THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: 8 DAY APRIL 10, 1892 M. Quad's Corner. THE ARIONA KICKEH} AND OTHER STORIES. BY “M. QUAD”. [Copyrighted 1892 by C. B. Lewis.| WE CHANCED IT.—While we were over at Lone Tree the other day, Steve Watson wanted us to marry him to a girl named Ramson, who has been liv- ing in the family of Major Hastings. We knew we couldn’t do it as editor, but we were not 80 certain in our eapac- ity as mayor. We finally agreed to take the chances on it if Steve and the girl would, and the result was that they were made one. We used the regular form followed by clergymen, but put in & proviso that if Steve ever stopped his subscription to our paper the marriage should be considered null and void Until we have time to look up the law in the case wa will marry any and every couple appearing before us for that ob- ject, charging only one year's cash sub- ecription to The Kicker. If it transpires later on that we had no authority the ceremony can be gone through with elsewhere or things left as they stand, but the subscription must be considered 8 go. Please call at the mayor’s office between 2 and 4 in the afternoon. Carp OF THANKS.—The undersigned takes this method of returning his heartfelt thanks to the fifty or more citizens who gathered on Thursday evening with the intention of pulling bim up to a limb, but who courteously and patiently listened to his explana- tions and finally decided to give him one more show: I came to this town under false pretenses, as 1 hereoy publicly admit. 1 claimed to be a bad man from the Had Lands, and_expect- ed to sort o' run things. Iam nota bad man but only a weak 1mitation. Instead of hav- ing killed five men, as 1 publicly boasted, I struck the wrong town, aud instead of trying to play bad_man any louger, I am eoing to work. 1 will put in'ten hours a day at any sort of labor for # a week, and I trust that I may in time secure the res tsua good will of the gentlemen who sqgandly refrained from pulling on the other end of the rape. My two guns and my bowie knifeare for sale cheap, as I have uo further use for them Haxk Scorr, Ex-Bad Man from the Bad Lands. TALLY A¢ Recognizing the fact that this town has done much for The Kicker, and feeling deeply grateful and desiring to show our appreciation in & substantial manner, we have purchased in the east and shall present to the town a hard fire engine of latest pattern. At the present date the sole outfit of our fire department consists of a step ladder aed an old tin_pail, and we are at the mercy of the devouring element. We are no elarmist, but we must confess that our slumbers have been nightly disturbed by visions of red tongued flames licking their fiendish coursa up and down Apache avenue—devouring saloon after saloon, wiping out one poker room after anotber, attacking one edifice after another, until the heavens for miles around were lighted with the baleful glare of a conflagration full of disaster to our appalled acd helpless citizens Our present will be pamed after our paper. We are not as thoroughly posted as we hope to be on fire engines, but we venture the statement that this one is full jeweled, return flues, patent cylinders ard copper bottomed, and that every citizen of the town will be proud of it We understand that his honor the mayor (who is ourselfl), will soon issue a call for a pubkic meeting to organize n fire company. We sugges: that he be made chief of the fire depart- ment, while we hereby announce our readiness to serve as foreman if elected. The engine is expected to arrivein about four weeks. I1’s OUR WAY—As our contemporary has only 460 circulation and is often obliged to come out on a half sheet or skip publication altogether, what he says regarding us has BO opportunity to reach the public. For this reason, and because we are kind hearted by nsture, we permit him to use our columns this ek as fol- lows, and make no charge whatever: ‘We bereby announce to the public, and have documen!nry evidence 10 prove our al- legations, that the editor of The Kicker fol- lowed the traffic of body snatehing for fore than five years in the siate of Ohio, and that he escaped trom Joliet while ho had yet two vears to serve. We further add that we have armed ourself to shoot him on sight. Enitor Bic BoNaxza, As to his changes, they are chestnuts two years old, and will only make peo- ple smile. Asto his shooting us, he hay tried it on five different times and mis- erably failed We will stand up against a wall and let him shoot s times at us from a distance of ten feet, and if he plants one bullet within twelve inches of uny part of us we will donate 850 for a local hospital. He doesn’t be- long out here at all. His sphere lhies in peddling popcorn in the cifete east. M. QUAD'S CAT SPECULATION. As you came up the trail you first struck “Big Hopes” diggings, which had a population of about 300 miners. -~ Two miles farther on you came to**Aunt Sally Flat,” which had a population of 100 less. Only