"It would have been over the quick

with flare of his old egotism: But

I've spoken to Wakantanka. A man
is never down so long as he can hope.
Crazy Horse thought lot of my meli-
cine. Now look happy; some one is
coming"
+ Three men, bearing kettle Of meat,
entered the lodge. Dinsdale remem-
bered he had eaten nothing since
morning, and despite his serious pre-
dicament he was very hungry. The
kettle gave off savory odor. Two Of
the braves Embossed the thongs so the
prisoners could bring their elbows to
their sides and extend their hands
forward. A bowl and wooden spoon
were given to each. For some min
utes Dinsdale ate as II famished, then
asked:
What Is it?"
wild onions boiled with dog"
II don't think I'm hungry any
more"
"Washte-helol (very good.) If I'd
said elk or deer you'd come for sec
ond helping. Shows what language
does for man."
And Scissors asked the brave to
dish up more of the stew.
Horse doesn't seem so bad, but
dog" muttered Dinsdale.
The kettle was removed and their
arms were tightly pinioned. Scissors
requested that the flap of the tent be
pulled back the full width. This al
lowed them to see what was going on
in front of the lodge. Near the en-
trance two men were making shields
of fnch-thick hide taken from buff
falo bulls neck. The hide was pegged
down on thin layer of clay and was
then covered with burning Goals.
This process hardened it sufficiently
to turn lance point, or round bull
let. 1t was striking incongruity Of
the campaign. bows and arrows and
shields by the side of magazine rifles
and metallic cartridges. Never again
would the plains witness such
mingling of the old and the new.
Little Big Man strolled to the open
ing of the lodge. He was smoking a
beautiful pipe of red sandstone. The
bowl was inlaid with silver and the
long reed stem was artistically dec
GRATED with feathers and quilts. He
offered the pipe to the sky and earth
and to the cardinal points, but spoke
no word to the prisoners.
After waiting for a minute Scissors
asked, when can Two Knives Talk
ing see his friend Crazy Horse?'
Little Big Man smiled cynically and
replied: IF Two Knives Talking is
wakan enough he can unite himself
and go to see his friend"

Nor did Qinsdale rest well that
night. He dreamed Of Lottie Carl be-
ing in the power of Kitty the Schemer,

into a savage. of San Juan being
killed In fight. He was up early
and wondering what could be the mat

that exercise would clear away his
feeling Of depression. He found where

SYNOPSIS.--In the late sum-
mer of 1875, Peter Dinsdale, on
his way to the Black hills to
join the throng of gold-seekers,
makes the acquaintance of the
keeper of Deadwood gambling
house, San Juan Joe. who Is re-
turning to Deadwood. On their
way through Red canyon Dins-
dale and Joe meet young
woman running from party of
Indians. Dinsdale takes her on
his horse and the two men ride
through her pursuers, killing
several. The girl Is Lottie Carl
and she has no relatives. Near
Deadwood they overtake a pros
pector whom Joe halls as old
Iron Pyrites." At Deadwood
City San Juan Joe. popular in the
comps*nity, is given an enthusi-
astic welcome. which is extended
to Diyasdale. Dinsdale tells Joe
of the robbery of a Union Pacific
train at Ogalala, and the gambler
Bnforms the crowd. Joe takes
Dinsdale and Lottie to the house
of a woman of the town, Kitty
the Schemer, Joe's mistress,
where the gambler had intended
to install Lottie. Dinsdale re-
fuses to allow it, taking Lottie
to house where she will be
safeguarded. Dinsdale saves an
apparently half-witted individual,
known as Scissors, from mis-
treatment a the hands of bad
man." Bandy Allen, who vows

ability to cut, with paper and
scissors, remarkable likenesses
of persons, or anything that
strikes his fancy. Dinsdale takes
to him. Iron Pyrites arrives in
town. At midnight meeting of
road-agents plans are made to
rob one of the treasure-coaches.
Dinsdale acquires a reputation as
a reckless spender and an expert
gunman. San Juan Joe. beliey-
ing Dinsdale to be a train-robber,
warns him of the coming of Jim
Omaha" Union Pacific detective.
and advises him to take a pros
pecting trip with Pyrites. Dins-
dale appears reluctant. Dinsdale
kills Allen. He then takes to the
hills with Pyrites. While pros
pecting, Dinsdale plumbers onto
large log cabin. In a cellar
Dinsdale finds the proceeds of
robberies% A man enters the cabin.
Dinsdale knocks him senseless.
He makes his way back to Py-
rites. The two make their way
to Rapid City. In a gambling
place stranger, with bandaged
head, tells Dinsdale his name is
Easy" Telling Pyrites he be-
lieves Easy" is the man he
slugged in the cabin, Dinsdale
sets out with Scissors for Dead
wood. From a hiding place they
see gang of desperadoes pass,
evidently on Dinsdale's trail.

Scissors gaped in mild amazement.
Strangers? Why, you must know
they're coming and going all the time.
Only they don't 60 far because of the
Indians"
Dinsdale puffed his pipe in silence
for a minute, then asked:
Ever you hear anything about a
fellow called Omaha?"
Scissors pursed his lips and screwed
up his whimsical features in an effort
to remember. Then he slowly said:
"Name sounds familiar Maybe it's
because of the city by that name.
Queer name for a man to have"
Dinsdale lapsed into meditation and
did not hear the rambling talk of his
companion, including a lengthy expla-
nation of the various Siouan cults. He
revealed his abstraction when he sud-
denly inquired:
''See anything of the girl brought
out of Red canyon? Lottie Carl is
her name. She's staying with Widow
Colt"
Scissors nodded eagerly.
I've seen her on the street with
Mrs. Colt. She never goes out alone.
That makes me remember something
else-Kitty the Schemer went to the
Colt house. The widow sent her out
flying. They say Kitty was mad
enough to chew up harness. I'd for
gotten all about that"
"So7" gritted Dinsdale. "How much
more have you forgotten?"
81 don't know" was the frank re-
ply. probably a lot. Since I became
wakan I've forgotten lots of foolish
stuff
please don't forget we're going
back to Deadwood City. When do
we strike for the gulch?"
"We're wide of the stage road, and
better So" readily replied Scissors.
"Those men on horseback will string
out and trail along In twos and threes
right into the gulch. Some Of them
will even risk riding into the town
Each one will be watching out for
you. If we follow the middle branch
of this creek to its head Wen be only
a few miles south of Deadwood.
