Ha says as a berth on the rce is worth a salary of $100 a ?nd a lot of outside inoney to a Arrivea nere he was left m charge Ot the others while the leader went and ex-plained the situation to his master. In a few minutes the young Englishman was summoned to the pre"noe of Mr, Philpott, whom he found lying in bed. After saluting Hofvce with a savags glare, ho said : "Perhaps, young man, yon can explain why you tried to drive off my cattlor Sam "says yon bought 'em from some one." "And so I did," Horace replied, and at once gave a full account of the transac-tion. "Waal, stranger," said the wounded ranchman, "that beats anything I ver heerdl That man as yon paid that money to ain't got no more to do with them cattle than the emperor of China has. Now, look here, my lad. I'm nigh on to CO years old, and I've been out hsr thirty, and what I don't know about these parts ain't worth knowing. Take my advice. Go home and stay thar. This ain't no country for yon, and ef yon stay you'll only come to grief. A man as will give $5,000 to a stranger for a scrap of paper ain't going to get on here-abouts. You shall sleep here t, stranger, and I'll treat you hospitable; but, take my advice, set out for home And when that night Horace lay on the hard bed in the old Texan's houe, the rectory on his father's estate appeared in a more desirable light than it ever had before, and be came to the conclusion that a country parson's life was bnA?r than a ranchman's. Ho has returned home without the anticipated fortune and minus his aunt's li gacy. True Flag. been led to expect, but they were not so bad as to cause him to change his mind. The handsome two story dwelling, a photograph of which had been shown to him in London, turned out to be a com-bination of stable and cattte shed, with a loft, which had been used by the last owner as his habitation. The soil was fairly fertile and the past-tur- e good, but the broad deep river which he expected to find flowing in front of i the building was in reality only a gully i a few feet wide, down which water did elowly trickle in the winter, but which ' was perfectly dry. during the summer months. However, he was not discour-aged, and having obtained a concession in tho price, he paid the first installment of the purchase money. Then he brought out his three dogs and all his portman-teaus, and took possession of the loft over thc stable. Two days later he be-came the possessor of a horse and a mule, paying a price for them that made his neighbors smile when they heard of it. Every man in the locality now cahed and offered to sell to him "cheap" many implomente and animals which they did not need, but without which, they said, he could not possibly get along. One individual, whom he had previ-ously met in Austin, camo from a dis-tant ranch, and begged him to go and see some cattle he had to sell. Isow cat-tle wore what Howce wanted, and be-lieving himself to be a fair judge of them, he mounted his home and roue away with his new acquaintance. After a ride of about twenty miles they reached an inclosed tract of land upon hundred head of stock were which over a grazing, unattended by cowboys home." Horace went to the bank (he had de-posited his money here when last in Austin, there being no such institution as a bank in Helena), drew out the necessary amount, and returning to the hotel paid the purchase money and took a receipt. Then the Texan told him to go and hire two cowboys to help him to drive the cattle home and to bring them out to the ranch, to which he himself would at once ride on and order his lads to get tho animals together, so that no time need be wasted. Horace had no difficulty In finding two mounted men willing to help him drive his purchase to his ranch, and at-tended by them he trotted off in hopes of overtaking his new friend. But he arrived at the field where the cattle were grazing without doing so, and fur-thermore on his arrival could perceive nosimofthe Texan. He waited a few minutes, then said to one of the cow-boys: "It's odd that Mr. Philpott isn t here. How can we got them out? "Can't do it," was the laconic reply. "Rope's too plentiful hereabouts to be driving awav cattle without the owners consent. I know old Philpott; he am t to be trifled with. Wht.t you got to show von bought 'em?" Ho-a- ce held out his receipt and each of the cowboys looked at it. "Tiat's right enough." said one of them "ho'll be here soon, I guess." But they waited half an hour and he did not come, so Horace, thoroughly siuwthed the lock angry aud impatient, on tiv) Kite and rode into the inclosure, followed by his two attendants. He had, he said, paid for the stock, and he wa going to take them. Then the three cantered off in differ-ent directions to bring the animal, to-gether. But while they were so em-ployed the report of a rifle caused them to K-.- the country, and they perceived three men galloping toward them. "Them's Philpott's boys," said one of Horace's new employes: "we'll wait I0And 'they sat still upon their horses until the tbrw men, each holding a re-volver in his right hand, rode up and 8ked in no very polite lmguage what thev were doing with tho cattle.
