pany will only include two ships
for Skagway, the City of Seattle

Ihe number of days allowed thes

11 days and from that time until
the end of the season the time has
been extended to 12 days.

days today. If no word is received
from thpm within the next twelve
hours the St. Nicholas or the. Iowa
will be sent out tomorrow to see
if they can be located.
A >veek ago last Friday, J. K.
Neville, Jesse Neville, A. Rundell

food with them for several days
ever the time they expected to be
away, but their supplies must be
running short by this time. It is
thought that their boat has been
caught in the shore ice of Gam

A shadow. hag fallen, across tho'
"Id Chisholm trail—now it is dark.
There is a faint rustling in the grass j
—then all is still. Buffalo Bill is
dead.
HerQ in both fact and fancy, oc
cupying ai cnamfcer in the round
tower of ev®ry American hoy's heart!
more admired than Santa Claus, thi*l
old rider of the plains has gone to I
the green valley of which he sang toj
many times.
Hie body should rest in. som®
wild wind-swept spct on tho trail
starred prairie, for there his soul
would find the peace it never
found In, cities and palaces. A
simple-minded, fearless Westerner,
he stood in the presence of princes
and looked them squarely in the
eyes—for in his country every man
is king And in spite of the fact
that he often sang the cowboys fa
vorite chorus—
Q bury mo not on the loue prairi-ee
AV'ere the wild coyotes will howl
o'er me.
In a narrow grave just six by throe,
0 bury me not on tho lone
prairi-ee—
his last resting place should be
under the wide and starry sky, far
from the homes and haunts of
men. Only there will the soul of
♦he plainsman find rest.
Just as matter-of-fact as he
used to start out with tho express
aross an Indian-infested country, he
awaited the coming of Jiis last re
lief. He smiled when death was
mentioned just as h® smiled when
some nervouB tenderfoot warned him
to look out for Toad-agents. For
Bill Cody disxemembered being
afraid, as did the other boys who
rode "'way up on the Kansas line.
DenveT is a beau' iful city, and if
hl§ last earthly view had to be of
smoki&g chimneys and great piles
of brick and mortar, i; could be
Denver as well as any other town.
But we know Colonel Cody
would a great deal rather have
been cut where the "range was wide
an"1 the "dogies" were hurrying to
find shelter from tho blizzard. For
in days of Joe Bowers and Dm Tay
lor (cowboy heroes), ho sang as
iQud as any of them—
1 started up the trail October
twenty-third,
I started up the trail with, the 2-U
herd,
Oh, a ten-dollaT hots and a forty
dollar saddle—
Anl I'm goin' to p-unchin' Texas
cattle.
They sang this song as they
rode, but when the night was dark
and the winds foretold coming
s'orm?, the riders would gather
around a camp fire and sing mourn
ful ballads— death set-mod to be a
more popular theme than love. As
♦ha scout lay counting the hours,
ho no doubt thought of the ancient
streets of Laredo, so famed in the
old song of his "pards"; the chor
us is s»ill sung by the schoolboys
of Lodge City and Laramie:
Oh, beat the drum slowly and play
*.i.jw *ur
Play the Dead March as you car
ry me along;
Take me to t)ie green valley, there
lay the sod o'er me.
Ft I'm a young cowboy and I
know I've done wrong.
Plainsmen did not think much
abou* the fine points of right and
wrong. They lived their life as
they lound it Quick to resent an
ins.ult, just as ready to give up life
as to taise it, their philosophy is
best expressed by the epitaph they
placed on tjie he^dljoard over the
grave of a young cowboy—
BE DONE IDS DAMDEST
And so William Frederick Cody, a
natiTi, son of Iowa and an adopted
8Qn of Kansas, lived his days. Kind
to all whom he thought worthy, |
generous to a. fault, brave and true
to his trust, ho carved his initials
in the Western hall of fame with,
a six-shooter and a pair of silver
sours.
If ttLere was any one thing in
the world that made Buffalo Bill
more angry than anything else it
was for one to- say something about
a survivor of the Custer massacre.
Every once in a while such an. im
pos*er is found. During lis last
visit to Portland Cody told the writ
er of an experience he had in San
Dlegc not long before.
"When I got through! wih.t him
there wasn't anything left to say,"
the Colonel stated. "And I didn't
talk much, either."
"Some of my friends told me
w*en I reached town that the only
survivor of the Custer massacre liv
e* there. I said to them that any
white man who said he was a Bur
rivor of that fight had no regard
tor the truth.." ; ' ' J Jr

