Rv l. K 0or1A

BELFlELD, June 22-The people
at Belf1eld are out in full force to
meet the Farmers Institute train.
The interest is undated. The lee
turers are very tired but holding up
we'll and the general health of the en-
tire party is good. Occasionally =
headache or some slight indisposi-
ton appears but it is only temporary.
The same conditions as to crops
hold good here as elsewhere.
There are many people here today
from long distances and neighboring
towns.
This country was settled first by
German-Russians and Scandinavians
as rule with large sprinkling Of
Americans. Recently there was a
large company formed in Holland to
work in America and large tract
Of land was bought near Belfield to-
gether with much of the banking and
other interests of the town.
This company in intending to farm
much of the land and also to get tho
profit from increase in value. So
far it has not been great financial
success but the company managers
are hopeful Of good returns later on.
This was at one time a part of the
great range country that made North
Dakota so famous in those golden
days. But the ranches have been
broken up and successful farming the
rule for the past few years. And the
people that 60 on the train show a
degree Of agricultural intelligence
that gives promise Of this country be-
ing valuable asset in North Dako-
ta's assets.
The previous Institutes held here
have always been we'll attended, and
there is evidence everywhere that this
work has not been in vain.

nodding and courtesying solemnly, then
suddenly begin to fence little, crossing
bills and whetting them together. some
times with a whistling sound. meanwhile
All at once one lifts its closed wings
and nibbles at the feathers beneath.
Then the first bird bows once, and.
pointing its beak straight upward. rises
on its toes, pufrs out its breast, and tit
tiers a prolonged nasal A-h-h, with a
rapidly rising infection. reminding one a
little Of a goose and more, OF dis

their ridiculous groan. this figure repre-

presently repeat the performance, the
birds often reversing their role. The
movements are executed in perfect uni

and this fact much enhances the extra
ordinary effect. The pictures convey but
a poor impression of the actual scene:
the wonderful sky and sunshine. the
spotless. shining plumages, and the droll

seen over twenty-five couples dancing
at once.
It is amusing to watch three engage IN

CHAPTER XVIII.
The Battle in the Canyon.


TTUNcHED over, with Isobers
III head sheltered against his
- breast, Philip rode a dozen
PAGES behind the agent. 1t seemed as
if the sun had suddenly burst in molten
fire upon the back of his neck, and for
a time it made him dizzy. His bride
reins hung loosely over the pommel. He
made no effort to guide his horse, which
followed after Billinger's.
1t was Billinger who brought him
back to himself The agent waited for
them. and when he swung over in one
stirrup to look at the girl it was the
animal ferocity in his face, and not his
words, that aroused Philip.
She's coming to-" he said, straining
to keep the tremble out of his voice. Il
this canteen. I'm going ahead"
He gave Philip the water and leaned
over again to gaze into the girls face.
Il don't believe she's much hurt,"
he repeated, in hoarse, dry whisper.
You can leave her at the water hole
just beyond that hill off there-and then
you CAN 1OllOw me-
Philip clutched the girl tighter to him
as the agent rode off. He saw the first
faint flush returning into her cheeks,
the reddening of her lips, the gentle ire
NOR of her silken lashes, and forgetful
of all else but her, he moaned her name,
cried out his love for her, again and
again, even as her eyes opened and she
stared UP into the face of the man who
had come to her first at Lac Balm, and
who had fought for here there. For a
breath or two the wonder of this thing
that was happening held her speechless
and still lifeless, though her senses were
adjusting themselves with lightning
swiftness. At first Philip had not seen
her open eyes, and he believed that she
did not hear the words of love he whis-
pered in her hair. When he raised her
face little from his breast she was
looking at him with all the sweet SAN
ity in the world.
A moment there was silence sill
ence of even the breath in Philips body,
the beating of his heart. His arms
loosened little. He drew himself up
rigid, and the girl lifted her head a
trife, so that their eyes met squarely,
and a world of question and understand
ing passed between them in an instant
As swift as morning glow a flush
mounted into IsobePs face, then ebbed
as swiftly, and Philip cried: you
were hurt-hurt back there in the wreck.