a mile farther down was +I-want-to-go-home” town, the popula tion of which was anywhere between seventy-five and 300. Some men who wauted to go home packed up and lit out; others who wanted to go had to wait around for wings to fly with. One day notices were posted up in all the towns for & public meeting to be held 8t “Aunt Satly Flat” on the third d ¥ after. It wus announced that a crisis had sarrived, and that able speakers would be present to discuss it and point out the remeay. Mining was hard work and poor pu} that season, and we were ready 0 welcome even a crisis. There were plenty of miners who didn’t know a crisis from a climax; but they were will- ing to lean the difference, and on “the date appointed everybody knocked off work, washed his hands and put in an appearance. If any one expected to hear that the time had come to declare war against England, march into Mex- {co or demand that Uncle Sam furnish us fresh butter he was disappointed. Colonel Bill Taylor wasone of the *‘able speakers” and he began with the hndlnx of the pilgr nu and scaled down to “‘Aunt Sally " and announced that we must import wu ©cats as S00n as possible or preaare to abandon the meighbornood. '@ were not only beiog overran by rats and mice, but every man was homesick for the presence of n cat. 1f 500 women could be induced to come out and marry us and make our homes happy, then get 500 cats. Wo wen first—cals & good second. A grl» malkin on the hearthstoue, after the toil of the day, would remind us of home, soften up our hearts and make betler men of us. Without the reflning | | harder as he talked of cats. | old oaken bucket, a smoke house, & pig influence of cats none of us could hope to reach that better land. Cats—iong tailed or bobtailed, striped or spotted— | h-x\ we must have cats, He wa followed by Judge Hopkins, who acknowledged in a sneaking soet of way t he would rather see the old family cat than his wife and seven chil- dren. He wanted a cat to holdonh knee as he sat and looked into the fire and called vp recollections of days gone by. He wanted to her fur and hear the p-u-r-r-r-r, which wou!? “ring up a vision of an idiot settiny out from his farm 1n Ohio to slash around among the mountains of the west with a pick axe and a backache. The judge wept | as he talked of home; he wept still Give him a cat and he would live on and not care a cent whether school kept or not. The stroke pen, a barrel of solt soap, any of these would gladden and cheer and encourage, but only temporarily. He dida't want 500 women to come out there, as his wife would be sure to be one of the drove. but he did want cats, and he wouldn't be captious about the color. Other speakers followed in the same strain, and it wes finally voted to con- tribute a purse and send a man east for cats. No contribute—no cats. On their arrival each cat was to become currency. representing $10. Any attempt to di count was to be considered the same murder in the second degree. As 1 had a broken arm and was laying off, the choice fell upon me to go eust, collect the caws and lead them into the promised lan In due time I struck Leaven- worth. In two days I cleaned that town up %0 thoroughly that for six months afterwarl the owner of a cat was too stuck up to speak to the ms _ Thenl went to Atc on a every- thing down to & kittan which had just got its right eye open.

Strong men turned gray haired that night and nex{ morn- ing three innocent children were buried in one grave. ‘When near the Colorado line we were attacked by hostile lndians. They had been hovering about during the after- noon and as night fell they gathered to reap the harvest of scalps. There seamed to be about four hundred of them, all imbued with a great deal of entausiasm, and they had closed in for business when a Leavenworth tomecat happened to look cross-eyed froma chap from St. Joe and a row was the conse- In one minute after time was 606 cats of all ages, sizes and colors and each with a voice strictly his own, began singing out. It wasa calm, still nlght—just the sort of a night to be b\.:hnud by Indians—and the row in the wagons cculd be heord five miles. We heard the chief calling out to his war- riors not to be alarmed, and not to desert their country in her hour of peril, but he couldn’t hold them. TL fell over each otber in their hasteto getaway and scalp some tenderfoots camped twelve miles to the north of and we were not again molested. The same ards went about the coun- try warping their esteemed contem- poraries that we were “*bad medicine” and would steal tomahawksoff adead warrior's grave and to have nothing to do with us. It was a mean piece of business, but you can’t expect much good of an Indian. One fall day we drew near “‘Big Hopes® diggiugs Everybody in tne three towns dressed up in his best and came out to welcome the conquering hero and the cats. Every man who had two shirts tied one of them to a pole for a flag. Every one who could yell did so. Only eleven cats had died of grief