The wild horse of America, although
now native TO the soil, is descended
from the tribes of wild horses that still
rove the plains of Central Asia.
When the d scoverers of this continent
first landed. there were no horses any
where in either North or South Ameri-
ca. Centuries before. the horse had
been introduced into European coun-
tres from Asia. and had become COM
mon all over the continent. When Co.
.umbus arr we'd here on his second voy-
age, in 1893. he was accompanied by
one Cal sc, de Vaca. who brought with
him number of horses, which were
landed in Florida.
Cortez took horses with him to assist
in the conquest Of NIX co. as did Pi-
zarro in his conquest of Peru. The ma
lives were greatly affrigh. Ell when they
oeheid these strange ANIMALS. At first
they supposed that the man and the
horse were one complete creature.
something like the cen.aur of which we
read in ancient fable. And when they
saw the rider dismount and disengage
himself from his stced, their amazement
knew no bounds.
In time. the savagcs learned that the
horse was an animal that had been
subdued by man, and that it was sep
ara,e crcaturc; but they long dreaded
the horse OF the Spaniards as . beast
of prey. And when the horses escaped
from their masters. and made their
way into the freedom Of the forest. as
they did after space. the natives
avoided them rs something to be shun-
ned. The qua,reiing Spaniards neg
ected their steeds, which soon found
homes on the pains Of NJ xicn. South
America. and the unexplored interior
Of North America. From these escap.
cd animals have sprung tho wild horses
of America. Tho mustang. ~ tbs na-
iiv. horse Of the North American conti-
