleasure of listening to on
Ft iday evening. Opposite the jeweh-y
is the drug store of Mr. Barnes, who
has a neat and well supplied stock of
drugs, medicines, perfumes, combs,
brushes, cigars, tobacco, nuts, cenfec
tionaries, and in fact a full supply of
everything usually connected with an
apothecary's shop. Two millinery
stores have out their signs and furnish
their patrons with goods in the latest
styles; lack of time and natural timid
ity prevented our calling at these
ladies' emporiums. A first-class shoe
store and shop, kept by John Marshall,
who furnishes understanding to order.
A blacksmith and harness shop, and
a good hotel complete the furnishing
houses. DwEutler, the genial eclectic
physician, attends to the comfort and
health of tha citizens, which secures
them, we hope, from the ravages of
disease. Near the town are located
the flouring mills of Clinton & John
son, and Hubbard & Tewksbury, who
supply the principal ingredient need
ed in making the staff of life, not only
to the citizens cf that locality, but
also send large amounts to Platts
mouth and other places. - The really

From Saturday's Ijaily.
This morning Isaac Dye, one of the
leading farmers of the vicinity of
Union, was in the city looking after
the closing of the deal whereby he
becomes the owner of a forty-acre
tract of land near his farm on the
Weeping Water bottom southeast of
Union. This is quite a nice piece of
land and is near the farm Mr. Dye is
at present residing on, and has been
owned by Mrs. Amelia Haldeman of
this city. Mr. Dye was accompanied
to Plattsmouth by J. C. Niday, an
other of Liberty precinct's prosperous
and leading citizens.
