Ready Tuesday, June 3, lovers of the Romance of the Wilderness and Plains have a story that will enlist their attention to an unusual degree, viz.:
THE LONE CHIEF; OR, The Trappers of the Saskatchewan.
BY JOS. E. BADGER, JR.
The Lone Chief is the noted Omaha “Blackbird,” who takes the long trail to the far Saskatchewan in pursuit of an object which sustains him in hours of awful trial, and awakens our warmest admiration.
His unexpected friends—a band of trappers—become involved with him in the meshes of a conflict with the fierce Crees of the Plains.
The old trapper, Ben Duncan, a second edition of Old Nick Whiffles, is a splendid character, equally handy in scrimmage, on the trail, in the camp, or at a yarn.
That there are women in the case does not lessen the interest taken in the Chief’s affairs by the two younger members of Old Duncan’s party, who, even in that remote region, find that the course of true love never runs smooth.
A strangely beautiful Cree girl is drawn into the foreground of the story to become its heroine and—something else!
