The illustration makes this clearer
than telling about it. The reason
for using the method shown, how
ever. is that it gives so much greater
speed and it gives more "footsure-

backward after fy ball is clumsy
way of getting about for the ordi-

White Fang had practically ceased
struggling. Now and again he resist
ed SpaSmodically and to no purpose
He could get little air. and that little
grew less and less under the merci-
less grip that ever tightened In spite
of his armor of fur, the great vein
of his throat would have long since
been torn open had not the first grip
of the bulldog been so low down as
to be practically en- the chest. 1t had
taken Cherokee Il long time to shift
that grip upward, and this had also
tended further to clog his jaws with
fur and skin fold.
In the meantime the abysmal brute
in Beauty Smith had been rising up
into his brain and mastering the small
bit of sanity that he possessed at
best. When he saw White Fang's
eyes beginning to glaze, he knew be-
NOnd doubt that the fight was lost.
Then he broke loose. He Sprang upon
White Fang and began savagely to
Kick him. There were Kisses from
the crowd and cries of protest, but
that was all. While this went on, and
Beauty Smith continued to kick White
Fang, there was "A Commotion in the
crowd. The tall young newcomer was
forcing his way through. shouldering
men right and left without ceremony

in the act OF delivering another kick.
All his weight was on one foot. and
he was in Il state of unstable equilib-

He was in rage himself-a sane
rage. His gray eyes seemed metallic
and steeI-like they flashed upon
the crowd. Beauty Smith regained
his feet and came toward him, sniff
fling and cowardly. The newcomer
did not understand. He did not know
how abject Il coward the other was
and thought he was coming back in
tent on fighting. So, with "A You
beast" he smashed Beauty Smith
over backward with a second blow
in the face. Beauty Smith decided
that the snow was the safest place
for him and lay where he had fallen.

newcomer called to the dog -musher,
who had followed him into the ring.
Both men bent over the dogs Matt

pull when Cherokce'S jaws should be

deavored to accomplish by clutching
the bulldogs jaws in his hands and
trying to spread them. 1t was vain

IT'S hopeless" Weedon Scott con-

stared at the dog -musher, who re.
sponded with "a shrug that was
equally hopeless.
Together they looked at White

chain. bristling. snarling, ferocious,
straining to get at the sled dogs.
Having received sundry lessons from
Matt. said lessons being impaired by
means of Il club, the sled dogs had
learned 10 leave White Fang alone;
ana even then they were lying down
at a distance, apparently oblivious
of his existence.
It's a wolf and there's no tanning

"Oh. 1 don't know about that"
Matt objected. Might be lot of

The dog musher paused and nod

You're right, Matt. He was a sled

him
An there's not much reason against

What die Think" Scott queried
eagerly Then the hope died down
as he added, shaking his head, We've
had him two weeks now, and if any
thing, he's wilder than ever at the

Yes Matt went on. Il know

You try il. then"
The dog-musher secured club and
went over to the chained animal
White Fang watched the club after
the manner of Gagged lion watching
the whip of its trainer.

Matt said. That's good sign. He's

AS the mans hand approached his

ana crouched down. But while H.
eyed the approaching hand, he at the
same time contriVed to keep track of
the club in the other hand, suspended
threateningly above him. Matt un-
snapped the chain from the collar
and stepped back
White Fang could scarcely realize
that he was free. Many months had
gone by since he passed into the pos
session ST Beauty Smith, and in all
that period he had never known

times he had been loosed to fight with

fights he had always been impris-

DISMISS INDICTMENTS
AGAINST WATERWAYS

Twelve indictments against former
officials of the First National bank,
of Charleston, which closed in 1921,
carrying with it three affiliated banks
were dismissed in federal court, in
Spokane, when Judge Stanley Webster
sustained demurrers offered by the at
torneys for the bankers.
Charges of conspiracy are still pen
ding, decision as to them having been
taken under advisement- The bank
ers named in the indictments are Q. f.
Waterman. G. H Waterman, w. A.
Waterman and A. e. Baulch, all OF
Charleston.
The affiliated banks which closed
following the Charleston bank we're
the State Bank of Kamiah, the FL
delity State bank, Orofino, and the
State Bank of Peck.
The district attorneys office an
nounced that the statute of limitations
would prevent further action against
the bankers.
Failure to show, in the indictments
that the bank was a member OF the
federal reserve system, was the basis
of the dismissal.
