The Red Arrow

Believing that the two Pawnee
war parties would attack simulta-
neously, the crafty Cheyenne chief
divided his force to repel them. He
stationed some of his warriors a.
long the stream to prevent the Paw
nees from crossing, and posted
others in the timber to resist the
horsemen. The young Sioux were
assigned to the latter command.
Sheltering themselves behind trees,
the lads fitted arrows to their bows
and waited with the calmness of
seasoned veterans.
Having halted beyond arrow
range, the horsemen were singing
their war-songs and shouting taunts
and insults at their foes. They
called the Cheyennes women and
dared them to come out and fight.
Then, having reused themselves
to frenzy, they raised their vol
ces In the Pawnee war-cry, and
charged forward at top speed of
their ponies. At the same instant
their companions left their horses
in the timber and attempted to
fight their way across the stream
Assailed from front and rear, the
Cheyennes fought with great fury,
and the Pawnees recoiled before
the stubborn resistance Both war
parties were driven back with loss,
while the Cheyennes passed through
the encounter without losing a man.
1t was only a few moments, how
ever, before the horsemen wheeled
and made another attack AS they
came within bow-shot they disap-
peared behind their horses and
raced past, shooting their arrows
from beneath the necks of their
ponies. One warrior, more reck-
less than his companions, rode to
the very edge of the timber. and
killed a Cheyenne. AS he raced
away unframed the Sioux recog
nized him as the intrepid leader
who rode the white war-pony in the
previous battle with the Cheyennes

ped proudly by the box in which
Bobby sat the child clapped his
hands in delight, while the boy
rider smiled in recognition of the
applause. AS the horses stood in
a row. impatiently paving the
ground, the tent rocked with the
shouts of the vast audience.
The red flag dropped and the
horses darted away on their race.
But Bessie saw nothing of them
flashing by, for her thoughts were
busy with her own life. They were
reaching back to her own home of
childhood, when. with her father
and mother, her days had been full
of happiness. even if her home was
not one of wealth. With tears in
her eyes she imagined the long
years of the future, really alone in
life in the midst of splendor, but
with no loving heart to cheer her
days.
Suddenly there came roar from
the threats of the people about her.
Around 1.-The course came the rae
ers, stretching their necks and leap
ing on in great strides, while the tu-
mutt of the excited audience rose
and fell. The gray was now in
front, his eyes cleaning as he sped
over the ground. Behind him came
the pretty black, with it's nostrils
wide and his dainty feet fairly fly

Bobby was so excited that he

but before it reached the front of
the box in which the child had
leaped upward, there was cry,
a babyish figure fell forward, then

ring and directly in front of the
rushing horses Bessie saw Bobby
fall. But before he had touched
the ground she had leaped after
him. AS her feet struck the ground

HOW BESSIE SAVED BOBBY

The sun was pouring down it's
beating rays on the circus grounds
and about the great white bullying
canvas was a shifting crowd of per-
spring people, pushing and showing
their way toward the ticket wagon.
In the crowd were Mrs. Burton,
little Bobby, who was S, and Bessie
Burton. Bessie Burton was not
Mrs. Burton's daughter. but her hus-
bands niece. and as the girl was
an orphan, Mrs. Burton had taken
the girl to live with her in her fine
home. Yet it cannot be said she
was kind to the child for though
she gave her plenty of food and
clothing, she never seemed to real
ly like Bessie.
Bobbie was her idol. The boy
loved Bessie. and that made the
mother bit jealous. In the great
house with it's servants and wide
halls, the girl felt alone and craved
affection, but she met in Mrs. Bur
ton only cold politeness. But to-
day Bessie was happy Holding
Bobby's hand she wandered about
in the crowd fascinated by the
noise, the strange sights and the
blaring bands.
Then. when they were seated
In the box near the ring, she en-
joyed hearing the child scream with
delight. The acrobats swung on
high, the clowns tumbled around in
funny antics. the lemonade boys
shouted themselves hoarse, and dur
ing it all Bessie and Bobbie sat en-
tranced by the music and the dis
play of color.
Bessie" at length said Mrs. Bur
ton, 81 am so tired, l think I will
go home"

corn and his fat legs kicking the
bench. 81 want to see the races

hope he will win"
To the shouts of the crowd the
racers took their places at one end

sorrel, a gray and the pretty black,

''I believe he will be killed." re-
piled Sun Bird.
In the mean time the second war
party had made another attempt to
cross the stream. The Cheyennes
stopped them before they got half
way across, however, and they re-
treated in wild disorder. Encour-
aged by their success, some of the
Cheyennes rushed recklessly into
the water, and two were killed, as
the Pawnees turned and drove
them back to cover.
Then the Pawnees became more,
cautions. They realized that their
superiority in numbers was of
slight advantage while their foes
held their position in the timber.
1t was evident that they could not
dislodge the Cheyennes without suf-
fering heavy loss, and they were
unwilling to make the sacrifice.
They determined, therefore, to
wait until dark, when they hoped
to steal into the timber and over
whelm their enemies in a reckless
hand-toh hand conflict.
The Cheyennes watched the
Pawnee horsemen with much in
terest. They knew that they were
holding a council, and they won
dered what the result would be-
Then they saw a warrior detach
himself from the company and ride
away toward the south.
'Now | know this thing" said
War Eagle. THAT rider will circle,
and cross the stream. ! believe he
is going to talk with his brothers.
1t is good; we will watch for him."
Feeling sure of his conclusion.
the Cheyenne chief dispatched four
scouts to intercept the Pawnee
rider. They hurried away on foot.
two toward the west and two to-
ward the east. Then the Chey-
ennes composed themselves to
await the next move of their enc
mics.
The day was more than half
gone when the warriors on guard
at the edge of the water called the
attention of their comrades to a
column OF smoke rising above the
