fit. Paul, Nov. 8 J. A. F rrl of
Medora wan lreMent'i I to M?veh
guide on tho otiaion of his flrt
Buffalo hunt.
Mr. Iloowvelt'" fir-t trip to Mf
flora wan nile In the full of 1HH3 "
ayn rVrri. "At that Hum? rowll
tlonnatlhe crowing of the Little
IUurl Hlvr w re distinctly th
of the frontier.
Th N'orthi-rn I'acific cmni ruc
tion cr.w had a short time In fore
bridged the Little M.our), "d
Holdieni wire statiotu-d at a U-ur-rary
cantonment In the Hid Luid
to protect the advance guard of the
railroad from the attacks of Indian.
The buffalo had l-en iW-reaxlng
under the slaughter by the o' hunt
ers, but a few of them were to be
found on the headwaters of the
water cour flowing Into the Little
Missouri, fifty or nlxty miles from
Meilora or, as It was then called,
Llatle Missouri. It was buffalo that
brought Mr. Itoosevelt to the Bad
Lnd, and his Inve-.tments In cat
tle there were the result of his ob
servations while on his first hunt
ing trip.
'It was a pniHiec't that would
have dismayed a less energetic and
determined young man than Mr.
ltojHevoU when ho first stepped
from the train on a .September day
in 1H83. The buffalo ranges were
fifty miles away over a country ex
ceedingly rough and unbroken and
to lie reached only after much hard
ship and exposure. Haddlu horses
were few and untrustworthy and
camp life full of hardship.
Mr. Itoosevelt was then a rather
thin young man, plainly dressed,
and when he asked me to go buffalo
hunting with him I was surprised,
indeed. I was considerably In doubt
as to whether he would stand the
trip. It meant lots of hardship and
hard work to kill a buffalo at that
time.
But there was something In the
set of the young man's face that told
me he was bound to go, and finally
I consented to bo his guide. We
atarted out with a hunting outfit to
the head of Bacon Creek, about fifty
miles from the railroad crowning.
Mr. Roosevelt was on horseback, and
where he learned to ride, I don't
know, but he rode as well a or bet
ter than I did and could stand Just
as much knocking about.
In making or breaking camp he
was handy as a pocket in a shirt.
and seemed to know just what to do
On the first night out, when we
were twenty-five or thirty mllea
from a settlement, we went Into
camp on the open prairie, with our
saddle blankets over us, our horses
picketed and the picket ropes tied
about the horns of our saddles, which
we used for pillows.
In the middle of the night there
was a rush, our pillows were swept
out from under our heads and our
horses went tearing off over tho
prairie, frightened by wolves. Away
they tore and we heard the saddles
thumping over the ground after
them
"Mr. Roosevelt was up and off in
a minute aftwr them. Together we
cha-ed thoe frightened horses over
the prairie until they slackened
speed and we caught up with them.
The night was dark and there was
little to guide us on our return.
Roosevelt's bumb of locality was
good and he led the way back to
camp straight as a die.
On the followii g day we reached
our hunting grounds and for aeveral
days travelled about without being
able to get a shot at a buffalo. On
the fourth or fifth day out, I think
it was, while we were riding along,
our horses pricked up their ears, as
they will do when big game is near,
and I told Mr. Roosevelt there was
a buffalo close at hand.
We dismounted and advanced to
a big washout Dearby, peered over
its edge, and there stood a huge
buffalo bull, calmly feeding and un
aware of our presence.
'lilt him where that patch of
red shows on his side,' said I, and
you've got him.'
Roosevelt was cool as a cucumber,
took careful aim and fired. Out
came the buffalo from the washout,
with blood pouring from his mouth
and nose.
You've shot him,' I shouted,
and so it proved, for the buffalo
plunged a few steps and fell.
'It was on this trip that Mr.
Roosevelt, with that quick deter
mination that has characterized him,
saw the possibilities of the business
of maturing Texas cattle on the
broad ranges of the Bad Lands.
