mand the rapid crack of pistols broke
the stiffness of the night, and a score of
bullets sped after the retreating forms
of the cattlemen. The fire was instantly
returned and the whiz of bullets sounded
about the settlers heads.
Then the form of a man arose from
the grass in front of the settlers, stag
gered step or two and then went down.
Its Ike Bakerr' cried Simon Riggsby,
rs they hurried forward and gathered
around the PROSTATE man. And so it
proved.
Strong arms bore the wounded man
back to the inn. where he was laid upon
a bed and everything possible done for
him. but all saw that his wounds were
mortal and that he could not last long.

Maddened at the sight of their dying
comrade, who had risked and lost his
life for them. the settlers were about to
pursue the enemy, but they were re-
strained by Riggsby, who saw plainly
that such an action would be just what
the cattlemen would wish.
Its no use boys" he said with
groan. Them devils is jist waitin in
the grass ter ambush us if we give em
a chance. They air four ter our one,
and it amt no use ter come ter an open
fight on the prairie with en-"
The dying man who had been uncon-
scious when brought into the house soon
revived sufficiently to speak to those
gathered about him.
Its all over with me, boys" he said
in weak voice. speaking with great
difficulty. "l-l-have done my best

whisper, and for several moments he lay
as if already dead.
The men standing about him with
white faces brushed the tears from their
eyes, while Mrs. Riggsby and Fanny,
kneeling by the bed, were weeping softly.
each holding hand of the dying man.
Presently he opened his eyes and spoke
again, but it was plain that his mind was
wandering.
I'm goin ter the settlement ter bring
the boys" he said. his voice seeming to
grow stronger as he spoke. They amt
goin ter keep me housed up hyar like a
rat-they air not goin ter see me-I'n
crawl through the grass an-thar they
air!-but they amt goin ter take me
alive
He threw up his hand as if to use
pistol, then sank down and in few mo-
ments he had breathed his last.
For long time no sound broke the
stiffness save the low weeping of Mrs.
Riggsby and Fanny and the moan of the
night winds without. The roughly clad
men stood silently about the bed, while
the tiickering light CLEANED upon the
tears that ran down their bearded faces.
Poor Ike" said Riggsby in choking
voice, "he risked his life for US. an-an
lost it" and turning away he crossed
the room and stood by the window, his
form shaking with emotion.
Mrs. Riggsby and Fanny were led
away and the dead was left to those
who We're to prepare it for burial.
The sad and tragic ending of Ike
Bakers heroic attempt to pass the enc
my's lines fell like IA pail over the little
garrison.
Already others had volunteered to
make similar attempt, but Simon
Riggsby, who had been elected leader of
the settlers. thought it best to adopt
some other method. Already one life
had been sacrificed, and he realized that
any further attempts to leave the inn
might result in similar calamity.
A conference was held by the men
and it was decided to remain passive
but on the alert till morning, when some
cause of action would be decided upon.
Meantime Fanny Riggsby had de-
scended into the cellar and thrown her
self upon the bed. which she had spread
in the corner. The startling and tragic
events of the past few hours had reused

IN her breast many stronger and con-
tiicting emotions. AT times she would
be oppressed with horror and name
less fear would take possession of her as
she reflected upon the situation of all
those garrisoned at the inn. Then her
spirits would rise in rebellion against
the besiegers, and she would feel strong
impulse to combat them in some man
ner as she thought of the heroic life they
had taken that night.
IF were only man." she muttered
vehemently, I'D
She stopped abruptly and clinched her
hands together in mute despair. Sud
denly some thought seemed to strike
her. and rising quickly from her hard
couch she paced up and down the mar
row chamber with a quick, energetic
step.
For several minutes she walked rest
lessly to and fro in the darkness, strange
thoughts running riot through her brain.
something must be done, she said,
half aloud, her breath coming in sharp
drawn gasps. ''l-I-am only a girl.
but I'll do It'll"
She stopped abruptly and listened.
No sound came to her ears save the NOV
ing of the men on the floor above and
the occasional note of some mocking
bird. which poured its trill of varie-
gated song upon the air of night.
"1hey will not miss me" she said.
STOPPING to pick up shawl which she
had thrown upon her bed. "Ill go, and
if | fail Poor Ike! | am no better
than he-and he has just laid down his
life for us all"-
She hastily threw the shawl over her
head, and crossing the chamber she
halted by narrow ground stairway that
led from the cellar to the outside of the
house. After listening intently for a
few moments she stole cautiously up the
stairway and noiselessly lifted the door
Thrusting her head through the opening
she glanced quickly about the place, but
no one was in -;ht Then, crawling
through the narrow doorway, she quick
ly threw herself into the grass that grew
close to the wall Keeping herself low
in the grass she crept forward swiftly
for fifty yards before she paused. Then,
lying flat upon the ground, she listened
intently to ascertain whether or not her
departure from the house had been dis
covered by her friends.
Glancing backward she could see one
of the guards not twenty yards away,
crouching behind bunch of sumachs,
but she was convinced that he had not
seen her. She could hear the tumultu-
ous beating of her own heart as she lay
there in the wet grass. She hardly dared
to proceed for fear the slightest move
! ment might lead to her discovery.
She knew that should her intentions
become known to any one at the inn she
would be compelled to abandon her haz-
ardous undertaking. She therefore had
a double chance of having her plans
frustrated, and was compelled to not
only guard against being discovered by
the enemy. but must also avoid the
watchful guards at the inn.
After assuring herself that her depar-
ture from the inn had not been discov-
cred. she began to crawl cautiously for
ward through the grass, listening to
every sound with painful throbbing of
the heart.
