earth falling on the box; and Neb, his
Aunt Cations house servant, black
imp of good humor, who begged so
hard to be taken back with him to the
war. Why, the boy had held his stir
rup the next morning when he rode
away. The sudden rush of recollec-
ton seemed to bridge the years, and
that black face became familiar, a
memory of home.
"Of course, remember, Neb," he
exclaimed, eagerly, "but that's all
years ago and I never expected to see
you again. What brought you West
and got you into this hole?"
The negro hitched up onto the
bench, the whites of his eyes conspic-
uous as he stared uneasily about-he
had a short, squatty figure, with ex-
cessively broad shoulders, and face
of intense good humor.

was to be saved from their clutches,
he must save himself; if his inno-
cence was ever established it would
be by his own exertions-and he could
accomplish this only out yonder. free

He lifted his head, every nerve tin
Cling with desperate determination.
The low growl of voices was audible
through the partition, but there was
no other sound. Carson City was still
resting, and there would be no crowd
nor excitement until much later. Not
until nightfall would any attack be at
tempted; he had six or eight hours yet
In which to perfect his plans. He
ran his eyes about the room searching
for some spot of weakness. 1t was
dark back of the bench, and he turned
in that direction. Leaning over, he
looked down on the figure of a man
curled up, sound asleep on the floor.

lowing desperate enough for any pur'


pose.
The longer Keith thought the less
he doubted the result. It was not then
problem of defence, but of escape,
for he believed now that NO oppor-
tunity to defend himself would ever
be allowed. The arrest was merely
part Of the plot intended to leave him
helpless in the hands of the mob. In
this Hicks was in no way blamable-
he had merely performed his sworn
duty, and would still die, If need be,
in defence of his prisoner. He was
no tool, but only an instrument they
had found means of using.
Keith was essentially a man of &C.
ton, fighter by instinct, and so long
accustomed to danger that the excite
ment Of it merely put new fire into his
veins. Now that he understood exact
ly what threatened, all nu1nbing feel
ing Of hesitancy and doubt vanished,
and he became instantly alive. He
would not lie there in that hole wait
ing for the formation of a mob; nor
would he trust in the ability Of the
marshal to defend him.
He had some friends without-not
many, for he was but an occasional
visitor at Carson-who would rally to
Hicks assistance, but there would not

CHAPTER V.
The One Way.

Keith said nothing for some mo-
ments, staring up at the light stealing
in through the window grating, his
mind once again active. The eyes Of
the black man had the patient look
of a dog as they watched; evidently
he had cast aside all responsibility,
now that this other had come. Final
ly Keith spoke slowly:
1--WE are in much the same position,
Neb, and the fate Of one is liable to
be the fate of both. This is my story"
and briefly as possible, he ran over
the circumstances which had brought
him there, putting the situation clear
enough for the negro's understand
ing, without wasting any time upon
detail. Neb followed his recital with
bullying eyes, and an occasional excla-
nation. At the end he burst forth:

men murdered-one an OIL man wild a

covery.

a risk" Keith insisted Didn't the!

Signor Pucinni, celebrated for his
operas, is still young man. On the
subject of his early success the 1tal-

Il remember one of my country
men, a centenarian, who, had he died
before 10 would never have seen any
of his operas produced. Luckily he
lived to so great an age that he re-
ceived for many years the admiration
he deserved. Naturally enough, though
this splendid artist regretted his
years of obscurity and neglect and he
frequently spoke bitterly of his bad
fortune.
