Don't know. We didn't see anyone but the man we bear." The young man sat mute for tM moment. "Come,'* cried Leone "your father will be cared for at the house. We must seek Fliith. She was In the wood but a moment ago."

Ivooue and Kent dashed forward. Faith Worluhd was nowhere to be found. She haiil disappeared as utterly as though the earth had opened and swallowed her up. "What mystery Is this?" cried Kent, coming to halt, and glaring about him in the shadows of the wood, r"Burk Lsiwdor!" "Ay, 'tis Burk Lawder's vile deed! eehowl the youth. "As sure as there a Uod !ti Heaven, that villaiu shall for this night's devilish work, what's this?"

Kout's horse reared back with a snort. The body of a umn lay on the ground at the roots of a tree. It was £11 Cobb.

Leotiu explained in a few words, and as she did so, Keut reached out and grasped her arm. "Leone," he cried, earnestly, "youare the bravest and best woman in the world. Ood bless you for slaying this villain. Perhaps my father may live to bless you also."

When Kent and Leone returned, they found Nathan Wilder at the boardinghouse. He understood medicine and surgery better than most men. He ex amin&ii Worland's wonud, and prnnouueed dangerous, but not necessitrl ly mortal.

When Kent entered, the old pioneer lay white and still on the bed, with his old enemy bending over him. Kent touched Welder's arm. ••Will he die?" he questioned!, huski-

one she hoped to find. A question was trembling of her lips, when a young man rode suddenly upon the scene. It was Kent Worland, pale and excited. "What is the meaning of all this?" he cried hoarsely.

Leone rode to his side. "There has been terrible work here tonight, Kent. Where have you bjeu all this time?" sjje said, quickly. "Down the river, on a fool's errand," be cried, sharply. "This Is Burk Lawder's work, I be lieve," returned Leone. "Where is father, mother and Faith?"

havo a little lovo feast, and I knew you would bo glad to attend." The villain reached forward as If to take her hand, but she shrank back with a shudder of terror.

Don't touch me, murderer!" she cried, remembering the scenes of the night before.

A frown darkened his face. 'You are a simple fool, Faith Worland. You will live to regret that speech. Follow me, if you* would see Judd Palmer."

Mechanically the maiden followed the villain. A few steps brought them to a narrow defile opening through the face of the cliff, extending back a long distance. The creek ran through the gulch its entire length.

Going forward a few rods, they camc to a dump of "cedars. Passing through these, they came upon three men, seated on the ground, eating their breakfast of dried buffalo meat and bread. A few rods distant a man was bound to the trunk of a well-trimmed cedar.

Lawder advanced to the Captive. 5 "I havp brought you a visitor, Judd one who is very anxious to see the sport we are soon to have. Mr. Palmer, Miss Worland and with a mock bow the villain turned aside, leaving the captive^ together.

The meeting between the lovers wan an affecting one, and we will not attempt to describe it. After a few minates Burk Lawder advanced and laid his hand on Faith's arm. "Come," he said, "we've had enough of this. "You are to live with me in future, »o th|!|, man c4t| be nothing to

The maiden was led back to the place where sat the three men. "Come, boys," cried Lawder, "it's time we were «t work. The eonntry will be too hot jo hold us now.' Hurry up the bonfire, and let's be getting out of this."

Th* three men went *t the "work" with a will. A feeling of unuttemble horror thrilled Faith Worland's heart as shesaw the brush piled Mound the prisoner at the tree. "Great HeavensT what are yon abont to do?" cried Faith, turning a look of horhr opon Lawdefc"

"To roast yonder chap as wo would thieving fox," returned Lawder, with a grntiug uiugb*

Faith felt a fainting sickness come over her which sealed her lips for a minute.

All was completed, one of the villains advanced with alighted torch of resin ous wood, and applied it combustibles.

Tber were all well snaed, determined Intended doom, and resolved to shir no fellows, and Kent knew they would be I stans of weakness if possible. more than a match for Lawder and his thrfee remaining companions, If they found t-bem.

"We are going with you." "But there's no need of your risking your life rashly. You two mast retort home."

Leon's lip curled. "I shall not return," she said. "Yon need a guide. I know more of the hills

"He insists on going with me." Kent bit his Hp. "Well, I suppose if you are determined it would be useless for me to remonstrate," said the youth. "Entire# aselees, sir."

