N,sntRun OF CsI,,e on the Drive.

Last fall large herd of big steers for mar
Ret were being driven the country from Mus
ceshell TO Billings, on the Northern Pacific Railroad
where they Ia be shipped The Tor Chicago.
There were about ., 900 head, I should fudge, tho
property Of a Mr. he Has, very Young man. one
evening military camp had been made Just ahead Of
tho cattle and on the same side Of the creek with
them, up which the herd was being driven. A storm
was coming up, aud the cattle exhibited some slgus
Of uneasness Mr.. DE llasA sent word TO tho military
Onicer that he had better get his men, wagons aud
animals on the opposite side OF the creek aud cat OF
the way, he feared there was going TO DO a
might run - Tho herdeI8 were Instructed 10 keep
tnelr horses saddled aud be ready 10 mOuut at a
ment' notice. The cattle were very uneasy, getting
up lying Iowa again, and shifting about as II uu-
comfortable Al last about midnight there came
sharp nash of lightning followed by heavy peal of
thunder, aud In an instant the whole held was upon
their feet. "Mount aud whip out cried Dc Has,
and the herdeT, who was at the head Of the column,
drove oil few OF the leading steers Ia the direction
they were TO go. All the Others followed, aud the
herd was soon In full flight. The heTders made no
effort check control them further than to keep

/ The run lasted about two hours when a gorge was
being neaTeh, In which the cattle would crowd and
break their limbs. They were now quite tired, and
the herdeTs determined TO exert elr authority aud
/ stop the run. Tho head u the column bent ouI
the prairie and circled round aud round until the
cattle became tied up IN huge ban and could not

Anew statue Of cleopatra.


exhibition Of sculpture says!
Among the nue things, first aud greatest, there Is
aCleOpatra by Maslnl. have been told that he gave
Ave years to the modelling OF this figure. II he had
given hfteen years, or Indeed the whole Of his life,
his tim0 would have been well spent. The idea Is
high and beautiful, and the execution Is well-nigh
faultless. The Egyptian queen her sonsuous, fasci
mating face shaded 10y griet and bent by anxious
thought reclines upon sphinx hown nom granite,
and at her feet there Is u basket Of wild fruit from
this depths Of which an asp is slowly unfolding his
Egyptian art with the freedom OF the Greek. Cleo
patia IS naked TO her waist. The drapery which
ceas her legs is yet so transparent that 1t almost
Neals them and " at once SO rich, light ana so
perfect In Its folding that you yertaOy Inclined
to believe that has thrown garment OF real
her, until You feel Of 1t and con
WINGED that 1t Is marble. Ia painting according to
the prevailing modern notion II you can get therlght
effect 1t does not matter how you get IT. Hut In
sculpture there Is only method of arriving at tho
right effect and that Is by the srlCest attention to
details. Masini's detail is altogether praiseworthy
The dimples In the breast and elbows the yielding of
the flesh where there Is pressure upon II, where
her cheek rests upon her hand, aud where bracelet
clasps her arm, and the consequent fnllness of the
flesh ad Joining the bones In her hands aud feet; the
"hangn of the necklace around her throat the
dropping OF the skin above her eyelids-betray the
most careful study and are as excellent as anything
that have seen In tue antique. The attitude Is
graceful spontaneous and abundantly expressive Of
cast down with Its face Ia the dust, ambition de-
feated soul enyous of death but unable quite put
aside the love OF life, the tempting hope of tr
umphs, the eagerness for new pleasures the dreadful
uncertain, fear of the undiscovered country Into
which the asp has power TO procure her entrance.

We stood at the bars as tile sun went down
Belind the hills on 3 summer day
Her eyes were tender and big aud brown,
Her breath as sweet rs the new mowu hay.
Fm from the west the faint sunshine
Glanced sparkling on her golden halt
THOSE calm deep eyes were turned toward mine,
Aud look Of contontment rested there
I see her halhed In the sunlight flood,
see her standing peacefully nov;
Peacefully standing aud chewing her cud,
As rubbed her ears-that Jersey COW.

PompeD Still Yioidiug wealth.

NC" excavations have D"cn made at
iompcn, bringing to light some curious
thlngs. a house was recently unh earthed
on whose walls the pictures were as bright
as when first painted. The walls them
sciVes were clean and fresh. In this house
was found shrine in the form OF q little

foreigner residing III Naples to remark
tnat every now and then there are attain
able ocular demonstrations of the way In
which Hcrculancum and Pompcli were

drowned in floods Of lava is pretty much

IN two ways: First, by tho cJectmcnt from
