FOUR YOUNG MEN IN T1IE
', GOLD RUSH
' ' III
The Birdsall Darty. full of ex
citement, left Memphis April 20,
on the steamer "Prairie Belle,"
for St. Joseph in Missouri. Their
six oxen, for which tney naa paia
$65 apiece-r-a high price stood in
the stalls on the lower deck, and
there also was their covered
wagon, heavily laden with sup
plies for the journey. .
Long before the Prairie Belle
reached its destination it was
crowded with California bound
travelers; their equipment clut
tered the boat from stem to stern.
But some of them possessed-no
baggage at all; they had vague,
undefined notions of getting there
somehow, even if they had to beg
their way.
Some of these passengers got
off at Kansas City. They intended
to make Independence, Mo., their
point of departure or their "jump-jng-off
place," asy they called it.
But most of the California-bound
travelers went on to St. Joseph,
where the "Prairie Belle" arrived
on April 28.
As the boat pulled up slowly at
the wharf the Birdsalls, like Ihe
rest of the passengers.-erowdetl to
the deck railing and stared at the
scene before their eyes.
It was a moving picture of men,
animals, covered wagons, saloons,
open-air cooking, muddy boots, red
shirts, rifles, dirks and whisky
bottles. The sounds fitted the pic
tlirq loud greetings, laughter,
songs and quarrels. In thetljs
tance, on the skyline, the men on
the "Prairie Belle" saw a line of
covered wagons moving silently
toward the west. Close to the
Birdsall party on the deck stood
a man about 60 in a battered,
hich-toD beaver hat. He wore a
-long -broadcloth-contrllke a Wem-
ber of one ot tne icarnea proics
sions, but his knee-high boots did
not seem to go with the coat or
thp hat. nor did his checkered
shirt. Instead of a collar and tie
he had a black scarf wrapped
about his neck. He had got on tne
boat somewhere in. IUinols,-and
all that was known of him was
his name which was Kendall.
!
"So this Is St. Joseph," he said
to the Birdsalls. "If.it was my
duty to name places, I'd call it
Bedlam."
"Yes, it's kind of crazy," Jake

Uirusall agreed, "but we have to
put up waa tnat. well soon o
uii our way 10 me lanu oi sum,
Ail ot us together."
"lney 11 piooaoiy have to bury
me on tne way," Kenuall ic
marked in a tutu tone, "i in too
oiu tor sucn auventures."
"men wnai maue you come,
sir?" Jake audea tne sir" wun
out thougnl or iiueuuon.
Kenuuu, u mat was really his
name, smiled giinuy anu saiu,
"vneii, tne weauier got a nine
too warm for me in my home
town."
Tne top-hatted man moved away
and Jane said to nimseit: I'll Dei
mere are wousanus oi em. ione
something or omer emoezzung,
stealing, row over women, mayue
muruer they change their names
and start lor the gold fields.
With much ditliculty the Birds-
alls got tne covered wagon and
the oxen ashore, lound a piace to
set up their tent, and then pro
ceeded to look around.
'tney had not gone far in stroll
ing aoout the camp belore they
realized that their clothes did noi
come up to the gold rush standard
by any means. There was the
matter of shirts, lor .instance.
They had brought with them some
excellent shirts, of brown ging
ham, but they soon learned that a
real, honest - to - God gold seeker
must wear a red shirt. It had to
be a vivid red with an attached
collar. The right kind of coat was
made of rough woolen cloth. It
reached nearly to the knees and
was provided with a lot ol capa
cious pockets. The trousers were
invariably tucked into the heavy
top boots. Slouch hats were in
the prevailing mode. In the matter
of arms every gold seeker was
supposed to wear a leather belt
wiin a holster for a rather heavy
cavalry pistol. Besides this lire
arm the alert and forthcoming
traveler was equipped with a
dirk about 12 lncncs long.
...
Next day, which was April 29,
the Birdsalls went shopping. They
had some money lelt, and at a
rough and ready clothing store
which was sandwiched in between
four saioons they purchased the
red shirts, the long coats and the
shapeless slouch hats.
They bought also lour dozen
bottles ci whisky, tin empty barrel
for carrying water across the dry
and arid stretches that they ex
pected to encounter; and they ob
tained a Dutch oven which sat on
four legs so that it could be put
over a lire burning on the ground.
At on-. place, which a loud
voiced man standing in .the door
Invited everyone to enter they
found what the proprietor called
canned meat. The meat was
contained in receptacles made of
tin, and were called "cans," as tne
proprietor explained patiently
over and over. "Long belore you
get there," he 6rated, "you'll be
sick and tired of rancid bason and
dried pemmlcan as hard as nails
and with so many fly specks on it
that you can't tell what its color
was before the flies got at it. But
here we have canned meat a new
Invention. It's always sweet and
fresh. Why? Because it is cooked
before it goes into the can and,
furthermore, the can is sealed so
that no air ever gets in. Here, try
a piece of our wonderful canned
beef."
An open can stood before him.
He dipped into it deftly with a
fork, removed some pieces and
placed them on slices of bread
which he passed around among
his audience. Nearly everybody
bought some of the cans at $1
apiece.
