TRAINED WESTERN HORSES
Ray Thompson Troupe with Buffalo
BfII's wild West Only Horses
of Their Kind.

Some years ago Il was considered i'm
possible to completely subdue the descend
ant Of the wild horses OF the plains. Their
ancestors noamed at free viii upon the
broad p~rairies and their progeny were born
to the open. The Indian was the first be-
ing to mount and ride them. For years tho
red man was their only master. Then the
cattle ranges sprung up. when the middle
west had been civilized under the musketry
of Uncle Sam. The cowboys must have
mounts, and the wild horse was at last
coralled.
But they objected to the curb and saddle,
and to this day bucking bronchos are COM
mon to the plains. In fact. one Of the live
Hest parts Of the Buffalo Bill entertainment
are the cowboy exhibitions OF these frac-
tious steeds. To see these bucking ponies
and then. in the same arena, witness the
graceful feats Of the Ray Thompson troupe
of western range horses, one finds an i'm
mediate contrast and can realize the diff
culties attendant upon any effort to bring
into submission these free-born equines OF
the prairies.
With no other exhibition are trained
horses OF this breeding to be found. They
are a positive rarity among show horses.
But not alone in this particular is the
Buffalo Bill show distinctive. Its big In
dian battles and scenes typical of early life
upon the plains are to be duplicated no.

ley's latest discovery Of millions Of germs

II would be an excellent thing for the

SEEKING FOR HER SOUL MATE
Test of Psychic Force that Failed
MiserabIy, but Ended
All Right.

'Psychical experts are not in favor with
the top-floor girl. Recently she attended
a lecture delivered by one OF the red-tur-
baned variety, whose text was the uner-
ring accuracy with which the truly eman-
cipated could detect the approach Of a per-
son in whom the heart Is conferred. After
the top-floor girl had had time to think
that theory over she decided TO put It to a
test on Mr.. Biakeslee. THE top-floor girl
was modest. She had never admitted out
right, either to herself or to Mr.. Blakes-
lee. that her heart was centered on him
but she was very fond of him, and she
knew that IL the plan would work with
anybody 1t would with him.
She tried 1t last Wednesday. She had an
engagement with Blakeslee for luncheon at
a downtown restaurant. As usual, the
meeting place was st. Paul's. The top
floor girl was ahead of time, so she went
into the church and sat down near the
door.
II shall not" she said, keep bobbing my
head around every few seconds this time as
| usually do when looking for Fred. 1 shall
depend upon psychic force. l shall just sit
here with my head bowed devoutly, and
then when he comes in my soul, II 1 truly
love him, will tell me he is here. II It
doesn't tell me. then I shall know I don't
love him, and that we might as well call
the deal off"
For many minutes the girl dug ridges in
her forehead against the back of the pew
in front of her. Many a ~footstep passed
down the aisle. but none awakened in her
heart the expected sense OF affinity. Fin
ally the girl looked up dispiritedly.
1T is no use" she said. Fred and ]
are not twin souls. I have waited more
that two hours. He has certainly been
here, yet my heart did not tell me when
he was near. neither did his tell him in
what pew to look for me. We had better
part"
The top-floor girl went around to a res
taurant in Park row and ordered a cup OF
coffee and cocoanut pie. Thus fortified.
she called on Blakeslee.
Fred" she said sadly. II will detain you
only a minute I think 1t best to tell you
right now that all is over. We are not
mated and"
- let up on that, please" interrupted
Blakeslee. II don't blame you for being
huffy, but / couldn't help it. / had an ole

CRUEL JOLT FOB The SMELLS
Newport Grocer RashIy, D~efiantIy, In
sist on the Payment Of
Food Bills.

Newport, r. l., prize resort Of the Amer
lean millionaire. often startles the coun-
try with some novel social stunt? some
thing out of the common run by people
with means to crafty their tastes. But
while money is poured out for novelties
which Command space in society columns,
the idea OF paying for the common place
articles known as groceries Is not seriously
harbored by the swells. To give that idea
some prominence in the social calendar a
Newport resident pulled off a stunt Of his
own creation in the form OF an advertise
ment, running In these words;
After. this date, July 1. we shall con-
duct our business as follows:

days.
Wholesale accounts, not over thirty

Difficult accounts will be placed in the
hands of our attorneys for collection.
Newport merchants cannot successfully

and exacted."
Following up the Jolt Of this unspeakably
rude "ad,' the irate grocer drew from
his profit and loss account these reflections
on wealthy ~deadheads:

UnwOund by south Dakota
Farmer.

1t is a pleasing circumstance that. durine
these busy days In the cereal belt. when
the crops are springing joyously from a
fertile soil. and every speeding moment is
as precious as shining gold 20 the thrifty
sgriculturists. the necessary time In which
to commit TO paper and send by mail
truthful nature stories, OF a character cal
culated to interest and instruct their fell
low men, is not ~begrudged by the intelli-
gent and observant northwestern farmers.
II this were not the case we should
now be denied the details OF the remark
able incident reported from worthing, S,
d. Although Henry Hanson, a farmer,
was the observer in this Instance, we airs
indebted to Melvin E. sundvold. a neigh
| boring farmer. who took down Mr.. Han
sons statement, for the story. 1t may b.
briefly retold;
Farmer Hanson was walking down besid,
the drainage canal. In Grant township
into which large numbers OF pike were
swept during the last high water. He
had not gone far when he noticed a great
disturbance in the canal. on closer in
spection he saw that one OF the larg r
pix had assembled the bank. secured a
calf by the tail. dragged 1t into the water,
and was striving to overcome 1t and carry
1t off. Whereupon TO use the language OF
the dispatch;
The farmer, with his bare legs, was
afraid Of barbed wire, but he waded eau
tiously toward the calf, and, just as he
caught 1t, a monster pike dashed the water
all over him and for a moment he was
blinded. wiping the water from his eyes,
he found the calf was being dragged To-
ward deep water. Hanson made a des-
perate effort to reach the animal bsfora
It was dragged into the canal but he failed
and the calf struggled until it finally
drowned
There is no attempt here to magnify this
loss suffered by the owner OF the calf
simply for sensational effect. or to mini
mice the importance of the incident for
fear of discouraging prospective immi-
grants. Manifestly, the sole desire Of Mr.
sundvold is to place on record an interest
ing and instructive fact in natural history.
