Silence That Came Alive.

The Pearlhunter was not a man to
be long held down. His day was gone
but the night remained.
The sheriff was to bring his supper
to him. The fact suddenly became
significant Maybe he'd come inside.
Maybe he'd come alone.

tween the two cells caught his eye No
poker: no lid. The door was fastened

hundred hands still itching to get at
him. They beat lbs face: his body
wherever fist or a club could reach
him. A stick OF stove wood in the
hands of lanky woodchopper laid
open an ugly cash across his head.
Half-dazed, he was trying to wink
the blood and mist out of his eyes

skirts of the crowd, and the stocky
form of the old Boss was seen fight

missed the Pearlhunter, and come on
TO the village. He fought well. and
opened narrow swath. halfway
through the circle to his friend. But
Just there somebody struck him above
the ear with the fiat of barrel stave.
The ripple subsidized; the swath closed.
The Pearlhunter's last friend was
down and out.
The rope was flung over a limb.
Half hundred hands. some of them
women's hands. stretched up ready to
pull. Half hundred hands did pull.
The rope tightened-slowly. A hush
fell on the mob. a hush so deep that
the creak of the tightening rope could
be distinctly heard. That last final
scene. the last stroke that stops life
lit is a solemn moment; even to a
mob. The Pearlhunter was lifted !;
the last light tips of his toes left the
grass; flames ran up and down his
spine; the world turned black.
There came sudden dash of hoofs,
and man rode straight at the mob.
1t takes hardy person to Withstand
the charge of a horse. The crowd
parted. The horseman reached the
dangling man. and with one slash of
a huge iackknife, cut the rope.
The stroke came barely in time.
The Pearlhunter, only saved from
crumpling down to the grass by the
arm of the horseman, dropped limp
and gasping against the side Of the
horse. Slowly the world quit Keeling
the light came back; he raised his
eyes; caught the glitter of sheriff's
star upon the vest of his rescuer.
1t is marvellous how one brave man.
with the law behind him, can awe a
mob.
"Who is this man?' yelled the
sheriff.
A man, whose mouth had been
mashed by butt of the Pearlhunter's
head, clawed the red mask up from
the ground, trampled and soiled, but
still unmistakable. and held it high.
The sheriff started; glared hard at
the Pearlhunter.
"An so it's you they've roped!" he
growled. Damned If I hain't no.

A smart ran through the mob. They
surged forward. The sheriff drew his
revolver again, and cursed them back.

stormed, "hes entitled to trial I'M
der the law: and trial he'll git"
The moo muttered ominously but
fell back, leaving some little space
about the horse. The Pearlhunter
was the tallest man there. His height
enabled him to see with tolerable
clearness to the outskirts of the
crowd. He swept his eyes over the
heads of the others like man looking
for something he fully expected to
