A guy rides into an old style Western town to see a crowd of people around the town gallows. The guy, wanting to know what's going on, collars a local and says "Hey, what's going on here?". The local chap says "they're goin' to hang Brown Paper Pete." So our man says "y'what?" And the other chap says "They're a-hangin' Brown Paper Pete." "Well how did he get a name like that?" our chap asks, "Well, " says the chap whose name we don't know, "On his head he wears a brown paper bag, on his feet he wears brown paper bags, on his arms he wears brown papers bags, in fact, he wears brown paper bags just all over his body." "Strange", says our man, "what're they hanging him for?" "Rustling."
