The cowboys laughed. They in

to them both hospitality and a kind
of retribution upon fellow who
could make up as a girl.
Harry's girlishness was apparently
a force of habit, for he stammered

the manager of the troupe interfered
but they shook him off. They were
determined that Harry should swaI-

cry.
At first discounted, the cowboys
looked at one another in cOnsulta-

kid like that? They were as dis
gusted as Benson had been. One
threw the fiery spirit in his face.

floor between his feet. The boy
sprang five feet into the air. But he
came down again and did not dance. !
Instead, he planted himself defiant

fists.

kndier Of the crowd.
But another ran upon him and |
struck the boy a vicious blow on the |

was in an uproar. The drunken cow

Benson spurred his horse, which
