OF Sioux creek into the agency valIey,
Vandervyn was still US gay and good
humored ms at the start of the jour

vene for Hardy with Marie.
III is very kind of you to make the
offer" replied Hardy in rather stiff
tone. III Dupont is at home, may
ask you to send him to the officer
Certainly" replied vandervyn, and
all the way down to the agency he
chatted genially. When they came to
the level behind the warehouse, he
waved his hand in friendly parting
''S'long. See you later. Be sure to

Dupont soon dumped into the
agency office, fairly oozing with jOvial
friendliness.

Since the return of the party from

of the fnct that they Ind been chosen
to mike the night ride TO the railroad |
Hardy returned to the office with
Dupont, and became deeply absorbed
in discussing ways and means for the
development of the Indians as farm
ers. When Dupont noted the hour,
there seemed scarcely time for even
one Of the captain's quick-change tot
lets. Yet he appeared at the door of
the Dupont house, spick and span and
his beard clean shaven, without hav-
ing required his hostess to wait sup
per half minute.
AS he entered in response to Du-
points hospitahle below, there was a
perceptible hesitancy In his manner.
Marie was seated at the far end Of the

came forward 10 greet Hardy, her chin
proudly upulted.

CHAPTER XIV.


In the morning Oinna did not show
herself outside the cabin, though
Hardy called kindly good morning
to her. Her brother, with one arm
carefully bandaged and In sling,
brought out the breakfast that she
cooked. He looked so weak and I'M
steady that Hardy at once assented
when he mumbled that he wished to
go back to bed and rest until the
council.
''You must have your wits about
you this time" added Hardy. what
ever the cause of the misunderstood
ing at the first council, it must not
recur. You are too careless in your
interpretations. Inform your sister
that she is to be present. shall re-
quire her to check you"
Would you make a girl as shy as
she is stand up in a tribal council
and interpret7" demonstrated Wander
vyn, as Redbear skunk around the end
OF the cabin.
1.-THE presence of her grandfather
will give her courage" replied Hardy
at Is necessary that she should be
present. / do not trust either the
ability or the honesty of her brother"
yandervyn shrugged, and said no
more. Half an hour or so later he
asked permission to use Hardy's pen
and pad to write some letters. The
captain handed them to him. and
started up the mountalnside above
the tunnel mouth. A steep path led up
to the top of the spur ridge from
which the shaft had been sunk from
the apex Of the outcrop Of the vein.
As soon as he had gone beyond ear
shot, Vandervyn rose to stretch him
self and call softly through the near
est loOphOle. He then seated himse elf
on his saddle and began to write. A
listener would have had need to be
near at hand to have heard the low
murmur of Redbear's and Oinna's
voices through the loophole above
Vandervyn's head
When Hardy returned from his ex-
animation of the upper works Of the
mine, Vandervyn sealed in his pres
ence the two letters that he had writ
ten. They appeared decidedly thin. in
view of the time that Vandervyn had
spent In his writing and the number
of sheets Of paper gone from the pad.
But Hardy did not observe this. His
attention had been diverted by a large
party Of Indians that had appeared
on the velvety green meadows Of the
valley bottom.
The tribal council had begun to as
semble. This time the chiefs and
headmen did not come alone. From
far camps as well as near, the men
of the tribe were bringing their fami-
lies to see the Longknife chief whom
they had first hated but now believed
to be their friend and father. By
noon their numbers had grown from
scores TO hundreds.
Shortly after the midday meal one
Of the Indian policemen brought word
up to the cabin that the head chief
had arrived and the council was
ready to talk with the agent. Hardy
at once gave command to mount AS
soon as Hardy and Vandervyn started
to ride down the slope, Oinna slipped
out, and held her brothers pony for
him. She then mounted her own, and
rode after him.
At the foot of the slope the riders
came out through a grove of young,
quaking asps into sudden view of the
picturesque and Imposing tribal coun-
