The captain rested It across the rocks. The captain was right in his suspicions.
The besieging force of savages, disheartened at their bloody repulse, had quietly withdrawn behind the ridges in hopes to lure the white men from their stronghold.
They would have waited until the wagons were strung out in line and pressing forward, and then a charge would have brought victory. The man who volunteered to act as scout had betrayed the plot, llis willfulness would

As there are 200,000.000 gallons in bond, or enough to supply the country for two years, tliis means an out-and-out present to the whisky trust of

Two minutes after that cry of alarm had reached the men in the fort the Indians could be seen all about them. Concealment waa useless, and the red demons circled about the fort on their ponies and kept up such a yelling that one would have thought they regarded sound as powder and bullet. up the hubbub for an hour, and then dismounted out of rillo range to rest. "We shall hear from that renegado I before long," Baid the captain, as he rioted a crowd of Indians at a certain point "Have any of yon men got an old fashioned rifle?" "I have," replied a man named Peters. "It's not only old style, hut heavy enough to use as artillery. I brought it1 along because 1 couldn't even give it away at Brule."
The gun was fished out of hla wagon and brought forward. It was the old fashioned buffalo rifle, carrying a bullet like a cavalry carbine, and its owner had brought along a few charges for it It had scarcely been loaded when the renegade stepped out from tho crovrd with a white flag and advanced to within pistol shot of tho fort Then he baited and sung out: "Boys, you have made a brave defense, but it's no use in trying to hold out agin us.

That's lettin ye off powerful easy, being as the reds are mad all the way through." "Shan't we also leave our guns and revolvers behind?" asked the captain in sarcasm. "As to that," replied the renegade, taking him seriously, "it might bo a good ijeo ft would show yer faith in us." "You captured one of my men over the ridge an hour ago," "Wo did That is, we didn't capture him, but axed him to stop with us for a visit, tie's in joy in hisself as hearty as you please." "Let him count your numbers and come in and give us tho figures. If you are as strong as you say we may decide to surrender." "We—wo couldn't do that, ye know That's rayther agin the rules of war.
However, tho minit ye march out we'll set him free to jine ye." "It's no use!" called the captain in docided tones. "We won't talk surrender until tho man comes in."
The renegade returned to his friends and held a brief council, after which he came forward to say: "Boys, can't hold 'em in much longer —no, 1 can't. Ye must cum to terms or take the consequences." "Won't you release the man?" "We can't. It would only make one more to fight us." "Then go back to your friends and tell them we'll shoot down every horse, burn every wagon and shoot each other before we surrender!"
There was a general howl of rage among the Indians when this

It was only a question of tnno I when the climax would come. The red1 skins were therefore content to preserve an irregular circle around tlio fort and wait. ..
Noon came.
I Of a sudden each suffering horso pricked up his ears, held his head high and gazed intently toward the east. "The soldiers!" whispered a dozen inen. "No—ram!" replied the captain, as he pointed to the sky.
All looked to seo a black cloud looming up over the ridge a mile away, nnd in a moment there was a flash of lightI ning and a heavy peal of thunder. "Rain—raiu—rain!" shouted the men as they rushed hero and there like so many boys, but under the orders of the cool headed captain tho greater part of
them were soon at worn to prodt Dy the heaven sent shower. Everything which would catch or retain water was spread out on the ground, while the canvas covers of tlio wagons were arranged in folds and pouches They were scarcely ready when the storm broke. The rain poured down copiously for half an hour, and by that time all suffering had ended, and the supply on hand was enough for three days. "Let us ipve three cheers," cried one of the more entlmsiastio men as the storm passed away and the sun showed its face again. "Hark!" whispered the captain. ''The

