but gaining in stcadiness as he shot.
Some Of the Indians who had gained
the opposite bank fired on the hunters;
but the Comanche is not good marks

went wild. Indian after Indian fell
from h.. horse TO be swept away by the
current, and twice as many wounded
ones rode or were helped out of the
water to be. carried off by their COM
rades. Once out OF the arroyo. the Com
aaches lost no time in getting out Of
range; and the last the two men saw Of
them. they were riding northward
toward the bluffs.
Edgar Catlett's first Indian fight mad
been fought, and the Comanches had
quit the field with the loss of several
warriors and ponies. Even had they
been inclined to follow up the hunters,
the arroyo, which soon was running ten
feet deep with water. would have held
them back for 81 hours at least. Les-
urely. hunting as they went. the two
men took their way back toward
Nenadita, where they arrived fort
night later, safe aud sound.
After his experience, Catlett decided
that the enterprise of stock raising on
the staked plain would be to too hazard
Gus. Instead he bought q ranch with
in a half days ride of schoolhouse,
and prcspered. His first foreman was
Sam Bronson, who remained with him
until called to Venadita, two years
later, to take the Office of sheriff of the
county.

knew that the showers which made the
grass green and covered the prairie with
flowers brought the Comanches. sure
Of feed for their ponies, from the reser-
vation, seeking human prey and booty;
and. without showing anxiety. he noted
every sign that might indicate their
presence.
To Catlett, with the keen Joy in life
that comes from health and out-of-door
exercise, the expedition was what he
called "a good deal of picnic" Bron-
son. In his quiet way, was very inter
esting companion. Sometimes as the
hunters rested at night before rolling
themselves in their blankets the guide
told stories. drawn from his own en-
perience Of Comanche and Kiowa
raids and fghtings; but as yet they
had seen no signs Of Indians. Bronson
spoke one night about turning back
toward the settlements soon. but Cat
lett was eager to continue the trip. So
IT was agreed that they should keep
on their course day or two longer.
and then. passing round some bluffs
that lay to the northward. return to
Venadita by another route.
The next day. about the middle of
the forenoon, they came to deep. dry
water course. such as the southwestern
plainsmen call "arroyos," leading
southward from the bluffs. Each bank
fell sheer downward 20 feet. and the
wide. sandy channel between was per-
fectly dry. Following an old buffalo
trail. the hunters found crossing
the only one possible for man or beast
within distance of many miles. Be-
fore descending into the arroyo Bron-
son hesitated, looking northward to the
bluffs. where dimness appeared in the
sky, elsewhere bright and clear.
"Therell be water running in this
channel before the sun goes down." he
said, as streak Of lightning quivered
beyond the bluffs. "There's a thunder
storm gathering about the head OF the
arroyo"
They crossed the water course and
continued on their way until noon.

attention, and he saw the guide draw

Keep the saddle on your horse and
see that it's well clinched. Don't look
around as if you suspected anything"
Bronson said. without lifting his head.

us TO do pretty quick Are you ready?
Get on your horse and take the back

Looking up from mid-stream, Catlett
saw the gathering food sweeping down

Bronson. as they came up on the prai-

The hunters had lost time in cross

Seeing the white men still running
away, the Indians. not hesitating,
dashed down in the arroyo one after
another. Then Bronson slipped from
his saddle. threw the bride rein over
the horses head, so that the animal
should not wander about. and with his
repeating rifle in his hand. ran back to
the arroyo.

and in half n minute more, from the
arroyo's brink his rifle was speaking

SPEAK KINDLY.

Speak kindly, for our days are all too
few
For any angry strife;
There is deep meaning, if we only
knew,
In our brief life.
No nobler mission can be ours, if we
A pang can stay
Or if amidst the rush of tears we see,
Wipe one away.
Speak kindly. Gracious words, God
sent, God given
Are never lost;
They come all fragrant with the breath
of heaven,
Yet nothing cost,
Kind words are like kind acts they
steal along
LIES hidden springs;
Then in the darkest storm some little
song
The sad heart sings.
Speak kindly, graciously, for all around
Are pains and smartS;
The very air is full of means and sound
OF breaking hearts.
Seek, seek to bind them up as once did
he,
The gracious Lord;
Then surely will his hand bestow on
thee
A bright reward,
s. TREVOR FRANCIS.
