Malloy," seemed kind, of blah, like the
near User' esti: home. What he really
'needed was some: strilcing dramatic
moment when the thing could be -done
with a flourish.
'
As he looked : at the back of Bill
Harkness', head so near to him,
through the fence, an idea occurred to
Dan that seemed to harmonize'his de-
termination to give himself up end his

though it had been a fly. Dan tried
again. Another slap. The next time

dosed down and Harkness walked
away from a place. •so infested • with

"We11," said Dan almost to himself,
"I gave him another chance to catch
me. 'He's a -bum catcher. I'll just
'Wait a little `longer'' berate I give him
t third chance!'.
Butthere was still the chance that
-Callahan might stray in and see him.
So he sneaked up to the barn and
slouched inconspicuously in the deor-
way. ' Through long practice Chuck

Jon&^=,hod .managed to become able, at
will to a r and disappear, noise-

just disappeared.
Callahan rejoined Harkness.
"They eon't know where ho is now.
He.might be in hell for ell the fore-
man cares. I just asked him and he
was damming him from Hell to Break-
fast for all . kinds of a boob. Seemed

I was on a hot scent when I spotted
him. Same color eyes and hair, same
height, and I knew he was a cowboy
the moment I saw him wheeling his
otato -barrow. :Can't fool -me on cow-
boy legs. But nobody ever eaw. hint
ride, -except once," and Calaban went
into a gale of laughter at the reeal-
leotion.
"It was ono time -when I was up at
the ranch," he continued. 'ti was
nosing around to see what I could see.
And this buckeroo had just toed the
gang that ho could ride. That was
just what I wanted to know too, so.I
sneaked around the fence and looked
on. The `gang was all making fun of
him attic he was taking it all serious
like. That outlaw Swet Marie wasen
the corral and that morning she had
thrown Corbett: Well, this Jones gets
- up rather clumsy like and at the veey
first buck he goes o1Y higher'n a kite
No more _horsemanshipei a rabbit
That was 'enough for me. -'
"What :did.Svlatio say when she saw
'ltih.?" asked Harkness. - •
"She just took one -good look at him
and shook her, head. Told me later
that 1 ought to be ashamed to take her
all that way just to see a potato
peeler, when this Malloy was such a
swell'. dresser. Girls are funny
"Wasn't so bad *for you, though,"
said elaij�cness with a wink at his come
}melon. Marie's' a mighty pretty girl.
'Don't know when I've seen a prettier.'
e "Ycs, she';; pretty all right, but cold.
And ahs had a funny little breed maid
along with her. Watched mo like I

Harkness was duly :; introduced and

The first event of the afternoon,
directly after lunciseon, was the Chuck
Wagon -Rater Outside of the Roman
thee, which sane.later•the same after-
noon, and the-. Stage: Coach Race on
Friday, this was ono of the" most ex-
citing events, ' In addltion 'there was a
Chuck Wagon Race every day, wind-
iilg'sp with e grana fiti'alo on Friday.
There Were peizes for each day and
then a grand prize for the wagon that
won on the last day and for the one
that won, the most times and for the
Wagon that .hod averaged the best
tiri�es, far the five races.
But the beat thing about the Chuck
Wagon Rano was the fact that it al-
ways afforded a lot of comedy. Its
conditions were sueh that; •there was a
minimum _of danger, a maximum of
thrill and a eplen'did : chance for the
eeneedians of each camp to exercise
their. ts'ient for the benefit of 'the
crowd. The wild cow milking contest
earlier lir 'the -day had'afforeled much
the Same kind of entertainment.
It is possible that some 'who read
this have never been to a, Stampede
and, that they don't know :what a
chuck wagon is. The word, so applied,-
will not be found in many dietionaaies.
But throughout `the_ west the camp
wagon which provides the food for the
cowboys ori roundup or away from the
ranch is oalled a chuck wagon. In
addition to the camp stove, the dishes
and-food'"lockers, there are. also coir-
pasemeuts for -the stowage of the cow-
boys' bad rolls, the runnislg-irons•,,
horseshoeiivg outfits' and what -not,'
With all of ties miscellaneous baggage.
it is little wonder _the name .chuck
wagon- was given to it. Certaiiely
everything': was ' shucked in 15 that
could trot go on the horse, and a cow
boy hates to have'anybbing on a:horso

As the buetie blew foe the-aafternoohi

stand was dieconaerting, . f,rrayed
along, the infield just beyond the track
proper were' eight chuck wagons, each
arranged jUsteas ;it vouldi be if- the
outfit Were on an official round- up.
Back of,each wagon wits a canvas tent,
one es 1 attached to' the wagon, the
other held up by two poles at the two
cornes;s. Eaoh.,pole was held steady
by a couple of guy :ropes held, to the
grouud with wooden Pine.
This tont fly was about ten feet long
and afforded shelter for the cook and
his water barrel, stove and other para,
phernaha as' well as for the men,when
they were eating. At the start of the
race the men were seated under the
flap gas they would be in camp. That
is, two or 'three of, them were seated.
The driver was on the seat, and in this
form of waggon the driver.'s seat is not.
covered by the canvas that is stretched
on bows over the part of the wagon
