WILD HORSES OF THE WEST

TN the writings of American novelists, an animal
which frequently figures is the called wild
horse. The authors often describe him as
feeter than the steed of Arabia dangerous in his
ferceness and have given accounts of his pursuit
which have added to the sensation of the tale. In
fact the existence of the wild horse the ordinary
sense of the term is doubted by many people, even
some living west of the Mississippi River.
There is no doubt. however, that herds of wild
horses live in some of the unnhabited valleys and
occasionally Craze along stretches of the prairie
of the Southwest which is still separated from CIV
lhZatlon. They have been at times by hunters
mining prospectors, and occasionally have ven
tured in the vicinity of some outlying ranch and
thus come within sight of the COW boys. Nevada
contains what is believed to be the largest herd
which apparently has foraging and breeding
ground within its boundaries. The nearest human
habitation is in the little hamlet of Battle Noun
tain, on the route of the Southern Pacific Railway.
Like Stalking Caribou
HERE the hunter of the wild horse must leave
- civilization and cross summit and valley over
region which is deserted by the sheep herder.
1t requires about two days to traverse the thirty
miles to the breeding grounds such is the difficulty
OF the way, but alter reaching the vicinity of the
animals they must be stalked as carefully as a
caribou for their scent is keen, and they are
quick to detect the presence of AS rule they
can be seen only at distance.
The wild horses of Nevada owe their origin to a
band OF domestic horses which were turned loose
on the hills and plains back of Sheep Creek Noun
talns over thirty years ago. There they have since
remained, breeding and running at WILL and until
the last two years or so no attempt has been made
to capture them except in individual instances
For more than quarter of century they have
existed in a country as wild as when the continent
was discovered, full of deep cafons and maze like
runwayS. The country which these horses
roam is ideal for their freedom isolation and con-
cealment. The Sheep Creek Mountains COM

running them down with fresh animals. The scheme
was only partly successful owing to the fact of his
not being able to get enough dummies in the field.
The difficulty of the chase enhanced by the
lookout for danger. The country is nearly all roll
ing, and the first sight of band is usually of
two lookouts the crest of knoll plainly on the
alert, though miles away. On attempting to move
nearer the entire band appear, and after moments
gaze at the intruders off trot the leader
in the rear. This trot is deceptive. 1t easy
to overcome but the pursuer soon finds that it can
be kept up all day and all night if necessary.
Valiant Protectors
WHEN the band is met unexpectedly the most ex-
w citing incidents often At close quarters
the mustangs break into run, and the is to

one will strain every nerve, the stallion takes the
lead and makes every effort to pilot his family

attempt to cut out of the mares, and the stallion
will turn instantly and with mouth open, teeth
cleaning, and flying, rush at the disturber of
his family unity with fury. wild stallion is

paratvely short range rising from the valley of the
Humboldt River. In the region noted it is estimated
that there two thousand wild horses; but
their method of existence and travel is in small
bands, numbering from half dozen to twenty
Each band has stallion its leader and there
is practically never more than one stallion to

strength he is either driven out of the old band
voluntarily leaves to form band of his own.
The leader is in every the master of the
band. The members of his family are such by his
will, and acquisitions made only with his con-
sent. The stock on the range is frequently added
to by strays from distant ranches or from some
vaquero camp. This has been particularly true
within the last two years, when effort has been
made to capture the wild bands, and a COW boy
camp has been maintained in the hills for much of
among the members of the bands, all apparently
wild as the leader
Exciting and Difficult Work
CATCHING these wild horses is, as may be we'll

engaged in it, it is called running" wild
horses and that is what it amounts to- The va

by speed and endurance, and force them into

round up this wild stock and turn it to profit.
The principal thing necessary is to keep the horses
moving, giving them no chance to rest, and finally
rounding them up ip exhausted state. The sight
of on horseback is frequently enough to keep
the wild band going the entire day. Knowing this
trait, Blossom tried the device of mounting images
of men upon captured horses and turning them
loose counting upon frightening and exhausting
