NE morning we saw an intoxicated cowboy riding a pony at full speed down Commerce Street, with a policeman on horseback, and about a dozen dogs, in close pur- suit. The cowboy was yelling in what he doubtless considered a sociable and good-humored 'way, but which was evidently against the city ordinances. In former times it used to be very fashion- able for hardy frontiersmen to come to San Antonio to amuse themselves. The recreation sometimes took the playful turn of riding into a saloon on a ...mustang, and engaging in target- practice at the lamps, the barkeeper, or any other conspicuous object that happened to strike the eye of the gay and festive rover o'er the flower-bespangled prairies. Ordinarily, however, the searcher for relaxation would be satisfied, for the time being, with galloping at high speed through the streets, and shooting a few times at the dogs that happened to be within range. Unless an officer made himself obtrusive, he was rarely interfered with. The hilarious cowboy did not care to hunt the officer up, and the officer entertained the same sentiments towards the reveller.
