The- Foolkiller sat in the shade of a
tree after a hard dav of toil in killing ;
a the men who do nothing but grumble-
j and uselessly encumber the soil. "I
j there -nv one else?" the Foolkilhr
cried an then he cut a big caper as he
thought of the man who never sub
scribed, but always borrows the paper.
The Foolkiller wiped his trusty old
blade on the skirt of his garment gory,
and started after the infernal fiend who
says "that reminds me of a story.' The
Foolkiller paused in his hird day's
work and sought rest from his ar
duous labor; but his joy bubbled up
as he thought of the morn, when he'd
murder our borrowing neighbor. Oh
the Foolkiller' s work is a righteous
task, and if pursued until his task was
done, very few would see to-morrow's
morn fewer still its settisg sun. Walt

a giading outfit consisting of eight

camp a few miles west of town where,
they would await work on the Nebras

by the contractors on the Santa Fe
with whom they had been working
would be commenced in a very short
time, probably by the 10th of the
