Effect of Discipline al Sea.

Boston Herald.
y correspondent sends to US the fol-
lowing account of a shipwreck, apropos
of the recent sinking of La Bourgogne.
when quite child, she was q passen-
ger on u steamer of the Hamburg Am
erican line. from New York to Europe,
which in q dense fog struck on ledge
near Cape Race, Newfoundland. 1t was
5 O'Clock in the morning when the
steamer struck, and her 300 passengers
were asleep They were instantly
aroused and told to dress as quickly as
they could. When the first cabin pas
sengers came from their state rooms
they found that the stewards had hot
coffee on the dining saloon tables, this
at one and the same time to allay their
fears and to give their physical sys-
TENS the immediate sustenance they
required. They were then sent on
deck. and were quickly assigned to
the different boats, which were lowered
as rapidly. but as orderly, as possible,
the ships officers throwing down
blankets taken from the cabins into
the boats after they were launched, as
a means of giving protection to some
of the younger children, who lad been
hurried out with hardly any clothing
upon them. From the time that the
ship struck to the time that she sank
in the ocean was less than half an hour,
yet when she sank everyone had left
her, and although there was the dis
comfort of staying in the crowded
open boats for nearly "A hours before
landing not one life was lost out of the
nearly 300 passengers and
| respondents opinion, was due to the
discipline that prevailed. the entire
| GOODNESS of the ships officers, who
gave their orders as to what should be
done without even raising their voices.
The Storage passengers, she says. were
much excited and alarmed, but even
these were quieted and kept under
| complete control by the obvious cool
| ness and confidence of the ships Of
ficers, who seemed to know precisely
what to do as we'll as how to do it. Ac
cording to the more recent report, La
BOurgogne was af1oat for forty minutes
after the collision; that is, quite ten
minutes longer than the time during
which the vessel was aflost during our
correspondents experience.

with again until finally the animal

with again until finally the anima
wanted will get accustomed to the ap-
preaching cowboy, and before he
knows IL, has n halter around his neck
for the fret time. IL Is surprising how
quickly they tame after that, unles:
they are naturally of vicious DISPOSE
ton.
Some animals will not allow them
selves to be captured easily as this, and
then nothing remains but q rope"
them. Making the moose and coiling
his rope, the cowboy waits until the
herd rushes by. and then he throws the
loops around the head of the one he
wants. Then things are lively for q
few minutes while a tug-of-war ensues,
The frightened horses will struggle u
get away, as does q trout from n hook,
and the cowboy is hauled and Slated
around right merrily. 1t looks as il
the captor has been captured, but as
the tightening moose stop his wind, the
horse comes TO n halt, while the man
slowly hauls himself up until he can
slip the halter over the head of his
catch, when the rope Is removed.
The second stage of the inspection
consists of the riding of the horses
that have p ,ssed. This is another job
for the cowboys, and Is full of excite
ment for them aud thu spectators.
First the horse is walked up and down
before the inspect ors, next he Is sent
down to the end OF q long lane and rid
den at q trot, and finally he is sent
along on dead gallop, the rider
lashing him numerically on both sides
with his cutting quirt. As be comes
laundering along, an assistant on the
side yells ana shakes coil of rope in
his face. Stung with the whip, un-
rouudings, and frightened by the yells,
the animal may dash madly ahead, or
try to run into the fence and scrape
his strange burden of, buck, rear,
kick and do other dangerous things.
IL takes good horseman to stay on
and control the animal, but these cow
boys are perfect Centaurs The wild az
tions of the horse are viewed by the 10
spectors who do not mind anything but
the blckiug or kicking, which is OBJ
lection able. aud the condition of the
animals wind. They don't expect
women's saddle horses broken to sill
gsits and gingerbread.
There was one pathetic incident |
noticed one day while l was watching
the work of inspection. An elderly
and poorly dressed woman, might have
been q widow in straitened circumstan-
ces, sat on a bale OF hay in the stable
among the flies and horses. 1 wonder
ed what she could be doing in such a
place, when shortly q stable boy led mp
Q gentle-eye horse to her and said:
"They won't take him, marin" The
woman jumped up with tears in her
eyes, but with Joy in her words, and
SELLING the horse around the neck,
kissed him and said; $50 they don't
want my poor Billy; I'm so glad!'
Whether the woman thought

On the Painted Desert.

