Boss DEBS warned President Cleveland to keep his hands off. The President. however, with his characteristic obstinacy declined the boss' instructions, and now the usurper is in the toils.

Losing either one of these rights, labor is no longer free, Botli must be maintained at any cost.

.SENATOR HII.I., it is reported from Washington, is about to be boycotted by his Democratic colleagues to the extent of denying him admission to the party conferences. The .Senator, however, still say,- "I am a Democrat."

WHEX Debs gets through with his strike then the fiddlers must be paid. Chicago will have to pay them all, and the tax payers of that city will have these bills hanging over them for some years to come. And no person will feel it more heavily that the poor I freeSdupes that have been led by Debs.

DEBS is very desirous of arbitration. but he wants to arbitrate on his own terms. The terms he offers are that Pullman shall restore to his men the wages they were receiving before the depression set in and that the railroads shall take back the strikers without prejudice. Debs is nothing if not a dictator.

EX-PRESIDENT H.viimsox stands by President Cleveland in his efforts to enforce the laws of the country. Republicans may criticise President Cleveland on political questions, but when it comes to a question of stamping out anarchy in Chicago he deserves the commendation of all law-abiding citizens irrespective of political feeling.

THERE are 05,000 veterans of Uncivil war living in Indiana.

THK Senate tariff bill which will probably be the law in the course of time, makes a gift of from 800,000,000 to $70,000,000 "to the Whisky Trust. Tins is done, first, by ellowing the Trust to take out under present rates of duty the 200,000,000 gallons now in bond and sell it at an advance of .'0 cents per gallon permitted by the increased duty and, second, by extending the bonded period to eight years instead of three, thus giving the Trust five years interest on future deferred payments. The first privilege is worth 840,000,000, the latter from §20,000,000 to 830,000,000. If there is anytliything the Great Trusts want and don't see in the mongTel bill, they have only to ask for it.

than to wish that he could help her. Harkins was that one man. He had been strangely drawn to her, and her situation aroused all liia sympathies. He determined to attempt her rescue, even at the peril of his life. He drew away from the mass of rock, strapped his rifle to his back, and then crept over the rough ground ou hands and knees, moving to flank the party on the right.

It was a rough and dangerous route, leading over great masses of rock, under thick pines and across seams or rifts, but he moved with care until well in the rear of the camp.

Then his route was down the side of the mountain until all at once he came upon the wagon. It had been pulled up out of tho valley to be hidden by the

having been lariated out at some spot where there was grazing. Looking up at the campfire from the wagon the Englishman could see the four renegades playing cards by the blaze. Between him and them was the girl. He hesitated only long enough to get his bearings and then began creeping upward. He felt now that more depended on the girl than himself. If she was asleep she might scream out as lie aroused her. If she saw him come creeping up she might take him for an Indian and alarm her captors. Even should all go right up to that moment, would she have the nerve and strength to creep away with him?

Half way to the fire the brave Englishman halted to canvass the chances with himself. He realized the hazards, but after a couple of minutes ho continued on his way. By and by, as he elevated his head above a bowlder, he saw the girl before him and not five feet away. She was sitting upright and had her face turned toward him.

Harkins lifted his right hand as a signal. Tho girl lifted a hand in answer.

Then he beckoned to her to come. She answered with a sweep of her hand, which told him that she was tied to the tree.

CHAPTER XV.

A man find a woman approachcd him. Taylor entered the camp about midafternoon, liatless and apparently in great distress from having come at such a rapid pace. He reported that he and Harkins had been attacked by about a dozen Indians soou after eating their noonday meal, and that while Harkins had been shot down he had miraculously escaped the deadly bullets and dashed for the camjj. He had been pursued up to within rifle shot of the wagons, and he pretended great fear lest the camp would be immediately attacked.

Two of tho prospectors had returned but two others were still out. Before waiting to question Taylor or hear his whole story the camp prepared for defense, and it was only after an hour had passed away that any one questioned the near presence of Indians.

Bess know nothing of her bereavement until the captain and others began to question Taylor. About this time the other party came in, and it transpired that Taylor alone had seen Indians. None of the others had seen the slightest cause for alarm. In repeating his story Taylor got it badly mixed, and when lie

"1—1 fired on tho Injuus, of course," stammered Taylor. "Oh, you did! We thought yon said you had your gun on your back and was climbing up amass of rock to get a look around?" "I—I've got to lie down and think it over and quiet my nerves. I've had such a close call that I'm rattled and can't remember just how it all was."

