romantic in aspect, Cimarron Cravat
was that. His head was not large,
like Yancey's, but long and fine, like
Sabra's-a Venable head. His eyes
were Sabra's, too, dark and large, but
they had the ardent look Of Yancey's
gray ones, and he had Yancey's abb
surdly long and curling lashes, like a
beautiful girls.
His speech was strangely adult.
This, perhaps, because Of his close as
ISOLATION with his elders in those first
formative years in Usage. His skin
was bronzed the color of his fathers.
He looked like a little patrician
Spaniard or perhaps .(the Venables
thought privately part Indian. Then,
too, there had been few children of
his age in the towns beginning. Sa-
bra had been, at first, too suspicious
Of such as there were. He would,
probably, have seemed rather un-
pleasant and priggish little boy IL his
voice and manner had not been en-
dowed miraculously with all the charm
and magnetism that his father pos
sessed in such disarming degree.
Even little Donna was not much Of
a success. The baby was an eerie
little elf, as plain as the boy was
handsome. She resembled her grand
mother, Felice venable, without
trace of that redoubtable matron's for
mer beauty. All in all, Sabra found
herself joyously returning to the bar
rem burning country to which, four
years earlier, she had gone In such
dread and terror. She resented her
mothers do-this, do-that. She saw
Felice Venable now, no longer as
power, an authority in all matters of
Importance, but as a sallow old lady
who tottered on heels that were too
high and who, as she. sat talking,
pleated and implicated with tremulous
fingers the many ruffles Of her white
dimity wrapper. The matriarch had
lost her crown. Sabra was matriarch
now of her own little kingdom; and
already she was planning to extend
that realm beyond and beyond its
present confines into who knows what
vaStness of demesne.
She had meant, at the last, to find
occasion to inform her mother and
the minor Venables that it was she
who ironed Yancey's fine white linen
shirts. But she was not a spiteful
woman. And she reflected that this
might be construed as criticism of
her husband.
So, gladly. eagerly, Sabra went back
to the wilds she once had despised-

CHAPTER VII

Before the Katy pulled in at the
Usage station (the railroad actually
had been extended, true to Dixie Lees
prediction, from Wahoo to Usage and
beyond) Sabra's eyes were searching
the glaring wooden platform. Yancey
was not there. The stark red-painted
wooden station sat blistering in the
sun. Yancey simply was not there.
Not only that, the station platform
usually graced by score of vacuous,
faces and limp figures gathered to
witness the exciting event Of the
Katy's daily arrival and departure,
was bare.
Sabra felt sick and weak. Some
thing was wrong. She left her boxes
and bags and parcels on the platform.
Half an hour before their arrival in
Usage she had entrusted the children
to the care of a fellow passenger while
she had gone to the washroom to put
on one of the new dresses made in
Wichita and bearing the style cachet
of Kansas City. She had anticipated
the look in Yancey's gray eyes at sight
of it. She had made the children spot
less and threatened them with dire
things if they sullied their splendor
before their father should see them.
And now he was not there.
With Donna in her arms and Gin
at her heels she peered in at the sta
ton window. Pat Leary was bent over
his telegraph key. A smart tight little
Irishman who had,co to the terri
tory with the railroad section crew
when the Katy was being built. Sta
ton agent now, and studying law at
night.
"AIr. Leary! Mr. Leary! Have you
seen Yancey?" He looked up at her
absently, his hand still on the key,
then wiped his wet forehead with his
forearm protected by the black sateen
sleevelet. ''Ain't you heard?"
''No," whispered Sabra, with stiff
z lips that seemed no part of her. Then,
in a voice rising to a scream, 'No!
No! Mol What? Is he dead?"
The Irishman came over to her then,
as she crouched at the window. "Oh,
no, maam. Yancey's all right. He
amt hurt to speak of. Just nick in
the ARMAND left arm at that"
"Oh, my God"

