The Michigan Man Who Asked No Favor
of the legislature.
Some twelve or fourteen years , ago a
queerly-dressed, eccentric-acting indi
vidual appeared at Lansing during the
session of the Legislature and asked
various members to introduce a bill "to
enable him to build a dam on Wolf
River, somewhere in the northerns
counties. The matter was allowed to
go by default, -and at the next session;
tne oia man showed, up again Taia
lme a bill was introduced, but before
it came up he got tired and went home.
When a third session opened ha
was on hand, but only to be tired out!
a cru in W HnUvo T.naf fall a TViH-!-n,.
who was a member of the House and
remembered the case, met the old man
up the lake shore and said to him:
"1 shall go to the Legislature again,
this year, and vou come to me with
your bill and I'll push it for you."
Uhank ye, but it s no use," replied
theoldtnan. " -;-
"Don't you want the dam?"'
"Fact is, I built the dam before I
asked permission of the law."
Well, 3'ou d better have thinsrs in
legal shape."
iNo use. Dunn' the nrst session the,
dam went with a freshet. During the
second, the mill went on a mortgage.
During the third, Wolf River dried upi

The Cowboy ata Ha la.
CBfll Nye ia Puck.
So much amusing talk is being made re
cently anent the blood-bedraggled cowboy
of the wild west that I rise as one man to
say a few things, not in a dictatorial style,
but regarding this so-called or so es teamed
dry land pirate who, mounted on a little
cow-pony n4 under the black flag, sails out
across the green surge of the plains to scat
tor the rocky shores of Time with his fellow-man.
A great many people wonder where the
cowboy, with his abnormal thirst for blood,
originated. . Where did this young Jesse
James, wl.h his gory record and his daunt
less eye, ; come fromt Was he born in a
buffalo wallow at the foot of some rock
ribbed mountain, or did he first breathe the
thin air along the brink of an alkali pond,
where the horned toad and the centipede
sang him to sleep, and the tarantula tickled
him under the chin with its hairy legs!
Careful research and cold, hard statistics
show that the cowboy, as a general thing,
was born In an unostentatious manner on
the farm. I hate to sit down on a beautiful
romance and squash the breath out of a ro
mantic dream; but the cowboy who gets too
tyuch moist damnation : In his, system, and
rides on a gallop up and down - Slain street,
shooting out the lights of the beautiful bil
liard palaces would be Just as happy if a
moose ran up his pantafoon-Ieg as you would
gentle reader.
THE BLOOD-BEDRAGGLED COWBOT.
One night, while I had rooms in the busi
ness part of a territorial city in the Rocky
Mountain cattle country, I was awakened
at about 1 o'clock a. X. by the most blood
curdling cry of "murder" I ever heard. It
was murder with a big "M." Across the
street, in the bright light of a restaurant, a
dozen cowboys with broad sombreros and
flashing silver braid, huge leather chaper
ajas, Mexican spurs and orange silk neck
ties, with ft ihing revolvers, were standing. It
seemed j that a big red-faced Capt Kidd of
the band, with his skin full of valley tan,
had marched into an ice-cream resort with
a self-cocke in his hand, and ordered the
vanilla coolness for the gang. There being
a dozen! young folks at the place, mostly
male and female, from a neighboring hop,
indulging in cream, the proprietor, a' meek
Norwegian with thin white hair, deemed It
rude and put to do so. He said something
to that effect, whereat the other eleven men
of alcoholic courage let off a yell that froze
the cream into a .solid glacier, and shook
two kerosene lamps out of . their sockets ia
the chandeliers. .
This annoyed the ice cream agriculturist,
and he took the old axe-handle that he used
to jam the ice down around, the freezer with,
and peeled a large area of scalp off the
leader's dome of thought, and it hung down
overhis eyes, so that ha could not see to
shoot with any degree of accuracy.
id
1
THE ICS CBEAM AGRICULTURIST WITH THE
JL.XE HANDLE.
After he had yelled "murder f three or
four times, he fell under an ice cream table,
and the mild -eyed Scandinavian broke a
silver-plated castor over the organ of self-
esteem, and poured red pepper and salt and
vinegar and Hal ford sauce and other relisb.es
on the place where the scalp was loose.
This revived the brave but murderous
cow-gentleman, and be begged that he might
be allowed to go away.
The irentle Y. M. CL A. superintendent of
the ten-stamp ice-cream freezers then took
the revolvers away from the bold buccaneer
aud kicked him 'but through a show-case.
All cowboys are not sanguinary; but out
of twenty yon, will generally find one who is
brave when be has his revolvers with him;
but when he forgot and left his shooters at
home on the piano, the most tropical violet
eyed dude can climb him with the butt end
of a sunflower and beat his brains out and
spatter them all over that school district -
WHEN THE COWBOT FORGETS HIS SHOOTERS.
In the wild unfettered west, be ware of the
man who never carries arms, never gets
drunk and always minds his own business.
H- don't go around shooting out the gas, or
intimidating a Kindergarten -school; but
when a brave frontiersman, with a revolver
in each boot and a bowie down the back of
his neck, insults a modest young lady, and
needs to be thrown through a rlate glaw
window and then walked over by the popu
lace, call in the silent man who dares to
wear a clean shirt and human clothes.
