EPISCOPAL CHJIJ)KE. PUT OX
DELIGHTFUL PROGRAM
Children of the Episcopal Sunday
school put on a delightful entertain
ment last Thursday evening at the
church when two beautifully appoin-
! ted Christmas trees yielded accep-
table rewards of merit to the child-
ren after the program. "The Guild,"
was the title of a home-made play
: let which was put on by the little la
dies of the Sunday school and all that
were fortunate enough to be present
agreed that it was a scream. Every
J active member of the local Guild wa
taken off by one 6t the diminutive
lassies, properly made up for the
part and there was a lot of knitting
and sewing and other activities to
which such gatherings direct their
energies and whisper it gently
even a bit of interesting gossip on the
side.
Another interesting exercise was
entitled" Santa Claus in Many Lands"
in which the boys of the school took
the leading parts.
The church was crowded with an
interested and appreciative audience.
Miss N. V. Fitzherbert, a teacher
in the Hardman high school, was a
guest at the Patrick last evening.

THE LONG SHOT MADE BY BILLY
DIXON
"The old Sharps rifle ended the
North American buffalo," once wrote-
Theodore Roosevelt, the chronicler of
the winning of the West, and he
might have added that this famous
gun helped write "Finis" to the story
of the Indian with a few periods of
lead.
One of the most remarkable shote
ever made with this rifle too place
at the Adobe Walls fight in the Texas
Panhandle In 1874, when a war party
of Klowas, Comanches and Cheyenne.
tried to wipe out a little group of buf
falo hunters who had their headquar
ters there. The shot was tired by
Billy Dixon, known to the Indians &ff
"Hasta Long Hair."
After three charges against the
stockade had failed to overwhelm tike
buffalo hunters, the Indians settled
down to starve them out During the
siege "Bat" Masterson, one of the
hunters, noticed a group of Indians
gathered on a hill nearly three-quarters
of a mile away. They could be
plainly seen, and were evidently talk
ing over some new plan for overcom
ing the white men when Masterson.
called Dixon's attention to the group.
"Hilly, It wouldn't be a bad idea tc
break up that little pow-wow over
there, would It?" he said.
"Don't' know whether the old Sharps.
Is good for It or not, but I'll try it,"
replied Dixon. He knew the range
approximately 1,200 yards. Fixing the
sights of his gun to this range, the
scout aimed carefully and fired. The
whlte men saw the conference of the
warriors break np hastily and the sav
ages retreat to safer place.
Dixon served as a scout for Genera t
Miles in the campaign against the
southern tribes that year, and he waa
one of the six dispatch bearers who
made a heroic stand In an old buffalo
wallow against a war party of 125
Comanches and Klowas. In this fight
Amos ChnVmnn, a fellow scout, lost
his leg. Although Dixon's shirt front
was riddled with bullets, he received
only one slight wound. That night
he volunteered to go for help and
after a perilous trip he brought back
a troop of cavalry and rescued his
comrades.
For nine years Dixon was a govern
ment scout at Kort Elliott, Tex. Then
he homesteaded a ranch In the Pan
handle, building his log bouse on the
ruins of the old Adobe Walls where
be had made his famous shot with the
old Sharps. Later he naved to Cimar
ron teaaty, Oklahoma, an died near
