Ha Succeeded in Stealing the Fast est Horse on the Plains. HAT honesty which we know to be the best policy and I which makes us loathe a thief is one of the marks of our civilization and Intel 1 igence. , Eude, unciv ilized people do not love hones* ty as we da Al most all such people have Rome tradi tion or story of very skilful thieving. The best-known story of the kind is among the fairy tales written and col lected by the brothers Grimm. It is a tale of how a horse was stolen while a man was on its back, and how the rider was left in the saddle hanging in the air while the horse was led away. Our North American Indians have many such tales, and some of them are al most as wonderful as this one in the Grimm collection. Our Indians have no such proverb as: "It Is a sin to steal a pin." If they had they would add a line to it, and make it read like this: "It Is a Bin to steal s pin, Dot It matters nanght If you don't get caught" Their whole philosophy with regard to stealing is summed up in the idea that men may not steal from their own people, but that there is no harm in stealing from strangers or enemies pro vided you are not caught at it Among the fierce fighting and hunting red men of the plains, which 1 know most about, the men in one camp or village did not steal from one another, but they did steal from everybody else whenever the got the chance. They gloried in stampeding and running off with the horses of tlfe other camps and tribes, and in plundering white men who were fewer in number than themselves. Cunning and courage were required in successful stealing, and cunning and courage are as much admired by the Indians as ever they were by the 8par tans of old. An interpreter among the Canadian Biackfeet Indians who are of the same tribe as our Biackfeet?told me a story of how that tribe lost the most wonder ful race horse that it ever owned. The plains Indians are very fond of horses, and being addicted to gambling and betting they have always raced their best horses against one another in or der to have an exciting excuse for bet ting. Not very many years ago, in the life time of ^iree Bulls, the present chief of the tribe, the Blackfct owned a wonderfully fast horse. lie was as black as a rainy night, as glossy as a wild duck, as fiery as an angry chief, and so fleet-footed that it seemed as if no horse could beat him in a race. No other horse the Biackfeet owned could eep anywhere near him. and when the Crows, and Bloods and Sarcis, and 8tonies and Gros Ventres tried to beat him with their best horses, this won derful Blackfoot race horse shot by the others as if it was no trouble at all to do so. The Biackfeet were wonderfully proud of this noble horse, lie brought them honor, and, better yet, he brought them riches, because they used to wager all that they had that he would win every race and of course they won 1IE DISCOVERED TIIE SECRET. horses, and blankets, and guns, and skins, and everything that the other Indians put up against this astonishing horse. The neighboring tribes envied the Black feet this splendid horse, and more than one attempt to steal him was made by bold Indians of the other tribes before the Hlackfcet took alarm and resolved to guard him to the very best of their ability. In order to do this they built an extra large tepee of buffalo hide in which to shut the valuable animal up at night And every night two or three yourg braves of the warrior band slept in the tepeo on either side of the race horne, which was tethered to one of the stout side poles of the great tent. When these watchful, light-sleeping braves took the horse in the tent and secured him there, they laced up the slitlike door of_ the tepee tight and fast It would have taken several minutes to undo this fastening from the outside. When this plan was hit upon and car ried out the Hlackfeet not only 1 breathed easier, but they laughed to i themselves. "If anybody wants to ( steal our black beauty,".they thought, "wo would like to see him try it" j They fancied some dog of a Gros Ven- | trc or coward of a Stony crawling in the grass among the common horses of the tribe, and expecting to find the champion pf the plains among tha lot "Let the thieves come," they thought ' ??They will never dream that the great | racer is kept like a warrior, in a tent the sixe of a chiefs tepee, guarded by young men, armed and brave as lions.** Bnt it is the unexpected that always happens, and as the old adage puts it no one is in snch danger as he who j thinks himself secure. While the Black feet were flattering themselves that no one could rob them of their priceless j horse, a young Crow Indian was plan ning to cover himself with savage glory by stealing the animal. He had, at the risk of his life, crawled close to the Black foot camp on more than one night to watch what was done with the won derful beast. Flat on the ground among the tufts of bunch-grass he had wrig gled nearer and nearer to the outer cir cle of tents, only to stop when it seemed to him that the light of some camp-fire must shine on his face if ho crawled further. On one night he watched from one aide of the Blackfoot village; on another he came at the vil lage from another aide. At last he dis covered the secret. He taw the famous horse led In or out of the tepee. That was glory half won for this archthief of the Crows. Now that he knew where the horse was, all that he had to do was to steal him He was all courage and cunning, and he wanted all the other Crows to know it They wonld know it, and they would honor him if he succeeded in his dangerous experiment. On the next night this thief (I wish I had asked for his name) rode boldly across the plains in the very dead of the night until he was close to the Blackfoot camp. Then he dropped off his horse and wriggled like a snake over the grass and into the en emy's village. He crawled pact the outer tepees, and past the next inner circle of tepees, and past the next circle. My! out that was dangerous work to be at Dogs are as plentiful in an Indian village as branches in an or chard, and if one dog saw or heard or smelled the young Crow thief it would have been lucky if he got away alive. He came to the stable-tepee?the great tent where the beautiful horse was tied and guarded. By means of a travois, a sort of "frame that Indiana drag loads upon in place of wagons, he THE FKAT WAS DON*. climbed noiselessly up the side of the tepee. Such caution and such stealth! ness as he must have used to climb up the side of a rickety tent of skins and ] poles can better be imagined than de scribed. His nerves and his muscles were of steel, and he managed to ac complish this task. Reaching the top ! of the tepee, where all the poles branch out in a circle,* like the sides of a wil low basket, he steadied himself and peered down into the tent He could not see the sleeping braves, each with a gun at hand and knife in belt, but he could faintly distinguish the bulky out line of the swift horse that he was after. Lifting his body over the open ing that serves as a chimney for a tepee, and steadying himself and meas uring the distance, he let himself fall. He landed a-st raddle on the horse's back. All the rest that he did was like lightning. With his sklnning-knlfe bare In his hand ho swept the blade past the horse's nose till he felt the hal ter and severed it. Then he urged the animal forward, and with a mighty thrust and sweep he gashed an opening in the side of the tepee from top to bot tom Still prodding the racer with his heels he rode him through the opening and Into the outer air. The feat was done Indlanllke he yelled the war cry of tfie Crows, and thundered away from the Blackfeet village out on the plainB faster than any other India \ be tween Mexico and Canada could ride. And as he rode he heard the pandemo nium in the startled camp behind him. Then he laughed. He had proved him self the cleverest red thief on the plains. Such a whooping and howling and hubbub, such a barking of dogs and screaming of squaws, such a yelling and firing of guns, and, in short, such a riot of noises as was aroused by the Crow thief s warhoop only those who have lived In an Indian camp can Imagine. But all the noise was use less. From that minute the crows owned the fastest Indian horse on the plains, and the Blackfect plotted re venge.?Julian Ralph, in Harper's Young People.
