THE NORFOLK WEEKLY NEWS-JOUKNAL : FRIDAY , JULY 2(1 ( , 15)07. )
IN RACE FOR LADY'S HOME THE
CHIVALROUS KNIGHT WINS.
COWBOY BEATS THE TRAIN
Romantic Story of the Manner In
Which Ranchman Skalfe Went to
the Rescue of Miss Dao Mills and
Secured Homestead for Her.
Rapid City , S. D. , Juiy 19. No
knight of old over served his lady bet
ter than has Kellemtm Skalfe , of the
famous Skalfo ranch , served Miss Dao
M. Mills , of southern Illinois , a total
stranger to him. Hiding his horse
across the plains forty-live miles In a
race against a railroad train ho saved
for her a homestead upon which she
had sot her heart and which another
had tried to take from her.
A less determined young man or a
horse not quite so lleet would have
lost the prize , as the competitor for
the fine farm arrived by train but five
minutes after the almost exhausted
horse of the cowboy stumbled with his
rider at the door of the land office In
this city.
Those who have heard of the Inci
dent arc Indulging In gossip of ro
mance which Is proving embarrassing
to the young man and the girl ho BO
gallantly served , still they are not ro-
sentlng It.
Miss Mills came to Washta , forty ,
five miles east of hero , to take up a
claim. She found ono much to her
liking and determined to make entry
upon It. Her purpose became known
and another homeseeker , a man , early
In the morning filed on the same piece
at Washta.
The young woman's disappointment
was ke'en and her tears attracted to
her the sympathetic cowboy , Uelleman
Skalfe. She told him her story. He
looked at his watch and said simply :
"I'll save It for you. That fellow's
filing here Is not flnal ; he must first
make entry at the Rapid City land of
fice. Give me your papers. "
Miss Mills quickly made her prelim
inary filing and gave the papers to
Skaife who said he would beat the
train to Rapid City and hand the pa
pers In ahead of the rival for the land ,
or kill his horse In the race. The
rival had not left town yet , but the
train was due. Skaife started , and In
less than three hours he had reached
his destination , while the train , which
had to go farther around , came puffing
in about neck and neck with Skalfe's
plucky horse.
He wired back to Miss Mills of his
victory and her delight was expressed
in a valuable and most approving man
ner of the knight who had won her a
home.
