the corporal, handing up the reins
There's something out here this brute
SHE'D at and I can't get him near it
again. With that he pushed out to
the front while the others listened ex-
pectant A moment later match was
struck, and presently burned brightly
in the black and breathless night.
Then came the startled cry:
my God, lieutenant, it's Corporal
Donovan and his horse-both dead
And even there Mr.. Drummond noted
that Bland was about the first of the
column to come hurrying forward to
the scene.
Ten minutes investigation threw but
little light upon the tragedy. Some
stumps Of candles were found in the
saddlebags and packs, and with these
the men secured the plain for signs.
Spreading well out from the center,
they closely examined the sandy level.
From the north came the trail of two
cavalry horses, shod alike, both at the
lope, both draggy and weary. From
the point where lay Donovan and his
steed there was but one horse track.
Whirling sharply around, the rider had
sent his mount at a laundering gallop
back across the valley; then 100 yards
away, in long curve, he had reined him
to the southeast. The troopers who
followed the hoof marks out about an
eighth Of a mile declared that, un-
wounded, both horse and rider were
making the best Of their way toward
Moreno's ranch. Farther search, not
so yards to the front, revealed the fact
that at the edge Of little depression
and behind some cactus bushes three
human forms had been lying prone,
and from this point probably had sped
the deadly bullet.
''Apaches, by God" muttered one
of the men.
''Apaches, your grandmother was
the sergeant's fierce reply. Twill you
never learn sense, Moore? When did
Apaches take to wearing store clothes
and heeled boots: There's no Apache
in this, lieutenant. Look here, sir, and
here. Move out farther, some Of you
fellows, and see where they hid their
horses. Corporal Donovan was with
G troop down the Gila last week, sir.
They were to meet and escort the pay
master most like. It's my belief he
was one Of the guard and that the am
pulance has been jumped this very
night. These are road agents, not
Apaches, and God knows what's hap
pened if they got away with Patsy.
Sure he was one Of the nerviest men in
the whole troop, SIR
Drummond listened, every nerve
a-tingle, even while with hurried hands
he cut open the shirt at the brawny
throat and felt for futtering heart beat
or faintest sign of life. Useless. The
shot hole under the left eye told
plainly that the leaden missile had
torn It's way through the brain and
that death must have been instan-
taneous. The soldiers arms and ac-
couterments, the horses equipments,
were gone. The bodies lay unmuti-
lated. The story was plain. Separated
in some way from the detachment, Don
ovan and his companion had probably
sighted the signal blazing at the pass
and come riding hard to reach the spot,
when the unseen foe crouching across

their path had suddenly fired the fatal
shots. Now, where was the paymas-
ter? Where the escort? Where the
men who fed the signal fre-the fire
that long before midnight had died ut
terly away? Whittier should the weary
detachment direct its march? Ceral-
vo's lay dozen miles off to the north
west, Moreno's perhaps eight or nine
to the southest. Why had the escaped
trooper headed his fleeing steed in that
direction? Had there been pursuit?
Aye, 10 minutes search over the still
and desolate plain revealed the fact
that two horsemen lurking in sand
pit or dry arroyo had pushed forth at
top speed and ridden away full tilt
across the desert, straight as the crow
flies, toward Moreno's well. Even
while Drummond. holding brief consul
tation with his sergeant, was deliberat-
ing whether to turn thither or to push
for the signal peak and learn what he
could from the little squad Of blue
jackets there on duty, the matter was
decided for him. Sudden and shrill
there came the cry from the outskirts
Of the now dismounted troop clustered
about the body Of their comrade.
Another fire, lieutenant! Look
out here toward the Santa Maria. "
The sergeant sprang to his feet,
shouldering his burly way through the
excited throng. One moment more and
his voice was heard in louder, fercer
tones;
s.No signal this time, sir. By God,
they've fred Moreno's S ranch!''

CHAPTER III.

Shortly after sunset on this same hot
evening the sergeant in charge of the
little signal party at the Picacho came
strolling forth from his tent putting at
;s battered brier root pipe. Southward
and a few hundred feet below his perch
the Yuma road came twisting through
the pass, and then disappeared in the
gathering darkness across the desert
plain that stretched between them and
the distant Santa Maria. Over to the
east the loftiest crags of the Christobal
were still family tinged by the last
touch of departed day. Southwark
still, beyond the narrow and tortuous
pass, the range rose high aid precipi-
tous, covered and fringed with black
masses Of cedar, stunted pine and juni-
per.
North of west, on the line of the now
invisible road and far out toward the
Gila, faint light was just twinkling.

The Many UncOmplaining But

They Go Without Rest to Make Sure Of

Cry Out With Pain.
FOR MEN MUST WORK.

For eight out Of every ten who ever
take vacation, there remains behind
some hard working, accomplishing toiler
who is only too happy if he can provide
rest and a change for those dear to him.
And it is lucky if in many cases this
self denial does not get to be regarded as
a duty, and the thought of rest for
ones self thing impossible
The number of such overwrought men,
who simply toll right on without so much
as a two weeks respite year, is surpris
mgly large,
Grateful wives and children should see,
then, that these cheerful and unselfsh
fathers and brothers do not 'work them
selves to death" Signs of failing strength
and nervous weakness, that none so
quickly detect as they, should be promptly
and firmly combatted. A thorough feed.
ing of worn-out nervous tissues by Paine's
celery compound, soon does away with
every form of nervous debility and ex.
haustion. This great nerve and brain
inViEOrator, Paine's celery compound, sup
plies rich material for the repair of all
the nerve tissues 1t makes the thin,
used-up blood again capable of feeding
the system, aud purihes it of all humors
that work harm to the body,
There are countless men so absorbed in
business that they disregard the indica
tions of nervous weakness and think that
their neuralgia headaches, and rheuma
tism are tiides. 1t is the duty of those
members of the household who see this
gradual decline from health to insist on
building up of the rundown" system
and strengthening of the nerves and
brain by vigorous tonic like Paine's
celery compound.
In every city in this country there are
homes that have escaped sickness and
misfortune because some prudent member
has known the value of Paine's celery
compound for strengthening nerves and
brain, purifying the blood, and building
up the vigor of the tired body. For over
worked men, for nervous, rundown
women, in blOodless condition, Paine's
celery compound is the regular prescrip
tion of family practitioners all over the
country. 1t has permanently freed thous
ands from neuralgia, rheumatism, dys
pepsia, kidney troubles, and BLOOD
diseases by invigorating the body, purify
ing the blood and feeding the nerves
Nothing gives strength like Paine's celery
compound.
