KILLED By A METEOR.

The Seneca, 3e,naha county. 1'to"ae
of Thursday. The lith, s'aios that a
man IN that vicinity was killed by me
tcor. Las, Thursday morning. That pa
,,er's account of the matter is rs fol-
lows:
As David Menscthaler, the well
known stock man OF WE:iesiane town
shin. was driving his cows 10 the barn
early this morning, he was struck by al
rrolite m instantly killed. II appears
n if the meteor had come from direc,
lion a little Yves! Of south. and fell III an
augle OF alou. sixty degrees. for it first
PASSED through a tall maple, eating thu
limbs rs If il had been cannon ball, and
struck him apparently on or under ihC
shoulder. passing clear through linn OBJ
liouely from below the right shoulder
10 above the lett hip. and buried ilseli
aho,u Two feet in The soft black ground
The poor n,sn's head and legs are unln
iureJ. but .area;ar part OF his BODY
seems TO have been crashed INTO iii'
earth by the terrible ieroliie. which Is
about the size of a common pateni
bucket. and apparently of a roughly
rou.d shape. II appears 10 be formed
of what Is called iron pyrltes.

A " Paper Hunt"

A favorite amusement with the young
Washington bloods who have more leis
ure and money on their hands than
occupation is the, "paper hunt" A
wild young officer connected with the
Russian legation, who rides black horse
that is q strange compound of pluck,
ugliness and chain lightning swiftness,
rides the country around, and the young
men of some of the local families have
also been mounted and sent out in the
country to follow his example. The
Russian has formed this lot into sport.
ing band, apparently for his own amuse.
ment, AZ they ali hail him delightedly AZ
their chief. There being no foxes ia
hunt in that part of the country, they
have what is called paper hunt to take
its place. The young Russian il the fox.
He dashes ahead, leaving the trail BY hia
occasionally dropping pieces of bright
colored paper. The sport is to follow
him absolutely wherever he goes. This
young Russian daredevil bolts down the
steepest inclines, takes in high fences,
jumps almoat impossible bits of broken
ground, and thus far in his mad career
has pounded his company nearly to
death, besides weakening the arms and
ribs If some of the ambitious youths
who, because the sport is fashionable
have attempted to- follow him. 49,

'' Cutting Out" on Colorado Cattle
Ranch.

Only the first purpose of the" round
up" has been subserved when the cattle
are collected. Next the COWS and calves
must be "cut out" and we saw the
" COW. boys''' ride into the herd, single
out the COW with calf following), and
with great skill extricate her from the
throng. The young calves, are of course,
not yet marked, but the presence of one
with q cow makes it imperative to place
that COWS marx on it. Strayed calves,
on the other hand (called " Mauvaics,"
from an old Frenohman in Texas who is
said to have added largely to his worldly
store by systematic abstraction Of these
waits and strays), are sold for the benefit
of the associated ranchmen. "6rst
catch your calf" as Mrs. Glass would
say. Perhaps you may think that this
is an easy task but you would find, if
you tried it, that you were never more
mistaken in your life, for the ease with
which the ranchers accomplish it has
only come with careful training and long
practice. The little animal runs won.
derfully fast, springs, Turns, and lodges
almost like q fash; but the cowboy
never takes his eyes off Of him, and the
trained horse, now we'll warmed up and
entering full into the spirit of the chase,
responds to, almost seems to anticipate,
every turn of his riders left hand and
wrist. Meanwhile the latter with his
right arm is swinging a noosed rope, OF
lasso, and in another minute he has
thrown it exactly over the Calls head.
Instantly the horse plunges forward.
giving "slack" to the rope, and allowing
it to be wound round the horn Of the
saddle, then he moves on, dragging the
calf after him, and the little creature is
soon in the hands Of the men with the
branding irons. These have been heated
in q hot fire, and are quickly applied,
and in few minutes the calf, now in.
deliably designated as the property Of
his master, is again running about
