Mose refused to allow his shining, proud-necked stallion to be roped and thrown, and asked the boys to help drive him into a strong corral, together with five or six other horses. This was done, and stripping himself as for a race, Mose entered the coral and began walking rapidly round and round, following the excited animals.

I want you both to come and help me get three I've roped down the draw a couple of miles below here." Douglas explained the accident. "My gawd, Charleton, don't you know enough not to tackle a bull on foot?" "How'd I know there was a bull around?" retorted the wounded man. "I dropped my rope and when I dismounted to pick it up, he came after me like a Kansas cyclone."

In due time all the horses were ridden and driven back to camp, where a temporary corral had been roped off in a niche of the slope. "Wal, fellars, it's find a hoss you haven't rid before," sang out Blinky, "an' everyone fer himself." There was a stout, round-barreled buckskin that Pan's father had his eye on. "Don't like his looks, Dad," warned Pan.

We examined, with other tourists, at a shilling apiece historic mansions with endless drawing-rooms, halls, libraries, galleries filled with family portraits; elaborate, formal bedrooms where famous sovereigns had slept, all roped off and carpeted with canvas strips to protect the floors.

I formed the caravan in marching order, presently, and after riding down the line to see that it was properly roped together, gave the command to proceed.

"Why, I reckon you'll have to do your own guessing, Kid unless it might be Ashton did it." "That's one leg roped," said Gowan. "Can you guess why he'd be writing to that engineer?" "Lord, no. He may have the luck to know him. Mr. Blake is a mighty big man, judging from all accounts; but money stands for a lot in the cities and back East, and Ashton's father is one of the richest men in Chicago.

"If I'd thought," said Spratt angrily in the privacy of the Orpheum office, "that you were sucker enough to get roped in for the full season, I'd have tossed you out of the running for this week. This game is a bigger gamble than the Stock Exchange. The smartest producers in the business never know when they have a winner or a loser.

"Silver-tips, cinnamon, black; and I roped a cub onced." "O-h! I never shot a bear." "You'd ought to try it." "I'm a-going to. I'm a-going to camp out in the mountains. I'd like to see you when you camp. I'd like to camp with you. Mightn't I some time?" Billy had drawn nearer to Lin, and was looking up at him adoringly.

Belding and those rangers have made you the real thing the real Western goods.... What I want to know is all about the girl." "Well, Laddy swears she's got your girl roped in the corral for looks." "That's not possible. I'll have to talk to Laddy.... But she must be a wonder, or Dick Gale would never have fallen for her.... Isn't it great, Dick? I'm here! Mercedes is well safe! You've got a girl!
