We find in them all a story which varies only in minor details. -It is to the effect that harvest hand have5 been in great demand, and that very large wages are willingly paid for the most in different sort of labor. -' And right along-ide of this story is almost cer tain to be an account -of how ome farmer attempted 4 to employ" the tramps; who infest every Kansas towh at this season of the j'ear, wifliout In-ing able to secure a single one w;ho would work under any s'ort of inducement. No better testi mony coukl be secured in support of the belief that the greater part off the tramjis are but worthless loafers, who preier to prey upon the alinoBt limitless generosity of the peojde than to stir their lazy bones in pur. suit of an liQneMt living. There is no other race or natron of people on earth that treats beg gars with such profligate alms-giv ing as may bo found in this coun try. It may be more than mwpec ed that the generosity of the Ameri can peoIe has been the prime caifse of raising up an army of prolession al alms-seekers who mora from town to town and insolently demand food and clothing as if b inherent right. Aiid il the free-bunded giv ing of tho people is not sufficient to convince them out of the possession of tho right, any lack of .education in that direction is certain to be supplied ' by demagogues of the stripe of the Populist leaders, who are continually prating about every man's right to a living, whether ho works or not.

In camp Bt n iett'wns a alouchy, un- prepossessing fellow, and his foet, which were unusually large, were always in somebody's way. t He was shy and never intruded himself, but when it came to riding and shooting he was in his glory. : I have ten him many times on the back of a fast hpwe, with the bridle rein in his teeth and a pistol in each hand, charging like mad and shooting with remarkable accuracy. He had the reputation of killing three or four men every time tlifr was a chance, lie was. then in charge of . detail on - foraging ex peditions and got in many skirm ishes iiloiig the road. Later he was unaniniousry chosen captain on account. of hia bravery. .Indeed, ho was like unchained lightning in a hand-to-hand fiht. and it was in one of these that Ben nett distinguished himself.
