THE MAIE

PArER

FOR

Lester Hamley took a few quick turns upon tbe deck, and then came back to Mabel's side. •Nothing shall stand in the way of executing your full wishes,' he said 'I will have the men bring out the boat, and we will take to it at once.' 'Not any of the men, father. Let no one know of our departure you and Flip can manage the boat alone.' •I must tell the captain, for we wlll_ Boou be missed, and—' 'Certainly,' Mabel interrupted, 'the captain should know, but not the mate, for be was in conversation with the strange visitor as if they had met before, and our present stranded condition may be owing to some understanding between them you know also it was he who went out to meet the Indian envoy to-night'

Lester Hamley ground his teeth to getber until bis face was blackened, and clenched his fl with such power as to imbed the ut:is Into the palms of bis bands. •If I knew that to be true, my child,' •I would blow the heads off the fiends before another tive minute* could pass. My Ood, this Is too much!' 'Do not delay, father,' tbe girl entreated. 'It is very dark now, and tbe moon will be up iri 'an bour. Go tell the captain, and then let us to tbe boat.'

A few minutes later Hamley came back, and with bim was the captain. lie fully agreed with tbe plan of escape, yet knowing nothing of the real reason which had determined tbe party upon tbe attempt to evade the Indians.

Flip was called, aud, after Captain Peros had sent all hands to the prow on some duty, the three men lifted the light canoe from the wagon, and, with ropes, lowered it silently to tbe water. ft was very dark, so dark, indeed, that the flgare of a man could not be disoovered ten feet away, and no light was at the stern of t»e boat. Our friends were confident of getting away unobserved.

No demonstrations bad been made by tbe Indiana. Tbat they were still near no one for a moment doubted, but tbe manner of attack was yet to be learned. Not tho murmur of a voice had be$n heard not the dip of a paddle bad come to the whites all was silent save the tread of men upon tbe steamer's dockn' •My rifle, father, and the iron tube,' Mabel whispered, as Hamley took her arm to aid her into the little craft below, 'they mu:t go where we do.' •Flip has both,' the father returned, 'I have seen to everything wo will be well armed and supplied with provisions until it will be safe to come back again.'

Mabel was landed safely in the canoe, followed by Flip the fatber, after press ing the hand of the captain, and exchanging a few words as to their movements, stepped over the side of the steamer and disappeared. The captain had hold of the ropes which stayed tbe canoe, and was waiting for the signal for him to let her loose, wbeu the face of Hamley appeared above the railing again, and in a husky voice came the words: 'The canoe is not there! Mabel is gone!'

Without attempting reply, the captain drew in on the ropes he held, and the resistance was only the heft of tbe strands. Sure enough, the canoe was gone with Its living freightage. The ropes had been severed with a sharp knife!

CHAPTER V.

THE BOATMAN'8 TRKACHERY.

When Lester Hamley reached the deck of tbe steamer he trembled like an aspen leaf.

A multitude of thoughts of the most terrible character came Hooding on bis mind. 'What had become of the child? Why had not either Mabel or Flip cried out in alarm, and why had not tbe negro boy used tbe rifle or revolver which be carried

There was a mystery about it all, and the anxious silent questioner was left for an answer to his own imaginings.

Not a word had been spoken aloud, either by the girl or young African, after thoy reached the canoe not the sound of a paddle bad been heard, and how they could have been spirited away so silently was a wonder to Captain Peros, who stood close to the stricken father, peering into his pallid face sym pathetically.

It was useless to speculate. Both men realised this, as there was no chance for questioning foul play. Tbe ropes had been cut with some sharp instrument,and tho canoe with its freightage was gone.

