I~Uw was waSe0 mIgnly war with
pots" as great as 40 cents. Back
ward and forward went the money,
onists. Steadily, inexorably, the skill
OF MingO was draining the purse of
Captain Jim. At the end of an hour
80 cents were gone; the eyes of the
men were g!inting with excitement
and the bosoms of the squaws were
heaving. About this time came Wins
low across from his place, to see in
what manner his coin was being EN-
ployed.
On and on went the silent play.
Jim was dropping piece after piece,
as ii in the nav OF hungry machine.
At length his final dime was gone. He
searched his pockets for the where
withal to continue the play. Half a
dozen fish-hooks, a six-inch piece Of
gas-pipe and hunting-knife appeared.
The hooks and the pipe went speed
lily across the cloth to his foe. The
knife he yearned to keep. Looking
about, like tiger at bay, he espied
his wife,
I'll stake my squaw against dol
lar pour-bits," said the captain in
Washoe and English.
And Winslow fancied he saw a
CLEAN, half of appeal, half of reckless
bravado, in the glance the Indian
threw to the youthful squaw.
n fn0I iY,u ~ har
charms and noted the look of surprise
in her face.
''One dollar" said he.
And they played again.
The fate of the bronze- tinted daugh-
ter of the soil hung in the balance for
hah-an-hour. At the end Of that time
she joined the faithless dimes, hooks
and piece of pipe. The excitement
was now intense. Not few of the on
cookers, including Mrs. Captain Jim,
were smiling, just a little, for the
prowess Of Mingo had made him a
hero.
The bucks and squaws closed in,
and the day was growing old. Finally,
with an Indian cath, the captain
hurled his cards to the blanket, and
saw his last wee coin plump down by
his knife.
He was busted fat"
Looking about the circle, the loser
found pitiless array OF eyes upon
him. Oh! for just dollar-a dime
anything! He knew that his luck must
turn. and his silver and precious
things come back If only he could get
another chance. The passion was
burning out his very heart!
He snarled out fierce, defiant offer
of last desperate stake, which
raised murpur of appreciation and
-~snvment aA cansed the eager crowd

Captain Jim lost all the change he
had. AS the last Of his pieces Of sill
YER went he arose and looked about.
Not banker, pot even a hacker did
he see in the assemblaga He prasent-
ly noted that WinslOw was out in his
garden, at the rear Of his house. and
wandered over with the easy indif-
ferent manner OF the most friendly
neighbor. Winslow's friend was sit
ting near as Jim approached.
"Hullo, Jim, how are your" said
the host, continuing to sprinkle with
the hose.
Heap SICK" replied the buck.
Then he shifted about, as no ono
manifested an interest in his beiee or
cpndttiona whistled under his breath,

'True for you. You're all right"
said Winslow. Then to his friend:

endeavosing to intimate that further
remuneration for services rendered
would not be refused with scorn and
Indignation"
"Yash-heap fine day." answered
Jim. with perfect confidence in his
own interpretations.
A stasase followed, and the white
men were smiling.
Heap bring 'um glass, heap belt,

The Indian pondered, and not In

in his mind.
MY wife-she's heap wants a dol
lar SAID he with the utmost gravity.
The two men burst out in uncontrol-
liable laughter.
Your wife-the devil she does-by
lingo! that's worth a .dollar!" and
Winslow pitched the cash to the bsck
and stood there red with mirth as the
fellow solemnly walked to the gay
'rosetts" OF gamblers over the way.
At the coming of Jim place was
made in the circle, he was given dimes
for his dollar, and the play was re-
sumed. The two common players soon
lost their coins to Jim, who then
possessed an additional 60 cents. He

without success. At the end of that
time, behold appear Mr.. Grunthard In
jun, the fellow yonder-whose other
name Is Jim, to which the title cap
tain is often superadded by himself.
He was leading the nag, and was
grinning with dissatisfaction that
was truly edifying. The saddle was
there, but scratched, bruised, torn and
worthless. In the bags was tangled
mass of stuff, mostly tackle, which
Grunthard exhibited in glee to assure
me of his honesty. The lenses of the
glass were ruined, but everything, ex-
cepr the knife and shoe, was there.

Winslow's friend seemed to think
the same.

of gambling. One by one newcomers

Wanted, good Indian. Only those
who are long defunct need apply"
This, after much mental lucubra-
ton and the coming of long-famous
statement, occurred to the mind OF
Winslow, as he gazed from his win
dow across the street at pair OF
warning squaws. They were taking
each others scalp-locks out by the
doubtle fistful, using pulling force
that IN field of stumps had been we'll
nigh invaluable
Winslow, watching the battling
squaws, presently noted the approach
of warrior armed with bottle. With
this he thumped light tattoo on the
knuckles and hands of the combatants.
Thereupon one female departed in
haste, whilst the other, who was wife
to the doughty chief with the bottle,
remained to contemplate the possibili-
ty Of extracting her husbands eyes
with her claws.
Just about as the misunderstanding
concluded, man came around from
the rear of Winslow's house and &C.
costed him
You're back in time to miss a
scrap" said the latter.
Sorry"
so am I. Do you see that buck
with the bother"
Winslow pointed across the street.
YES"
We'll, he's the fellow who found
my horse"
What horse?"
why, didn't tell you the story?"
Winslow's voice expressed surprise.
Never that now recall"
That's funny. You know I was out
in the mountains, camping. I had a
horse-a good-for-nothing old scoun-
drel-and of course saddle, with bags
for few necessities, etc., etc. One
evening rode him up the rayine that
leads to Three-lake creek, and left
him moment, tied to brush. When
came back he was gone. I had fish
ing-tackle, a pair of shoes, cartridge
belt, hunting-knife, thin vest, and
a pair OF field-glasses in the bags, or l
shouldn't have cared.
81 searched high and low, chased
hither and yon, but had to 60 back To
