Aaaaatfc Anecdote of a. rratnlarnt Nsw
York Brake Wbe Pi altera.
Sir. WU?im I. Travers is Wler,
banker, linaneier and oapiUlfi He is
roally interested in thi development of
tbo horse, and hia energetio efforts
the BtJlitiment cf the sport of hot
racing in the INortb. permftrie'Vy
la.rgely due. These lhffi would havo
given him a prowtesnce in the me
tropolis unquestionably, but the reputa
tion and fume he enjoys are due mora
ta his wit and humor than tf Tvtliing
else. This is all the vtrz remarkable
since he neitrt writes nor makes
speeches in public Ilia witticisms are
nsm-Uy made in private circles and for
Cnrronoy must deperd entirely nponth
circulation given them by tM listener
or the victim. His witwt kindly and his
humor mellow. DoMetimos it stings, yet
it is bp ttialicious, though it often borders
truth too closely to always be corn
fortablo for the object of the barbed
words. Mr. T ravers in h hative Of Bal
timore, and was a man growu M taar
ricd before ho left Maryland for the
metropolis. Mr. Travers is now touch
ing closrly upon sixty, though he bears
bis years well, lie is tall, slim and
wiry. Perhaps npon eeeinar ltt for the
first time the beholde!: feould be sur
prised, for Vvy ttime absurd process of
reasoning which is never justified we
essociate wit with shortness of statur
and humor with rotundity ot prison.
However one needs bnt glshoe at Mr.
Travers' face ft perceive the humor
lurking in the lines of the mouth which,
ever In repose, seems always on the '
point of breaking into a lanh-, .iiongb
it rarely reaohes i. iiis eyes are
soft and Wcily, withal sparkling
with that mischief which is irrepressible.
Apart from his wit, Mr. Travers is a
most interesting man, and his talk is
graphic, incisive and epigrammatic,
and over it aU fancifully plays his
humor, giTillg zest and point to all he
says. Because he has great reputation
for wit, humor and geniality it will not
do to assume that his mental qualities
are summed up with that statement. He
is a strong, wise and able man, well-informed
and a thorough man of business
and affairs He has an obstruction of
Speech which has undoubtedly kept him
off the platform, for other qualities
which he possesses would naturally lead
him there but for this stammer. Yet,
so far from its being an affliction, in the
nenee of its being a bore and annoyanoe
to others, it seems to sharpen the point
of his wit and to give zsst to his say
ings. In faot, much of the spice would
be losi if the stammer were gone.
- Anything and anybody falls subjeot
to his wit and he does not spare himself
or his stammer. Shortly after he had
removed from Baltimore to New York
city he met upon Broadway an old
friend from the former city of hi? resi
dence. They were glad to meet each
other, and fell into an easy chat.
Daring the oourae of the conversation
bis friend said:
"Why, Bill, you stammer more since
you have lived in New York more than
you did in Baltimore."
" B-b-bigger plaoe," replied Travers.
This delightfully illogical reason suf
ficed as an explanation.
Upon settling in New lork ho became
member of the stock exchaned.
During the call of the list he essayed
to bid upon one of the stocks and at
the same time another broker bid the
same price. A dispute followed as to
whom it should be awarded. His oppo
nent set up the claim that he had
named the price first. To this Mr.
Travers replied:
" It m-may be-be. Mr. F-premdent.
that M-mr. Jones g-got through b-bo-fore
I d-did, b-but I'll b-be hangid if I
d didn't b-begin b before he d-did."
Amid the roar of the exchange the
stock was awarded to him.
But Travers does not always coma off
first in his encounters. One day, after
tne close ot the board, he was going
uptown with several brokers. When
opposite old St. Paul's he saw a man
oneting for sale a number of parrots.
"H-hold, b boys," he said to his
companions, "we'll have some f-fun
Then addressing the man and pointing
to one of the parrots, he asked : " O-can
that p parrot t talk T
" Talk ?" replied the man, in tones of
great contempt. "If he can't talk
better than you can I'll wring hia blame
neck."
" C ome on, boys. The fun is p post-p-poned
until until another d-day," said
Travers. And later, as his companions
were still roaring, he said: " There's li
no n-necessity of saying anything ab
about this to the b-boys, and I'll pay for
thb b-bottle." X
Some time ago a young man made a
considerable buui of money in Wall
street under Mr. Travers advice. When
the money was turned over, the broker
told Lim that he would be very foolish
if he ventured his gains again and ad
vised him not to imagine that he had
solved the problem of success in Wall
street but to safely invest his money,
reserving a part to purchase a home far
his family. The ndvice was followed
and Travers assisted in the selection of
the house. Some time after the young
man was settled he met Travers and was
asked how the house suited.
"The house Is all right, Mr. Tra
vers," was the reply. " But I am very
much troubled with rats."
" G-get a c cat," stuttered Travers.
" I've had a dozen, but the rats
actually drive them out of the houre."
" G-get a d-dog," urged Travers. " I
anow where you o-can g-get a g-good
d dog. Harry Jennings is m-my friend
and he won't oheat yon. I'll g-go with
you."
80 thev set out toe-ether, and reach'
ing the dog fancier's plaoe, examined
tbe dogs for sale and one was selected.
Harry then put a dczen rats or more in
the pit and the dog waa thrown in to
show how quickly he could kill them.
The dog did dispatch them, one after
the other, until only one waa left. He
Was an old graybeard nearly as large
as the dog. As the terrier made for it, it
sat upon its haunches and caught the dog
by the lower lip instead of being caught
by the dog. The terrier yelped and
mm ahont the rit ehakinz and tremblinor.
but Mr. Bat held on firmly, terrifying
the dog out of all his canine senses.
Travers was running around the pit
(a groat excitement, and finally shouted
out:
" B.b-buy tha-b-B-ony the r-ral '
'tarry" erome is celebrated aa a
fet'ory-teller in New York circles. His
presence is always welcome, for Ije h.

