FORSYTHE'S ROUGH RIDERS.
A St0ryl Told By "Buffalo BILL" the
Indian Scout.

w. +. Cody, better known as "Buf-
ialo Bill" contributes the following tale
OF frontier hcroism to the New York
World:
The genesis OF the Rough Rider is
easily determined. The origin OF the
name is apparent to any one who has
roughed it in the West.
1t was l who coined the term Rough
Rider, and l am pleased to know it is
an expression destined to live in Ameri-
can history, made everlasting by the
gallant regiment that assumed the name
and fought so bravcly in the American
Spanish war.
Rough is an expressive English word
and nowhere is it more expressive than
as used among the people OF the far
West. Hard knocks seem to stand out
all over the word. 1t is suggestive OF
hardship and discomfort.
If any people ever experienced hard
ships in this world, ever had rough
times of it, they were the men who
carried the messages between military
posts in the Wild West in carly frontier

ANTHONY KELLY'S WILL.
How His Great Property Will Be Dis
tributed.

The will of the late Anthony Kelly,
filed for probate last week, disposes Of
ali estate estimated to be worth $4,000,
although it is extremely probable that
the total will be found to exceed this
sum considerably. Mrs. Kelly is made
executrix, but is empowered to entrust
the active work connected with that
position to any one of her daughters
should she see fit to do So The bulk
of the estate, Of course, goes to the
immediate family, although about $15,-
ooo is left to various Catholic benevolent
institutions, and $4,000 is divided
among four nonresident relatives.
The entire estate outside of these be-
quests is left to the widow, in trust, the
entire income to go to her until 1910,
when, if she still survives, she is to be
given absolutely one-fourth of the prop
crty. Twelve-twentieths is to be divided
equally between. Mrs. Corrigan, Mrs.
James F. Blaine, Miss Agnes Kelly and
Miss Bernadette Kelly, daughters; while
the income from the remaining three
twentieths is left to Miss George Kelly,
tep-daughter, the property itself to be
divided equally among the others at
her death. Should Mrs. Kelly die be-
fore 1910 her share is to be divided
among the daughters equally
The will provides that each of the
married daughters is to have the right
to a flat in the Swineford apartment
building free of charge as long as they
wish; and that the unmarried daughters
may have one flat between them if they
so desire. The unimproved property be-
longing to the estate is to be sold at the
discretion OF the executrix, and from
each $4,000 realized in this way, $1,000
requests are to be made to the Roman
Catholic Orphan Asylum for Boys, the
House OF the Good Shepherd, while the
Little Sisters of the Poor and the Coun-
Gil OF St. Vincent de Paul are to have
$500 each.
The proceeds from a $4,000 life in
surance policy are divided as follows:
One thousand dollars each to Kate Kel-
ly and Loretta Kelly of New Orleans,
nieces; $1,000 to Francis J. Kelly Of
New York, nephew, and the balance to
be invested for the benefit OF Ellen Cor
ncy, an aunt, and at her death to be
turned over to Archbishop Ireland to
be invested until it shall amount to $1o,-
600, when it is to be used to found a
school for boys here in Minneapolis, the
school to be operated by the Christian
Brothers. A codicil to the will leaves
ST 900 to the convent in St. Paul.
