THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION: TUESDAY MARCH 25.1884- TWELVE PACES. 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.
