Buffalo Bill in Hearty Sympathy
with American Boys.
Writes to Them Regularly and Tells
Them How to Regulate Their
Lives-H0w He Got the Name
That Made Him Famous.

In the cool of the early morning
Buffalo Bill sat in the parlor of his
private car writing letters. He was
just finishing the fifteenth when his
visitor entered.
''Be seated for moment" said the
famous scout to Philadelphia Press
reporter. "These letters are to my
boys. I always finish them first thing
in the morning, before beginning work
with my secretary"

to my boys. have thousands of them
scattered all over the country and l
write to them regularly. It has been
my practice for years, ever since l
started in the show business. l get
from Is to 20 letters day from boys
in all parts of the union, and some
from abroad. These are quite separate
from letters from autograph collect
ors. l get about 200 a week of those.
and answer them at my leisure, or
sometimes not at all.
"But my boys never neglect. They
are the most genuine letters re-
ceive-expressions of admiration, es-
TEEN and even affection. Many OF
these lads have seen me. The great
majority of them have not. Nearly
all of them have read about me-my
life as guide on the plains, as scout
in the Indian wars, in the army, as
Snowman all over the world-all sorts
of things. "
"For example, here is letter from
a boy in New England who asks me
where I got my name. l have ex-
planned to him, briefly, that a firm
of contractors for the Kansas Pacific
railroad paid me $500 month to sup
ply their laborers with buffalo meat.

haps, that it would take three godfa-

McKinncy's NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. three
miners, the now famous trio who dis
covered gold on the Anvil and who or
ganized the Pioneer Mining company
Messrs. Lindeburg, Lindebloom and
Brynteson.
The day chosen for the christening
was Sunday. 1t dawned radiantly
cloudless-a typical Alaskan summers
day. The little settlement where the
great event was to transpire awoke to
the realization that it was day of
special import to the colony and that
it must be up and doing in order to re.
ceive the expected guests.
In recalling the experiences of that
eventful day Miss Mckinney says:
"As the benediction was pronounced
this young man looked up, his blue eyes
full of baby wonder. his mouth
wreathed in baby smiles, and softly
cooed what seemed to us to be an
Amen or, at least, signified his au-
gust babyship's approval of the cere-
monies and appreciation of the homer
of being the first child ever christened
on Anvil creek"
Among the many gifts received by
Master Lampe on this suspicious oc-
casion were three staked claims in the
Klondike. given by the three godfa-
Tiers. These claims were considered
nice little presents, the value of which
was problematical. A pleasant feature
of the gifts was the wide fields of
speculation which they afforded. Per-
haps they were not worth the paper
on which the deeds were written-per-
haps they represented a gold mine:
Other presents afforded apparently
Just as much chance of surprising
realization.
The unexpected happened! Within
short time these little claims made

then great, and now have yielded con-

to Baby Lampe.

two years, in Master Fritoff Vladimar
Lampe who knows but that we behold
the coming Croesus OF America!
When the claims yielded such rich
harvest, the parents of Baby Lampe
did not forget his godmother, Miss
Margaret Mckinney, but ordered made
for her necklace and pair of bangles
composed of little gold nuggets taken
from Baby Lampe's mines.

PENALTIES OF FAME.
Writers Of Fiction Are the Victims
of Brain Fatigue.
They Are Set ON Edge by Sounds and
Conditions Which Are Hardly
Noticed by Persons In 9th
er Walks Of Life.

Successful novel writing is not an
unmixed evil, if one judges by the pres
mt ill-luck of Miss Mary Johnston, Mrs.
Frances Hodgson Burnett, Miss Mary
Hartwell Catherwood AMI Mrs. Kate
Douglas Virgins.
Each of these has succumbed to
brain fatigue, says the Philadelphia
Press. Each says she will continue to
write as soon as the sanitarium re-
leases its firm grip.
Each of these, except Mrs. Virgins,
has been enjoying the privileges of u
rest cure. And rumor has it that Mrs.
Virgins is on the threshold of sani-
tarium.
One would think that the violent
struggle to be successful might send
women and men to a rest cure, but to
ride to success in golden chariot and
then break down from brain fag is be-
yond the reasoning of those who have
tried and failed.
These writers have been successful
from the start. Why they each have
yielded to fatigue and mental strain
is probably from trying to meet the
demands of an enthusiastic public.
Henry James has explained it all i'll
a recent ghost story, in which he lays
the blame to 'sthe dreadful too much"
in the successful writer's life.
In that story he gives you such a
dramatic and terrible description of
the nervous fatigue that comes from
trying to live up to ones literary repu-
tation, that there is reflected nervous
ness from simply reading it. ..
The youngest and newest of these
successful novelists is Miss Mary John
ston, and it is she who is returning to
sanitarium in Baltimore for the Sec
ond time since Christmas.
She has been suffering with the most
intense headaches. She has done
everything for them except the re-

ing nonconformists to the Dutch Re-
formed church.
Gardener was but two years of age
when he arrived in this country. The
colony of Netherlanders settled in
Michigan and founded the Holland
colonies, which prosperous commun-
tiles still exist.
Mai. Gardener was educated in Hol-
land academy and Hope college and en-
tered West Point Military academy as
a cadet in 1869 and graduated with
honors in 1873. The regiment to which
he was assigned was sent west and the
young soldier took part in the Indian
wars. He was in the campaign of Gen.
Miles against the Arapahoes and
Cheyennes in 1874 and 1875. He also
fought the Utes and Navajoes in
Colorado in 1879.
He served in the Rio Grande district
in Texas in 1881 and in 1890. In the lat
ter year his regiment was removed to
Michigan and he was commissioned
captain of the Nineteenth infantry.
A year later the war department APP
pointed him inspector general OF the
national guard of the state. Maj.
Gardener joined his regiment at Mo-
bile shortly after the breaking out of
the Spanish-American war. He was
offered and accepted the colonelcy Of
the first regiment to leave the state Of
Michigan-the Thirty-frst. The Thir-
ty-first was mustered in May II, 1898,
and sent to Chickamauga. It was
mustered out April II, 1899, at Savan-
nah after the return from Cuba.
The records of the war department
show the regiment to have been one Of
the best in the volunteer service. His
methods of discipline and his per-
sonal character won him great favor
with his men as we'll with his SUI
perior officers. ..
He went into the Philippine service
early in 1900, where he commanded the
Thirtieth infantry. at

Wealth Left. to Rooster.

A wealthy woman, named Silva, re-
Gently died at Lisbon and left her en-
tire property to a rooster. She was
fervid spiritualist, believer in the
TRANSPORTATION Of souls, and imagined
that the soul of her dead husband had
entered the rooster. She caused spe-
cial fowl house to be built and ordered
her servants to- pay extra attention to
their ''master's" wants. The disgust
of her relatives over the will caused
the story to become public, and law
suit might have followed had not one
of the heirs adopted the simple expedi.
ent of having. the wealthy rooster
