TN their selection of a bronze to pre-
sent to Colonel Roosevelt the Rough
Riders could certainly have made
i no better nor more appropriate
choice than they have made in TAX
ing Frederic Remington's Bronco
Buster" This spirited figure Of
cowboy battling with one Of the wild
little horses of the plains is one of the
few pieces of sculpture at which Mr..
Remington has tried his hand. 1t is
finely modelled and has all the charac-
ter and dash which have long been dis
tinguishing features of the artists
drawings of Western life. The bronze
was executed by Tiffany & Co., and
when exhibited by them in London two
years ago it received high praise there.
1t stands about two feet high. and Is
thus of dimensions which make 1t suit
able for the decoration of any room.
The bronco buster" who is engaged
in one of the most perilous feats of
his professionalism of maintaining his
seat upon rearing horse and endeav-
oring to make the "bronc' come
down in front again. as he would say
has always been a daring and pic
turesque figure on Western cattle
ranges. His business is horse break
ing, and, his ability in this direction
being recognized. he travels about
from ranch to ranch busting" horses
at so much head-usually IS or there
abouts A horse is said to be busted
when he is broken just so far as to be
ridable by one of the expert cow
punchers" For any less skilled horse
man the animal would be as impossi-
BILE a mount as If his back had never
been touched by human being. That
is to say, he will probably still buck
stiff Legged, at times, and his temper Is
not warranted kind, but he is a degree
removed from the absolutely wild horse
of the prairie.
In Mr. Remingtons bronze the wick
ed, frenzied expression of the bronco's
eyes, and his tense, straining muscles
give evidence Of the struggle he is
making for his liberty. Rearing, with
his head plunged downward between
his forelegs, he is trying the device
which is perhaps most often success
full in unseating his rider. But the
buster" clings doggedly to his great
Cow saddle" with it's high pommel
and cantle. and thus far all the ami
malls efforts have been vain. With
his left hand grasping firmly both the
horses name and the rope of the queer,
bitless halter known as the "hacka-
more" the cowboy uses his right arm
to WELD his rawhide Quirt vigorously.
This whip, with it's short handle and
lash of two or three thongs. is an eff
fective weapon, and the bronco squealS
and snorts as 1t descends upon his flesh.
The busters" expression is one of de-
termination and watchfulness He Is
alert to observe whether the bronco Is
{ coming down properly or is going TO
fall over backward for in the latter
event he must be ready to spring off
instantly, lest he be caught beneath the
animal.
