upon a slip of a girl in. a pink dress.
The girl balanced upon a spick-span
wire fence aiul pointed a long, shiny
gun barrel at a much surprised engineer.
"Go and build your railroad somewhere
else," she instructed. "I won't
have coal trains and fourth of July excursions
putting through my uuurter
section and scaring by ponies out of
their senses!"
The engineer, three months out of
college and impressed with the girl's
pure beauty, bowed profoundly and
stopped short on the ribbon-like line
the Kausas & Pacific was pushing
from prairie to ocean, but Walter
Kenney, noting the disturbance, wr'ked
to the front and coolly looked the
pretty obstructionist over.
, "What's this?" lie demanded,, "Wo

) can't stop us."
The girl smiled at him rather sau\
cily, yet grimly.
"Can't I?" she asked. "You get
back!"
"Stuff.and nonsense!'' laughed Kenney.
"Hero you man with the Hag
pole! Skip over the fence and run
ahead.'!
The man with the tlag pole, grinning,
prepared to clamber through tin
tlght-stretclied wires. Zip! sang tho
shiny gun, and the shuttered liag
staff fell from the dazed man's hands
Zip! went tlie rifle again and Kenuej
felt the deadly breath of the thin?
past his cheek.
"Can't 1?" the girl repeated, banteringly;
and Kenney answered, as In
led his beaten gang away:
"For a bit you can, my prett>
mnrkswoman, but Venus and Cleopatra
in lovely combination couldn't hold
up the Kansas & Pacific.
That night, with lanterns and muffled
stakes, tho surveyors slippeo
out upon the necessary quarter section
and prepared to push the long
line on toward the distant ocean, but
a great dog howled in the darknt tn
and tho rod lantern that the first mar
carried spattered Into a hundrec

"I can pick you off one by one,'

Lesson From the Past.
Ilobin Hood had just handed hied,
half the contents of the Hlondci
purse ho had taken from the plainly

of what >t graduated income ta>

"You never wont to Jail for the
