HOG TYING A LONGHORN.
Catching, Tripping and Roping a Steer
In Twenty-seven 8econda.
To n>i>e, "bust" mid "bog tie" u wild
Texas longhorn single banded in twe
minutes is u sport which represents the
daily work of the range. Men of quick
eye and steady nerve eacb start their
fifty feet behind the longhorn, which
may Jump the arena fence like a deer
and again and again dodge when It
hears the first swish of the rope. The
rope often breaks on the tautening, or
tbo saddle may slip, as in the case of
Bill Mahaffey, who landed on his hei'd
with foot caught In the stirrup and but
for the splendidly trained cow pony
might bnve been dragged and killed.
There goes Cuba Crutchfieid! He
overtakes his sister. Swish, swish! Ills
lariat 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 animnl so
that the rope is brought from the hoiMs
around the hind legs. A word, and the
knowing pony makes a sucldeu start.
Thud, nnd the steer is tripped or "busted."
The rope tautens, and the rider is
already running afoot with a short cord
in hand toward the steer:, depending
for his own sufety on hifftrained cow
pony to hold that rope taut and the
steer In position. Wltn marvelous dexterity
tie "hog ties" with a number of
half hitches looped alnrnt 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
ridden down, roped, thrown and hog
tied a steer In twenty-seven seconds,
within six seconds of the best record
ever made.?World's Work.
VIOLINISTS UNMASKED.
Edison Tolls the Secret of How They
Strike the Right Note.
Thomas A. Edison, who has an expert
knowledge of every known mu
sleal Instrument, from the oboe to the
neolian harp, was discussing the great
Violinists of tiie present age. He spoke
with deep feeling.
"I have to admit." he declared sadly,
"that for a long time those fellows had
uie completely bewildered. 1 used to
watch them in amazement. Every time
one of them shot a finger halfway
down the neck of hU fiddle and stopped
it In exactly the right place for
the sounding note I gaeped in astonishment.
Every time, it seemed, he could
stop that finger correctly within ouethousaudth
of nn 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 way superior to
all other kinds of people in the matter
of judging distances.
"But I know better now. After long
and careful observation I have discovered
the truth. Those fellows shoot
their fingers up and down with an air
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 Magazine.
A Change That Worked.
Little Alice was writing Invitations
for her birthday party and had been
instructed by her mother to write the
sentence "Please bring no presents" at
the bottom of each invitation.
The little guests arrived at the appointed
time, but each came with a
gift for the hostess.*
Alico upon being taken to task for
having forgotten the sentence said:
"No, mamma; I put in every single
letter of that note. I only changed the
'no' the least little bit."
The note read, "Please bring on presents."?Ladies'
Home Journal.
Only His Little Joke.
A clergyman who was a widower
had three grownup daughters. Having
occasion to go away from home
for a few weeks, he wrote home from
time to time. In one of his letters be
informed them that be had "married a
Uhlow with sLx children." This creatin
the household. When the .
vicar returned fidfflfl 6T his dangfi-T~
ters, her eyes red with weeping, said
"Where's the widow yon married,
father?"
"Oh, I married her to another man.
I ought to have told you that."?London
Telegraph.
Critioism.
"What play did you see when you
went to the theater?"
" 'Romeo and Juliet.'"
"How did you like It?"
"Well, the costumes were all right,
but Itomeo couldn't dance, and Juliet
wasn't much for looks, and neither one
of 'eni had any real new stufT,"?Washington
Star.
Women and Batting.
"Why is It that men bet and women
don't?"
"Men choose betting as a means of
putting n stop to an argument"
"Well?"
"Well, women never want an argument
stopped."?Cleveland Leader.
She Knew.
"Madam, do you give any of your
tlmo for Belf reflection?"
"Certainly I do. What do you suppose
looking glasses are made for?"?
