LITTLE TALK DID THE WORK
Pastor, Of Course, Had Only Coed Of
Congregation at Heart, but He
Got Monetary Results.

At the end of the first six months of
his pastorate, Rev. Amos Johnson had
learned the ways of his flock so thor
oughly that he knew exactly how to
deal with them. One Sunday the col
lection was deplorably slender. The
next week Mr.. Johnson made a short
and telling speech at the close of his
sermon.
II don't want any man to glib more
dan his share, bredren," he said gent
ly, bending toward the congregation.
"but we must all glib according as the
Lawd has blessed and favored US, and
according to what we rightly hab.
Il say rightly hab, bredren," he went
on, after short pause, because we
don't want any tainted money in de
box. Squire James told me dat he'd
missed some chickens dis week Now
if any oh my pore benighted bredren
has fallen by de way in connection wild

from de box when it comes to him.

at full gallop pursued by men on ponies.
When Keith reaches the wagon the raid

parted. He searches the victims finding
papers and a locket with a woman's por-

CHAPTER xlx.-(continued.)

The dead silence which ensued was
broken only by heavy breathing. Then
Scott swore, bringing his fist down
with a crash on the washstand.

Il don't see what you see to laugh
at. This Keith isn't an easy man to
play with, let me tell you. He may
have got on to our game"
"Oh, hell Bart, don't lose your
nerve. He can't do anything, because
we've got the under holt. He's a fugi-
tive; all we got to do is locate him,
an have him flung back inter jail

him"
Hawley seemed to be thinking
swiftly, while his companion took an
other drink

mo, that trick won't work, Scott.
We could do it easily enough If we
were down in Carson, where the boys
would help us out. The trouble up
here is that Wild Bill Hickock is
Marshal of Sheridan, and he and |
never did hitch. Besides, Keith was
one of his deputies down at Dodge two
years ago-you remember when Dutch
Charles place was cleaned out? Well,
Hickock and Keith did that job all
alone, and Wild Bill isn't going back
on that kind of pal, is he? l tell
you we've got to fight this affair
alone, and on the quiet. Maybe the
fellow don't know much yet, but he's
sure on the trail, or else he wouldn't
have been in here talking to Willough-
by. We've got to get him, Scott, some
how. Lord, man, there's clean mil
lion dollars waiting for us in this deal,
and I'm ready to fight for it. But I'm
damned sleepy, and I'm going to bed.
You locate Keith tomorrow, and then,
when you're sober, We'll figure out
how we can get to him best; I've got
to set Christie right. Goodnight,
Bill"
He went out into the hall and
down the creaking stairs, the man he
wanted so badly listening to his de-
scending footsteps, half tempted to
follow. Scott did not move, perhaps
had already fallen drunkenly asleep
on his chair, and finally Keith crossed
his own room and lay down. The din
outside continued undated, but the
mans intense WEAKNESS overcame 1t
all, and he fell asleep, his last con-
scious thought memory of Hope.

simply failed to mention what he re-
moved from the bodies, supposing this
would be of no special interest.
Mrs. Murphy, hoping thus to quiet
the apprehensions of her charge, set
herself diligently at work to discover
the facts. AS her house was filled
with transients. including occasional
visitors from Carson City, and was
also lounging headquarters for many
of the officers from the nearby fort,
she experienced no difficulty in pick
ing up all the floating rumors. Out OF
these, with Irish shreWdness, she soon
managed to patch together consist