You swing across the plateau and
slide and clambor down again. But
with the descent OF few hundred feet
you are in another world. The vision
no longer revels in those upland spaces
which raise the spirit into exultant
mastery. 1t may be a desperate laby-
rinth of gorges along which now you
fare, whose grotesque and threatening
walls crowd in upon the way in stolid
brutal insistence. 1t may be broad
valley with dry, level, grassy bott )m,
and bordered by miles of majestic
cliff stretching away in broad psneled
and buttressed sweeps. and beset with
alcoves here and there, whose blissful
shadows lure you from the way. But
there is more than shade in these cool
recesses. for it is only when you get
we'll back in shadow, SO that the eyes
are released from the glare OF the
sun, that you realize the full
richness and beauty of the great
masses of simple color which dom1n ate
these wastes. Perhaps ahead of you
the valley narrows. the buttre ssed
cliffs forming a gigantic colonnade
down which you ride, while great rock
pillars and colossal obelisks tower here
and there above the walls, cleaning in
gray or buff or pink or red against the
rich blue background of the sky. Or
the valley may open out upon sweep
of sandy plain, its buff and yellow
stretches beset with billowy masses of
the sage, now gray, now lilac-tinted
through the shimmering air,
with an elusive purple among the shad-
ows of its leaves, which, as you rustic
by them, fling q faint aroma on the
air. You look across this tremulous
stretch of lilac and purple and gold.
like a brilliant restless sea struck
motionless, with its waves abreak, to
the far horizon upon which rise miles
of gorgeous buttes-white, yellow,
purple, orange, and brown-all alive
with the intense shadows which come
and go upon their rugged faces.
Now and then the hot quivering air
plays strange tricks with the vision as
you ride over the sandy reaches of
the bottoms. The cliffss hoot up in
wavering pinnacles, rock columns rise

A Brave Volunteer.
Few Orleans Picayune.

Few Orleans Picayune.
1t has come to the experience of all
to change ones mind. A boy has start
ed to q dentists Office with a raging
toothache, and one look at the big
tooth hung out for q sign, with roots
shoulders, has driven away all the
pain. Men very often change their
minds, and women have been known to
do such things. The Chicago Post
tells of Chicago man who once had q
mind to be soldier: He looked very
determined when he entered the re-
cruiting office and walked up to the Off
Ger Ia charge. The boys down our
way" he said, told me L was afraid
to enlist. They've JUS: been daring me
ever since this war broke out, so some
thing had to be DONE" "And that's
why you're here?" suggested the re-
cruitipg officer In q tone of inquiry
eyes, sir; that's why L am here, "
answered the stranger. There can't
anybody take a whack at my patrio-
tism and my courage and get away
with the bluff. I'm here to git in line
to do up the Spanish, and 1 don't want
ed up q pen and prepared to write. "If
you're sure you want to enlist, "he said.
''why---" "Sure." broke in the strspg-
err. "Sure. Well, you Just bet I'll
prove those fellows liars or know the
reason why. 1 don't think much of
war as general proposition, but there
can't be anybody stands around and
dare me more'n six or eight times be-
fore something happ ms. Mebbe L
might have stood what the boys had to
say, but when my wife told me 1 was
afraid to fight it was just leetle too
much. All I'm afraid of is that you
won't have me-" "Oh, we'll take you
fast enough" returned the recruiting
officer. "Just give me your name and
-" ''Mebbe | ought to tell you before
you go too far, interrupted the vail
ant youth again, "that L am troubled
with hammer toes---two of 'em, one on
each FOOT. THAT doesn t
make any difference" replied the re-
cruiting officer. "Why-why, 1 thought
hammer toes interfered with q mans
ability to march," suggested the appli-
cant. SIT does" admitted the recruit
ing officer, but Well put you in the
cavslry." The applicant gave a deep
sigh. and suggested that that would
suit him first rate, but that he couldn't
ride very we'll. ''Never mind" an
swered the recruiting officer. you
can soon learn. Now. if you will jus,
give me your name, I'll put it down

