STRANGE DISAPPEARANCE
UT Hobbs halted his mad iii

linen, with mis- neart Ill his mouth, ne
slowly began to retrace his steps. walk
ing where he had galloped moment
before. A turn in the road caused him
to draw rein sharply. A hundred yards
ahead five or six men were struggling
with riderless bay horse.

his horse!"
AS he drew nearer 1t struck him
forcibly that the men were not what
he had thought them to be- They were
an evil looking lot. more like the strik-
ers he had seen in the town earlier In
the day. Even as he was turning the
new thought over in his mind one Of
them stepped out Of the little knot
and. without word Of warning, lifted
his arm and fired point blank at the
little Engishman. A pistol ball whizzed
close by his head. His horse leaped
to the side Of the read in terror, al
most unseatiEg him.
But Hobbs had fighting blood in his
veins. What is more to the point, he
had MauSer revolver in his pocket.
He jerked it out and. despite second
shot from the picket. prepared to ride
down uDon the party. An instant later
half dozen revolvers were blazing
away at him. Hobbs turned at once
and rode in the opposite direction,
whirling to fire twice at the unfriendly
group. Soon he was out Of range.
The only thing left for him to do was
to ride mt once to the city and give
the alarm.
Suddenly his horse swerved and
leaped furiously out Of stride, STUN
bling, but recovering himself almost in
simultaneously. In the same second he
heard the sharp crack Of firearm far
down the unbroken ravine to his left.
A second shot came. this time from the
right and close at hand. His horse was
staggering swaying; then down he
crashed, Hobbs swinging clear barely
in time to escape being pfnioned to the
ground. A stream Of blood was pour
ing from the side Of the poor beast.
Aghast at this unheard of wantonness,
the little interpreter knew not which
way to turn, but stood there dazed nm
til third shot brought him to his
senses. The bullet kicked up the dust
near his feet He scrambled for the
heavy underbrush at the roadside and
darted Oft into the roadside, his revolv-
err in his hand. his heart palpitating
like mad Time and again as he fed
through the dark thickets he heard the
hoarse shouts nf men in the distance.

fingers sank into his arm with the grip

ears!-a low. hooking laugh came from
her lips.
Down where the pebbly house yard
merged into the messy banks Mr..
Hobbs sat tight, still staring with
gloomy eyes at the dark little hut up
the glen. A quarter of an hour had
passed since King disappeared through
the doorway. Mr.. Hobbs was getting
nervous.
The shiftless, lanly goose herd came
forth in time and lazily drove his scat
tered flock off into the lower glen.
Presently Hobbs caught sight Of a
thin stream Of smoke. rather black
than blue arising from the little chin
new ut the rear Of the cabin His ewes
flew very wide open: his heart expert
enced sudden throbless moment: his
mind leaped backward to the unex-
planned smoke mystery Of the day be-

to cry out to his unseen patron, to urge
him to leave the witch to her deviltry
and come along home. when the old
woman herself appeared in the door

Her arm was raised. bony finger

He went off among the treetops. You

moment and then went on in most
ingratiatlng tones: Would you care to
come into my house? l can show you
the road he took. YOU
But Mr.. Hobbs, his hair on end, had
dropped the rein OF Kings horse and
was putting boot to his own beast,
whirling frantically into the path that
led away from the hated, damned spot.
Down the road he crashed, pursued by
witches whose persistence put to shame
the efforts of those famed ladies Of

have discovered that he was followed
