Grays moved into his neighborhood-

he began to wish he wasn't so
"speckled," for the Grays had a four
-year-old daughter whom Freckled
Tom thought very fair.
One afternoon Tom was making the
short cut across the back yard of the
Grays' place, thus reaching his own
home half minute earlier than by

that what 1 tell you is true. Let the
creature do its work. 1t Will do no
harm-but great good. Can you trust

Andris looked into Bonitas eyes
and saw something very mysterious
there-somethirs he could not solve
But he knew she was serious and that
what she said was true.

Bonita did not stay long. The TALLER
called for her very soon. and as she
kissed her father. she said: Never

Then she went away and Andris
prepared himself for bed. Soon he
was fast asleep, dreaming of his lib
crty-the dearest thing on earth to
him after his darling Bonita. When
he awoke after full nights sleep
Cfor he had a clear conscience) he
saw the spider had woven web from
the table to the top Of the high
window which was covered with three
iron bars. But nowhere could he see
the spider. When the Tailor entered
with his Wretched breakfast he
noticed the spiders web and said

Then, 1t being quite dark, the two
assembled the ladder and found the
iron bars in tho window loose. These
were soon removed, and they beheld
another spider web leading to the
ground. Down that they went. Then
they assembled the wall; then down on
the other side by meanD of other
webs. and found the pony-cart, with
a swiftly-going horse hitched to 1t, oil
ready for them to start.

building a small air-ship model.
The following week the Grays went
out of town to visit some relatives in
an adjoining county. They were to
be gone three weeks. Three days
after their departure Tom heard the
weak mewing of kitten in their BACK
yard, and going over the fence. ne

starved. He knew II to be Julia Gray's

He merely ran and jumped the fence

hands and meat and other cold bits

back to the starving kitty. The way
the little creature ate made Toms

to rummage about the place. hoping
to find some sort of shelter 6or the
lonely creature. A garage was in the
rear of the house and Tom found a
small window open. lie crawled
through it, and from the inside opened
the great door about SIX inches, prop

FROM home he fetched basket and

Kitty. Then he set food beside the
basket and called tho kitten into the

took up their life anew and began
to prosper. They were given many
horses by their friends, the Co.
manches, and built their wigwams and
tepees on the banks of the Little
Arkansas river. But hardly had they
become settled when new calamity
befell them. The wild tribes became
involved in war among themselves,
and troops from st. Louis were scat
tered along the old Santa Fe trail.
They brought the cholera, which
spread like prairie fire over the diff
ferent reservations Of the Indians in
both Kansas and tho Indian Terri
tory. This dread disease made havoc
among the peaceful Wichitas, carrying
off their chief Owaha. A little later
the combined cruelties of prairie
fire and white outlaws again made
inroads on the Wichitas. and their
renewed sufferings were past under
standing.
In 1858 the Wichitas. what was

their descendants remain to this day.