While in the buffalo hunting camp
ha sent word to S. M. FerrU and A.
W. Merrifleld, then located at what
is known as the Chimney Butte
Ranch, seven miles from Medora on
the Little Missouri River, asking
them if they would consider a prop
osition to engage in the cattle bus!
ness with him, if he furnished the
animals to slock the ranch, they to
assume charge of them while on the
range.
The result 'was that Roosevelt
deposited to their credit funds sum
cient to buy 500 head of steers and
thus become a ranchman. The
animals were bought that fall and in
the spring the holdings were in
creased to several thousand head.
The Maltese cross was chosen as the
Drand and soon came to be well
known on the ranges.
A second ranch was established
on the river forty miles north of
Medora and was known as the Elk
horn. This was in the fastnesses of
an extremely wild and unbroken
country. Its location and surround
ings made it popular with Mr.
Roosevelt.
Deer abounded on all sides In
the wild battes round about was to
be found that wariest of big game
animals, the mountain sheep. No
better illustration of the patience
and persistence of Theodore Roose
velt la afforded than the success with
which he was able to stalk the moun
tain ram. He would crawl for hours
o get within distance of a moan-
in sheep, and when his rifle crack-
ar.d the usual force of riders. CattU;
growing In those dys was on the
bonanza plan. Thousands upon
thousands of Texas steers were turn
ed out upon the ranges to seek their
own suMe anw from th range grata.
Twle each year the country was
uorked by the round-up rulflts.
Iti Iproelty was a practical principle
among the cattle men, and each
round up outfit, no matter to what
.... a a a a
company It belonged, wornea an me
t-dt'le It encountered on Its trip
Each day the wagon moved a
dh'anceot twenty or thirty miles
along the main water course. Morn
ing and afternoon th riders circled
the country for a distance of forty
or fifty miles, bringing Into camp
all the cattle found.
At noon ard in the evening the
calves were branded, the beeves cut
out cf the main herd and close herd
ed with the wagon until some ship
ttinir ooint was reached, and the
day's work ended for the cowboy
with a night guard of two hours
about the beef herd, to guard against
tttampede. It was the hardest kind
ofwi'tk, but Mr. Roueevelt deter
mined to gain his knowledge of it
from experience.
I want to work with my wag
on as a cowboy he said to his fore
man, H. M. Ferri, and I don't want
to be shown any favors. I want
you to treat me Just as any other
cowb .y with the wagon, and I'll
manage to get along.'
'So Mr. Roosevelt worked for a
part of a season as a cowboy. He
had hi own string of horses and
they were as ugly and ill-tempered
as the majority of cow-horses. He
was not a bronco breaker as he has
lxjen pictured to be, and he took no
unnecessary chances in mounting or
endeavoring to tame an especially
ugly horse. But he did not shrink
from riding his own horses when
they cut up the customary capers of
mustangs, and although he was some
times thrown and on one or two oc
casions nretty oauiy uruineu anu
hurt, he stuck to his mounts until
he had mastered them."
'He learned more and faster by
observation than any man I ever
saw," said his ranch foreman, 3. M.
Ferris, in speaking of his season on
the range. "He learned to rope his
own horse when it was time to get
a mount in the morning. He watch
ed the men throw and brand calves
and he got to be as good a calf
wnstler as any of them.
"He was among the first up in the
morning, took his trick with the
men in the morning and afternoon
and stood his two hours guard over
the herd at night. I never heard
him complain of his bargain, and
when he finished his work with the
outfit he had the good will of every
man in camp, as a good, whole-souled
companionable comrade."
Mr. Roo-evelt had a strict, sense
of justice. On one occasion h fol
lowed two men who had stolen a
boat from his place, arrested them
and assisted in their prevention.
On another occasion he followed
cattle thieves, and as deputy sheriff
took them after their arrest a long
distance over land to Dickinson and
lodged them in jail.
