BUFFALO BILL IN A FIX. Saves the Reputations of Heroes.

A little chat with Buffalo Bill the other writes Townsend Percy, elicted the following bit of his experience in London among some lordly liars. " I thought," said Bill, "that I had killed a few bear and buffalo and mountain sheep and antelope, and had a few interesting scuffles with man and beast in my time; but the accounts of wholesale slaughter and Indian fights I find I'm expected to indorse as having taken place under my eyes are just enough to take the sand out of the biggest liar between Omaha and 'Frisco. Before I got into the show business, as you must have suspected, I conducted- that's the word now- a great many parties of noble young Englishment all through the Black Hills, the Yellowstone country, the Little Missouri and Little Big Horn countries. Well, they were mostly quiet, good- natured fellows that kept me shooting to get skins, antlers, and such like for them, and I prided myself on keepin' them out of trouble with Injuns and grislies and such. I find these quiet chaps have come home and figured as heroes of every kind of scrimmage; every skin was the natural focus of a stack of lies, and every horn is hung with a dime novel of the most sensational kind. And I'm expected to back 'em all up and add more gory particulars. It's rough on an honest frontierman, but I do it." " What, sustain wholesale lies?" "Wal, this way," said Bill with a faint blush. "It's mostly a young gal with glowin; eyes who's been lied to that asks me, and I ain't got it in me to take her vision away from her, and then," he added in a dreamy way, "It's all goin' to help the show."

ONE OF BUFFALO BILL'S TROUPE IN TROUBLE.

On Wednesday, at the Thames Police Court, London, Jack Ross, 29, a man of colour, and described as a member of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, was charged with being drunk and wilfully breaking a plate-glass window of the Old House Received public-house, James street, St. George's in-the-East. Mr. Henry Stark, the proprietor of the public house, said that on the previous night Ross and three or four men came into the house and began conversing about Americs. Ross made a bet that the witness could not tell what his pants were made of, and a bet of 10 dollars was laid. Ross pulled out some gold, when some of his companions snatched the money out of his hand and ran off. Ross, in his hurry to follow, deliberately jumped through a large plate-glass window, when he was seized by a constable, and taken into custody. Mr. Lushington: You don't suppose the man deliberately intended to break the window. The prosecutor: I don't know. Mr. Lushington: It was clearly an accident. If you have any claim against the defendant it must be enforced in the County Court. (To Ross): You are discharged.
