p VERY LIVELY CHASE
Cow Boys who FIND a Great Deal
of Sport in Running Sheep.

ThlI Rocky Mountain sheep is a
game bird that is becoming very rare
in Arizona and if the territory had
many as ambitious cowboys as ]. NJ.
Hardee, C. E. Karls and William Rus
sell he would soon be. placed on tbs re-
tired list and referred to only in song
and story, mostly story
The gentlemen referred to were {
few days ago hunting cattle IL tie
Buckhorn mountains net far from
Castle Creek, when they had little
experience that would thrill the aver
age sportsman and stir up the blood
OF old Pathfinder himself
Mr.. Hardee had ridden to the TOP OF
the range. while Messrs. Karls and
Russell had gene around the point of
the mountain. Just as he arrived at
the summit Hardee saw two big. fat
mountain sheep with their graceful
horns curving back ever their heads.
He immediately forgot all about cattle
and gave chase. The sheep started
around the mountain, but their pur-
suer cut them off and headed them to-
ward the foot of the hill Mr.. Hardee
says he never knew before just how
fast a man could ride down hill with
iCul breaking his neck. His object was
to lasso the sheep. When he neared
the bottom CT the mountain he s3w
his companies who had a calf lassoed.
He yelled to them to never mind the
calf, the hills were full of them, but to
lend their assistance in capturing the
nucleus CT a menageIie which he had
found running loose His horse was
nearly winded but he still kept in
sight of the sheep. Russell came to
his assistance, and as his horse was
fresh he soon rOEad enc Of the sheep
and brought hirz TO standstill The
ether tCok up the gulch like an autom-
obile. Rardee's horse was consider
ably tagged, but his rider had no idea
Of giving up the chase. He let his
prize COW pony amble along about
three minutes while he was concen-
trating his second wind and getting up
steam fer the next heat. Finally tina
sheep began to fag out and Mr. Hardea
spurted for a few hundred yards till he
had placed a rope over sheep No. ?.
Neither of the three men had ever
seen a, mountain sheep before, at least
not outside Of circus, and they natu-
rally felt proud of their capture. When
they brought their prizes into camp
they felt more proud On being told
by an cid Californian, who had killed
lots Of them, that the two specimens
were the largest he had even seen.

a TOLEDO BLADE
L, H. Chalmers Has Relic of The
ChIVslrY of Spain.

Attorney L. H. Chalmers yesterday
reclaived a sword blade found not long
ago in an old mine in the Ar1zpe dis
trict in northern Sonora. The blade is
a, little more than three fest long, a
circumstance in itself proving its an
tiquity, fer mere than a hundred years
ago the long blade which had succeed
ed the short Greek and Roman blades
was shortened to abiout two and one
half feet, without changing the gen
eral style adopted in the middle ages
This one is without doubt genuine
Toledo blade Beneath the rust Of at
least mere than one century can be
seem the inscription E'Fabrica de
Toledo If it bore a date it has been
obliterated. The blade lacks the
smoothness and polish of those Of the

least widely known, and, in some parts
of the country, extensively some
thirty-odd years namely, the
pork sandwich
This sandwich was peculiar to the
army. When the dinner call sounded
you got your tin cup and walked up
the company street to where the cooks
fire was and where the camp kettles
hung from a pole supported at the ends
by crOached sticks driven in the
ground. Pork, hard bread, and coffee
Tor dinner, and if there was plenty of
hard bread you helped yourself from
an open box; if there wasn't plenty,
then the cook, or somebody helping
him, dealt it out as the men came up,
so many crackers to a man. Then the
cook gave you your slice ST pork, you
held out your cracker, and he laid it
on the top one Then you got your
coffee and started fer tyour tent, walk
ing down this company street, juggling
the pork On tsp of the crackers in one
hand, and the old pint cup filed with
coffee, in the other. You did it with
out dropping the one or splitting a drop
OF the ether; there was skill born of
long practice.
'fScrumptious dinner? We'll. like a
coed many either things, that depended
a heap on circumstances. If we hadn't

HOW TO LEARN SPANISH.
By G. F. McKibben, Professor Modern
Languages, DenisCn University.

How to Learn Spanish at Home:
This usually means also without a
teacher and often without books as
well. This course of study is intended
especially for those who labor under
one or both Of these disadvantag es, but
who nevertheless desire to make a be-
ginning at the pleasant task OF learn
ing the language of cur naighbOrs.
In Offering this course for home
study of the lessons, the writer,
teacher himself, does net belit,le the
value Of direct contact with the teach
er, nor does he underestimate the help
to be get from books already published
Ha proposes to help the learner to
familiarity with the chief facts of in
feotion and concord. and with several
hundred Of the most important words
in actual use today
1t is not claimed that this acquisition
is more than a beginning. It will not
render a teacher unnecessary, but will
rather enable one to get the greatest
profit from an instructors services at
the least expense in time and money.
This course will not render grammar
and dictionary needless, but will eman-
cipate one from much of thazkrudgery
often associated with theI in the

present day, for even the marks of the
hammer cam still be seen on it, but
what it lacked in smoothness was no
doubt made up in temper The most
famous sword blades OF the middle
ages were those made at Damascus.
probably Of East Indian wOctz on the
shores of the Mediterranean. Next to
the Damascus blade was the Toledo
product CT the same psriod, and next
was the Milan blade.
1t may not be generally known, but
sword blades are still manufactured at
Toledo, and for the benefit of those
who think generally that all glory is
in the past and that the tempering of
steel is becoming a lost art, as good
blades are now made in the royal fac
tory at Toledo as ever. The process OF
manufacture is as follows: The best
quality of cast steel is ussd The bar
is hammered down by two men strik-
iEig it alternately If the blade is to
have concave sides or ether paculiari-
ties of form, these are obtain from
the dies from which it is swaged. The
factory at Toledo now employs about
20 or 80 men.
y The blade owned by Mr. Chalmers
was probably made before the seven
teenth century It was in that century
that the grinding process for polishing
was adopted This enc mas never been
ground for, as has already been men
tened, it yet bears the hammer marks.
The Damascus blade was polished
from the earliest times in some man
ner, SC as to remove the marks Of the
hammer. This enc was a sword In
tended only for the thrust.
