Otherwise, the time is not far distance,- when respectable law-abiding citizens, will not dare to go to roost, without a', small arsenal under the pillow. Promptly at 7.80 P. M.. so the rumor runs, the Jlough Riders silently , ami stealthily rounded up, for n desperate charge upon Atlantic City. ' Horses, fed on inulcilied electricity died, _i|iiiclcly mounted and away, the Riders arrived at the scene of revelry at s.:tn o'clock, prairie time. Somewhere amid the solitudes and % the silence of the -Atlantic City prairies, Ihe Rough Riders surprised acamp of six poor innocent tenderfoot. \\ hiz! Si* lassoes flew in sinuous serpentine coils through the air, and the six defenseless creatures, who a moment before perhaps, were imlulg- 1 ing in a pipe of peace liefore wooing j gentle slumber; were dangling help- : le -ly* each at the end of a rope, tied fa.-t t.. lo^many saddles. - The saturnine glee of the terrible RiderrfKiicw no bounds. Judged from a Roiiyrii Rider's code of ethics, their 1 intentiofbi were perudventure good I and harmless. They proposed notiting 1 more serious for the tenderfeet than a broken limb or two, about 150 bruises, i half a dozen earthiiuake shocks, five c subluxations of the vertebrae, a slight < discoloration of the optics niul an in- I • iiseoioration oi tne optics ami in-
ability to sit comfortable for a week Observing the tenderfeet were lespectable looking fellows, so the Riders plead in extenuation for their conduct, they proposed only to initiate them into the secrets and mysteries of the Rodgh Riders fraternity, and thereby complete their education as gentlemen of the prairie Round- 1.' p. Be that as it may, the whisper goes around, that having once survived the ceremony of initiation, a tenderfoot will willingly cross the Niagra on a clothes line, dance a hornpipe on the I mouth of a volcano, cook his breakfast on- a keg of gunpowder, or ride a broncho through a distillery without tiismounting, and think it a birthday •party in comparison. The initiation of the luckless ten-" • lerfect, was carried out somewhere in the wilds of Odd Fellows" Hall. By the cnmtflTieil powers of bribes and threats, we have succeeded in discovering the idenity of the officiating functionaries at the rites, whose names we make known as a civic obligation to the public.
