TRAVEL AND ADVENTURE
THRILLING EXPLOITS AND PIC
TURES OF STRANGE LANDS.
iA Lady in Japan.??? An English lady
traveling in Japan writes as follows about her
experience in undress: ???In the country house
of a mined daimo, where we obtained lodging
and entertainment, I was a cause of much
amusement. A number of ladies were in
vited to meet me at afternoon nice (the name
fordinnet). They sat on their heels around
the little table which I used as a chair. My
feet were stretched out before me. The hos
tess with, os I took it, many apologies, began
to Inspect my boots. As her curiosity was
keen, I drew them off. All the ladies poun
ced upon them, and some of them asked leave
to put them on. Before doing this, they
caused bowls of hot water to be fetched, wash
ed their feet carefully and dried them by
fanning them, which made the wet evaporate
qnickiy. As they all had children???s feet, my
boots were awkwardly big and more ridicu-
lous than I can say. The ladies next handled
my skirt and corsage, and, to oblige them, I
took them off. The petticoats had their turn,
then my stockings, which (hey did not laugh
at, after them my buckled elastic garters, and
last my stays. Japanese politeness here broke
down. Every one shook and cried with laugh
ter in looking at the stays. One ot the ladies
had picked up some French atOsaka( a treaty
port), and explained to me that the others
wished to know whether the stays had been
invented to serve as a cuirass to protect fair
Europeans from rudo men, or was it worn to
expiate sine? I said: ???No, but to beautify
the figure.??? This answer convulsed them. A
stayed-upwoman affected their impression
able and well-educated eyes as something
monstrously ugly and absurd. Japanese drees
is beautiful, and so easy. There was yet
another question to be answered. There are,
so far as 1 know, neither cows nor goat, in
Japan. Children are not, therefore, weaned
until they arc nearly big enough to go to
school. I had noticed that poor little Miss
Mite was an object of general commiseration,
I did not know why. The reason came out
when my stays were being examined. They
were a barrier between the mother ani tlio
child, which wascut off by them from its
lacteal rights. I told them that we delegated
the nursing duties to poor women and cows.
I saw that! was for a moment an object of
horror.
Saved ox the Gai.lows.???The following
brief news item appeared in a local paper on
Thursday:
Richard Carr, an old Canadian- octogenari
an, who had lived on this side of the lake for
many years, died on Monday last and was
taken to Ontario for interment. He wusonco
sentenced to bo banged.
It was seen by Dr. M. J. Clark, of this city,
and the doctor furnished the following ac
count ot Carr's escape from the gallows:
???I had no idea that Cart was living on this
aide of the lake, or that he was living at all.
Not having heard anything of him for thirty
years I supposed him long since dead. His
arrest, conviction, sentence and escape are
events closely connected with my family and
my childhood, my uncle, ltev. John Ryerson,
being the clergyman who attended Carr to
luccueueu, nuu tu.o,?? ??? -*???* happened.
I was a child at the time, and it happened at
Victoria, a Canadian village jnst across the
lake, about filty-flve years ago. Who did
Carr kill? No one. Ho was a quiet and in
offensive young man, and so was Smith, con
demned to die with him. The affair formed
the theme for many atrocious ballads by vil
lainous village poets, just as the execution of
the three Thayers In Buffalo did. I seo by
the papers that nowaday! a cold blooded
murderer frequently escapes the attention of
her most excellent majesty???s hangman
through some fine point of law; but in the
good old days no poor wretch, whose suffering
family prompted him to steal sheep or oxen,
escaped. They were swung off promptly if
not artistically.
???One day, I remember well, the village was
thrown into great excitement by the discov
ery ot a crime for which the penalty was
death. The whole village of Victoria was in
an uproar. Some one had stolen an ox. A
diligent search resulted in the discovery of
the hide, and suspicion fell upon Carr, who
was known to be poor, and in whose house
the odor of cooked meat still hung. The vil
lage dogberry and shallow dignitaries, that
were next to deities in my eyes then, suc
ceeded in extorting a confession of guilt from
Carr and another poor fellow named Smith.
The culprits were brought to trial, and a jury
of twelve fellowmen found no difficulty in
consigning both to the scaffold, after the
learned judge had expatiated for hours upon
the enormity of the crime against God and
man. _
??? Sentence of death was passed upon Carr
and Smith and they would probably have
been executed the next day, but I suppose
the sheriff thought it would be regarded as
ungentlemanly and unfriendly if he did not
arrange the time so that his distant constitu
ency could get in to witness the sight. Travel
was slow in those days of no railroads. Among
those who were horrified and shocked at the
approaching execution were my uncle, the
spiritual adviser of the poor fellows, and Dr.
