Skidmore, Aug. 25.-Mike Highland,
a brakeman on the Arkansas Pass road,
who came here from Yoakum to fill
vacancy left by Mr.. Whitaker taking
a lay-off, met with very painful &C"
cident, and narrow escape with his
life Monday night at Mathis, q sta
ton 16 miles south of here on the
Alice banrch of the Sap road. While
the train was pulling into the station.
passing the switch with cars loaded
with wood, which had been careless
ly left too far up on the switch, the
cars struck Highland, who was sitting
on top of side of car of his train go
ing to Alice, breaking his left leg in
two places below the knee joint. For.
tunately he had a firm hold on steps
preparatory to descending in the act
of performing his duty at station, this
firm hold being all that saved him
HUH DtlhS tolh uONh anu lhnhShSu
BY the aid of the train crew he was
taken down and Doctor Harris being
called attended his injuries. He re-
manned in Mathis over night being Ia
ken up by his train, brought here and
put on the passenger going to San An
tonic, where he will be taken care of
at the company's hospital. Walter
Newbury of Mathis, accompanied him.
The rest of the train crew consider
themselves very fortunate, having all
escaped without injury.

HERDING ON BICYCLES.
Cowboys Put Upon the Universal
Bike on a Western Ranch.
Experiment of r. ID. Mosely Is Anus
ing II Not Entirely Successful
What the Herders
Think of IL.

The cowboys on r. B. Mosely's ranch,
north of the north fork of the Chey-
enne river, are speeding after their
masters herds on bikes. The COW
ponies are eating their heads OFF in his
barnyard and will not again be called
into service until deep SHOWS render
the use of the wheels impossible.
Cattlemen have always considered
Mosely crank and dreamer of dreams.
but they conceded that he had outdone
himself when he resolved to furnish a
part of his herdsmen with bicycles in
stead of tough broncos so characters
tic of the "cow country" Mosely, to
do him justice, never said the expert
ment W ould prove success. He
simply wanted to see it tried. Wheels,
he confessed, could hardly be used in
winter nor in cutting time, branding,
roping and turning stampedes.
He read some time ago of their intro
duction into the army, remarked on
the testimony of the experts, who said
they could go anywhere that horse
could and promptly declared they would
do for work on the ranges if such state
ments were true.
His men say they have actually done
better work in some cases than with
horses. They are of opinion-and Nose
ly agrees with them-that msthe long
run horsefesh discounts them. Still,
the margin between the usefulness of
the bike and that of the bronco is not
wide one. The former certainly COW
ers more ground in day than the lat
ter. 1t is never vicious, never fright
ened and never strays from the spot
where the rider leaves it, no matter how
long maybe his absence.
One man who attempted to rope a
steer with the end of his lariat tied to
his handlebar and was incontinently
yanked into an adjoining county says
the experiment is a fat failure. An
other tried to turn stampeded herd
and met with poor success. A pony
would have stood its ground while the
rider got the frightened animals under
control. When the wheelman saw the
maddened herd bearing down on him,
however, and realized that he would be
directly under their hoofs if he tarried,
he turned tail without loss of time an6
scorched for safety. To the credit of
his wheel be it said that he quickly
distanced the cattle and escaped harm.
The wheels will probably be aban-
doned after this season-perhaps sooner
las their use has been somewhat ex-,
pensive, but Mosely says he has had
the full worth of his money in watch
ing the cattle punchers master their
machines and in listening to their COM
ments as they discussed the merits of
the experiment in which they were en-
gagged

SEARCH FOR THE SOUTH POLE.
Belgian Expedition Started from
Antwerp July 20.

Belgian Expedition Started from
Antwerp July 20.
The Belgica, a steam whaling vessel,
on July 25 sailed from Antwerp with a
scientific party on board to explore the
antarctic circle and endeavor to locate
the south pole. The expedition ex-
poets to reach Graham Land about the
middle of October, the beginning of the
fine austral season.
The greatest latitude which has ever
been reached in the antarctic zone is
rs degrees, reached by Sir James Ross.
If the north pole is hard to reach, the
difficulties surrounding the discovery
of the south pole are innumerable.
Phenomena occur there which no hui
man being has yet been able to account
for, and continents and mountains APP
pear and disappear in twinkling;
fogs and sunshine alternate in start
ling rapidity.
Sir James Ross surveyed the ant,
arctic continent for hundreds of miles
but unfortunately never found an open,
ing where he could land. This much is
known of the south pole: Nobody has
got nearer than 100 miles of it; noun
tains exist. some of which are active
volcanoes; no human being lives far
Their than j5Slegrecs and 70 quadrupet
beyond GO degrees. 1t is a land of mys
terry and wonder.
