Few Americans have made their name so well known, both here and abroad, as the picturesque scout of the middle 19th century. William Frederick Cody for that was his real name was born in Scott' County, Iowa, in 1846. While only a boy he began his career as a scout on the great plains and mountain regions. Indians, often hostile, then roamed over the praries. In 1860, when 14 years of age, he became one of the riders of the famous "Pony Express." The express car ried letters from Stj. Joseph, Mo., which was the furthest western rail road point, to San Francisco. The letters were carried by swift riders on horseback. Each rider was expected to cover 75 miles a day. It was a per ilous service. Many a rider, victim of hunger, thirst or Indians, left his bones whiteing on the praries. The price for carrying letters from St Joe" to "Frisco" was $5 per half ounce at first, but this was reduced v later to $2.50. Four hundered horses were used in the service. It required 18 days at best to get a letter to San Francisco. This, however, was some improvement over the Panama route which required more than three weeks. The fastest time made by the Pony ExpresB was 17 days 17 hours, when it carried to San Francisco a copy of President Lincoln's first inaugural ad dress. There were stations and re lays 25 miles apart. Many of the station-keepers as well as the "riders" t T J? i were sxain Dy xnaians. Boy Was Invaluable It was in this perilous service as a rider that the boy Bill Cody began his career. Many an encounter he had with ths Indians, and many narrow escapes from death at their hands. After a while they learned to know and respect him, for he always kept faith with them. He treated them with fairness and friendliness as well as with firmness and courage. Soon the young scout-rider became a med ium by which the Government could communicate with the Indians and reason with them; for they would lis ten with respect to the brave and handsome white youth when they ; would close their ears to the voice of any other "paleface." His service to the Government soon became too valuable to permit him to remain a rider for the Pony Express. He was little more than 16 when he graduated into the Government ser vice as a scout and guide. He knew the habits and haunts of the tfndians, i tore Conn In Every Detail the Leading Store of Warren County and Vioinity COAT SUETS COATS IReducedl S Black Coats at, . and something of their various lan- How He Got His Nickname During the Civil War young Cody enlisted in the Seventh Kansas Cal vary regiment. It was at the end of the war, at the age of 20, that he re ceived the nickname of "Buffalo Bill," by which he became best known all over the world. The Kansas Pacific Railroad was then under construction. Hundreds of men were working on it, and in that wild region there was great difficulty in getting food for them. Young Cody contracted with the railroad to feed the men. With some scouts to help him he went out on the plains and captured or killed, in 18 months, 4280 buffaloes. This furnished abundant meat for the rail road laborers; and "Buffalo Bill" he became to them and to the world. As Scout and Showman He continued for years as Govern ment scout and guide, and took part in several Indian wars. In the battle of Indian Creek he killed Yellow Hand, the Cheyenne chief, in hand-to-hand combat. It is said of him that he took part in more Indian battles and fights than any other man. In 1872 he was elected a member of the Nebraska Legislature, but it is not true, as sometimes stated, that he was a member of Congress. Though often called "Colone" he had the title of general in the Nebraska and Wy oming militia. The last 30 years of his life were devoted to his "Wild West Show." This was a successful attempt to bring the life of the plains to the people of the Eastern States. He took the show to Europe several times, where he was received with great favor. Gen. Cody was the author of a book, "The Great Salt Lake Trail." He married, at 20, Louisa Frederici. In his youth and prime Buffalo Bill was strikingly handsome. His dark wavy hair was worn long and rippled over his shoulders like a girl's. Gen. Cody's body is to be placed in a tomo newn irom tne solid rocK at the top of Lookout Mountain, Near Denver, Col.

I I I J s s I I 1 C3 q2 I I'lWIWI UH'tUT' S ' YORK ITEMS I've been thinking up my blessing's, I've been suramin' up my woes, But I ain't got the conclusion some would naturally suppose; Why, I quit a-counting trouble 'fore I had a half a score, While the more I counted my bless ings, I keep finding more and more. There's been things that wa'n't Exactly as I thought thed'd ought to be, An' I've often growled at Providence for hot a pettin' me! But I hadn't stopped :to reckon what the other side had been How much o' good an' blessin' had been thickly crowded in. For there's been a gift o' sunshine after every shower o'tears, An' I've found a load o'laughter scat tered all along the years, If the thorns have pricked me some times, I've good reason to sup- -pose Love has hid 'em often from me 'Neath the rapture of the rose! So I'm goin' to still be thankful for The sunshine and the rain, For the joy that's made me happy;. For the purgin done by pain; For the love o little children; For the friends that have been true; For the guiding Hand that's led me every threaten in' danger through!
