started and everything rolled alonij
smoothly until after the camp had
been pitched in one of the alleys of

time the af resaid young lady, whose
heart yearned for one glance into the

self from the teepee camp-lire on the
pretext that she wished to feast her
eyes upon the beauties of art to be
seen in the windows of our mercantile
establishments and sniff the blueing
breeze which swept from the north-
land. Thus she bade farewell to her
parental ancestors and unmiddful
brothers and sisters, and sallied forth
alone and unknown in an unknown
land. The allurements of our city are

was the disappearance anil complete

less Kansas fairy and stealthily stole
her away to some dark rendezvous.
