whitewashed, was the station. On the corner
of an old bench sat a large, handsome man
who was eagerly watching the wagons as they
went by. Nestled against his shoulder was a
beautiful child, fair as lily, with large, blue
eyes, and long, yellow curls clustering about
the small pale face.
Papa isn't it timer" asked the little girl.
The low rumble of another wagon, the quick
sound of horses feet the glad, loud shout
from Uncle Ernest as he jumped off the, front
seat before the wagon had fairly stopped, and
the sweet face Of Chryssy Warburton found
a warm place on Uncle Ernest's loving breast.
When did they leave home? How did she
enjoy the journey in the luxurious palace car
for five days and nights?
These and hundred more questions Doctor
Warburton answered for his tired little dangh-
ter, as she lay on the piled-up pillow, with
her arms around the neck of Uncle Ernest,
after the first greetings were over and old
Peter was driving them towards camp
Life, in New Mexico to Chryssy proved
everything that was health-giving. At first
she lay on a little cot outside her tent with
the pine-tree branches overhead for shade,
and then, as her strength came back, she took
short horseback rides with Uncle Ernest or
her father, sitting in front of them, enclasped
IN their strong arms; and at last there came
day when she could mount her own sad
die on the beautiful pony Blue Bell, which
Uncle Ernest gave her.
In the cool, crisp air of the morning and in
the golden sunsets Chryssy rode through the
Valleys ana over Cne plains, gently at hrSt
and then, as she gained strength and conf
dence, she clattered over the hills like native
born; and, as she rode, she sang in a clear,
sweet voice, so wondrousiy pure and high that
it sounded almost unearthly in that wild re
gion.
The people about the camp were never
tired Of trying to entertain little Chryssy, and
Uncle Ernest and Sam by turns told her the
legends of the famous Organ Mountains that
doomed up 80 close at hand.
For hundreds of years the Mexicans and
Indians had believed that the Great Spirit
ruled over them. through the wild music of
the winds and storms as they swept through
the Organ Mountains.
When the sun like golden flame shone on
the high peaks and the air was soft and still,
the Great Spirit was pleased, and the natives
found shelter in the canyons and valleys,
dwelling in safety and peace: but when the
fierce winds roafed and trembled, shivering
and signing through the pipes, the Great Spirit
was angry or grieved, and then the Indians
and Mexicans fed from the dread presence,
moaning for their sins.
To the imaginative Chryssy these legends
were charming and wonderful. Over and
over, as she sat on her camp-stool by the door
of the tent, with her little hands folded in
her hap, she would coax Sam or Uncle Ernest
to tell her the story; and on her long rides to
the small Indian towns in the valley, the old
men and women would relate the marvellous
legends in their broken English.

the road winding about the hills, white as sill
yer, in the moonlight.
The scene was strangely wild and beau
tiful, and Chryssy's young eyes opened wide
in delighted wonder. There was a long pause
and then she exclaimed, with eager gladness:
Papa and the boys are coming! See! away
off-no Oh, look Peter Don't you see
those men.sue I5 number of them-and how
Peter dropped down on the rocks in sudden
alarm.
Glide, Miss Chryssy, hide" he said in a
shaking voice. 1T is the outlaw, Don Garcia,
and his band! Get down here by me. If they
see us we are LOST"
mo, shall stand right here" she replied,
bravely. 81 am not afraid; but if you are,
Peter, you may hide anywhere you like,
Nearer and nearer the horsemen came.
Down the dusty road they galloped at break
neck speed, Don Garcia riding ahead, follow
ed closely by dozen of his reckless COM
rades.
They dashed up to the tents, knowing them
to be empty, for they had heard of the alarm
at Antonita, and only passed through the little
village, leaving the poor natives in panic OF
fright and terror. They wheeled about toward
the corral.
of pickets. Blue Bell whinnied in sudden
fright and Chryssy heard her. How could she
save the pretty animal she loved SO much?
The. girls sensitive face grew anxlousiy
"My own Blue Bell" she said, under her
breath. Glow can l save your?
They led the best of the horses outside the
corral, Don Garcia himself appropriating Blue
Bell, and was leading her away, when sud
denly sweet, clear voice rose high above the
sound of the wind, and swept over the camp
like an angel call from the skies.
Don Garcia muttered a low imprecatlon,
dropped the bride rein, turned in his saddle
and, pointing toward the mountains, said, in
Spanish:
"Ah! Los Organos!"
The pipes were like FURNISHED silver, over
which leaned young, fair face, framed in
waves of golden hair, her arms resting on the
great rock, which, in the wan moonlight, look
ed like monster organ fashioned by the
hand of nature on the mountain SIDE
"Home, Sweet Home" Chryssy sang with
all her heart and soul. Clear, pure and high
the girlish voice foated over the organ pipes,
minghng and chording with their weird accom-
paniment.
Don Garcia's face grew pale. He dropped
his uplifted hand and sat motionless a mo-
ment, gazing at the startling vision. Then,
utterly unnerved, he bowed his head, mo-
toned the men to follow him, and the clatter
of their horses feet sounded further and fur
ther away while "Home, Sweet Home" grew
fainter and more faint.
As the bandits disappeared in the distance,

