SAYEI) BY A SQUAW. It "was so hot that tho hluo gum .leaves fairly sizzled, no. hot as Pete Obbrlin looked across the road from, his shanty tho outlines of tho Oasis 'saloon and those of tho combined postoffice and grocery seemed to .waver and danco in the furnace cur rent rising to the glaring, brazen sky. Hot aa it was outdoor it was still moro like an oven in Pete's lit tle one room hut, for the fire was blazing, and Pete, coatloss and vest less, was oyerseeing-a frying pan of bacon and a mess of boiling potatoes, s The appetizing odor floated out of the doorway and spread over tho neighborhood. It was distinctly no ticeable as far off as the row of lop ped eucalypti beyond the saloon. At the foot of one of these trees lay what at first sight seemed only a bundle of rags, but a cToser inspec tion revealed a shock of black hair and glimpses of a brown parchment skin that indicated a human being. Gradually as the welcome aroma penetrated .the creature's befogged brain the heap of rags stirred and tossed, and-finally uplifting bodily resolved itself into a very dirty and torn blanket surmounted by a hid eous, blear eyed countenance. The old hag, for it was a woman, sniffed at tho wandering fragrance, trying to catch its direction, and then stag gered unsteadily across tho road to Pete's cabin. "Hello, there, Wawagal Gottin over yer spree?" greeted that gentle man easily.. "Umph! No drunk. Injun hun gry," remarked the visitor. Pete, laughing good naturedly, re plied : ' 'You wait I'll give you a bite pretty quick now. " Tho old woman squatted on her heels by tho stovo and greedily eyed the preparations for tho feast, while Peto kept his own optics steadily on his cooking to forestall any possible burning. Tho squaw's gazo roved around tho rpom, finally pausing at the shelf behind tho stove, upon which stood a cheap alarm clock and a big black bottlo. Hero it remained fixed until Pete looked at her once moro, whereupon sho announced in her quavering croak: "Olo Injun heap thirsty." Peto laughed again. "Go along out ter ther pump then, " ho said. But Wawaga's eyo was still glued to tho interesting object boforo her. Soon Peto himself went out to the pump, pail in hand. Immediately tho bundle of rags by tho wall stretched up a lean arm with the quick and stealthy motion of a pounc ing cat, and soizingthe bottlo poured tho fiery contents down through tho brown parchment throat. Such an unearthly howling and yelling' as -followed, this successful thievery ! Peto dropped his pail and came running in, te-find his guest doubled up in agony and rolling around on fcho floor screeching liko mad. -. - "What in thunder's struck her?" ho cried, but just tbcu catching sight cf tho black bottlo still clutched in tho Indian's skinny claw his blank look turned to a witlo grin. Ho dropped on the nearest lxx, slapping his thigh and chuckling, "My eye, ef tho old fool ain't drunk that ther quart o' ' kerosono l" Tho terror stricken screaming redoublecfc" while tho man .watched tho poor wretch's antics in ecstasy..', uuess -it'll teacn her ter quit ir.cddlin, " he muttered gleefully, but P3 tho moments passed he bopan to realize that tho matter was serious, for tho .ei-ea-luro'a con tortions grow awful and her anguish too great for amusement. Pete's grin faded insensibly. ; He scratched his head ) thoughtfully, grumbling: "Don't know as I want the old gal kickin tho bucket right, here and now, but what in tarnal creation's a feller goin ter do for her? Oh, gosh 1 I know, " Ho bolted across tho road, sending, up a chok ing cloud of powdery soil, and burst into tho store. "Say, Ike, you got any mustard?" he demanded. "Old Wawaga's dono drunk all my coal oil, and I guess it's goin ter kill her. Don't yer, hear that screechin?" Ike Dempsey,! roused from his mid day nap, rubbed his eyes" and stretch ed himself, then rising deliberately from the cracker barrel and thrust ing his quid into one cheek drawled lazily: "Waal, now,- whore's tho hurt ef tho olo. sot do gin us the shake? Oh, doan't be in er rush, naow. I guess ther's a can er mus tard around somewher's. " Reaching a long lazy arm under the counter, he clattered among his possessions and brought up a fistful ot yellow brown dust. "This hero miff? Never mind payin." In two minutes moro Peto Oborlin. laid violent hands on the rolling hoap of agony in his cab in and'' sternly commanded, "Drink this hero." Sho drank it. Then the frontiersman dragged her bodily Out side tho shanty and loft her alone with her misery. , lAfter some time Peto returned to his patient, bearing a tin pinto with a