I *Tbo duty was a dangero as one, pat the nan selected to preform it had faced danger, and even death, too often among Eastern criminals to hesitate a monent ind so it happened that, bpon a certain tzy September evening. Densmore, 'kguised as a Dutch peddler, drodped rom the western-bound train on the fKaosaa Pacific railroad at the little station of Black Wolf, in Kansas. ^or a moment he gazed after the railing earn, ^hen turned, and in broken

"I vaa votyou call sbdranger mid dis *rt of do gountrv," said the peddler, ..Milling, "Cut a friendt or mine up de river, he way'go down to Vildvoot Tavsrn, and vou soldt lots of goot* in dot 'jountry.'' "Wall, DuU-hy, I don't reckon yer'll lo much trade, but I kit tell ye the road, t'f yer golnV

So saying, the rough Weaterner gave he necessary directions, and in the loaining Donsniore disappeared. "I'll try every houao from here to rVildwood, muttered lie, when out of lenring, "but I'll find Priced. That's he name—Price. And when that's ound, look out! If I can capture Dick 'rioo my fortune will be made. ,/At nine o'clock Carl—for so he called rnself— sought shelter at a settler's •bin by the roadnido, and paid for sup'or, lodging and breakfeat with gaudy 'iHCC.

At noon ho paused again to eat and trado, and still again many times during 'be afternoon.

Ilefore night he had hoard the name of fl'rloo, and beforo night, too, several IploooH of counterfeit coin had been pas»d upon 4lim.

Ho wa« nearlng his gam«. It was a littlu after sundown, and vlth weary troad Densmotr* was -climbing up a long hill where the straggling [road was fringed with buthea and weoda.

"Dose vas a nice noight." oki "Yea, sir," said the youth, looking at lint Hharily. "Where are yon going?" "Me go in Oh, I vot goin' to sell do ng* in mine pack. I vv» coin' to get

A h! dot vns a goot poy," said Dulcliy, adly. "Dot vas nloo und 1 get some upper, too: don't it?" "I rockon," replied tho boy.

He-shouldering his pack, the two conjiiued to follow tho road, the youth loading, until, half a mile further on a cabin speared. ''Here's jny house," said the guide,

Then, with a resolution to succeed or irlsh, he slowly moved toward the tor. As he raised his baud to knock, it was Uddonly opened. A heavily-built, »(\a\ily-ix*niod woodsman stood befora kitn—a man with skill aud winning in [is ft»c«, and a desperate, threatening turajre in hia eyes—a devil to dare, a iantto Lxn the peddler, shading [rch he held with one nrawny band, bile his piercing glance searched Denstore's face. "What d'ye want?" »*You vas de leetle boy's pa? Dot vas l\yt. I vant sometings to oat and somengs to sletp. Dee leetla poy «Ud so." Vnd with simple naturiUness, Carl ushed aalde the mighty doorman, enjwi tlu cabin, threw hia pack upon ne floor, and with a aigh of relief dropinto a low bench uear the lire. "Ah! [ot vas goi*!."

"Wall, I recked yeoouldgit it," said Price, resuming bis pipe. "I heard a feller say to-day that char war lota o' it AVArtnil

One-half! You mean two tollars for vone? Py schimminy! I vill give two hundred tollsrs for four, an' got myself rich!" cried the peddler.

Price smiled. "But how kin ye pay for it?" "Neffer mind. I know," said Carl, winking slyly. "Show me de fellow what's gotii to sell, und I pay him mit it."

A moment's consultation with the woman, and then Price called the peddler to follow. Carl picked up his pack and climbed the ladder that lea into the loft. There was a shake-down on the floor. "Thar! It's not the finest bed-rooan in the world, but ye'il sleep," said Price. "Good-night." "Goot-night," returned Carl.

Tho other disappeared.' Densmore heaved a sigh. *i "It's hard work playing Dutch," he mnttered.

Then he opened bis pack, and from it drew forth two heavy revolvers, a bowie knifo, three pairs of liandcnflfe, and the star of the United States sopjrot service. "I may have work before morning," thought he, "and these are good bed-iel-

candle, and lay down, his mind bu^y with the events of the day and in forming somo plan for the morrow.

Whno thus engaged, tho soiwd of a door stoalthlly opened attracted kis attention, and a moment lator Ire heard voices below. Quietly leaving his bed, he crept to a knot-holo in the floor and lis tened.

.•

"But the peddlor?" viiO'J It was tho woman's voice. "Never mind him," replied Priee. "Ned," ho continued, apparently ad dressing tho now comer, we'vo a customer sleeping up stairs—a Dutch peddlor —and ho wants four hundrod. I'll bring him to ye in the morning, I repkon lio'll buy-—"

Tho door openod a socond time. Pressing hi.s fnco close to tho floor, Densmoro found that he could both see and hear. Tlweo sharp-looking, roughly-droasod men ontorcd. "Ha! all hero," aaid Prico, In a low tono. "That's good. I want half a thousand o'tho ouoer to-night, for we kin solid to tho Tavorn to-morrow, and tho peddler wants somo. Did ye bring the dies. Bray?"

