The sun was setting behind Bald Butte
as the Johnstown stage approached the
five mile grade which led down to Stoney
Greek. The air was growing cool. The
rabbits, looking like sage-bushes in motion,
fitted about in the twilight. A colony of
prairie owls, posting themselves at intervals
along the road, accompanied the intruding
vehicle through their territory, the head
of the line rising as the stage drew near
and gravely flying down to take station at
the foot, until, the danger departed, they
solemnly withdrew. Down the grade the
stage went, with the driver on the brake
and the horses trotting loosely in their har-
ness until, with final jolt and lurch, they
fetched up on the bank of Stoney Creek.
The driver swung himself off the box, and
taking an iron pail out of the boot, pro-
ceeded to water his horses. The elderly
passenger emerged from the stage with a
tin cup, and scooping up some of the bright,
cold water from the noisy mountain stream,
calamity took it to the lady inside. Then,
helping himself, he said to the driver with a
laugh
Il jedge, you've been making mp time
Ye herded 'em along pretty lively down
that grade"
The lieutenant nodded his head The
position in which he found himself had
responsibilities that discouraged sociability.
Going to the other side of the stage he got
out his overcoat and put it on. 1t was a
garment made of rough, blue cloth, long
and voluminous, with cape that came to
the waist. Quietly slipping his revolver
from its holster, he put it in a narrow pocket
in the lining of the coat. This pocket, ap-
parently made for the purpsoe, dispensed
with the ostentatious and cumbrous method
of betting the pistol on outside. These
preparations for the night completed, he
mounted to his place and made the usual
warning inquiry: can set 2''
"If you don't mind, pard, said the pas
senger, ''Ill ride outside for ways and
give the lady a chance to stretch"
"I don't mind, said the lieutenant, and
the elderly stranger climbed laboriously tc
his side. The horses hoofs splashed and
the stage wheels crunch their way through
the stream, while the water fretted and
foamed noisily about the wet fetlocks anC
through the cleaned spokes. Then hoofi
and wheels came out on the soft bank, ant
the stage speed silently along the damn
bottom land Dark forms shaped them
selves into cotton wood trees and aide
bushes, and dissolved again into the dark
ness, while the fresh odor of the earth anl
growing things scented the cool night air
"Have drink p said the passenger
sociably, drawing out bottle.
'sNo, thank you" said the lieutenant
: Il don't drink on the box

One year has passed. Again the silent
City of Rocks has lost its sharp outlines in
the shimmering heat of July afternoon.
On the bench outside of the stage-house
door Nate the station-keeper, is sitting,
reading a month-old newspaper. On the
edge of the water-trough opposite him,
Frank, the helper, is mending horse-col-
lar. Presently Nate threw down the paper
and said, ''Well, I'll be durned p Frank
looked up inquiringly. Nate, rolling Gig
