CHAPTER V.

TIT HTUAWIK MBH8AOK.

The wolvos that had been howling and loaplng into the air no vigorously, beneath the tree upon which was perched Jonathan Claver and bis wifo began to slink away, one after another, as the torch bearer* drew nearer.

A few of tho hungry quadruped*, bolder than the othors, remained and faced the gleaming lights for a time, but they slowly backed up at last showing thefr long white teeth an they retrootod.

Presently a shower of arrow« cut the air, piercing the fioah of tho doge of tho woods, and changing their prolonged latrations to yeipa and snarls of pain.

Five minute* after tho lirat appearance of tiM) flaming brands, ana not a wolf waa to be aoou or hoard.

An ononiy now stood beneath tiio tree that waa to "be d'readod a thousand times more tiian tho Urst.

Tho couple Hat silently looking down upon tho flitting forma as thoy dodged here and there, holding up their torches to enable them to get a view of the game that the wolves had treod.

The Htrong lights near tho faces of tlie savages prevented their seeing far above their heads, and not satistled with the effort, they very aoon adopted a new plan of proeeduro.

Stout bundles of faggots wero lighted and when in a full blaxe wore taken upon a stick and hurled upward. Some or those enmo close to the fugitives and revealed their fncos, which called out exelainatiouaof satisfaction and pleasure from the red men.

After examining the tree, and finding that Its branches were not HO interwoven with other* a* to allow the victims to leave their prceont position, tho lowas contented themsolves with leaving matter* as they were, and liegan preparations for Hnlahing tho night there without calling tho frontiersman ntfd his companion down.

Dry twigs were gathered and lighted, and upon these dead wood piled until the forestlor rods around waa illuminated to the brilliance of day. The purpoeo of this was to koop the wolvos at a distance while tho ml men slept.

The (Ire WM lieneath the branches which sustained our friends, and the Indians after sitting in council laid themselves down in a circle about the tree.

The entire posse did not make preparations for rest, two braves stationed themselves at tho roots of the trunks to make a certainty doubly sure. It would l»e impossible for tho white* to descend, or even attemnt such a thing without detection, while the wakeful guards were stationed there.

As the Hloux are to-day, so were the Iowa* a century ago, for loth factions were and are of the Dakota tribe. The Sioux smear tho lower jwrt of their faces with black when they go to war, and the I owns blackened tMr noses with wet powder, charcoal or lampblack, when they lifted the tomahawk and scalpingknife for death work.

They wero so proud of their superior skill, their artfulness and bravery-that they called themselves I*ahwn—"lhisty Nose—to be distinctly separated from the other trlles who had different customs tm to face-painting, when upon tt»© wartrail.

The ('lavers had noticed the peculiar marking—the black nose of the to was— when tlwv first caught glimpse!* of thair far**, anti knew that no entreaty vrouW avail and no merry lie shown.

The old frontier-man did not. however, t|itall when riewlug the prospect l»efore Win. In the veteran's oyt there jwas a ylow* of intrepid light, and he hwd his gun with a Arm grasp. ••They are certain of tta, Margaret, and prefer to hold us as prisoners" here till morning, to calling us down and guarding ua below,n he sahl, as the savages laid themselves down to rest after the night's chase.

I delays in the hours of danger are tho wife precious momenta, Jonathan answered, '*1 can seeuo chance for escape. and cannot reasonably expect any aki untens it comes from the One who hies the events of life, but so long as reath remains, hope will live," "I shall not die without an effort to nave mv life." Claver returned strongly.

quietly, "but I would ao much like know of the welfare of my children before the final moment come**. The enemy are abroad, every settler's cabin sinking to ashes, every soul of the forest homes Deing sent to the long account, and Leaping Panther cannot protect the dear ones against the hosts of nends who roam the"wooda." »We are all in the hands of the Providence you have always looked to in faith. Margaret, and it is as reasonable to believe them safe, as that our children are victims of the red fiends. This is the hour in which we must be firm, hopeful and brave."

The pioneer father knew that words contained but little consolation, for there was little left to them from which to draw solace. He spoke as reason dictated, without muoh feeling of hope for the preservation of his family.

