be done was for the white chiefs at
Washington to agree on the price 20
be paid for the mineral land and for
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-
ceive no more issue goods. Chief Van
and plymouth Dupont) had tried to
get Nogen to give trade goods to the
young men and women who had dug
holes. But Nagen would not allow it.
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 it 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 Ti-owa-konza readily
agreed to send out runners in the
morning to call q council ut the mine
the day after. Hardy, in turn, prom

her experience in the camp. She told

and all his family and band had been
very kind to her and had been hOspit-
able. though not so kind, to her broth
err.
But when Hardy casually inquired
whether Redbear had left the camp at
the same time as Vardervyn, 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.

only slight wound and the old chief
now knows that I am friend Of the

us here tomorrow"
"A council-hereY queried Wander
| vyn.
"Why not?' demanded Hardy, lx-
ing him with his keen glance. "Could
there be O more suitable place for q
tribal council than at the mine which
has been the source Of all the recent
trouble on this reservation"
"Nom dun chienl" muttered Du-
pont. "What's that breed girl gone
and blabbed?"
"Nothing," rejoined Hardy. "She
has done no more than interpret be-
tween the head chief and myself. I
have learned all about Nogen's dishon-
esty and his harshness to the tribe.
It is we'll that you and Mr.. Vandervyn
tried to induce him to be more just,
else I should order you both off the
reservation for lying to me-"
Lying? What d'yOu mean by thatT
clustered Dupont.
''The word is explicit" said Hardy.
"Mr. Vandervyn, take your hand from
your holster. Miss Dupont, I regret
the necessity Of making this reprimand
in your presence"
The girls eyes were ablaze with in
dignant anger. Regret Is mild ex-
cuse for insulting my father, sir!"

His Duty.

At dawn Hardy was reused by IT.
owa-konza with greeting as friendly
as it was dignified, though Hardy had
expression. Oinna was already out
side, helping with breakfast. While
she served her grandfather and the
guest, Hardy suggested thai she go
with him to the mine, where they prob
ably would find Marie and the rest Of
the party. Reluctant Us was Ti-owa-
konza to part with his half-white
granddaughter, he ordered her pony
brought In and saddled. When she ex-
planned to Hardy that the mine was
only mile away across the mountain,
he declined the offer of saddieless
mount, took ceremonious leave of the
old chief and set out up the mountain
side with the girl and a young Indian
guide.
Hardy noted the bearings and dis
tances Of all prominent points around
him with the eye Of one well trained in
the art of topography. A quarter
hour brought the little party to the
top Of the low mountain. Before them
the far side of the mountain pitched
down a steep and rocky incline into a
narrow valley. The silent Indian guide
pointed to a terrace midway down the
descent. From amidst the pines was
rising a cloud of blue-black smoke.
Soon Oinna pointed out cabin
among the pines. They were within

Dupont came out Of hole in the cliff
end Of spur-rldge near the cabin, and
stood staring at the newcomers In un-
disguised establishment. Hardy
swerved and FASTENED toward them,
his eyes bright and cold. The two
men glanced ut one another and ad-
vanced to meet him halfway.
Dupont was the first to speak: by

"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 go
ahead and guard Marie"

around to flank the assassin"
Vandervyn drew himself up stiffly.
"You have my word, sir, that heard
nothing Of that"
"In common decency, you might
have returned to see what had become
of me-" returned Hardy.
Dupont fastened to interpose: "Mr.
Van got the idea you meant us to rush
Marie through here to the mine. where
she'd be safe. So we lit out fast as
we could. The piece found your
mare, but lost your trail up in the
rocks. First thing this morning we
sent the whole bunch back to trail

The honest bluffness of Dupont's
tone and his straightforward statement
compelled belief. Hardy Nodded.

CHAPTER @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 so certain Of the
friendliness of the Indians toward her
the other day." remarked Hardy.
Dupont scratched his head. swell,
no, wasn't, Cap; that's no lie. That
there, though, was different. 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 suftl-
.cient. You say this mine is centrally
located with relation to the various
camps. We will 60 to it first and en-
deavor to get the tribe to meet us there
in council"
! 'At the mine?" 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
Ill feeling that, according to Dupont,
BODIED ill for the new agents recep-
ton in the larger camps. Hardy set
his jaw, and ordered the party to start
on into the mountains.
J 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
dams. Late afternoon found them far
in among the mountains, with snowy
peaks on every side. Yet they were
still long ten miles by trail from
their destination. Upon learning from
Dupont that there was no desirable
camp-site nearer than the mine, Hardy
asked his companion to ride forward
and urge all to a faster pace.
The rest of the party had rounded a
heap of rock that lowered up like
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 foot of the steepest
part of the climb. Considerable of the
fact that his tall mount was at dis
advantage in such a situation as COM
pared with the lower-set ponies, Hardy
did not urge the mare to carry him up
the ascent.
He paused moment, waiting to see
II she would make the attempt volun-
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 rifle had yet to
reach Hardy's ear when he peered over
the mares withers in search Of the

turned a dubious glance on Oinna,

in Vandervyn. "You remember, Char

"Charlie?" gasped Oinna. "You say

"No-buck up," brusquely replied
Vandervyn. HE was only nipped
through the arm. He will be all right
in a few days."
Gail right? O-o-oh, thank you!
sighed the girl.
In the stress Of the moment she for.
got that they were not alone. She held
out her arms to him and looked uY
into his face, her soft eyes beamipt
with love and alteration.
He frowned, and his voice grated
with harshness: Don't be a fool! He's
in the cabin. Miss Dupont is taking
care Of him. Go and thank her, not
me-"
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 chlvasS

stopped short and raised his hat.
Marie had come out Of the cabin,
and was fastening forward to greet
him, her beautiful face radiant.
"Captain!" she called. you're here

"Thanks to Miss Redbear," replied
Hardy.
