The town knew what had hap pened the moment it awakened, to- ward daylight, but it had never ex- pected to share the fate of the other raided border settlements.
 Sanders staggered into his clothes and ran into the street. The raiders were still at work upon the business section. but the little residential part was about to be attacked. Isolated parties were drawing nearer. Sanders and Tallman and Elsie lived within a stone's throw of each other. On reaching the street Sanders found small body of men busy making q barrieade. 4 dozen or so of rifles had been discovered, and an impromptu company had been organized

 Sanders took it and loaded it. As he did so cries were heard from a street block away, answered by the yells of the MeXicans. Another party had stolen into the town by differ ent route, and was sweeping forward with the torch, plundering and setting fire to the houses.

Copyright 1916, by w. C. Chapman1
 Tallman was the first to start mak- ing game of Sanders. Sanders was an average little man of the type that IS met everywhere. But the town was small enough for everybody to see everybody else several times a day, and the hot Texan summer makes men irritable or malicious, according to their natures.
 Sanders didn't drink. or smoke. and he wouldn't fight. The last crime was the deadliest. It was shown in this way: TaIlman had invited Sanders to join him at the saloon; Sanders refused, and Tallman called him the sort Of name no self-reSpecting man takes. Sanders turned white. but he didn't strike Tallman. That was San ders' finish in the border town.
 A man is expected to fight. Elsie Duval told Sanders as much when he came calling. Sanders winced. but only took his hat and went.
 Elsie Duvul was the unquestioned belle of the place. Every man was supposed to have proposed to her at one time or another. Tallman. how ever was accredited with leading share in her capricious heart. She had been interested in Sanders be- cause he was q new face, but Tall mans friends had recounted the cpl sode. Everyone knew that little San ders was infatuated with the beauty, and they laughed at it, laughed at the simplicity of the little man. Hell get his quietus soon" they said.
 He did, when he was escorting Miss Elsie from church. Tallman stepped out of the building moment after Sanders had given the girl his arm.
 What do you mean by putting in?" he demanded. Miss Duval has prom ised to walk home with me-"
 Sanders looked at Tallman inquir- ingly. "I'm sorry if I intruded; 1 didn't know" he said
 Tallman burst into laughter. and Elsie ,Duval looked scornfully at San

safety to the little group in return for | Elsie. And, to Sanders horror, Tall. man was listening to him. | Sanders saw Tallman waver irreso- l lutely. He knew what he was saying l to himself that the honor of one girl was of less worth than the lives of all Sanders saw the Mexican stride toward the girl and catch her trium- l phantly in his arms, while the rifles of the raiders covered him and the party behind the barricades. The girl screamed frantically as the brute clutched her. And that was the last thing that Sanders remem- bered. The rest of the story is told by witnesses.
 They speak of seeing Sanders leap from behind the barricade as if im- pelled by a spring, and rush alone, through a scattering shower of bullets, upon the Mexican who held Elsie Duval in his arms. Sanders struck him down with the butt, and then ran into the midst of the raidng horse men, who numbered perhaps fifty.
 He feled their leader from his horse, sprang into the saddle, and cleared d space about him. There was neither room nor time to load or fire. The man seemed to have d round and round his head, and, though menqced from every side, each time the butt fell head broke, aS an egg shell might. After him ran the little body of defenders fewer than 12 men.
 Border annals hardly detail great CT fight against greater odds. But the frightened horses of the dead men con fused the MeXicans, and the Ameri cans hewed a clear passage through their midst and back again.
 They were covered with wounds, but they had lost none of their forces, and suddenly the raiders raised shout of terror and rode for dear life down to the Rio.
 Whether they feared the arrival of re-enforcements cannot be known. The fact remains that Sanders had NdNCh hodItJ HUSH, anu WILL dt llSlS- niticant force.
 He awakened from his trance to find himself standing beside Elsie in the street, breathless and covered with blood, and wondering what had hap pened to him. All that he remembered was seeing the girl in the clutch of the Mexican.
 You are safe, Miss Duval?' he gasped; and as he spoke the look of leadership faded from his face, &..d he was just the insignificant, ordinary little man of yesterday.
 But Elsie threw her arms about his neck and kissed him. It was a public declaration, and she could hardly have done less. For everyone had alized that there exist two sorts of courage, and that brute force is inferior to moral strength.
 At that moment Tallman was about three-quarters of mile away, creep ing down the gulley that wouil take him to the high road out of sight of the settlement.

A Lesson in This.

This bu- reau looks over these papers, and when it finds a town where the merchants are not advertising steadily in the local papers that town is immediately flooded with literature. It always brings results far in excess of the same effort put forth in territory where the local merchants constantly use their local papers"
