day when she was being lifted to the saddle of her fat little pony, You ought to be . good horse- woman if you take after your mother. Many a time I've seen her galloping over your grand fathers Tanchl"
 The telephone tinkled. Calls amber eyes glowed. Had Derek got rid of his guest unexpectedly. she wondered taking down the receiver. But 1t was Dicks voice she heard. 50 you got back sooner than you expected?" Gall said. "You're going to stay in town for the evening. Oh, you have your car with you. Yes, with Rosemary at the Langs but why don't you go there now? They're all out at some affair yes, I'll be ready-goodby."
 quickly she stuffed the letter into her handbag. and. changing into crisp organdie frock and pulling on a featherweight felt hat of the same delicate shade of green, she stepped again to the window. In a few minutes she saw Dicks slender car nosing it's way to the curb.
 They met in the foyer and as they walked toward the swinging door Dicks eyes grew bright, for Gail looked radiant. "I'm 50 glad you're back. Did you get along all right with your business2" she exclaimed.
 T guess so, Gail. I wired the information to Dad and that's why he called me back. It's been pret- ty hot driving today and came down at pod clip, but it's worth 1t st..l as crazy about you as ever"
 "Then "s1 haven't taken my advice
 "Wre. IS ,hat2"
 ''To L9d nice girl and marry herl"
 I've found the girl, but she won't promise to marry me What would you do in a case like that2" He helped her into the car.
 Forget herw declared Gall Then az she saw a shadow darken his eyes, she patted his arm Listen, Dick, I'm terribly excit. ed, 50 you must excuse mel"
 What's up?"
 "Wait til we reach the place where we're to dine. Then I'll tell you all about it."
 Presently they were seated at a table and Dick gave the order Gail handed him the letter from her purse and said. "I'm wiring this man he can have the ranch the minute I get the cash"
 But, Gall, you'd better go slow about this. Dad owns some land in Arizona. Better let him find out if this is fair offer"
 "Oh, but, Dick, $l0,00O is for tune to me. I couM start on my own if had it." While they talked apparently so confiden- tially - Gail did not see Derek and his companion enter the room.

CHAPTER xxx

Calls spirits dropped as she step- ped into the elevator again. Rita Cordeil had spoken so hopefully about this chance yet nothing had come of itl What would she do next2 She did not want to tell Derek. She knew his solution would be an immediate marriage. He'd in- sist they could get along somehow and that he wanted to take care of her. But there was Derek's work No, he must not have more respon- abilities now.
 The lobby was crowded, and men and women were shaking their hats on the floor as Gail reached the door. The streets were spattered with hailstones, and the few people still outdoors were racing to cover. Outside 1t was dark as night, though the great crashes of thunder were hardly distinguishable from the noise of the city's roar, and the streak of lightning zigZagging across the threatening black sky might have ben mistaken for sorsse of the dancing electric signs.
 It was terrifying sight, and Gall was glad sD be unde. cover. Yet, as the men and women churned about her, she thought of what Derek had said about the wholesale end of the game. If Jonas Wolff was typical of the people shed have to associate with, she confessed that even a person like Madame Lizette might be preferable. Wolff seemed so utterly self-satisfled and selfish. He had not even suggested where sch might look for work next.
 The sky grew lighter and the crowd thinned away. Men and women started on their way again, keeping close to the huge struc- lures as though seeking protec- ton. Gail left the building. She might as well go back to the club h0sise. She would get out the tele- phone book and make a list of places where she might find an opening. Passing a newsstand, she bought copy of trade pub- iication. Sometimes there were "help wanted" advertisements in its columns.
 It was almost half past 6 when Natalie came to Calls door. Aren't you going to eat tonight?" she asked. T should think you'd want to have big celebration after the boost Rita Cordell gave you"
 Boosted me out of my jobl That's what Rita's article did for me- Calls lips quiyered as she smiled.
 "What, you mean that Madame Lizette fired you? No, Gail, you can't mean that"
 "That's what happened. She was furious" Quickly Gail told of her eventful day.
 "The old so-and-soi hope she gets it in the neckl Doesn't she realize that having brilliant de- signer like you would really mean . fortune for her? You know the debs just flock to places like hers bf they think they can get some- thing unusual"
 Madame Lizette evidently does n't think that" Gail laughed. "I was so mad told her she'd lost Rosemary's trade entirely. But Nat aiie, what am I to do now?"
 Lets go to dinner. don't be- Iieve you had any lunch" She looked searchingly at her friend

