His Famous Wild West Exhibition
Coming Soon-Cheap Excursion
Rates on all Railroads.
Lieutenant General John NJ. Schoneld, retired
and recalled from private life to act as military
advisor to President Mckinley during the war
with SPAIN said recently: Whether this war
be of brief OF prolonged duration it has done
one thing of incalculable value to the country.
and that is it has aroused the patriotism OF the
people which lies too long dormant in times of
peace. In fact, almost the only institution to
excite the military spirit in the youth of the
land has been a show-Buffalo Bill's Wild
West-and in that respect Col Codys exhibit
ton is a real institution, rather than a show.
Was ever another such compliment paid to
any sort of an amusement exhibition? When
its character is understood, Gen. Sehoield's
compliment is justified. 1t is distinctively an
International military tournament of real
soldiers from the cavalry and artillery of Eng
land Germany Russia Cuba and the United
States. over 100 Indian chiefs and warriors
from the six great tribes show the savage
soldier; Mexican Vaqueros, Guachos of Argen-
tine Arabs and Moors of Asia and Africa have
also seen service in the armies of their respect
i've countries. The band of Cuban veterans,
wounded and manned until their fighting days
are ended, still can sit in the saddle and show
the stamp of men who have fought so valiantly
for free Cuba A superb military spectacle,
Clusters Last Battle produced with splendid
special scenery and hundreds of soldiers and
savages in mimic combat as realistic as the real,
is still another thing that will excite in every
one the desire to see the greatest OF all exh1bl-
tions when 1T appears at Fort Smith Sept %.
Excursion rates will be made on all lines OF
travel TO the Wild West on that day.
