CHAPTER X
Molty's Story.

The two rode steadily. following the
trail left by Hamlin and Hughes
earlier In the morning. AS there had
been no wind, and the cold hat crust

ponies we're easily followed. As they
skirted the ridge the Indian pony

was. he might not yet have attained
the Indian encampment. which. In
truth, might be much fartb er away
than Hughes had supposed. The fact
that no spirals Of smoke were visible
puzzled the Sergeant. for In that
frosty air they should naturally be
perceived for a considerable distance.
Possibly. however. the bluffs were
higher and more abrupt. farther up
stream, a6ording better chances Of
concealment. Indeed It was quite
probable hat the Indians would seek
the most sheltered spot available for
their winter camp. irrespective of any
possible fear of attack. Reasonably
safe from a winter campaign, the
atrocities Of the past summer would
naturally lend to make them unusually
cautious and watchful.
Molly, muffled to the eyes In her
thick blanket, permitted her pony to
follow the other without guidance, IN
til they both dipped down into the
eervation. In some mysterious way
the overpowering feeling OF terror
which had controlled her for days past
had departed. The mere presence of
Hamlin was an assurance Of safety.
A she watched him, erect in saddle,
his blue overcoat tightly buttoned. his
revolver belt strapped outside. she no
longer felt any consciousness Of the
surrounding desolation or the nearness
Of savage foes. Her heart beat fast

In silence. Even as she realized the

Sergeant, relaxing o n of his watch

WHEN MILWAUKEE GOES Dry


The following facts concerning the
liquor industry in the beer-ridden city
OF Milwaukee are of interest. They
are taken from the chapter on So
cialism and the Liquor Traffic" in a
volume by Alfred Raymond Johns.
Amount OF capital invested In
liquor making. $5l. 600, 90; number Of
men employed. s.755; value of the
product paid out In wages. Sc per
cent Amount Of capital invested in
all other industries. $1S5,35S.011; num-
Der OF men employed. 104, 461; value
OF the product paid out In wages.
34.s per cent.
With more than oneffth of the
total capital invested, the liquor In
terests employ fewer than onetwen-
ty-third the number OF men and pay
less h one-ffth the per cent In
wages. In other words. II the $751;
oOO,OOO now invested In liquor-mak-
Ing in Milwaukee were transferred TO
some other line OF industry. the city
would be employing 5000 more men
and be receiving more than 500. 900, -

ALCOHOL AND EFFICIENCY.

Temperance work today Is very
practical as compared with the senti-
mental e~xhortations OF yesterday. In
these days, when efficiency" is so
general a watchword in the world OF
business and labor, We are finding not
so directly that a mar is a knave who
drinks to excess, or even at all as that
he Is q fool. A runner who ties a
weight about his leg Is no greater
Ounce than the workingman or the
merchant who puts a dram Of liquor
into his digestion or his brain. 1t
Is capable OF proof by figures and d.
agrams that the drinker OF even al
occasional glass Of wine or beer or
whisky Injuries the work OF both hA
hands and his mind, while the habituai
drinker sows up his mental and man
ual machinery permanently This Is
the gospel Of the new temperance
movement.-New Vienna Reporter.
