Show u . THE POSTMASTER OF ARAPAHO. Cy Hdwenstino, the new postmaster at Aarapaho, took charge of the post office on the glorious Fourth. Cy was formerly cowpuncher and up to the present is closely identified with the live stock interests of Custer county. A story h? told on him which illustrates illus-trates how a man's character w.'ll creep out through his overy-day transactions trans-actions and how force of habit will sway one's thoughts and actions. One of the patrons of that office, when calling call-ing Xor his mail, was asked by the new postmaster "how it was branded." It Its also told on him that when he first took hold of the cancellation stamp ho handled It very gingerly for fear of burning himself. Nevertheless, Neverthe-less, It is hoped ho will bo careful enough not to bunch the mavericks with the branded cattle or get other people's stock in the wrong corral, which unfortunately has frequently $ been the case on that reservation.