generous sharo of, hii dinner. Ha; presented this with a flourish and grinned sympathetically as tho mor sels of food disappeared. When tho' shadows of tho bluo gums stretched long and gaunt to the' 'eastward and a mollow'pink flushed the tops 6f tho grand, distant mountains, a. tipsy and squalid old squaw iff tattered blanket trailed slowly up the -dusty road through tbd foothills, and for six months neither Ike Dempsey nor Peto nor oyen Pat Grogan at tho saloon saw any more of Wawaga. ; .When Pete Oborlin roachodupto the shelf behind the stovo that night and after feeling vainly around in the darkness struck a match andex- nrained thff surface, he let forth a volley s of oaths that would have shocked the ears of a mulo driver, finishing up wratbfully with, "Wish. I'dlet tho old thief dio andbe d- d to her aforo ever sho. got away with my hand carved brier wood pipe.-' 1 - ' Week after week Pete Oberlhv in his capacity of mail carrier, jogged over the dusty plain, wound in and out through tho foothills, with- a stop hero and there at tho ranches,: and climbed over the ridge to the fort on tho reservation, always tho destination of tho biggest part of his budget. After the early rains had carpeted the bare brown hills with green and given a glossier tinge to the mourn ful bark stripped . eucalyptus he be gan to hear ugly rumors on his trips from f armhouso to farmhouse. There had not been an Indian outbreak for 20 years in that section, but some disquieting influence was hard at work on tho redskins. Some said tho Indian messiah was coming, others that one of Geronimds lieutenants had been sowing this excitement XI j i . . uuiuug uuuin. no man as ic may, there was watchful anxiety at the fort and a growing feeling of danger in the breasts of the neighboring ranchmen. Every bit of this came, of course, to the ears of the mail oar rier, and in the snug barroom of the Oasis ho would regale a little knot of cronies with highly colored tales of the secret dances, the weapons and war preparations to be seen in wild nooks in the hills if a white man knew where to look for them. Yet for all these notes of warning no one dreamed of an actual danger ous uprising. One Soft winter's night when the damp laden rain wind blew heavily from tho south and tho low hung cloud blanket shut out every wee ray of starlight dark mounted figures met in a sheltered hill basin 10, 20, 50, they gathered." Then in'sin glo file, with muffled hoofs, they wound away from their prison. Sev eral hours later as the mischievous band stealthily made its way out on the plain a stunted figure in a ragged blanket shrunk silently into the bushes to let tho cavalcade pass and then emerged once more from her cover and struck into a swinging trot in the rear of tho swift moving riders. A faint angry flush of dawn peeped over the somber mountains as the redskin braves surrounded the few scattered buildings composing Rush Station. A dog barked in the rear of the saloon, and in response a sharp report sent a shudder through the chill morning air. With a howl of anguish the poor beast rolled over in the dust. At the crack of the pis tol tho half dozen men in the shan ties came tumbling out from differ ent doorways. Not one was more than balf dressed, but each ono had snatched up his rifle. What odds are six men against 50? As the hastily wakened settlers stumbled out from their cabins a ' leaden hail rattled around them. Two of their number fell, struck off at once by the raiders. "Injuns, by the tarnal heavens 1" cried Ike Dempsey, and the four re maining defenders, now very thor oughly aroused, drew quickly back into the store and blazed away from this cover at their murderous assail ants. They had ammunition in plen ty and spare guns. Ike's wife put her two littlo sobbing children into a big box in the center of the build ing, as the point that was farthest from danger, and herself filled the hot, smoking rifles. - The fusillade was thick and fast, and bullets flew in through tho openings. Pat Gro gan s right arm was shattered, but he rested his gun on the window and fired away vindictively. Poor Smith was shot through the lungs and fell in a dying condition. Mrs. Dempsey took his placo, handling her rifle deftly. Time and again some sharp howl of anguish told of a well direct ed shot at the half concealed, sinis ter foemen. Morning was advancing. Perhaps ly this time the flight from the res ervation was discovered,a53 soldiers (were coming to help them if only they could keep the red devils at bay jkwhilo longer. Vain hope. Black Wing, chief of the raiders, had also