iJBallet iS)rJ^sr,3Jt_.krjiI_toii<M,..nmn't . cook for the field ontfit of- the Circle M ranch. The.cowboys had given him this

"' ‘name because, as one of them explain­ed. tho cook had a wooden leg und was

Bpider had no hcadw a^a libel. He bad a head. nnd. though it was small and not'at all beatitifdl, it was a very good one and was cpVercd with a heavy

vthatch of extraordinarily red hair:. As Spicier—worked among tho pots

■ and pans he certaiuly was awkward. . 1. had been watching him nil tlie morn­ing. I had nothing else to do.

It waS'btit a very short time since 1 “ had acquired an interest^ in the'Circle

J1 brand.. Jnst before this a largo num­ber of cattle had been B old and driven away overland. toward, the railway, where they coulti lie shipped to the east, and I had a t once been sent forward to

""■“badger holerbrmtlting lrisieg and at-thtf- sn.nie time spraining one of my ankles

and a wrist. In a bed made np in one"t5f the sprfnglcss wagons 1 had ~ been

painfully jolted for a couple of stages •over the half desert plaid: ' Then wa reached tlio Rio Gila and..stopped,,for-

. tho river was full from bank to hank , with rnshing, brown water, far too

deep and too swift for us to attem pt- crossing it w ith tho cattle. We could

only w ait nntil tho river fell.' • ‘•W hat's the m atter witli tbo boy?’

Tasked, “ C an't he'cookf” ,“ Yon don' go for ter s'pose I'd trns'

an if ho conjd he’d bo alwns tryip sbmd • er them monkey shines er his, eo's you

Why. i t was only a week back that lie took somo salt .an saleratns- an-:stnincti" it with cpftee. so’s it looked like brown, spgnr, an givo.it ter the boya ter sweeten ther slumgnllion (tea) with.- They said ,1 was a-tryin ter pizen.’em, thb boys . did, an.tlrey irii'd if- l~did_i t seme inoro-;

“ Bui you know, thaJ'Vonlcln’t 'havei, done anytliing o f tlje-Bprt;” I. inter-

[ou icing cattle,, ii'tlicy iia'pptned Vj bo iu sight, ns they wandered about looking for something tp eat. I could neversee how they managed in the course of ni lay to gather a m ail, even though they should sprint from ono hunch of the bard., wiry grass to another. They did manage it somehow, though, andjtlleir ordinary gait when, feeding ■ was., very, far indeed from being a sprint.'. Thi? cattle, however. 'wera seldom in sight, and at th e ' best they were not very interesting, so I took to watching the cook ontfit instead, more.Especially that part’of the cook outfit whure Spider happened to lie. I t was not aV all diffi­cult to see .that_Spider!s work was ex­tremely distasteful to him, and really .it was, hardly to Jie wondered a t W ash­ing greasy tin flioUcs and scouring pots and kettles are not tasks that wonld commend themselves to the .average Soy.._ It.wus through.this disj.ilte,_ prob­ably. that most- of bis awkwardness arose ’

Af terhurry ihg throngb w ith his work he would extract from tho cook wagon abuiidle. of leu tiler rind go to’ tbe tem ­porary corral, shaded by a big cotton­wood tree, where tho- 13 big vrngdn horses were kept. He would sit.thero for lionrs. patiently stitching nt tho leather with- awl and waxtfd end and all the while , carrying on an animated conversation with the horses

My-first efforts tp get' acquainted with Spider were unsuccessful.. He cpald hbTi forget th a t'I was ope of the' ’people vaguely referred to as “ the 'bosses," to whom tho cook lind so often threatqnagl to report him Once or twice I called him over to mo and tried to get him to talk, bnt, \>is evident uneasiness during this ordeftl induced uie to give it up.

After awlfile, however. Spider so far •forgot-hia-roser-ve na-to grin as he. passed, me, nnd then, findihg that I' took no official notice of his mony^misdeeds, lie gradually nnbent and ’ fiqajlv uecnmc- ijnite friendly in n co.ndeatfendin^-sp^t' of way. Little by little lie gat into-the habit of comihg to my tent instead of going"to thf! corTiil, arid a t Tenglh. a fte r’ considerable hesitatlons he brought hia sewing with him.