For an hour the couple exchanged thoughts and then lapsed into silence. The Indians showed no signs of life exopting that now and then ono of tho guards would throw a little wood into the tire to keep up the flame*. No signs of the wolves were manifest, further than a lonesome howl here and there from far away in the deep woods. The order from the chief had been, to not let the fire die down, and the command was faithfully executed.

The night had well worn on When Claver aroused from an apparent lethargv and touching the arm of his wife to attract her attention he whisperod*

Margaret, were I alone and my wound did not cripple me, I would make a strike for freedom before the savages awake." "In what way?"

I would drop down upon the head of one of the guards, strike the other to the earth, then plunge for Jack, who is fastened- but a fow rods away, and fly no redskin could catch him.' I "Then if vou see a chance for escape, make the attempt. As no bones were fractured by the injury you received, yon can uso the limb, and your going will not make my position any the worse, indeed there will be a better chance for me. for a greater portion will pursue you if you get away, and my execution will doubtless be delayed until tho warriors return from the cnase^and that delay may in tho turn of uflairs bring us aid."

Tho expressed thought of Jonathan Claver was without purpose at first, but tho ready approval of the matron, and tho logical argument in Its favor, set him to thinking of the plan in dead earnest. Tho result might have been to carry out the project after due deliberation, but a sudden turn in affairs directed thoughts in a different channel altogether.

Suddenly there came a peculiar sound as if a bush had been whisked past their faces, followed by a "sput," that made them both start and look about them for the cause of tho strange noise.

Nothing was to bo seen. Tho Indians were all in their places and the guards evidently had not heard the peculiar sound, or, if they had, gave it no atten-

All became still again, but tho couple not satisfied in seeing no cause or result of tho mysterious sound.

They sat breathlessly still for a repetition, but there was no second mnnisfestation. v. "It might have been a frightened bird, that in its wild flight passed between our faces and hit tho tree," Mrs. Claver suggested as a solution to tho problem. "Not that, Margaret, a bird might have produced the whisking sound, but no bird could strike like that. It was as if steel had struck after lightning flight. "And you *onsider it ominous, Jonatliati?" "I think nothing definitely, for I do not know what to think, buttherowould be some relief in knowing the agency. If it should

The man did not finish tho expression of thought ho had in mind while speaking ho had boon glancing above and around, and suddenly putting up his hand he grasped an arrow, the flinty point of which was bedded partly into the tree, and wrenched it from its hold.

Husband and wife sat for several seconds gazing into each other's faces in astonishment* Quorios of overy description passed through their minds in that

"Homoone of tho warriors below has determined upon being our executioner, aud sent asnaft unbeknown to the chief think you not.so, Jonathan?" "That cannot lie tho caso, for this arrow surclv did not oomo from down below it came from oven a higher jxisition than we occupy, for it stood a horizontal |osition when drew It from the tree.*' twti&f. "t what make is it?" "Delaware, I think."

He began an examination of the stick and Hint, and the next instant gave expression to a low word of surprise.

Close behind tho arrow-head, bound to the rod with tine sinew, was a pieco of white, flexible bark. Hastily untying the st ring, the fibrous strip was loosened «ud found tf» contain a few English wirHs, written v, coal in large letters.

The firelight shone up to the anxious fugitives with sufficient power to enable them to read the words: "(buraflff/rwMl*, 'Flaming Arrow' is

cbwigecame over tho" features of Jonathan and Margaret Claver as they rend tile words upon the llttjlr strip of bark.

If Phunihg Arrow really there, thev felt that a host had oomo to. th«*ir aid*ln this one unseen personage.

No name was more dreaded ly the Indians than this, for through sttp^8t|tlous feant, the red men Itadtome to believe that Flaming Arrow was some surnatnml being, and that a certain fatality fell upon anv of their tribes if the wonderful power iflsplayed was resisted. tt was the knowledge' of these facto—. for the pioneers had hoard much of Flamming Arrow, the fbrest terror—that illuminated their faces with bopesand thanksgiving.

