CHAPTER w.

"No1r, then, GOD speed you'
If the noise of the battle is deafening,
the silence which follows is oppressive.
There is more menace in silence when
peril threatens than in the roar of can
non.
As night shut down over tho belea-
guered white men ON the little plateau a
few boosted and oXulted over the sue
cessful defense, but the greater portion
We're silent and anxious.
The red man is wild beast of higher
type than the tiger. but he has all the
instincts and characteristics of the
dreaded animal. The tiger sleeps by
day and roams abroad when darkness
comes. The Indian does the same when
left to his own will if circumstances do
not prevent. His vision at night is AM
mal-like and his scent is lceucr when
the sun goes down,
The captain passed around the forti-
fication as soon as the firing died away
10 see what loss had been sustained.
Ono man and two horses had been
slightly wounded. lie gave orders that
one-half Of them should prepare them
selves such a meal Us it was possible to
Eet without fire, and then go back 10

half. There was no danger of an iiime-
diatc attack The Indians had received
a setback which would dampen their
ardor for several hours to come

fore coming within rife range. At the
distance of Il mile away Joe pulled his
horse down to a walk and thus went
forward, listening with bated breath for
some sound to locate the camp.
The soft footsteps of his horse alone
broke the mighty silence. Not so much
as the chirp Of n cricket came to him
from out the darkness.
When yet half mile from the forks
Joe's heart sank within him. If there
was n camp near at hand his horse
should make some sign. The Indians
dog and pony arc his sentinels as he
sleeps.
There was grove Of cottonwoods at
the forks, and around and about was
grass in plenty. 1t was the spot for n
camp, but there was no camp. The
scout advanced at a steady walk until
he reached the edge Of the grove nm
challenged That settled it. The party
had not arrived lie almost cried out
in his disappointment, and for the next
few minutes he knew not what to do.

himself cor they may be only half a
