A Texan Sheep IIerder's Life.

We will suppose, by way of ~illustra-
ZION, that u practical herder has been en-
gagged to run u flock, and in the early
morning, as the first gray streaks of
dawn appear In the eastern sky, he sallics
forth to take charge of his woolly flock,
who are just beginning to awake and
leave their bedding place. If he is a
Mexican he looks extremely picturesque
in his bright blue jacket, with it's double
row of silver buttons, which, by the way,
are not for use, but solely for ornament.
tor a Mexican never buttons his Jacket,
else he would hide his gaudy calico shirt.
On his neither limbs are lcggings of leath-
er or buckskin to protect his legs from
the sharp thorns through which he will
be forced to march,. These are kept in
place by a crimson, orang or blue sash,
over which is bucklcd a broad sash full
OF cartridges. On his head is the i~ncvita-
bic sombrcro, with its ornamentation of
gold and silver lace. If he is a sensible
man, his scrapc will be tied over one
shoulder and under the opposite arm and
he Will carry a Winchester rifle and a
sharp butcher knife. AS the sheep begin
TO move OFT he saunters slowly along be-
ilnd them, keeping a sharp lookout for
stragglcrs. Sheep do not travel fast, but
they keep moving. At about meridian
they will begin to feed back toward tho
bedding-place. There the hcrdcr will
cat his humble dinner of t~ortillas and
Chill, washed down by a draught of wa
ter, Is he is fortunate enough to be in
the vicinity of a spring or watcr-hole.
About shutdown tho sheep will reach
their camp and begin to select beds for
the night. The hcrder has a rude shelter
near by. He builds himself a fire and
cooks his tortillas. Possibly he may have
Killed a quail or a jack rabbit during the
day. If so, he makes a savory soup.
Then he smokes his cigaro and walks
around the flock to see that none arc
missing. If all is we'll he returns to his
camp, and, rolling himself in his serape,
lies down. He may have a good nights
sleep and he may not. A careful herder
Will be aroused if n single sheep moves
and will Immediately rise up to see what
is the matter. If a bear or cougar or IT,
ger-cat is lurking about he will hunt for
the varmint and either kill him or fright
en- him away. Above all things he must
guard against a stampede, for if the TIM
id sheep once get started there is no stop
ping them-thc herd would become scat
tered, many would be lost and the herder
would be charged up with the missing
sheep. Long before daylight he is up,
and by the time the sheep begin to move
nc has cooked and eaten his breakfast
and is ready to take up the march again.
Imagine what a picnic a mar must have
who performs this dreary routine three
hundred and sixty-fvc days in the year!
Sheep herding admits Of no holidays and
1t IS all the same to the herder whether
1t be Christmas or Fourth of July.-EAn-
adelphia Times.

TRYING TO QUAL1FY.-A good story about
that eternal duel question in France comes
from Bordeaux. Three years ago young
naval officer, having quarreled with corn
merchant of the town in club, sent him
his seconds on the following day. "Gentle-
men" said the corn merchant. II am quite
willing to fight duel with the lieutenant,
but do not think that our risks are equal.
he Is bachelor, and have three children.
When he has three children shall be at
his disposal" Lieut.. Carjuzac was obsti-
nate. A barber of the neig ighborhood had a
pretty daughter. He Immediately courted
her, obtained her parents consent, and mar.
ried her in October. 1882. Ten month later
he was presented with boy, and in 1884
the young officer was blessed with daugh-
ter. At last, to his great Joy, third child
was born three months ago. he lost no
time. Taking his first two children in his
arms, and ordering the nurse to follow him
with the baby, he called on the corn mer-
chant. swell" said he to him in triumph.
ant tone, "we can fight now. l have three
children" "Ah!' retorted his antagonist,
'but have five now."-Pittsburg Dispatch.