[CONTINUED,]
CHAPTER VIL
The downpour of rain had shattered the plans of the redskins. They could no longer be held to the siege, knowing that the climax was indefinitely postponed, nor could the bombastic talk of the chiefs bring them up to another assault They were ready to go, but before moving off they had ono last card to play, Better for the renegade he had not meddled with it.
Huntley, tho man who had been taken prisoner, was now brought forward, the white man holding ono arm -and a stalwart warrior the other. When within Epeaking distance he said: "Captain, they have got me, and they declare that if you don't surrender they'll burn mo alive!" "We are sorry for you, Jim!"' replied the captain, "but you know what surrender would mean. They would butcher every man of us insido of ten minutes." "But think of me," wailed the man in sorrowful tones. "Think of the tortures they will inflict before they kill me!" '•It's bad, Jiiu—terrible bad! I'd give an arm to have you insido with us this minute." "But 1 can't die—oh, 1 can't die!" shrieked the man.
The captain seemed to be thinking, and the prisoner knelt down, clasped his hands and wailed out: "Captain, for the love of God, do something for me! Come out here and talk it over and make tliem an offer. They'll let.you come and go safely." "It is only a trap for you!" shouted half a dozen voices at tho captain. "Aye, lads, I know it, but I'd take almost any risk for poor Jim. He's nigh scart to death, and seeing what in store for him, wo can't blame him." I Then raising his voice he called to
Huntley: "Keep up bravely, Jim. We can't help you just now, but the time may come within an hour. Don't give up yet."
Few white men have been known to I I fire on a flag of truce, no matter how treacherous tho enemy who bore it. I
Huntley had been brought forward tni-1 der one, mid it was respected. Had one of the trainmen gone out with a flag he would have been shot down or made I prisoner, and the others ridiculed for their confidence.
When tho three had returned to the I lines the captain asked for Peter's heavy rifle.
1
had been carefully loaded for
I the occasion, and the captain rested it across the rocks and waited a minute
They kept until the renegade came into view. Every man in the inelosure held his breath and watched for the result of the shot. It was a minute before the sights covered the renegade, but when the rifle cracked he was seen to throw up his arms and fall heavily to the earth.
There was a howl from the Indians and a cheer from the fort, but both were drowned in a volley of musketry, a chorus of yells and the thunder of horses' feet. 'The relief party had arrived. "Out of (his, boys, and go for 'em!" shouted the captain as he caught sight of a large body oi cavalry charging down the slope.
It was quick work. The Indians had been caught napping, and their only, idea was to get away. In a quarter of an hour the last one of them had lieen chased out of sight, and those who counted tip the corpses counted thirtyeight. In that struggle to wipe out the wagon train the Indians lost, as was afterward confessed, a total of ninety-five men, and their sole offset was ono pris oner.
Joe had found the party in a grove fifteen miles from the forks. They had come on as the nature of the ground would permit, dreading that they might be too late, and their arrival had at last set the littlo band free. There was cheering and shouting and wild enthusiasm as the battlo ended and the men rushed to shake each other's hands.
Bess had hidden herself in the wagon
to give thanks to God and indulge in a I
little cry when some one sprang upon the seat and held out his hand. The figure was dressed as an Indian, and she screamed iu terror. "Not a redskin, but Joe!" laughed voice she was longing to hear. "And you did this for—for us?" she stammered jus she moved toward him. "For—for us, but more particularly for you," he replied im he seized her hand.
CHAPTER VIII.
What of Huntley? In the coniusion and excitement no one had thought of him, but after matters began to calm down a littlo his friends began to make anxious inquiry, fie was last seen a moment before the renegade was shot. Tho attack on the Indians had been so sudden that many of them had lied on I xil, and it waa hoped that those having the prisoner in charge would leave him behind in their panic.
A search was inado for two miles around, but no trace of tho captive could 1)0 found. Hurried as they were tlio savages had managed to run him off. When this fact becamo generally known more than ono man sadly shook his head and muttered: "Poor Jim! Better for him if lie word lying hero a corpse!"
Tho party of soldiers and hunters were anxious to get on, and an hour after the fighting had ceased tho wagon train moved out of tho inelosure in good shape, and with no fear of being again molested for days to come. Most of the dead warriors wero stripped ot their ornaments, at least, while arms and am'munition were carefully gathered up. No one thought of burying the dead. The Indians wjyiUl return for that purres and vultures
Let us trace the fate of Iluntlcy. Von may bo one of those who believe that the Indian lias been grievously wronged You may believe he has tlio sentiments attributed to him by novelists. You I may have read that the feeling of mercy has a lodgment in his heart.
When the man rode out of the fort 011 his wont he firmly believed that the? Indians had withdrawn. Ho was a brave mail. None but a brave man would liavo periled Ins life to ba 't his opinions tlio face of tlio wari.i!, lie received. When ho rode out for naif a miln and turned to the left the last doubt vanished. The Indians had withdrawn He had made assertions and proved liir sagacity.
Next moment, as ho disappeared over, the crest of the ridge, he found himself in the midst of a horde of Indians lying in concealment. Ho uttered one luiid, farreachimt shout of astonishment, and was pulled from his horso to bo menaced to silence by tomahawk and knife. Out there was
110
need to nienaco htm.
A great terror seemed to have frozen the blood in his veins. Ho could not have cried out again had they pricked him with their knives. Ho was dumb He was helpless.
The captive's signal of alarm had been heard and
giving thanks to God. She is I strong man down and hold him in chains We should pray instead of
,U,lr