“ Whiit is it' tliat you’re ’ trying tc make, SpiderV1’ I asked him as he seated himselfi tailor fashion, in the sliado oi--=tl>e>-.tentTfly»and=fUnrplletl.,lii31 leather bundle.' “ Chnps.’’ ha replied', holding them up for inspection. Then

‘‘Well, I c’n thrpw er ro p e a lli ig h t,” he went on, looking a t 'me from tim e, to tim e with a profeseional eyo appar­ently, tp seo hpw I was cppking. “ I .c ’n"

So there ain! no w ayouter gettin thb outfit th a t l c’n s e e /’" He-paufio'd for a 'rep ly , hn t his .logfc was eo unanswerable thnt I had none to make, nnd Spider went on. '■

To tell the trn th , i d idn’t have “ no use for Pug Hollis’.’ either. He was a sullen, 'rinpleasant sort pf ’perspn, and he abused liis horses. " I Vfpnld have dis­charged him lpng before hut for tho fpct that we were short handed. Help was Bcarco and getting scarcer; eo.. though ! disliked this man, I had-to let him stay. .

• When Spider’s chaps were nearly fin­ished, lie devoted every moment of hia. leisure time to them. Tbo whole camp wa's made-aware of this fact by the nri- wonted qniet of the evenings.

Ordinarily, as soon as supper was over anil Spider had Gniahec^the dishes, one njight hear tho rush of 'a galloping h'prs’e, 1 ;hen sliouta aiid oathsTcbmrng from the owner, of that horse, followed by what Svas known ,as “ language’ --•?- {fiat* is, very" b a | langnage indeed— froui all liauds, . iespecially . the coolc.

By these signs. I 'w ould know that Spider-was- practicing.

“ I got. ter keep my ridm up ,’’ Spider '4xclafmed‘ when .X renionst’rated w ith ' him. “ I (voaidn' stan no sprt er ashpw for a job—u kid like iue—if I couldn ride. 'Then I ,a in ’ get no horses er m y - ow n.'’ •

Washington, April- 11. — Thb' senate committee on , privileges and elections, which 1ms forisome months been investi­gating the chni'goM of bribery iu cohnec- tioii with the election of Senator Clark* of

Jdjuutana^-hn's-votod unanlmousiy-to reer ^mmt')id tlia f’lie: be imHentud. The de­cision was reached after u discussion lasting two lionrs.' I t is likely that the senate will be ask- «d to consider the case ut an early dutt; The report against Senator Clark being unanimous, i t is thought that, there will be very little, discussion of the .resolutions affecting him, , 1■ »It is possible that Senator Clark will resign in view of the-mmnimous report. The committee is xohiposed of 'five R'e- Iiublleans and four••■Dcmpcrilts, anil. the ri'lmkc contained in the imanlinous ugiee- riient' th a t 'h e obtained his election by bribery. Is uhprecedcnteil iu the history of the sennte. A majority: vote-is required tb pass the reHoliitlob, which simply says that W. A. Clark is not entitled to a Bent iu ihe seriate from the State’ of Montana. In view of the committee's action it is uliiiost certain tliat this vote would fol- Iciw. Maii>-of Mr. Clark's friends advise him to resign.

A t th a t same time there was a viist amount of clearing house certificates in,'New York, tuS'lsBUe'of $70,000,000inh"all,'atldtheseclearlng^ house certificates were counted a s o part of the reserves. As a m atter of fact, they had no more right t t be counted as cash than the individual Rotes e f persons ill- the ierakR. A dele- gation of New Y orkers Vailed upon, Eckels and told-hint th a t such was the case. I t worried him a gi'eat deal, u.t after looking over the situation pretty carefully he deelded to tak e the risk and allow these certificates to be so counted, w ith' the result itliat many batiks in New York were not closed up. The'gentleiuaii who was felling this Bays th a t Jiot_dnly_.iu .Kansas, but in . many other s ta tes,.and especially in' th e big''banks of New York, the cool nerve of Keitels was responsible; for1 saving a tremendous crash. ‘‘T h e y 1 may Impeach me,” said Eckels, “but I rather th ink 1 4am doing the proper thing for the country.”