The Colonel paused a moment *o
explain that those were not the ex
ac* words he had used, but that
they expressed the meaning he bad
imoarted.
"Well, he came to see me in my
dressing tent, just like you are here,
out be never sat down. He walked
in and said: 'How dp you do, Col-,
oncl Bill. I am the only survivor of
the Custer Massacre.'
"I looked clean through his ugly
carcass tor a minute, and then I
said: 'You are a liar!'
"He turned on his heel and pull
ed his freight. I waa told he left
town that same night. And, sir, I
wish to Bay without one word of
boasting that it was a mighty good
lhing foi him that h0 flidn't say any
more than he did."
That night, the former pony
exoress rider s't in his tent with
his good ear turned toward me—
he explained that he had frozen the
drum of the other one yrhilg guard
ing an army pack train, bacls in the
'70s—he told ol a startling adven
ture he had Tight here in Oregon,
in the peaceful city of Albany, mind
you!
An old woman, crowned with the
grace and beauty tha* years give to
.womanhood, called on him. She ex
plained that she had wanted to see
h.im ever since she was a little girl,
for she declared he and her grand
father had crossed the plains to
gether in 1845. ThiB sure did start.le
the good old scout, for he didn't
happen to be born until February
26, 1846. But he just bowed again,
and smiled.
"How is grandfather?" asked tho
plainsman.
"Oh, he's been dead many years."
was the reply, "But he lived to be J
Qu'te an old man. He used tp tell ]
me that you were jusit 30 years
old wheu hia party, crossed the
plains." ' I '
Albanv waa a dry town then, so
Buffalo Bill did not get over his
scare until after he had spent a
day in Portland. His fair visitor
had made him out to )>e 98 years
old. He often declared that he was
the mos» pestered maa, in the world,
for in every town he visited he was
called upon, by fakers of all ages,
who told o£ weird adventures they
had gone through withi him all the
way from the time be helped Paul
Revere warn the sleeping folk of
Lexington and Concord down to the
charge at San Juan hill.
As he. chatted that night—inter-,
rupted every fejv minutes by "one
of the many'"—he began humming
a strange tune whdle looking for a
clipping he wished to Bhow.
"What's that, Colonel?"
"What's what?" f ' ' >
"That, song."
"Oh, didn't realize I was singin'
Why, that's old' Dan Taylor.' You
remember 'Dian Taylor'?"
"Sure.'! ' ('
It was a favorite with the roand
uo youngsters, who grew tired of
siaing about "Joe Bowers, all the
way from Pike." The song began:
Dan Taylor is a rollickia' cuss,
A frisky sun of a gun,
He loves to court tlje maidens
And he savies how it's done.
Han was a cowboy wrho could
"heel a maverick on the fly," but
he grew tired of "picking up the
front ones," so the song ran—
He's done and quit th' business.
Settled down to quiet life,
Anil he's huntin' for some maiden
Who will bo his little wife—
One who will wash and patch hia
britches
And feed the settin' hen.
Milk old Blue and Brindy,
And tend to Baby Ben.
A delightful chap to meet when
one "rubbed the fur th§ right way,"
the .Colonel dbid not leave any room
for argument when he did not care
to converse. While talking, a
stranger walked in and announced
lie knew Mr. Cody's folks in Omaha.
The Colsnel told him he had no
relatives in Omaha.
"Sure you, liave. I k no wed 'em,"
insisted the visitor.
A half dozen words, every one
oolite hut pointed, convinced the
caller that some mistake had been
made.
But now the howls of the coyotes
and the eerie cry of the blizzard will
not be heard by the famous pony;
expressman. And the boys of to
morrow will not get to see the
Deadwcod stage rescued by Buffalo
Bill and his daring cow<boys. The
prairies and the "big top" will mis3
him. Only a few old, bent men are
left now to tell of the night they
and Bill used to Bit upi and sing:
The cowboy's life is a dreary, dreary
life.
All out in the midnight rain;
I'm almpst froze with the water on
my clothes,
'Way up on the Kansas line.
W. V. IiELIEF MAX ON
. WAY OUT FOR WINTER
c. I'. Hick.ok arrived in Skagway
on last night's train enroute to San
Francisco where he will spend the
balance of the winter, returning to
the north in time to go in over
the ice to Nenana about the lirst
of March. ' < ■
Last summer Mr. Hicfcok was; the
White Pass agent at the Yukon Riv
er terminal o£ the new government
railroad, and when navigation clos
ed in the fall he came out over the
trail to Chitina and then by rail to
Ccrdcva, thence to Skagway; by
steamer and then on to. Whitehorse
wher° he relieved W. W. Dickinson,
the Whito Pass agent at that glace
when "Billy" took Jxis vacation.
Upon "Billy's" return to hia du
ties in the North, Mr. Hickok Was
brought on to Carcrosa where ha re
lieved J. D. Harris while the latter
took a trip to the stags.
