steep grade. in spite of continual curv- ing. The sure-footed horses moved faster than the cattle, and before the outfit reached the level of the valley the three riders had closed in on the Indian drivers. Shelby knew them at once as young Sioux warriors, and was again able to distinguish plainly the brand on the flank of the steers bring ing up the rear of the herd. They were unquestionably his own stock, and, in spite of his rage, he could not be entirely indifferent to the grim hu- nor of the situation-he was being guided into Wolves hole by the very men who had robbed him.
 Yet his thoughts did not dwell upon this so much just then, as on the mad chance he had assumed in this adven- ture. What could he accomplish? What hope was there that he would ever emerge again alive? He was going forward blindiy, led by fate, with not even plan of guidance. He must work alone, in the midst of enemies, desperate men to whom human life was valueless, and where any incau- tious word or act would instantly ex- pose him to discovery. In spite of the fact that he was believed dead, Macklin would recognize him at glance, and the very claim that he was friend of Hanley's exposed him to discovery. In some way he must avoid them both, and yet no plan presented itself to promise escape. He could only drift helplessly, becoming more Respondent of success with every step of advance.
 It was already dusk when they at tained the level of the valley, and the overshadowing bluffs rose high on either hand, leaving them plodding through the gloom. Yet even here they had not attained the full depression of the Hole, which required another sharp descent along the border of the

curiously about. He dismounted and, after few moments scrutiny of the ground, decided that he was still safe ahead. There were two traces suffi- ciently defined to indicate the passage within a few hours of both Macklin's party, and the two others. Neither outfit had made any effort at conceal ment, but Shelby, fearing the latter might be camped for breakfast, left his horse to crop on the short grass, while he advanced on foot. The trail was obscure, but not difficult to fol- low when once discovered. Hanley and his companion had not ventured the passage until dawn, the marks of their horses hoofs so fresh as to con- vince their trailer they were scarcely beyond the sound of his voice. He even found where they had dismount- ed, waiting for daylight, the ground filtered with the ends of burnt ciga- rettes.
 Shelby loitered an hour before ven turing to follow. There was no other
 
 meal, and permitted the buckskin to browse along the bank of the stream, well concealed by fringe of willows. Then, both horse and man refreshed, he went forward on foot, leading the animal, and began the upward climb. In places it was not unlike a cave,l and Shelby had no idea how far he J T out from the gloom into the sunlight of the summit, with a clear view across the level plateau.
 Shelby stopped, holding the horse back below the summit and gazed anx- iously about. The soil left no trail and, with the naked eye, Shelby was unable to distinguish a sign of life within the radius of vision. Every thing had the appearance of death the death of ages. He stood upright and swept the circle with his field glasses. He was barely in time; for far off there to the left, scarcely dis cernible even then against the black, overhanging ridges of rock, he made out two slowly moving objects. They were not distinct, he could not have sworn what they were, but there was no doubt in his mind as to their iden- tity. He studied them eagerly until they disappeared down a coulee, and then carefully marked the course, his point of guidance a high pinnacle of rock standing out against the sky.
 He was an hour reaching this ob- jective, but once there he found the trail plainly traced along the edge of the bank. It led in and out amid the intrieacies of the hills, taking, of nee

essity, so winding a course as to give Shelby no view ahead and soon con- fused him in point of direction. He could only move forward cautiously, fearful lest they might have halted for some purpose, and watchful of every trace of their passage, as other ravines were constantly uniting with this through which he was blindly feeling his way. He came to sand and lost all signs of the trail instantly, search ing for 1t in vain for nearly an hour before confessing himself at fault. Then, leaving the horse below, he climbed the nearest hill for view of his surroundings.
 The sun gave him the proper direc- tions, but all about stretched the same dreary, bare ridges of rock, offering no guidance. There was no life visi- ble anywhere and although he waited for some time, sweeping his glasses back and forth, he gained no glimpse of the two he endeavored to follow. They had vanished as though swal- lowed up by the earth. The sun was already in the west and desperately he

 Good; then I have met a friend. We were there, back in those hills, when my girth broke-see, where I have fixed it. I fell behind and they rode on. I thought to follow easily, but you must know those hills, the trail was lost perhaps I took a wrong turn for suddenly I found myself on this plain"
 The Mexican sat motioniess, his eyes as suspicious as ever, but his fingers no longer gripped on the re- volyer. The last of the cattle had dis appeared down the coulee and the red bearded white man was riding toward them across the alkali. Neither changed position until he came up, a lump of a fellow, with staring eyes and complexion the color of parch- ment.
 What the h-l is all this, Juan?' he questioned roughly. "Who is the fellow?"