The light still glowed beneath them, the warriors still slept, and the guards kept vigil, but the fugitives did not look upon these now an their destroyers, yet they could not conjecture what wn to follow.

The conversation that had been held between the party in the tree, had been so loud and earnest that it attracted the attention of those who wero acting as sentinel*.

Thev arose, made a circuit around the trunk of the oak, and then as if satisfied that all was well, anted themsetvea again close together upon the root* of the tim

Husband and wife watched and waited in profound silence. But a few minutes pamed after the strange message had been examined, before a commotion took tOaoe in camp. Huddenly there tell at the feet of the guard* a dead screech-owl, as if coming out of the trtv above them, or thedtaar •kv beyond. the two mm *f**ng to their feet .is soon as thev found out what had so *ndrienly appeared to them, for It waa an ill «»mro among thr towas to have a fewu ird fall at ttielr shtew awl paftira* UUT N 'F ti w»« the little«wl.

struck, questioning whether to awaken their comrades or not, another dead bird, a pigeon, fell upon the earth dose to their feet. This was too much for the red man's credulity, and the chief was aroused, and then the whole posse was called up.

They grouped together beneath the tree

and

learned from the guards what

had happened. It was evidently believed that the strange occurrence was attributable to the wise man and woman above them, and they were about to call them down, when a third bird fell at the same spot, but it came from a direction that proved the fallacy of their first opinion.

The attention of the braves was now attracted from their intended victims, and they began peering out into the •darkness beyond the power of thefiames to illumatc, as if some cause fort he phenomenon would be visible.

In couples or trios the black-nosed warriors bulked out and made short circuits, then returned to the spot -where the chief stood.

They Were mystified and intimidated. Had a doaen of their white enemies come upon them, they would not have been half so much alarmed at what they considered the most terrible omens of evil that could be sent the IoWas.

They gabbled in an incoherent manner as*they moved about in a space covering but a few rods of ground, each filled with too much superstitious fear to go alone.

Not more than two minutes passed after the falling of the tliird dead bird before there came a bright glow of light, as if the will-o-the-wisp had appeared traveling toward them, and along, trailing, hissing flame of tire swept over their heads, disappearing in the deep woods beyond.

The savages dropped upon the earth awe-stricken, and trembled, as only the red man will when he feels that he is dealing with the supernatural. "It is Flaming Arrow, the avenging warrier of the Great Spirit," the chief cried. "We have displeased the One who makes the great noise in the clouds, and sends down the long lines of fire out of them with rain and

A dull report'as if from some half charged firearm, silenced the sachem, and following the detonation, came another flaming object whiz/ing through the woods, but a few feet above the warriors' heads.

The chief sprang to his feet as if he had divined the cause of the displeasure, and he cried out: "Tho whito enemy has been allowed to live too long the Great Spirit is displeased with the red man who is made to rule the woodland, and when the enemy has been slain, the Flaming Arrow will be satisfied and go away again. Let them fall as our braves have been made to tall."

Promptly with the order of the chief, two warriors sprang up and ran out several rods from the trunk of the tree which supported our friends, and with the hammers of their guns set, lifted the weapons to fire.

P& CHAPTER VI. ,'Jj •K Z: SHOT AT LAST. With the motion there came the crack of a brace of rifles, and two streams of Are belched out from amid tho verdant boughs of the young oak, and the warriors fell prone in their tracks.

At this the whole posse sprang to their feet with tho purpose of pouring a shower of bullets into tho tree whore the enemy was perched, but just then the third strange, flaming messenger came hissing like a serpent close to the faces of the braves, and they turned and fled in constornation. "Now, Margaret, now or never!" Jonathan Claver cried, slippping down from the tree. "Tho demons will soon recover from their fright and return Jack has been left to us." "Not half a minute passed before the couple were upon the ground, and tliey hastened toward the horse that had been held by a lariat a little way ootside of the camp.

The animal had been so frightened bypassing lights that he was restless ana norvous, and it required a little delay spent in quieting him down, before he eould be made to stand still until Mrs. Claver could be lifted to a position upon his hack.

As soon as the matron was firmly seated, the fastening was loosened, the bridle reins placed in her hands, and then the old frontiersman attempted to mount.

