The Bush-Bred Animals Are Hardy
and Swift and Difficult
to Tame.

An Australian colt, bred upon any
well-grassed run. owned by any capa-
bic breeder, is an animal ribbed up,
well bOned and barrelled, such as might
hold his own for line and symmetry
and gameness of eye in almost any
English meadow. Every drop of his
bright blood is English, or maybe there
is dash of finer fluid still-the
Arab strain. But your bush-bred two
year-old has yet to meet his master.
He knows nothing of the sheltered life
of his English kinsman. Born and
begotten under the open sky, he has
never stood beneath a meaner roof
He has found and tried his strength
in a free and untitled earth, and has
thriven and hardened upon what it
gave him. Once, and only once. the
hand of man has been laid upon him.
when in a rage of terror he was roped
and thrown. and felt the station brand

THE NEW TIME CARD.
The Charge of the Northern Pacific Train
Is Somewhat of a Surprise.

The Charge of the Northern Pacific Trains
Is Somewhat of a Surprise.
The long-talked-of change in the ar
rival Of the Northern Pacific passenger
trains will take place next Sunday,
Jan. 8, but the new time card is alto
gether different than the one expected.
The reports for the past few weeks
have led everyone to believe that the
only change would be in the time of
No. /, and that the train would reach
Billings at $3.50 or 3 O'Clock in the
afternoon. Both trains are affected.
No. 2 will arrive in Billings at 8 a.. M.
instead of $3.50 as at present, while No.
1 will reach Billings hour and a
half later, or s o'clock in the evening.
No change will be made in the time of
the Red Lodge or Gebo trains.
The Burlington railroad announces
that OH Sunday the time of it's passen-
ger trains will be changed to CORES
pond with the Northern Pacific. No.
~ will leave Billings at $3.50 a. M,
instead of 9:15, and No. Al will arrive
at 7:1O p. M. instead Of 500.
