CHAPTER, X

Until she reached Campbe1l's ranch
Edith rode like one in 4 dream. She had
a blurred consciousness of dismounting
to open gates, with a haunting idea that
they had somehow become miraculouSly
multiplied; that never before had there
been SO many, but not until she drew
rein at the door did it occur to her that
she had been riding at a speed which
was unmerciful ON that hot morning.
The poor horse was painting painfully,
the hair Oh neck and rump furrowed
with moisture
Mrs Campbell exclaimed loudly when
she came to the door, her calico gown
pinned up with a reckless display of a
petticoat of the same material somewhat
dingier in hue, a mopcloth in her hand
explaining the occupation from which
she had been called. For the land s
sake aliveP' she eXcitedly cried, when
Edith had breathlessly explained her err
rand. ''Ain't the man got eyes in his
head? Seems like he cam know a little
bit, to go and get bit by rattler-a
man grown. OF course I'll go right over,
though land knows what good it'll do.
All creation can't do anything but pour
whisky down his throat and trust in the
Lord -
"But the boys-will one of them go
for a doctOr?" interrupted Edith i'm
patiently. eve will pay them literally
for the trouble if they can get somebody
here in time. -
''Why, now, one of the boys would
go and not ask a nickel for it either,
for that matter, though goodness
knows herself abruptly as
she saw the expression on her visitors
face. "Oh, well, if you feel to want the
doctor, you want him, 1 pose, but the
boys they've both gone after load of
wood, and Josiah h started this morn
in to ride fence. The stock has been
breakin out again lately, and''-
Then 1 must go myself, Mrs. Camp
be1l,'' inflexible resolution OH the girls

please?''
''Tel her what? That you've gone
where?'' gasped the astonished woman,
nervelessly dropping the mop.
''Tell her that have gone to Cheyenne
for the doctor,'' called back the other
steadily, not turning in her saddle.
but you never can! It's nigh Oh to 90
miles, and you don't know the wayH'
cried the good woman i'll excited expos
tuIation. And it won't be no manner of
use, Miss Ellery. You can't get doctor
hero i'll time to do anything, even if there
was anything to be done. - But Edith
was riding on around the turn in the
road as if she had been deaf.
There was a stretch of some three
miles of bad sandy road, up hill all the
way. She was calmer now, feeling an
relief in having a definite
work laid out before her, even though
she was not little troubled in respect
to the way, as to which she had only a
general idea to guide her. Nelsine had
once when they were driving
to point out at the fork in the road at
the top of the hill which of the two
branching away from each other was
the one leading to Cheyenne. Beyond
this she was sure of nothing, while she
was fully aware that to go astray on
that bewildering sea of plains would be
only too easy. And to go astray now,
when there was SO little time to spare!

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-The sudden
development of the movement to nominate
Timothy L. Woodruff as the Republican
candidate for Governor today overshadow-

tics.
Many rumors are in circulation, and sew

have been told, but party leaders who are
opposed to Woodruff say that he will be

There is much opposition 10 the nomina-
ton of the Lieutenant Governor by Re-
publicans who believe that stronger can
didate can be found. They recall the fact
that in 1898 Mr.. Woodruff ran i, 900 woes

Today it was asserted that Chairman
Hanna and Treasurer Bliss, of the National
Committee, believe that the Republicans Of
New York should nominate Mr.. Woodruff
for Governor, but 1t is said they hesitate
to interfere in party affairs in this State.
The development of the boom for the
Brooklyn man has had the effect of re
Yiying talk about forcing the nomination
upon Chairman OdelI. A large majority of

that he cannot be nominated without the
hardest kind of a fight.

war with Spain very many of the foreign
Governments are trying to buy II, but that
if the French Government was able to

the fact that want of transportation at low
rates had forced them to draw out OF the
New York market, which they formerly