no m to tell them that far away,
across the plains, a paleface trapper
had had those same ugly, red marks
come out on his body and had laid
down under a tree, alone, and died.
Nor did they know that an Indian,
CHANGING to find the paleface body, had
stripped 1t and appropriated the cloth
ing, thus spreading the ravaging cpl
demic through many tribes of Montana
Indians. They knew only that they, who
had felt such fierce pride in their
splendid strength, were now weaken
ing Xix sick squaws, and that nothing
they could do, neither the sweat lodge
nor dances nor chants nor prayers,
could save the stricken ones. They were
lonely and afraid up there on the high
butte. At night the dark was peopled
with evil ones. They longed to rush
down from that place and join their
tribe but would not, lest the curse
spread over all the Crows.

cause of the evil which had descended
upon them. And they spoke thus:
Our medicine men have done all

then all our people will be cursed as

sign. He will make the fire leap higher
than the tallest trees. If not, then the
fire shall die down. I have spoken"
And they did as their headman had
advised. They piled huge pine branches
on the fire and then stood back watch
ing intently. At first they thought the
fire would die down but then flames
led, and soon were leaping higher than
the tallest trees. Thus they knew that
the Great Spirit had heard their words
and that this sign was His promise
to guard the Absarokee tribe from the
evil that had cursed the few.
Then the 20 grave warriors silently
prepared for their journey over the
Slippery Log. And when all was ready
they blindfolded their horses, mounted,
the buffalo trail past the hill known
the stream which palefaces named
"A1kali creek" and on to a high point
overlooking the Yellowstone river.
There they paused. The headman gave
the signal. They .quirted their horses
and the blindfolded animals went
the edge. Their hoofs chung to the
stones and the soft shale gave away
and they and their riders, all that were
left of the once proud, strong band of
Grow warriors, went down into the
waters of the Echeta Casha Asha.
To insure the welfare of their tribe
they paid the high price demanded of
them. The few gave their lives that
the many might live.
And 20 the butte overlooking the
town Of Billings, that high butte just
above Boot Hill cemetery upon which
Yellowstone Kelly was given his last
resting place, has for many years been
known as Sacrifice Cliff"

camp on the north bank Of the river
near the spot where the town Of Coul-
son later sprang up. And looking across
the valley and up onto the high butte
doc" Bill Allen saw many bright
hued streamers waving from pine
branches in the breeze. His curiosity
aroused he rode over the plains and
up the cliff. In the book, BLANKETS
and Moccasins" we are told:
HE peered up into the branches to
shrink back from the sight confronting
him. For each tree there were one or
two skeletons, seeming to grin with
ghoulish mirth as they dipped and
swayed and ratified their bones. Bright
blankets had apparently been used as
shrouds, and these blankets, rotted and
torn to shreds by time and weather,
floated like gay banners through the
air. The bodies, Allen perceived. had
been bound with rawhide thongs but
the thongs, too, were beginning to rot,
releasing a bleached skeleton so that
it dangled from the branches as though
it were dancing to the tune of the
wind"
But when the Crow warriors, fright
ened and awed, first bound the bodies
of their comrades to the trees there
were no palefaces to explain to them
that the awful sickness which had

part of the front walls collapsed and
showered them with debris.
Postmaster E. F. O'Neil and other
postal employees escaped without in
jury.
The explosion blew out all the doors
and walls on the main floor and the
entire front walls of the building
caved in.
A radiator that fell from the second
floor narrowly missed Mrs. Blanche
Abbott, a clerk.
While a check of loss of mail and
contents of the building was in prog
ress, Postmaster O'Neil set up tenn
porary quarters in the old p~ostoffice.
A terrific blast shook the structure
when Oberkirsch lighted his pipe while
at work in the postmaster's private
suite. Flames shot from O'Neil's offices
and two more explosions followed in
quick succession.
Walls cracked and plaster was show
cred down. Doors and windows vert
blown out and the entire front of the
building cracked.
