Columbia, Mo.-Head's Fort, a
stronghold of the pioneer days, which

building up of this part of the state,
is to be marked by big granite
marker, if the efforts started by the
Columbia Chapter of the D. A r. is

Santa Fe trail, for which the last
legislature appropriated money for
the erection of suitable markers at his
toric points. The western half of the
highway has been marked and monu-
ments are to be put on the eastern
half with the money appropriated.
Heads Fort is near Rocheport, on
the Missouri river, the second post
office established in Boone county.
The fort was erected in 1916 and
from that date began the settlement
of Boone county. 1t was the rallying
point of all settlers for miles and
often in case of alarm when Indians
approached the women and children
lived for days inside its walls. It
was also the trading center for this

Beatrice ran fast as she could, reached
the house, slammed down the cellar
doors and set the heavy oaken bars
across the heavy p1anks. Then she
ran into the house, locked and bolted
the door leading into the cellar and
sat down to cry.
1t was only as a relief to her over
wrought excitement that the tears
came, for Beatrice felt fairly trium-
phant She had controlled her fright,
she had Gagged the enemy. What an
exploit to write to Meta about.
What a grand thing to narrate to her
husband How the gallant cowboys
would praise and make veritable
heroine of her, Beatrice was very
proud of her first exploit in capturing
"a wild savage denizen Of the primeval
forest"
Beatrice valiantly took down the
house rifle from the antlers over the
dining room clock and placed it on
the table. Then she got the axe from
the yard Next she added the poker
to this warlike equipment.
She listened for some demonstra-
tions from below The "frenzied
growls,' the "frightful leaps" she had
read about as pertaining to bears, did
not ensue as she had expected. She
wondered if the infuriated animal had
gone to sleep. She hoped he had not
discovered the old cupboard in which
she kept the butter and milk.
About an hour later Beatrice heard
the tramp of horses and the sound OF
human voices along the trail. Six
mounted men came into view. Their
leader DOTTED his hat as he drove up
to the doorway where Beatrice stood.
1--WE are looking for stray bear"
he began.
"Oh, yes!" announced Beatrice Gag
erly, "a great ferocious monster

ture"
why, what is this?" inquired David
Merrill, as he and his hearty crowd
sat down to the smoking supper that
evening, and he found little heap Of
bank notes under his plate.
Then Beatrice told her story, with
dancing eyes. And David swung her
up in the air and kissed her at its
termination, while the enthusiastic
cowboys gave "HuzZa!" with an ad-
miring echo for their brave little
sister"

and the other sons married Princess
La Tremoille and Marchioness Col

came the wife of the prince of Ligne

The late duke was famous am
bassador during the time of Napoleon
Ill, being many years at the head or
the French embassy in London, and
he always invited the American am
bassadors in Paris out to Bonnetable
along with the other members Of the
diplomatic corps.
Otherwise few Americans were in
cluded in his house parties. He was
a royalist Of the old school and did
not approve of Americans. When his
kinsman married Matte Mitchell the
old duke considered it terrible me-
salliance. He said
"The young mans father married
his housekeeper, SO what could you
expect from their SON."
But the present duke of Doudeau-
vile and his duchess have extended
their invitations to Bonnetable to a
small number of Americans, who con-
slider it the crowning achievement of

asked to join that exclusive circle.

LONG LEGAL FIGHT
OVER LITTLE CALF
Animal Worth SO May Cost
Some Thousands.
1T CAUSES 0RATORY
Rides Into Town In Prairie Schooner
Dressed In Trousers With an Arm
ed Native on the Bow and Another
on the Stern.

Muskogee, Okla.-The battle for the
red bull calf of Brushy mountain has
been on in local justice court for
several months. and the indications
are 1t will continue until one or both
of the litigants are dead or bankrupt.
When the row began the calf was
three months old and worth $40. 1t Is
now seven months old, it's rightful
ownership is still matter of dispute,
and the cost of the suit has run to
$1,000.
M. c. Rucker. a farmer, charged his
neighbor. L. P. Hatley, with the theft
of the calf and had him arrested. Hat
ley was acquitted and sued Rucker for
$4,000 damages. Rucker undertook to
replevy the calf, but Hatley retained
possession by giving redelivery bond.
The hearing of the replevin proceed
ings before Justice Matt Thompson is
what brought as witnesses practically
every farmer In Brush Mountain
township to Muskogee. The litigants
employed the ablest lawyers in Mus
kogee.
The calf-or, perhaps, calf-also
came to town. 1t rode in a prairie
schooner with Brushy mountain ma
tive on the bow and another on the
stern, both armed with a six-shooter.
The calf wore two pairs of gunny-sack
trousers, coat of the same material
and kind of peek-a-boo calico hat. All
this sartorial adornment was for the
purpose Of concealing its exterior ap-
pearance. 1t had been intended that
the calf be exhibited in the court room.
But it had grown to size that made
this undesirable