she was doing her duty
to her country by offering the
horse, or whether necessity had driven
her to try and sell him, did not know,
of course, but the incident was of an
affecting character.
The third and last degree consists of
placing Uncle Sans initials on the left
fore shoulder OF the horse with a red
hot branding iron. This is heated In
little portable blacksmith's furnace,
while the horse is being brought out
olindfolded. In order that the animal
may not see the hot iron and shy at the
critical moment, broad leather strap
is put over his head and across the left
eye. AS long as he can see with one
eve the horse will stand still, otherwise
not. Quickly the operators seizes the
branding iron, and holding 1t straight,
Jams il against the horses hide firmly.
Upon feeling the sharp sting most

Government, with the letters U. S.
fully two and one-half inches square
indicating the fact. The burn is not
severe, but the hot iron kills the hair
cells, and tie hair does not grow again.
Captain Varnum, who conducts the
purchasing, is one of the distinguished
officers of the cavalry service OF the
United States. Since he was granted
his commission, twenty-siX years ago.
in the famous 7th cavalry, he has seen
active service in abundance on the
frontier, aided in opening up the Dako-
tas and Montana ID settlement, and
was in series of campaigns against
the Sioux. Cheyenne and Nez Perce
Indians when it was unsafe tor white
settlers in West and Northwest. Cap
tain Varnum wears the Compression al
medal OF honor for bravery at the
battle of White Clay Creek, December
30 1890, the day following the engage
ment at Pine Ridge, Northern Neb-
rssks, where the Cheyennes we're an
initiated.
In 1873 Captain Vsrnum was with
General Stsnley's expedition on the
Yellowstone, making the survey for
the Northern Pacific Railroad. The
Sioux strongly objected to the pres
ence Of sthe Surveying party. and the
eth Cavalry fought and defeated them
in two battles at the mouths of the
Tongue and Big Horn rivers.
The succeeding year Captain Vsrnum
engaged in the exploration of the
Back Hills when the excitement con-
sequept to the discovery OF gold there
was at its highest. Two years later

HORSES FOR THE ARMY.
How They Are Selected.

Denvers Corresp Indence Boston, Herald,
Like the soldiers. horses have to be
punched, prodded and put through a
course OF sprouts before being accepted
as fit to fight for uncle Sam. What is
worse, they have to be branded with o
redhot iron, not to prevent them from
deserving but from being stolen and
sold back to the government.
When undergoing inspection, the
horse 10 first measured with a wooden
standard set q certain height, the bar
being placed across that point of the
animals shoulder where the neck joins
the back, the up right reaching point
alongside his hoof. Having passed the
test, the animal undergoes q critical
looking over by both Captain Varnum
and DIR. Holcomb IS to feet, legs and
various portions OF his anatomy. L no
ticed that one place came In for par
ticular attention, and that was between
the shoulder-blade and the neck. III
that was round and full, nothing WAS
said, but IL sunken or followed in, the
horse was rejected at once without
further consideration. The teeth were
examined for age, and, of course, the
eyes, while the doctor carfully scrutin-
lied the hind quarters. To one not
accustomed to handling horses, it Ger
tainly seemed risky on the part OF the
veterinary to step behind strange
horse and pull his tail while he survey
ed to see II his legs were mates
Why some of the wild ones didn't kick
him will always be a mystery to me.
After that the horse is run up and
down the Enclosure attached to a halter
to show that ne is not lame. Then be
Is turned loose in q pen to await the
second stage OF Inspection.
It was both interesting.snd amusing
to watch the horse handlers capture
the skittish ones in the herd. First
the animal wanted would be cautiously
approached and made to dodge until
peuned in a corner away from the rest
With n halter in one hand, and the
other outAtret shed, the cowboy would
slowly edge up, the horse watching
him with pricked ears and glaring eye
balls. a sudden spring, and the wild
thing is away ID the other end OF the
corral, forcing himself into the pack in
in stampedes around the Enclosure,
while the cowboys seek safety on top OF
the fences. The horses are all strspg e
to them, and there may be biters and
XII kers in the lot. When the horses
quiet down, the process is gone through