The black mustang ridden by Leone was seen by the three villains as she dashed to the reseue. A moment later pistol shot rang on the air. 'There's trouble there,'' said Burk Lawder. "I'll go forward a bit and see what1* up."

A towering cliff rose at her back. In front was a narrow strip of greensward beyond, rough, stony ground, bare of vegetation. To the right ana left the hills rose gradually to a great height, covered with a stunted growth of cedars. Away off to the southwest, Faith saw the dim outline of the rolling prairie land.

The gurgling sound of water reached her ear. Rising to her feet with an effort, Faith beheld a small brook glinting in the sunshine as its waters stole from the hillside through the grass, losing itself at last among the stones further on.

Not a person was in sight. She seemed alone in the vast solitude, but suddenly

Slowly, at first, tbe flames licked up the wood. Every second, however, increased the volume.

The .voice died away. There was a slight convulsion of tbe frame,*ind Redno, the Dwarf, lay still in death.

Then the tears flowed afresh from Leone's eyes. She held the dead form clasped closely in her arms, meaning piteously.

Kent attempted to draw her away. "NO, no!" she cried "leave mo with him now. He was my all, my precious bo y, my darliug child!"

ent" looked on the bowed figure of Leone in wonder. "What doen this mean, Leone. Your child?"

She looked up through her tears. "My child, Kent," she murmurs, sadly. "Redno was.my son We will not dwell oh the sad scene. The words of Leone were a shock to the feelings of Keat Worland, and the story of the past come vividly before him then.

Burk Lawder and bis two dead companions were buried near where they had fallen, and then the little party moved slowly out to where tbe horses were left.

Two of the men walked, bearing a litter, with the dead body of Reduo between them this left a horse for Judd Palmer and Faith, who were so far recovered as to be able to ride.

Leone rode beside the litter, with bowed head, saying not a word to anyor.e. Presently, Judd Palmer pressed to her side. "Leone."

She raised a pale, bAggard, tear-stained face to his. He extended fyi* band and laid a till box on ber lap. "I found this on the person of BirfR Lawder/' he said, in a low Cons, "it Contains all that you have so longed to possess, tbe proofs of your innocence."

She grasped the box, a thrill of relief touching her heart for a moment, theu thrust it within the folds of ber dress.

Higher and higher the flames crept, the heat growing more intense every instant

A murmured prayer fell from the lips ptive.a commotion in

and just then there was a the thickly growing

cedars. Then came the cracS of half a dozen rifles, the fierce shouts of bravo men advancing to the rescue.

Two of the marauders fell dead in their tracks and the next moment Kent Worland, at tbe head of his men, burst upon the scene. "The game's up," growled Lawder, hoarsely.

Some of the men rushed forward and scattered the burning brush, and cut the thongs that bound the prisoner.

With the quickness of thought, Lawder snatched Faith from the ground, and bounded down the gulch, with Kent and others in hot pursuit. "Halt!" commanded Kent "halt, or I fire!"

Bark Lawder came to a stand, holding the insensible maiden in front of him to shield himself. "Stop!" shouted the villain, drawing his revolver. "Come another step, aaa I'll shoot the girl—I swear it!"

Kent paused. The situation was embarrassing. "There's no use of further parleyin Burk Lawder," said Kent, ''it's im ble for you to escape."

A hoarse, defiant laugh came back. "The case is a desperate one, I admit, but I sball die game," retorted the desperado. "If I die, this girl dies too."

Kent fingered his revolver nervously. "Allow me to go free, and Faith is yours unharmed."

Kent bit his lip. He did not wish to make such a bargain, but could see no way to avoid it.

Just then his eye caught sight of a little figure creeping along the foot or the hill to the rear of Lawder. It was Redno, the dwarf.

He held his bow in hand, an arrow fitted to the string. The desperado saw the direction of Worland's gaze, and turning partly around, beheld bis danger. Redno had raised his bow, the arrow drawn to the head.

With a quick movement, Lawder lev eled his revolver at the boy, With the twang of the bow came the report of the revolver. The shaft sped straight to tbe spot aimed at by the dwarf, and the outlaw fell forward with the arrow quivering in his bosom

When they reached him, Burk Lawder's guilty soul had gone to meet its Maker. But as the arrow was well aimed, so was the revolver, and the poor dwarf uttered a wail of anguish, and sank down, yielding up his life.

Kent was bending over the boy, when Leone dashed up on her mustang My God! what is this?" she cried, springing to the ground and raising Redno^s head to her lap. "Oh, Redno! my boy, my dear child have they murdered you

A faint smile swept tbe facc of the dying boy. The blood was gushing from a wound in his breast, and it was plain that his minutes were numbered.

