band, but Kahtoo did, and he babe
Erskine go. Erskine rose and went
TO the white woman's .tent. She
sat just inside the opening, with
blanket across the lower half of her
face. She piled MIN with ques-
tions, and listened eagerly to
his every word, and drew from him
every detail of his life as far back
as he could remember.
Poor soul, it was the first oppor-
tunity for many years that she had
to talk with any white person who
had been in the Eastern world, and
freely and frankly he held nothing
back.
When in turn he questioned her,
she told little, and his own native
delicacy made him understand. She,
too, had been captured with a son
who would have been about Frs
kine's age, but her boy and her
husband had been killed She had
been made slave and-now the
husband had been killed She had
drawn the blanket across her eyes
after the birth of her daughter she
felt SHE could never go back to her
own people.
She loved her daughter; she would
not subject her or herself to humili-
alton among the whites, and, any
how, there was no one to whom
she could go. Her concern was with
her daughter--what would become
of her? Many young brave, be-
! sides Black Wolf, had put his heart
at her feet, but she would
Rave none of them. And, so Err
skine was the heaven-sent answer to
the mothers prayers-that was the
thought behind her mournful eyes.
All the while the girl had cruoched
near, looking at Erskine with dog
like eyes, and when he rose to go
the woman dropped the blanket
from her face and got to her feet.
Styly she litter her hands, took his
face between them, bent close, and
studied it searchingly.
What is your name?"
| 'Erskine Dale"
| Without a word she turned back
into her tent.
| At dusk Erskine stood by the riv-
er's hrim, with his eyes lifted to a
rising moon and his thoughts with
barbara. Behind him he heard a
Rustic and turning, he saw the girl,
lher breast throbbing and her ewes
burning with a 18th HE had never
seen before.
BLACK Wolf will kill YOU" she
whispered. BLACK Wolf wants
Early Morn and he knows that Early
Morn wants White Arrow"

| Erskine put both hands on her
shoulders and looked down into her
eyes. She .trembled, and when his
arms went about her she surged
closer to him and the touch of hei
warm. supple body went through
him like fire. And then with a tri.
umphant smile she sprang back.
Black Wolf will see," she whis.
pered and fled. Erskine sank to the
ground with his head in his hands

uelSHLS MS SOUL Hdu never uEednleu,
XVII
With the head of Clark's column of
stalwart backwoodsmen went Dave
Yandell and Erskine Dale.
During the months Kasilaskie fell,
then Vincennes passed into the
hands of the Americans and there
came one morning when Erskine
went forth at dawn, and his COM
ing into THE Shawnee camp was like
the coming of the king. Early Morn
greeted him with glowing eyes. his
foster-mother brought him food,
looking proudly upon him, and old
kahtoo harangucd his braves
around the council pole.
MY son spoke words of truth, )"
he proclaimed generously. "He
warned US against the king over the
waters and told US to make friends
with the Americans. My son is the
true prophet. Bring out the false
one and Crooked Lightning and
Black Wolf, whose life my son
save though the two were enemies.
My son scall do with them as he
pleases."
Many young braves sprang will
lingiy forward and the three we're
hailed before Erskine.
Erskine rose and fixed his eyes
sternly on the covering prophet:
HE shall go forth from the VIII
lage and shall never return. He
is false prophet and he must
go" He turned to Crooked Light
ming:
Crooked Lightning shall gd or
stay, as he pleases. Black Wolf
shall stay, for the tribe will need
him as hunter and a warrior
against the Engiihs foes OF TEN Long
Knives"
The braves grunted approval.
Black Wolf and Crooked Lightning
averted their faces and the pl O.
phet shambled uneasily away.
Again old Kahtoo proclaimed
generously, st is wellm and went
back to his tent. There he sank
| YEARLY on buffalo-skin and plead
with the boy to stay with them as
chief IN his stead. He was very old,
and now that peace was made he
was willing to die. If Erskine would
but give his promise, he would never
rise again form where he lay.
Erskine shook his head and the
odl man sorrowfully turned his face.
And yet Erskine fingered on and
on at the village.
Of the white woman he had
learned little other than that she
had been brought from another tribe
and adopted by old Kahtoo; but it
was plain that since the threatened
burning Of her she had been. held
in high respect by the whole tribe.
He had never talked with her,
but he never moved about the camp
that he did not feel her eyes upon
him. And Early Morns big soft
eyes, too, never seemed to leave him.
She brought him food, she sat at
the door of his tent, she followed
him about the village and bore her.
self openly as his slave.
At last old Kafltoo, who would
not give up his great hope, plead
with him to marry her, and while he
was talking the girl stood at the
door Of the tent and interrupted
them Her mothers eyes were grow
ing dim, SHE said, Her mother want
ed to talk with White Arrow and
look upon his face before her sight
should altogether pass.
Nor could Erskine know that the
white woman wanted to look into
the eyes of the man she hoped
would become her daughters hus-

TRENTON. n. j. Feb G.-Robert n
Daughcrty, president Of the New Jer-
s~y Boxing Commission, advocated
amendment of the present boxing laws
to permit fifteen round championship
bouts for q decision before the AZ
sembly Judiciary Committee at the
Legislative hearing to-day on the
Evans boxing bill He urged also that
he bill be amended to allow maxi
mum charge Of 325 instead Of $l5 for
seats and opposed the provision that
boying referees and officials must be
residents OF New Jersey for at least
three years.
In response to question by As
scnbylnan Joseph A. Corio. Of At
lantic City, he confessed he did not
know the difference between box
ing exhibition and a prize eight" He
asserted that in his opinion $50 was
not too much for a seat at the Car
penticrDempsey fight last sumne-.
paid tho participants entirely too
large.
Former Assem- Lyman Hurley, author
Of the present professional boxing
bill, called the committees attention
to the fact that the state has received
revenue of 1906 900 from boxing since
1918, when the present law was
passed.
This gave opponents Of boxing q
chance 20 take fling at the Dempsey
Carpenter bout last July and Incl

effort to repeal the present statute.
