One of the evidences was a she-sheriff named Susie. But Susie had seen Eddie Polo in the pictures and had adopted his pattern of shirt and his inexhaustible revolvers. By looking cross-eyed she could shoot a man standing at right or left angles with the accuracy of a boomerang thrower. Susie's brother was a bold bad man, although in Susie's hands he was like putty. His gang was always falling afoul of the liquor laws. The greatest indoor sport in Parched City was going to the express office and calling for shipments of dynamite, T.N.T. and Mustard Gas, but finally Susie got wise to this game and shot her revolver through every package as it went by the desk. As a glassware exhibit it wasn't worth taking away. Al Cohol called for his shipment. Susie busted the look with a well-placed shot and out jumped a ferocious lion. When the lion got through with the town it was still more parched and not a drop to wet its whistles. Written by