"All right," aaid Trnvi, With an air
and tone, ot rt)?.t oraverv and courage
"Xn fcy if the r-rest will."
The story was never told, but Jerome
paid for the wine amid the laughter of
his friends.

places of life.
Standing at tbe club wiridow with
Travers a short l!mo ago, ho pointed to
a mn ttpon the opposite side ot the
blreet and said:
" The coincidences of lifo are singu
lar and frequent. OftwU inlnences

I h""5 tiiet him once this week I have
met him a dozen times. If I have met
him onc9 to-day I have met him four
times in different parts et the city, and
now I gaze out of the window and see
him sgftin.''
'P p-perhaps he's a d-d-deteotive,"
practically observed Travers.
The disgusted philosopher sought re
freshment from the steward.
A Deed of Honor.
Our little brave army on the plains is
both an explorer of the wilderness und
a guardian of the frontier. In order to
do its double work it requiros the
aid cf men who know both tue
Country and the Indians. Some
of these guides, such as "Old Bridger,"
Kit Oarson, Wild Bill and BafTalo Bill,
have become famous.
One of the best and bravest ot these
plains celebrities is Amos Chapmen,
who has been a government scout for
the last fifteen years. Hn is a sober,
quiet sort ot a man, and so heroic
that if he had lived in the age of chiv
alry every true knight wonld have
greeted him as a comrade. The lofty
manhood of the man is shown by one of
his desperate adventures, narrated in
Colocel Dodge's book on "Our Wild
Indians."
In 1874 General Miles, while opera
ting against the Indians, sent six men,
Chapman being one, with dispatches to
department headquarters. Une morning
as "the party was riding along every
man was wounded by a volley, and in an
instant the Indians appeared on every
side. Dismounting and abandoning
their horses the band moved to a "buf
falo wallow," a shallow depression in
the prairie. By working hard and fast
the depression was so deepened as to
afford cover. One of the men, Smith,
had fallen from his horse at the first fire
and was supposed to be dead. Seeing
him move slightly, Chapman said:
" Now, boys, keep those redskins ohT
me and I will run down and pick up
Smith, and bring him back before they
can get at me."
Laving down his rifle he sprang out
of the "wallow," ran with all speed to
Smih, seized and attempted to shoulder
him. "Did any of you ever try to
shoulder a wouudod man ?" asked Chap
man, when telling the story. "Smith
was not a large rcaa, one hundred and
sixty or seventy pounds, but I declare
to you that ho seemed to weigh a ton.
Finally I laid r dowa and got his chest
across my back and his arms around my
neck, and then got up with him. It waa
as much as I could do to stagger under
him, for he couldn t help himself a bit.
By the time I had got twenty or
thirty yards about fifteen Indians came
for me at the full speed of thoir ponies.
They all knew me, and yelled ' Amos I
Amos I we've gol you now "
"l puuoa my pistol, but I couldn't
hold Smith rm my back with one hand,
so I let him drop. The boys in the
wallow' opened on tho Indians just at
tbe right time, and I opened on them
with my pistol. There was a tumbling
of ponies and a scattering of Indians,
nnd in a minute they were gone. I got
Smith up aeain and made the beet pos
sible time, bat before I could reach the
'wallow' another gang came for me. I
had only one or two phots in my pistol,
so I didn't stop to fight but ran for it.
When I was within twenty yards of tjie
'wallow,' a little old scoundrel that I
had fed fifty times rode almost on me
and fired. I fell with Smith on top of
me, but as I didn't feel pain, I thought
I had stepped in a hole. The Indians
couldn't stay around here a minute, the
boys kept it red hot; so I picked up
Smith and got safe into the 'wallow.'
" 'Amos,' said Dixon, 'you are badly
hurt.'
" 'No, I am not,' said I.
" 'Why, look at your leg.'
" And sure enough, the leg was shot
off just above the anklo joint, and I had
been walking on the bone dragging the
foot behind me. In the excitement I
never knew it, nor have I ever had any
pain in my leg to this dav."
The surgeon at Camp Supply ampu
tated Chapman's leg below the knee,
more than two weeks after the receipt of
the wound. In a week thereafter I had
to take away his clothing to keep him
in bed. He is as still useful and aa
ready to fight as any two-legged soout.