en route, and there was still a cat apiece. Speeches were made and a quartet sang, 1 Want to Be an Angel.” Men who had never exhibited the slightest emo- tion, even when 'u'&‘idvuwfly struck with A vickax, now wiped tears from their eyes. We went into town with men cheering, mules braying, flags waving and cats yowling, and it was unani- mously Rosolved, That we celebrate the day:that after the celebration is over we divide up the cats. | We celebrated. There were three barrels of *‘celebration” rolled out, and no one was excused. Next morning we crawled out to divide up, but there was nothing to divide. Some boozy idiat bad opened all the cages during the nirht, and every cat was gone. Some were making for Pike's peak—others were on their way 1o Leavenworth to renew old ties. We spent a week track- ing one old Tom who was undecided which route to take, but hie gave us the dodge and we packed up and abandoned the country. We knew that luck was agin us. GOT LEFT ON HYENA ROAST. As we drove along over a South Caro- lina highway we encountered a cireus and menagerie on the move, and when clear of it we came upona dozen men standiog around the dead body of a hy- ena. Theanimal had died in his cage und been hauled out on the ground. He was old and faded and his fur rubbea off in spots, and the circus people decided that his pelt was not worth taking. The party was about to move on when up 10de the proprietor ol & country hotel sbout four miles further down the road. *‘Look &-here gentlemen,” he said when the incident had been explained 10 him, **would yo' hev any objectipns to my cattin’ of & hind quarter ol that hyena and takin it home?” Hof course not; but what can you want of it?” “Wail, Jedge Ridley, of this circuit, will be along today and he will stop with mwe fur dinner.

He was told to take the whole body if be wanted it, but he contented himself with & quarter, and was in & ha ppy frame of mind as he rode on with us. We were booked to stop at his place fot dinner, and we got around there jusr before the judge and his white mule came into view down the dusty road.

We tried to the belief th gue the landlord into life was worth the living. but it couldn’t be done. He sat down and beckoned for death to come and strangle him. M. QUAD. Whitman on Lincoin. One of the poems of Walt Whitman that has @:pecially endeard hin to the American people is the one on the death of Lincola. It 15 not ouly more rhythmical and musical than most of his verse, but it 1s writen 1n such & form as to appaal to those to whom the poets usual method is a mystery. Itisas follows: o cudptnm' my captain! our fearful trip is one The ship has weathered every prize we sought is won The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting. Whils follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel rack, the £rim and darng: But O heart! heart! heart! O the bleeding drops of red, Where on ine deck my captain lies, Fallen cold and dead.

The twenty-five or thirty years of freedom and citizenship which the black man has had in this countrr has demonstrated nis sterling worth and his ability to cope with the white man in nearly every profession. In the pulpit and in journal perhaps more than in any direction, has e shown his ability to keep up with, and in fact almost lead the proces- sion. There are more than 200 colored news- papers published in the United States. Tho largest, the greatest and most successful ous is the Freeman, published at Indianapolis, Ind., President Harrison’s home. It 1s & negrc journal 1n the broadest sense, that its tyne-setters, artists, editors, and in fact all of the work done on the paper is done by colored people. Another novel feature of the paper is that 1t is illustrated, and each week is fuil of illustrations showing the wiity and humorous side of negzro life, ana eiving the pictures and sketcnes of repre- sentative colored men and women who have won distinction in the last two decades. Hon. Frederick Douglass writes to the ed- 1tor ot The Freeman thus: “Cenar Hiil, ANTiacosTa, D. C., Sept. 13, 1891.—My Dear Cooper: (Great is your cour- age in publishing such a paper as The Froe- man. 1 thought I showed some confidence in myself, and some faith in my people, when more than forty years ago I began the publi cation of the Nortbern Star in Rochester, Y.. but my courage was feeble when com- parea with yours. You have taken uvon voursel! a peculiar burden that oertainly amazes me, and | have been looking and lis- teming for the word ‘failure’ I can not im- agine how you keep up such s paper. You have abuity I koow, but someihing more than mental atity is needed to publish a paper like sour paper. You need mouey as well as mind. Yours, HON. REDERICK DOUGLASS." The Freeman is an cight page quarto paper, printed on fine book paper, and gotlen up in ertistic style, It is recoguized as the na- tional organ of the nine millions of colored people in this country, and i1s a fearless and indepenaent champion of ther rights.
