There was a general air of eager expectancy among the waiting native sons and daughters of the “Eureka” state, each of whom had a loved one or a dear friend about to debark. Suddenly a gasp of incredulity went up from the happy, carefree throng; a low, angry murmuring started and went rumbling through the crowd, gathering momentum and volume as it sped on. In a few moments the mass of people was a scething, roaring mob. Cries of “Deport the alien! Lynch him! Get a rope!” smote the balmy air (Adv. —see foregoing instructions). A passing real estate agent, hear- ing the hubbub from afar, ran through the station and onto the platform. What might this excitement be? And then he saw, and seeing, understood, and understanding, became as an avenging angel. “Make way!” he thundered majesti- cally, taking a revolver from his pocket. Drawing a bead on a hapless figure on the car platform, he shot the man through the heart, to the accompani- ment of hysterical cheers from those about him. He had shot an Eastern tourist who had appeared carrying an umbrella. —Hal Smith. At Travelogerheads Dedicated to those who are dedicated to Jealousy ...
