THE LONG SHOT MADE BY BILLY
DIXON

~The old Sharps. rife ended the
North American buffalo," once wrote
Theodore Roosevelt, the chronicier Of
the winning OF the West, and he
might have added that this famous
gun helped write "Finis" to the story
Of the Indian with q few periods Of
lend.
One Of the most remarkable shots
ever made with this rife TOOK place
at the Adobe Walls fight In the Texas
Panhandle In 1874. when war party
of Kiowas, Comanches and Cheyennes
tried to wipe out little group Of buff
ters there. The shot was fred by
Billy Dixon, known to the Indians an
"Hasta-Long Hair"
After three charges against the
stockade had failed to overwhelm the
buffalo hunters, the Indians settled
down to starve them out During the
siege bat" Masterson, one of the
hunters. noticed a group Of Indians
gathered on a hill nearly three-quar-
ters Of a mile away. They could be
plainly seen. and were evidently talk
ing over some new plan for overcom-
ing the white men when Masterson
called Dixon's attention to the group.
BILLY, 1t wouldn't be q bad idea to
break up that little pow-wow over
there, would it?" he said.
"Don't know whether the old Sharps
Is good for 1t or not, but I'll try It,"
replied Dixon. He knew the range
approximately 1900 yards. Fixing the
sights Of his gun to this range, the
scout aimed carefully and fred. The
white men saw the conference Of the
warriors break up hastily and the saw
ages retreat to a safer place.
Dixon served as a scout for General
Miles In the campaign against the
southern tribes that year, and he was
one of the six dispatch bearers who
made a heroic stand In an old buffalo
Comapches and Kiowas. In this fight
Amos Chapman. fellow scout, lost
his leg. Although Dixon's~ shirt front
was riddled with bullets, he received
only one slight wound. That night
he volunteered to 60 for help and
after a perilOus trip he brought back
troop Of cavalry and rescued his
comrades.
For nine years Dixon was govern
nent scout at Fort Elliott. Tex. Then
he hOmesteaded ranch In the PAN

ruins OF the old Adobe Walls where

TEN TO ONE-WILD BILLS
GREATEST FIGHT

When the Overland stage route to
the Colorado gold fields was estab-
lished shortly before the Civil war.
one OF the bravest drivers In it's en-
ploy was a young man from Illinois
named James B. Hickok. In 1861
Hickok was taken OF the stages and
put In charge Of the Rock Creek sta
ton. west Of Topeka. Kan, In q region
hiied with gangs Of outlaws and high
way robbers. One of these, known an
the McCandlass gang, invited Hickok
to Join them and, upon his refusal,
threatened 10 visit him some day and
make him regret his defiance.
you'll find me here any time you
come" was Hickok's reply.
A few days later the McCandlass
gang did-fnd him there. They at
lacked him In his dug-out. battered
down the door and Jim McCandlass,
the leader. sprang into the room. He
was killed by bullet from Hickok's
rifle. Three more Of the gang were
shot down with pistol before the
other six drew their bowie knives and
rushed upon him.
'"Then / went wild" said Hickok
In telling Of the fight afterwards. Des.
perately wounded but terrible In his
berserker rage, he came to grips with
the outlaws, and when the fight was
over eight Of the ten were dead and
the other two fed for their lives.
Ever afterward Kickok was known a.

army as scout. He served with Gen.

OUR BOYS ON THE RHINE

There has been much adverse criti-
cism concerning the fact that a
large force of American soldiers are
still kept in Germany, but it appear
that the Germans want our boys t.
stay on the Rhine for the very rea.
son that if the American soldiers
come away French soldiers will take
their place. A German paper ex-
presses the wish and says that it is
universal in Germany that the Ameri-
cans may remain a long time.

THAT MICHIGAN ELECTION

Readers of The Advertiser may re-
member tnat long time ago, there
was an election in Michigan for Uni
ted States Senator IN which Henry
Ford and Furman Newberry were
the candidates for the United States
Senate. Ford was defeated but il
was claimed that Newberry spent
$1S0,000 to win the election which is
contrary to the State and the United
States and also contrary to all ideas
of right and justice.
After a long delay a Congressional
committee has decided that Ford was
not elected and that Furman New
berry was entitled to the seat in the
Senate. AS the Republicans are in
the majority in both houses of Con-
gress it is not surprising the commit
tee decided to keep Furman New
berry in, which they did.
1t is said that Ford intends to have
another and more important and en-
tcnsive investigation of Newberry's
right to the seat in the Senate.
Mr.. Ford says he is not contending
for the seat in the Senate, but does
want to show and rebuke the meth
DDS by which he was defeated.
In this investigation that has just
now come to an end a Democratic
minority report signed by Senator.
Ashurst of Arizona, King of Utah
and Pomercne of Ohio, accused New
berry Of conSplrlng with others fol
the debauchery of the Michigan elec
torate and the violation of the Mich
gan election laws and the fedora
statute limiting senatorial can
dldate's campaign expenditures "bS
the expenditure of large sums o.
money with his knowledge and con-
sent"
1he report also charged that New
berry was familiar with the fact
that large sums were being cXpend-
ed, and that he knew that not les
than $lSS,56S was expended in viola.
ton of law" to further his candidacy
despite statements to the contrary
made by him under oath which the
report asserted were false and un-
true ~,
Had the Republican majority d
sense of fairness and justice they
would not have seated Newberry a
his vote was not needed the Senate
with its large Republican majority.
But they swallowed Newberry with
his $lS8.568 spent in the election and
did not bat an eye.

planted by hand between every alter

planted by hand between every alter nate stalk of corn. The Velvet bean will continue to grow long after the corn is fully ma tured, under favorable conditions, un- til killed by frost but 1t is not good idea to attempt to harvest the corn before the beans are killed by frost, as the corn can then be found much better.
 l When the corn is harvested, the beans may be grazed by live stock, and thus afford an excellent pasture for considerable time and many farmers have found this an excellent way of putting their stock in good condition to go through the winter on very little extra feed.
 A good crop to grow in this section after Velvet beans and corn is canta- loupes. as the soil is usually in good condition, and if the bean vines are turned under about the first of De cember, a large amount of plant food will be available for the cantaloupc crop without having to resort to the use of so much costly commercial fertili- gers.
 Velvet beans may also be grown on land by themselves in rows but outside of the matter of growing them simply as a soil renovating crop, this is not recommended. However, on every farm there are acres of idle or waste land, that could very prifitably be used in this way and thereby start the building up process.