The man Prico addressed shook his bead. "I liavon't been homo yet, Dick I jest come In from Elkhorn. Send Net tie. My old woutAn will give 'om to her."

Price turned to the girl. "Are you afraid to go, Net?" "Afraid?" She laughed and touched her bosom, junt drawing the butt of a

istol into sight. "Afraid? Yo know nor that, Dick." "Wall, thon, my gal, if ye go to Bray's an' git tho dies, it will help us for,"while the boys are coming, I will stay on watch ana mill the hundred we ran yesterday. Ye'll lx back here in an hour." "Yes, doar."

And throwing a cloak about her, and putting ou a hood, tho girl carefully oitonedthe door and disappeared Into tho night.

Prico turned to the gang. "Boys, go below, lire ur, and prepare the rest orthe metal. I'll stay here, an' when Net comes with the dies we'll begin to coin. I want a full load to-night, for we're almost out. Hero, give mo a lift."

As Price coased speaking, he seised a heavy iron har and thrust in beneath the hearthstone. The others joined hands with him, and with a desperate effort, the five slowly raised the great stone.'

Beneath it appeared a door, secured by long iron bolts. These being shot, and tho trap raised, a flight of steps was seen.

The four strangers descended, one carrying a lantern, and Price dropped the door. behind them. Then, opening a sort of hidden closet, he drew from it a box of rough silver coin and a milling machine, with which he began to work.

Densmore breathed hard. "Trapped!" he whispered—"trapped! The gang is complete, and now for the work!"

Koiselcwsly he arose and approached the ladder. In either pocket were his pistols, in his bands a pair of bracelets, on bis breast a star.

At the top of the ladder he paused, struck his foot against the floor, and coughed. There was a quick movement

"Mr. Brice! Mr. Brine! Vas yon dero?" A half growl from below answered him.

What do you want?" "I vassick*. Mr. Price—I was so hot as neffer vas! I vant a leetle vater, If you please, Mr. Brioe." "What—" then cameanaath. "lie still, ye Dutch fool, and I'll bring ye water. Dont come here." "Oh, no, Mr. Brice! But bring vater, Mr. 'Brice, for God's sake! I vas nursed alifel"

There was a moving about the room, a patter of dipper and pall, and then Price the ladder. Densmore bnaUi-

approached edhard. tl

The steps came nearer, nearer

they monnted the ladder. He crouched, waiting. An Instant mora, and the bearded face of Dick Price appeared above the opening ia the floor, and his fight hand was raised, holding a |«p of

wrist of the coiner, and at the same moment, the muzzle of a heavy Colt's revolver pressed against his forehead, and the voice of the detective hissed in his ear: "Not a sound, or 111 kill yon! Up with your other hand."

The man was fairly caught and he knew it! The color fled from his bronzed taoe, leaving it ashen-hued a cold sweat gathered in beads upon his brow the prison doors yawned before him, but one glance into the deep eyes of the detective was enough, and with a shudder and a groan ne allowed the handcuffs to be clasped about his other wrist. "And now go down withoqt noise, too," said Densmore, "or—"

Pi iee obeyed and as he turned upon the floor below, the detective was at hia side. "Sit there," and he pointed toward the table, "with your back toward the door."

Again the coiner obeyed, bowing his bead upon his hands. Then Densmore crept to the trap, closed it and ahot the heavy bolts.

Without raising his head, Price whispered: ,*

But there was no struggle. With nerves tense as steel,- Carl levelled his heavy weapons, ono at each of the figures "before him, and in low, cool tones, said:

Up with your hands! In the name of the National Government I arrest you as counterfeiters! Quick!

The last word was addressed to the woman, for in her eye, too, a dangerous light gleamed but, before the detective could stay her, the pistol was turned, there rang out a sharp report, and from her side there welled the bright blood, splashing the floor, and with a moaning ory she tottered ana fell. Price half catching her in his shackled arms as she sank.

Only once she spoke: \n "Better than a prison, Dick! And to die with you, love."

Thea camo a fluttering fligh, and she

was gone. An hour later, Densmore stood before the United States Commissioner, at Wildwood, and delivered his prisoner, two hours later, a posse of officers secured the others, who were dragged half dead from their.cellar furnace room and thd next day the detective alone stood by the open grave of poor Nettie, "the bravest and prettiest criminal, ho had ever known," he said, and heard thedull sound of the clods as they fell upon her coffln. Then he turned eastward again, his duty done.

The coiners of Kansas wore no more.

"They'll smother." "They must run their changes," replied Densmore, coldly.

So saying, be crept near to the cabin door, and waited. He must have the woman, the spy, the last and best of all the gang.

The moments passed, the hour was drawing to a close, and the deteetive listened with bated breath for his coming vietim, when suddenly, and without a sound, the door opened, and Nettie entered.

As she did so, Densmore stepped forward and would have laid his hand upen her shoulder, but in a single glance the girl oomprehended all, and with a wild shriek sue sprang from him. the dies dropping from her arms as she did so, while Price started from his seat and joined her. And then again the detective found himself facing his enemies, one of them now armed, for the woman had drawn a pistol.
