beautifully for about square, when the bridge
across the creek was reached. Then something
| retarded the free passage Of the wire in the

around smashup, attended with hurtful injuries

Henry Weeden, who on Friday night was

Uncle Sam Philip did his utmost and
WAS gaining fast, but the distance was
too short. Arizony, waving her hand,
disappeared among the trees and under
growth hy the river with Stirling still II
rom! sla;r To the Lar.
Seeing his chance gone he pulled up
and rode leisurely, laughing to himself
the while, until a shrill scream woke the
echoes amid the trees and startled his
very soul. Squirting forward, he dashed
through the timber to the river bank,
and his heart grew cold as he saw Ari-
zony's hat come floating by, but appar-
emily no other 81 IN visible either of the
girl or her pony.
Then, like flash, he thought of the
quicksands above the ford. None but
those who have witnessed their treach-

Gus tenacity of these sands of death"
Guilelessly smooth and yellow-like a
friendly hand lying open beneath the
shallow waters-imperceptibly yet in
exorably they suck down their victim,
whose struggles only assist the process
of entombment. The grip never relaxes,
nor does the tawny horror ever give up
its dead.
Stirling dashed into the stream and
looked around. A dizziness made him
reel for an instant at the bare idea Of
that laughing, madcap vision of flying
skirts and curls now lying contorted and
dumb beneath the rivers bed. Impossi-
BILE! Too brief time had passed for 80
utter consummation. Hark-ah, what
welcome sound! He heard her calling
him by name.
Some distance above the ford a large
tree-freshly blown down-lay with its
great top half submerged and the shall
low waters ripping all around. Half
hidden among the leaves he saw Arizony,
clinging to large branch. Browser was
not in sight. The girl was wet and
draggled. He rode round above the fall
en- tree and cautiously picking his way
came to her side and put out his hand.
Now" he said, reach out; place
your foot on mine. Up you go!"

CHAPTER II.
FORD AND oUICKsAND,


Arizony presently returned with a
brisk little broncho, upon the back Of
which she placed one Of those old army
denominations known as q Mcclellan
tree" Then she shortened one stirrup
and flung the other across the saddle.
II must feed my chicks, poor things"
said she. suiting her actions to the words
and with sigh. The snakes and pos
sums will finish 'em up before ever get
back, l know"
After that she fastened the door of her
dugout. laid a pair of saddle bags upon
Browser's back, and mounting q tree
trunk leaped to her seat before Stirling
could offer assistance. While he mount
ed she rode to the edge Of the timber and
looked back regretfully upon the scene
she was leaving.
If you weren't looking. I'd cry-that's
what would" said she as he rode up.
ut amt much Of q home. yet it's the
only one I've ever had that seemed like
mine"
Something like tears moistened and
softened the glitter Of her dark eyes, yet
she dashed her hand impatiently across
her face. But before Philip could SYM
pathize she piled some small spur 90
effectually that Browser, switching his
tail. dashed madly away, nor paused for
half a mile. Stirling followed more
leisurely. while the yellow cur trotted
sullenly in the rear.
BY the time Arizony drew up at the
summit Of brown swell Of the prairie
the moisture had vanished from her now
dancing eyes. In her face was deli
cious combination Of color and sauci-
ness as she greeted him In o bantering
tone.
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1893-06-30

Then, to his surprise, she burst softly
into tears. He adjured her again to 60
home, not knowing what clso to urge.
but choking back her sobs she pushed
him onward.
Mo- cannot" she faltered. II have
no home hut with these people-they're
good to ine-Burl. too, is good to me in
his own way. Don't notice us, leften-
ant. And don't quarrel with Burl. He's
dangerous"
She left his side abruptly. A moment
later he saw her leading Yates out from
among the soldiers. They disappeared
in the gloom beyond the freight, nor
did the belle of the ball return to the
scene Of her earlier triumphs, though the
dancing went Oh until morning. Stir
ling himself was already wearied. After
giving few directions to the sergeant
under him, whom he now left in charge,
he mounted his horse and rode away to
his quarters Mt the post.

Arizony whistled at the first sound OF
