Richard Smith. She knew that the out
law loved her in his brutal way and
hoped that she might persuade him to
assist her by pretending to return his
affection
The wretch is far too stupid to sus-
pect me, she reasoned, and will will
ingly lend himself to my purposes. !
only hope the expedition will not start
until l have had chance to try him.
So, hastily throwing shawl over her
shoulders, she left the cavern and cross
ed the platform toward the place Of
council She observed that the confer
ence had just come to an end, as the
officers were dispensing in various di-
rections She observed further and
the sight made her heart beat quickly
that Richard Smith was advancing
in her direction and that he was alone
"Out for a stroll my fair charmer?'
he inquired as he drew near.
'Yes; | have come out to see your
expedition start, " she answered, with
a pleasant smile,
ooh, we shall not leave until after
dark" said the outlaw.
And then, she returned timidly,
Il suppose l will be left alone to the
mercy Of wild beasts.
"Ye need have no fear on that
score, returned the outlaw, with a
coarse laugh. "A guard viii be left be-
hind to protect We.

with a scowl
The girl pretended to be annoyed at
the question and answered scornfully;
My lover, indeed am tired Of his
love. In fact, since I have been in this
place | have seen that he is not the
only man in the world worth loving
Here she dropped her eyes modestly
upon the ground
"What's that We say2" cried the out
law excitedly. "Ye don't love Robin
We've seen another more to your
fancy?"
Polly laid her little hand gently upon
his arm and beaming upon him coQuet
tishly answered;
YES; | have seen a man here whom
l would marry tomorrow if he would
only help mo to escape from Edward

The outlaws face became livid with
suppressed passion.
"Who is he? His name?" he cried
in a choked voice.
She drew back from him in alarm,
but, quickly controlling this feeling, re-
piled with an air of assumed confusion

CHAPTER VI.
POLLY RESORTS TO STRATEGY

CL1i iNi''CLNio ~ % MA NJ
During Pollys absence Robin had
been summoned to join the outlaws in
a glade where they had previously
gone to prepare their horses, so that
when she returned to the cave it was
deserted, Knowing that he was to ac-
company the expedition, however, she
OWNED the reason for his absence, and
sat down on a couch of bearskins to
ponder.
A hundred wild projects to outwit
the bandits purposes hurried one after
another through her mind, but all were
impracticable and had to be abandoned.
She began to despair, and then terri
BILE apprehension seized upon her.
What if Claudius Smith should put
his diabolical scheme in execution be-
fore she could invent a plan to thwart
it?
She was aware that Caleb Shurker
had been the cause Of her lovers i'm
prisonment and that his VIE had aban.

time when he was languishing in Jail

had been the means Of turning his
heart to her, Polly harbored no ill feel.
ings toward them. In fact, she pitied
Zadie profoundly for having sacrificed
herself to the commands of her tyrant
father, and, now that she was threaten
ed with disaster, was ready to run any
risk to save her.
But how could this be accomplished
In vain had she endeavored to devise
means. Indeed the more she reflected
on the problem the greater became her
bewilderment, until at last the utter
hopelessness and helplessness of her po-
sition inspired her to take a desperate
chance.
Her plan was to make a catspaw Of

to reflect a terrible idea occurred to
her What if she should not succeed in
making her escape after all? What if
her outlaw admirer should suspect her
design and join her before the appoint
ed time? She realized that if this hap
pened she would be completely at his
mercy, and the thought made her shud
der with horror
While she was absorbed in these
dreadful reflections Edward Robin re-
turned to the cabin, and she determined
to tell him what she had done So.
peeping cautiously out Of the entrance
to make sure that no listeners were
around, she drew him aside and whis-
pered hurriedly:
81 have taken a desperate step, Ed
ward, and l want to tel you all about
it. Please don t ask me TO explain my
reasons, but listen | have arranged
with one Of our captors to make my
escape from this place tonight. He has
agreed to furnish me with a horse and
as soon as the expedition starts l will
hasten to the place where it will be
awaiting me, mount it, and ride down
into the valley to warn the people Of
the coming Of these bandits | have

"You know who he is very well,
Richard, so there is no need Of my tell

At this he broke into horrible laugh
Of triumph that sent SILVER through
the girls frame
ooh, | know who ye mean now,
he roared ITS me, Polly-me Well
so ye want me to help ye get rid CT
Robin? Why, I'll kill him if ye say So