women of Usage there was everything
still to do. There lay city, a coun-
try, a whole vast territory to be swept
and garnished by an army of sunbon-
nets. Paradoxically enough, she was
trying to implant in the red clay of
Usage the very forms and institutions
that now bored her in Wichita. Yet it
was, perhaps "a very human trait 1t
was illustrated literally by the fact
that she was, on her return, more
thrilled to find that the scrawny elm,
no larger than baby's arm, which
she had planted outside the doorway
in Usage, actually had found some
moisture for its thirsty roots, and was
now feebly vernal, than she had been
at sight of the cool glossy canopy of
cedar, arbor vitae, sweet locust, and
crepe myrtle that shaded the Kansas
garden.
Then the children. The visiting
venables insisted on calling CHM by
his full name-Cimarron Sabra had
heard it so rarely. since the day of his
birth that she now realized, for the
first time, how foolish she had been
to yield to Yancey's whim in the NAM
ing of the boy. Cimarron. Spanish;
wild, or unruly. The boy had made
such an obstreperous entrance into
the world, and Yancey had shouted, in
delight, 'Look at him! See him kick
with his feet and strike out with his
fists! He's wild one. Heb, Cimar-
ron! Peceno Gitano."
Cimarron was almost eight now. If

In year or two ne opened little
store in Usage. 1t was, at first, only
a wooden shack containing two or
three rough pine tables on which his
wares were spread. He was the town
Jew. He was a person apart. Some
times the cowboys deviled him; or the
saloon loungers and professional bad
men. They looked upon him as fair
game. He thought of them as savages.
In the three and a half years of her
residence in Usage Sabra had yielded
hardly an inch. 1t was amazing. 1t
was heroic. She had set herself GER
tain standards, and those she had
maintained in spite Of almost over
whelming opposition. She had been
{ bred on tradition. If she had yielded
at all it was in minor matters and be-
cause to do so was expedient.
Once only in those three years had
she gone back to Wichita. At the
prospect Of the journey she had been
in a fever Of anticipation for days.
She had taken with her CHM and
Donna. She was so proud Of them,
so intent on QUILTING them with a
wardrobe sufficiently splendid to set
off their charms, that she neglected
the matter Of her own costuming and
found herself arriving in Wichita with
a trunk containing the very clothes
with which she had departed from it
almost four years earlier. Prominent
among these was green nuns yelling
with pink ruchings. She had had
little enough use for it in these past
years.
The visit was not success. The
very things she had expected to enjoy
fell, somehow, fiat. She missed the
pace, the exhilarating uncertainty of
the Oklahoma life. The teacup con-
versation Of her girlhood friends
seemed to lack tang and meaning.
Their existence was orderly, calm, ac-
cepted. For herself and the other

CHAPTER vi

Sabra's second child, girl, was born
in June, little more than a year
after their coming to Usage. 1t was
not as dreadful an ordeal there in
those crude surroundings as one
might have thought. She was tended,
during her accouchement, by the best
doctor in the county and certainly
the most picturesque man of medi-
cine in the whole Southwest, DR.. Don
Valiant. Like thousands of others
living in this new country, his past
was his own secret. 1t was known
that he often vanished for days, leay-
ing the sick to get on as best they
could. He would reappear as mex
plicably as he had vanished and his
horse was jaded. 1t was no secret
that he was often called to attend the
bandits when one of their number,
wounded in some outlaw raid, had
taken to their hiding place in the hills
He was tender and deft with Sabra,
though between them he and Yancey
consumed an incredible quantity of
whisky during the racking hours Of
her confinement. At the end he held
up caterwauling morsel of flesh torn
from Sabra's flesh-a thing perfect of
its kind, with an astonishing mop Of
black hair.
"This is Spanish beauty you have
for daughter, Yancey. present to
you Senorita Donna Cravat."
And Donna Cravat she remained.
The town, somewhat scandalized,
thought She had been named after
Doctor Don himself Besides, they
did not consider Donna name at all.
When Sabra Cravat arose from that
bed something in her had erystalized.
Perhaps it was that, for the first time
in year, she had had hours in which
to rest her tired limbs; perhaps the
ordeal itself worked psychic as well
as a physical change in her; it might
have been that she realized she must
cut a new pattern in this Oklahoma
life of theirs. The boy CHM might sur
mount it the girl Donna never. Dur
ing the hours through which she had
lain in her bed in the sitting wooden
shack, mists seemed to have rolled
away from before her eyes. She saw
clearly. She felt light and terribly
capable-so much so that she made
the mistake Of getting up, dizzily DON
ming slippers and wrapper, and tot
tering into the newspaper office where
Yancey was writing an editorial and
shouting choice passages of it into the
inattentive ear Of Jesse Hickey, who
was setting type in the printing shop.

