HORSE MEETS HIS MASTER.
Satan Didn't Want to be Shod and
Gave Blacksmith Hand
Tustle.

Des Moines Register and Leader.
With eyes flashing, nostris dis
tended, ears Laid back, mouth open.
and whiskers standing sharply on end,
Satan, vicious horse, gave desperate
battle with blacksmith yesterday
afternoon. Satan determined he
would not be snod; the blacksmith
shod him single handed, but, in the
trlssle; had his left hand Literally
crushed. Several bones were broken
and the smith suffered eScruciating
pain.
The name of the smith is W. 81.
Brown, former trooper in Troop d.
Eleventh Cavalry, WHO WIS Iisoirarg-
ed here and took up his trade with
Vroman.
Satan is beauty; a little sorrel
weighing scarcely more than 1900
pounds, plump and full Of ginger and
fire.
Satan has always rebelled savage
" against the iron shoe. His very
name was given him on this account.
He has never been known DO let a
smith shoe him without being bound
by leather straps until he could not
move. Brown is a wiry soldier, erect
and solid.
Satan was led in by common hal
ter and tied to the ring in the side OF
the wall. With great leather apron
about his waist, Brown took the shoe
and approached Satan. Quick as a
flash the horse wheeled and both
feet shot into the spot where Brown s
stomach was-but Brown was quick
er in removing it.
Then came into paly the scientific
blacksmith 8 tactics, picked up In the
United States army, where bad horses
are plentiful. Advancing to Satan s
side Brown was ready for the next
spring and caught Satan sharply in
the side with the point Of his elbow;
painful grunt was Saban's reply,
and he huddled himself in surprise IN
a corner.
The smith stopped to Lift a hoof
and Satan, without moving his fore
parts, deliberately twisted himself in
a position to let fly one foot. but
Brown again escaped by springfhg to
one side; this time, however, the
smith trapped the fellow and caught
his left foot before he had the leg
stiffened. There was a struggle.
Brown again approached the horse.
and cruelty pressed down, cramping
the leg so that Satan stood still, while
the hot iron was pressed against his
hoof; then Satan's hoof was released.
For the first time he took a good
look at the man who dared.
When the shoe was ready to nail,
Brown aagin approached the horse.
The same tactics we're adopted, ex-
cept that at the crucial moment Sa-
tan, instead of merely twisting him
self, cnouched and jumped forward
as far as his halter would allow and
let fl ly his left foot twice so quickly
that it caught Browns hand each

The boys began gathering materials and
arranging them in long bed in the place
Jed had pointed out. They were not sur
prised at his taking it for granted that he
could fix the exact spot where the tree would
fall, for they we'll knew him to be one of
of stakes with the trunk of felled tree.
Meanwhile, Jed began chopping away with
heavy, swinging blows, making the cut as
high as he could reach, in order to avoid the

just at the beginning of the hollow part.
After working vigorously for some time,
he stopped to survey the boys preparations
''That'll do-that's plenty. Now, take
these matches and touch it off. The tree'll
be down with two or three more chops, and
we must have a good thick smoke ready"
The fire started at once, sending aloft
heavy cloud of smoke, which grew thicker
and thicker until the fuel was alight through

much flame.

He struck several powerful blows, and was
in the act of delivering another when the
pine broke short off at the cut and plunged
quickly down-so quickly, in fact, that jed

forward, barely escaped being hit by the inn

Crash went the huge tree upon the hard
ground, wi tn its dark boughs splintering and

loud report. And above all this noise there
arose sharp, yet deep humming sound like

He pointed toward the box. small white
object, darting swiftly from the woods, was

1t was the four-sprinEled bee returning for

"All right" said Jed, putting away his
watch and making mental calculation
''The trees about mile off to the north.

1t was not a smooth path they took-in-

learned that scrambling through thick tor

carry was hard work; yet, nevertheless, they
steadily followed Jed, who, compass in hand,
tramped along at a surprisingly fast rate.
But he gradually reduced his pace, and
walked more and more slowly, looking sharp

into comparatively open spot, he stopped
