HERE is probably no field in modern American history more fascinating, in the intensity of its interest than that which is presented in America's rapidly diminishing frontier. So far as life in the vast Rocky mountain region and on the plains is concerned, the story has never been half told. Romance falls short of reality when it attempts to depict the careers of the little vanguard of pioneers, trappers and scouts, who moving always in front, have paved the way for the safe approach of the masses behind. The names of Old Jim Bridger, Kit Carson, White Beaver, Wild Bill, California Joe, Buffalo White, Texas Jack, Major North, Buffalo Bill and scores of others have become identified with what seem to be strange legends and traditions, and yet the lives and labors of these men form a part of the development of the great west.

Now that Col. Cody, or, as he is more famaliarly known, equalize Buffalo Bill. is in the city to remain for an indefinite length of time, it may be of interest to Chicagoans to read a bit of his life history as told to a reporter for the DAILY GLOBE yesterday by himself in his own modest way.
