lively q season in realty as the present.
I'm my business" said he, '1 become
ccgnizant Of transactions of all kinds.
AS q. rule we fight shy of the smaller
deals, but, of course. we have to ac-
conamodate our customers and friends
and I have rarely seen so lively de-
mand fer loans to be used in payment
for small properties. One of the rea-
sons why deals are so readily put
through in this city is the great ease
with which money can be procured upon
good security Thus both for the pur-
poses of speculative transactions and
those that involve merely the purchase
of modest homes, ample capital is
available, and the real estate record, as
also the bank ledgers show, that people
are not slow in having recourse to it. :"

oIans Of men IN his ears. He disap'
peared as II the earth had swallowed
him up, and he was not found Ior .
month. Then one day man peneuat
ed a wild, dark gorge leading INTO une
mountain, and when he had followed
II for a quarter OF a mile IL debouched
into a cove ten acres In extent. Water
and grass were plentiful, and the black
horse had lived In safety. On the grass
law the decaying bodies of four timber
wolves that had met deatif'while trying
TO pull him down. He had courage as
we'll as beauty.
The presence OF the man drove the
horse out into the valley, and then the
chase was taken up. II began one
morning at daylight. -,
The chase was cruel and later on led
TO auarrels wherein men lost their
lives. For FIVE miles each hunter pur-
sued the black horse at top speed and
then he rested. Confident OF his speed
and strength, the lone horse moved on
with a defiant air. There was not a
moments rest for him all day long.
Three or four times be buried his
muzzle In the Ice cold waters OF the
creeks as he came to them. The com
ing OF night gave him no relief II
was moonlight and the chase still CON
tlnued.
For seventy miles the black horse
held his course up the valley. Then
be turned and retraced his steps. Again
he went up the valley, but when he
had covered fifty miles be stopped and
stood at bay. He had done all that a
horse could do, and more. He had
covered 100 miles Of distance almost
without breaking his gait When he
stopped. signals were given for the
men above and below to close In, and
By and by there were a dozen In
a circle around him. Lassos were
made ready, but the men Quarreled
among themselves as to who had the
best right. While the war Of words
was going on the black horse could
have wheeled and broken through, but
he realized that his race was run. II
was bright moonlight, and he stood
blowing the steam from bis nostrils,
and his head was never held higher
His limbs trembled, but with weak
ness instead Of fright. His eyes had
lost their ere, but the race he had run
was to be talked about for twenty
years to come.
Suddenly three or four men began
to whlrl their lassos and others pre-
pared to shoot, and II was then that
the black horse uttered a sobblng
neigh, tossed his proud head high and
sank down with a sigh and was dead
ere any man had laid hand on his fore
lock. Captivity was not for him.
