One OF the stores on Mr.. Smiths
visiting list was about six or eight
miles from the nearest railroad sta

make the remainder of the trip on
horseback. As he reached n bridge
which spanned little mountain stream
about a mile from his destination he
passed n solitary individual leaning
lisuessly against the rail OF the bridge.
Salutations were exchanged, and Mr..
Smith passed on, but he noticed that
the stranger. who was armed with a
rifle, eyed him rather curiously. He
had gone but short distance when n
shrill whistle rang out behind him,
which was almost Immediately an

where in front OF him.
The road curved az this point. and
when Mr.. Smith reached II he was ac.
c0sted by two men, also armed. who
ordered him 10 throw up his hands and
90 with them. Considerably surprised
and very much alarmed at the sudden
interruption. he permitted his horse TO
be turned off the road into n small
path, one OF the men leading the ami.
NAL while the other kept him covered
with his rife.
Mr.. Smith began 10 question his can.

Explanations and apologies were in

officers were in the neighborhood and
