Follow mo, Carter I've a nnmber one mustang tied up lor you." I obeyed in silent amazement,

Mount, and we'll jog along together. 1 want to let a little daylight into your brains tongue. El spurs into her own horse, she gave mine a auick cut with her whip, and we trottea briskly along toward the open valley. "Woll, I suppose vou are anxious to learn how it is that fan) traveling along in your company once more, eh

I am indeed, for oiy bewilderment Is decidedly unpleasant. "Just so. Isow, don't bother me with anv questions till I am through with my tale. After that, you may do what you please, for I shall leave you. I am mil Martin's scout and decoy. How ho learned of your errand to Wildbush I don't know at any rate, I was sent on to Macro Station with instructions to look out foi^Frank Carter and a bag containing nearly four thousand dollars in gold—that bag," pointing to it, as it lay on the pommel of my Spanish saddle. "If I round yoo—of course I had a description of vour person—I was to keep you in sight until you reached Millcreek, so aa to let Bill know of your arrival. You saved my life and treated me like a gentleman. You recollect offering me that opal ring?

we went through the tunnel,

I repaid your attentions to me by warning you against Bill and his gang. You repay

in turn by scouting my warn

ing, risking your own life ana taking my lover's." Noticing my start, she laughed grimly and said, in a voice that rang with scornful, devil-may-care recKlessne«s, "Don't be afraid I don't want any revenge. Jack never treated ine so well that I should feel forced to avenge his death. Mr. Carter, it is not worth while entering into farther details you can llil up the vacancies. I leave you notir and rising in ber saddle, the girl bent over and kissed me on the cheek. "But, Gert," I exclaimed, holding her arm, "you shall not go!"

What do you want with met" There was a world of pathetic meaning in the downward pose of the .head and the quivering of her long, brown lftflhftUt "Teil me who you are, why it is that yon are Bill Martin* spy and decoy, where you were born—not in this part of the country, I am sure?"

Oh, it is an old, old tale, with new trappings," she said, and a listless, weary look loomed up in the moist

this life has made me rough and savage. I was fifteen, foolish and romantic—he a Western gambler and a villlan. I never get angry when I think of him now that has all passed away." A single tear trembled on the wet lash«s. "lie was soon tired of me and my love, and left me to shift for myself. I grew mad and reckless. Jack saw me at Frisco, and easily persuaded me to accompany him. When I found that be was one of Martin's gang, I did feel a little shocked—frightened. But thai feeling soon wore olF, and I very soon grow to like the adventurous life, and wity,

manners. In fact, the men

all spoke kindly tar me, and at that time the deyll himself could have turned me around his linger with one kind word. I ouee showed my shrewduess by inveigling a wealthy old banker into Bill's house at Duluth. That fixed my flute. I was made decoy-duck and purtnor in common with the rest of the gang."

Cert's pale lips trembled, in splto of her air of defiant bravado and taking her hand in mine, I said, "Oert, whatover you are besides, you are a true, good woman at heart. Come back to the States with me, and God is my witness that I will do my best to make you happy." I would have said more, but •he placed her hand on my lips, and replied, in unsteady accents:

No Carter, it's too late—too late. There's too muoh bad in me now. I should die like a hurt fawn If I were to return home, where every eye would look at me in scornful pitv, where I could not fight off the thoughts that get Into my heaa and heart by a race over the quiet prairies or a brush with the Apaohes. 1 am—"

A sudden burst of toars ohoked her utterance, and before I conld prevent Lor, Gert had dug her spurs Into hor horse and galloped out of sight, leaving me to inodltato alone on this strange specimen of womankind, not without moiBt eyes and an aching heart. I finally reached Wildbush in safety, and gladl}* paid away the three thousand seven hundred and fifty-one dollars that had led inn into such dangerous and romantic adventures. I tiavo since learned that the pony with which poor nally the banker" maltreated by Bill Martin and his associates. However, shall kfcop the animal as souvenir of its donor, and pay the banker what ho shall consider Is ita valna. WM

Extract from a Naples Letter to the Bostou Advertiser.] I could not help feeling rather sorry for our old friend Brlgnoll the other night. Since leaving America he has seemed to find no rest for the sole of his foot in the continental opera houses. At last ho reached Naples—his native

Elaco—and

sarcastic

810

negotiations were begun for

is appearance at Saji Carlo. A subscriber who fcu •rtitnentrfi* letlante, and whose relations to the municipality make him a trustworthy informant. !old mo thnt Brlgnoll was to stag for nothing, and that the subscribers were privately requested to make the best of him aa a Neapolitan who had made a position for himself in the United State*. So the boxes treated him kindly enough, and artpianded an aria which he introduced in the third net, But the general public would not be stilled, and the onera worried itself to an end In the midst of hisae«i and a storm of the Indescrlbly derisive Hooooh's which and Italian audlenoe is sure to pour out upon lackadaisical sentimentality or weak inefficiency, It is but fair to say, however, that the violent disapprobation which followed the great terzetto was not all for Brlguoli'a feebleness, but that the roughness and negligence of the other singers helped to provoke the wrath of the pit. Two nights were quite sufficient to prove that Brlgnoll had best "take up his connections," aa they say at Harvard, and he very discreetly retired from any furthor trial of the patience of his fel-low-citisens, whose comments in tbe lobbies aoa mjTar were too aererely

for me to repeat here. Never

a great singer or a good dedal mer, he acSnifod t« tile to have Allien off grealty in ali but circumstance, since I kcitrd him last, and his attempt to find acceptance with the most exacting audience of San Carlo in my opinion, falls but little abort ol temerity.
