THE WILD" STALLION.
___———-
“About as bad as I was ever scared,”
said the Montana cattle man, who
was one of the number seated in the
smoking room of a sleeper on a west-
bound train out of Chicago the other
night, “was a year ago, up in the Mus-
selshell river country, in Montana. But
then the story is rather tame, and you
wouldn’t probably care to hear it."
“Go ahead!” came almost simulta-
neously from the balance of the
group. , __
“I have been on the range for sev-
eral years,” he began, “and have more
than once boasted that it was useless
for a man to hang a six shooter at his
side and ing it around with him, as
most of the cowboys do when either
riding the range or driving ’cross
country in a buckboard; but I want
to register myself right here as being .
in favor of a six-pistol for a. compan- '
lon, when on the range, from this time
on.”
“On account of the Indians and
wild animals, I presume,” interrupted
the yotmgest man in the compartment.
“No, sir, not on account of the In-
dians, as the only Indians in that part
of the country are the Crows, who
get ofi their reservation occasionally,
and a few straggling Crees, who have
come across the Canadian line to dis-
pose of some of their ornamental
work in buffalo or cow horns, and
these are harmless. But as to the
wild «animals, yes.
“It was necessary for me to make a
buckboard trip up into the Judith Ba-
sin at the time of which I speak, and
I started from Miles City with a tough
span of cayuses that could take us six-
ty days just like a tap—I say -‘us,’
’cause I had a big Irishman with me
that I Was taking out to the ‘H X’
ranch, as cook for the outfit. it -‘”
“We made the- team hit the trail
from the start, and along toward the
afternoon we passed Musselshell
Crossing. '
“Between . -usselshell Crossing and
_ Round Up considerable distance can
be saved by taking a cut through the
Bull Mountains, though the road is a
good deal rougher than it is by follow-
ing the riser, so we concluded we’d
take the mountain road.
“We’d got over the worst of the road
and up on the bench land, where we
could spin along at a lively clip, when
we noticed a bunch of horses in the
road ahead of us. We didn’t pay any
attention to this, as it, is quite a com-
mon thing to See a band of horses in
thatglocalitylin the winter, when there
is no snow, as the feed is good
there.
“As we drove up, the animals moved
away from the trail on either side.
We had just got past the band when
I heard the most horrible shriek that it
has been my lot to hear, and on look-
ing around a sight met my eyes that
gave me a case of the ‘buck ague‘
and caused the sweat to start from
every pore. Coming straight for us,
on the dead run, was a fine look’ng,
jet black stallion, with his ears back,
and his nostrils extended in a fierce
rage.

had no gun to defend ourselves with,
and I am free to confess that the
thought running through .. my mind
was that my accident policy had been
made good for another quarter the
day before, and my family were sure
of at least five thousand dollars as the
case then stood.
“The stallion was almost wfihin
reach of us when I threw the lines to
my companion. It was useless to try
to urge the cayuses to cater stked. I
grasped the whip by e small end,
laid the loaded butt on the dash-board
and when the stallion got within
reach I stood up, laid my whole
strength on the effort, and brought the
but end around with full force atfl
caught Mr. Stallion across the nose. i
The blow staggered him for a second
or so, butrecovering himself he gave
another yell Of rage and came at us
again. .. '
“I braced myself for another trial.
When he again got so close that we
could feel the wind from his nostrils
on our beats, I repeated the blow, and
this time caught him between the eyes
with such force that I broke the Whip;
but the'blow,-thank God! must have
blinded him, for he stood still for a
few minuteo, with his front teeth Wide
. apart, then began to aimlessly wan-
'der around as a blind horse would. ~
“We got out of there as soon as we
could, and I borrowed a rifle at the
next ranch. I ain’t taking any chanc-
es from this time on, and I’m none too
good to'lug a pistolwith me now when
.on the range.”
“What would the stallion have (301%
if he had overhauled you ‘2” queried the
young fellow.
“We wouldn‘t have lasted as long as
a snowball in Hades if he could have
once got his teeth on us. I saw one
man bit and stamped to death by a
stallion, and you can excuse me from
.a fate of that kind. Well, it’s about
time to roll in."

