CHAPTER XIV.

"The Battle Of the Ghosts so Big
Roads people called it long months
after, fought late at night and far up
the slopes of the Elk range, was report
ed at Fort Frayne before the rising Of
another sun. The mysterious system Of
signaling which enabled the Indians Of
the reservations in Nebraska to know
the details of the Custer massacre before
they could be wired from Bismarck
was here in use again, and stragglers
from the band far back at Trooper creek,
and even the cowboys and ranchmen
carousing about Bunko Jim's in honor
Of the triumph Of their plans, knew all
about Farwell's overtaking the village.
Of Farrar's desperate stand and Wayne's
long gallop to their support before the
first tidings were whispered within the
silent walls across the stream or even
guessed at by the grim old soldier rous-
ing from his sleep barely ten miles from
the seat Of action. The first news to
reach the garrison came from Jimtown
and was laughed to scorn by members
of the guard. The next words went fear

occurred in that shabby little Office, one
that Frayne has not yet ceased to tell Of
and will long remember. Kurtz, the
operator. was clicking away at his in
strument as the doctor entered. 1--WE
got Laramie, sir, now,'' he answered Ill
response to the first question asked him,
land he says Buffalo knows nothing yet.
The first news ought to come through
the stage station near Allison's ranch
Colonel Fenton was over there last
night, but nothing has been heard this
morning. The operator is there now
"Wire to him then. Urge him to find
out whether there was fight in the
hills, whether Colonel Fenton is still
at Allison's, and get any authentic
news he can and send it here at once. !"
And even as Kurtz began clicking his
message there was some sudden check,
an eager light shot into his face, an ex-.
preston Of keen, intense interest He
let 60 his key and sat listening to the
quick beating of the tiny hammer Of
the instrument, then seized pencil and
began to write just as faltering step
was heard on the creaking woodwork of
the piazza. The door burst open, and in,
with wild eyes and disheveled hair, a
heavy cloak thrown about her, but with
out overshoes, without gloves, all oblivi-
GUS to the bitter cold, Marjorie Farrar
rushed in upon them.
''Tei, me instantly" she began, but
the { 1cror, an inspiration Selling him
as he read the operators face, turned
with uplifted hand, with reassuring
smile as Helen opened her arms to re-
ceive her, friend. There was moment
more Of breathless, han rowing suspense,
Of swift clicking at the table, of swift
skimming pencil, and then Kurtz sprang
to his feet and placed in Mrs. Farrar's
trembling hand the yellow brown sheet.
With eyes that seemed starting from
their sockets, she read. Then, with one
glad cry, ''Thank Godl Oh, thank
God!" threw herself on Helen's breast.
The doctor seized the fluttering paper
ere it it reached the floor and read aloud:
My congratulations on Wills gallant bearing
n his maiden fight. He merits the name he
oears. Expect us home tomorrow night, very
hungry. GEORGE FENToN.
But that was only part of the story.
What Leale said was true enough.
The Indians would not fight in the dark
except at long range, but that did not
prevent their taking advantage of the
dark for sudden rush that would en-
able them to burst through what they

knew, than in broad daylight, and so,
learning from their vigilant scouts
about where Farrar's men were deploy-
ed, they rode forward in noiseless array
until close upon them; then at given
signal and with full understanding that
no one was to stop for anything they
dashed forward over the snow at head
long speed.
The few shots fired whizzed by their
ears without checking them in the least,
though two Sioux saddles, by great
good luck, were emptied, and when the
pony of one low bending warrior collid-
ed with Farrar and keeled him over
others following behind raced through
just as he was scrambling to his feet,
and one of the riders had struck wildly
with his warclub at the dark object
and downed it again. The whole band
was out Of sight in less time than it
takes to tell it. The crash and sputter
Of hoofs could be heard as they thun-
dered away and then the loud cracking
Of rifle and revolver as the band reached
the descent to the canyon farther to the
west and found Farwell's led horses on
the bluff.
It was then, as the sergeants were
raising Will, stunned and bleeding, to
his feet that they realized not an instant
must be lost in fastening to Farwell's
aid, and, while one bathed with snow
the aching, bewildered head and an
other gave the young officer water from
his canteen, third helped place the boy
in saddle and gave the word to the men
to follow. Another minute and Leale's
men, led by their lieutenant, grasping
at the pommel all the same to steady
himself in his seat, went charging
through the wooded highland and tum
bled in on Farwell's assailants just in
the nick of time. With every minute
Will was reviving and pulling himself
together again, and by the time Wayne
and his fellows came riding in 10 their
support through the fire splitting clumps
of evergreen the boy was shouting his
orders and cheering his men as though
no blow had ever downed him. But
Wayne's coming relieved him of all re-
sponsibility on that side, secured Far
well in his grasp on the village, and
when at last Big Roads sullen, beaten
braves skunk away through the timber,
leaving the greater. part of the village
women, children, old folks and few
disguised warriors-in the hands of the
troops, Willis frantically aching head
reminded him that he was in need of
| attention, and then it was discovered
that he was literally bathed in blood
and it was time for him to faint from
| the loss Of it.
Heavens, what a to do there was at
Frayne when that boy was brought
home with the setting Of the second sun
thereafter, his head bandaged and his
shoulder sore and his hurts severe, and
| yet with the record that, despite it all,
| he had fought his troop like veteran
| -sslike a Farrar.' = Fenton handed him
over to his mother, after their long ride

"GENTLEMEN: * [ remember l

is entitled to our hearty gratitude

Besides this merited compliment
from the judge, the report Of the

other county officials, furnishes Still
another endorsement.

Charles Christopherson, who live in
Lyman county, few miles west of
Chamberlain, left his home and did
not return. Christopherson heard
of the boy being at the home Of a
rancher on the White river, but as
the boy had run away from home be-
fore, he felt no uneasiness, thinking
that the farmer with whom the boy
had taken refuge would bring him
! home the first time IRE came to to n:
In a few days he heard that the boy
had left there to 60 to the home Of
another farmer, but when the father
got to the latter's place the boy had
again left. A diligept search was
made without success, and the be-
lief was that the boy had taken ref
uge with the Indians. The other
day while Ole Margastad was riding
over the hills he found the remains
of boy in dry washout. Wolves
had eaten the flesh from the side of
the face and neck. The verdict of
the coroner's jury was that the
death of the lad resulted from ex-
posture to the weather. A few
months ago the boy ran away and
| followed some stockmen to Chamber
lain He was returned to his home
by City Marshal Gaptil, and at that
time declared he would never at
tempt to run away again.
The latest gold stampede is to a
point near Runkel' s sawmill on Elk
creek above Piedmont. A wood
chopper there discovered a black
formation cropping out which he
had an idea might carry some min
eral 1t was assayed by fire tests
and sampled by panning and was
found to carry about 500 worth of
gold per ton, The formation is a
queer one. It resembles quartz
somewhat, except that it is black
and decomposed. The Giscoverer
staked number of claims and 9th
err wood men and farmers are doing
likewise.
The city council met in regular
session Monday evening. A few