Hot tears rained down upon the face of the dwarf from the eyes of Leone. "Don't cry, sister," faltered the boy. 'It's all right. I was only a trouble to you, and never would havo been anything but a little deformed creature, and

Leone smothered his words with caresses. "Don't, sobbed

Time went by on rapid wings. Th© skill and care of Nathan Wilder were rewarded, and Oiles Worland was en his feet again, restored to life from the verge of the grave.

To Leone and her father be owed his existence. Tbe old enmity was dying out of his heart forever.

One bright Autumnal day, when anew house had been reared near tbe rains of the old one, Giles Worland sent for his neighbor to oome to him. It was with some reluctance that the fktber of Leone complied with tbe request. He was reassured, however, when his old enemy rushed forward, and grasped him warmly by the hand. "Nathan, there has existed night of deadly hate between us, henceforth, may there be only true and lasting friendship," said Woriaod ferveatly. "Thgre bas bees no hak? on my peri*

No, I am tbe one solely in tbe blame." Indeed, you are not," cried Wilder, quiekly.

acted tbe part of a villain in

my youth, and have suffered most Utterly in consequence." "Where is Leone said Worland, sad denly. "I would express to her the gratitude of my heart. To her and you I owe my life. Leone is a noble woman, and I have wronged her, too." "I met your son going over to my house. Perhaps your gratitude will be put to the test, Giles." "I am willing, I raise no Author objection to the match if such it prove," returned the old man, a moist light gathering in his eyes.

Kent and Leone were together that bright Autumnal day. Once again he had asked her to be his wife, and in answer she had placed her. marriage certificate and wedding ring in his hand "That, Kent, is my answer to the columnies that have been uttered against my name. I was secretly married to Martin Lawder when but fifteen. knew that my parents disliked the man, that I loved him, but very soon found otit my mistake. He stole

I imagined

this certificate from my case, one night, and fled. Without money or friends, I managed to make my way home, where I found myself in disgrace. Even my mother believed rne guilty of a grievous sin. My father, however, believed my story, and I was not turned adrift. "Poor Redno was born a year after that clandestine marriage. I had nothing to prove that marriage, but knowing myself a lawfully wedded wife. I refused to cringe and die of a broken heart, at the world's sneers. After coming here, I met Burk Lawder, my runaway husband's brother, who told me that my husband died a year ago, aiid gave to his keeping our marriage certificate and my ring. It was a base lie, but I believed him, and it was to gain possession of these that sent me into his presence so often. You know the facts now, Kent. I leave it to you to say whether our lives shall be joined for the future." "You know I will say yes, Leone," cried tbe young man, drawing her to him. "I love you this moment better than I ever did before." "I am not a young girl, Kent. A man like you, can scarcely find anything attractive in a widow of six and twenty."

He smiled down into her fece. "That specious pleading won't work,' a«IH ''I vnnriirA hflfnrfl Ym he said.

knew yeur age before. You

are not so old as I am by a year. Redno saved my life once, and the only gratitude I can show to the dear boy's memoory, is to marry his mother, and love and care for her through life."

Tears filled the eyes of Leone at mention of her dead son. Every day, for long weeks, she had watered his grave with her tears.

Together the lovers walked to the little mound beneath which the brave dwarf lay sleeping the last long sleep. Over the little grave, scarcely a month old, Ke»t and Leone pledged their betrothal vows, and tears filled his eyes, as well as the fond mother's, as they walkslowly from tbe hallowed spot: 1'Wee not for him whodieth—-

For he sleeps, and Is at rest: And the couch whereon he Ileus Is the green earth's quiet breast"

The one marauder left after the affair in the gulch, was allowed to depart, with the promise to leave the country at once, and never more to return.

The friendship that bad grown so unexpectedly between the families, so long separated by a bitter feud, was never broken.

Judd Palmer had the satisfaction of leading Faith Worland to the altar, one y$ar later, on'fhe same dAy that Kent and--Leone took upon themselves the holy marriage vows. Kent was in favor of a spetxly marriage, but Leone would not listenko it for a moment. 'I cannbt wrong my darling child, my Redno, ly taking anew the vows of wifehood, so soon aftor his death," she said, api Kent bowed to her will in this, as he -|ifteward did in other things, for, our readers are aware, Leone had a most decided will of berown. ..« THH END.
