This issue, No. 927 (July 29, 1896), contains the serialized story "Buffalo Bill's Bluff" by Colonel Prentiss Ingraham. In this installment, Buffalo Bill accepts a dangerous assignment from Loyd Winter, superintendent of the Overland Trail's most perilous section, to identify spies within the company's ranks and eliminate the road-agent gang called the Mounted Sports. A wealthy California miner plans to transport his daughter and treasure overland by coach, unannounced, to avoid robbery. Buffalo Bill undertakes reconnaissance on the mountain trail between Outfit City and Death-Trap Canyon. He is ambushed by the outlaw leader Captain Coolhand and warned against interfering.
