"The American Mazeppa" and
was the inspiration for a famous picture upon
which two artists of world renown elaborated.
The frontiersman Simon Kenton, Simon
Butler, as he was also known. The picture was
"Simon Butler, Or Mazeppa Americana and the
two artists were Jean Francois Millet, the
Frenchman famed for his 1.-THE Angelus" and
"The Sower," and Karl Bodmer, the Swiss, who
was one of the earliest and greatest painters
of the American Indian.
In the summer of 177S Col. John Bowman,
commander of the fort at Harrodsburg KY, sent
three men, Simon Kenton, Alexander Montgom-
cry and George Clark (not THE George Rogers

Indian town of Chillicothe beyond the Ohio
river. short time before this Kenton and
Montgomery accompanied party led by Daniel
Boone on similar spying expedition to Paint
creek-town In Ohio, recaptured four horses which
the Indians had taken from the Kentucky set
tiers and brought them back safely to Logans
Station.
So when the three men started out to scout
for Bowman, they took along a quantity of salt
and some halters in case they should have a
chance to capture some more Indian horses.
Such a chance did present itself and on the
night of September g. IT'S, they fled from Chilli
cothe, taking with them seven Indian horses.
BY riding hard all night, all the next day and
the morning of September IL only to find its
waters so whipped up by a storm that they could
not force the horses to plunge in and swim for
the Kentucky shore.
Despite the certainty of pursuit by the Indi-
ans they resolved to wait there until the river
should subside instead of selecting the three best
horses and making their escape while there was
still time, as Kenton himself later admitted they
should have done. The result was that on the
morning of September Is party of Shawnees

up the horses and proceed down the Ohio to
Corn Island, where there was garrison of Ken
tuckians. Kenton was the first to fall into the
aid, fired at the Indians but missed and fed for
his life with some of the savages in hot pur-
suit In the meantime Clark dashed down to
the river, plunged in and clinging to piece of
driftwood, managed to reach the Kentucky
shore.
The Indians who had been chasing Montgom-
cry soon returned bringing with them his scalp
and they took turns sapping Kenton across the
face with it, exclaiming they did so, you
steal Indian boss, huh?" The Shawnees were in
an ugly mood, for Daniel Boone had recently es-
capped from them and returned to Boonesbor-
ough in time to help beat off an Indian attack
on that fort But now they had captive who
was almost as great foeman as Boone and
they had no intention of allowing him to escape.
They knew him for brave man and they were
resolved that he should show how brave man

GOLD BLOC ACCUSED
OF 'SHYLOCK SPIRIT
Refusal to See Roosevelt's View
point Assailed by Officially In
spired Berlin Paper.
BY the Associated Press.


BERLIN, July 6.-The officially in
spired Diplomatische Politische Kor-
respondent charges that the gold bloc
at the World Economic Conference is
exhibiting "a shylock spirit" in refusing
to see the viewpoint of President Roose-
velt.
France, Switzerland and Holland are
showing at least as intransigeant an
attitude regarding the cardinal ques-
tions of setting their respective houses
In order as the United States" the
paper says.
"Creditor countries belonging to the
gold bloc do not want to recognize that
it is unjust and Immoral to demand
of a debtor unqualified fulfllment of
his obligations, although in terms of
goods he must produce almost double
the amount due when he contracted
the debt.
THE American President saw the
problem in a new light The complete
failure of the gold bloc upon the debt
problem is the real reason for break
down of the London Conference"
