RAILROAD BONOS STILL
BLIND RAISED
Chip of
“The Flying U”
By

Ruffalo and vicinity are making
great progress in and around Buffa-
lo in securing new contracts for
railroad bonus. Solicitors have
tw*co out this week and have found
every subscriber perfectly willing
to make a new contract and take
up the old one.
It would be a great advantage to
the solicitors as well as the sub-
scribers themselves and would save
a great deal of time if all the suli-
st-riders w hen in Buffalo would call
noon the Executive Committee and
r -npw their contracts, as it is very
expensive to send a car over the
gone territory that has already
l>een canvassed. However, this
w ill be done within the next few
days, unless some other arrange-
ments are made. Most evervbodv
realizes that if a railroad is built
from the West to a connection on
the Wichita balls A: Northwestern
that it will eventually be built East
to a connection with some trui k
line that will give us proper trans
purtation to market. However,
we feel as though a railroad from
the Katy would benefit ns praCti
cidy as much as a through line
would at this time. It would be
unreasonable to ask a promotor to
m ote a contract that he would
brild a railioad to a connection
East, when a bonus is only raised
to Buff.do. however we feel eei
tain that it wiii be only a short
time until the line will be extended.
The railroad promoters are get
ting very anxious about this mat-
ter,as Jteel has advanced over $6.0(
per ton within the last sixty davs
and we should know something def-
inite within the next few days,
we expect our promoters to stand
by their contract.
Now, let everybody get behind
this propsitiou with all the energy
that t an possibly be obtained, aud
have a railroad by January 1st.

while so perambulating through Mon-

a job, he communicated to the "boys.'
Could they give him a job on the
Flying U? It asked, when the boys had
told inm where they hailed from.
The boys reckoned they might find
him a job on the ranch provided he
could wash dishes or sweep the parlor
or manicure their fingers, or tilings
like that.
At which retort, impolite though it
certainly was, It laughed good-na-
turedly and replied that he reckoned
he could perform any of the tasks men-

And at the use of these big words the
boys added insult to injury by allow-

i The upshot of this meeting was that

loafed along over the range on the j
trail of the cowboys and their cayuees I
till presently, footsore and weary— |
that’s the right term, I believe, for a
tired man—footsore and weary—he
arrived at the headquarters of the
Flying U. namely the ranch house
where m> brother Jatk reigned as sov- j
I ereign—or rather as “the old man”— j
for such they calied him, just as
| people did in the Hast—Old Man Whit-
\ more, just because he owned the ranch
and not at all because he was so fear-
fully old. For how could a man be
| fearfully- old when he wasn't muc-h
! older than his doctor-sister Della, and
when he loved and expected some day
| to hitch up to his sister's chum, the
youthful and sprightly Cecil Gran-
j thum, M. D.? 1 ask you.
Well, my brother, "the old man,” 1
looked It over aud allowed It couid i
| consult With the foreman as to-a job. i
: Straight as a die to the foreman went |
! It. The foreman wanted to be shown
i what were It s qualifications for a
I cowboy and ranchman and what cer- j
| tifleates of merit It could produce ae
to fitness to ride the range and rope j
i steers and hang on to the back of a
wild stallion—for just right then, in
public view, was a fierce wild stallion
owned by my brother—the noble
equine beast named Denver.
It confessed that It hadn’t any cer-
tificates of such merit, but that, if ;
they wished, he could paint a portrait
of Denver that would be so realistic
that they wouldn’t dare bring real hay |
into the presence of the picture be-
cause the painted Denver would begin
eating the hay.
Thie, on Its part, was of course
meant as badinage and airy persiflage, j
But the foreman and the surrounding

