While his-Scott's-companions
awaited his recovery, they discov-
cred the tracks of white men who
had@passed through that region not
many days before. They asked
themselves whether it was better
for them to remain with Scott,
whose recovery was doubtful, and
themselves starve to death, or to
abandon him and hurry on to join
those others ahead? They decid-
ed that the lives of several well
men were of more consequence than
the fate of a man who was virtual
ly dead, and so they left their com
rade, under .pretense of hunting a
remedy for him.
The next summer these same men
revisited the Platte, and on top of
the Bluff now bearing his name COL
miles from where they had left
they found the bleached skel-
eton of the comrade they had SO
shamelessly deserted. This is Cap

tributed to the Sioux, and that they
would elect to be halfway decent
until they had received them
Right then they were gathering IN
from all directions, and over
thousand were already at Fl. Lar
annie. Of course in our ignorance,
we never thought of this until
many years had elapsed. We
should have started for SCOTS
Bluff if the whole Sioux nation
were on the warpath. Our Indians
were those of Cooper's novels, and
bore but slight resemblance to the
genuine article.
After lunch we walked until
overcome by fatigue, our footsteps
Jagged, and we ceased to have OUR
original interest in SCOTS Bluff.
Then father to cheer us, repeate
its story, with which we were al
ready familiar:
Some years previously, a small
party of hunters were descending
the Platte, when their canoes over
turned, spilling their powder, on
which they depended for killing
game, and they were obliged to live
on such roots and herbs as they
to be edible. When they
reached Laramie Fork, about CO.
miles from the Bluff, one of their
number became seriously ill-too
much so to continue the journey.

INDIAN BOY is THE BEST
BOW AND ARROW SHOT
OF GREAT PARK TRIBE

Lone Star, bow and arrow boy
of the Glacier Park Indian tribe,
is one of the most accurate shots
of his nation, according to reports
from the Indian department. He
uses a bow of saTvis wood with
which the late Chief Three Bears
shot big game in the Rocky noun
tains so years ago.
Lone Star is a full-blood Black
foot and evidently inherited the
bow and arrow strain from his buff
falo hunting ancestors.

metal pointed arrows than a great

of a convention program.

Rivals of Chester Bim
Gump Speeding East
ON Mile Trip
To CORNWALL, England

Chester BIN Gump, speeding
westward-alone-to visit his n
enormously wealthy Uncle BIN in
Australia, has rivals for public at
tention in the Three Little Rich
ardses," who are speeding east
ward-also alone-from M~issoula,
Montana, to Truro, Cornwall, Eng
land, to make their home with
their grandmother.
But there is a difference. AS the
readers of the comic sections have
noticed, Chester is spending money
like water on everything that pleases
him. On the other hand, when the
Three Little Richardses invoiced their
finances in Minneapolis recently as
they were passing that point of their
Journey, they found they had $3.50
of the $50 pocket money with which
they we're supplied upon leaving Mis-
soula.
With no MILLIONS back of them,
but something just as good-organ-
and co-operation-the Three
Richardses are having just as
happy a journey Is the Australia
bound Chester.
William Richards, aged IL, does
the talking to the conductor. George,
williams twin, is custodian of the
and steamship tickets. Grace,
aged 10, has charge of the cash fund.
Thus the three share equally in the
heavy responsibility of an u%nescort-
I'D pilgrimage of o than 5000
niles. The Three Little Richardses
sailed from Montreal on the Ansonia,
Iunard Liner.

While listening to this tragic
story we walked right along, my
father occasionally interruptine
himself to exclaim: 1--WE cannot
have to go much farther! Why
look! There it is right ahead OF
u.s." 1t was. And so likewise was a
freight train coming towards us.
When it reached us, the wagon
master and Father had the usual
confab when strangers met on the
Plains; the one going West ask
ing about the road, etc. and the
other anxious to LEARN what was
going on in the East during the
month or SO preceding the inter
view.
At length the wagon master in
quired, as he well might: "Where
are you going?"

Father.
The wagon master smiled the
peculiar smile reserved by the I'M
tiated for Pilgrims, or Tenderfeet"
as they were known in the Western
ve~rnacular, while remarking
You've quite a walk ahead of you.
Dou you expect to get there to-
day?"
"Of course. Why not? How
far is it," returned Father.
"On1y about Is miles. You'll
have to walk right smart to get
there" drawled the wagon master
as he joined his train and left us.
TWENTY-FIVE miles! is
nonsense. The man told us that
because he thought we would be-

Anyone can see it is not more than

Of midsummer threatened, and we

ever it proved to be. Regretfully
We glanced at the Bluff, and no.

base were apparently but a couple
If feet in heighth. No, we should
never be able to reach it.
Turning aside we entered the