He did not succeed in the first attempt, ami before he could gather himself for second effort, a savage rushed out of tho darkness with a tomahawk uplifted for a fatal blow, but with his visible movement came a stream of glowing fire from the right, and before he could change his course, the burning object struck him full in the face, and hurled him to tiro

earth*

Jack sprang away as if shot from a cannon. The strength of tho sturdy woman upon his back had no effect whatever upon the large bit, and fearing that she would be swept from the animal's back by the low branches of tree®, Mrs. Claver clasped her arms about the horae'a neck, laid her face close to his mane, and was borne on and on with terrific speed through the great, gloomy forest.

Jonathan Claver stood a seconds bewildered in thought. So much had transpired in an instant, that his bmin eould not comprehend it all at single flash of

gVowing missile that had stricken the foe who was just in the ftct of burying a towahawk in his head, had blinded, his eves, and at tho same time the dashing of horse's feet told him that be was left alone. .... ,.

What should he do? What would become of his dear companion, and who was the unknown friend? Would ho see the strange personage now, and would the lowas fall upon him after their fright?

All these queries went with the speed of electrical light through the man's mind, and a confusion followed in tiring to determine what the answers would

lie stood not long however. His mind was soon made up to act, and there was but one wav for him to move. He would go in the direction the horse bad taken, and perhaps circumstances would bring Jack and his rider under his protecting care again.

Through the remaining hours of darkness, Jonathan Claver put many miles between himself and the spot where he had been cornered by wild beasts and men.

Nothing was heard of the foe, and no indications showed that Flaming Arrow had kept guard over him.

He did not stop to rest until the crimson glow in the east showed that the sun was nearing the horison, and it would soon be light, and then ha paused for a few minutes.

When he arose to move on, a gradually sloping hillside was visible, which stretched away to the southward, covered with heavy timber, but clear of underbrush.

It was a charming picture in the mellow morning light. A reddish-brown carpet lay over the grand incline, and beech, maple and chestnut trees, were set as is planted by the hand of a landscape gardener.

The woodman had scarcely ever seen a spot in the forest so supremely grand as tnis, and he stayed his steps for a little time to feast upon the landscape.

The spell that had come upon him was suddenly broken the crackling of a twig brought back all the alarm that had hastened his steps before, and glancing quickly over his shoulder he caught a glimpse of a feathered head just as it was disappearing behind the trunk of a

Setting the hammer of his rifle, he waited for a reappearance of the topknot, und while doing this, his quick and well practiced eye caught sight of a dozen or more flitting objects in different sections, behind, at the right and the left. "They have followed me," he muttered in a troubled wavy "and I am not in the most favorable position to battle them."

To remain where he was would besuro death, and to attempt to fly would be apparently useless, but resolving to act so long as there was life left in lus body, he took to hisheels and by a zigzag movement began ascending the hilt he had gazed upon a minute before with so much pleasure.

One or two shots were tired after him in quick succession but without effect, then the wood was awakened by terrific yells and the whole force that had left the camp alive, went bounding after the fugutive.

The frontiersman stopped as he approached the crown of the hill, and fired hastily at one of the savages, but his aim was uncertain, and no benefit resulted herefrom

The incline beyond the crown was steep, and but a few rods in extent terminating at tho margin of a flowing stream.

A ray of hopo came to the fugutive's heart as he saw this, but he was not destined to reach the murmuring river, for just as he took the first stop downward, a rifle shdt rang out on tho morning air, and Jonathan Claver, dropping his gun and throwing his arms into the air, fell heavily to the earth, and rolled down tho sharp Inclinp until near the bank of tho stream, when he disappeared instantaneously.

The savages hastened on. Several of them saw the body roll away, but when search was made no trace of it was to be

The water course was examined, and every place that it was possible for tho body to lie secreted, and the mystery was not unraveled.

All of the Indians who had como did not remain to take part in the search for they had found another object to pursue."

Almost simultaneous with the report the red man's rifle and the fall of the fugitive, thorecame a wild and pioreing shriek, a female voice full of anguish and terror.
