see them and wanted to open fire upon
them, but were restrained by Young. who
having nothing to fear from the law. did
not wish to kill anyone unnecessarily.
Mercy Costs Life.
His mercy cost him his life some days
later. After the danger of the lynching
had passed Young visited Healey, the post
office OF that vicinity, and in CONVERSE
ton with a storekeeper there told him of
the affair, saying that he had identified
the members of the posse. Young In
formed the storekeeper that his CYoung's)
life was in danger and that his intention
was to gather up his horses and leave the
country. He stated he would start the
work OF rounding up his horses in a few
days.
The following day Young commenced this
work and was seen by one or two people
who knew him while he was thus engaged.
From that time until his skeleton was
found half buried in the soil at the foot
of felled pine tree in a lonely place near
Grand river not the slightest trace OF him
could be found. His stock disappeared
from the range and not a hair or hide NJ
the horses have since been seen.
The crime would never have been re-
vealed had not coyotes been drawn to the
spot. These scourges of the plains had
partially uncovered the skeleton. thus as
sisting justice in the effort to avenge what
was one of the most cold-blooded murders
in the history OF South Dakota.

hundred ponies will sometimes be gathered They
are of all ages from the old ponies that have been
the heroes of many pennings, to the little new colts
trotting scared and wild, beside their mothers If
there are any colts than year old that do
not bear any brand, they become the property of
whoever can catch and brand them; but the young
colts belong to the of their mothers, and
usually branded at the spring penning.
1t takes strong, quick man to catch and subdue
a full grown Banker pony. The wild, unbroken
plunges and lashes out with its sharp hoofs
and bites at its wouldbe captor SO vigorously as
to make the work both exciting and dangerous The
man knows that it is safest to be close to the pony
so close that it cannot kick him strike him. so he
sticks at the side of his intended captive, and,
after many attempts, generally succeeds in getting
a rope slipped tight about its neck. Once battered,
is usually long before the little horse is thrown
and secured and WEAKNESS finally subdues it.
1t is not difficult to train the Banker ponies to
saddle and harness. They are particularly good
saddle horses easy in their gaits, with splendid
speed and endurance. The ponies are used to
hardship, scanty fare and no shelter; ~ but they
improve constantly under good care. They grow
handsomer and spirited, and if they find that
they love and trust their young owners they are
the happiest, most delightful pets boys and girls
can have.

THERE is probably. only one place in this

This place is long narrow island, known as the
Core Banks, which lies off the coast of North
Carolina, between Core Sound and the sea- Here the
Banker ponies that make such good little steeds

wild until they captured and brought to market
1t is over three hundred years since the ancestors
of the Banker ponies were left on the Core Banks

The horses had to shift for themselves. They
had only the marsh grass to eat, and they had no
shelter at all; so, gradually they became smaller
under these bad conditions They grew long, shaggy
coats of hair to protect them from the cold and rain
and their hoofs became larger than is usual with
horses, because of their wading through the sand
and marshy places All the surface water on the
island is salt brackish but the horses have learned
to paw down below the surface of the sand until
they reach the fresh water below. They literally
dig little wells, from which to drink and while they
have lost size, they have become strong and hardy

squirting his cow-pony toward the Lud-
lows Half a mile ahead he could see
where the trail forked. The north trail
led to Jamie Webb's shack, to active
service, to excitement, to the great
North, to freedom. The south led back
over fifty miles of hot foot-hill country
to White Clay Butte, to the loneliness
of the desert, to long days in the sad
die, to the companionship of dull, lnin-
teresting comrades. There crouched
Jamie's shanty; he could see it plainly
now glinting in the morning sunshine.
Jamie would be waiting, he reflected.
He himself had waited for the little
yellow note, for the tardy summons to
enter. He thought of the Gutfy City
stage-coach. The passengers would
have gold, gold in abundance = and
then away to the battle with the North.

For en hour Crumpton and the girl
sat on the veranda of the Ludlows,
talking. 1t was the first time i'll ten
years that the cowboy had talked to
a girl. He marveled at the ease with
which he talked. She chatted about
books-she had read many of the tales
of the West-and the questions she
asked were many.
Crumpton rose to go. You're not
so far from Queens fifty miles,
said the girl You'll come and see US
sometirnes-Suey and me? We're not
going home until October" She locked
up into his eyes frankly, unafraid.
Crumpton stood looking at her, silent
for second-two. He thought of Jamie
Webb waiting for him, of the summons,
of the real world. AS he stood ponder
ing, the brown eyes never left his.
