newspaper man what kind OF a

that he had done all he could do with

into Jog. From the men inside the
fence came no note of derision, nc
hint Of triumph. They stood looking
out with expressionless, masklike
faces until their enemies had passed
out Of sight around the shoulder OF
the mountain. The Souths had met and
fronted an accusation made after the
enemy's own choice and method. A
jury of two hounds had acquitted
them. 1t was not only because the
dogs had refused to recognize In Sam

KEEP IDLE HORSES HEALTHY
Best Thing for AzoturIa Is Prevention,
Says Doctor ReynoIds-Water and
Exercise Essential.

The symptoms of azoturia are easily
recognizable. A horse comes out Of
the stable apparently in the best of
condition. He is driven but a short dis
lance before he shows signs of lame
ness or stiffness in his hind legs. He
staggers and may fall before he can
be unhitched. He perspires freely. The
muscles over the loins and hips become
rigid and frequently tender, often
trembling and twitching.
According to DR.. M. H. Reynolds
the best thing for azoturia is proven.
ton. When horse must remain idle
for a few days the grain ration should
be reduced. II horse is very fat he
should be fed no grain. Every horse
should be given plenty of water and
turned out for exercise daily. II the
grain ration has not been reduced dur.
ing q period of idleness in any case.
the horse should have q cathartic be-
fore being put into harness again. A
quart Of raw linseed oil SO hours be-
fore hitching is a safe dose. Work
should be light for the first day aftcr
idleness, as violent exercise is likely
to invite an attack.

CHAPTER v.

From time to time that day, neigh.
bors had ridden up to Spicer south'a
sttle. and drawn rein for gossip. These
men brought bulletins as to the prog.
ress Of the hounds, and near eundown,
as postscript to their information, a
volley of gunshot signals sounded from
a mountain top. No word was spoken,
but in common accord the kinsmen
rose from their chairs. and drifted to.
ward their leaning rifles.
They're a-comin' 'hyar," said the
head Of the house, CURLY. Samson
ought ter be home. Whar's Tam'rack?'
No one had noticed his absence un
til that moment. nor was he to be
found. A few minutes later, Samson's
figure swung into sight, and his uncle
met him at the fence.
Samson, I've done asked We all the
questions I'm a-goin' ter ask ye," he
said. "but them dawgs is maxim fel
this house. They've Jest been sighted
mile below"
Samson nodded.
"Now"-Spicer South's face hard
ened-"1 owns down thar ter the road
No man kin cross that fence withouter
l choose ter give him leave. Eff ye
wants ter go indoors an stay thar, ye
kin do hit-an' no dawg ner no mar
hain't a-goin' ter ask ye no questions
But. eff .ye sees At ter face hit out, I'd
love ter prove ter these hyar men thet
US Souths don't break our word. We
done agreed ter this truce. I'd like tel
invite 'em in. an let them damn dawgs
sniff round the feet OF every man IL
my house-an' then, when they're
plumb teetotally damn satisfied, I'd
like ter tell 'em all ter go ter hell
Thet's the way feels, but I'm a-goin
ter do jest what We says"
Lescott did not overhear the con
versation in full, but he saw the old
mans face work with suppressed pas
sion, and he caught samson's loude,
reply.
when them folks gets hyar, Uncle
Spicer, I'm a-goin' ter be a-settin'

"Does anybody live on Misery that
-er-that you might suspect?"
The Hollmans laughed.
This creek is settled with Souths
thicker'n hops"
The Lexington man looked up. He
knew what the name of South meant
to Holman.
"Is there any special South. who
might have a particular grudge?"
THE Souths don't need no parti'lar
grudge. but thar's young Samson
South. He's q wildcat"
He lives this way?"
these dogs air a-makin' Decline
fer his house," Jim Holman was
speaking. Then he added: 1--WE done
been told that Samson denies dom the
shootin', an claims he kin prove an
alibi."
The Lexington man lighted his pipe
and poured a drink of red whisky into
flask cup.
He'd be apt to say that" he com
mented. These dogs haven't any
prejudice in the matter. I'll stake my
life on their telling the truth"
An hour later, the group halted
again. The master of hounds mopped
his forehead.
Are we still going toward Samson
south's house?" he inquired.
We're about quarter from hit
now, an we hain't never varied from
the straight road"
will they be apt to give us
trouble?"
Jim Holman smiled.
Il hain't never heered Of no South
submitttn' ter arrest by Holman"
The trailers examined their fire.
arms, and loosened their holster-faps.
The dogs went forward at trot.

Tribute Money.

Fancy long ago said that the black
marks on either side of the head of the
paddock were made by the Apostles
finger and thumb as they held him,
while extracting the tribute money

The paddock Is not found in the Sea
Of Galilee! Most Of the fish there be-
long to the barbel family, and no one
has ever told US authoritatively what
particular variety the tribute bearins
fish belonged to. The "half shekel"
Of the tribute was 112 grains Troy
weight of silver. say nearly q quarter
Of an ounce. worth about thirteen
cents today, but greatly more in those
days.
