HUNTING WILD HORSES.
How Rrumbies In New South Wales
Are Trapped and Broken.

How Rrumbies In New South Wales
Are Trapped and Broken. s
Hunting .'brumb ies. /" as the wild
horses are called there, is d favorite
sport In New South Wales. Districts
like the, Clarence and Stephens and
Manning river watershed are still the
home Of numerous droves Of brum-
bies, and hunting them is declared to
be a. very exhilarating pastime The
, first step taken Is to stake out corral
and make all secure except a narrow
entrance which can subsequ ently be
gated. On either side OF the entrance
and projecting from it funnelwise q
/ .'booby fence" Is prepared.
To the simple minded brumby 1t
presumably looks like q stockade, and
pieces Of nuttering cotton make 1t look
impregnable. When this Is ready. the
young, bloods. well mounted. gallop
out and round up the wild horses.
driving them with shouts and much
loud swapping Of stock whips toward
the mouth OF the funnel. ss3s
In group OF brumbies there is al
ways leader, and when once the
hunters have got the leader heading
for the corral they are pretty certain
OF the rest of the drove. The hutter-
Ing cotton rags Of the sham fence are
sufficient to deter the brumbies frem
breaking; through the fimsy barriers,
and in less time than It takes to tell
the wild horses are safely corralled
and the big gate shut on them.
Then they are left for four and
twenty hours without food and water
to reflect on the situation, and after
that they can be broken In without
much difficulty London Standard.

Frank Wilson, state oil Inspector,
sought to make some capital ont of
the fact that special train took
Republicans down to Gsan1 Forks
to hear Taft, intimating that no
such special went to hear Bryan.
The reason Bryan had no special
train was probably that there was
not enough interest on the part Of
the people of the state in Bryan to
warrant the effort to get special
train and to insure paying for it..
The special trains to the Taft meet
ings were bought and paid for by
Republicans VINO took passage on
them, and who were anxious enough
to hear the next president to pay
their fares to Fargo. There was no
concession on the part OF the rail-
roads, as Wilson would intimate.
The running of special trains was
purely a business matter between
the roads and the Republican hus-
tiers who guaranteed the necessary
number of fares.

case, it can hardly be said that any
grave pollution exists, for Missouri

as a pure and healthful water. =
1T is: said that no hardship can

Ian opportunity to obtain an abund-

the charges that are laid against the

Cities through the state are bonding
for large sums to obtain the water;
necessary to insure the growth of a.
considerable population. It is true
that Bismarckgis required to make
