vinced that he was almost In sight Of
the iron molder.
1t was now evident that Casper Flu
gel had been better equipped for his
task than his pursuer. He had been
told that no one could follow him
across the Staked plain. Thraile drank
the last drop of water from the rubber
bag and with indomitable will strug-
gled ON. A little later an object doomed
up In the trail before him. 1t was Cas-
per Flugel. seated on the body Of his
| dead horse.
| The sight of a human being In that
dreadful region caused the man hunter
1 to give a shout of Joy. He forgot his
object in following the iron molder.
Here was a human being In that God
| forsaken region, and he felt that II he
could grasp the mans hand In friend
ship 1t would be the happiest moment
| Of his life.
Casper Flugel heard the shout and,
dumb with amazement at the sound of
Q human voice, rose to his feet. Then
he gathered up some articles at the
horses head and hurried on as fast as
the soft sand would permit.
The man hunter ran after him,
shrieking words of good will and en-
treaty, but the iron molder gave no
heed and finally disappeared in the suf-
! locating heat waves. When the red lid
had traversed the sky and seemed sud
! denly to drop out of sight in the sand a
few yards ahead of him, the pursuer.
exhausted, fell to his hands and knees.
Instinct had taken the place 81 reason,
and he crawled ON.
Presently he found himself looking
over the edge of precipice. The twi-
light was clearer than the day, and be-
! fore him was long valley, in which
he could see several buffaloes grazing
near stream. The sight was so unex-
pected that he beat his forehead in the
belief that it was the vision Of disor-
dered mind.
His rifle was gone, but his two re-
volvers were yet in his belt. Still he
! looked and hesitated. Was it dream
| The reality became so clear that new
life rushed through his veins, and he
! crept like a snake down to the herd.
Crawling to a rock near which one was
feeding, he leveled both guns. At the
shot it fell, and his misery was at an
! end. In few minutes he had fire,
and over it bit of steak. Then he fell
asleep, but some time in the night he
was awakened by rife shots, mingled
with the bowls Of wolves. Revolver
shots followed in quick succession, and
the man hunter sprang to his feet.
Casper Flugel was fighting wolves!
Thraile had just decided to go to Flu
gels assistance when the firing ceased
and horrifying Shrek echoed down
the canyon. 1t was too late to help the
iron molder. Thraile ran back to the
bluff. He was none too soon. The pack
of wolves came bowling down the can
yon. They reached the carcass of the
| buffalo and fought over it so long that
the man hunter was enabled to reach
place of safety. Some of the bodest
tried to get at him. He emptied his re-
volvers at them and finally the bowling
| pack turned up the canyon. The next
morning he followed the stream to the
first ranch. and month later he
reached Topeka. where he reported to
United States Marshal Simpson the
| death of the iron molder

strike in the district took place this
morning and fully l, 800 men are out
The strike effects every mine in the

81. 80 a day An effort, it is also re-
ported, will be made to increase the
number of work hours from eight to
nine and from ten to twelve, the lat
ter to affect surface men and employees
not directly concerned in the actual
mining of ore and development work.
1t is safe to state that the mill own
ers, the smelter trust. and the mine
owners are unit today and that the
triumvirate has decided upon fighting
the Western Federation of Miners to
annihilation.
The immediate cause of tile calling
of the strike today WAS the refusal of
