Asper snapped. "and that is all"
Swergin went on. speaking in the
same tone. "None of you are to
ride up Pass creek trail. Ball Is
more than likely hiding up there.
I'll take that trail myself.
i've given the men orders to lay

is due for a bullet unless they know
the country"
Doha turned her horse and rode
away. Swergin's manner was a
challenge and his bold impudence
angered her. She met the tall cow
boy riding out Of the corral. With
a smile she greeted him.
You haven't told me your
name?"

Planting his feet wide, he settled
back against the rope and waited
for the saddle he knew was coming
Bring a saddle!" Dona called.
The astonished cowboy leaped
over the fence and dragged heavy
stock saddle from the fence. With
"a flip he swung it to his shoulder
Better let me take some of the
starch out of him" he called.
Dona knew that this was wise adj
vice, but she had made a perfect
catch and she had also made it evil
dent that she was going to ride the
roam.
Her pride ruled over her better
judgment which told her that she
had not been in a saddle for several
years except to canter along bride
path and that she had her rope on
a spirited horse who could and
would buck.
For a second she hesitated, then
her eyes twinkled and her full lips
parted. With a devastating smile,
she faced the cowboy.
Shorten the stirrups and knot
the reins for me. Then saddle this
fellow. 1 intend to ride him."

to act on the record, and not the

If nothing else, this Endorsement
points the trend of public opinion,
and indicates that despite his
frantic struggles and the probable
sacrifice of the rest of the Re-

CHAPTER EIGHT

DONA stifled CULVER in her arm
~ as the cowboy slid up to the
roam she had roped. His chapps
Tapped noisily and he evidently was
reluctant to obey her.
He had shortened the stirrupS and
knotted the bride reins, but he still
was undecided as to whether he
should disobey Asper Delo a d al
low Dona to mount bad horse.
Dona became impatient. Her
nerve was beginning to waver just a
little. Make 1t snappyl" she
ordered.
Her words had the effect she de-
sired. They caused the cowboy to
jerk the saddle forward and toss it
across the roan's back.
Dona knew that after that she
hAIld have to go ahead.
1.-The roam submitted to saddling
and bridling with a minimum OF
snorting and swaying. He intended
to have his inning when the rider
/, bit the saddle.
He did not have to wait long for
his opportunity. without trying the
cinch, Dona swung into the saddle
and jerked the roans head up.
The big roam arched his back and
shot into the air. Dona ierked off
her hat. She knew this big fellow
would expect it. Her spurs raked his
wetherS and his straining chest as
far forward as she could reach.
The battle was on, with the roam
twisting and shooting into the air
and landing stiff legged in a Earring
iolting crow hop. The cowboy
stood in open-mouthed admiration
and watched.
From then on Dona would have
him as an abject slave.
Her en- tire attention had to be given
40 the big fellow twisting and plung-
ing beneath her. She did not want
TO pull leather. Her pride made her
keep from reaching for the saddle
horn, but she was desperate.
4 Six jumps, then seven and eight
and still the roam was going strong.

Dudley had been so engrossed in
listening to Swergin that be did not
notice Dona until the timber boss
had quit talking.
When he saw her, he poked his
mount over to her side by humping
him in the ribs. He recognized the
roam and his eyes widened. Then
he flushed deeply and his lips pulled
tight.
You look like real trooper" he
greeted her, without making any
comment on the horse.
= =
CWERGIN rode up and joined
~ them, while the other riders
cantered of in different directions.
All looked grimly determined and
very much in earnest.
Swergin's eyes rested on Dona's
horse and a CLINT of anger shone
in them. He addressed Asper.
"I'll fire that slim leatherneck, !"
he gritted.

the Alexandria and Evansville COM
munities, were shocked Thursday
noon to learns of the tragic death

Lake, who was killed when a jam
med shell in his shotgun exploded
while he was cleaning the gun.
The victim, who left Alexandria
in September, 1881, to work in FL
bow Lake after having been en-
ployed here for several years, had
taken his family to Wendell Thurs
day morning. Coming back to FL
bow Lake he saw a flock of pleas
ants near the road. He had his gun
along and got out of the machine
to shoot. The weapon, a double
barreled shotgun, damned, how
ever, and he put it back in the car
and proceeded to Elbow Lake.
Painters and paper-hangers were
busy in the house, into which the
family had just moved, and Mr..
johnson mentioned to them that
the shells were stuck in his gun
and that he was going to take
them out before putting the gun
away.
He went in the basement and
after extracting one of the shells
was trying to get the other one out
when the gun went off, the charge
entering the victims left shoulder
and heart to cause instantaneous

Henry llgen Shot
Otter By Error
Rare Animal Will Be Mounted and
Put on Display in Public School
Trophy Case

Last Tuesday Henry Ilgen re-
ported to Game Warden Fred Moss
man that he had shot an otter at
Wheeler Lake, north of Spaulding.
He told the warden that he had shot
the animal when he thought it to
be a mink.
The otter, formerly plentiful
around the lakes of Minnesota, are
now practically extinct in this COM
munity, although there is report
that three of these valuable fur
bearing animals reside in Westport
Lake. There is no open season in
Minnesota for the taking of otter
at any time during the year.
The otter, shot by Mr.. Ilgen,
weighed ,1714 pounds, and was a
perfect specimen. Game Warden
Mossman and Robert Schwalen,
president of the Conservation Club,
took it to Motley Wednesday eve
ming, where a taxidermist has been
employed to mount the specimen
and when completed it will be plac-
ed in the High School trophy case.
The cost of mounting the animal
will be cared for by popular SUBJ
scription, and a goodly amount has
already been raised. Anyone in
terested and wishing to donate a
small sum to this fund should get
in touch with Robert Schwalen, as
soon as possible.
