BUFFALO BILL
Took Long and Dangerous Ride When but
aYOuth.

To American boys, we dare say, the
name Buffalo Bill' suggests Wild
West shows and thrilling scenes of
cowboy life. But Buffalo BilP' has
not always experienced such harmless
excitement as he now presents to the
admiring youth of the country. Be-
fore he became Snowman he was
really and truly wild WesterneT, a
galloper over deserts, a buffalo slayer
and an enemy to blood-thirsty Indians.
After the Civil War William F. Cody
CBuffalo Bill') was made chief of the
scouts by General Sheridan, although
the young man was only 20 years of
age. General Sheridan had hastened
to Western Kansas to prevent threat,
ened Indian uprising. Later the Gen
eral. in his autobiography, tells why
he put Cody at the head of his scouts,
and incidentally tells of one of Cody's
greatest feats on horseback-that of
riding $50 miles in less than 60 hours
among hostile Indians and all sorts of
dangers. General Sheridan says:
Cody had lived from boyhood on
the plains and passed every experience
-herder, hunter, pony express rider,
stage driver, wagon master in the
Quartermaster's Department and scout
of the army, and was first brought to
my notice by distinguishing himself
in bringing me an important dispatch
from Ft. Larned to Ft. Hays, a dis.
tance of G5 miles. The dispatch in
formed me that the Indians near Larn
ed We're preparing to decamp and this
intelligence required that certain Or
ders should be carried to FIT. Dodge, 95
miles south of Hays. This, too, being
a particularly dangerous route-sever-
al couriers having been killed on it
it was impossible to get one of the
various 'Petes, Jacks, or Jims' hang
ing around Hays City to take my com
munication. Cody, learning of the
strait | was in, manfully came to my
rescue, and proposed to make trip to
Dodge, though he had just finished his
long and perilous ride from Larned. |
gratefully accepted his offer, and after
a short rest he mounted fresh horse
and fastened on his journey. At
Dodge he took some sleep and then
continued on to his post, FIT. Larned,
with more dispatches. After resting
at Larned he was again in the saddle
with tidings for me at FIT. Hays"
