We had an article In the Kicker stating that Christopher Columbus was a bowlegged man. We dug that Tact out of an old Spanish manuscript secured by us In New Mexico and believed ' c bad made n valuable eontrihutlou to history .' The colonel took exception to the article, al though he can't tdl within-a hundred years of when America was\discovered. and sent ns the Usual word. Wild Rspsrt Flying Around. On Wednesday we rode •••.it to give hlm-tbe usual scare. He fortified himself In a stable with two guns and a hundred cartridges and announced that he would die game.
