'The Doctor’s Tale.
From the Omaha Bee.
■“I was living in 'a little Missouri
•owa, 11 said the man of medicine,
'Swrugglir g along as b^st I- could
•isgainst ad verse fate and the disgust-
itig healthiness of the ‘community
Morse-thieving was"a very commoii
thing in that part of the country, and
some of the residents of the county
u which 1 lived had formed an anti-
irarse-thief-association. When a
horse was stolen it became the duty
of every member of the association to
Thoroughly arm himself, mount his
steed, »nd start in pursuit of the
thief. One day one of the members
of the association lost astring of three
valuable horses.
'* Within less than half anhour after
the loss had been discovered a band
of thirty members of the association
were in hot pursuit of the thief. At
7:30 o’clock in the evening we ran
across him in a thick clump of bushes,
1 ho horses staked about him. We
hosed in, and in less time then it takes
to tell it the horse thief was under ar-
:*est. A ‘court’ was organized with-
>rit a moment's delay, and a trial
lasting not longer than ten minutes
followed. The fellow was found
jguilty and sentenced to die. I
l*eit sorry for the scamp—tried to
intercede in his behalf; he
was a young fellow with whom T had
been acquainted for some time, and
SMITH’S SALOON.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
“I hear that Smith has sold out his
saloon,” said one of a couple of middle-
aged men, who sat sipping their beer
and eating a bit of cheese in a Smith-
field street saloon last. Friday night..
“Yes,” responded the other, rather
slowly ‘ , •
“What was the reason? I thought
he was just coining money there.”
The other nibbled a cracker ab
stractedly for a moment and then
said: “It’s rather a funny story.
Smith, you know, lives on Mount
Washington; right near me, where he
has an excellent wife, a nice home
and three as pretty children as ever
played outdoors. All boys, you know,
the oldest not over 9, and all about
the same size. Smith is a pretty re
spectable sort of a citizen, never
drinks or gambles, and thinks the
world of his family.
Well, he went home one afternoon
last week,| and found his wife out
shopping or something 6f that sort.
He went on through the house into
the back yard, and there, under an
apple tree, were the little fellows
playing. They had a bench and some
bottles and tumblers and were play
ing ‘keep saloon.” He noticed that
they were drinking something out of
a pail, and that they acted tipsy. The
youngest, who was behind the bar,
had a towel tried around his waist,
——a—m—
horn I knew to come from highly fand setting the drinks up pretty free.
• peoted parents in Illinois. It was J Smith walked.over and looked in the
■ “ ' pail. It was beer, and two of the
boys were so drunk that they stagger
ed. A neighbor's boy, a couple of
years older, lay asleep behind the
tree.
“ ‘My God, boys you must not
drink that,’ he said as he lifted ^lie
six-year-old from behind the bench.
“ ‘We’s playing’ s’loon, papa, an’ I
was a sellin’ it just like you'.’ said the
little fellow. Smith poured out the
beer, carried the drunken boy home
and then took his own boys in and
put them to bed. When his wife
came back she found him crying like
a child. He came back down town
that night and sold out his business
and says he will never sell or drink
another drop of liquor. His wife told
mine about it, and she broke down
crying while she told it.”
This is a true story, but the name
was not Smith.
if. sio use. The captors insisted that
iu must die, and only ] aU gbed at my
eiitreatie-. To add to my disgust, I
was selected as the one to shoot
hi m.
‘Sav your prayers, boy,’ said one
The men to the young fellow 7 , w^°
had been tied to a tree.
The poor cuss didn’t know how to
l-ray and asked me to help him. I
didn t know anything but the Lord’s
prayer, and tried that. -It went so
well, and seemed to relieve the poor
tel low so much, that I repeated it
several times.
“Just as I rose from my knees the
details of a plan whereby I might

siikI. I whispered them into his ear,
and his grateful look, as hope was re-
f - r e d in his heart, I shall never forget.
it was growing dark and the men
were becoming impatient, so that I
-determined to hurry matters to a
evisis. I had a 'double-barreled
muzzle-loading shot-gun; and
wilder pretence that the loads
were not fresh I fired them off.
reloaded them, not with shot, but
with some very small pills which I
happened to have with me. I was
pretty well watched and trembled in-
w£>5xlly lest I might be detected. But
\ wasn’t. I measured off a goodly
distance on the ground and fired,
taking a low aim. Tile horse thief
fell over apparently dead. The vigi-
* antes mounted their horses and
drove away, leaving me to bury the
victim. In less than ten minutes the
-orpse was free and making a bee
'i»e for Kansas. The dose of pills had
wot injured him in the least.”
Startling* But True.
Willis Point,. Texas.-Dec. 1. 1885.
After suffering for more than three
years with disease of the throat and
lungs, I got so low last spring I was
-entirely unable to do anything, and
my cough was so bad I scarcely slept
ally at night. My Druggist, Dr. H.
! \ Goodnight, sent me a bottle of Dr.
Koo&nko's Cough and-Lung Syrup. T
f> Mind relief, and after using six $1.00
bottles, I was entirely cured.
