The news was received in some
quarters of the city with great re-
joicing while in other sections of
the city the news cast a gloom over
entire families. 1t is realized in bus

sad ending for one who for years
headed one of the largest banking in

cred the marks of the passage as well as he
could, and finally crawled up on the bank him.
self, covering his own trail.
He found hiding place for the day in a
ravine about 800 yards from the bank of the
creek, and after feeding his horse, and eating
his own breakfast he put all thought of sleep
aside, and climbing to hilltop he watched the
vicinity of the creek.
Bell believed that the reds could not have
found his trail, If they had found it at all, un-
til near sunrise and he knew that If they fol.
lowed him it would take them the better part
of the day to reach his hiding place and that
by that time his horse would be fresh and
their horses jaded.
At three o'clock in the afternoon he saw
something that set his heart beating brave
man though he was. The war party was
breaking through the underbrush on the bank
of the creek and Bell knew that his trail had
been followed and that he had but a moments
time to save his life and his message
He ran down the slope, vaulted on to his
horse and shot out into the open around the
base of the hill
The reds chased the courier for five miles,
firing now and again, but he distanced them
and after two more nights of peril he gave
Terry's message into the hands of Crook
James Bell was given medal of honor,
and for five years he was messenger in the

building was the courier who had taken on
himself mission that tried plainsmen had
not dared to attempt to fulfill.

She settled back in the bishops
landau with a satisfied little smile,
and l leaned in and bent over her
hand.
AS they rolled away I turned to
meet Dan Hemingway. who had just
been shutting the carriage door on the
spinster Averills and their almost
despairing mamma.

explained; "we're using other peoples

"And mighty little comfort"
That's largely a question of up.
bringing" laughed.
"Or down-sitting," he grinned. Then
he sighed, deeply and miserably, and
tried to hide it in a series of coughs
that did not deceive me.
whats wrong?" l asked.
did you notice Ankony to-night?'
he inquired.
Eyes. The fellow is boor."
His attentions were rather de.

challenged Barbara to cut him. Did
you think so?"
mo. Why on earth should be have
that attitude toward her? You're in
his employ, but you are not bound to
him, nor under any obligation what
ever"
"No-no, that is
"See here" I broke in, rather i'm
patiently, there are plenty of con
Germs as big as his that would be
glad to give you good berth. Don't
let him press his obnoxious attentions
on your sister just because you hap
pen to be giving him excellent service
for his money.
Dan looked at me oddly. "You don't
understand, Tom,' he said.
1T seems to me I understand per
fectly, and I'd like to thrash him for
his impudence."
He laughed, but the troubled look
came back quickly to his usually sun
ny face.
Miss Winstanley says he proposed
to her tonight l said.
He looked positively CHASTITY at that
"Oh, good Lord" he cried, Il hoped
she could stave him off,"
"She didn't accept him."
"No, no-of course not. But
wish"
1T seems to me-" l cut in, that
you'd be glad to have it over. He
was bound to offer himself sooner 61
later, and now that he's done it and
she has refused him, you all under
stand each other, and he won't be for
ever underfoot, as he has been. Il
will be much less embarrassing al
round"
He shook his head and, lighting :
cigar, walked on moodily beside me.
"Ankony is the devil" he said nerv
ously. "You don't understand
Willmar tribune., 1909-09-15

~Ah," said I, now we understand
each other
He nodded.
II would hardly have expected this
of you, Ankony."
"You admit the theft, don't you?"
do you admit the motive that
prompts you in the prosecution?"
That's got nothing to do with It.
But naturally-Quite naturally, I'm
sure-it is to our interest to stop this
business and make an example of the
thief. We've stood it too long a..
ready. This is the fifth time this has
happened to the company in twice
that many years. I tell you it won't
do to let it 60 on"
looked at him and smiled. It may
not have been very pleasant smile;
certainly didn't intend it to be, and
he flushed beneath it.
What do you mean?' he clustered.
THAT what you are telling me is all
nonsense" retorted.
'Now that you've gone this far, per-
haps you will 60 little farther and
make yourself plain." he cried an
grily.
Certainly. You were refused last
night by Miss Hemingway"
"She told you that?"
If you knew her better you would
not ask such question. She told me
nothing. You made your proposal so
public that the refusal was bound to
be more or less 50, and you have your
self to thank for the fact that I, with
others, know of it. Now, to make her
suffer, you throw her brother into
prison."
He got up hotly and took step or
two toward me.
BE careful what you say. You
know better than that"
"Your habit has not been to run
down Offenders" I remarked.
We've had to let several of them
go because of their relation to men,
bers of the company. But there must
be a stop somewhere, and I am in
earnest when l say that it must be
here. I'm sorry for the boy and for

CHAPTER II.

The next day Ankony sent for me.
an. the legal adviser of the Central
Savings Company.
He was locking particularly belli-
cose. 1t was at once evident to me
that he had his foot on somebody's S
neck and meant to keep it there. l
thought of what Miss Winstanley had
said of self-made men in the first
generation. Surely, 1 told myself,
there were but few of them who were
not belligerent.
Here's pretty kettle of fish,"
Ankony declared.
l removed my gloves and found a
comfortable chair. I was in no haste,
as l am not greatly interested in the
kettles of the acting president of the
Central Savings Company, except as
am paid to become so, and Ankony' S
mood and the recollection Of his ag-
gressiveness the night before made
me a little more antagonistic, if pos
sible, than usual
It's the last thing in the world any,

happen he said. Upon my soul, l
don't see why it's so hard for a man
to keep himself square these days.
He has been going it bit strong, per-
haps, but I'm fond Of him, and I'm not
naturally suspicious, and the thought
that he might be tempted never oc.

Would you mind going at it other

"You know Jim Austin, too, don't
you?"

marked.
You don't? You won't?"
''No, of course I won't"

were told to make the best time possible with
out killing their horses. The men were on
their mettle. They made the distance, 14O miles
20 miles of the way being through loose sand'
in % hours, the actual marching time being 1S
hours and 30 minutes. At Fort Warner they
rested one day, and returned to Harney on the
same horses at the uniform rate of 60 miles a
day. Capt. Edward G. Fechet started at mid"
night for the relief of the Indian scouts who
had been sent out to arrest Sitting Bull, and,
who, after killing that chief, were beleaguered
in small hut by his followers. Fechet took
an ambulance wagon and Hotchkiss gun with
him. The gun carriage broke down and he
was compelled to fasten the trail of the piece
to the tailboard of the ambulance and thus
drag 1t along. Notwithstanding this handicap
he made the first As miles in less than seven
hours. He fought and drove off the young
Sioux bucks, then secuted the country for ten
miles, gave his troopers some breakfast and
returned to the fort. Fourteen hours were
consumed in covering 80 miles of ground.
The cavalry horses of the American army
have undergone these endurance and speed
tests carrying weights of more than 200 pounds
and without any training other than that re-
ceived In the ordinary course of frontier
scouting and daily drill evolutions. The great.
est military ride record, as it appears on pa.
per, is that of the Austrian Count Stahrenberg
who rode one horse $50 miles in Il hours
The animal, however, carried only the counts
weight. 12S pounds: it had been specially
trained for months to undergo the endurance
test, and during the whole time of the ride it
was kept up on stimulants. The horse died
within "a hours after the completion of it's
task. Col. Dodge, in his summary of remark
able rides, tells Of professional express rider,
whom he personally knew, who for many
months carried mail from Ell Paso to Chihau-
hau through hostile Apache country This
man on one horse, broncho, regularly made
300 miles in 60 hours, and then resting his
mount for four days, made the return trip. Az
