JEDEDIAH STRONG SMITH, THE
AMERICAN ULYSSES

This is story Of a modern Ulysses,
frontier hero of many wanderings,
who died without receiving the fame
| which was his due, q man whose serv-
| Ice to America has been but lately
appreciated by his cOuntrymen. Jede-
diah Strong Smith was his name. and
his contribution to history was the
first accurate mapping of the great
West.
Smith was born In New York in
1893. AS a boy he played with the
young Seneca Indians of Chief Corn
planters tribe, and learned their lore.
He became an expert with the bow
and arrow, which he afterward car
ried on all of his expeditions. Once
he brought down a hawk flying about
20 yards above him, and he could
drive shaft to the heart of a buff
falO as skillfully as any Indian hunter.
In years Of wandering Smith
crossed the western country on the
south from the Colorado river to the
Pacific; he crossed 1t midway from
the Rockies to the Pacific, and he
traversed it on the north from Cali
fornia to the Rockies. He visited all
the important streams from Arizona
to the Yellowstone country, aud he
made accurate notes of all he saw.
This information was used In correct
Ing the unreliable maps of the day
and proved Of inestimable value to
later explorers.
Smiths death was heroic. In 1881
he was guiding a wagon train over
the Santa Fe trail. The train had TAX
en- short cut around the head of the
CimarrOn river and soon was lost In
a desert country. Water must be
found at once. Smith set out In search
of a stream, and finally reached one.
While drinking, he was surrounded by
band Of Comanches, who determined
to have the white mans gun.
The Indians signaled peace, and af-
ter talking In the sign language for a
while, they succeeded In frightening
Smiths horse. AS it turned, they shot
at the scout with arrows, wounding
him In the arm. Smith wheeled about
shot the chief dead with his rifle and
Killed two more savages with his pis-
tolls. Then grasping his ak, the scout
dashed into their midst. They cut
him down with their lances, but when
they approached to scalp him, Smith
rose up again and stabbed three of
them with his knife. Then he dropped
dead. The Indians afterward admit
ted that he had killed Is of their part,
before no died.

that had been used largely by
the Indians as pasture for their
