This issue contains two stories featuring Young Eagle. In "Painted for War," tensions escalate between tribes and settlers as Young Eagle attempts to prevent violence, only to be hunted by his own people after intervening to stop an attack on white settlers. In "Young Eagle's Protege," as frontier relations develop, Young Eagle visits Fort Walters and is arrested upon the arrival of Colonel Webber; a week earlier, Young Eagle had befriended a young half-Indian boy at the fort, and when a new commanding officer arrives, Young Eagle must convince him of the boy's trustworthiness and his own peaceful intentions.

Tribal War
6 pp · Western-Frontier

Young Eagle's reputation faces a serious test when horses mysteriously vanish from both white settlers and Indian tribes alike, with suspicion falling squarely on the Sioux warrior himself. Determined to clear his name and prevent a war between neighboring nations, Young Eagle must track down the real culprits—even as both the cavalry and the Arapahoes close in, ready to believe the worst.

Painted For War
6 pp · Western-Frontier

In a valley already tense between settlers and tribes, outlaw Jeb Regan and his gang spark a powder keg by committing violent crimes and framing each side for the other's actions. Young Eagle sees through the scheme and races to stop the bloodshed before hatred ignites all-out war, though he finds himself hunted by white men and cast out by his own people for speaking against the conflict. A frontier tale of one young man standing between two communities on the brink of destruction.

Young Eagle's Protege
4 pp · Western-Frontier

When Colonel Webber arrives at Fort Walters with his family, his rigid distrust of Native Americans threatens to shatter the hard-won friendship Young Eagle has built with the garrison—especially when the Colonel's son Billy runs away and seeks refuge with the young warrior. As misunderstandings spiral toward violence, Young Eagle must find a way to prevent bloodshed and prove that peace between the two peoples is possible.

Untitled Humor story

Cheerful Charley
Drugged
0.5 pp · Humor

In this humorous Wild West tale, a character discovers what appears to be a man passed out in an alley and assumes he's drunk, so he hauls him to the sheriff's office for examination. The sheriff quickly determines the man hasn't been drinking at all—he's been drugged—leading to a punchline that upends the whole situation.

The White Warrior
5 pp · Western-Frontier
White Warrior

Orphaned when his wagon train is massacred, young Dick Carlin is adopted by Chief Horned Owl and raised as a Sioux brave, eventually earning the name White Warrior through courage and skill. When conflict erupts between the tribe and white soldiers, White Warrior finds himself torn between two worlds—rejected by his Indian family as untrustworthy, distrusted by the cavalry as a spy—and must find a way to bridge the divide before bloodshed becomes inevitable.

A New Sprinkler System
0.5 pp · Humor

Loonie Les decides to water his flowers with an empty sprinkling can—because they're artificial flowers, naturally—and later attempts to send a telegraph consisting almost entirely of the word "galumph" repeated over and over. When the telegraph operator points out he's one word short of his allotment, Les refuses to add another "galumph," insisting that would be silly.
