THE LONG NEW CHUM By HOWARD MARCH. HE big cliuni wasn't Ions in ^ getting the hang or things. O | p Ho was a Rood shot to begin with, ninl kept us fairly well supplied with game and kangaroo tail soup. Jackson, our boss, had fixed the name of Cropper on the newcomer, probably because somehow it f> 11 to his lot to get all the "buck-junipers" to ride. He had been thrown so often that lie was getting saddle-shy. lie couldn't understand why it was that the other fellows' horses gave them no trouble, while bis own were shooting him into space nt most unexpected times. "You soo, it's like this, Cropper." the boss would explain to him: "the horses know you're new. anil they're just having fun with you." l.arncs, on the other haml warned him that all tlie horses were only half broken in, that they needed constant watching, and couldn't he trusted for n minute; hut he doubted that. To convince him Barnes rode alongside of Cropper and swung his stock whip lash suddenly under the tail ol' the new chum's mount. The horse clamped Liis tail down upon It like, a vise, dropped his nose to the ground, doubled up like a cat in a hackfence concert,nnd hacked for a 11 it was worth. Ton stone ten of New Chum went bouncing a way from him like n rubber ball, and struck the* ground none too gently. Cropper picked himself up painfully and remarked to Barnes: "A little of tliis will go a long way with me." It did. It went a long way toward making il impossible for a horse ever again to catch him unawares. There was one man in the parly to whom Cropper didn't cotton. That was Johnson, the one-eyed cook. It was a case of mutual dislike. Johnson had begun by trying to rough Cropper, and was promptly called down hard at the muzzle of a gun. lie weakened at once, hut he got some satisfaction out of tollincc tho others what terrible things lie would do one of these lino flnys. The Now Chum Know lie wasn't scared l>y tho ffun, lie said, and ho rcferrcd to tho act us a cowardly Muff. That pavo Barnes an Idea. "I.ook hero, Johnson, why didn't yon call him out?" ho asked. "Call him out. Toll him you want to settle the thing?. There are the two Martini rifles In your woenn, say you're willing to moot him and tiv'lit with them. It ho weakens, you'vtv, pot him. If hi agrees, we'll doctor the cartridges so as you won't hurt one another." ino cook s one eye sparkled at tin thought. "I'll cull him out. nil right." lie said when ho had digested the Idon. "I'll cnll 111m out. nil right, and you needn't doctor the cartridges, either. You'll see. Tf ho doesn't get frightened, why I'll make a sieve of him ;it a hundred yn rds." "Hundred grandmothers!" llarnc; Raid In disgust. "i?o you think \vo'r< going'to waste nil the ammunition ii tlie wagon? You'll meet at ten yards nnd you enn hnvo the ammunltioi faked or not, just ns you please." The cook hesitated. "I don't want t< mangle him." he said. Anally. "If w< meet at ten yards maybe maybe yon't better fake the bullets." '"flint's settled, then." Harnes do clnred. "I'll second Cropper. If be won* come to time I will. I'll be beliim him." "Hold on there." the cook exclaimed excitedly. "We haven't had an; irounio you ami mo. We've got in on 11 to tight." "This end of tlio 'wo' doos nnd will.' Bnrnos said, grimly. "unless this l>?ini noss is settled at onep. Is it to 1> faked or not?" "Why or faked." of oourso," sail the oook. ' I don't know as I roall, want to liurt lilni. A fright will d him a hit of good, though." Thou Mr. Johnson had anotho thought. ? "Of oourso. ho won't know it's to 1> n fnko. There's no need to toll liii that." f v. . . ' ' .