THE STORY

Yancey Cravat, just returned
from the newly opened Indian
territory, relates his experiences
to q large gathering of the Ven
able family. Yancey is married
to Sabra venable; is criminal
lawyer and editor Of the Wichita
Wigwam. When the Run started,
Yancey had raced his pony
against the thoroughbred mount
of girl. The girls horse was
injured and when Yancey stopped
to shoot 1t she grabbed his pony
and got the land Yancey wanted.
Yancey announces he Is going
back to the Oklahoma country
with Sabra and their four-year-
old son, Cimarron. They make
the journey in two covered
wagons. They arrive at Usage,
where Yancey intends to start a
< newspaper. Yancey is determined
to find out who killed Editor Peg
Ter OF the New Day, Preparations
for the publication of the Okla
homa Wigwam are completed.
Yancey consents to conduct di-
vine worship on Sunday. During
the services Yancey announces
he has learned who killed Peg
Ter. He stoops in time to escape
q bullet fired by Yountis. Still
STOPPING, Yancey shoots and kills
Yountis. Then he announces that
Yountis killed Pegler.

tice. Besides, Yancey often was mys-
tifyingly amused at things that seemed
to Sabra quite serious. "Why that's
fine, Sabra. That's finei That's the
spirit!"
"She looks kind of babyish and lone
ly, sitting there by the window sewing
all day. And her husbands so much
older, and a cripple, too, or almost.
noticed he limps quite badly. What's
his trouble?"
'Shot in the leg"
"Oh." She had already learned to
accept this form of injury as matter
of course. II thought I'd ask her to
prepare paper for the third meeting
on Mrs. Browning's Aurora Leigh I
could lend her yours to read up on,
If you don't mind, Just in case she
hasn't got It."
Yancey thought it unlikely.
The paper on Mrs. Browning's "Au-
rora Leigh" never was written by the
pretty Mrs. Evergreen Waltz. Three
days later Sabra, CHANGING to glance
out of her sitting room window, saw
the crippled and middle-aged gambler
passing her house, and in spite of his
infirmity he was walking with great
speed-running almost. In his hand
was piece of white paper-a letter,
Sabra thought. She hoped it was not
bad news. He had looked, she thought,
sort of odd and wild.
Evergreen Waltz, after weeks Of tire
less waiting and watching, had at last
intercepted a letter from his young
wife's lover. AS he now came painting
up the street the girl sat at the win
dow, sewing. The single shot went
just through the center of the wide
white space between her great baby
ish blue eyes.
"Why didn't you tell me that when
she married him she was girl out of
a-out of a-house~ Sabra demanded,
between horror and wrath.
II thought you knew. Women are
supposed to have intuition, or what
ever they call it, aren't they?"

In Russia music has always been
closely connected with the lives of the
people. From the time of birth
through all the events Of life until
death claims them, they move to a
musical accompaniment. The return
of spring is celebrated by a sort of
choral dance, termed the khorovod;
marriage, being a most important time,
brings forth many songs, such as "The

PREHISTORIC RELICS
OF AMERICA SOUGHT
Scientific Interest Is Aroused in
Indian Mound Builders.


BIZ Science Service
EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill, Feb. s.
Relics Of prehistoric America buried
at the base of the Powell mound,
one of the great Cahokia group of
Indian mounds, are to be sought,
starting within a week. DR.. A. r.
Kelly, director of Illinois acheo-
logical explorations, has informed
Science Service.
Scientific interest in the mound
was aroused when steam shovel
operations were about to level it
for farming purposes. The upper
layers, now removed, contained
many objects belonging to the
mound building Indians of the Ca
hokia settlement.
The basal portion of the mound
will shed new light on the rather
mysterious Cahokia mound builders,
it is hoped. Cahokia was an ex-
ceptionally large settlement of In
dians, yet not particularly progress
sive, judging by its art and crafts.
The present theory is that the set
clement acquired its culture from
farther south. That the culture
may have extended as far north as
Wisconsin is indicated by objects
found at the Aztalan ruins in
Wisconsin.