Chryssy's father shook his head graveiy and
replied:
Gust like her! She was always an odd
chick in the family, you know. tell you,
Ernest, we must watch carefully, that no harm
comes to her"
Chryssy found camp life rather uneventful
if it was health-giving. She was kept from
everything that might distress or startle her,
his band of outlaws had been raiding the
railroad towns and large ranches on the Dor
ders of New Mexico and Texas, followed ~
sheriffs and detectives, who failed to find
them.
Thus far the camp had been free from at
tack, and little thought was given to Don
Garcia, who was last heard from hundred
miles south.
One day there came messenger from An
tonita, village only a few miles distant,
''There is great trouble; come and help US"
take all the men. will stay with Chryssy"
mo, no, papa" objected Chryssy; you
must go too. You, are big and strong. and
they may need you"
After much protest, old Peter and Chryssy
were left alone. The corral was in plain sight
from the tents, and Blue Bell was tied to one
of the picket posts that formed the brown,
rough bark Enclosure.
"Peter, the stars look as if they touched
the organ tonight" said Chryssy, "and see
the clouds rush across the pipes. Oh, they
will play tonight"
Peter, in obedience to Ernest's orders, sat
demurely by the door of the tent, waiting till
she should fall asleep, before going to the
corral for the last look at the stock, previous
to going to his own tent for the night. But
Chryssy did not think of retiring She APP
peared at his side, in her cloak and hood and,
with toss of her head, said persuasively:
Come, Peter, you must go to the organ with
me and hear the music by moonlight l am
sure papa will not care. Hurry, Peter! Hear
the wind blow!"
A slight breeze had Just shaken the pine
trees at dark, but now the wind came off the
in sharp and fitful gusts, quite
chilling old Peters courage as well as his
aged limbs.
"Miss Chryssy, do not CO." he implored.
But the girl did not heed him.
Higher and higher she climbed, old Peter
stumbling after her nimble feet. At last she
stood ON a high rock, overlooking the white
tents and brown corral, the wide valley. and

IneSe Two 1rlenQS, Ernest war
burton, of Washington, and Sam
Owens. of New York, together with the rest
of the boys belonging to the Geological Survey,
had made camp near Las Cruces, New Mexico,
Just at the foot of picturesque group of
mountains called clos Organos"-the Spanish
for "the organs'-which ran from north to
south eighteen miles; not single ridge, but
broken up by east and west canyons and val
leys. The central peaks were inaccessible and
seemed to reach into the clouds, and their
shape was the exact slope and general appear
ance of a monster organ.
The air of February day had grown chill
and the sky overcast, and the cracking fire
of the sweet-s1nelling pinon trees was bright
and cheerful Just outside the little row of
white TENTS
Il say, Ernest, cheer up. We can't stand
such sigh as that last one. What is the
matter?" asked Sam.
"Why the truth is. Sam, don't think I'll
stay here much longer. I've had sad news
You've heard me speak of my brother Nathan
Doctor Warburton, of Washington. He has
been father, mother and all the world to me,
for our mother died when L was five years
old. Nathans wife died year ago of con-
sumption, and now he writes that Chryssy'-
and Ernest's voice faltered again" Chryssy
has gone into decline and is going the same
way"
Ernest put on another pine log and gave
the glowing Goals poke with his boot.
Eyes C6ryssy, our one little girl. She's
just fourteen and looks about ten, and when
l said good-by, six months ago., she was rosy
aud merry, clinging to my neck and saying,
Now uncle dear, keep away from bears and
Indians, and come home safe to your own
Chryssy."
Sam moved close to his friend. and said,
simply;
Lets send for her."
The two men looked into each others faces;
a fash of gladness swept over both.
Before sunrise the next morning Ernest was
galloping over the dry, sandy road to Las
Cruces, and tired and dusty he rode to the
postoffice, with an amazing letter to Doctor
Nathan Warburton.
Another month had gone by. The yellow
wagon was piled with pillows and blankets,
for a, telegram had startled the surveyors
camp late at night:
ERNEST Warburton-All safe. Meet us at
Las Cruces"
The stout mules never trotted off so fast
before Ernest and Sam, with old Peter as
driver, vanished from the little row of white
tents long before the red sun had looked over
the mountains.
