HOG TYING A LONGHORN.
Catohing, Tripping and Roping a Steer
In Twenty-seven 8acond*.
To rope, "bust" and "bog tie" a wild
Texas longhorn single banded in twc
minutes is a sport which represents the
daily work of the ruuge. Men of quick
eye and steady nerve each start their
fifty feet behind the longborn. which
may Jump the arena fence like ? deer
and again and again dodge when it
heure the first swish of the rope. The
rope often breaks on the tautening, or
the saddle may slip, as in the case of
Bill Mabaffey. who landed on his head
with foot caught In the stirrup and but
for the splendidly trained cow pony
might have been dragged and killed.
There goes Cuba Crutchfleld! He
overtakes his sister. Swish, swish! His
inriat zips through the air?a beautiful
throw over the horns. Then the cow
pony braces, and the rope tightens like
harp string. Watching, anticipating
every move of his horned adversary,
the cowboy now circles the animal so
that the rope is brought from the hortas
around the hind legs. A word, and the
knowing pony makes a sudden start
Thud, and the steer Is tripped or "busted."
The rope tautens, and the rider is
already running afoot with a short cord
in hand toward the steei;,. depending
for his own safety on hifftralned cow
> pony to hold that rope taut and the
steer In position. With marvelous de*r
terity he "hog ties" with a number of
half hitches looped about the hind feet
and one forefoot of the steer. The man
stands erect, raises both arms in the
air, and Crutchfleld has not only won
the steer roping championship, but has
'ldden down, roped, thrown apd hog
tied a steer In twenty-seven seconds,
within six seconds of the best record
ever made.?World's Work.

"I hnve to ndmlt." he declared sadly,
"that for a long time those fellows had
me completely bewildered. 1 used to
watch them in amazement. Every time
one of them shot a finger halfway
down thq neck of his fiddle and stopped
It In exnctly the right place for
the sounding note I gasped in astonishment.
-Every time, it seemed, he could
stop that finger correctly within onethousandth
of an Inch. That's what he
had to do in order to make the right
note. And I concluded that he and his
fellows were in some woy superior to
all other kinds of people in the matter

of great confidence, but they never
know exactly where the fingers will
stop. Like any other human being,
they guess at It. Then just as the note
is begun by the scraping of the bow
their trained ears catch the defect, and
they readjust their fingers. Consequently.
although the public doesn't
know it, the great violin geniuses of
the world fill their work with a lot of
notes that start falsely."?Popular Maga2ln&
