STAMPEDED AT NIGHT.
TO Bsvce In the Darkness with
a Herd of Cattle.
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

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

A Congressman's Cow Trade.
Represen tat?ve ?'N??li, of Missouri,
is ? veritable son of ibe soil. 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