John Rolfs whose memory still clings to the
village. The Rev. John Ityerson was brother
to Dr. Egerton Ryerson, D D., superintend
ent of education in Ontario, who died two
yean ago, the houses of parliament adjourn
ing to attend the funeral.
???*Dr. Rolf was more excited than any
other of Smith and Carr???s sympathizers, and
he determined to ride to Toronto and inter
cede with the governor, who, I think, was
Sir John Colborn. Before departing on his
hrzirdous errand of nwrey, Dr. Rolf was
closeted with my uncle, Rev. John Ryerson.
The latter subsequently told me that ho had
agreed to delay toe hanging all he could bv
making the closing prayer as long as his
strength and power of utterauce would per
mit, provided that Rolf had notfeturned.
Good Dr. Rolf calculated upon getting back
a few hours before the time set for the execu
tion. He set out on the swiftest horse to be
bad in the village, but the people had little
faith in his ability to make the journey in
time, and less faith in the governor???s inclina
tion to interfere. The days flew on and the
people Hocked in from the surrounding coun
try. Uncle John did all he could to comfort
the doomed men and lead them to a realiza
tion of a greater mercy than man s, but they
refused to be comforted. The fatal morn
came, but without any tidings of Dr. Rolf.
The hour arrived and the men were led out
to d { e. Private hangings had not come into
fashion then. It was considered good and
wholesome for the common people to witness
the awful and just punishment of the horse,
ab&p or cattle stealer. The gallows was
erected out in the open and in lull view of
all. It was none of your patent, latest style
instrument of death. No sand-bag orecien-
tific teats were made to assure the quickest
death possible. It was a rude structure,
upon which the village carpenter may not
have expended more than two hours labor.
???Smith and Carr were placed in position,
and when the hangman's little preliminaries
were over the sheriff was informed that all
was ready for the parson???s final blessing or
prayer. Then Rev. Rvereon got down on his
knees and began the longest and most re
markable prayer on record. His voice was
low purposely, lor he wished to husband his
vocalstiength. He prayed for about twenty
minutes without creating remark, for long
prayers were not so diitMfcfui then as now
But when he entered upon the second half
hour great restlessness was manifested. The
sun poured down upou the uncovered heads
and many did not hesitate to say aloud that
they were getting too much of a good thing.
The sheriff was impatient and the hangman
looked wesrv. The proceedings made him
tired. Even the poor wretches waiting death
showed signs of annoyance, for uucle had not
told them of his compact with Dr. Rolf. The
murmurs rose higher and higher, but uncle
prayed on without ceasing. An hour passed
and he was still on his knees. There was now
no relevancy in his appeal. He merely ut
tered words and disconnected phrases to con
sume time. The muscl?s of his throat con
tracted, his tongue was dry and clove to his
mouth and his voice was husky, but he
prayed oo, the words falling without mean
ing upon his hearers.
???He told me later thatThe did not know
what he was saying, and that the only real
prayer uttered iu all that time was a silent
one and composed of fpur words; ???God
hasten Rolf???s footsteps.??? Whenever I see
the play of ???Damon and Pythias,??? I am re
minded of that fearful scene, continued I)r.
Clark. ???At the end of ou hour and a half
there was an uproar, and the discontent had
almost become a riot, when a voice cried:
???Here comes Dr. Hold??? My uncle did not
hear or heed the new tumult that now arose,
but prayed on,becoming weaker each minute.
Soon the horseman approiched near enough-
to be recognized, and the doctor dashed up to
the very loot of the scaffold,scattering people
right and left. He was too weak to speak or
move, but a man in the crowd snatched a
document from his band and mounting on
the back of the horse, shouted: "Reprieve!
Reprieve!??? It was so, and that is how Carr
and Smith were saved.??????Philadelphia
Times,
Ranch Like in Texas ???The truth of the
statement that "one-half the world does not
knowhow the other half lives,???was never so
fully impressed upon my mind, until 1
became acquainted with, those who care for
and herd stieap. ...
Iu the great cities there is a constant push
and strife, each looking o???t for his own in
terest; neighbor pushing neighbor to the
wall in the grand scramble for wealth and
position; and m this great struggle wearing
out energiesand even life itself to be the suc
cessful one. Some ono says: ???Life in a great
city resembles a microscopic view of a drop
of water where you see the larger insects de
vouring the weaker ones, and all scrambling
and diving in their efforts to catch their
prey or escape from their pursuers.