of terror. He looked about him with horror in his gaze. His bronzed face grew deathlv white. His lips had that bloodless, liluo look which the lips of the dead carry.
It was not until he had been cruelly I beaten about that he partially threw off the horrible incubus and secured strength enough to gft forward and make the appeal he was told to make. He heard his own voice, but he could not recognize it.
Huntley had been mounted to be taken away before the attack came. Indeed he and the two warriors guarding him had already made a fair start to tho southwest and were beyond pursuit. After a ride of ten miles over the broken I ground a halt was made at a grove which appeared to be an old camping ground. As the Indians fled before the vengeance of the whites they made for this grove, and at length all who had escaped death were reunited here.
A score of tigers starved for days could not have been iu worse temper. Wounded and umvounded alike thirsted for vengeance. Ilad they held A hundred prisoners each ono would have been put to the torture, and yet the sufferings of all would not have placated I the defeated and decimated band.
They had but one. Fifty enraged savages rushed at him to chop him to pieces with knife ami tomahawk, but the chiefs restrained them. A speedy death would be too merciful and deprivo them of anticipated enjoyments. As soon as the scouts posted on tho distant ridges signaled that the white men wero moving for the forks there was no occasion for further delay.
Huntley's demeanor had undergone a change. That dumb terror which had made a woman of him had passed away and his own brave spirit had returned to make a man of liiin. Ho reproached himself for his cowardice in begging of the fiends to spare his life. He thirsted for revenge. Ho exulted over their bloody defeats.
Let a pack of wolves follow on tho trail of a brave man and he may seek to outrun them—dodgo—escape. Ho will fear them. Let them drive him into a cul de sac from which there is no escape, and he will turn and fight them, even with bare ha«!s, and die fighting.
A sapling was cut down and driven into the ground for a stake, and a dozen savages ran about to collect fagots for a fire.
Huntley's eyes blazed. His bonds had j'''become loosened and his guards were watching tho preparations. Uttering the hunter's warwhoop and wrenching himself free in tho sudden effort, he twisted a tomahawk from the belt of tho nearest savago and began to lay about him.
He could not escape. He realized that he would be quickly overpowered and tortured wit'u additional fervor for every blow he struck, but he dashed here and there with the strength of a giant and the frenzy of a madman, 'OS1I Crash! Crash! Crash!
The Indians were taken by surprise by the hunter's sudden break, and then I there was such a terrible change in his looks (hat they shrank away anpalled.
His whine of supplication had changed I to shrill yells of defiance his eyes no* longer betrayed a tenor stricken soul.
Swish! Sweep! Crash! He buried the sharp tomahawk to tlie eye at every blow. Ho followed them np as thev fell away before him. As they cried out in alarm he shouted in deI fiance.
It was a momentary panic. They could have shot him down, but the chiefs kept shouting orders not to do it. I The frenzied and desperate man .had I killed two and wounded three when he I was driven to bay and found himself surrounded. He stood panting for a moment wilh his exertion. while the blood dripped from tho sharp tomahawk upon the green grass.
T""l" n«l,'-to
th(
1 1,'ft-iu
roar—the circle was closing upon him.
There was no escape With li: htnmglike movements the man swung the tomahawk about him, cutting and gashing himself in a dozen places, and as a rush was mado ho tottered and fell like some great tree which had lived out lis century anil was weary of further life. Blood was spurting from several veins and arteries, and ere he could be dragged to the stake and bound life hud lied. When this fact became known there was a general howl of rage and disappointment, and a dozen savages fell upon tho poor body with tho fury of fiends. They scalped it. They severed tho head and kicked it about for a football. They cut off hands and feet and Hung them about. They hacked and cut and slashed and gave themselves up to their devilish passion for blood and revenge, but the poor body was beyond feeling.
For every Indian revealing the honest courage of tho white man there are a thousand skulking cowards.
For every redskin feeling tho sentiments of humanity there aro a thousand who delight in tho tortures of a child,
For every savago who has rewarded the kindness of tho whito man with another act of kindness a hundred havo laid in wait for his life.
So called humanitarians say that tho Indian has hereditary rights because ho was hero when the white man came. So were tho wolves, bears, panthers and serpents.
They shed tears because he has been pushed back from the shores of the Atlantic to tho plains of the west. That is tho march of progress. Every civilized and enlightened country on earth has exterminated its original population, even when hapless anSdefensive.
The American Indian has no prototype.
