- TWISTING A • BRONCHO., --
How Colts Aro Put Through the Grand
Merry-go-round.
Ile was a big black beauty of a colt
and just as mean as he was handsome.
Brone had never been thoroughly bro-
ken by his former owner,, and when I
first saw him he was in the hands of
the best horse breaker in camp, who
was putting the finishing touches'to his
education.
"They called this pony a' outlaw
afore i took a -bolt of him,' remarked
the broncho twister. "Shucks! Now-
adays of a boss bucks his caddie blan-
kets MTh him the boys say: 'Outlaw!
Bad broncho! Guess I'll ride that old
boss over yonder.'
"I've sweated most of the ugliness
outen him a'ready," continued the
trainer. "Ile ain't got but one mean
habit left, an' today I'm a-goln' to tarn
him to fergit it,"
The mean habit referred to was this:
When Brouc decided to go straight
ahead he'd go -over rocks and clown
the steep banks of a wash, through
cactus and the well named cat's claw,
and if the ebollas pricked him or the
curved claws of the brush snatched at
his flanks he would throw in some
fancy bucking for good measure as he
tore along. bit turn? never!
The trainer took his riata from the
saddle horn and tied one end to the
rope bridle or haekamore, fastening it
securely under the jaw. Then he pet-
ted the colt, working toward its flanks,
until the auhnal allcwed him to reach
the tail and fasten a loop of rope in its
heavy strauds,
The free end of the Hata was passed
through the loop in a way which would
bring the horse's head and tall togeth-
er when tightened, and by passing the
data once more through both hacka-
more and loop it wqs prevented from
slipping when released.
"Now fer the grand merry -go•
round!" announced the twister, and,
standing away from -the colt's heels, he
pulled the data taut until the animal
was beut nearly double. "I eep turnip'
till I say you loin stop," Lie command-
ed, and in fact the bewildered creature
was r'evolt'ing like a top and painfully
learning the old lesson of his race= -that
mau's will is law for the horse.
We sat In the shade of a mesquite
watching him for Twenty minutes or
so, when the broncho twister decided
that the stiff neck was sufficiently lim-
ber. When he mounted he discovered
his error, The frightened horse danced
,'and bucked with hits and finally tried
to roll over the rider, who sprang from
the saddle just in the nick of time.
But his patience was by no means
exhausted.
"here's ti shore way to make 'em
limber'," be announced, and, picking up
a large Gat stone, he tapped the horse's
neck for a few minutes steadily, but
not with sufficient force to hurt him.
"IIe'll feel that petty soon an' find it
easier to turn than brace his tender
neck agin the reins."
reversed -
that
the pony lead been re v
that is, tied bead and tail on the oppo-
siteside-and allowed to rotate anoth-
er hay hour, he was dripping with
sweat• and completely subdued. The
broncho twister mouuted, and the colt
allowed himself to be ridden about the
flat until he tangled in his trailing
Bata and fell, the rider still on,top.
"Now we'll turn him loose an' see
bow be behaves hisself," remarked the
trainer, and, unsliugilg the ropes, he
again mounted and rode the now tract-
able horse in circles and figure eights,
wheeling and turning at will.
As the trainer concluded, "I'd a heap
sooner twist this critter's neck with a
rope than have him break his back an'
mine, too, over yonder cliff."

Br'onc's hard lesson.
Many people mak* a mistake in think-
ing that the only office of a pill is to move
the bowels, but a properly prepared pill
should act beneficially upon the liver and
the entire glandular and secretory system.
This is just what Milburn's Laxa-Liver
Pills do, and by their specific alterative
action cure Liver Complaint, Biliousness,
Jaundice, Constipation, Flatulency,
Heartburn, Headache, Dyspepsia, Water
Brash, Catarrh of the Stomach, Coated
Tongue, Foul Breath, and all diseases
arising front impurities clogging the sys-
tem.
They aro small and easy to take, and do
not gripe, weaken or sicken. They may
be used as a mild laxative or a strong
purgative according to the dose. •

East indian Magic.
A former French chief justice in
Cbandernagore, Jacolliot, gives an ac-
count of several curious performances
that were displayed for his benefit by
a yogi named Govinda-Swami on the
terrace of his own house. Being by no
means credulous, Jacolliot took every
Precaution to prevent deception. Fine
sand was strewn on the grouud in or-
der to make as even a surface as pos-
sible. Jacolliot was asked to seat him-
self at a table upon which were a pen-
ell and paper. The fakir carefully
laid a piece of wood upon the sand and
announced that whatever figures .Jacol-
liot might draw on the paper the piece
of wood would transcribe precisely
upon the sand. The yogi stretched out
his hand, and the wooden piece Meme
("lately copied upon the sand the most
complicattat and twisted figures that
Jacolliot drew. When the Frenchman
stopped writing the piece of wood also
came to a standstill. The fakir stood
at a distance against a wall, while
Jacolliot held the paper and pencil in
such a way that the Indian could not
possibly see what he was inscribing.

Well Turned.
It would be a pleasant thing if all
people who are piagued with short

the composer Rossini once turned his
own defect into a grapeful compliment.
He Diet at a dinner one evening Bishop,
the famous English hong writer, to
whom lie batt been introduced on a
previous occasion and to whom he had
taken an instant liking.
"Good evening, Mr."- began Rossini
cordially, extending his baud, but the
name of his English acquaintance had
basely deserted him for the moment.
There was scarcely a perceptible
hesitation on his part, however, for in-
stantly he began to whistle softly the
ollenina bars of llishop's glee, "When
the wind I3Iows."
The face of ileo "English Mozart," as
Bishop was often called, lighted up
with a smile of gratification, and Ros-
slurs failure to recall his name was in-
stantly forgiven in the recognition of
his pretty compliment.

Our Sacrifices.
The gentlemen who bear for us
The burden of the day,
Who monkey with the government
And beard the powers that prey,
May not be for their toil and pains
Appreciated quite,
But still they draw a salary,
And that may help a sight.
They let their private business slide,
Their happy homes desert
And journey down to Washington
With useful laws to dirt;
They watch around with sleepless eye,
Like faithful Old Dog Tray,
And only get for all their work
The honor and the pay.
While we sit pleasantly at home,
Enjoying more or fess
Our grand and gracious government,
Removed from all distress,
Our statesmen, sternly standing pat
On some fine, wholesome law,
Work twenty-six long hours a day
And only one pay draw.
We ought to treat these noble ones
As though they were our friends
Instead of pelting them with names,
Tin cans and odds and ends.
See all the things they do for us
And all the things they darn
And only draw three times the pay
They could command elsewhere.