On n ranch the opposite aspect of lifo is
seen. No striving, no worry, but everything
peaceful and quiet. . ,
A ranch is tne herder???s house and the sheds
and pens for shelter of the sheep; the range
is the land surrounding those on which the
sheep graze, although I believe the word
ranch is generally applied to the buildings
and ground taken together. The word camp
is olten used hero when speaking of the
herder's house.
Sheep herders arc men of peculiar disposi
tion. They must be to follow such an occu
pation. Rising early, before daylight in the
winter, he cooks and cats his meagro break
fast, takes bis Hack on the range and from
that until sundown follows them as they
graze. At sundown the sheep aro driven
Some, fed and left in tho sheds for night.
Ho gets his supper, smokes his pipe and goes
to bed, unless a visitor happens to drop in
when he chats for awhile. This routine ho
follows month after month, varied only by
the lambing and shearing seasons, when,
having extra help, there is more excitement
The work is not difficult if the sheep are
well, but if sick, thsy require attention at
night, and then the work becomes quite
tiresome. Housekeeping ou ranches is of tne
simplest kind; no scrubbing of doors or
scouring of pens; none of the little worry
ing ceres to which housekeepers with more
extensive establishments are subjected..The
few dishes used era easily washed; the tloor
la sometimes scrubbed; the bed being a
wooden bunk, that is, some plauks nailed to
tbe wall. Wltn a mattress and blankets for
bedding is easily cared for. His food is
easily prepared, and of the sl^pleEt kind.
Coffee without milk, corn bread, bacon,
molasses, potatoes, and occasionally dried
apples Vegetables and fruit being scarce in
this part of the world, even during spring
and summer, are luxuries not to be thought
of These things aro scarce because rarmers
prefer to raise tho staples corn, oats, wheat
and cotton, because they sell teadily and
are leas trouble to raise than garden vegeta-
b 'You might supposo that the herder would
Improve his time and add to Ids stock of
knowledge while following his sheep to the
range by reading; but I have not met one
ret that does so. Those who have any atn-
niliou that way seldom follow the occupation
for any longtlt of time. I know of one
herder hero who is a uaturalist, studying the
habits ot the insects he meets with while
following bis flock. , , i ,
These men pay little attention to dress, and
-et they are governed more or lus by the
fashion of their class. To have a broad,
brimed, ligbt-colored felt hat with leather
bind, to secure it from being blown away by
the strong winds of our prairies; a pair of
high-heeled top boots, long enough so that
the pants may he worn inside; a slicker, that
is an oil cloth coat, and a large pair of spurs
ta?obain the height o fashion. It makes
little difference ns to cleanliness of face or
'"jetgTa tberaddle at least two-third. of
their time, these men become the most grace
ful ot riders; sitting on their horses like
statues, they ride with an case and grace of
motion that city folks are entirely unae-
mainted with. The riding masters of St.
Louis might gain a lew useful P" 1 " 1 " f ??? n >
tbe sons of these Texas prairies. Whi e they
cannot be surpassed as riders they are not the
most, but certainly very awkward walkers.
The lambing and shearing seasons are ti e
two important events in ranch life. The
lambs begin to come in I-cbruary and the
season lasts for live or six weeks. Extra hands
are necessary during this time, for with a
Hock of from eight hundred to ??ne???h<m????m -
two men are always required to bo in attend
ance during tho night. Strange to sav, tome
of tbe ewes disown their lambs, aai then
then tbe lterdcr by various meens compels
them to do so. One way is to put the refrac
tory ewe into a small pen where she is
obHgcd to stand still until the lamb has
nursed a number of times, when she gives no
further trouble. When lambs are motherless
other ewes are induced to take them, or if
this cannot be done, they must be raised by
the bottle. Sometimes a norther strike! us,
just in the middle of lambing time, and then
many lambs are lost by being chilled.
When chilled they are wrapped up and put
into the oven and soma warm milk poured
down their throats. In most cases when
tbisisdone in time, they.come around oil
right. The ewes with lambs are separate!,
from the rest of the Hock, and must have a
SDeciai herder until the whole flock has
lambed, when tbev all run together again.
The shearing season comes about May.