" NEW YORK FASHIONS. '
White in all sorts of materials stands
high in pepular favor this summer. It
is usually cambined with some dainty
color, and a gown of this spotless fab-
ric can hardly be called quiet. For the
girl who may Only possess one thin
summer frock, white organdie is tho
most desirable, while a sash of red.
blue, pink, or some dainty shade gives
the necessary touch of color to it.
These diaphanous gowns are gener-
ally made over a. dropyskirt, some-
itimes of silk, but oftener of one of
the many imitations, which are much
lighter in weight and serve the pur-
pose quite as well. Another addition
0 the present summer skirt is the
lcircular flounce, a fashion which,
‘though quite common, does not lose
(its popularity, but seems to gain in»
:favor as the season advances. This is
(chiefly owing to the fact that they are
made in so, many different designs,
Ithere is very seldom a. repetition of
like same pattern. Some are made
( straight all around, others are narrow
.in the front and grow wider toward
) in the form of ripples. Many persons,
(however, prefer the three dainty lace
'trimmed rumes just at the foot of the
lskirt, while others boast tiny ruffles
lfrom the waist line down one after
the other.
, There appears to be no end to the
l" many lovely accessories for adorning
7the neck and encircling the waist of
i,,the fair summer maid. Whether in-
' tended for the severe tailor made girl
,cr the maiden attired in all the finely
necessary for an afternoon tea or an
evening dance, they are all extremely-
stylish and up-to-d-ate. Asoots, fore-in-
hands, and string ties in every shade
and material are the proper neck fix-
ings for the shirt waist girl, although
many fancy the fluffy ties of new 01'
infill brought twice around the neck
and tied in an immense bow beneath
the chin. White tafieta ribbon em-
ployed in this manner is also popular,
and there is no doubt that. these adorn-
ments are more'vbecoming than the stif-
hy starched white collar. - ~

BROUGHT DOWN THE‘HOUSEL
. ——n
A Story Well Told Which Saved allian-
' ber's Seat. ‘
Probably the best speech made in the
last session of Congress was the speech
of E. w. Cormack, 9. Memphis editor,
whose" seat was contested by the Hon.
Josiah Patterson, an adorer of ex-Prcs-
ident Cleveland. It had the old Ser-
echoes of the hall of the House of Rep-
resentatives as they had not been
awakened in years. Withal it was a
very effective speech. It captured votes
and held Mr. Carmack’s seat when
nothing else could have held it. It was
heard with breathless interest, and was
widely cheered when Mr. Carm-ack sat
down.
In reply to General Grosvenor, who
had made a stirring appeal in behalf of
Patterson, Mr. Cormack said:
“I always tremble at the thought of
confronting so valiant a. tongue-slugger.
and so accomplished a. lip-artist as the
gentleman from Ohio. His prowess in
this arena entitles him to be regarded
as the veritable blue—gum nigger of de-
bate, an onatorical scorpion whose
tongue- is in his tail. It has been said
that I had reformed, but the gentle-
man from Ohio had not. It will be a
very sad day for reform if he ever
does. I feel about him like an old col-
ored preacher down in Tipton country,
in my district, felt about a. certain con-
vert. This preacher had just concluded
a powerful ‘exhortation, and the voices
of the congregation were quivering on
the second line of that good Old hymn,
“\Vhile the lamp holds out to burn, the
vilest sinner mar»r return.’ At this
juncture a particularly tough old rep-
robate, with chicken feathers all over
his head, got up in the back part of the
audience and started toward the altar.
The preacher for a moment stood
speechless and aghast with horror,
and then, throwing up hi‘S‘hands, he
excl-aimed at the top of his voice: ‘Dea-
con Simmons, fo’ gracious sake blow
out de lamp.‘ If the honorable gen-
tleman from Ohio should ever show a
disposition to reform and come in our
direction, I want to blow out the lamp
before he gets there."
It was a ten-strike. Everybody in
the House burst into a roar, and no-
body laughed more heartily than Gros-
venor himself.—-Washington Post.
GENERAL GRANT AT THE OPERA.
He Was Not Disturbed by Parepa Rosa’s
. Singing.
Time flies like a champion scorcher
on a ’98 wheel. It seems only the other
day that Nellie Grant was a sunbeam
of a lassie, in short frocks, with her
hair tumbling about her shoulders in
a brown fluffy heap—and now to think
of h’er being the mother of grown up
girls! _Oh, dear! Oh, dear! Oh, dear!
And thinking of her as the little maid
of the I’Vhite House recalls a funny
story about herself and General Grant.
They had gone to the opera, Nellie sit-a
ting sedately erect in a maroon velvet
suit, and her father lounging comfort-
ably in the background, talking to a
correspondingly lounging friend.
The house was crowded, but as Pa-
repa Rosa, with portly figure and a
l voice as grand and deep as the coean—
l almost—appeared on the stage, the pri-
lma donn‘a was conscious of but one
presence—the warrior whose deeds
I were so renowned that for very awe she
; trembled—she who had hobnobbed 'with
kings. '
‘ She might have spared herself her
i. emotions, however, for the general was
imightily interested in his statesman
l friend beside him, and the great Eng-
‘ li-sh singer might have been promenad-
l ing on the cliffs of her native Albion
i for all the general knew or cared.
l
Then the little girl Whispered: “Papa,
: Parepa is singing.”
W'hcreupo-n the hero of Shiloh inter-
‘ rupted his conversation long enough to
say, indulgently—he adored his small
daughter—“All rig-ht, Nellie; she's not
disturbing us. Let her sing.” And the
best part of the story, next to it being
.true, was that Parepa heard of it
through the statesman, and, being as
humorous as she was portly, she had
a good hearty laugh ether own expense
and admired Grant more rthan ever.—

