SAGEBRUSH SKETCHES.
Some of the Peculiar Ambi

How a Ohook'Querrilla Became

It roiiiains to bo oxplnincd jnst why
every now mining camp locates , foncoa
in and roughly lays out in walks cut
through the sagebrush , n buryi < g
ground iminediiUuly after tlio camp
itself ia located. The first saloon
having boon opened , nnd the rude
code of mining Inws adopted , the
locator's next duty , nlwaya performed ,
is to establish n burying ground on
Rome eonvunient knoll , and then wait
with scarcely concealed impatience for
an opportunity to appropriately dedicate -
cato it. Thcro may uo some sort of
natural sequence obaorvod in the first
order of events' ! Thu saloon , ( ho la\va ,
the burying-ground. The first two
are the chief clomonta of cause , con
tributing toward the subsequent
events which , malco the existence of
the buryints-ground a wise public
measure. ( The decisive argument of
the pistol , t.nninating a game of
V cards in the saloon , and the scatter-
I ing remarks of thu double-barreled
shotcun , upholding a claim under the
\ accepted code of laws , furnish the opportunity -
* . portunity for a proper opening , so to
\ say , of the cemetery. The first burial
is a sort of first-night-of-the-opora
affair. A mining camp with an un
occupied cemetery sots up no claim as
a live or promising camp It realizes
its youth and inexperience and the
hollowness of its pretensions , and
keeps discreetly quiet.
THE VIllST KU.UM :
And the subsequent planting of the
late lamented , therefore , are matters
of importance and great importance
And tjrcab cause for congratulations.
The dweller in civilized lands , and the
inquiring tenderfoot , have long mis
apprehended this question. The Hip-
pant writers on an uninformed press
have contented themselves with the
theory that a ruining camp's pride in'
the possession ) of bad men and sure
shots , was in tlie notoriety their deeds
gave the camp. How unjust , unkind
and superficial ) It is not In the
notoriety they I ring , but the yeoman
servicp they d > in. populating tlio
burying-g oundjthnt make the .bad
men esteemed fitizonp and objects of
pride. When , Aurora , Nevada , _ firat.
bloomed forth ( s a mining camp in all
the glory of throe saloons , each run
ning two ganiUina games , ono frame
tand cotton-wa'l ' hotel , and various
> promising mi&s , there was still an
unsatisfied lofging , a reaching out
after a highel and nobler plane of
existence ; forji week had passed since
the cemetery { was laid out , yet it re
mained uninhibited. Pioneer citizens ,
who had locata in the camps weeks
before avortedtheir eyes in conscious
insignificance When the now .arrivals
anxiously inqlired the number of
burials. The dgcs were .rich in free
gold , to bo sut'l and'capital froifttjan
; o"wasft seeking inveatinehls1/
The road to Vson was being made
passable for he vy freight teams , and
one ot the saloj a were already Gelling 'ti
whiskey for a b a glass ! Yet where-
in lay the glorjj ) f all this , with an un-
occupied cein iory mocking tho'
promise of a right future ? It is
needless then , < describe the feelings
of the camp wffiii , ono night , a prominent
inont citizen slot "Guerrilla" Gibson

Yet next to tht citizen who had ai

making him dead , the corpse \teulf re
ceived the groafcct ' < mount of respect

took possession of tlio camp' . Indus

in. After that tha burying ; 'ground

system about it As has iho
of a woman learning to play lawn ten
nis. But Dill learned the game , nnd ,
with a superior aptitude for gambling ,
beat thorn at it , in such odd hours as
ho could spare away from his own
taro-tablo. The Indians playodj lost
again and again , and then thought the
matter over. Early ono moriuni a
squaw entered the saloon wliero Bill
dealt faro , and asked the bar keeper
for all the unused panks of cards lie
had on hand. Thcro wore twenty-
live p.icks , which she purchased with
out n word and walked away. An
hour afterward she came back , weep
ing bitterly , followed by n stalwart
buck , who throw down twenty-four of
the parks , mid explained , apparently
in a lordly rage , that the squaw wtss si
"hoop big-a fool-a. " She had been
told to buy only ono 'pack. The bn
keeper j charged the Indian tlirqu
prices ] for the one pack , and good-
naturedly i returned tho'inonoy for th' *
rest-sis i thcrd was nlways si ready sil >
for | them. /
The next day after that Long Bsl
struck f n rich Tiuto poker game on
sunny ; side of a vacant lot. Ho t
a hand and lost. Ho sent n Piutojl'oy
to | the saloon for a lia / dozen juckj of
cards. ( In n mining camp a jjikor
dock is not used for iuoro thai four
hands j around. ) Hill * continttB to
lose j , and sent for more cards , tfr tlw
Indiana ] had none. I To lost cvoijlhing
ho ) had with him. - Then he gr.l mad ,
went to the saloon aild returned with
all the money ho could borrow * l'k ° '
wise v ith the remaining pack 6f cards.
The game grew in sixo and htoreat.
The jlaying ) was on ai > old red blanket
stretched on the ground,1' around
which the players squatted bross-lcg-
leged. I Hack of thorn stood n circle of
squaws , papoose laden , nnd tie picture
was completed as to tlio figjrcs by n ,
lot l of skulking yellow dogi , so dear
to { the Indian youth'p heart. Pack
after pack of cards was opaied , dealt
nnd thrown away , and st'll Hill lost.
The bucks' faces were stolid , the
sqaws' inflexible and the pipoosos' immovable \
movable ; but Bill's was a fmo study 0 %
rage and surprise. *
Hill's last dollar wont with the last'
deal of the last deck. When ho'rq'
turned to the sahjon , and was steady
ing his nerves with several fingers ijf
brandy , the barkeeper remarked : "I
didn't know , Bill , when you bought'all
those cards , that yot.'d return 'cm un
used , like Pinto Sam did , tothcr day.
What luck , old son ? "
Then a suspicion the size of amoun-
taiii tell upon Hill , but ho didn't say
si word oven when he-had made u dis
covery by going and examining the
back of ono of tlio cards. Ho only
muttered to himself , "Who'd think of
looking for marks on a pack of cards
you buy yourself nnd break the wrap
per off of ? "
Hut the story got around , despite
Hill's ' efforts to Xeep it dark. Ono of
the Piutfis , in ) the excitement of his
success , got himself gloriously drunk ,
and talked about how they had doc
tored the cards in Bill's own place .
poisoned the very fouHtam-hcad of
justice , so to say.
