lowed them. The council at pre-
vious meeting voted to take $500 and
allow them to conduct a warehouse
but this action was recinded Monday
night.
A new sprinkling ordinance was
brought in at this meeting but An
drew Peterson objected to its being
passed to it's second reading and the
matter will go over for month.
A resolution was introduced by
Alderman Bryan providing that the
city attorney take the matter of rates
paid by the city to the Washburn
Water company for hydrant rental up
with the Wisconsin Railway Commits
sion in the hope of getting them
lowered. 1t was the opinion of the
alderman that the rates paid by
the city were excessive.
An ordinance was presented by
Alderman Lysager providing for the
closing of all saloons of the city
at eleven clock every evening and
all day Sunday. Mr.. Lysager stated
to the council that it was his belief
that the saloon question could be bet
ter handled if there was an ordinance
on the books of the city.
Mayor Peavey and Alderman Bryan
seemed to take the opposing view to
Mr.. Lysager and discussed the pro-
posed ordinance at some length, stat
ing that there was a state law cover
ing the same ground, and motion
was made to lay the ordinance on the
table and it was SO done by vote of
8 to 4 which practically means death
to the proposed ordinance. A petit
ton was presented containing sixty
names asking for the passage of the
ordinance and this was also laid on
the table.
The Council ordered the Dow
building condemned as unsafe.
The resignation of George Fluck
as alderman from the first ward was
presented to the council and was ac-
cepted. The mayor will appoint an
alderman to fill the vacancy.
A special committee was appointed
to investigate the advisability of the
city purchasing a team for street
work.
The mayor made the following
school board appointments: o. M.
Olson to succeed James N. Kinney
from the End ward; John Walsh as
Commissioner at large to succeed
Henry Johnson and A. P. Fraser from
the 4th ward to succeed C. P. Lysa-
ger, resigned.
The council ordered a sewer con-
structed on 5th street east between
End and 3rd avenues.

Washburn did not get around the

CHAPTER XVI.
Unseen Danger.

Once he paused, blinded by the
snow, flung up his arm, and fred.
imagining he saw the dim shape Of a
man on the ridge summit There was
no return shot, no visible movement.
Reckless, mad with rage, he sprang
up the wind-swept side. and reached
the crest. 1t was deserted, except for
tracks already nearly obliterated by
the fierce wind. Helpless, baff1ed, the
Sergeant stared about him into the
driving fakes. his ungloved, stiffen-
ing hand gripping the cold butt of
his Colt, ready for any emergency.
Nothing but vacancy and silence en-
compassed him. At his feet the snow
was still trampled; he could see
where the man had kneeled to fire;
where he had run down the opposite
side of the hill. There had been only
one-a white man from the imprint
and he had fed south, vanishing in
the smother.
1t required an effort for the Ser
geant to recover. to realize his true
position, and the meaning of this mys-
terious attack. He was no longer
numb with cold or staggering from
weakness. The excitement had sent
the hot blood pulsing through his
veins; had brought back to his heart
the fighting instinct Every desire
urged him forward, clamoring for re-
venge, but the aroused sense of a
plainsman held him motionless, star
ing about, listening for any sound. Be
hind him, down there In the hollow,
were huddled the horses of his out
fit, scarcely distinguishable from
where he stood If he should venture
farther off, he might never be able

snaifs, when the pale sickly dawn

desolation, stretching white and ghast-

ghostly outline Of small elevation
doomed through the murk. He stared
at 1t scarce believing, imagining de-
fusion, and then sent his cracked
voice back in shout on the wind.
We're thar, Brick! My God, lad,
here's the Cimarron!"
He wheeled about, shading his
mouth, so as to make the words carry
through the storm.

AS though startled by some electric
shock, Hamlin sprang forward. his
limbs Strengthening in response to
fresh hope, plowed through the snow
to Carroll's side, and shook and
slapped the fellow into semi-congcious-

cried, jerking up the dangling head.
Wake up, man! Wake up! Do you

The man made desperate effort,
Tracing his hands on the horses neck
and staring at his tormentor with dull,
unseeing eyes.

went down again.
Hamlin struck him twice, his chilled
hand tingling to the blow, but the
inert figure never moved.

The ghostly shape of the hill was to
their right, and they circled it's base
almost waist-deep in drift. This

faces, and the horses baked, dragging
back and compelling both men to beat
them into submission WATSON was
