RILEY, AND THEIR DEPARTURE FOR THE LINE. A RAILROAD, a telegraph, a policeman, and a bar- ber shop, are the four signs of a complete civilization. Railroad and telegraph lines were rapidly approaching our town. We had been permitted to elect a Justice of the Peace and a Constable. Mr. Murphy provided the barber shop. When Mr. Murphy came to the town to spy out the land, as it were, he was made com- pletely welcome, and received so much encouragement in the way of treats and promised custom that... he decided to locate, and made the surprising statement that he would open up a first-class barber shop the next day. I say "surprising statement" advisedly, for Murphy walked into town looking extremely dirty and tired, as if from a long tramp, his sole baggage consisting of a not very large bundle, suspended from his shoulders by a piece of hay rope. But Murphy was as good as his word, and next morning his shop was running in full blast. A cotton wood pole, wrapped in gaudy stripes of red and white cloth, advertising the fact that Calabazas had at last become possessed of this fourth visible sign of a perfect civilization.