For half a moment the two men stood gating into each other's eyes in mute astonishment, but finally, as if recovering his senses, Hamley broke tbe silence by saying: 'Captain, I must have a small boat to follow my child, and I must depart at once.' •Such a move will be foolhardv just at this time, Mr. Hamley,' the skipper returned kindly, 'for you must know that the enemy is upon the water all alout us, and you will, by going out, full as easy a prey to them as nas your—'

The fatber checked tbe words by lifting his hand as a plea for no more objections. 'Do you suppose, Captain Peros,' he •aid, hotly, 'that 1 will remain here while my child is in peril? *If you will not aid me by the use of a boat, I shall be compelled to swim to tbe shore toget out of thlstbraldoiEi.' 'Such a course could avail you nothing. If your daughter is in tbe bands of the enemy, wl\ich I have no reason to doubt is tbe case, the Indians will in all probability keep to tbe river until tbey reach their village so what can you do upon the land?' 'Do, Captain: I must and will do something. I cannot remain boxed up here. You can aid me if you will. If you have a child your beart will compel you to do so. My girl Is all to me of life—all 1 have to live for and love without her existence is empty, -worthless, tilve me the boat, Captain ros, for God's sake do not refuse me this again!'

There was a look in tbe rigid, white face, an appeal in tbe glowing eyes of the stricken father, as the two men stood so close together upon the shadow-wrapped deck, tbat the commander oonld not longer resist. 'You shall have tbe boat, Hamley, and a man to go with you. You are right, I see it now. I would.do tbe same were

from Sixth Page.]

'Tben you believe tbat rascal has bribed the Sioux Into an attempt toeapture you and bear yon away?' 'I fear tbat it may be so, father, for Captain Peros ha9 said be oonld not account for the strange movement tonight. as Long Trail and his men are friendly to hiin, and heretofore have dealt openly and fairly with bim

one so dear to me snatched away by ruthless cut throats. My refusal at first was not through heartlesaness, but I felt that tbe undertaking was of the most, hazardous uature. I yield because you are insane in your love It may be best that I do. Heaven knowa I hope BO.'

Hamley pressed the captain's hand in silence. 'Unas,' called tbe oominander, 'this way.'

In a few seconds the mate answered lb person. 'Hasten and arm yourself for a cruise In a small boat upon tbe river with this gentleman and—' 'Not that man!' Hamley whispered excitedly in tbe captain's ear 'not that man—any one bat him!'

Tno mate heard the words, and turned with a flush upon his fac« and an oath upon his lips, but Captain Peros demanded silence, and then ordered bim away. •Send a good man at once, well armed, and see tbat there is no delay,' continued tbe skipper but the mate did not appear inclined to move. Stepping to bis side, the captain whispered: 'Tbe man is halt Insane about his daughter have no words with him.'

With a surly growl and muttered curses tbe dark faoed, vlliaiuous mate loft tbe stern of tbe steamer as ordered. 'This singular caprice needs an explanation, Mr. Hamley,' tbe officer said, as soon as the mate bad gone. 'And it will be freely given,' was the quick answer. 'I have no prejudices further than tbat wan whom you call Linas. He Is a traitor to you and a villain to the full extent of the term. That man, I bare good reason to believe, is in league with the prowling enemy about us to-night, end it was through his agency tbat the boat was rim aground upon this bar.' 'Your words are an enigma to me, sir,' tbe captain put in, with a shake of the bead and a look into tbe speaker's face as if he really did think him insane. 'Give your reasons for such suspicions, if you please.'

Then Hamley told the commander all that he bad learned from Mabel. Of Vican and hisnath to possess tho girl: of the desperado's confederate meeting and holding consultations with the mate of Vican and his preceding them up the river, of the mate's offering his services to go out and meet the Indian envoy, and his indefinite report of the conference. 'It may be true,' tbe captain said, musingly, 'but, if you have known or suspected mischief, why have you not informed me of it before, so that the man might have been watched 'I was not aware of it myself until a few minutes ago, Mr. Peros. Mabel, knowing my impulsive nature, and fearing an outbreak, kept the secret to herself and Flip, the negro boy who has olaved tbe spy for her.' •1 see,' the captain said, with a nod, 'and the more I think of tbe matter tbe more certain I am tbat there is something wrong. I know but little «f Linas, as thisis bis first trip with me for several yoars, but I will know more, and if I find ho bad a hand in this work, depend upon it he will lose bh life as a penalty.'

The father of Mabel would have added more to his words of suspicion, but just then a boatman came aft, a burly fellow with a slouched bat, and announced himself leady to do the bidding of tbe oommander. 'You are to accompany this man in the small boat, in search of his daughter, who has been stolen by the Indians. He will give you particulars. Are you well armed?' 'Yes, andlready.' 'Then to the boat at once.' No delay was made. The boat was quickly lowered and within ten minutes of the discovery of Mabel's abduction tbe two men rowed out into the darkness upon the sluggish river.

