Stakes were driven on that street yesterday and Contractor Cronin will engage actively in the work in a few days. It is thought that many U other streets will get "in the band wagon" of the improvement agitators and seek cleaner and prettier streets,? with more modern improvements. Meetings of the residents of several of the worst streets have been held and something will be doing soon as a re sult of these meetings. Whether the petitions, if presented, will be granted is doubtful, as the city is perilously near the statute limit of indebtedness. But when the four streets now being worked on are finished, it is doubtful whether residents of the other streets will remain inactive, when the good results of a little work are so apparent. That the many improvements, the new cement gutters, and the general better conditions of things will prove a good thing for the city, is not for one moment to be doubted, as other cities than Richmond have found out the added valuation which improve ments of this kind give property. The fight for improvements, viewed from any standpoint, is a good one and the more residents that will enlarge the openings of their purses for the purpose of street and property improvement, the better for the city and property owners. COLD WATER Thrown Upon the Court House Park Project. (Cambridge City Tribune.) Richmond is going to have another park. That is, the county commissioners are going to transform the court house ground into a park and hand it over to the city "for the benefit of the country people." Shades of justice keep off the grass. The first crop of "country people" that gather there will be gathered in and given to understand that this park belongs to Us! What are we here for anyhow except to pay the taxes. A NEW STORE. A branch of the L. J. Libbing & Co. second-hand store of Ft. Wayne, has been opened at 426 West Main street. We are pleased to note new business houses coming to our city.

SCARED H '' , ,.,t Original. - Back In the sixties a man stood, before a wholesale grocery house in St Joseph, Mo., superintending the loading of some wagons. A boy of fourteen stepped up to him and asked: "Are you Mr. Brant that's going to take the train to Denver?" "iara.w a "I want to go with you. Tou see, my mother she took my father out two years ago. when I was a little chap, and she left me with my aunt. Father he's dead now, and I got to go out and take care of mother." "What's your name, sonny?" ho asked kindly. "Tom Ilodse." "Tom Hodge. I knew Tom Hodge of Denver well. So you're his boy. Well. I reckon I can take you along." At that time there were still roving bands of Indians on the plains, though

they had become far less to be dreaded than formerly. The outfit was under the protection of the wagoners, who were all ariiied with rifles. John Brant, owner, was the leader, but the management of the train was left to a man of the name of Conover. who looked after the horses, the harness and the condition of the wagons. Conover was very proud of having been born in an almshouse and not having had a year's schooling in his life. He had attended a dance in St. Joseph with his trousers tucked in his boots to shame one or two men in dress suits. He disliked Tommy Hodge because he was a refined little fellow, having been well brought up. Tommy washed his face and hands occasionally, a process that Conover regarded- very effeminate, especially while on the plains. The consequence was that the wagon master was disposed to make a butt of the boy. One evening after a dusty day's travel Tommy said he would go to a creek where he had noticed a good swimming place and take a bath. When he had gone Conover remarked to the men who were taking care of the stock: "I'm going to scare that boy out of a year's growth. He's a pestiferous little cuss and needs taking down." Without delay he followed Tommy, taking care to keep at a sufficient distance. Of course no one would leave the train without a rifle, and both the boy and the man carried one. Tommy on reaching the creek laid down his weapon, threw off his clothes and plunged into the water. Conover's plan was to put himself beyond the boy, then send him running to camp stark naked. After taking his position the wagon master raised an Indian whoop. The twilight was deepening Into darkness, and he could not see distinctly, so he listened. The floundering in the water ceased. Conover strained his eyes, expecting to see the boy's white Dody snooting tnrougn tne gloom. He saw nothing but the boundless plain lying like a dark ocean about him. He began to feel that sensation of lojieliness which comes to one alone in a vast expanse, and loneliness is akin to fear. Suddenly his blood ran cold at the sound of a real whoop, not the whoop of a white man, but the blood curdling yell of an Indian. He started to run for camp, and as he did so an Indian, doubtless in advance of his people, rose up near him. The savage was armed only with a tomahawk, which he brandished, and Conover expected to see it fly from his hands and cleave his skull. He was so paralyzed with fear that he dropped his rifle and was completely defenseless. Then he turned and made a dash for camp. Running like the wind, he was passing the place where Tommy Hodge had gone in to bathe when close behind him the pursuing Indian gave a triumphant yell. Conover knew that the savage had got within distance to hurl his tomahawk effectively. He was expecting every moment to be laid low by a blow when he heard a shot. He fully believed that he had been pierced by a bullet. Indeed so powerful was his imagination that he fell and lay partly stupefied. When the party at the wagons heard Conover's whoop, they suspected that it was he. attempting to frighten the boy, but when they heard the Indian's whoop they knew at once the danger threatening both Conover and Tommy Hodge.f Mr. Brant ordered the wagons into corral, with the animals in the center, and at the head of a detachment of his men went out to the assistance of those in peril. Hearing nothing after the one shot that had been fired, they gave up their companions as lost, but pushed on. Final ly they came to Conover, lying with his face to the ground. They turned him over and were examining him when they heard a voice from the creek: "Hello! Are you our men?" "What in the name of "I'm Dodge. Is he hurt?" "Can't find that he is." "An Indian was chasing "him. Soon as I heard the whoop I got my rifle and brought it down here out o' sight. I saw the Indian chasing Conover and plunked him. You'll find the redskin farther on." Sure enough, not a dozen steps beyond where they stood was the dead body of an Indian. Conover revived and with Tommy Hodge was taken back to camp. He was from that time not only the laughing stock of the party, but held, in supreme contempt. Tommy Hodge made several trips with Mr. Brant after that, till the Union Tacific railroad, being completed, took the place of teaming. ITe became the w)le support of his mother and is now one of the principal merchants of the great wRt. , ALBERT MAYNE MURRAY.