Mea who make a business of shearing areem-
Dloyed for this work. They shear from 25 to
30 per day, depending, of coarse, on the
heaviness and closeness of tbe fleece, njgn j
grade merinos shear on an average nine -
pounds. The fleeces are burred and then |
packed in sacks holding from 250 to 30n :
pounds. Barring consists in picking out all |
burrs and other substances that may adhere
to the wool. Good flock masters are a ways
careful to see that their fleeces are always
perfectly free from tags and dirt before send
ing to market. During the winter oats, corn,
cotton-seed meal, the last being a good mil*
producer, are fed. Hay is given to the sheep
when kept in by inclement weather.
It baa been my good fortune to see a flock
of thoroughbreds, owned bp J. D. Kevan. an
enterprising, energetic Englishman. w hota
untiring in his efforts to improve the Texea
breed of sheep. In this flock is a celebrated
ewe. who took the $1,000 pitas in Australia
for fleece, and she ie certainly a beauty, with
her smooth, ever contour of form and magni-
ficeut coat of wool. Among the rams of this
same herd is the celebrated Banker, who
shears thirty-eight pounds. Ho has a eplen-
did fleece???soft, silky, long and thick. These
are the aristocrats ot the sheep race, tracing
their ancestry back for hundreds of years.
Those who have any sentimental ideas of
the beauty of lambs formed from certain nur
sery stories of their infant days, would have
them ail dispelled by visiting a sheep ranch
during lambing time. I do not know of any
animal so arfkward, except it is a young calf.
They seem all legs, heads and joints, and
walk much as a boy does on stilts,???George
Langton, in St. Louis Repubiicsn.
Lost in a Tbacklms Fobest.???A despatch
from Wausau, Wisconsin, dated November
23, says: ???The terrible experiences of Ole
Nelson in the great Wisconsin forest have
added to the horror with which the stupen
dous solitude is regarded. Nelson went out
into the woods in company With a friend to
look up some land whish he had purchased.
The men located the land, aud while Nelson
determined to remain a day or two to inspeot
the timber, his friend left him and set out
for Eagle, n little town on the railroad.
They had taken tho precaution,as is usual on
such expeditious, to blaze their path, and
neither had any fear that they would not
be able to flud their way out. Nelson???s friend
reached Eagle in safety and went off on
another errand. On his return, finding that
Nelson had not put in appearance, toe be
came alarmed and organized a search. Word
woe sent to all the lumber camps that a man
was lost, and several searching parties aet
out. ,
The party from Eagle took the trail by
which Nelson had entered the forest and
proceeded without much difficulty to the
spot where he and his friend had separated.
Finding no trace of him there, they retraced
tbeirstep9 until they came to a place in the
undergrowth which showed signs of having
been recently broken down. A careful In
vestigation of the surroundings and a close
inspection of tho ground cunviil cd tbe
searchers that it was here that Nelson had
gone astray. Well provided with compass-
cs, pikes, and saws, the parly pushed on,
tracing the footsteps of Nelson, for some dis
tance, then losing them altogether.
After lighting their way almost aimlessly
through the thicket without discovering the
slightest clue to the missing man, they were
about to give up the search end make their
out when they came upon footprints again,
???A light snow had fallen two or three days
before, and enough had sifted through tbe
tree tops to cover the ground with a light
coating. They followed the trail eagerly,
keeping up a constant hallooing, and, though
sometimes the footprints were faint, they
managed to keep them in view until night
fall. Being compelled to go int t camp, tuey
waited with patience tor morning. In the
the night some time they were awakened by
a furions storm, and toward morning rain
began to fall in torrents. When daylight
appeared they found tliemselvea thoroughly
drenched, and the trail which they had
hoped to follow was obliterated. Filled with
tho gloomiest forebodings, they concluded
to abandon tbe search, and returned as speed
ily as possible to Eagle.
A few days after they bad reached home,
and when everybody had given Nelson up
ns dead, word came fromoueof the lumber
camps near by that tbe lost man bad strayed
in there in a pitiful condition. He was al
most dead from cold and hunger, and his
reason was completely overthrown. He
talked in the most incoherent manner of hie
adventures, and was able to give no account
of himself. The poor fellow???a clothing hum
in shred >; his lacerated and bleoding HesL
and Ills terrible emaciation told tllh story of
his sufferings, however, more eloquently
than wordi. He was tenderly cared for anil
clothed, and in the course of a day or two
was seat to his home where it was found
that his feet and hands had been severely
frozen, and that his mental aoerratlou woe of
tbe moat serious character. Under the
treatment tbathehes received since he was
taken home and he hoe become less excitable
and bopea are entertained . that he mayt
eventually regain hie reason.
His hallucination takes the form of fright
and in his distorted vision all tbe horrora 6f
his long and aimless wanderings in the heart
of the great forest are ever before him.
