Six articles dealing with dash- ng figures from America’s past have preceded this one. The author is a distinguished writer and was, Quring the World War, chairman of the Dresident's committee on public information. BY GEORGE CREEL.

Americans, English, French, Ca nadians and many queer mixed breeds pitched their buffalo-skin shelters by The shining water, skylarking like dren before drifting back into the solitudes for another year of hardship &nd peril. A strange, n they wild race, hating the had fled from, vet ilization nearer with every found, every trail they blazed; conquering the great sweep of en' West, yet barred from any are in the reward by their own in vincible nomadism. and doomed to pass along with the buffalo and the beaver. Gamty and friendship marked the annual rendezvous for the most part. but now and then a bully swaggered in, eager to win a reputation for him self by blow and brawl. .Such a one was Shunan, from the far North, evil enough when sober and a devil in his cu bringing path they =h For a while his boasts were endured, | a then an American stepped for- mall that he did not houlder, so slender his body was scarce broader than massive l-g. His long brown was as fine as a wo..in's, the ayseves soft and mild, and soft and miid was his voice as he told th bull; to stop his noise and insults. “An' what might your name be, lit- oster”” sneered Shunan. “Kit Carson,” came the answer in the same low-pitched, pleasant tone. “You Kit Carson!” Shunan screamed with laughter. “Why, all I need for your case is a willow switch.” * x % x 'HE duel arranged was after the fashion most popular among the deadly men of the frontier—a charge on horseback at 100 yards, each to oarry the weapon that best suited his fancy. Shunan chose the rifie and Carson picked his pistol. Down the course the riders thun- dered. Like a flash ‘Shunan's’ rifle leaped to his shoulder, but even a his finger pressed thé trigger Carson fired ‘without seeming to aim. His ball shat tered the right forearm, just ag it could have pierced the heart had he a ward—a man so reach to Shunan's wished, and from the :round the,so-| bered braggart thanked his generous foe for the gift of a life. There were many incredible men who roamed that savage stretch be- tween the Missouri and the Sierras in the days when the West was a wilder- nese—Jim Bridger, as ruthless and cunning as any painted Indian; Peg Leg Smith, who beat off a war party single-handed and then amputated his hullet-mangled foot with a hunting knife; Joe Walker, able to whip a grizzly bear with his naked hands. Put of all that amazing company Kit Carson will ever remain the most in- credible. Almost womanish in appearance, even pnmmve.&ldrr was not his equal when it eame to enduring eold, hunger and fatigue; so gentle in man- ner that strangers thought him cow- ardly, yet deadly as a king cobra when occasion demanded; pdor always as far as money went, yet turning away in disgust from the greeds of the Cali- fornia gold rush; uneducated, unlet- tered, knowing only the waste places and their barbarisms, yet ever living eleanly and holding fast to certain in- stinctive refinements. It was in the Fall of 1826, when he was but 18, that Kit Carson left his Missouri home to go with some v. grant traders on the journey to far ¥anta Fe. All thought him 100 puny for the terriile march. But whe thirst tormented he alone made n whimper. When others weakened he g2ve them courage.

Again the Indians hovered | near both night and day, hopeful of picking off a straggler or stealing a bunch of horses, and again young Car- |mon was selected to lead one of those | fierce reprisals in which the trappers delighted. Yflr 40 miles he followed the trafl of the thieves, and, coming to their camp in the dead of night, crept like a snake to where the stolen ponles| | were tethered, and brought them off { without waking a redskin.
