Fifteen minutes later Jack rose to his
feet. An idea had occurred to him. At
the distance of furlong there was a
rail fence. 1t occurred to him that one
of these rails would enable him to cross
the ditch and get at his victim. He was
not afraid Walter would escape, since he
could easily turn back and capture him
if he ventured across.
Walter did not understand his design
in leaving the ditch. Was it possible
that he meant to raise the siege? This
seemed hardly probable. He watched,
with some anxiety, the movements of his
foe, fearing some surprise.
When Jack reached the fence, and be-
gan to pull out one of the rails he I'M
derstood his object. His position was
evidently becoming more dangerous.
Jack came back with a triumphant
smile upon his face.
Now" he said, I've got you'll"
Walter watched him wariy, and low
cred the plank ready to convert it into
a bridge as soon as necessary. Jack put
down the rail. 1t was long enough to span
the ditch, but was rather narrow, 80 that
some caution was needful In crossing it.
Walter had moved several rods farther
up, and thrown the plank across. Though
his chances of escape from the peril that
menaced him seemed to have diminished
since his enemy was also provided with a
bridge, and 1t became now a question of
superior speed, Walter was not alarmed.
Indeed, his prospects of deliverance APP
pcared brighter than ever, for he caught
sight Of two men approaching across the
meadow, and he suspected that they were
sent by the boy whom he had hired. These
men had not yet attracted the attention
OF Jack, whose back was turned towards
them. He crossed the rail, and, at the
same time, Walter cross the plank. This
he drew across, and then, leaving 1t on the
bank, set out on a quick run.

If Andrew Jackson were alive and
could gaze upon the Creek Indians Of
to-day he would shake his head at the
decadence and retrogression of a dice
mighty tribe. The Greek is civilized,
at least outwardly, and an active men,
Der Of the body polite. but he com
pares most sadly with his forefathers
as racial type and as an individual
man.
The Creek, or Muskogee, inhabited
large sections Of Alabama at least 400
years ago, and gave the army of De
Soto vigorous fight while the great
Spaniard was leading the march to
the Mississippi They formed a strong
confederacy with several tribes on an
equal basis and others as subordinate
members, and took part in wars
against the whites and against other
Indian tribes, their military operations
extending from South Carolina to
Louisiana and from Tennessee to Flor
ia.
In 1918, charmed by the oratory and
fascinating address OF the great Te-
cumseh, they obeyed his request to join
In a general war against the white
man. Headed by Weatherford, half
breed chief of great valor and wis
dom, they massacred the garrison at
Fort Minis, and then found themselves
opposed to no less an adversary than
Andrew Jackson.
jackson defeated the Creeks in sew
eral fierce battles, and finally broke
their power at Horseshoe Bend. For
twenty years after this they kept quiet
and made no trouble, but an outbreak
during the time OF the Seminole war
forced their removal to Indian terri
tory.
Some 1900 OF the Greeks were tax
eli west, where they settled down quiet
ly and made good progress in civil
zation. Unlike the other civilized
tribes, however, the Greeks mixed and
intermarried with their negro slaves.
and the tribe is now almost as much
black as red. There are some 11.OOC
Creeks at present, fullblood and mix
ed. and about 5000 negro citizens Of
the nation.
Old tribal factions have been obliter-
ated by the abolition OF tribal govern
ment, and the Creeks are fast losing
all identity. Previous to the opening
Of the reservation the old tribes Of
400 years ago still maintained their
Individuality - Muskogi, Alabama.
Uchi, etc--one Of the most interesting
tribes being the Uchi, who dwelt apart
from the rest Of the Creeks and main
tained curious religious and national
customs.

what's the matterT asked one OF the
two men as Walter came up.
Il got lost In the woods, and passed

"You locked him in the closet?" repeat

Walter, "and l hope you'll let me pay

How long has this Jack Bfangum
lived about here?" asked Walter, after
accepting with thanks the offer Of a
break fast
About Ave years. He's been In the
county jail twice during that time, and
there's a warrant out for him now. He's
a confirmed thief. He'd rather steal any
time than earn an honest living"
While this conversation was going on,
they had been walking toward the farm
house In which Peter Holcomb lived II

an attic above. On one side of II were
broad fields, some under cultivation and
there was an appearance Of thrift and
comfort despite the smallness OF the

Does War Develop Nations?

From the horrors Of war have come
many benefits unexpected at the time.
China will yet come to bless the day
that she was beaten by Japan. The
blood and agony of the civil war made
America n nation. Italian unity had
It's foundation in the humiliation of No
vara. France made her way to her
rightful place among the nations from
the miseries of Sedan and the COM
mune. Wellington used to consider
that the greatness of modern British
arms owed it's birth to Charles l. and
the efficacy of naval administration to
James II. For good or i'll, it is from
the stricken fields of the Crimea that
Russias present greatness dates. She
stood alone against the world. Her
exchequer was empty, her paper mon
ey no longer accepted. The great en-
pire, built up by such labor and pain,
was within measurable distance of dis
solution Sevastopol fell. Finland and
Poland were on the verge of breaking
away. All looked at its blacklist. The
conditions imposed in the peace treaty
were humiliating in the extreme, but
one by one Russia slid out of them.
The tremendous development which
has taken place in Russia dates solely
from that dark hour when all seemed
so nearly lost. To say that right over
might has triumphed would be another
matter.-LOndon st. James Magazine.
