In the warmth Of the fire Kazan's
eyes slowly closed. He slumbered un-

troubled pictures. At times he was

CHAPTER III.
Mccready Pays The Debt.

"S~EeAoy rays In0 OSDt.
For long time after he had uttered
those words McCready sat in silence
beside the fire. Only for moment or
two at time did his eyes leave Ka-
zan. After little, when he was sure
that Thorpe and Isobel had retired for
the night, he went into his own tent
and returned with flask of whisky.
During the next half-hour he drank
frequently. Then he went over and
sat on the edge Of the sledge, just be-
yOnd the reach Of Kazan's chain.
Got you, didn't II" he repeated, the
effect of the liquor beginning to show
In the glitter Of his eyes. "Wonder
who changed your name, Pedro. And
how did he come by you? Ho, no, if
you could only talk"
They heard Thorpe's voice inside the
tent. 1t was followed by a low, girlish
peal Of laughter, and McCready jerked
himself erect. His face blazed sud-

fastened to trees Just within the outer
circle Of freight Kazan saw the
shadowy forms and cleaning eyes of
his teammates. He stood stiff and mo.

his forests-and In command. His
mistress was laughing and clapping
her hands delightedly In the excite.
ment Of the strange and wonderful life
Of which she had now become part,
Thorpe had thrown back the flap of
their tent, and she was entering ahead
Of him. She did not look back. She
spoke no word to him. He whined,
and turned his red eyes on McCready.
In the tent Thorpe was saying:
"1'm sorry old Jackpine wouldn't 20
back with us, Issy. He drove me
down, but for love or money couldn't
get him to return. He's a Mission In
dian, and I'd give a months salary. to

not sure about this man McCready,
He's queer chap, the compdny's agent
here tells me, and knows the woods
like book. But dogs don't like Il
stranger. Kazan isn't going to take
to him worth cent?"
Kazan heard the girls voice, and
stood rigid and motionless listening to
1t. He did not hear or see McCready
when he came up stealthily behind
him. The mans voice came as sud-
denly as a shot at his heels.
"Pedro!"
In an instant Kazan cringed as If
touched by lash.
"G0t you that time-didn't I, you old
devil!" whispered McCready, his face
strangely pale In the freight.

THE DIETRICH SCHOOL FAIR

Whoever conceived and executed the
idea OF school fair BY the Dietrich
schools is entitled not only 10 the
thanks OF the Dietrich community but
to the entire county. The fair was
scheduled for last Friday. Through
the mOdesty Of Prof Smith and others
in charge Of the fair il was advertised
but little outside OF the Dietrich tract
There were 300 entries altogether.
OF these come 200 were agricultural
exhibits anl the other 100 were dividef;
among fancy work, poultry and live
stock The fair opened in the morning
by the school visiting In a body the ex-
perimental farm where stock judging
demonstration was made By H G.
Avery, county agricultural agent The
pupils were required TO take notes Of
the demonstrate and these were to
be used during the coming week as
the basis ri their school work At the
noon hour the people present were
on the school grounds for their lunches
and the pupils Of the school served hot
coffee free to all After dinner the
time was devoted to athletic sports.
the chief OF which was a basket ball
game between Dietrich and BessIin
schools.
The evening exercises were conduct
ed in the high school auditorium where
addresses were delivered by County
Superintendent Miss Cook, Earl Way

Trail, Harvey Aired. state farm mar

tor Of the Shoshone Journal At the
close Of the exercises the high school
pupils opened lunch sale which was
patronized to the extent OF the pupils
selling out everything .eataSe and
drinkable they had on hands.
The Dietrich schools are to be con
graduated on the showing made Al
this local fair. It was a happy thought
and we'll executed. The exhibits were
a surprise. even 10 the home folks who
had no idea Of the quality Of their
products until some OF the choicest
samples were gathered together and
arranges for as exhibit. The state fair
at Boise could not excel this school
exhibit except in the quantity OF mat
eriaI on display. The state fair could
gather a larger Hsplay but it iould not
excel the quality OF the products Ev-
erything grown on Idaho farms was
there in the superlative degree. even
