FTER weeks of rounding up," ^cutting up," branding and marking, we had gotten together seventeen hun dred bead of the finest steers to be found on the banks of the muddy Peces in New Mexico, says a writer in the Gal veston (Tex.) News. **IVodays later the "tooss" rode into camp, consulted with hie foreman, and eight ren. Including the writer, were chose to drive tbe snorting, bellowing herd to Springer, N. M., a distance of two hun* ?ftred end fifty miles. The evening of tbe sixth day was <?oody and cool, and indication* of an Approaching storm were visible. "Dave ter watch 'em putty close to might, boya,** said our foreman. "Looks dike we're goin* ter bave some rain." Tbe writer was on first guard. Tbe settle were restless, showing a decided disposition to rea, and instead of walk ing our horses around the herd we were compelled to travel at a sharp trot Daylight faded ont and pitchy darkness anoceeded. The cattle were indistin guishable at m dozen paces, and fre quently we were compelled to poll np abort to avoid- colliding with a steer or with each other. This continued until the arrival of tbe second guard, when tbe increased forces succeeded in quiet ing them somewhat, and tbe writer and bis mate started for camp, guided by ?be light of tbe camp-fire, which sbone like a star on a little elevation about a bal f-mile away. We bad scarcely turned into our blankets, fully dressed as usual, with tbe exception of our boots, when the -rain commenced to fall, in drops at first, bat steadily increasing to a downpour. 'Blankets were drawn over beads and grunts of displeasure were beard on every side, when a rumble and shaking of tbe ground was beard, mingled with hoarse shouts. They're ruauiagr* yelled tbe fore man. Jumping from bis. blankets. "Mount! mount! every one of you," running to bis bone as be spoke, which was picketed a short distance away. Not waiting to don boots, the writer sprang to bis borse, vaulted into the saddle, and tore off after the foreman, tbe flickering light of tbe camp-fire, fast being extinguished by the rain, re vealing tbe remaining men hurriedly preparing to follow. Guided by tbe thunder of hoofs tbe herd was soon overtaken, and. in obedi ence to tira foreman's yells, I strove to **get in front of .*? I could faintly discern ia tbe darkness a line of bellow ing, snorting beasts, and urging "Nig ger Baby* to bis utmost reached tbe end of the line and there found two of (be boye galloping In tbe lead, shouting BS 8PBAXO TO SIS OB m and waving their oil-coats or "slick craT and trying to stop the headlong ? flight. j Tbe confusion of the scene was inde scribable. Tbe terrified snorts of the 1 Cattle were almost drowned by the ' clashing of horns, thunder of the hoofs, I and shouts of the men. My oil-coat was I strapped to my saddle, not having bad I time to unfasten iL I toro at the , leather straps, succeeded in loosening , them, and turning In my saddle shook it before the leaders, adding my sbouts to tbe din around me. As well try to stop tbe torrent of ' Niagara, Tbe wild race was un slack- < cned. and, from traditions. I knew that a misstep of my horse sufficient to , throw me, or ..his fall, meant that I , would be cut to pieces by tbe sharp hoofs of tbe catti ?. Then an unexpe<ted event occurred. * The nerd divided fn two sections, of which I was the sole leadnr of. while the other portion galloped off at right ! angles, led by my two companions. For ' a few minutes I could hear theirsbouti. 1 tben they grew fainter and fainter, and were finally lost in the gallop of hoofs around me. ! On we thundered. My throat was raw and swollen from shouting and my "slicker" had fallen from my hand. The rain had ceased, but I was wet to : the skin and numbed by the cool air. 1 thought tbe sound of hoofs was not so deafening, and as tbe clouds blew away so that I could see a few yards in front of me I found that I was leading about S dozen steers that had become sepa- 1 rated from the herd. I had just made i1 this discovery when tbey slackened ? speed and finally stopped, panting and quivering, all the run knocked out of j them. Of what use was a handful of ? steers out of one thousand and seven j hundred? Riding off a few yards I ; listened, but could bear no sound of m y j companions. Becoming conscious of a ' severe pain in my left foot, I reached down and found that I was literally ; a cactus, having ridden through a bed of the prickly stuff, my foot unprotected by boots. In the excitement of the run I had not felt it, but now the pain was in tenso. I plucked such as ] could and then deliberated what was best to da Iffy lone dozen steers had wandered away and I made no effort to overtake them, knowing the naelessness of the undertaking. ' fiere wws a predicament In the mid dle of tn'? prairie, shoeless, and shiver ing with cold, not knowing in what direction to go to reach camp and my borse blown with his fearful run. Know ing the instinct of horses I dropped t ho bridle-re ins and suffered him to go where he would. He promptly wheeled around and started off on a slow trot which he kept up for about fifteen minutes. I knew we were camped on the bank of the river, and supposed that he would go in tnafc direction, but wishing to test his instinct I turned him from his chosen course and to my dismay he com plied and started off in the new direc tion just as willingly. I tested him from every point of the