Synopsis.-Tom Shelby, a rancher, rides into the frontier town of Ponca, looking for good time after a long spell of hard work and loneliness on the ranch. In- stead, he runs into a funeral-that of Dad Calkins, a retired army man of whom little is known. A girl, still in her teens, survives Calktns. Mccarthy, a saloon keep CT and Ponca's leading citizen, de- cides that the girl, now alone in the world, should marry. She agrees to pick out a husband from the score of men lined up in her home. To his consternation, she se- lects Shelby, who had gone along merely as spectator. He declines the honor. Indignant, the girl dis misses the assemblage. Shelby runs into two of the rejected suit OTIS, and in a fight worsts them both. fingered at their remarks, he returns to the girl, determined to marry her, if she will have him. After his explanation she agrees to marry him. The wedding takes place and the couple set out for Shelby's ranch. With them is Kid" Macklin, whom Shelby has hired as a helper. On the way the girl tells her husband her name is Olga Carlyn, and also tells him something of the peculiar circum- stances of her life. Upon arrival at the ranch Shelby is struck down from behind and left for dead. He recovers consciousness to find that Macklin and his wife have gone. He starts in pursuit He learns his wife is an heiress, that her ab- duction has been carefully planned and that she has been taken to Wolves Hole, a stronghold of ban dits and bad Indians.

''I sec" his eyes wandered. Sounds kinder fishy, young feller, but ain't in no shape to tell. I reckon Matt Hanley kin straighten it out, an if he is down thar, the best thing we kin do is 10 take yer long, If yer lyin' yell be d--n sorry fore yer get out ag'in. I'll tell yer that to begin with, but if yer game to ride along, we'll see yer i get thar all right. Let's hit her up, Juan; them Injuns will need us fore long. Come on stranger" 1 He wheeled his horse and rode off on sharp trot and the Mexican fol- 1 lowed. Neither man so much as glanced back toward Shelby, seeming ly indifferent as to what he chose to l do. Yet he knew the customs of the West and that if he failed them now no future falsehood would ever regain 1 their confidence He swung into the saddle and rode silently forward be- hind Juan. The cattle were still out of sight ahead, but they could hear the calls of the drivers. Shelby pressed his bronco up closer to the Mexican, who had lit a cigarette.
 ''Is it far, Juan?" he asked.
 "Nom de Dios I heard you not. To the Hole you mean? Not far but rough, senor; yet there is no other way to get cattle in"
 ",The man with you who is hep
 Juan emitted cloud of blue smoke in the air, smiling pleasantly.
 "Senor Lasd."
 "Laudp in undisguised astonish- ment. "What Laud? Not Indian Joe'?"
 "Si, senor; they cali heem that" confidently. "He yerra bad man. You know heem, what?''
 Shelby gripped himself tightly.
 i've heard of him, that's all He's a Sioux squawman, but never knew what he looked like before"
 His pony, no longer urged, fell back, trailing at the rear of the others. l Juan rode on unconscious and indif- ferent, blowing spirals of smoke into the air, and humming the strain of some Spanish melody, but Shelby was staring beyond him at the red-bearded white man souched down in his sad dle. So that fellow was "Indian Joe" Laud As never before he realized to the full the danger into which he advanced.
 'Indian Joe" Laud When hadRt he heard of him? For years certainly, ever since he had been in this north country, yet in appearance the fellow 1 af ai tph hot ha soIyc II had imagined that desperado to be. Laud was gross, bearded, dirty, coarse featured to all appearances a mere barroom tough. yet trO man oa the frontier had worse record or was more dreaded and despised Why was he here stealing cattle on the very verge of Indian war? True, he was not a Sioux in blood, yet 1t was well known that he had been adopted into the tribe and never failed to have a hand in their deviltry. Army officers claimed he possessed more influence over them for evil than any chief. and Shelby had heard him mentioned with Sitting Bull as leaders in the ghost dance. If true, then he must know how far to venture, and just when to draw aside so as to save himself. That must be tito him war meant only an opportunity to plunder. The final re- suit was clearly Indian defeat; he would keep out, but in the meanwhile profit all he could.
