w HERE MES RUN WILD

THERE is probably. only ont, place in this
country where ponies wild and are cap
tured every year by being driven into pens.
This place is a long narrow island, known as the
Core Banks, which lies off the coast of North
Carolina between Core Sound and the sea Here the
Banker ponies, that make such good little steeds
for small riders and drivers live and breed and run
wild until they are captured and brought to market
1t is three hundred wears since the ancestors
of the Banker ponies were left on the Core Banks
These ancestors were fine large horses. 1t is not
certainly known who first brought horses to this
coast, or when. But they came from Europe; for
there no horses this continent till the white
men came. The island inhabited then;
and besides the hfe-saving men at Cape Lookout,
few persons live it to this dav.
The horses had to shift for themselves. They
had only the marsh grass to eat, and they had no
shelter at all; So gradually they became smaller,
under these bad conditions. They grew long shaggy
coats OF hair to protect them from the cold and
and their hoofs became larger than is usual with
horses, because of their wading through the sand
and marshy places. All the surface water on the
island IS salt bracsh; but the horses have learned
to paw down below the surface of the sand until
they reach the fresh water below. They literally
dig little wells, from which drink and while thev
have lost size they have become strong and hardy,

able to endure cold, and thrive under conditions
where large well-bred horses could hardly live.
The ponies run wild with no care save such as
they take of themselves, and up to a few years ago
a Banker pony belonged 70 whoever caught II. Now

various owners, who round them up once a year TO
brand the colts and select ponies for the market
These round-ups are called pony pennings. N
one OF the narroweSt parts of the island a strong
fence is built clear across from sound TO ocean
This fence has gap in IL through which the ponies
are driven into stout pen. y line of men moves
forward across the island, driving the ponies toward
the fence and the entrance 70 the pen.

The p1ainsman, used to the saddle,
found walking difficult, with his high
heeled boots and cumbersome spurs.
He was tired from the cramped posi-
ton the child had occasioned during
the long afternoon. He had had little
to eat; the hills were long, also steep.
He longed for a drink of whisky-he
had a pint bottle in his pOcket-but
he dared not raise it to his lips for the
single swallow he craved. The dark
eyes would see, and the big, wonder
ing blue ones. He could only set his
teeth and urge the pony, tagging under
the burden, on toward Queens. And
so the miles dragged past, slowly,
seven OF them.
1t wa5 late when the faint gleam of
half dozen lights came into view. 1t
was Queens, crouching half sullen,
half afraid mile off, covering under
cover of the hills which fringed 1t.
Queens was asleep as they passed
slowly down the tiny segment OF the
great trail dubbed Main-st. by the
proprietor of the Plainsman's EX-
change Queens was silent save for
the heavy notes of the song of
drunken cow-puncher coming in halt
ing tipsv measure from the direction
of the saloon.
1t was a curious party, had anyone
seen, with CrumptOn limping in his
high-heeled boots, and the pony,
strangely burdened, following with the
docile, worn-out weariness of a dog.
At length the girl spoke. You haven't
told me of your ranch" she ven
tured.
Il guess you've heard of White

about the walk
That's all right, said Crumpton

We're staying here with the Lud-

you take Suey, please: My ankle is
worse, In afraid. You will have to
help me down"
The horseman helped her, trembling
with strange emotion.

was unanimously agreed that we ad-
iourn one hour for dinner.
After partaking of a magnificent
dinner which was prepared by our
Edisto sisters, we again repaired to
the church, and after a song by the
choir, the first topic on the program
was taken up.

compact pastorate, was opened by
Bro. D. o. Hunter, followed by Rev.
