when "A Man Bites A
Dog, That 5 News
Here's News!

PITTSBURGH, Pa, July a..
There are various ways of break
ing into the news, but Frank
Kigger, aged fifty-five, took no
chances Of picking the wrong
method. He adopted the one i'm
mortalized Nby the late Charles
"A. Dana, who said: IF dog
bites a man, that's not news.
But lisa man bites a dog, that's
news" Kigger bit hisrdOg.
Kigger,> the police say, was a
bit balmy from rnoonshine when
he proceeded with much care as
to detail to give the newspapers
something which the foremost
journalist of his. time had de-
clared. worthy Of space on the
printed page. ~.
First, he dropped down on all
fours and began to emit banks
and groWls that elected the mild
interest of Buzz, his brindle
bulldog. When Kigger lunged
forward at the same time that
he wool -woofed, Buzz looked an
noyed. But when Kigger hAId
Buzz firmly while he closed his
teeth hard on mouthful of the
dogs back, Buzz lost patience
and showed what real bite was
like, sinking his own teeth deep
in the flesh Of Kigger's head
and hands.

"You know that girl who came last
night?"
me not know um," the squaw
grunted, as she set the kettle on the
stove.
Don't know what time she's leav-
ing, l suppose?"
Girl um gone. Gone at four
O'clock" grunted the squaw.
Lee whistled softly. That was her
horse that he had heard, then. She
was losing no time, whatever her busi-
ness and destination might be. Lee
fidgeted while the coffee came to the
boil, and had just gulped down a cup
full and taken few bites at the bread
and butter which the woman gave him
when the landlord came sleepily in,
and Lee took the opportunity of set
tling his bill.
well, you're shore off early"
grumbled the fat proprietor. "Say,
she beat you to it. though
"Who Is she?" Lee inquired
Blamed eff 1 know. Nobody here
abouts seems to know her. But
shucks, Little Falls amt more'n three
or four year old Guess she's the gal
school or college. Or she'll be gOin'
up to the Moravian mission, like as
not Yes, sir, that shore must be it.
She wouldn't be goin' to any Of them

That's Railways joint, isn't it?'

came into his eyes. ~ guess we amt
botherin' our heads none about that
Free Trader, outfit since they're there
to stay. No, sir, 1t don't do to know
too much about Captain Carcajou,
now that the police Is In with him."
Lee almost betrayed himself as he
struggled not to display his indigna-
ton. "You mean the r. c. NJ. P.'s
been bought by that scum in Mont
real?" he demanded.
That's what they're sayin' in these
here parts. See here, stranger, eff that
amt so, why don't they git after that
Captain Carcajou as they calls him?
You heerd what he did to that camp
of Indians last summer? Shore Well,
l amt sayin' nothin' and l amt speak

only sayin' what other folks say. Why,
there's two Of Railways gang in this

"Shore l do" The landlord wmked
at him. "Hooch-runners from Siston

"What're they doing here?" asked
Lee.
Il guess they amt here fer no good.

the sand to stand up to 'em last night,

CHAPTER iii
An Unwelcome Guardian

Lee rode off hot with indignation
at the landlords innuendo about the
R. G. M. P. But this soon yielded to
anxiety about the girl. The disclosure
that the two men were from SistOn
lake and the recollection of the con-
versation he had overheard convinced
him that they were planning to kid
nap and convey her there.
Such a plan would seem incOnceiv-
able but Lee knew that the gang, be-
lieving their organization firmly en-
trenched in power, would stop at very
little Other things equally sinister
had been done by them.
However, Lee began to breathe
more freely when he had left the
squalid little town behind him. He
walked or trotted his horse till noon,
gradually ascending toward the out
skirts of the range through a fairly
open country.
The SHOWS might hold off for two or
three weeks yet, and Lee felt confident
that we'll within that period he would
be able to bring back Pelly, if the lat
ter were in the region, unless he took
alarm, in which event Of course Lee
would have to bring his horse back to
Little Falls and prepare for long
winters chase The new dominion
force carries on the tradition of the old
Northwest; 1t does not return with
out its man.
Siston lake was admirably adapted
for the needs of the Free Traders. 1t
was at the extreme northern limits Of
the range, or little beyond, and the
head Of lake and river system by
which communication could be had by
water north to Fort Churchill or York
Factory or west as far as Lake Atha-
basca
The York boat, laden to the gunwale
with supplies of liquor, could push
anywhere along the thousands of lakes
and streams, acting as mother boat in
turn to the canoe, with one or more
cases. And over all this vast, Hide
fined district the hooch-runner had
almost unlimited sway, proving
serious rival to the legitimate trading
interests since he carried his poison

