instantly the men on guard around the
mine made rush in that direction.
AS they did so some so shadowy fig
ures rose up from behind the rocks
and, running swiftly and yet as silent
ly as hounds, came dashing into Sono-
ra on the unguarded side. They made
straight for the tabled La Cananea,
and with no one to dispute their prog
ress soon would have been in pos
session of the prize, when suddenly
from the window of little house that
stood near the mine came the crack
of rifle, and one of the raiders went
down.
Then came bullets from the house as
fast as the unseen person there could
work the eiector of repeating rifle.
1'he raiders halted and opened a
heavy fire in reply that fairly riddled
the house which barred their prog
ress. But by this time reenforcements
had arrived to help the single person
who was fighting back so, and the raid
ers broke and ran.
The girl who saved the La Cananea
was Maria Proctor, the daughter Of
one of the contractors for the mine.
w. c. Greene, the man who was hold
ing La Cananea against almost over
whelming odds, was told of how one
girl had fought from a thin board

in love with her, and though she was
