me, one of the natives built a fire of
dried branches of the Mamane, and
presently the coffee pot sung over the
Goals, and an old native with a patriar-
against the wild places while he pulled
pill grass and showed us how to make
beds of it and to attend to the wants
of the horses in a dry camp. He went,
presently, and gathered an armful of
the youngest of the grass to feed to his
own horse, belly deep like the others
in n wealth of the stuff. We were
camped in a plain of it--a cup shaped
depression in the overgrown lava flow.

TOO MUCH SENSE.


Why, III gamble that my red roam
can climb right up the side of Central
Union church, stop for breath on the
pinnacle of the steeple and then calmly
walk down on the other side-and
never turn hair. Horses bred to the
lava must do that kind of thing. If
they did not, they could not live there.
And that reminds me: We were
working across this, in single file, and
every step was agony to the riders and
matter for growing wisdom in doing
new stunts to the horses. just at the
most critical time, when Rawhide Ben s
horse had leaped crevice, and the
Secretary's horse was posing for the
same leap, and Jimmie was right ahead
OF me, seemingly standing on his head,
and l did not exactly know how held
up, the Postmaster, whose horse was
perched upon the top of rocking
stone somewhere behind me, asked,
with grave curiosity:
Do wild horses ever come in hereP"

berry Jim, from his place in the rear
OF the procession. "IIuhl Wild horses
got too damn much sense!"
After that, We got out of there. ]

RIDING OVER THE PLAIN.

iht iudN, LUZ the HTsl lew HiHes, lay
along the plain that is the shoulder of
the three mountains of Mauna Kea,
Mauna Loa and Hualalai, a dusty plain
that is still rich in feed, and whose ex-
istence the man who has not ridden
over it would scarce suspect. Here the
Humuula ranch people have planted
the mesquite and alfleria grasses of
California, and have found that these
surpass the native grasses in nutri-
tive qualities and supplant them in
vigor. Here, also, as on the mountain
the Mamane tree is spreading. And
there are wild cattle and sheep and
hogs and horses here, although all are
hunted hard, and millions upon millions
of California quail.
"They make their nests in the
lava" explains Rawhide Ben, when
asked why the mongoose does not eat
the eggs of these groundnesters.
Presently, We ride out of the dust,
and begin to thread plain strewn
with lava boulders. 1t is an old flow,
the guide explains Let it be said

action almost constantly thru the en-
man Is march to the sea.
