(Original.)
There nre men who may be said to
assimilate best with the condition of
war, pestilence or famine. They can
never do the drudgery necessary to a
small beginning. (Jive one of them
the^ssurance that by working in a
humdrum Held fur a few years lie may
secure not only competence, but for
tune, and he will not be able to bring
himself to suffer the restraint and en
dure the steady hdmr required. But he
will thrive under adversity.
Buslinell Bugbee was one of this
kind. He bad been given a splendid
opportunity by an uncle to work up
from a subordinate position to succeed
his uncle, who was childless, In the
management of the business, lie
proved himself Incompetent, only dis
tinguishing himself once, when the
store caught fire. Then Ids was the
only cool head about the premises, and
ho saved the place from destruction.
His uncle finally discharged him, and
he diiffed, doing nothing till, when at
flic lowest ebb. lie married. He said
he thought marriage would settle him.
Perhaps a better statement of the ease
would he tb t the condition of a mar
ch'd man with no Income would create
conditions under which he could act
At any rate it did.
He had a hundred dollars at the time
of his marriage, and he proceeded to
lose that at a game of faro. Then one
morning when lie and Ills wife had
nothing In fhe house for breakfast lie
started out to (lad some means of bet
tering his condition. Strolling along a
street aimlessly with Ills hands in his
pockets, he came to a stone front dwell
ing, from the stoop of which protruded
a red tlag, denoting an auction. There
Is something In this symbol when hung
from such a place denoting trouble.

house died or failed in hu'ducsg or met

necessary. Possibly it was some Hindi
thought that led Bugbee to enter, lie
found a splendid house with line furni
ture of an olden type that was t<> be
sold under the hammer, lie looked the
property over with the critical eye of
one who was considering whether It
was good enough for him.
A crowd was gathering, and present
ly the auctioneer mounted a table and
Called for a bid. Some one started with
an offer of $1*0,000, whic h was not half
the value* of the property. The bidding
was spirited till $;ui,nno was reached,
when all but two bidders dropped out.
One of these seemed determined to se
cure* what was evidently a bargaiu,
and the other after vying with him
till the figure of $34,(hni was reached
gave up the contest and withdrew.
At this Juncture Bushneil Bugbee
felt a stiff piece of paper slipped Into
his hand, and a downward glance told
him It was a hank bill. At the same
time a man standing next to him whis
pered to him to bid against the win
ner. Bugbee, who was getting hungry
for his breakfast, ol**yed. He raised
the other bidder to $.'*,M..r»no and, seeing
him als>ut to weaken, looked around
for the man who had employed him
for a dummy. He was nowhere to bo
seen. When he turned again lx
• u|>|fuucia leaving me room, atm me
auctioneer called to him:
“What name, sir?”
There was not the slightest quiver In
the successful bidder’s voice ns he an
swered. "llushnell Bugbee.”
“All right. 1 want a clun k for 10 i>er
cent of the purchase, or $3,8T>0."
At that moment a man came hurry
ing into the room to learn that the sale
was over and the property knocked
down. He got ids information front j
the auctioneer, nud Bugbee saw the
latter point in his direction. Before he
could remark upon the auctioneer’s re
quest for a check the disappointed man
approached him ami requested, to see
him in another room.
‘T*«> you wish this property for your
own use or ns a speculation?” nskod
t he late comer.
”1 would prefer to live in it." replied
Bugltec truthfully.
'•It belonged to my father. My broth
er lived In it, but speculated In stocks
land lost nil his money. I returned
this morning to find the old homestead
was nl*out to is* sold, l have made
money on the Pacific const and don't
want to see the house or furniture go
out of the family. Please name a
sum that you will take for your bar
gain.”
“Nothing would Induce me to stand
>ln a man’s way to recover the home
>f Ids ancestors,” said Bugbee. "If
\on will name n sum you consider
this home worth to you, 1 will accept
1 It.”
"This Is Indeed generosity," said the
•ther. “I have not asked what you
[mid for It, but bad I been here In time
I would certainly not have stoppl'd
bidding under $I»0.tioo. I will cheerful
ly give you Hint price for it and thank
you very much.”
“The favor Is mine," replied Bugbee,
“in the opportunity to restore one’s
home to him. Your check for $11,000
is all you are Indebted to me.”
The man drew a cheek h • »k from ills
pocket book, wrote a check for the
amount and handed it to Bugbee and
then drew another for $”**..Vmi, which
he gave the auctioneer. Pros dug Bag
bee’s hand gratefully, he loft the house.
Mr. Bugbee lias since become im