Tbe boatmen took bis seat at the oars as if it was tbe proper place for him, and after driving the craft noiselessly out a hundred vards from the steamer be stopped and "asked Hamley if he had any idea as to where he wished to go.

Until the question was put the man did not, indeed, realize that be was afloat without the slightest ide* as to what course he would take. All was quiet on every hand. 'I only know,' he replied to the boatman's question 'that my daughter has been stolen from me and I must be at work in some way to keep from becoming frantic with suspense. Your judgment will doubtles be much better than mine as to tbe direction the captors would tak*.' 'They will te likely to go to their stronghold*' tbe man at tbe oars answered. 'In what direction is the Indian village?' 'Downstream.' •I thought it above.' 'No, below.' •Then pull In that direction.'

Tbe boat was turned with tbe current, and while tbe boatman pulled at tbe oars the other peered into the shadows on either stide, hoping to discover some signs of life.

It would really have been a relief to Hamley could he have discovered a Sioux, or a dozen of them, gliding about upon the river, but nothing but the dark water met his view, as far as the eye could penetrate tbe gloom. •Thirty minutes passed, and, for the first time, Mr. Hamley turned bis attention to the man who bad come out as his companion. Ho noticed that tbe progress of tbe boat was not as rapid as the apparentefiortof the oarsman would indicate.

Tho idea of treachery did not at first enter his mind, and he urged the man to more effective effort.

Another half boar passed, and Mr. Hamloy noticed tbat, alternately, tbe high bluff* on either side of tbe river came dimly into view. The oarsman was crossing and recreate!ng the water course, and not going down tbe stream fast than tho slow current would carry th«nn.

A suspicion was awakened tbat ail wa* not rigbt. 'I will t*kft tbe Otis for a white,' be said, 'and spell jou. A good hour's effort must be wearisome.' •As you like,' the boatman mattered, in a gruff way, as he arose to give Hamley tbe seat which be bad been occupying.

It was necessary for tbe two men to pass each other. The boatman kept his face averted and bis slouch bat

well

drawn, but a sodden lurch of the light craft, produced

for

man

a purpose, caused tbe

furn, to save himself from fall

ing, and Hamley peered dirwtly Into bis face, then started back with the exclamation: 'Unas, tho.mate!'

Yes, Linas tbe mite the man you Insulted and bio wad on tonight. I'm here to git even with ye,' he answered with an oath. •You area contemptible villain. You have led my child into tbe hands of fiends of your own kind, and now would thwart my efforts,' Hamley cried, drawing a revolver from bis pocket, in bis anger hardly knowing what he did. 'None of tbat, ye thin skinned sucker, erl'll make food for fishes on ye.'

With the words be dealt tbe man before bim saoh a terrific blow with his

great, horny fiat as to fell bim to tbe out torn of the bont. 'I don't know but I killed the idiot,' Linas reflected, when ho saw that tbe prostrate man did not move. 'I didn't intend to punoh the life out on him but, blast eyes, be musn't draw cold Iron on tliS/= ioy.'

He stood looking at the inanimate form for a few seconds, and then oontinued bia soliloquy: 'I mu*t manage to keep bim out of tbe way at present. As I shan't go back to the boat, I'll hive no report to mike. Viuan will chalk up enough to set me all right, .I'll out ot this, and leave hi™ in.'

With those words be drew a strong cord from bis pooket and proceeded to bind firr-nly the hands and feet of the stricken man, and then rowed to the shore.

When he reached the sands of tbe bank, Liuas stepped out, and throwing the oars into a clump of willows pushed tbe boat out into tbe river until be bad waded into the water waist deep, then giving it a push with all bis might, be sent tbe light craft still further on, and as the current moved It slowly away, Linas waded back to the gravelly shore, chuckling over his work with a demoniac satisfaction. Next week The Mail will continue the story of tbe adventures of this Iowa family and their friends. It will be found to be a story of absorbing interest to the end.
