THE WESTERN COWBOY.
,sAIthOugh Many Changes Have Taken
Place, He Is Still Strik-
ing Feature.

One hears deal of the passing of the
cowboy. The idea grows apace that
the cowboy is extinct. Because some
s parts of the west have settled up, be-
4 cause the "nesters" and the sheepmen,
8 the big rancher and the wire fence have
y come into these sections. some people
4 who write would have it appear that
the cowboy is a thing of the past.
AS matter of fact. says correspon-
y dent of the Butte Inter Mounts ain, the
q cowboy is very much alive and in the
. present. 1t is true he is not tough
and bad individual as he used to be
= pictured, but all of him was not tough
and bad even then, 10 more than it is
y to-day. 1t may be that greater changes
%bave come over the cowboy of Colorado,
b New Mexico, Arizona, and the south
e west than are realized here, but the
fact is that the Montana cowboy is
much the same happy-natured, pic
turesque and reckless individual he al
ways was. Perhaps the fact that this
is still an open range country has some
thing to do with the result. Though
the open range its passing it still is
, here and the chances are it will not
be gone entirely for several years to
come. The roundups are the same as
: in the old days in Texas and the south
! west, covering wild expanse of ter
4 ritory, all unfenced and belonging only
to Uncle Sam. True. the fencer, is
( here, but in small numbers in COMPARE
son with the number of cattlemen.
The Montana cowboy is not long on
fancy attire, broad sombrero, silver
spurs and the other trappings that
were the heart of the southwestern
cowboy. He is businesslike individ-
ual in his manner and his appearance,
but he likes a wild ride as well as any;
he can sit the toughest bronco that
ever was roPed, he knows his business
: down to the ground, and in his leisure
time he can make as much noise and
have as much fun as any man who ever
rode stock saddle.
He does not use his gun any more
than is absolutely necessary except in
play of a perfectly harmless nature.
For instance, the Montana cowboy has
fondness for dropping into little cow
towns and shooting loosely into the
air and whopping like a Piegan Indian
with incipient appendicitis. He does
this chiefly when an overland train is
at the station, and he rides peacefully
away, happy in the thought that he has
scared a 4rainload of pilgrims into be-
ieving they were in a bad mans coun-
try.

boys shooting, except sar tie genuine

me Best way to Teach history.

The idea of object teaching, the founda-
ton of the Froebel system of instruction,
has in recent years met with general accept
ance and adoption in almost every branch OF
education, high and low, with resultant ben
etits which are beyond question. Even suca
subjects as grammer and arithmetic are
now taught in this way so far as practicable,
and with marked advantage over the old
dry and abstract method. The practice OF
teaching history by making pilgrimages to
the very scenes where great historical events
have occurred is an application OF the same
principle and much more valuable in the
way of impressing the reality of history upon
the minds of the young than any amount of
mere textbook instruction could be. A re-
cent issue of the ''Four-Track Series" pub
lished by the New York Central manage
ment, gives a description of the historical
sites in the immediate vicinity of New York,
which will be of exceeding value for the
guidance of teachers and others who desire
to adopt this method of historical study
One OF the best ways to develop civic pride
and promote good citizenship lies in this
very direction, an increase of knowledge of
local history being accompanied with an in
crease of interest in matters of local govern
ment and higher concern for what affects
the welfare and good name of the commu-
nity.-From Leslie's Weekly.

tights that come now and then-hard-
ly more frequently than they occur in
any occupation in the east or west.
Now and then at roundup camp or
in cow town you will meet grizzled
old sinner who will lament the evil
ways into which the punching of COWS
has fallen. He will tell you that the
genuine cowboy is hard to find and
that the boys who are riding now are
"a lot of babyfaced cow-punchers
from the east who don't know what it
is TO be real cow hand" Don't YOU
believe him. He forgets that once upon
time he was baby-faced cow-punch-
er himself; that the native heat: of
most of the men who have sung to
their herds on stormy night is in the
effete east. Because all who appear in
the roundup are not so old or tough
ened or grizzled as himself he forgets
that he once was in their class. The
baby-faced cow-puncher is the begin
ming of the seasoned old cow hand.
and so he ever was, and so he ever will
be.
Quite as picturesque, quite as ardu-
Gus and quite as attractive to the adj
venture-loving youths of the land as
ever is the business of handling cattle
on the open ranges of Montana. There
is breadth and freedom about the
trade of riding the glorious, sunlit
Montana prairies that makes it lure
many man from more lucrative pur-
suits. Some day. when irriga ton shall
have transformed the ranges of Mon
tana into thousands of productive
farms the cowboy as we know him to-
day will pass, but for the present he is
here. Here's to himi

FOR ALI OF ME.

The king can keep his crown.
The plutocrat his gold.
For all of me:
I heave no sigh to own,
No fist I shape to hold
Their jewelry.
Let them, by their pale light,
Dwell sober-minded, just
That pleases me:
/ grudge no vested right,
No unearned pelf lust.
Enviously.
I claim the widest range
For peace. for thought, for breath;
For mine and me:
! force no undue change:
But live secure 'twixt death
And liberty.
The men Of discomfort.
Who patch the world outside.
Have naught in me:
I fain would sew the rent,
Within that it might bide
Eternally.
The king can keep his crown.
The plutocrat his gold.

For when mankind has grown
Into the Masters mold
They'll cease to be.
