We clasped hands, and then, IS Bar

lowed, my only thought now to do all
that was required Of me. 1 did not
glance backward, yet was aware
that D'Artigny was close behind.
Barbeau. lying low like a snake,
crept cautiously forward, making not
the slightest noise, and closely hug

l ~endeavored to initiate his every mo-

ward by gripping my fingers into the
rock-strewn earth.
We advanced by inches, pausing
now and then to listen b~reathlessly
to the low murmur of the Indian
voices, and ~endeavoring to note any
change In the posture Of the barely
distinguishable figures. We were
within a very few yards Of them, 50
close, indeed, I could distinguish the
individual forms, when Barbeau
paused, and, with deliberate caution,
rose on one knee. Realizing instantly
that he was preparing for the des-
perate leap, I also lifted my body, and
braced myself for the effort. D'Artigny
touched me, and spoke, but his voice
was so low 1t scarcely reached my
ears.
"Do not hesitate; run swift and
straight. Give Barbeau the signal"
What followed is to me a delirium
Of fever, and remains In memory in
distinct and uncertain. I reached out.
and touched Barbeau; I heard the sud-
den roar Of D'Artigny's voice, the
sharp report of the soldiers rifle. The
fame cut the dark as though it was
the blade Of a knife, and, In the swift
red glare. I saw a savage throw up
his arms and fall headlong. Then all
was chaos, confusion, death. Nothing
touched me, not ever q gripping hand,
but there were Indian shots, giving
me glimpse Of the hellish scene, Of
naked bodies, long, waving hair, eyes
mad with terror, and red arms bran
dished, the rifles they bore shining in
the red glare.
/ saw Barbeau grip his gun by the
barrel and strike as he ran. Again
and again it fell crunching against

with a cleaning knife, but | struck
the red arm with my pistol butt, and
the Indian fell fat, leaving the way
open. We dashed through, but Bar

ANOTHER BRoOkINGs CASE

Many Suffering Brookings Folks

Just another report of a case in
Brookings. Another typical case. Kid
ney ailments relieved in Bookings
with Doan's Kidney Pills.
Alexander Rodgers, farmer, eight
miles south west of Brookings, says:
For years l was subject to attacks of
kidney trouble. When l over-worked
my hack gave out and l was laid up.
There was a steady ache in my loins
and my feet and ankles were badly
swollen. The kidney secretions caus-
ed me much annoyance. l was feeling
miserable when I read about Doan's
Kidney Pills. l began using them and
they gave me great benefit and l am

fess that. But do you not see that a
blow from your hand struck at Fran
co.'s Cassion would separate US for
ever? Surely that Is not the end you
seek. / would not have you bear az
front longer, yet no open quarrel will
serve TO better our affairs. Certainly
no clash Of swords. Perhaps II can
not be avoided, for Cassion nav so

straint. But | beg Of you. monsieur,
TO hold your hand. to restrain your
temper-for my sake"
"You make 1t a trial, a test?"
"Yes-it Is a test. But, monsieur,
there Is more involved here than mere
happiness. You must be cleared Of
the charge OF crime, and / must learn
the truth Of what caused my mar
rage. Without these facts the future
can hold out no hope for either of us.
And there Is only one way In which
this end can be accomplished-a con-
fession by Casslon. He alone knows
the entire story Of the conspiracy, and
there is but one way In which he can
be induced to talk"
"You mean the same method you
proposed to me back on the Ottawa? p

voice.

refused me before. but I see no harm,

no sense Of honor. They have made me
their victim, and I am fully justified In
turning their own weapons against
them. l have never hesitated in my pur-

the weapons which God has put into
my hands to wiring from him the bitter
trutli--the weapons OF a woman, love,