As Taylor flung himself down the men gathered in a group to discuss his

it, but as no one knew of his feeling against Harkins there was no key to his actions. Bess sought to furnish one by Baying: "I know this man hated father, and I could 6oe it every time ho looked at us. Why he did I do not know, but I know that he had an ill will. If father is dead he had something to do with it!" "Hush, child!" cautioned the captain »f the train. "Your father and Taylor

But he told two or three different stories about it," answered Joe, "and his actions are suspicious. If he has done this he shall" "I will shoot him with my own hand I" sternly replied the captain. "Let everything rest till he awakes. It may have been as he says—that fright and exhaustion may have upset him." "But he must guide us to the spot in the morning," persisted Joe. "1 shall insist upon that, even if we have to leave the camp alone," added Bess. "It shall be so," replied the captain. "We shall know all in the morning."

Bess retreated to the wagon, rent with conflicting emotions and prostrated by grief and doubt, and the men went about their duties without a word to each other. All felt that there was something wrong about Taylor's story, but all hesitated to believe him guilt}' of the heinous crime of taking tie lifo of a comrade.

Night came down. Taylor had hidden his faco under his blanket, but he had not closed his eyes in sleep. He was not tortured by remorse. On the contrary, he was elated over the thought that he now alone possessed tilo secret of the cave of gold. But he was troubled that he had not told a better story. Before firing the shot he had planned just how he would act

guilt always brings had upset liirn and caused him to halt and hesitate and toll a very lame story.

Many a man who has planned a crime has tlKHight it all over and prepared himself at every point only to realize after its commissien that he left loopholes in his armor of defense.

It was long after dark beforo Taylor rose up. He had then settled on a story from which he would not vary. He told it to the men, and he told it with such apparent sincerity that some of them believed him, while none disputed. Bess had come forward to hear it, as was her right. When lie had finished there was a long, painful silence, broken at last by the girl, who said "If this story be true you have done only what another might do so situated. We shall know tomorrow. You can find the place again, and you will lead us there." "1—1 was dreadfully turned around, and I might not be able to find the exact spot," replied Taylor. "You must!" answered Bess. ".My father's bones must not lie unburied! His death shall not go unavenged!" "Well, I'll try, and if we all lose our scalps in the effort 1 cannot be held responsible. I'm sure there's an Indian camp not far from that spot, and it's a wonder to mo we haven't been attacked since I came in. There were as many as seven right after mo for two or three miles."

The men, and especially Joe, had looked to see the girl break down under the strain, but she did not. She fought against it and clung to the hope that her father still lived, though he might be wounded and a prisoner.

Midnight came and all was quiet. Joe went on guard at that hour, and an hour later, as all his senses were keenly alert, he heard a whistle. No Indian would make use of such a signal. There were no white men in the neighborhood. Was it the note of some bird of night?

There it came again—a whistle of inquiry—as if some one was seeking to locate the camp. Believing it to be some prospector or hunter who had lost himself during the day, Joo answered the signal.

It came again and nearer. Now he heard footsteps and a moment later a man anil a woman approached him from out. of tho darkness. "Halt! Who is it?" challenged the sentinel. "Harkins!" was the reply. "Great heavens!" whispered Joe as tho pair came to a halt before him. "But this does beat me. And that is you, Harkins, and alive!" "Yes, it is Harkins, and here is a poor girl I rescued from a camp of white renegades up the valley. I've got lots to tell. Has Taylor come in?" "Yres, and ho reported you killed by the Indians." "He sought my life himself, but be quiet. If ho is asleep do not arouse him. Wake the captain, and after we have cared for this woman I have a story to tell."

CHAPTER XVL

The man's amazement and terror were pltljul. The captain was himself on guard on the other side of the camp, and he quickly came up to find out what the confusion meant. "This girl is suffering for food and rest," 6aid Harkins, "and must be attended to first. Then you shall have the story."

He quietly awoke Bess, made a brief explanation, and after Lizzie had been provided with food the two girls sought the wagon and Harkins sat down with

I shall not believe it until I see his dead body." "But are you doubting my words, miss?" "If the Indians killed him his body will be lying where it fell," she answered. "Yon can find the spot again— you must find it. We cannot go now, as night is coming on, but we shall go in tae morning. If the wild beasts have iu-t'ed his body, I -want it for Christian lurial. If they, have not. 1 want what

Taylor had fired upon him, there was no proof. Neither of his listeners doubtad that assassination had been intended, but unless Taylor broke down and confessed it what could they do? Moral certainty is not proof. "And what makes the thing more strange to me is the fact that he must have had a strong motive," said the captain. "And we can't guess it," added Joe.

Then Harkins told them of the deathbed revelation of the old hunter, and the motjve pM ^lajp.| TavJift w^fl deter-

He told them of tho rehugtules and their errand —of (he girl he had rescued and what had haptiontvl her, and of the emissary who liiigh* expected to appear camp next forenoon. It was daybreak before they wore through tjill ing, and yet only the Iwu Men and Bess knew of the arrivals.

