WEAVER A "FALSE ALARM"
Belongs on the Hurricane Deck of n
Piano. Rather Than of Bronco.

That II Is not wise to make preten-
sions along certain lines unless one is
able to make good. is shown by a
story which comes from Alberta. 1t
is concerning Leo Weaver. the bucka-
roo musician, who was here for sew
eral months this spring and made
many friends through his affability
and musical talent.
When w. H. Babb shipped a train
load of horses to Alberta not long ago
Mr.. Weaver went with the band.
along with several other cow
punchers. on arriving at the Cana
dian destination the horses were un-
loaded from the train and held there
for several days because of rainy
weather. Meanwhile the different
bronco twisters tried their skill with
the horses. and Mr.. Weaver was in
duced to ride a certain animal.
According to the report the musi-
clan had no sooner reached the hur-
ricane deck of the bronco until he
was thrown through the air and
landed safely in the mud. a second
attempt was then made to ride the
horse. with the same immediate re-
suit.
After the episode those who wit
messed the exhibition declared that
Weaver was fine musician and a
good fellow, but that as a buckaroo
he was false alarm"

ordered will have to be secured in

does not now seem likoly. However,
the difficulty may DO overcome when
the time for operations arrives. AS yet

it will probably take several weeks
before they can be secured In the
meantime rains may come and a swell
in the river in ample time to meet
the needs of the situation here. Be
