Now it was the officers turn. The
same preparations were made in his case
as in the sergeant's. and he selected
stones Of nearly the same weight. Feel
ing that he must not be ontdOne by his
brave comrade, after leaving one stone
in line with the other he took the last
even nearer than any had been placed.
As he was about to drop it loud yell of
warning rang from the east side of the
rayine, and an Indian looked over the
log and fired his rife.
The bullet struck the falling rock and
sent shower of stinging splinters into
Raymer's face. He turned and fed, his
face streaming with blood.
With the discharge Of the Indians
weapon the priest and sergeant opened
rapid fusillade with their revolvers and
successfully covered the retreat to the
cabin. But all saw that they had taken
their last chance at obstacle dropping.
Several terribly long hours had crept
past since the party had seen Vio's
plumy tail turn the butte on her GRAND
to the valley, and Judging by tho time
it had taken the NaTajoes to bore tun-
mel under their log and undermine the
first sergeant's trigging stone it was es-
timated that two more hours must pass
before the next three distractions could
be removed unless the foe took a more
speedy method.
1t was fully nine miles to camp, and
the dog could easily reach there in an
hour. If she had arrived, help must be
on the way. But if she had been killed
by the besiegers before she reached the
north end of the butte or had been torn
in pieces by the gray wolves!
Should the log once reach the cabin,
although no one gave utterance to the
thought, all knew that no one would
survive the struggle. The men resolved
that the price of their lives should be
dear to the enemy.
While the defenders stood silently at
their posts watching the relentless roll
ing of the log or its silent waiting while
the obstructing stones were being un.
dermined, speculating in no very hope

did no other damage.
The second stone dropped by tho de-
Tenders was undermined and sunk, and
the log had paused at the third, less
than a hundred yards away. As it came
on Sergeant Cunningham, who had gone
up the chimney to replenish the fire,
said he could see the prostrate bodies Of
two warriors revealed beyond-good
evidence that both his and the padres
shots had proved fatal. If the next two
stones should be removed as rapidly rs
the others, all feared the Indians would
reach the cabin before the rescuing par
ty arrived.
The time, marked by the periodical
shots at the log, dragged wearily ON
when measured by their anxiety for the
appearance of the rescuing detail, but
few when they watched the unrelaxing
persistency with which the eenemymoved
toward the cabin. The hopes raised by
Vic's return were already weighted with
the certainty of their fate should the
soldiers arrive too late.
Knowing nothing of tho use to which
Raymer had put his dog, the Navajoes
looked upon the occupants of the cabin
as sure prey and were probably in no
haste to reach them. 1t was in their
nature to prOlong the visions of cruel
fate in the minds of their intended VIC
tins.
The third stone disappeared, and the
log moved with louder grating over
the gravelly soil to the last obstacle,
about 30 yards away, and stopped.
81 think, lieutenant" said Cunning
ham, 81 could hit those legs now from
the top of, the chimney"
"All right, sergeant. Go up and try"
replied Raymer. "a redskin with q
broken leg can do us Us little injury as
one with broken head"
The words were hardly spoken and
the sergeant had barely reached the fire.
place when, as if anticipating this
movement, two figures leaped over the
end of the log nearest the perpendicular
rock, ran to the corner formed by the
cabin and wall, and by the aid of the
dovetailed ends of the logs climbed
quickly to the roof, the shots of the
priest and lieutenant having no effect.
Instantly every Indian broke into a
warwhoop. From behind the log, from
the roof and from the forest to the east
of the ravine it came and chilled the
blood of tho whites.
AS if the movement had been pre-
yiously planned, the two warriors on
the roof began at once to throw and
sweep the brands and Goals of the bon
! fire down the chimney, where they
rolled over the floor, mingling with the
scattered straw and pine plumes. A
blanket was thrown over the top of the
chimney to prevent draft, and, the be-
sieged having closed doors and win
dows, the interior was soon filled with

way of illustrating the feeling of many
country gentlemen toward the projects:
One of these gentry entered the pre-
fect's office, having some complaint to
make, and proceeded to state his errand
in a pretty lofty tone and without taking
off his hat. The officer was equal to the
occasion.
