Tlie two were looking at Hrimstonc, who stood tied to a wagon, and w ith head erect and s white gleam in the corner of hin eye wan waiting for w hoover mi',ht come near. A beaten path which circled behind him at le.-ud ten feet beyond hin hoot was re ligiously followed by every one who jmwd. "Sell him to the Morrton when we gr-t to Silt Lake City," aaid Frank. "'It'll nerve Vm both riirlit." "S'io'e I give hint to you to ride?" "Thank you for reinemlMiring me," niid Frank, "but I don't r.H'd him. The hono have unit me." '! know it, Frank, but jea' hnik nt the matter a.jnar' now. You know we can't be carryin alor.if idle stock thia way. We've got to put him to aomo line, and titer's nobody with the train kin back that brute tmh'. it'a yovi. He's got the tiiakin' of a mighty tine saddle animal if you kin master him." "Well, Pete, to help you out, I'll try him." S.i the next morninir Frank, w ith mueh can' and patience, got a addle and bridle on brimstone, and nt a propitious moment vaulted into the saddle, where he stayed. The mule buck"d virioi.sly, and made a lone, violent struejle, which he renewed at int. r als dnrinc 'hat mid several sue iiedimf days. Finding that he could not unseat his plucky rider, he at length -ave up try in., mid M t'.led into his natural u'.iit, a lone, easy lope. His pace was wonderfully swift and strong, and Pete's predict ion of what Brimstone could do under a saddle was verified. Hl backward laid earn came niddaoly forward a for a moment hi had faced round with an expreaaion of deep and reproachful surprise. Hi body humped together until it sswmed aa if the aaddle at the ape must go over tho neck or crupper. Then he headed toward the wagon train, straightened out and went. And how he went! His first jump was no sudden na nearly to leave hi rider lie hind on the prairie. His next waa longer and his pace kept improving nil the way. A linn of dust explosions marked the spot where his hind feet struck. As his body lengthened in long bounds tho saddle cinch fairly swept the grass, nnd all Frank could do waa to hold on, save his brenth and try to keep hi toes front striking the prairie-dog mounds. Ilia two companion when half-wny to the train suddenly beenmo aware that Frank waa not with them. Without stopping they looked back. They after ward told him that they saw something coming, on the dead jump, Ix-hind them. It went o fast tlmt they couldn't well make out whether it was a mule or a Minther that was mnking such surprising speed, but could only s.-e that it waa gaining headway nt every leap. It over hauled them in no time, passed them aa a yellow streak nnd directly they nw, a thousand yards ahead, a commotion among the wagons. In their narration something Is to bo allowed for the rxiurircrateil form of ex pression in vogue on the . plains in that day, nnd which is even yet not wholly extinct. It i.s certain that the mnle went ery fast, and in the race to the train badly beat the two good hor.es which had a long start. The pursuing Indians never got nearer the linile than when he started, and were roriLAR SCIENCE. piickly left far behind.

It was through this chain of evcn.. that r.rimstonc eai.ic to be leeding by this little parlv of three who loitered at mid- Tlie saddles short distance, when they stopped and sat motionless in amazement, watching his mule's performance. They gathered in a circle mid remained a long time pow wowing over the prodigy which had manifestly impressed them iut "big medi cine." Frank tried to rein in his mule near the wasons, but could not. Fear ing, he afterward Miid, that the mule in tended to keep straight on to Salt Lake. City, and meant to get there that night, he, as a last resort, pulled him into one of the teams head on" nnd Hrimstone came to a full .stop in a tangle of mules. Frank kept on a dojen or fifteen yards farther, sailing, like a frog to water, over the wagon mules and describing a para .Imv iiM.l-r the Line ikv and bridles h.v when' thov had l'cn j bola which met the prairie w ltti a tliunip, thrown down.'

I have to sav that the mule got no sym- i.ft. r contentedly at the end of their lnriats. There wa i:o sign of danger on the broad plain. Nevertheless, it were will for the party to have borne in mind that the swells of the rolling pmirie and deep rHvim-s might conoenl the inconveniently near approach of an enemy.

Ten Decades in It ice. Apropos of the centennial period, Messrs. Dan Tnlnmgv' Sons presented brief resume of the domestic rico crop during the past century uuder the title "Ten Decades in Hire." In 17ti'. it wu mainly grow n in the State of South Caro lina and (ieorgia. but the area gradually extended until it took iu nil of tho State of North Carolina and the borders ot Alabama and Florida. During the war the culture was practically suspended, 11s the rice sections were overrun or occupied by the United States army. At the close of the war the culture was resumed, at first in a most limited way, but it rapidly developed until it reached its old-time. proportions. No stati-tics are given of tli't Louisiana crop previous to ls0O, as it did not as oitne commercial importance until after the war. Prior to that period it was of but a few thousand barrels M-r year, und w its known as erode rice. It wa of red dish hue and wa not appreciated, ex ?cpt by the French Creoles in that lo cality. The ratio of iiicreaso h.ui been marvelous, and the fact that the growth has Ik-cu sustained from year to year give evidence that it lnw come to stay. Thn possibilities of the delta innd nt tlm mouth of the Mississippi are equal to tint results now obtuiued from year to year iu the Judicii. I'Limtina anil Qrortfta. JjmiMiaiia.
