CHAPTER VII.
In the Sand Desert.

Suddenly Keith halted, bringing his
ponys head sharply about, so that the
two faced one another. The wind was
rising, hurting clouds of sand into
their eyes, and the plainsman held one
hand before his face.
There's no need Of keeping up a
water trail any longer" he said quiet

rolled YEARLY from the saddle, bur-
rowed under the partial shelter of a
sand dune, and called upon Neb to
follow him. With their hands and feet
they made a slight wind break, drag
ging the struggling ponies into its
protection, and burrowed themselves
there, the clouds of sand skurrying
over them so thick as to obscure the
sky. and rapidly burying them alto
gether as though In a grave. Within
an hour they were compelled to dig
themselves out, yet 1t proved partial
escape from the pitiless flashing. The
wind howled like Embossed demons,
and the air grew cold, adding to the
sting of the grit, when some sudden
eddy hurled it into their hiding place.
To endeavor further travel would
mean certain death, for no one could
have guided course for a hundred
feet through the tempest.
1t was three o'clock before 1t died
sufficiently down for them to venture
out. Even then the air remained full
of sand. while constantly shifting
ridges made travel difficult. Only
grim necessity-the suffering of the
ponies for water, and their own need
for soon reaching the habitation of
man and acquiring food-drove them
to the early venture. They must at
tain the valley of the Salt Fork that
night, or else perish in the desert
there remained no other choice. Ty-
ing neckerchiefs over their horses
eyes, and lying fiat themselves, they
succeeded in pressing slowly forward,
winding in and out among the shift
ing dunes, with only the wind to guide
them. 1t was an awful trail, the hoofs
sinking deep In drifting sand. the
struggling ponies becoming 80 Elk

"A hundred and fifty miles as the
crow flies, and sand all the way, ex-
cept for the valley of Salt Fork. Come
on now, and keep close. for it's easy
to get lost In these sand hills"
Keith had ridden that hundred and
fifty miles of sandy desolation before,
but had never been called upon to
make such journey as this proved to
be. He knew there was little to fear
from human enemies, for they were
riding far enough east of the Santa Fe
trail to be out of the path of raiding
Stunned by Indian hunters. 1t con-
sisted of sand hill after sand hill, a
drear waterless waste, where nothing
grew, and mid the dread sameness Of
which traveller could only find pass
age by the guidance of stars at night
or the blazing sun by day.
They had covered ten miles OF 1t by
daybreak, their ponies travelling heavi-
ly, fetlock deep, but could advance no
further. With the first tiyt of rose in
the east the brooding storm burst
upon them in wild desert fury, the
fierce wind buffeting them back, lash
ing their faces with sharp grit until
they were unable to bear the pain.
The flying sand smote them In clouds,
driven with the speed of bullets. In
vain they lay fiat, urging their ponies
forward; the beasts, maddened and
blinded by the merciless flashing Of the
sand, refused to face the storm. Keith,
all sense of direction long since lost,

and then vanishing below. Once
Keith's horse half fell. plunging nose

fore the rider had deserted his saddle.
dim darkness ahead already re-
vealed the nearness Of the southern
bank, when Neb's pony went down
suddenly, swept fairly OF it's legs by
some fierce eddy in the stream. Keith
heard the negro's cultural cry, and
caught a glimpse of him as the two
were sent whirling down. The coiled

driftwood, or borne to the center of

current. But II Neb had failed to re-