The first thing is to dispose of Taylor," said the captain in response to an inquiry of what should be dono. "The men will soon bo astir, and llarkius had best lie low tor a couplo of hours. As soon as breakfast is over 1 shall ask Taylor to head a party to tho place he described. Let us see what ho will do."

Harkins sought one of the wagons,

another, not one had a suspicion that anything unusual had occurred during the night. Breakfast was prepared and eaten, and tho captain and Joe, who were watching Taylor very closely, saw by his demeanor that ho was restless and ill at ease. He seemed to have lost I I his appetite, and ho glanced around him as if expecting some sudden danger.

Bessie came from tho wagon equipped as for an expedition, and, walking up to Taylor, she said:

am ready. We are to find and recover my father's body today." "Yes, I will send two men with you," added the captain. "1—1 can't go—not this morning!" stammered Taylor. "I'm sick. I'm almost too sick to sit up." I "Do you still say that tho Indians shot my father down?" demanded Bess. "Do 1? Of eonrso 1 do! You all seem to bo agin me. Do you think 1 killed I him myself.'" "IIow many Indians did you count?" j. A11 of ten." "How did they attack you?" "Fired a volley at us and then began I to yell." .. I "Von are sure they yelled?" •'Sure! They kept it up half an hour." 'It was odd that 1 heard no other sound but the single report of your

rifle!" said a voice behind Taylor, and he wheeled about to find Harkins confronting him.

The man's amazement and terror were pitiful. He essayed to speak, but the words would not come. He looked helplessly from side to side and trembled as with a chill. "It is not the dead come back," said Harkins, "but the living. Your bullet only grazed my arm. 1 fell into a gnleli just as you fired upon me. There were no Indians there!"

Taylor looked from mail to man. Each face was hard set and vengeful. 'You are all agin me!" he linally shouted. "You've got mad at me and want to drive me away! Why should 1 waut to take Harkins' life?" "But yuu fired upon me, and here is the empty shell to prove, it," said Harijkius. "If—1 did, theri'l was scared of—of the Indians," stammered Taylor. "You know the law of the plains!' said the captain to Taylor in a liintv voice. "The man who murders a coutrude must die himself!'' "1—1 didn't mm del- him!" "No, you did not. but the man who attempts murder must be punished,

You must go! In one hour you must be out of camp, and should you return you I will be fired upon!"

To turn man out in that locality was giving him up to a hundred perils, if not to certain death, but Taylor eagerly caught at the opportunity. I "I'll willingly go," he replied. "Indeed 1 don't want to stay. Vou are all agin me mid ,1 cuiihin't bo easy here, ,j. can take al'l.iny'jriip's, 1 reckon?" 1 "Certainly."

Taylor had a horse, blankets, spare ammunition, spade and pick and cookLing utensils. Tlii'sii articles were packed np anil strapped to his horse and lie was given food enough to last him a Week,

His "true::" had been stored in the rear end of a wagon owned by another, and his going simply decreased the strength of the party one man. As he was ready to ride away the captain kindly said: "It's hard lines, Taylor, but its the I law we all live by. Harkins had the right to shoot you tho minute ho entered tho camp." "Yes, 1 reckon he had, though he made a big mistake in accusing me." "1 hope you'll keep clear of Indians and meet with good luck." J: "And I!"

And I!" And I!" Even Harkins echoed the sentiment, and with a wave of his hand Taylor was off. He rode straight up the valley, and as he went he smiled grimly and chuckled to himself: "It's your turn this morning. Tomorrow it may bo mine. Yesterday 1 thought 1 had to kill but one. Today I'm planning to wipe out the whole pack. Not one of you shall leave this valley alive!"

Half a mile to the east a bend in the valley hid him from view. He rode on for about a mile, and then discovering a small valley leading off at right angles he entered it, followed it up for forty rods and then dismounted and prepared to camp. "As for Indians," ho mused, as he looked about him, "1 don't think there are any left in the hills. They luivo all gone forward to fight off tho rush, and before summer is over tho rush will have carried every redskin out of the locality."

Only two ways to run a business—a right and a wrong way—years of success, of progress, convinces us that this is the right way ment manager has his orders, every salesman and saleslady will he alert, every price is a trade winner.

"Make flay While the Sun Shines," Is a maxim to be applied with peculiar force to the dry goods business. But ''hay making" time is passed— now is Clearing Out time—and for the balance of the season 15 per cent. 2u per cent. 25 per cent and even f»u per cent will drop from the prices of every article in all our departments. Our patrons will buy cheaply. Our stock will be reduced. The object desired— turning merchandise into cash—will be accomplished.
