THE WOMAN IN IT

py-OVerJOyeQ at receiving commas
sion to secure some prairie pictures
to Illustrate an article in the mid
summer number of the magazine. The
editor had given him his orders and
after a three days ride westward he
was amid a country of stretching
prairies, sod cabins and slow flowing
rivers.
The settlers, intent on the pressing
and inevitable ''business of life,'' con-
sdered him an enigma. They could
not conceive a reason why a handsome
and apparently prosperous young
man with an indefnable city air in
his clothes and bearing should be
among them. He made little attempt
to enlighten them but went steadily
on with his work searching for ma
terials.
Half his time was gone when one
evening being in new section of the
prairie he heard the sound of a banjo
coming from sod-walled cabin, and
sitting in the door appeared the play

ter of the plains She seemed created |
for his purpose. There must be wo-
man in his sketches, and her was the
one he wanted. A few words gained |
the parents permission to allow their
daughter to assist him, and he went |
home joyful.
"There must be nothing but the lev
ell plain and the girl in the first one,"
said he on the morrow, as he placed |
his new found model before him.
Her cheap broad-brimmed hat was
held by two bright colored ribbons,
and the saucy face met his squaringly.

such unconscious perfection.
1t was river view the following
day, sod house the next, and Will |
Jams had seven freehand sketches in
his portfolio, the seven being those
selected by his bright faced assistant
and three of them rejecting her own
lissome CURE in attitudes that proved |
her not insensible of her most grace
full postures.
A ''prairie schooner" the ponderous !
white canvas covered wagon used by
immigrants, was to figure in the next
drawing, and the two mounted their
ponies for ten mile ride to a new
settlers cabin.
He had drawn the wagon into lit
tie ravine, well sheltered by a thick
growth of cOttonwoods, and there the
work began. The model mounted the
drivers seat, and, with hair a-tangle,
welded with mimic vigor the. long

artists fingers flew over his paper at

Her nominations were cut short by
sound of voices in the ravine.
''They amt no use talkin','' said
speaker whose tones she recognized as
those of Emmett Mott; "hes got no
business there, an I'm in favor of
givin' him a warmin' that he'll remem-
ber.''
Guess he touches Emmett in a ten

girl having ridden nearer could dis

farm lads, or young men, rather, sit

in the river valley.

appreciation of the entire party, and
they began to eagerly discuss time
and manner of proceeding.

across the prairie spurred on at her
best gait homeward.

anything,'' she thought, almost aud
IDLY, 'Fbut it's too bad to have them
ruffians abuse him." Her tender heart
lost none of it's sensitiveness in think
ing of the artist and she hurried her
pony faster.
Her sole thought was to steal away
and warn Williams. How she got
through the evening she could not
tell, but at last her parents had gone
to bed and she was alone in the little
bedroom built on the side of the cab
in. She felt sure the marauders would
not venture out on their mission until
late, but it was now nearly eleven
o'clock, and she mad five miles to go.
She half regretted that she had not
confessed all to her father, but he
was a friend of Mott, and she feared
he would prevent her taking any part
in the evenings happenings.
Silently she crept along the cabin
and saddled the best riding animal in
the corral. Another she led behind,
and lashing both horses into run she
set out through the night.
1t was no ordinary ride and the fear
that she might be too late urged her
on. She remembered having heard
Williams say that his host had gone
to the county seat, forty miles away,
and would be absent over night, and
she trembled to think what might be
the fate of the slender artist in the
hands of the rough and heartless
westerners. AS she passed the spot
where she had heard the conference
in the afternoon she involuntarily
halted moment, thinking the same
place might have been made an even
ing rendezvous.
To her listening ear came the sound

as vehemently he expostulated that it
was not becoming in him, man. But
all the time the horsemen came near
er.
The girl made final appeal in
which her love for him she sought to
save burst forth; then hurrying across
the room with a breath extinguished
the lamp.
There was a hurried consultation in
the doorway, Williams felt quick
kiss on his hand and as the band of
prosecutors came near the house they
saw a dark figure, identified as their
victim by the stylish derby hat it
wore, leap to the saddle of waiting
pony and with the speed of the wind
strike out across the plain.
''There he goes, the rascal" shout
ed Mott, and plunging the spurs into
their ponies the cavalcade raced in
pursuit. Again and again the horses
felt the cruel steel, but the rider
ahead was we'll mounted and use their
best endeavor the breach between pur-
suer and pursued did not become mar

The dark cabin was left far behind
and the still night gave no light other
than that of the stars to guide their
race. A mile was passed, then an
other, and another and the single rid
er was still dim and shadowy in the
distance.
snake a rush. boys!" shouted Mott,
whose horse was becoming a little
short of breath.
"Can't catch up" replied one of the
men, ''but will try, and then shoot"
A sound of gutteral appreciation
greeted this sentiment and the riders
hands felt for the mems hips where
revolvers were carried by half the par
ty habitually, and by all on such an
occasion as this. It would be strange
indeed if out of all the shots the COM
pany could fire one or two should
not reach the mark.
But squirt was to be tried first, as
bloodshed had not been on the party's
programme until anger at being out
stripped in the race had inspired the
thought.
Whoop and hurrah hurried the jad-
ed ponies, spur and boot-heal beat
their TANKS and the rider ahead ap-
peared much nearer. They were plain
ly gaining.
The party had not noticed the direc-
ton in which the chase led them. A
long curve had been taken and now
they were near the river and the deep
er portions of the ravines leading
down to the valley. On sudden the
ground seemed to fall away from their
horses feet. They were entering one
of the ravines or sloughs and the tall
sunfowers and dead stalks of the pre-
ceding year were thick and substan-
tial.
A cry broke from the figure ahead,
and in a moment the pursuers were
violently refining up their steeds to
keep from trampling on the out
stretched forms of horse and rider.

After while as she looked back she
saw outlined against the quick fash
es the forms of horsemen a mile Or
two behind.
The band gathered by Emmett Mott
was on the way, and the results OF
previous visits of the band to persons
undesirable to it's members made the
outlook dark for anyone against
whom their anger was turned.
The flying figure on horseback
plunged forward, skirting piece OF
plowed ground, then through a field
of growing wheat, steadily nearing
the artists boarding place, where
light in the window was now plainly
visible.
The artist was more than satisfied
with his quest after illustrative mate

correctly fathomed the thought of the

Use of pleasure to the hour when he
should place his sketches before the
editor. His work in the West was
nearly over and he sat up far into the
night putting delicate touches on the
crude sketches and fitting them for

All this can be put into action much

animals were placidly loafing about the
