George Foster , of near Sparks ,
met with quite a serious accident
a couple of weeks ago. He saddled
up a young broncho and started to
go down to his brother William's
place and had ridden as far as the
mail box where he got off to get
the mail. After mounting the
horse again he saw that the horse
had become sulky and didn't want
to go. Mr. Foster slapped him
across the neck several times and
the horse went to pitching , finally
throwing Mr. Foster and saddle
over his head. George caught the
horse again , saddled him , drawing
the cinch as tight as he could , and
then mounted him , believing the
horse could not throw him again.
The horse refused to Vnove and
George reached down and thumbed
him , causing the horse to buck
again which lasted for perhaps
five minutes when he again threw
George , saddle , bridle and halter
over his head. George struck on
his head and shoulder , breaking
his collar bone and skinning his
face pretty badly. Dr. Compton
set the bone and Mr. Foster is
getting along nicely. He was in
town last Monday.

Watching the ni-jht descend ;
Watching the daylight fading ,
Watching the colors bleni.
Watching the moon arising ,
From out the dark blue sky ;
Watching the stars a-twmking !
In their vast home oa high.
Thus arise one's hooes he iniirm urcd ,
Arise as does the moon tonight ;
A first with a shadowy luster ,
Then gleaming , II ishing and bright.

Fade as the setting sun ,
Fades when it has accomplished

A cowboy sat 1 y his fireside bright.
And watched the g'eam of its ruddy light ;
The wild wolf's cry rang loud and clear
Over the prairies brown and sere.
The night owls hooted loud and long ,
The crickets sang their evening sDng ;
The lirt'e ' stars shone clear and bright ,
The sky was blue , the c'onds were white.
The ruddy light to embers turned ,
The embt-rs soon to ashes ourned ;
Tht-n tho't he , as the last bright ray
Faded from hia sight aw.iy :
So have the hopes of my bn i ; ! v.tuh.
All that 1 ever irieu : ni truth ;
Thus slowly futled and paised away
lily life , like the ashes , is cold and gray.
