Tlio police have just been apprised of a Jittlo adventure which a short time ago befell Mr. John Kelkcnny , tlio well- known South Thirteenth street liquor dealer. Tlio story , though a tnilo "chest- imtty , " is given as related at police head * quarters. Ono night a tall , roughly-dressed fel low , whose style of costume showed that ho was a cowboystepped intoKclkcnny's saloon. Ho was plainly under tlio in- ijiicnco of liquor. Throwing ; his hat back on his head , ho swaggered up to tlio bar nnd asked : "Ho you the proprietor of this yero place ? " ' . 'I guess I am , " replied Mr. 1C. , calmly. "Well , then , " ( drawing a big Smith & g Wesson revolver from his belt , ) "L want f to SPO you dance a liille for me ! " ' 'Hut ' 1 ' dance " returned i can't , the proprietor - ' priotor , keeping as calm a demeanor as ho could under tlio circumstances. "Yes yer km. Yer hot you'll have to if 1 say so , " replied tlio drunken cow- border , brandishing his gun threat- ingly. Mr. K. thought of tlio ancient maxim that discretion was tlio bettor part of valor and coming out from behind tlio bar. went through all tlio dunce steps ho could think of. He Hung his fcot in lively slylo for Ion minutes before the cow noy was satislied. "That'll do , now , " said the latter. "I guess yer all right , Nowgi1 mo a horn of vor best whisky. " Air. Kelkcnny obeyed with an alacrity which was born of a dcsiro to please a dangerous customer. As the cowbo } ' was enjoying the whisky John looked cau'lessly at the lovolvor and remarked : " 1'ino revolver you've got there. " "Yes , " ntplicd tlio cowboy , ov'dently ' flattered , "its a daisy. " "Let nio look nt it a minute , will you ? " asked KelKcnny , pouring out another glass for tlio cowboy. "Certainly , " replied the cowboy , hand ing over the weapon with ono hand and eei/mg the ulass with the oilier. Jiu unvor drank the whisky , for aspoon as Mr. K. had thu weapon in his hand lie pointed it at tlio cowboy and uttered the stern command , "Now you dance , " and ho put the cowboy through all Iho paces imaginable , fast and slow. For half an hour ho was compelled to keep his fcot going at the point of his own weapon. When the ordeal was over , iio slunk out of tlio saloon , a very tired ami ashamed but wiser man. Ho was minus his re volver. _ A Wlfo'H Buiry. " 1 have suilbred more for the sake of that niau than any other woman in America would have endured for her husband. " The speaker was Mrs. Mary Kratkl.tho woman who , as mentioned in Thursday's UKI : had tracked a runaway hubbaud from St. Louis to Omaha. She had found him living with another woman ht'ro.just beyond Hanscom park , and she hail him arrested on a charge of adultery. When arraigned before Judge Ster.bcrg in police court yesterday morn ing , Kratkis ullonly rcnuukcd lliat ho thought ho could cl.nir . himself. As Kratki lived outside the city liniits.Judgo Stcnberg concluded that he had no juris diction in the case , and accordingly bent him befoio Justice Anderson. Tno hear ing of the case was sot by Judge Ander son for next Monday , and in default of § ,100 bail Kratki was tent to jail. To a reporter Mrs. Krnlkf made a par- \ial outpouring of her woes. "Xwelvo years.ago , " she. bald , "lYras Iv , V married to Kratki in St. Louis. Since that time lie lias done almost nothing toward supporting mo or our children. Ho was a blacksmith by trade , and as fast as lie earned his inonej , instead of spending it to buy bread for his wife and children , ho would gamble it away. Uo had a perfect mania for gambling. Many a time I have gone to the gambling house at the corner of Third and Washington avenue's , in St , Louis , and waited for hours for him to leave the table. Then I ha\o had to actually drag him away , with his red , white and blue gambling chips still in his hand. All this while his children were suffering at homo. "Soycn years ago , " continued Mrs. Kratki , "my husband deserted mo. I found that no had gone to Chicaso. His feeble cxcnso was tliat ho could not bear to have Ids mother-in-law my mother live with us. 1 did not believe that this was tlio real reason , but as I loved the man still , 1 followed linn to Chicago. I had no money , and to raise enough to purchase a ticket I sold all our fur niture and household goods , left my chil dren in good hands and started for Chicago. 1 finally succeeded in Finding my husband and induced him to go back to St. Louis with me. Wo had no money to buy tickets with , and so wo determined to walk from Chicago to St. Louis , a distuned of about 250 or i00 ! miles. Wo walked for days and days , and finally reached Springheld , Illinois , which is about ninety miles from St. Louis. There a kind-hearted conductor on tlio Chicago iSi AJton mot us and said : ' 1 have passed you three times on your walk from Chicago and I'll see that you ride the rest of the way to St. Louis. ' He punched the ticket and that way wo readied our homo in St. Louis. "My Iniiband refused to give up gam bling and wont from bad to worse. A year or two afterwards ho ran away to Chicago and I again followed him up and brought him back. Two years ago ho again ran away this time to Omaha , I leave him now in the hands of the law. I propose to make him duller as I , his wife , have sull'ercd , " Wo now have the solo agency for tlio jots in Hiker's addition.