The Spanish Soldier.
“There are many things to admire
about the Spanish Tommy,” says Rich-
ard Harding Davis in "Pageants and
Campaigns of 1897.” “In the seven
fortified cities which I visited there
were thousands of him. I never saw
one drunk or offensive, which is much
more than can be said for his officers.
He trudges from‘ fifteen to thirty
miles a day over the worst roads ever
constructed by man, in canvas shoes
with rope soles, carrying 150 cartridges,
50 across his stomach and 100 on his
back, Weighing in all fifty pounds. 'With
these he has his Mauser, his blanket
.and an extra pair of shoes, and as
many tin plates and bottles and ba-
bread as 'he can stow away in his blouse
and knapsack. ‘And this under a sun
which makes even a walking stick seem
a burden. In spite of his officers, and
not on account of them, he maintains
good discipline, and "no matter how
tired he may be, or «how much {he may
wish to rest on his plank bed, he will
always struggle to his feet when the
officers pass and stand at salute. He

The Toad’s FavoriteFlower.
A correspondent of the Popular Sci-
ence News had a pet toad, which was
kept in a small greenhouse, where it
was particularly useful in devouring
noxious insects. It made its home In
the earth among the roots of a calla.
lily. Though moved continually to oth-
er quarters quite as comfortable, it
would vacate and be always found in

