TAMING HORSES IN TEXAS.
The flvely tanner ln'Whieh They Are
Broken for Saddle Ilse. .
The mule ranch of Harrison Davis is
:situated. in Grayson county, this state, a
short distance from Sherman, the county
seat. it was here a few days ago that a
correspondent bad the pleasure of seeing
some wild stock broke for saddle use.
There are but afew inen who make it a
business to break horses and who possess
sufilcieut skill and patience to conquer
the fiery spirit of the most vicious animal.
These “wild horse riders," as they are
called, in additiiin to receiving the use of .
the horse while handling him. get fees
ranging from ‘5 to 825. Fearless Frank,
a well known Texas tamer, had been on-
gaged to break a magnificent sorrel,
owned by Mr. Davis, called Mad Ranger.
Ranger was a spoiled horse. He had been
caught several times for the purpose of
being saddled and bridled, but the tamers
had been unable to do anything with him.
The horse lot was incloM by massive
logs and the stoutest timbers, capable of
successfully resisting the most do ed
efforts on the part of the beasts to pe.
Connected with the large inclosure were
several smaller ones, and in one of these
Ranger was driven. Frank then took
from his saddle a coil of threeouarter
inch rope, forty feet long, and a second
coil about half as long, but much heavier;
also, an oilcloth slicker. Thus equipped
he slipped into the inclosure and faced the
horse. Making a noose in one of the coils
of rope he quickly threw it over Ranger‘s
bead and fastened the other end to a post
. called the tug post. The animal com~
inclined to rear and plunge, but at every
plunge the slack in the rope was taken up
and Ranger was soon alongside the post.
Here he was made secure with a Spanish
knot, which his struggles only served to
tighten. '
Seizing the old slicker, the trainer next
hit the horse over the head and neck, .
causing the animal to rear and kick. The
horse was soon tired out, and the blews
that fell upon him scarcely caused him to
wince. 'The trainer next took his long
rope and fastened it around Ranger's
head in such a manner that it served 'as a
halter. The other end of the rope was sc~
cured to the post. A rope was then placed
around the animal's body‘ in such a man-
ner that it would not slip, and another
ropewas fastened to his hind foot. The
rope attached to the foot was drawn
through the one around his body and -
the end taken by the trainer. A couple
of hard pulls brought the foot up to
the stomach, and the horse was compelled
to stand on three legs. thus unnbletokick
or rear. The tamer then patted the horse
on the head and slipped the bridle on.
Then the saddle was put in the proper
place, and the stirrnps “hobbled,” to pre-
vent. any injury to the animal, should he
full. The rider then seated himself in the
saddle, the ropes were taken from the
horse's feet and body, the gate of the pen
opened, and horse and rider dashed outon
the prairie. For fully an hour the infuri-
ated animal reared, plunged and jumped
about, vainly endeavoring to throw his
rider, but finally, becoming exhausted,
came to a standstill, and had to be urged
to even walk. it was then that the horse
was broken—Texas Cor. Globe-Demo-

Prince Wilbelm'a Mar-i”.
If the throat trouble of the crown
of Germany causes his death soon,
the heirto the thmnc will be his eldest
son, Prince William, of whom the
Countess von Krockow writes: “The Ger-
mans cannot forgive an heir apparent of
the throne having been born mediocre in
figure and imperfectly formed. Prince
Wilhelm has a crippled arm. .The fingers
are mere knobs. In the Bursar uniform
there is a pocket, and he wears it because
the three fingers of the helpless member
can be hung in the pocket. Otherwise it
hangs awkwardly and helplessly in its
sleeve. His horses are especially trained,
andhei’ore the princeisto monsters

themdown. Becanjustmanege whom

others, but fixed to the under tine there

A dig at a funeral.
Old John Walton and wife—may they
sit side by side through all eternity as
cheery, radiant and loving as lalways
find them at Russell street, Portland! lie
is over 90 years of ago now, and it is a do
light tolisten to his tales of the days and
ways when the century came in. Among
his earliest and strongest recollections
was a peculiar feature in the burial cere—
monies of the hero of Tripoli, Commodore
Edward Preble, in Portland, 1807.
“They had sent out all the country over,”
he relates, “for band music. No entire
organization could be get But more
than 100 musicians came, sort of on their
own hook. When they got here it was
found that. while the town was overrun
with every manner of musician and mu-
sical instrument, that there was not one
dirge or march they could all play to
gcther, if they were to be hung for it.
The funeral obsequics in every other re—
spect were more imposing than ever before
or since, known here; music must be had
whether or no; and it was finally discov—
ered that the musicians could all play
just one composition. I don‘t remember
the name of it, but anyhow, it was a rol-
licking Irish jig; and the mournfulcortege
actually moved up and down the streets
of Portland, and finally to the old Eastern
cemetery, to louder and livelier strains of
wild lrish music than ever crazed the
heads or bedevilcd the toes of lads and
lassies at a Tipperary fair."—l~ldgar L.

at heavy draught, plowing, log hauling
and such uses the buffalo is at home. lie
is larger and stronger than the American
or. He must have mud holes and creeks
in which he can wallow and baths. The
natives make great use of him for culti-
vating rice. But he must be unhitciiod
when he gets restive, for that is a sign he
wants to bathe. And if the desire isn't
gratified the bufialo straightway becomes
dangerous.
These buffalos, the consul says, are
often, in size and weight, about half way
between a very large or and an average
elephant. They have ponderous and pe-
culiar horns, somewhat like those of the
American buffalo, only much longer.
They are mouse colored generally, have a
very thin coating of hair, and sometimes ;
none at all except at the end of the tail, 1
on the ears and on the head. .
This buffalo thrives best when he has
access to a pond or sluggish creek. lie
