manage some day to get the drop on
ROwley, which was Ohio Sans real
name. ana shoot him before he could
draw.
One night Rowley was awakened by
a pistol shot within a few feet of him.
There was just light enough-it was
coming dawn-to see two persons at
the entrance of his cabin. One was
Barton, with a smoking pistol in his
hand; the other was Sal. whose hand
was under Barton weapon. II was
evident that she had just knocked it
upward. The villain retired and was
not seen around the camp again.
ROwley, sensible Of Sal's having
saved his life. after this treated her
with as much consideration as he could
one Of her low degree. This seemed to
encourage her TO tidy up bit, and she
appeared in white wOman's discarded
dress that she picked up somewhere.
One day she went to ROwley and told
him that his enemy, Barton, was hang
ing ut distance about the camp and
Rowiey had best avoid going out where
he could be shot in the back. The
young man smiled and said he didn't
believe Barton quite so low as that and
thought no more about the matter
That same evening, having occasion
to go beyond the camp, he was walking
along when he heard two shots in a
wood by the path and thought he heard
a woman's cry. Turning toward it, he
came upon Sal lying on her back with
a bullet hole in her forehead She was
dead. Seeing mans legs on the
ground, his body concealed behind a
tree, Rowly went to where it was and
found Barton gasping. He died in a
few minutes from a bullet wound be-
hind the ear.
1t was perfectly plain that Sal had
again saved his life, and this time at
the expense of her own. Taking her
up, he carried her to the camp. and as
the denizens gathered round while
Rowley told the story hats came off
one by one and there were those who
had imposed on the girl whose eyes
+ were moist.
Rowley sent word to the girls peo-
pie asking if they wished to show their
dead kinswoman any funeral honors.
They responded: 'Sal no good. Sal
leave her own wigwam to be white
peoples slave We no want her"
This was the reply Rowley received
with regard to a girl who had owned
his life, yet gave her own for its pres
| ervation. The message stung him.
What had he done in acknowledgment,
in repayment for her first interposi-
ton? He could do nothing for the sec
ond. Sadly he arranged for the inter-
ment of the body, and when it took
place those who had not given a kind
word to the Indian girl in life stood
reverently about her grave, each cast
! ing in green sprig.
Somehow Rowley was never the
same man after the tragedy. He could

Lloyd of the firm of Lloyd & Co.,

Lester of Kansas City, Mo-, were res

afternoon with life buoy thrown
them by County Detective Elwood
Minugh and William Conover, who
heard their yells for help from the
Monmouth Boat club house. The young
men arrived at the Lloyd home on
Riverside Drive, New York the day
before for a visit over Sunday on the
north shore of the Shrewsbury. Mr..
Lloyd was anxious to try out his new
ice yacht, Caprice, and to show his
chum what thrilling sport iceboat-
ing was.
For Mr. Lester had never been on
an iceboat before. With young Lloyd
at the tiller and his chum lying in the
cockpit, they were flying up and down
the river in a heavy northwest wind.

Skipper Lloyd tried to slow up, but

enough so that the plant roots are
well spread and the crown Of the plant,
the point where the roots and the
stems join, is just above the surface
Of the soil. Cover the roots deeply,
and tread the soil firmly around the
plants. Pick off the blossoms and dead
leaves and keep the blossoms of the
plants during the first season so as to
conserve the energy of the plant and
get it we'll established. Be careful not
to allow the roots Of the plants to be-
come dry before they are placed in
the ground.
Some of the plants are perfect and
can fertilize the seed, while other
plants in the same bed do not produce
pollen, hence require pollen from 9th
err plants to produce fruit. For this
reason it is good plan to set one
row Of perfect plants for every two
rows Of the imperfect plants, although
this rule admits of a great deal Of
variation.
As soon as the plants are set in the
ground, water them we'll to bring the
soil particles in close contact with the
roots, and then either cultivate the
ground between the rows or cover 1t
with straw to prevent weed growth.
The cultivation is much preferable
during the first season. However,
many successful growers find it ad.
visable to cover the ground with
straw until after the fruit is harvested
from bearing bed, as it not only
prevents the growth of weeds by
shading them, but it keeps the ripen-
ing fruit from being covered with mud
