TEN TO ONE WILD BILL'S
GREATEST FIGHT
When the Overland stage route te
the Colorado gold fields was estab
lished shortly before the Civil war,
one of the bravest drivers lu its em
ploy was a young man from Illinois
named James Ii. HiekoU. In IStil
Hickok was taken off the stages and
put in charge of the Rock Creek sta
tion, west of Topeka, Kan., in a region
tilled with gangs of out laws and high
vfuy robbers, one of these, known as
the MeCandlass gang, Invited Hickok
to join them and, upon his refusal,
threatened to visit him some day and
make him regret his defiance.
"You'll find me here any time you
come," was llickok's reply.
A few days later the MeCandlass
gang did find him there. They at
tacked him in his dug-out, battered
down the dour and Jim MeCandlass,
the leader, sprang into the room. He
was killed by a bullet from llickok's
rifle. Three more of the gang were
Khow down with a pistol before the
other six drew their howie knives and
rushed upon him.
"Then I went wild," said Hickok
In telling of the fight afterw ards. I ics
portUely wounded but terrible in his
berserker rage, be came to grips with
t lie outlaws, and when the tight was
over eight of the ten were dead and
the other two fled for their lives.
Ever afterward Klckok was known as
"Wild Hill."
Later Wild Hill enlisted In the Union
array as a scout He served with Gen
eral Curtis In Arkansas and repeatedly
entered the Confederate lines as a
(py. More than once he won discov
ered and forced to flee, and more than
once the fleetnesg and Intelligence of
his favorite horse, "Black Nell." saved
hlg life. He was a sharpshooter at
the llattle of Pea Ridge, where lie dis
tinguished himself by killing the Con
federate general, McCullough.
After the war Bill returned to Kan
sas and became a scout for General
Custer, who set a high value ou his
services and who once said : "Whether
n foot or on horseback, Wild Bill
was one of the most perfect types of
physical manhood I have ever seen."
From 1Sj" to IsTO Hickok served as
marshal of Hays City and Abilene,
Knn.
Hicknk's adventurous career came
to an end In the Black Hills of South
Iakota. He had gone there with the
first g"!d nih and in some, way hud
Incurred the enmity of Jack McCall,
a gambler. On August 2. 170, Mc
Call treacherously shot hlra In the
hack as he sat playing cards with
some of his friends.

(, 1921, Western Newspaper Union.)
It was not the first time that Marlon
had been humiliated because of her
husband's niece. That Langdon should
Insist upon taking a girl of Peggy's
sort with them, was bad enough, but
when Peggy Brewster continued her
independently unusual way the sit
uation became trying.
"Let her alone," Langdon said Im
patiently, "anyone can see that Peg
gy Is as wholesome and sweet as a
flower. I'm sure she's popular all
over the place."
And she was, that was the trouble.
"All over the place," from the ar
rogant manager of the exclusive 'Old
Brown Inn,' down to the humblest er
rand boy, they all liked Peggy. It
was not in such democratic friend
liness that Marion had been reared,
and she considered, therefore, Peg
gy's carefree attitude aji affront to
herself.
If she and Langdon had been kind
enough to rescue the girl for a few
weeks from her monotonous city-flat
existence, (lie least that Peggy could
do in return would be to follow their
well-bred example. So Marion in her
customary aloofness reasoned. When
Stuyvesant llensalier begun to pay
their young guest pronounced inten
tion, Marion was lnollilied.
Stuyvesant was an acquisition so
cially. But Peggy's last offense was the
greatest of all. Marion, In her cha
grin felt as she remarked to her much
tried husband, "like shipping the girl
back to where she belonged."
For Miss Brewster had the night
before defied all customs of the house,
by spending the entire evening in the,
company of a certain broad-shouldered
young employee of the Brown
Inn.
"Peggy will have to adapt herself
to our customs," she said determined
ly, "or go back to her satisfied mother.
I am going down now to speak to her
plainly."
Apprehensively, Langdon followed.
He was very fond of this young niece
of his.
Marlon seated herself Impressively
before the couch hammock on which
Peggy Brewster was swinging.
"We have come," she said with an
Including nod toward her husband,
"to talk over with you your actions
of last evening."
Peggy smiled confidently up at the
husband. "You mean, of course," she replied,
coming directly to fact, "about my
talking to Ned Weston on the side
porch in (ha moonlight. "I don't
think," Peggy went on softly enthusi
astic, "that I shall ever forget tliat
talk, or the evening. It was some
thing that one would remember. Have
you ever noticed," Peggy besought her
uncle, "what a line face that man has?
I think I was attracted first by his
eyes. So frank and direct In gaze,
and by his courtesy, given merely as
one's due. Oh! I liked Ned Weston
from the moment when he came to
trim the hushes near myihnmmock. I
knew he was worth while."
Dryly Marion Interrupted.
"We, I fear," she said, "hold a dif
ferent opinion."
Quietly the young woman regarded
her uncle's wife.
"Yet, not so very long ago," she
said, "you, Marlon, stood down at the
station back home, and waved that
same young man a tearful good-bye.
He still remembers your face. He was
going on a long Journey, and because
of your pride in him then, you took
the violets you were wearing from
your breast, und gave them into his
bands."
Marlon gasped.
"Peggy Brewster!" she exclaimed,
"what are you talking about?"
"I am talking about the time our
first enlisted boys went away to war,"
Peggy said, "offering freely their lives
in our defense. And oh, how we were
thrilled, tl icn. Ned estoii was one
of that number. Miraculously he es
caped In fierce battb now, he is
back. We were remembering that
war, he and I, last night. And as I
questioned, I learned of (be young
brother, whom iiis mother had begged
him to watch over and protect if
could be. That brother was shot dead
at his side. And when he got back
home after all was over, It was to
find, that the mother also had died.
"Oh ! Ned Weston was not complain
ing or openly grieving. He was
merely reluctantly answering my
questions. And he was not able to
get back bis old good position ; some
equally worthy man had filled It, so
In the need of urgent employment he
took up gardening on the Old Inn
grounds, and looking after the cars.
But I hope," Peggy paused thought
fully, then cast a bright questioning
glance In Langdon's direction, "to In
terest some business man In this brave
soldier. It's a fine thing, uncle," she
earnestly added, "to he able to give
to a man his chance."
Marlon arose.
"I suppose," she said resignedly,
"that there is a personal Interest In
this request. Low? at first sight, or
something like that."
The girl's eyes widened, then Peggy
laughed.
"Why, it was chiefly of Ned Wes
ton's wife and babies that he talked
last evening," she said, "and for their
sake, as well as his, that I planned
I Im'.eiifii"

All our skill, facilities, and lifelong knowledge of the
finest tobaccos are concentrated on this one cigarette
CAMEL.
Into this ONE BRAND, we put the utmost quality.
Nothing is too good for Camels. They are as good as it's
possible to make a cigarette.
Camel QUALITY is always maintained at the same high,
exclusive standard. You can always depend on the same
mellow-mild refreshing smoothness the taste and rich
flavor of choicest tobaccos and entire freedom from
cigaretty aftertaste.
And remember this! Camels come in one size package
only 20 cigarettes just the right size to make the greatest
saving in production and packing. This saving goes
straight into Camel Quality. That's one reason why you
can get Camel Quality at so moderate a price.
Here's another. We put no useless
frills on the Camel package. No "extra
wrappers!" Nothing just for show!
Such things do not improve the smoke
any more than premiums or coupons. And
their added cost must go onto the price
or come out of the quality.
One thing, and only one, is responsible
for Camels great and growing popularity
that is CAMEL QUALITY.