Everyone -' knows the famous tale of" :
the princess who could not sleep be-
cause under _
pea was lOdged. In reality the ancient
royalties Were just asfussy, manage
from the strange rules” of etiquette
which surrounded ’the most .'trivial
objects. .; , '.
The following is a true account of
the way His Majesty Henry VII. had
his Royal bed made. ‘ It is taken from
an old manuscript, and it is certainly
amusing: . ; '
"The curtains must be draWn, and
a. gentleman usher must hold the cur-
tains together; then must two squires'
of the body stand at the We head.
and two yeomen of the Crown at the
bed’s,feet,. and all the stuff laid safe
at the We feet on a carpet till the'
contents of the palliasse were remade.
“Then a yeoman to leap upon the
bed, and roll, him up and down, and
array the litter; then to lay down the
canvas again, then the feather bed, and
beat it well, and make it even and
smooth. Then take the fustian (un-
der blanket), and cast it upon the bed
”without. any wrinkles, and the sheet
ln the same wise."
The sheet is now stroked smooth,
tucked under the feather bed, and over
it is laid “t’other stuff,” that is to say,
the upper sheet, blankets, and fustian,
and the covering of marten’s fur and
ermine. . _
A sheet of Rennes was laid on the
spot. destined for the pillows, and a
large rug of ermine was placed over
the bed, and the bed-clothes were
brought up to the edge of the pillow
and neatly turned down.
Finally "a yeoman was required‘to
beat the pillows and throw them up to
the squires to lay them on the bed
head, as pleaseth the king’s grace."
No wonder that squires, gentlemen
and yeomen retired after these efforts
and, as the chroniclcr assures us, had
a. good drink.
For the Summer Luncheon.
Now that it is a little late for grape-
fruit in its perfection, early summer
luncheons frequently start with a lus-
cious orange served as the‘shaddock
has been. If the orange is too sweet,
a few drops of lemon juice and a bit
of rum gives it a pleasant flavor, the
lump of sugar usually put in the grape-
fruit being omitted. One would ad-
vise, however, in the service of the
orange basket, omitting the oyster
cocktail, which has been popular in the
grape-fruit course at spring and early
summer luncheons. This requires a
seasoning of tOmato catsup, lemon
juice, and salt, and a few drops of to- .
basco sauce, and the combination with
orange is not so satisfactory as with
the less sweet shaddock. Cherries,
however, served in oranges are both
effective and appetizing. At a lun-
cheon the other day half of a luscious
orange rested on a few cherry leaves.
Three or four large black cherries had
been carefully stoned and a blanched
almond inserted in place of the pit. A
few drops of rum had been added to
sach'orange, the cherries resting on
the pulp of the fruit. The course was
served ice-cold, a. necessity with any
of these combinations.

Light Furniture.
It is a testimdny to our growing san-
itary wisdom that bedrooms should
now be so universally done in light ef-
fects. The heavy suits of furniture
deemed indispensable to the bride set-
ting up housekeeping a. generation ago,
and whichtook a. considerable share
of the outfit-purchase money, are to-
day the mo’st. unsalable articles sent
to an auction-room. A large and
splendid black walnut bedstead that
cost $60 thirty years ago, without even
springs, brought a dollar and a. half
at an emotion sale. With it was sent
a. small white iron bedstead with brass
trimmings, the sort thatecosts eight
and a. half to ten dollars. This-Was
sold the same day for $3. a good
evidence of the proportionate demand
for the two articles No heavy dra-
'peries are put in the modern bedroom,
only dainty and washable stuffs. The
air is allowed to penetrate freely and
the light as well, extra shades of green
Holland being-provided to darken the
room for the mrning nap. The heavy
mahogany or walnut dresser has gone
with the big bedstead, the chiffonief
and a little dressing-table with a
chevai-glass taking its place.
M
Creamed Corned Beat.
A variation of the familiar , and,
when well made, popular corned-beef
hash is given by a. cooking-school
teacher as creamed corned beef. The
left-over cold cooked corned beef is
cut into dice and stirred to a sauce
before it is put into a buttered pud-
ding—dish, the mixture covered with
half a cup of cracker crumbs or grated
bread crumbs, stirred into a little melt-
ed butter. The dish is then set in the
oven and baked until the crumbs are
brown. The sauce is made by cream-
ing two tablespoonfuls of flour and two
of butter with two cups of hot milk,
into which a. slice of onion. has been
put during the heating process. The
onion Should be taken out when the
sauce is cooked thick, and a. flavoring
of celery salt added.

Dewey Got Even with Farragut.
When Dewey was first lieutenant of
one of we gunboats which Farragut
used as a dispatch boat the admiral
used often to come aboard and steam
up near the levee to reconnoitre. The
Southerners had a way of rushing 3.
field piece to the top of the high bank,
firing point blank all: the gunboat and
then backing down again. Upon one.
such occasion Farragut saw Dewey
dodge. “Why don‘t you stand firm,
