Blue—Phillips Wedding.

The oiroos’ wild animals were, for the most part a very mild aggregation, and not diffionlt to i keep under oontrol; but the jangle tiger whose sole subsistence is the fellow'who thinks he can beat another mad- at his own game, is an ngly brute, and it required a firm stand of not alone our sheriff oity marshal to keep him from breaking loose, but equally or more so, were Proseoating Attorney Sink and bis deputy Oapt. Marshall, to be credited for that good work. The acting head \ manager of the show called personally on the two last named and sought by every argument and intimation to get their assurance that the gamblers and fakers would not be severely dealt with, but be was sternly informed that every f person who attempted any gambling or skin games would be arrested immediately and proseouted to the full extent of the law. Mr, Girons Man saw that he was getting the straight tip with the bark on it, and no Sundav-Sohool pionic could have been nicer than the oirous grounds were here. If the same firmness in repressing the gambling and swindling were shown them at every town, they would depend less on those means I\£or making money and more on giving the people a good snow.