know it was airy persiflage; so, in-
stead of laughing right out openly J

work like a house afire and swept that
etable as it had never been swept in
all its history for generations prior to
the time that my brother had bought
the Flying U. The way It swept out
that stable solidified him somewhat In
the estimation of the boys and the fore-
man and they decided that such a very
heluva of a worker as that should have
some name other than It. Whereupon,
there and then, one of them happened
to remark that It worked and took
the whole joshing like he had a chip
on hi3 shoulder.
“Chip!" exclaimed the foreman.
"Chip!" cried the cowboys in cho-
rus.
And that’s how It became Chip—and
Chip he remained, as my brother’s
letter stated, up to the present writ-
ing.
Such was the introduction of Chip
to the Flying U. Not a soul of them
knew who Chip really was. And now,
with my brother’s letter before me. I
solemnly swore that never, no never,
would I divulge the secret of the iden-
tity of Chip—no, only over my dead
body—whatever that means—would
my brother or any member of the Fly-
ing U company ever get from me the
real name and identity of Chip. How
delightful!
That night when I lay me down to
sleep on my nice swansdown—when 1
laid my golden hair on that pillow, I
say—yes, I have golden hair—and
when I closed my blue eyes in sleep-
yes, I have blue eyes—I bad my broth-
er’s letter under my pillow and in my
mind was thought of how sweet it was
to possess a deep, dark secret con-
nected with this tall, bronzed-faced—
yes, I was sure he was tall and
bronzed-faced—man whom the Flying
U knew only as Chip, but whom I, Dr.
Della Whitmore, knew to be none
other than the 6on of the millionaire
banker, Bennett—the son who had
chucked his job in his father s bank
and -had given his mother “nerves”
and had thus supplied a "first case”
for Dr. Della Whitmore—I alone knew,
I say, that Chip was Mr. Claude Ben-
at Learning thaf Chip, my Chip; the
friend of my secret thought*—satis-
faction at learning that he, after four
rears af hard w ork, had reaped reward
in the form of foremanship of my
brother s big ranch. It was so good
to know that one’s secret friend, who
had been riding range dutifully and
efficiently for four years, had succeed
ed: while 1, his unknown friend, had
reaped my own reward in the same
time while riding the canyons of the
great city dutifully and efficiently on
my way to and from a constantly In-
creasing number of patients.
"How did Chip get his promotion?"
I asked.
"It seeme." Mrs. Bennett replied,
“that the thing that led immediately
to his rise in position and raise In
wages was because he rode a wild
horse that no other cowboy in Mon-
tana would dare mount."
“Good!” I ejaculated, with so much
enthusiasm that Mrs. Bennett looffed
at me in astonishment.
“One would think,” she said, “that
you had a personal interest In my
sou’s advancement. Why, you’ve
never met him."
"No.” I said, “I was just crying a
‘bravo’ such as I would cry for any
human being who had struggled to
make good and had won.”
"Well,” Mrs. Bennett said, “it seems
that this wild horse was named Sil-
ver. Silver was what my boy calls
•some wild broncho.’ Anyway, Doctor
Whitmore”—notice this doctor stuff,

My Vacation Begins,
So four years passed. Cecil and I
were now' in our middle twenties and
any aspersion cast upon us by friend
or foe to the effect that we were in
the old-maid class, was instantly
spurned with utmost scorn. No! we
found that we had only just now be
gun to know real wisdom and to enjoy
real life. We had both achieved suc-
cess as doctors of medicine; and,
though we still occupied my brother’s
New York house, we were now no
longer free tenants. We paid our rent
monthly, punctiliously and proudly.
Yes, our shingles had been hanging
out in sight of the world for four long
years that had passed really with sur-
prising quickness, so busy had we
been kept by our patients.
Mrs. Bennett, the dear soul, had sent
us patients galore. All New York eo
clety was our patient, specially for
nerve cases. Any woman with nerves
and a bag of money would call us up
and take either of us—didn't make
any difference to the patient which
one of us came. And by the time Ce-
cil or I had given that nerve case a
good tongue-lashing and made her get
out of bed and go to work at some-
thing useful that would occupy her
mind and nerves—I say by the time
we finished with any such patient, the
said woman with the money bags be-
came our real friend and would send
big, fat checks. Also the patients
would call us in when actual sickness
overtook any member of their families,
so that Cecil and I became known as
“the doctors to the Four Hundred."
And now, at the end of our fourth
year of hard work, I began to indulge
in thoughts of that vacation on the
Flying U which 1 had promised my
brother 1 would take. About this
time Mrs. Bennett telephoned to come
right over to see her, as she had a
bad case of nerves again, not, she said,
as the result of bad news, but in con-
sequence of extra good news from
"the front." Now I knew- “the front”
meant the Flying U, where Chip was
at work, so—well. It Is extraordinary
