ed. It was Cissy Trixit. There was no
mistaking that charming sensitive
lace, glowing with health and excite
ment, albeit showing here and there the
mark of the pigment with which it had

A little bit of it had run into the cor
ners of her eyelids and enhanced the
Erilliancy of her eyes.
He found his tongue with an effort.
What are you doing here?" he said

He groaned slightly, but more from
shame than pain. The young girl took
up glass of whisky ready on the table
and brought it to him. s.Take that, It

hurriedly, recalling his mission.
Not now. He's gone to the station

little laugh.
ITO the station? repeated Master
ton, bewildered.
Yes" she replied, ''to the station.
OF course you don't know the news"
she added, with an air Of girlish i'm
portance. They've stopped all pro-
ceedings against him, and he's as free
as you are"
Masterton tried to rise, but another
groan escaped him. He was really in
pain. Cissy's bright eyes softened.
She knelt beside him. her soft breath
tanning his hair, and lifted him gently
to a sitting position.
"Oh, I've done it beforev' she laughed
as she read his wonder, with his graft

him out of this horrible trance-and he
called to her across the pew and heard
her sweet voice again in answer. And
then a wave of Inconsistencies once
more submerged him.
He came back to life with a sharp
tingling of his whole frame as if pierre
ed with thousand needles. He knew
he was being rubbed, and in his at
tempts to throw his torturers aside he
saw family by the light Of Pickering
fire that they were Cinnamon, and he
was lying on the floor Of rude hut.
With his first movements they ceased
and, wrapping him like mummy in
warm blankets, dragged him out of the
heap Of loose snow with which they
had been rubbing him toward the fire
that glowed upon the large adobe
hearth. The stinging pain was sue
ceeded by a warm glow. A pleasant
languor, which made even thought a
burden, came over him: and yet his
perceptions were keenly alive to his
surroundings. He heard the Cinnamon
mutter something and then depart,
leaving him alone. But presently he
was aware of another figure that had
entered and was now sitting with it's
back to him at a rude table, roughly ex-
temporized from a packing box, appar-
emily engaged in writing. 1t was a
small Chinaman, evidently the one he
had chased. The events Of the past
few hours-his mission his intentions
and every incident Of the pursuit-fash-
ed back upon him. Where was he?
What was he doing here? Had Trixit
escaped him?
In his exhausted state he was unable
TO formulate question, which even
then he doubted if the Chinaman could
understand. So he simply watched him
lazily and with a certain kind Of fas-
cination until he should finish his writ
Ing and turn round. His long pigtail,
which seemed ridiculously dispropor-
Tomato to his size-the pigtail which
be remembered had streamed into the
air in his fight-had partly escaped
from the dish covered hat under which
It had been coiled. But, what was sim
gular, it was not the wiry, black pigtail
Of his Monaghan fellows, but soft and
silky, and as the freight played upon

b Of the vedette to warn the fugitive. His
own figure had evidently not yet been
detected. His heart beat high with
hope. He again dashed forward after
the flying messenger, who was un-
! doubtedly seeking the ruined pros
pector's hut and-Trixit.
But it was no easy matter. At this
elevation the snow had formed a crust,
over which the single Chinaman
1.-THE, young fgure-skimmed like a
skater, while MYSTERIOUS horse crash
ed through it into unexpected depths.
Again, the runner could deviate by a
shorter cut. while the horseman was
condemned to the one half obliterated
trail. The only thing in Masterton's
favor, however, was that he was stead
lily increasing his distance from the
group and the deputy sheriff and so
cutting OFF their connection with the
messenger. But the trail grew more
and more indistinct as it neared the
summit until at last it utterly vanished.
Still he kept up his speed toward the
active little figure which now seemed
to be that of a mere boy-skimming
over the frozen snow. Twice a STUN
bic and founder of the mustang
through a broken crust ought to have
warned him Of his recklessness, but
now a distant glimpse of low, black
ened shanty-the ruined prospector's
hut-toWard which the messenger was
making, made him forget all else. The
distance was lessening between them.
He could see the long pigtail of the fu-
gltive standing out from his bent head,
when suddenly his horse plunged for
ward and downward In an awful in
slant OF suspense and twilight, such as
he might have seen in a dream. be felt
himself pitched headlong into suffocat-
ing depths, followed by a shock, the
crushing weight and steaming flank of
his horse across his shoulder, utter
darkness and merciful unconscious
ness.
How long he lay there thus he never
knew. With his returning conscious
ness came this strange twilight again
the twilight of a dream. He was. sit
ting in the new church at Canada City
as he had sat the first Sunday of his ar
rival there, gazing at the pretty face of
Cissy Trixit in the pew opposite him
and wondering who she was. Again
he saw the startled, awakened light
that came into her adorable eyes, the
faint blush that suffused her cheek as
she met his inquiring gaze and the con-
scious, half conceited, half girlish toss
Of her little head as she turned her eyes
away, and then file Of brown China
men, muttering some harsh, uncouth
gibberish, interposed between them.
This was followed by what seemed to
be the crashing in of the church roof,
q sitting heat succeeded by a long,
deadly chill. But he knew that this
last was all dream, and he tried to
struggle to his feet to see Cissy's face
again-a reality that he felt would take

For some moments his ascent through
the wet snow was slow and difficult,
but as he advanced he felt a change Of
temperature corresponding to that he
had experienced that afternoon on the
wagon coming down. The air grew
keener, the snow drier and finer. He
kept a sharp lookout for the moving
figures and scanned the horizon for
some indication of the prospector's de-
serted hut. Suddenly the line of
figures he was watching seemed to be
broken and then gathered together as
IDENTIFY they had, for, as he expected,
one of them had been detached and
was now moving at right angles from
the party toward the right. With a
thrill of excitement he urged his horse
forward. The group was far to the
figure. But to his establishment, as he
approached the top Of the slope, he now
observed another figure as far to the
right Of the group as he was to the left,
and that figure he could see, even at
that distance, was not Chinaman.
He halted for better observation.
For an instant he thought it might be
the fugitive himself, but as quickly he
recognized It was another mantle
deputy. It was he whom the China
men had discovered; it was he who had

Never marry a woman richer than
