He had been fired by tbe rosy articles published In the papers of bis home town In Minnesota, and with a worthy ambition to make a fortune for himself, came lo the west to lake up some of the free land on which soldiers, sailors aud marines are given a "preference" right. He went lo the land office where be was fur nished with a map and guido book, which ouly served to confuse him the more, and at laat came to the Chamber of Commerce for aid. In the meantime some kind-hearted tit lien had told him of a certain sec tion which might prove tillable and he wanted assistance In looking It up. Tbe piece was one of the beat, probably, in the grant. At least the book said It was tillable, but a short nqulry located It. In the clay hills back of Riddle, a piece of ground fit only for raising digger squirrels and poison oak, a place where a respect able goat would refuse to grase. The young fellow thanked the secretary for his assistance and then went out to find a Job which would pay him money enough to get back home. This Is all happening weeka before the time conies for ex-soldiers to exercise their rights. Soon the date ahlch haa been greatly vaunted In the middle west will auive and with It will come many men who are anx ious to secure lands which they be lieve are of great value.