compass? and he teemed to go in any direction just as willingly. I gave ep In despair then, and con cluded *) keep him moving until day light when I knew I could find the river. On he trotted, while I began to corse tbe fate that ever led me to be HX SHOOK BIS OIL-COAT BSFOBE THE LEADERS. come a cow-puncher. After riding I should Judge an hour I was delighted to find myself on the river bank; but then a new question arose: Was the camp be fore me or behind me? Again I tested the horse. He would go up or down, just as I pleased. I peered through the darkness, trying to look for any thing that might serve as a guide, when afar off in the distance I saw a faint light which grew toa tiny blaze and then died out Where there was a light there must bo life, and with renewed hope I galloped off in that direction, and about ten minutes later had tbe satisfaction of seeing the canvas top of tbe mess wagon looming up before me. The light I had seen was a match in the hands of one of the boys, who had struck it to light tho lantern, which had burned out Its last flickering gleam had been seen by me r?uite ac cidentally, and his providential light ing of a match bad guided me aright We were the only two of tbe outfit who reached camp that ni erbt. Tbe others, like myself, had chased the cattle until they scattered, and had spent the night in a vain search for camp. Daylight found many of them traveling in an entirely opposite direc tion, and one nearly ten miles from his destination. Messengers were dispatched to a ranch across the river and to another twenty miles away. Men were sent to our assistance, and with a force of twenty cowboys the scattered cattle were rounded up in two days and we continued our journey, having lost bot six head in the wild stampede. Evidences of the wild rush of tho cattle were plentiful in the broken horns, and two carcasses were found al most trampled to a jolly. Tho poor brutes, exhausted, bad fallen to the ground only to be cut to pieces by tbe sharp hoofs of their companions. Four times they stampeded before Springer was reached, but the stampedes fortunately occurred on clear nights, and were stopped with little difficulty Theory med Practice.

Among bri Constituents be is a granger himself His district lies in the upper part of St Louis, but as it embraces the billy goat and garden truck suburbs of the metropolis of the Mississippi, bis constituency is. somewhat rural. To this element O'Neill bas long been a walking encyclopedia of information concerning crops and live stock. ?? Dur ing the. last campaign, while visiting, he met one of his farmer constituents, driving s cow. He at oqce began to air his knowledge of bovine breeds. In the height of bis enthusiasm be offered to boy the cow. The farmer was not anxious to sell, bnt said he would take $65 for her. 'Drive her up to my house," said O'Neill, "and 1 be there to pay you ;be money." The farmer regretted that be had consented to part with his favorite cow, ind said: "Let me tell y pu, Mr. 3 Nei il, the cow is s. gentle creature ind a good milker, bet she bas do upper eeth " 'Of course that changes the trade,'' aid Mr. O'Neill. "Yon wouldo'i. ;xpect me to take a eow with such a lefect as that ; but bring me a .good niiker with sunnd upper teeth, and I'll, joy ber." When the story got out there was great excitement in the cabbage end >f hi* district. The grangers swore hey would not have a congressman fho was *'blamed fool enough to be i?v? that cows had upper teeth !' As result. O'Neill was only re-elected )y the skin of his own upper teeth. Why Artists Study The Node. There is. however, a much strong er reason why artists have devoted hemselves to the nude. Ideas, if [hey are to be exj rested in graphic >r plastic art, must be incarnated, tnd the human figure is the one great nediitm of expression for . abstract d?*as in the arts. That the figure diould be nude if it is to exprens rreat and simple ideas, seems also latural. As Adam and Eve "were laked and were not ashamed," so he gods and heroes of ali peoples lave been the glorified o a* ural man ?clothes were an impertinence to fupiter or Apoto. If one ?gures a luman incarnation of some great dea, Force or Love or Glory or beauty, it seems natural that the artificial trappings of civilization thculd be discarded, and one does tot see what costume could have to lo with Michael Angelo's Night and Morning. Truth is always "naked/' md Ibe Golden Age had no need of dot bes. In this sort of woik drapery nay, indeed, be used, but for orna nent, not f?r coveting. In ideal art he functions of drapery are to give nase and dignity . to what might otherwise be divided, to contrast Multiplicity and intricacy of small i)lds with the broader forms of the laked body, to give variety of color o a composition that would other vise be monotonous. Michael Ange o was, above all, a master of the inde, but in his earlier work he uses Irapery magnificently for these ends t was only in his old age that he at tempted, in the last Judgment, to uppress it altogether, and the result * not eneooraging. But the use of Irapery in ideal art is as purely for rtistic reasons as is its absence, and ias nothing to d?> with the propriety f clothing.- "The Nude in Art," >y Kenyan Cox, Scribner's Maga ine. ? - Success in everything depends largely upon ood health. l)e Witt's Little Early Risers re little health producing pills See the orni?
