"Maw. 1 can't do It That horse anil
me is like brothers."

"Bin we run t starve, anu iue norsp ?

Jim ami bis mother Jived In a w
new town on tbe bank of 1*: Mississippi
river. The population was varlc- ei
giieJ. excitable ami believed in tbe ,0
future of tbe town, which was called h'
Jones City after its founder. Jim was
fifteen years old and born with a
predisposition to horseflesh. Some one
bad given him a colt, which be bad .
traded for a mure, and utter a number
of other trades Ginger, tbe apple of
Jim's eye. was acquired.
Jim left his mother and went out
to tbe river bauk, exceedingly sorrowful.
Tbe mighty 6tream rolled fifty
feet below. Jhn was so disconsolate
that be thought of ending bis
troubles by Jumping Into the' water.
Bat it couldn't end them, because be
could swim like a duck and was sure
that when It came to drowning be
would paddle ashore.
Anyway he was oc~osed to tbe Jump
without taking Glng . with him. Ginger
would back. But he might- blind- ?
fold the horse and be would go over
without knowing it Tbe more tbe
boy thought of tbe matter the stronger
grew in blm a desire to take that leap
on Ginger's back?not now for suicidal
purposes, but because It '.would
be a daring feat. If he announced bis
Intention of doing so what a crowd
would collect to see the leap! Every
one In Jones City would turn out.'
There were 3,000 persons In the
town. Now, suppose every man, wo- te
man and child could be made to pay 0<
60 cents to see tbe show. That would tb
be $1,500. Ginger wouldn't bring more bl
than $150 at most. v ;'
What an Idea!
Having got Into Jim's bead, be
couldn't get it out. It buzzed and siz- tr
zled, but it stuck. Jim thought be
would try to see what he could do with i rc
Ginger blindfolded. He tied a bund I e
kerchief around the horse's eyes. I a,
mounted him and tried to make hlm]ta
go. The experiment for awhile failed,
but so great was the animal's confidence
in his muster that he soon became
reconciled to walking In the dark
while Jim guided him. Then he would
consent to trot slowly. And so by degrees
Jim got blm to move quite rapidly
under the handkerchief.
By this time the idea bad bloomed In
the boy's brain. The bluff from which
be thought of Jumping was perpendicular
and the water beneath it forty J ol
feet deep. Jim considered the danger Ci
to be that the horse in his struggle q
might Injure his rider. He didn't think ^
much of any other danger. It was entlrely
a matter of nerve.
One day Jim appeared in u pool room ;
and shoved n paper under the nose of of
the proprietor. It contained a state- ot
ment that Jim Hawkins proposed for
$1,000 to Jump on his horse Ginger oil a(
the bank Into the river In front of the. ?
town. The proprietor looked at Jim
as If making a mental estimate .'or his
coffin, then, taking up a pen, signed for * ^
$25. Jim left the place with subsciip- joi
tlons for over $200, and before night > oi
the whole amount had been subscribed.: c
It was stipulated that the money was'_
to be placed in the hands of Mr. Jones, J o)
to be paid to Jim's mother, for It was
not considered probable that Jim would (
come out of the stunt alive. R
The only person In Jones City who si
did not know of the approaching enter- b:
tainment was Jim's mother, and he had
persuaded her to visit her sister on p;
the day It was to take place. The ap- j
nroach to the Jumping point was roped j
off to keep back the crowd on either
side, and every one had been cautioned
to do no shouting till after the leap,
lest it should cause the horse to balk.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon Jim,
wearing his birthday suit and a pair
of spurs, mounted Ginger bareback,
the only equipment being a bridle. Jim ci
was a trifle pale, but his month indi- c
cated resolution. The handkerchief Q
was tied carefully over the horse's a
eyes, and Jim role him back and
forth for awhile as a preparatory p
measure. Finally lie took a position R
about a hundred yards from the bank.
A number of persons crowded around ^
him to bid hlui goodb.v. and when they
were put back behind the ropes Jim.
at the signal of a pistol shot, gave
Ginger the word. n
I By the time they reached the edge a(
of the bank the horse was loping, and si
at the right moment Jim lifted him
with the bridle and gave him the spurs. ..
He cleared the bank, and down, down, .
down went rider and horse. Jim clluging

[ranged so that Jim could pull It off

Nevertheless the horse seemed
