J'lny u I. lining ( innuof PoUrr ttllli Tno I'ulcfniM-N. Wlien the Union Pacific train pulled Into Elko , Nov. , and the passengers wore lu- formcd that It wonld bo hold thcro for eovcral hours , on account of a freight wreck ahead , there was Intense dlngust , re lates < ho New York Telegram , and a great many unpleasant things were en Id con cerning everybody , M'oro the board ol directors to the fccilon boas. Mark Timll of the San Francisco Alcazar management , and George Davln , who comes cuat every summer to buy goods , were particularly frank and outspoken in their criticisms , and finally nettled back gloomily to kill tlmo In somber Introspection , It was not until a tralu hand casually mentioned that the I'lutca from a neighbor ing reservation were near-by , engaged In a colossal gambling festival , that the belated travelers emerged from their gloom , The fame of these Indian poker games , the skill of the gamblers and the reckless stakes Involved were not unknown to them , And o when Mr , Davis rtbrew out a feeler about going over to look on Mr , Thai ! ac cepted the very admirable suggestion with out argument. It vtaa really moat plctur- crjue , novel and exciting , Tlid bravest of the Pluto bucku , headed by a grandson of the tricky old war chief , Wlunemucca , were deep in the gtmo. A gaudy blanket was spread upon the ground and the dusky gamblers eat huddled nbflut It , denting nnd conning the grrls ; cards \\lth Impftsulve stolidity Dltn ol stick served us substitutes for chlpn. There WM real money at stake , and nheu n In dian uport went shy of legnl tender h had a pony or two , nnd certain personal belongings to fall back on. A Plute Indian will gamble the shirt oft hM back. The pnlcfAces from the CSoldrn ( | Atc began to feel violently Intcicsted , They know- few things , or thought they did , About th natlonnl game. Everybody Ignored them , No ono envo them even n fleeting gtnnce , The IMutes are not a cordial , courteous ot demonstrative people. Finally , unnblc to longer bear the strain , Mr. Thall rather diffidently suggested thnl himself nnd friend would not be whollj averse to taking n hand , A grunt ot AMtnl ran around the table , or , to bo more accu rate , the gnudy blanket , and the circle was augmented by two. The war of races was very stubbornly contested , but when the Pullman ear portei came over to notify- them that the truck was cleared Messrs. Thrill nnd Davis lind accumulated nbout all the ready money In the tribe , to say nothing of various lethal weapons , buckskin shirts , war bonnets nnd specimens ct bendwork. The porter could scracely stagger beneath their welRht. WlnnemucM , who was pretty well cleaned out , put aside his stolen ! reserve sufficiently o Itnploro the travelers for Just one more ackpot. He hadn't much money , ho con- 'cssed ' , but ho was willing to stake his wlfo and two children and a piebald pony. Ho manifested great disappointment when It was explained that the train wouldn't wnlt. Dcsplto all the refinements ot civilization and the wise admonitions of the mlsslon.iry workers , the Plutes had not learned the dangers ot going up against a palefftso trav eling man and n theatrical nunngor. nut experience Is always purchasable nnd they know better now. If thcro Is any exceptional suffering nd destitution nt the Wlnnomucca agency the coming winter and another Indian uprising should occur Messrs. Thnll and Davis will linvo the guilty knowledge thnt they wcra largely responsible .for the contributor } causes. OOOII TBST OF M3IIVC. n IMnw lint In n Wnrifl Frontier Tot n. "You wouldn't think , would you , thnt the mere wearing of a plug hat on n single oo cnslon would , constitute the most remarka ble test of nerve that the famous Luke Shorl ever underwent especially after roflcctliiR thnt Shcft , na .marshal . of some of the worst towns In the southwest , hrtd been compelled to kill na many as twenty-two men ? " nald a gen.tlemnn . connected with the Indian scfvlca to a Wnshlncton Star man. "Well , It was , and Short several times told me so hlmpoU. It happened In Dodge City , when Dodge City was nbout the worst town on the ninp ot the world , let alone In this country. Short had ibeen spending some tlmo In La Junta , Colo. , nnd ono day ho met there a frelghtet who had just got In .from . Dodge City. Shorl got irito talk with the freighter and asked him about the town he had Just left behind him. ' 'I hear It's right smart bad down thnt way , ' said he. 