thought of the soldiers. He conclud- ed it was time to make short work of these sharp sighted marksmen who were picking off his : compan ions. There came a sudden, fearful yelling, a swift rush and retreat of moccasined feet, then the pungent smell of smoke and the ominous crackling' of the fire licking up the dry boards. Tho heat became intol erable. To : remain was sure death from tho destroying element. "We must run for it, boys!" cried Pete Oberlin. ' 'The doorof my-shan ty stands open, and ther ain't no In juns inside it." ' The shot riddled portal was flung wide. With the two little lads in the middle the forlorn hope sought a new refuge, their guns speaking death in the passage. Ike Dempsey fell in his own doorway, shot through the brain. Pat Grogan fell in the roadway, and at the same moment the brave who had shot him reeled and toppled down from his saddla With a horrible sense of siokness Pete saw a savage horseman bury his tomahawk in the woman's head and then snatch up one of the chil dren and dash his skull on the door- stone. The other little fellow slipped from the hand that grasped at him and stumbled over the cabin thresh old, barely escaping a bullet. A sharp whistle cut the air. Pete felt a stinging pain in his shoulder and fell to the ground unconsoious. - . With an exultant shout at the de struction of this last enemy the sav age band swarmed from their places of attaok and hastily entered the buildings, stowing away whatever was easily portable and making sad havoo in Grogan s stock of liquors, but they were not yet . far enough from the reservation to allow them selves a long stop. Tho store was burning fiercely. To force his un ruly following to hurry Black Wing fired the saloon with , his own hand, the wooden frame " blazing like tin der. Ono by one the sheds and shacks were ignited. i? Three or four wretches, with fresh,- gory scalps dangling at their belts, rushed over to apply the torch to the only re maining building Peto ' Oberlin's shanty. A young brave stumbled over the inanimate form in the path way, and with a whoop ; of delight waved his keen blade over the thiok black locks. Just as he stopped Jo his vlotim an o33, long ; drawn cry arrested his arm in its motion. A wpd and dust covered figure sprang into the blood crazed cirole, pouring out a torrent of gutMral abuse and lamentation that, somehow com manded attention. . 7't. "The oldwomanr-rfqr it wasWawa ga bent above the prostrate man, waving off the armed braves, and felt for tho faintest of heart beats. Then raising herself to her full height, shaking back her snaky hair .and with a rude, powerful majesty she commanded in her own tonguo: "Go while yet you have-time. Be fore the morning has ended tho sol diers will be on you. The man still lives. He is inine. Do- not touch him. You have the scalps of . the others. " Wawaga was one of the mothers of i the tribe, and her words had weight with the warriors. Black Wing mounted his pony, andall of his raiders did likewise, In the light of the gray, cloudy morning a wild procession scurried over the plain and away once more to the moun tains, where they could find secret hiding and for months elude their pursuers while they kept the whole country in terror with their thieving, burning and killing. ' When"" Pete Oberlin, lying in his own bunk, opened his eyes ; on the dim soene,' lighted by the flickering fire, he thought ho had gone through a horrible dream. Kicking off tie covers, he sat up with a vigorous jerk, but the sharp pain in his shoul der made him grind his teeth in ag ony. At the : same moment he be came aware of a dark figure crouch ed in one corner holding a bundle of white. His sudden motion and mut tered exclamation stirred the quiet watcher. Stumbling to her feet, she bore her burden to the pallet and de posited it beside him. "Him live, lil boy," she announced gravely. Pete sank baok beside the sleeping child with a choking sensation, half thankfulness for their escape and half horror at the suddenly conjured picture of the boy'smurdered moth er and brother. He remembered how he was wounded. How had they, too, esoaped scalpijig? How came Wawa ga there? Were the redskins still at the station? If so, he must use the greatest caution. Perhaps they had kept him for torture. Tho woman anticipated his queries. "Injuns gone. You go now 'fore come back; " Pete started again upright, main taining his position in spite of the shooting pain and dreadful dizziness. "Whioh way shall I go and how?" he asked eagerly. "I must take lit tle Jim. Did them raskils git all ther hosses?" "White