She Looked Very Trim and Business
like With Her Sleeves Rolled UP to
Her Elbows and Her Air of Being

roundings.
like with her sleeves rolled up to her
elbows and her air of being completely
at home in these surroundings.
AS Lee jumped from his horse she
started, then looked at him with an
expression of calm which was an at
tempt to conceal a very obvious trepi-
dation.
Good evening"" he called. "I'm
travelling your way, and saw your
camp fire, so took the liberty of join
ing you, if there's no objection"
She stared hard at him as If his ad-
vent were some long expected blow
that had suddenly fallen. For a few
moments she seemed under the in
fiuence of an all-possessing fear. Then
mastering it, she answered with the
same affectatiOn of indifference:
"YOu can camp where you like, of
course. The range is free for all"
Lee, little staggered at the unwil-
lingness of this invitation, decided
that it would be better for the present
not to alarm her with any eXplana
tions and proceeded to pitch his tent
near hers While he was unloading his
pack and watering his horse, the girl
hnI
any attention to him.
Lee, feeling both uncomfortable and
foolish, was beginning to wish he had
waited, when a horse neighed close at
hand his horse and the girls
answered, and a minute later Pierre
Cauchon and his companion Shorty
rode into view through the gathering
darkness.
Pierre's behavior at the sight Of Lee
was almost ludicrOus. He pulled his
horse up short with an oath, and sat
looking from Lee to the girl in almost
comical surprise. Shorty, dismounting
in a hurried manner, repeated his
companions gestures. For several
moments the light of the camp fire
silhouetted the calm faces Of the girl
and Lee and the vindictive, scowling
ones of the two men.
Then Pierre leaped to the ground.
"By gar, It's de feller dat tell me
'dat'll be ALI, " he shouted. What you
t'ink you're doing here, you d-n four
fiusher"
Maybe the same as you" said Lee,
"Ho, no, dat's good! roared the
breed. "You t'ink we take you in as
pardner. hein?"
Wouldn't go with you. I've got
my own hand to play" Lee answered.
you won't play it here, them bel
lowed Shorty
Oaths poured from his lips. Pack
and vamose" yelled Pierre. The two
advanced on Lee with belligerent ges-
lures.
Lee held up his hand as the fists
threatened him. Didn't / tell you
don't fightY' he drawled deceptively
you don fight? by gar, you're
goin' to fight dis time or gil" yelled
Pierre you 'fraid Of glttin whipped,
eh?"
"That's about the size of it,"
laughed Lee That's why l shoot In

took his pick of the choicest furs.
His trade embraced a viler one. All
along the fringe of white settlement IL
was active. 1t had sprung up like
fungus overnight, during the disorgan-
ization of the police in consequence
of the war and the readjustment. The
gang were steadily embittering the re-
Iations between whites and reds,
which had been amicable almost since
the advent of the first pioneer.
Whichever district the girl was
bound for, it was impossible to mis-
take the course that she would take
initially. In front of Lee lay long
backbone Of mountain, with only
single pass into the interior over a
range of many miles.
Scanning the valley carefully, Lee
saw, about mile beyond the pass,
thin curl of smoke rising into the still
air.
Satisfied that he had the girl in
sight, Lee hesitated for a while, un-
decided whether to ride up to her, or
to camp where he was, keeping look
out for Pierre and Shorty. In the end
he decided that the better course
would be to make himself known, and
accordingly he descended the slope
and followed the trail along the bank
Of the river until he reached the camp.
The girl had already set up her tent,
