PLUCKY WESTERN BOY.
He Herds Cattle on the Cactus
Plains of New Mexico.
Only Twelve Years Old, But Has
Charge Of 800 UnruIy Steers

It isn't every boy who can ride a
bronchO over the cactus plains and herd
800 head of cattle. But this is what
Hope Patterson does almost every day
of the year. And more than that, he
can wriggle along rocky mountain
side like an Indian and pick an antelope
from a ledge with his rife.
Hope is only - years old. He lives
not far from the little mining town of
Gold Hill, in New Mexico. His mother
owns a ranch of 100 acres, with an adobe
house, where she and Hope and 4-year
old Jimmy make their home. 1t is a.
little one-story house, says the Chi
cago Record, and the only things grow
ing about It are thorny cactus plants
and chaparral. Hopes father has
been dead for some time He was shot
in his own dooryard by a Mexican, and
since that time much Of the care of the
ranch and the herd of 1000 head of cat
tie, which roam over miles and miles Of
country, has fallen upon Hope. The
young ranchman owns about 300 cattle
in the herd himself, the remainder be-
longing to his mother.
Even before Hope could walk stead
lily he was at home On a pOny's back,
and he has become 50 plucky a rider
that he is known in the country around
as ''Broncho Hope Often in the early
morning he viii mount his pony,
BlIy-he owns it himself-and ride up
the slopes Of Little Burro mountains
which wall in his home, and help in
the herding Of the cattle all day long
in the hot sunlight. A 5O-mile ride in
a single day is nothing at all to him.
In most of his work he has two cow
boys to help him, to say nothing OF his
dog Leo. who kiows almost as much
about heading off or corralling wild
young steers as any man.
Two months in the year there is
school at Gold Hill, and Hope attends,
for he expects some day to own a great
many cattle and he wants to be pre-
pared to use his wealth properly.
Hope is also fond of exploring the
ruins where the Aztecs once lived. and

There seems to be an erroneous idea
concerning the new santa t'e time
service. Both the Hampden and Elgin
Representatives came TO Topeka with
the idea that those movements Of
watches would suffer condemnation at
the hands of the inspectors, and that
only the Waltham movement, especial
Ivy recommended by General Inspector
Mont gomery, would be accepted In
stead Of this. all watches found to con-
form with the standard mentioned In
the circular OF General Superintend-
ent Nudge VIII be accepted, no matter
what the movement may be-
The circular states that the standard
watch must be a III jewel movement.
However. all watches i'm the possession
OF men prior TO June 4 Of lower jewel
which on inspection are found to run
within the required variation VIII be
accepted. All watches purchased after
June must be il jewel. but as all
watch companies manufacture that
movement the men may choose any
make they desire.
The Waltham watch is recommended
by Mr.. Montgomery from the fact that
ne has an agreement with the COM
pany to replace all watches which fail

similar agreement was made by Mr.
Dueber on behalf of the Hampden COM

bringing home wonderful pieces Of an
cient pottery and queer trinkets.
But it is as a hunter that Hope best
likes to be known. He has a rife all his
own, and often he goes up on the lava
covered mountain sides to shoot ante
1ope, or down on the plains where there
are rabbits and quail. His most excit-
ing adventure was with a rattlesnake.
Rattlesnal1es are fond of the hot sun,
and the rocks Of the Little Burros, and
one day Hopes brother Jimmy wan
dered away alone. OF course, he didn't
know anything about rattlesnakes, and
when he saw the notified body of a
huge fellow he was greatly pleased and
toddIed toward it. Presently there
came the sharp, warning rattle, and
that pleased him all the more. But
Hope heard it, too, and he knew WHAT
meant. Instantly he darted forward
to save his little brother. But he was
too far away, and the rattlesnake had
cOiled itself and was preparing to
strike. Hope paused only a moment.
Then he knelt and drew his rife to his
shoulder. He knew that a false aim
might be the death of the child. There
was a sharp bang" and the head Of
the snake shot up and then fell back and
its body uncoiled on the ground, shat
tered and torn And Jimmy's life was
saved.
Next to hunting, Hope is fond of GUS
tard pies, and if you should ever visit
Gold Hill perhaps Hopes mother would
give you a slice.
