Morgan, Woeful Of Face, but
faint smile breaking across his stole
face he entered the kitchen to con-
front Bridget.
"Young chief and young squaw-
they kiss each other in the mill and
they get married bimeby, mebbyso," }"
he announced. The rolling pin dropped
from the big Irish woman's foury
hands and she held them aloft ecstati-
cally.
'sGlory be. 'Tis the fondest wish Of
me heart" she cried, and careless
of her whitened fingers seized the
astonished Rainface about his shoul-
ders and broke into a wild Irish Jig
as she dragged him around the room.
Indignantly breaking away from her
he backed to the doorway from which
he viewed her with great disgust.
"You damn fool woman" he an
nounced. The next instant he was
speeding UP the trail for dear life with
a frying pan gathering at his heels.
The next morning the Spider har-
Messing up his light blackboard in the
early light, took his departure osten-
sibly for the settlement dozen miles
away. Once out of sight of the cabin,
however, he swung sharply at right
angles, and concealing his rig in a
small ravine choked with powders and
small trees, sat down to await the
coming of his confederate. Some fif-
teen minutes later Morgan appeared
upon the scene, bringing with him a
bundle which he deposited upon the
ground, then addressed the other.
"When throw the stick am whit
Ting past the corner of the house,
you act. Wait for that signal. Do you
hear"
s'Think can't understand English?'
growled Bellas. "Do your part and
I'll do mine." Morgan, strIding away,
was followed by the eyes Of the Spider.
Returning to the cabin Morgan ap-
preached the living room door. Rain
face was upon the porch, putting the
finishing touches to the door upon
which he had been working the day
before. As finished, the vestibule was
about five feet square, with glazed
windows on two sides and the storm
door on the third. Morgan, as he en-
tered through it, observed that one
entering or leaving the vestibule would
not be visible from the living room
until he was we'll in front Of the living
room door. Passing into the house he
greeted Ethel and Davis cheerily, and
the three sat down to breakfast. Fin
ishfng this, Morgan turned to the
other man.
"Suppose we have another look at
those papers, Davis. would like to
study them q Bit" With nod Of
assent John arose and took the articles
from a desk and handed them to the
other man, who still slipping his coffee
read them over slowly. Having salts
fed himself as to certain points, he
arose.
: II am going to see if can identify
a certain point" he announced as he
took down a pair of field glasses from
the wall. Without further explanation
he went outside, calling the attention
of Rainface to certain things still re-
naming to be done to the vestibule,
and the Indian picking up his tools,
resumed his work. Picking up piece
of wood that had been discarded by
Kainface, Morgan drew his knife and
carelessly began to whittle it, his head
bent and to all appearances deep in
thought.
We will now return to the Spider.
No soon had Morgan disappeared
than Bellas opening the bundle which
his confederate had dropped upon the
ground beside him, drew forth lariat,
a fur coat and cap, winding the former
about his waist and donning the latter
two garments. Masking his face with
handkerchief he went creeping
stealthily away, approaching the house
