SOUGH RIDERS OF £ ROUND-UP NO. 5 TOjJ RESUME RAMPAGE s p !' MCE MEN— AHEM!— TO MAKE mot OARING RAID ON ATLANTIC nee CITY OCTOBER 16th. . j~j® ' | Val i By a very lucky utroke Of fate F ] or fortune, information has come hj*m j to our knowledge. that the Rough ; wh( f Riders of Round-Up No. 5, are ()en " ■ preparing for another raid. j,i3 A cryptic message has gone am| forth, from the OiTko of Recorder mfl| j of Sociability, — who by the way is, f a legalized poisoner, — summoning i 1)|(, the Riders to a rendezvous, some- Njc ■i where on the prairies, in the vicin- ! , ity of Atlantic City, next Monday !our evening. anc The message goes forth in a wj| i significant and suspicious manner, ; mc inscribed upon parchment of the ^ color known as, "Golden Rod." According to an old legend, certain ' ! tribes of Indians, in days gone by. j — were wont to plant the Golden Rod on the graves of those who hod | fallen victims, to their deadly torn- = j. ahawks. Nuff sed! ' j. • Consequently, at the risk of per- j tal I sonnl peril to life we hasten to; ret warn the good people in time, tlint 1 Cit they might communicate with the ^ State Police, and the Military1 fp( authorities. The epistle is domed with the! — cryptic symbols, such as "lioti +- Pogs," Hot Stuff." and "Horsey Smells," common in the vernacular of the incorrigibly rough Rough Riders, and which invariably betoken suffering, and terrible mutilation, to some poor innocent tenderfoot. . "Once more we turn on the stream of fun" the document states. The poor tenderfoot however finds it anything but fun, when once he has fallen into the dutches of the anything but j Grand \Vatch-Dog. _ The epistolary screed also contains the information, that the '' Grand American, some diabolically wicked Nice Man, bearing the name of M. J. Potter, has been ill. P"" If the statement may be read literally, we -rejoice of course, over his recovery. But the Rough Riders may have copied the euphemism of polite society, and speak of one of their number, as having' been ill or indosposed, when in fact he has been for a period, an unwilling guest, in one of Unde Sam's private hotels. One can never tell with a Rough Rider, is Inatruetlons are also given to the effect, th^t the Rough Riders, must all bring thdr hats. This in fact will be a wise precaution; for un variably their antics arc of that "hair-raising" variety, which make a hat necessary, to prevent them looking like porcupines. A whisper passes around that ; the Rough Riders have discovered,; that a party oftwenty-three tenderfeet, are camping out in the brushwood near Odd-Fellows Hall. ■ '
The moment the news arrived, f lie Ranch was a scene typical of 1 undemonium. $1.75 hats flew i ito the air, lassoes throw serpen- 1 no coils in space, spurs began to - lick and clang, while the Roughins embraced each other with , i iendish delight. tenderfoot! Ere a few 1 lore suns are set, twenty-three ecks will feel the friendly hug of lie rope, while they tread the sul- ' hurous causeway, down into the 1 'alley of the Skull. Forwith Nice Man I-cnr, hied fmself away into his secret cave, ^ .-here in communication with the icnizens of the pit, he conjures up ' .is villanous tricks and mysteries, ; J nd manufactures his torturing lachines. Alas poor tendcrfect! As Imperial Grand Potentate of : he Agony Chamber, this very non- , {ice Man has no rival. However we feel we have done iur duty in issuing this warning, ind it remains with those who nil $uffer, to take the necessary t neasures for protection.
