tive: with a knife she had severed the
thongs that bound her limbs, and bade
her stand up. This done. raising her
hand warningly, she stepped to the door
and looked a moment at the warriors
before it. Satisfied, evidently. with the
result of her examination, she returned
and took Fanny Harrod by the hand
and led her from the lodge.
The parties stood in the open air, ano
beneath the light of an unclouded moon.
The face of Miss Harrod was deadly
pale; her limbs trembled with agitation,
and her heart beat fast with expectation
and fear. She turned her marble vlsage
toward Starlight, or threw wild and
wondering glances at Rosalthe.
The Cherokee girl paused but a mo-
ment. and then moved away from the
SPOT, supporting the trembling form OF
Fanny Harrod. They had proceeded per-
haps a dozen yards, when majestic
figure darkened their path, and the race
of Otter-Lifter was looking calmly upon
them. Miss Harrod uttered faint cry,
and fell fainting into the arms OF Star
Light.

this gold was one nugget as large as an
ordinary sized marble. A friend of
mine bought this gold for $500 and a
day or two later sold it for $565.
1T Is no uncommon thing to find the
buscones of that part of the country
with gold for sale. This nugget here
he exhibited a piece of smoothly worn
wash gold Of irregular shape and about
half an inch long by little over
quarter of an inch wide, with piece
Of quartz running crOsswise through 1t
II bought from buscon some three
years ago in Tepisco. He had several
other pieces Of fine gold ore, but as l
was not interested In mines l bought
this simply for the purpose Of making
pin out of it.
about eight months ago a buscon
brought Into TepiscO a mule load of
silver ore, which he sold for $500 to
one Of the local ore buyers. All efforts
to induce him to reveal the place where
he obtained the ore proved of no avail
When he found he was watched by
work upon little corn ranch that he
had in the nefghborhood, and there he
stayed until those watching him got
tired. About two months ago he sud-
denly disappeared and had not again
been seen there at the time Of my de-
parture, two weeks ago. 1t is my opin-
ion that he is again on the hunt for
the mine from which he got the ore.
Oh, if he knows where it is, he Is tax
ing ore out of it on the quiet; for he
sold out all his corn and realized on
his other crops at q sacrifice before
he left.
1t may be that he Is taking out de-
nouncement papers. But this 1 doubt,
as an Indian in that country rarely
does that, for it means the payment of
taxes and incidentally the revealing Of
the place where the mine is situated.
The Indian about there has been SO
badly treated and cheated that he Is
afraid of every one and suspicious Of
even the mining authorities.
The silver ore which this Indian
brought into the town was an oxide
almost jet black, running like seam
through wide vein of hard lime
formation. One Of the pieces Of ore
brought in by the Indian assayed
$500 to the ton In silver and $1,000
to the ton in gold. Very little of it
ran much less The man who made the
assay has tried every means in his
power to induce the Indian to tell him
where the hidden mine is. But the best
he could get out of him was that it Is
In the north, at a considerable distance
from Tepisco, and that the whole re-
gion. which is on the borders Of the
hot lands, is scanned with veins of sill
yer ore
Many buscones have been seen on
the hunt for this hidden mine ever
since the Indian brought in the famous
ore some months ago. Mexican Her
