Black Wolf S Bad Heart

copyright. 1906. by G, III Sutcllfre.l
The Cheyennes had fought the white
soldiers for fifteen years. Chief Walk
by-Night had started out 10 the belief
that there we're only about 5000 white
nen in all America. and as soon as he
rould get them together he would fin
ssh them of, but after many years he

When the first blades Of green grass
were seen on the southern hillsldes
word was sent out to the subchiefs to
gather in council All responded but
Black Wolf He was a fiery tempered
young man Of twenty five. II had 50
happened that he and his band had
taken all the scalps gathered in during
the year past, and he was ambitious,
fearless and great halter. He wanted
war all the time He had plans to
round up all the white soldiers and
make grand finish Of them Let the
Cheyennes perform some daring deed
and they might count on an alliance
with at least three other tribes, Black
Wolf claimed to be III and asked for a
few days delay.
On the bluffs on the north bank Of
Medicine creek the white soldiers were
building fort. It was within the
Cheyenne territory and was another
Insult to them. Black Wolf had seen
the men at work the previous fall.
During the winter work would have
been suspended, but now that sp>ng
had come the white men would be busy
again, and again the white topped wag
ons would roll across the plains.
Those wagons, as he knew, contain
ed four, meat, firearms, powder and
bullets, blankets. cooking utensils,
clothing and many other things needed
by his tribe. II he could run OFF Eve or
six of them, with perhaps half hum
dred mules and horses. the wealth OF
the tribe would be restored twice over.
The feat would be daring one, and
one to challenge admiration and bring
about alliances. Walk by Night would
no longer cover his face anu talk OF
peace, but bis voice would be for war
and bis face painted to strike terror 10
the hearts of bis enemies
1t was a golden opportunity for Black
Wolf He had less than fifty warriors
In his band, but all were enthusiastic
and sure OF success. 1t was ride OF
seventy-fve miles from the camp to
the bluffs where the fort was building
but this was less than two days ride
even on the half starved ponies The
medicine man made his medicine and
pronounced il good, and away rode the
young men. The soldiers were busy
and wagon train was crawling over
the plains. The Indians could not have
asked for the situation to be bettered
They lost little time in pushing in. The
last six wagons were cut off by bril-
liant dash, seven OF the escort killed
