Each fair maid was giving the lions

winning her. There is no love SO be-
sotted as that of maturity: and the pos
sibiity of her refusing him never sug-
gester itself. But of this, as of other
things, he was presently to learn more.
1t was after he had given up all hope
of making literary copy" out of her
that the incident occurred upon which
the story of his earlier fancy would have
been wrecked beyond all salvage. The
incident turned upon curious happen
ing in Lame Horse canyon. AS it CHANGED,
the SHOWS in the higher gulcheS melted
late that year; and one afternoon, when
Vandenberg reached the ranch at the por
tai gorge, the bed of the canyon torrent
was as dry as an arroyo.
Madse met him at the corral bars, as
had come to be her custom. and after the
greetings pointed to the dry stream bed.
IF YOU want drink today you'll have
to climb for it, she said: and then she
explained that the melting SHOWS had
brought down landslide in the canyon,
forming a natural dam and cutting off
the ranch water supply.
Here was an opportunity for a stroll
with an object, and Vandenberg seized it
promptly.
Lets go and have look at. it." he
said, turning his horse into the corral;
and so they trampled off up the canyon,
walking, for the novelty of it, in the dry
bed OF the torrent

'Why?"
'Tain't nothin' but mud and little
rocks. I reckon hit'll bust out mighty
easy when the water gets backed up
high enough. I'm going down to tell the
old man." And he went his way.
Shall we go back?" said Vandenbers.
The gray eyes flashed up at him. "Of
course-if you are afraid" she said; and
at that they went on.
Petes two sights and half of an
other proved to be short measure; this
because Lame Horse canyon is like a
rams horn for crookedness. They found
the slide at the foot Of a steep slope of
clay. After they had climbed to the top
of the dixie and had watched the water
slowly creeping up to form a miniature
lake behind 1t. they went below again
to sit in the shadow of great rock on
the edge of the dry channel.
Now ordinarily there was never any
dearth of things to talk about, but on
this day Vandenberg was curiously

Towboats on Western Rivers.

From the Chicago Tribune.
Some of the inland towboats reach huge
proportions. The largest ever built to ply
the western rivers tows coal on the Ohio
and Mississippi rivers. 1t is made almost
exclusively of steel and is twice as pow
erful as the next largest boat. The coal
towing capacity of this peculiarly con-
structed steamer when in barges holding
1900 bushels each would cover an area
equal to a city block.
The fact that the river boats are still
built on the same lines as those of fifty
years ago is not due to lack of invention
on the part of the builders, but they are
retained on account of the peculiaritics
of the streams on which they are used.
Exhaustive tests have proved that the
old original type of construction with the
stern wheel is far better than any of the
other types.

at him, but, as before. the guileless eyes
disarmed suspicion.

her frankness: "it doesn't fit you. 1 shall

"Because"-she was poised on the foot

cause it's on the other side Of the creek,
and you can't cross alone"
She was gone at the word, across and
a-horse and away; and Vandenberg had
only tho memory of mocking laugh for
her leave-taking.
He figured it all out to his own satisfac-
ton that evening, sitting out the sunset
hour on the porch Of the hotel and smok-
ing his after-dinner cigar in reflective de-
liberation.
AS to the better acquaintance, that was
mere matter of detail; and he went
about the preliminaries the next morning,
making guarded inquiries of the hotel
clerk There were several ranches near

herder whose name would be Pete"

berg felt his way cautiously into the par
ticulars. The ranch in question was the
''X-bar-X," and it's menage consisted of
old Eliphaet Winters, its owner; his wife,
and small family of cowpunchers.
Vandenberg marveled that there was no
mention of the young woman. but was
much too wary to betray the source OF
his own curiosity. Could the inn stables

He looked up to make sure that she was
not laughing at him again, and the pit of
foolishness gaped for him and he fell in.
For notwithstanding the simple gown and
the cowboy hat, she was fair and sweet
and good to look upon; not in any of his
years had he seen her like, in

he Vas AucH FEARED BY ALL THE INDIANS
Said to Have Killed Cheyenne Brave
Many Years Ago-Known as
Evil Spirit.

Henry Lee of Pierre has mounted
and placed in the historical society
rooms at Pierre a specimen of the
Golden American eagle secured in the
Black Hills. The bird is above aver
age size and Is said to be over 100
years old, having died natural death,
and with known history dating some
thirty years. The bird was known
and feared by the Indians for many
years prior to the appearance of the
white man in the chase for gold in
the Hills.
Mr.. Lee is taxidermist and natur-
alist of considerable renown, and hav-
ing heard marvellous stories Of the
eagle came here in search of him with
intention of taking him dead or alive.
The bird has for years made his home
on shelf of rocks near the mountain
ranch of G. b. Marsh, about ten miles
northeast of this city. Arriving at
the ranch in company with E. N.
Norman, last May, Mr.. Lee was sur
prised to learn the bird had not been
seen for several days. A search was
made near the nest and the body of
the bird found at the bottom of the
cliff, apparently having died of natural
causes due to old age.
The bird has been known SO long it
has been dubbed "Old Lonesome
and by that name will be RENE mbered
by the old settlers especially. AS the
story goes, the Indians univ ersally
feared to penetrate far into the Hills
as evil spirits are supposed by the
race to dwell there on account of the
frequency of thunder and storms. On
this account they affirm the southern
Hills were inhabited by fierce ami,
mails which preyed upon the red man
and killed him by beating his head
with great wings and digging his eyes
out with claws. In fact any old Sioux
Indian will point to the Hills, shake
his head and grunt obviously in af-
firmation of the story, all of which is
apparently closely connected with the
life history Of the bird now mounted
by Mr.. Lee.
The legend is that great many
years ago the daughter of Sioux
chief became enamoured of Chey-
enne brave. The old chief would not
consent to their union, so the young
people eloped and were closely pur-
sued by the chief and his warriors.
They sought refuge among the caves
and canyons of the Hills. One night
they camped at the base of preci
pice and while the brave was Skin.

WAS ONLY TAKING A BATE
o. lngeI Goes to Sioux City to Buy
New Suit of Clothes and
Learns Something.

Sioux City Tribune: Amassing
quite sum of money in the harvest
fields of Pennington county, South
Dakota, d. Ingel rode into Sioux City
with a crowd of ''hoboes" on a freight
train yesterday and later in the after
noon was arrested while taking bath
in the Missouri at the foot of Doug
lass street.
After reaching Sioux City Ingel
parted company with the tramps and
purchased him new outfit to take
the place of the we'll used overalls and
jumper he was wearing, at the same
time partaking rather freely of strong
drink.
Before donning the new clothing,
however, Ingel thought he should
.lAl e u bath, so he went to the Mis-
souri,, stripped off and jumped in.
Persons in the vicinity who saw him
leap into the river surmised that he
was attempting self destruction and
Patrolman Colvin answered the hurry
call sent to police headquarters.
Ingel was about five feet out in the
stream and refused to come to shore
when ordered to do SO by the patrol
man.
''I'm in here to get some of that
South Dakota dirt out of my skin and
I'll come out when I'm through TAX
ing this BATH" said Ingel as he lib
orally applied soap to his body.
For twenty minutes Colvin stood
guard on the bank of the river until
Ingel came out. Then the officer hus-
tied him into the dog pound, where
he donned his new clothing and, all
dressed up, was taken to police head
quarters, where charge of intoxica-
tion was placed against him.
Merely taking bath your honor,
and that was all" said Ingel when
arraigned before Acting Police Judge
Ole T. Nelson this morning. He was
fined SIS, money in the hands Of the
court being applied to satisfy the fine.