'How about it ? Was think ing some of going there. ' " 'Stay away , ix > dncr , ' replied the freighter. 'They'll git you sure. They git two or three every night In Dodgo. Put It to a eastern feJler th' other dny f'r nothlti' but wearln' n plug hat. ' " " 'That so ? ' said Short , who was unknown to the freighter. 'I guess I'll co thcro to morrow , and I guess I'll wear n. plug hat when I net there.1 "The ifrelshter sized the small , uandy- hearded Luke up out of the tall of his eye , seemingly itrylns to determine whether ho was crazy , or just a bluffer. " 'I cot $500 thot says you won't EC to no Dodge with a plug hat on , ' he Bald , pulling out bin roll. " 'You're on , ' said Short , pulling out bin wad instantly. "Tho freighter was puzzled to have his wager picked up so quickly , but he stood for It , and both men put up their money with the La Junta agent of the express company. They arranged to start for Dodge City th next week. Short sent up fo Denver for a $10 Bilk hat , nnd It reached him a couple o ! daya Inter. Two days after that they took the train In company for Dodge , the freighter being still unaware of Short's Identity na the quickest man on the trigger In the whota west , as well as the most dangerous man In n. knlfo flght. As the train drew close to Dodge City ithe freighter raid to Short : " Todner , yo' had better toke my advlco and not git off with tbet thing on yo' head. Yo' kin pull yo' bet down. I don't know nothln' nbout yo' fnmbly , or even If yo' got one , but cf the hoys shoot yo' up , as they're boun' t' do , it'll sort o' stick by me , nnd I ain't no killer myself. Hotter git off with yo' regular everyday hat on. ' "Luko smiled. " 'The bet stands , ' said ho , and ho rcnchcd down to 'tho ' bandbox , pulled out the silk lant , stroked it With the sleeve of his blue flannel ehlrt and put it on. illo had two guna strapped to his wnlst , top boots und all that sort of a tnako-up , but yet , with It all , b looked the quiet , unassuming lltle chnp he always was. "There was the usual crowd of men around the station when the train pulled up , nnd < the usual number of them were drunk and boisterous. " 'I reckon I'll stay aboard an' watch th' game , ' eald the freighter when ho saw thi crowd. " 'AH right , ' nld Short , nnd then ho stepped out to the car platform , a queer pic ture , with the plug hat sat jauntily on ono eldo of lil head and his make-up of a frontiersman. " 'Howdy , Luke , ' said 'Lafe' Towers , the night marshal , who was In the crowd at tha station. Towers was the only man thera who knew Short , and he didn't Bay anything about it. "Tho eyes of every man In that crowd of nearly a hundred man were on Luke Short os he. calmly stepped from the train , and not a man sold a word , There was some thing In Short's serious countenance , In his determined carriage , nnd probably In the incongruity of the shiny silk hat In com bination with the blue llanncl shirt and the other strictly western effects In dress , that seemed to hold tWem off. It would have 1 > oen quite In keeping with the customs and practices of Dodge City for the bunch of men at the station to shoot thnt Bilk hat Into ribbons as Short deliberately walked down the main street , without once turn ing around , but thls'ls just the thing that didn't happen. It didn't happen nt any stage of the game , either ; there wasn't even a single shot flred. Short walked Into tbo 'Glided Grub' saloon , still with that shiny hat set on ono ear , strolled up to the bar and asked for a drink. There -were a lot of bad men In the saloon , but they juat looked. They didn't say anything about the hat. and they didn't shoot. Short took his drink , and then he removed the hat and held It lu his bands for a mlmito. ' 'I don't seem to get any actln on thli thing , ' be soldi out loud , 'and no It's ot no- further use for me. ' 'Whereupon he placed It on the floor , brim down and jumped on It until It was pulp. Meanwhile tbo freighter had followed him up , noticing that there was no shoot- Ine , and be took Short by the hand. " 'Podnor , ' ald bo , yo' win and yo' kin telegraft tb' man nt La Junta t' Bend th' dust along to yo' . Wile I respecka yo' for lioln' a man o' nerve , 1 kaln't roapeck 70' f'r beln' b d n fool , w'lch the same , begglu' V'r pardln' , I thlnku yo' Is.
