| be done was for the white chiefs al
Washington to agree on the price to
be paid for the mineral land and for
a delegation of tribal chiefs to 90 to
Washington and put their marks on
the treaty paper.
A question or two from Hardy
brought out the angry complaint that
when Nogen began to dig stones he
told the chiefs there would be no
treaty, and that the tribe must dig
the stones for him, or they would re-
celve no more issue goods. Chief Van
and Blg-mouth (Dupont) had tried to
get Nogen to give trade goods to the
young men and women who had dug
holes. But Nogen would not allow 1t.
Then a bad Indian had shot Nogen,
and Van had shot the killer. The tribe
did not blame Chief Van. But they
had felt bad toward Nogen and they
had felt bad toward the new agent be-
cause they thought he would do as No
gen had done. Now they would like
the new agent. No Indian would wish
to kill him when 1t became known
what he intended to do for the tribe.
After the old chief finished this ex-
PLANTATION, Hardy found himself well
come and hOnored guest in the camp.
At his suggestion T-Owa-konza readily
agreed to send out runners in the
morning to call a council at the mine
the day after. Hardy, in turn, prom
ised to draw up papers to make smooth
the way of the delegation of chiefs in
Washington.
At sign from her grandfather, Oin-
ma now brought food to the guest.
While he ate he talked with her about
her experience in the camp. She told
him joyously that her mothers father
and, all his family and band had been
very kind to her and had been hospit-
able, though not so kind, to her broth
er.
But when Hardy casually inquired
whether Redbear had left the camp at
the same time as 'Vandervyn, the girls
flow Of conversation came to an abrupt
stop. She blushed and stammered and
became so painfully shy and confused
that Hardy considerably feigned
drOwsiness.

Tears gushed into the girls eyes.
She dropped her head and skunk away
as If Vandervyn had struck her.
Hardy's face became like iron.
"Mr. Vandervyn," he admonished,
"do not let me again hear you speak
to any woman in that tone"
Vandervyn shrugged. "The chival-

she served her grandfather and the
guest, Hardy suggested that she 60
with him to the mine, where they prob
ably would find Marie and the rest Of
the party. Reluctant as was Ti-owa-

granddaughter, he ordered her pony

planned to Hardy that the mine was

Old chief and set out up the mountain

Hardy noted the bearings and dis

Hsing a cloud of blue-black smoke.
Soon Oinna pointed out d cabin
arhong the pines. They were within
fifty yards Of it when Vandervyn and
Dupont came out of hole In the cliff
end of spur-ridge near the cabin, and
stood staring at the newcomers in un-
disguised astonishment. Hardy
swerved and hastened toward them,
his eyes bright and cold. The two
men glanced at one another and ad-
vanced to meet him halfway.
Dupont was the first to speak: "By
Gar, Cap, we sure are mighty glad to
see you ag'in all safe and sound |!
Thought you'd gone and lost yourself
on that cussed mountain. The p'leece
are back there now, looking for you"
"And you two are here, / see," dry
ly rejoined Hardy.
II beg your pardon, Captain Hardy"
replied Vandervyn, his eyes flashing
with quick anger. "You told me to eV
ahead and guard Marie"
II added for you to send the police
around to flank the assassin"
Vandervyn drew himself up stifly.
"You have my word, sir, that 1 heard
nothing of that"
"In common decency, you might
have returned to see what had become
of me-" returned Hardy.
Dupont hastened. to lnterpose: 'Mr.

CHAPTER x-contInued.

When Hardy saw the couple ride
ahead, he would have ordered them
back had not Dupont again assured
him that the girl would not be in the
slightest danger at any time during
the trip.
"You were not % certain Of the
friendliness Of the Indians toward her
the other day" remarked Hardy.
Dupont scratched his head. "Well.
no, wasn't, Cap; that's no lie. That
there, though, was difrrent. I'm going
now by what Mr.. Van says about the
feeling in the camps. Wisht felt as
sure about you"
"Never mind about me. If your
daughter is safe, that is quite sufti-
eient. You say this mine Is centrally
located with relation to the various
camps. We will 60 to 1t first and en-
deavor to get the tribe to meet us there
In council"
"At the miner mumbled Dupont.
"We-e-ll, you're the boss"
The party now entered Sioux Creek
canyon and followed the narrow path
alongside the torrent until they came
to the first small Indian camp. The
Indians met Marie and Vandervyn
with friendly greetings, but looked at
Hardy with a stolid concealment of
III feeling that, according to Dupont,

his jaw, and ordered the party to start
on into the mountains.
Noon found the party over twenty
miles from the agency by trail, though
less than half that distance in an air
line. They had come upon no more In
dian camps and had seen no more In
dians. Late AFTERNOON found them far
In among the mountains, with snowy
peaks on every side. Yet they were
still a long ten miles by trail from
their destination. Upon learning from
Dupont that there was no desirable
camp-slte nearer than the mine, Hardy
asked his companion to ride forward
and urge all to faster pace.
The rest Of the party had rounded a
heap Of rock that lowered up like a
ruined castle at the ridge summit, and
Vandervyn was about to follow them
out Of sight, when the thoroughbred
came to full stop, thirty yards down
the trail, at the.it6ot ot.jkha steebest
part Of the climb. Conslderate of the
fact that his tall mount was at a dis
advantage in such a situation as COM

did not urge the mare to carry him up

He paused moment, waiting to see
II she would make the attempt; volup-
tarily. She stood motionless. He pat
ted her neck and dropped down out
Of the saddle. The suddenness of the
movement alone saved him from the
bullet that pinged down the mountain
side and passed above the saddle pre-
cisely where, an instant before, had
been his midbody.
The report of the rife had yet to
reach Hardy's ear when he peered over
