INDIANS AND STAGE COACH
VIII Likely Be Feature of Semi-Cen-
tenniaI Parade.

Arrangements are being made by the
Kansas Semicentennial for the use of
an old time stage coach and also a
band of Pottawatomie Indians in the
parade of the semicentennial celebra-
ton in September. An effort will also
be made to secure VIM. Cody, known
as Buffalo Bill to come here in per-
son.
The Indians will likely come from
the Pottawatomie reservation. The
stage coach will likely be secured from
the Wells Fargo Express company. The
coach will be of the type that was used
to cross the Kansas plains 80 years ago
before the advent of the railroad. It
will occupy a prominent place in the
parade.