market that he is a bird of ill mien,
for lie never appears there unless

I such times a beautiful smile plays
about Ids lips In grim contrast with the
agitation about tiim. and lie gives or

ING HIM ( III I l|*K i \
On a bank of the Missouri river
in Sedar county, Nebraska, lives a
man ninety years old who has killed
scores of Indians. No one knows how
many •redskins'1 he killed He does
not know himself. Hut forty-three
years of his life were devoted to the
one effort of killing ns many as h«*
could In revenge for the massacre
of his three children.
Hanson Wiseman and his wife and
bnbv went from West Virginia to
northeastern Nebraska long before
the war. That country was then the
wild west.
In he enlisted as a member
of (Jen Stilly's Nebraska brigade,
and in spite of the warnings of his
neighIxirs he departed wit hthe troop.
I .ess than a year later Wiseman's
three children were murdered and
his cabin burned by maruding In
dians. Mrs. Wiseman had gone to
Yankton after supplies, leaving her
slxteen-year-old son to protect his
little sister and bahv brother. On
her return on the fifth day she found
tin* cabin a partial ruin and the boy
and the baby dead. Her daughter
was still alive, but with scalp gone
and tongue cut out she lived but a
few days. The mother, crazed with
grief, ran away.
The news reached Wiseman in
Montana. Without asking leave he
started hack to Cedar county. After
a loiif. search ho found his wife, hut
it was a year before she was able
to tell him the story.
Close by where the Wisemans had
lived was the hunting ground of
the Poneus. and the territory was
new ami then invaded by the Yank
ton Sioux, who were ever at contlct
with the Nebraska reds. Wlse’nian
was never aide to discover whether
It had been Sioux nr Pon< a that had
I murdered his family.
I’pon tlic graves of the children
in* swore the vendetta of the West
Virginian bill tribes and lie kept It
Just how many Indians he killed no
one pretends to know. A few years
ago a geologist discovered nt the
foot of the bluff' upon which the
children were hurled the remains of
twenty-four Indians. it was pro
nounced to he an Indian burying
ground, but Wiseman’s neighbors as
sert it was the old man's private
graveyard and the bodies were those
, of his victims.
Wiseman stalked Ids game in for
est and over prairie. lie always
hunted alone, and lie made ji a point
to pick off every stray Indian he
ran across. On one occasion, when
the government was moving the Pon
cas from Nebraska to tin* Indian ter
ritory, Wisconsin lay in wait at a
point close to Ids homo, and as the
tirst two canoes rounded the bend
lie opened tire with a Winchester,
lie killed several and maimed others
tefore the frightened reds could get
out of range. An investigation was
ordered by the government, but noth
ing ever came of it, as none of his
neighbors would give testimony
against him.
Just how- many savages he killed
during his hunting no one knows.
He did not notch Ids rllle, nor did
lie ever hunt In the open. He was
shot at hundreds of times and often
wounded, but escaped mortal hurts.
The implacable hatred he bnie them
was soon discovered by the Indians,
and his name soon became one to
conjure the little ones with None
of them ventured near hls home
Wiseman is ninety years old. ami
has lived alone for thirty year* in
a rude habitation along the Missouri
bluffs. His house Is built of rough,
unpainted oaken planks, with barred
windows and loopholes, a mtiiature
fortress of the frontier type He had

head by hls red enemies He lias
