Champion Steer-Tyer Tnk'ea Desperate
Chance for Life.
Two years ago, when tho cowboys of
northeastern Arizona camo together to
find out who was tho "best man" In
various ways, James Evans won the
Bteer-tylug championship by roping,
throwing and tying a vicious steer In
twenty-four seconds. But lu a recent
round-up the champion 'did a more re
murknble thing, by which, says the
Kansas City Star, ho saved his own
and another man's life,
While he nnd some companions were
camping for tho night on a high table
land, which ended a few miles away In
an abrupt drop of two hundred feet, a
storm swept through tho mountains.
Mndo nervous by the lightning, tlio
herd of fifteen hundred cattle stam
peded In tho direction of tho precipice.
Kvaus and his men mounted hurriedly,
ami circling to tho front of tho mad
dened cattle, tried wltlr whoops and
revolver-shots to turn them back.
In the dense blackness of the night
Evans' horse missed his footing and
went down In a houp, one leg In a
gopher-hole. The horse of a cowboy
named Davis, running close behind,
stumbled over Evans' horse, and Da
vis, too, cam to earth and lay still,
unconscious.
Fifty yards away came the herd, and
a short flash of lightning showed
Evans the situation. Tho swiftly mov
ing sen of cattle reached one hundred
yards each way. Unable to arouse
Davis, and never thinking of leaving
his disabled comrade, Evans took the
only chance of saving both. Ho emp
tied his own revolver and his compan
ion's Into the center of the herd, cut
ting u breach In the front of tho mass.
Then throwlug the Inanimate form of
Davis over his shoulder, he awaited
his opportunity. ,
As one of the leaders brushed by,
Evans, with one movement, put tho
body of Davis across the shoulders of
the steer, and mounted, also. Vainly
the animal leaped, bucked and side-
Jumped. With his legs wrapped tight
ly s round the body of his mount,
Evans drove his spurs deep In, and
held himself and Davis In place.
Tho steer, wild with rago, agony and
fright, rupldly left tho herd In the rear,
and veering to the right In a furious
gallop, carried his riders out of dan
ger. Then Evans rolled off the back
of his strange rescuer, and a half-hour
later, when his cowboys turned the
herd at tho rim of the canon, and rodo
back to look for the foreman and' Da
vis, they found them both unconscious.
The weary steer, with his sides covered
with blood, fay exhausted a short dis
tance away.
Tho outfit ordered a medal for Brans,
and the steer has been pensioned for
life on the best alfalfa In tho vat
ley.

Faith In Trainer Departed When The
Baw 111m Drank.
A really remarkable story of aalina. own
perception has been contributed to
Frank Leslie's Monthly by Frank Bos
tock, who may bo considered an au
thority on wild animals in captivity.
I once had u trainer, Mr. Bostock
says, an old Irishman who had served
In a British regiment In India, aad who
know the ways of tigers In every de
tail. Ho taught three of them to do
mora work In the arena than I nave
ever aeen doae by any other tiger, 1
have seen nlw sitting down between
two of them at rest times during "re
hearaala and examining their claws to
see If any of theat were eere ar split
Any on who has ever tried that with
van a bouse cat knewa that" it strikes
the" feline ntture as an .unwarrantable
familiarity; .but they never did mora
than show their teeth aud whine, and
that half In playfulness.
One day the old fellow got very
drunk, the first time In his life, to my
knowledge. Before be was noticed en
his return to the cage he bad gone In
with his tigers and fallcu In a heap on
the floor.
Tho other keepers made several at
tempts to take him out of the cage,
but It was at once apparent that to do
so meant a bitter and bloody tight
with the tigers. They guarded hlru aN
night In his drunken slumber. Bnt the
next time he put them tn work they
balked, and ho could uelther persuade
aor drive thein.
They had ceased to trust klin, or
something of that sort, and his useful
ness with them was at an end forever.
That was Indeed "Judgment
fled to brutish beasts."
Willlama and Whlked and their
big company of fifty peo
plo under tho direction of Hur
tlg & Seamon, will produce this
aeiiBon an original musical farco com
edy, "Sons of Ham." All tho songs
and music uro now and aro products
of tho pen of Williams and Walker.
Tho scenery and electrical effects are
