Well, Duke couldnt ride a horse any more than he could walk a tight rope, but he wasnt going to let that stand In his way of getting a job. "Sure I can, he said. And right there, his troubles started. The big fellow told Duke he was a rodeo rider. Hed just finished up working for a wild west show and was on his way to join another one in California. He told Duke hed fix him up with a cowboy outfit and see if he couldnt work him into a job somewhere. That was more than Duke had figured on. , 1 mean, he might have bluffed his way through the business of riding a tame horse, but getting aboard one of those bucking bronchos they ride in the circus was another thing altogether. The more he heard about that job, the less he liked it But before hed finally made up his mind, the big fellow had staked him to a lot of cowboy clothes, and Duke owed him so much money that he just had to have a job to pay it back. Tit-Bi- ts , Washingtons Letter on Spys Expenses Sells for $2,000 Back in Revolutionary war times, George Washington wrote a letter to one of his commanders, General Talmadge, telling him that it would be difficult to raise $250 for expenses of an American spy, Enoch Crosby. This spy is believed to have been the original in James Feni-moCoopers book, The Spy. It was hard to raise the $250 needed for spying purposes in those perilous days, but the letter Washington wrote about it brought $2,000 in a sale In Philadelphia recently. It had been a part of the collection of the late Charles T. Jeffery, Merlon Station, Pa. Wall Street Journal. re BUY ON PROOF OF PERFORMANCE The Reward for Bluffing Is Usually a Show-Dow- n. Duke began hoping theyd turn him down when he applied for a Job but bucks they didnt The big fellow saw to that. He went to work at seventy-fiv- e ns GQ0 Rearing and Snorting the Horse Plunged Up and Down. a month and his keep, and since It was the off season and the show was In winter quarters, he managed to bluff his way through the first couple of weeks on the job. Dukes method was simple, but it had its kickback. He just bragged so much about what a good broncho buster he was that everybody took it for to make granted that he knew his horses. But all that talk was just going things worse for him when the big showdown came. Duke fooled the rest of the show, but he couldnt kid the big fellow. When he found out Duke couldnt ride a horse, he started teaching him as much as he could. But you cant teach a man to bust bronchos in two weeks, and thats about all the time they had before the show went on the road again. Duke had a streak of luck the first week or two the show was on the road. They forgot about him or something. Anyway, nobody asked him to ride a horse. Then, In Kalispell, Hont, the blow fell. And a tough blow it was, too. Dynamite Was a Tough Specimen of Horse Flesh. Kalispell was a great ranching town. A cowman in the neighborhood brought in a bad horse that went by the pretty name of Dynamite, and Dynamites reputation was so bad around that neck of the woods that the show offered a prize of a hundred bucks to the first cowboy that stayed on his back. And the first name drawn to ride Dynamite was you guessed it Duke Edwards. "I didnt say anything, says Duke, "but I felt myself going Into a faint By this time I knew how to mount a horse and ride it around the lot but Id never been on a bucker. It took six cowboys to saddle that brute and hold him so I could mount but I had to act as if I wasnt afraid. I climbed into the saddle, and then, with a yell, we were off. ' , "The horse, rearing and snorting, went down almost to his knees and bounced up again. I thought my head would snap off my neck. I felt myself fainting, but I stuck to the horse until we reached the bandstand. ' Duke Played a Solo on the Big Bass Drum. It took Duke and Dynamite just about forty seconds to reach that bandstand, but remember, thats quite a while to be on a bucking horse. It was at the bandstand that it happened. There, Dynamite put on an extra pound or two of reserve steam. He gave a last leap, kicked up his heels, and Duke went ' flying over his head. Straight into the bandstand Duke flew.. He could see the big bass drum coming up at him felt his nose flatten out as it hit the drumhead. Then everything went black until he awoke In the hospital with a . busted head and a big cut in his forehead. And did they fire Duke after that? Well thats the funny part of It Everybody said hed given that Dynamite horse one heck of a good ride. Duke stayed with that outfit for three years and rode plenty more tough horses. Then he went into the movies and rode in western pictures, so youre probably seen Duke at one time or another, on the screen. And that one experience, he says, has given him the only rule of success he knows. "First throw your bluff, ' says Duke, "and then make it good. WNU Service.
