BREAKFAST IN A COW CAMP.

Up at six in the morning we found
much doing in the camp. The big wag-
on attracted us at once, for the end
gate, or tail-board let down from the
back, propped by a stake in the ground,
formed a table around which stood sew
eral cowboys disposing of quantities of
ham and eggs. Around the fire stood
pots and pans and from which others
of the crew filled tin cups and plates.
Oh, how good was the smell of ham
upon the keen morning air, Well. if
this was the chuck wagon, we were in
deed glad to meet it. But these real
COWBOYS didn't look so much like Rem
ington pictures as we expected: here
was one in overalls, dark flannel shirt,
vest, small felt hat--named Boston, SO
, the Cattle Owners wife said, but not
realizing Bostons possibilities, we turn
ed from him to Pete There was the
big hat, mackinaw, sheepskin ''chaps, ="
clinking spurs, heavy quirt-all the
attributes of the picture cowboy. A
yell from the men interrupted our con-
temptation: ''Jack's horse is bucking"
And, sure enough, it was. Jack, a well
built Indian, sat his pinto with per
feet calm, IL DuCklllS oil ONeI CllS pldC t
while his sombrero, his countenance
and the heavy braids over his shoulders
remained equally unmoved. His general
get-up was more like Boston's than
that of Pete, and he was one of the
best all-around cattlemen on the Reser-
walton our host saba little lesson that
signifed 'Fine chaps do not necessarily
mean fine cOwpunchers.'
Other men were saddling the ponies
that the Cattle Owner was roping down
by the river This process, in addition
to Jacks riding, was as good as Wild
West Show, which the grandstand on
the bank was thoroughly approaching.
However, when Cook looked up from a
pan of eggs to say: amy time you
girls want your breakfast. it's ready"
we event to it, on run. Having kept
our eyes on those who had breakfasted
before us, we found plates and cups
and provender in cow-camp method and
were soon eating a breakfast shocking
to the sensibilitieS of those WhOscannOt
compass more than an orange, muffin
and a cup of coffee.-Florence S. Du
Bots in Recreation for June.

very punetual in attending the SEES

is missed from his familiar seat, but
the chances are that he is only a short
distance away perhaps in the cloak

But in years Mr.. Frye is still quite a
youngster compared with some of his
colleagues in the senate. Just across

that they could almost reach across

front row OF senate seats as Senators
FRYE and Morgan. only little farther
aIoG1Id on tie Democratic side, IS an
other oetogeuarian, tile sight of whom
must make senator Frye feel young.
He is Senator Edward Winston Pettus
of Alabama. born July 6. 1921. He is
almost ten wears older than Mr., Frye
who was born September >, ISL.
Senator Pettus, too, Is an eXemplar
of the simple life He lives in the
eastern section of the city, which is
the most quiet section. His house is
bnt few steps from the capitol. In
the early morning he is ny with the
sun and finds diversion. among other
things, in feeding the squirrels that
flock il the capitol grounds.
But MI Frye las some seniors On the
Republican side of the senate cham
ber one of them is rcIe Shelby

1879. He is two years older than Nh.

senate but Mr., iNe easily looks ten

up for reelection this next year by the
legislature to be elected i'll the autumn.
Right behind Senator Frye sits another
old MANIFESTATION William b. Allison
of Iowa. He was born in OHIO, March
:. 1879. and is therefore two years
older than Mr. Frye. Crossing over to
the Democratic side again, there is an
other veteran in Senator Henry Mon
roe Teller of Colorado, who was born
back in 1880. He, too is an exemplar
of the simple life and has survived to
ripe old age of hard work by unpreten-
tious habits.