"No, don't do that" she replied
quickly, while her face grew white

well, then, listen, she went on
eagerly. Edward Robin will leave me
to go on this raid tonight, and | will

chance to escape from him. If you
manage to arrange it with the men
who will be left to guard me | am sure
| can find my way to the trail Have a
horse awaiting me there tied to tree
near the clearing, and as soon after the
expedition starts as possible will make
my way to the clearing secure the ami
nal and ride off to some place where
you can meet me.
"But I'll have to go along with this
expedition or else lose my command in
the band, " he objected.
"Of course you will, " replied Polly,
"for it would be cowardly to hold back
at such a time. What l mean is that
you are to join me on your return and
then we can go to dominic and get
married. Do you approve of my little

CHAPTER VII.
THE ATTACK on sHURKER' S.

Inn a. 1 ~ ~ C-f SLlO LNhiN =.
AS it was fully 20 miles to the house
Of Caleb Shurker, Claudius Smith de-
cided to start out at an earlier hour
than he had at first intended, for this
would enable him to advance slowly
and spare the horses for the return
journey.
So when Robin reached the glade
where the bandits had gathered he
found them already mounted for the
march Claudius turned upon him saw
agely.
"What! Must we be kept waiting
while ye make love, yarlet? Fall in the
ranks, sir, and see that ye behave with
spirit!''
Then turning to his men he shouted
"All ready, men? Forward"
There was a rafting OF arms, a tram
ping of hoofs, prancing and wheeling
of horses as the bandits formed in line
of march and Che cavalcade cantered
two by two fron. the glade. Placing
himself at its head, Claudius Smith led
the way into broad bride path that
wound through the forest and proceed
ed for about a mile at a rapid gait
Then the path narrowed and the men
fell in single line, picking their way
along q rugged descent with their
horses at q walk.
AS they descended lower and lower
along the mountain side the sun drop
ped from view and gradually the twi-
light deepened. 1t grew darker and
darker One by one the stars appeared
through openings in the trees overhead,
and at last it became difficult for the
men to desCry each other in the deep
ening gloom.
At last they reached the base of the
mountains and struck into an unfre-
quented byroad which ran in nOrther
ly direction. Here they again formed
two by two and proceeded at a canter
until they reached little spring that
gushed from the side Of precipice AT
this place Claudius Smith called halt
for rest and refreshment. The bandits
dismounted partook of a hasty repast
and after watering their horses at the
spring and quenching their own thirst
with copious drafts of spirits from their
canteens sprang into the saddle again
and resumed their journey.
About 10 in the evening they struck
into highway that wound along the
base of Shawangunk mountain. Then
the command for silence passed from
lip to lip, and they advanced with ex-
IRENE caution until they came in sight
of q great stone farmhouse which stood
at the right of the road. The shutters
were all closed. and it was evident that
the inmates were sleeping, Robin rec
ognized it at once as the home of Gale
Shurker. and his heart beat quickly
with desire for vengeance.
Captain Smith now called halt and
began brief whispered consultation
with his officers. Robin was about to
draw near to listen to the discussion
when it was rudely interrupted by the
furious barking of dog The faithful
animal had been sleeping on the porch
of the dwelling and, awakened by the
approach of the Tories, now came
bounding into the road, making the
welkin ring with deep mouthed warn
ings.

YACHT RACES OVER.
Augusta Had Good Bulletin Service
Each Day.
Unusual Interest Taken by Augusta. and the
Outcome is Pleasing.

The yacht races are over and now all
the talk will be of the past. They fin
ished in such a manner that they left
a good taste in the mouths of the lovers
Of sports. for the last race. like the first
one of the series, was a good fair
race with everything equal between
the two boats, and the American prov
ed to be the better one of the two.
1t is to the Associated Press, the
Postal Telegraph Co. and the Journal
that the interest in Augusta owes its
greatness Never before was there the
interest shown or the qualification of
interest so great as this year with the
Journal bulletin service announcing
the start, the progress and the finish.
The Associated Press furnished all its
patrons with bulletins of the affair,
these bulletins coming over the wires
of the Postal Telegraph Co. but being
taken by the regular operator, George
Boothby. The service Mr.. Boothby
and his messenger have given has been
unexcelled. as they have paid especial
attention to the work, realizing how
anxious every one was to have the lat
est news.
As soon as the bulletins have been