Loniton, April 11 .^-A'third very.-serimi? defeat has been,indicted upon th e British forces in tho Orange Kree. State, accord ing to-disputches to/rh^Daily..Mail, quoi ing advices fVom-Bber sources. ,. .Tlio reppi-t^d .facts of* the victory- arc tlu\t ou Saturday General ; De .Wet’s burghers attacked 'a British force* 3,500 strong a t MeerktUafontcln. After a iierce

^engiigoment^It^ -which, according fo one account . < K)0 ‘ British 'were, killed wounded; tB<TBoers captured-the', entire couiiuand. . • \^The war. office has not mn’dc public any dispatched lncytating the possibility of such an engagement, nor .do.any of-the press telegrams' received from corre­spondent^ with tlie British army, many of which bear later date than Saturday, contain any hint of this disaster. .

A8 Lord Roberts has’, httherto nevei' failed to. report- promptly mlschanbes aB well as successes, or to allowthti-uewspa per correspondents to report them, the Meerkatsfoiitoiu rumor may be only-an exaggerated account of the Rcddersburg affair. , .

... L o c a t io n N ot C e r ta in .{The location of Meerkatsfoiitoiu, where,

the battle is said to have been fouglit, is uncertain. One dispatch sa3*s it is t o ‘the south of-Bloeuifontein-and -apparently in the neighborhood of Reddersburg. If this be‘the case, the British force alleged to have been cut off plight be the column which Gatacre 'sent to Reddersburg to aid the hard prensed British force there which arrived, after the surrender -and then retired to Beth ante. *

Another .Pretoria dispatch locates the battlefield south of Bramlfort and north of Bloe.mfoutein, in which case, it might be . iiai t of J General Tucker’s division* which’r has .been ; lying at • Knree -Siding since* the battle around the kopjes tliere^

>j[pst_of-the .dispatches agree in stating that the British •Jo^f in killed, wounded and prisonei’s.I,i>d0 men%

Hard fighting took, place, Monday^ and yesterday aroupd • Wcpeper,* where ‘part of Gciieral Braliant’s coldnial division is' being attacked-by the Boers. The losses iu the first day’s battle are said to have been heavy. {The \>urghers have been-re-enforced by a commando from De. Wets dorp and renewed the attack yesterday, t h e 'result of which is hot lino-wu,— •

That Lord Roberts realizes the seri­ousness of present conditions in .the Free State J s showjrby. the fa c t that Geiieral Rundle, with' his Eighth division, has bfen ordered to Springfontein. This puts 1 0 , 0 0 0 more men 011 duty to guard the railway and keep-the Boers away from the British line of communications.

C a p e C o lo n y . Boers have aguiiT crossed the Orange

river, which will tend to s t i r ‘up a new rebellion among the Dutch in the north of Cape Colony. They are in greatest force; near Aiiwal North, nt Odendaal- stroon, cftst _of JBethu 1 i^ a n t l . south^of Sniitbtield. They 7have destroyed the pout over the river. . • /

Practically the;Boers hold the whole of the Free State east of the railway, all the Way from Ficksburg to the Orange river. Two thousand of them are said to be marchiniJ• from Smithlield on Springfontein 3 unction. •

It is-very probable that witli only his division General Gatacre would not have been able to hold all-the railway line as far* north a t the Kaffir .river had not Ruudlc’s division been ordered to his as­sistance;— ' ■ ' V *. /

It is now made plain that Colonel Plumcf penetrated within six miles of Mafeking on March 111, .but. was then

.obliged-to-retire* to avoid being outflank­ed. l ie fell back not'merely to Ramath- labama, but even to h^s base canip.

Until the Boer besiegers are seriously threaleued from the-BOuth-it-secms-ceiv. tain that the relief of Mafeking cannot be effected. . Weeks must elapse before the Rhodesia horse of Plumcr can be' re-enforced by any troops coming by way of Beira and Sallsburg.

Mafeking and its heroic defenders may have weeks of weary waiting yet before them ’uiiless the investing aruty is.called off to some other quarter.