man keep still. Wawaga get pony," and the old woman drew the tattered blanket around her and flipped noiselessly from the room, leaving Pete to his own busy thoughts. She was gone but a few seconds before sho glided in again,, muttering: "Him ready. You go fort. No find Injuns." Pete felt sick and faint 'Ho won dered how he could keep himself and tho drowsy child on the animal's back qver the many miles of rough road that lay between them . and 'safety. It was impossible to remain in their defenseless position, so he must mako tho effort He could not imagine how the squaw had dismiss ed' his assailants, and he expected their return With darkness to finish their programme of vengeance. Wawaga herself carried out the boy. "No touch, arm hurt" she said, motioning away the wounded man. . Very , gently she lifted tho tiny figure, stilling its fretful wail and coaxing him to wake up and ride on the pony. Sho led the way, and Peto followed. As he stepped out into the dusk his heart swelled at the utter desolation. Only tho scorched row of gum trees marked the site of Rush Station: beside his forlorn little cabin. " With a good deal of wrenching and pain Pete clambered into the saddle. The squaw lifted the boy before him. The man gathered the bridle into his useful hand, enoircling tho . child with the same arm. Before he put spurs to his horso and set out on his perilous journey ho leaned down to ward the stunted and squalid hag at the horse's head, saying hoarsely: "You're a good un, Wawagal I'll do as much feryou if ever I git ther chanoe." "Ughi" grunted tho old woman. "Squaw no good. Heap good white man no let olo Injun die. All even now. Here ole squaw take um. No good, b'long white man. " She thrust a blade something into his hand, and turning stolidly around re-entered the desolate cabin. Pete Oberlin buried his spurs in his animal's flank, and the beast sprang forward past the heaps of smoldering cinders and the blasted row of gum trees and headed straight for the mountains. In his unwound- ed hand with the bridle Pete held his long lost brier wood pipe. Ger trade B. Millard in Argonaut His First Visit to Church It was his first visit toohuroh, and his big brown eyes watched every thing. He saw the newcomers drop their heads on the pew rails in front of them as they entered and in a moment raise them again. ; "Why do they put their heads down?" he whispered to his older sister, who was with him. "They say a littlo prayer," she whispered back. "But they don't talk," argued brown eyes, not convinced. "No, they think," explained the sister, and "Shall I think a little prayer?" was the next question. . "If you like, " was the reply, ands the big brown eyes were shut the small hands folded and an earnest little face dropped against the rail. , In a moment or two the head was raised, and the . little fellow crept back on the cushions. "I tried to think 'Now I lay mo,' " he whispered, "but I had to talk it, 'cause the words wouldn't stay down - ho finished anxiously. . No, brown eyes, God will not care.

It was told me by her advance agent. and though-It seems to me I haveread it somewhere or something like It I give It to you because it is rather amusing. it appears that the agent had some very nice framed photographs of his "star," whioh he carried a week ahead of the com pany and placed in prominent windows. One day he started out with them, and when he had distributed all but one he saw a most fascinating jewelry shop, with a large plate glass window that faced three thoroughfares. 'Why, that one window will advertise the whole town," he said to himself. He entered the shop, and tho proprietoi ambled forward with a pleasant smile, which changed to a scowl when he heard the agent's errand. ' , No, sir, " he said savagely. "I haven't got any use for play actresses. They are no good, and their pictures don't get in my window, tickets or no tickets!" bo the agent withdrew, boiling with in dignation, after telling the merchant whalj he thought of him. A week later he came back and mot thb company in that Identical town. Among other things, his "star" said: "There's a fine jewelry shop at the cor ner, and as I want to buy some Christmaa presents I might as well buy them there." Then the agent told of tho jeweler's re-. marks. That afternoon the pretty "star, " at tired in her most fetching hat and seal skin, entered the shop alone, and said to the jeweler, who was all smiles: .Let me seo some solitaire diamond rings, pleaso." - The merchant showed her a glittering tray, and she selected a fine stone. Mow much is this?" ff One hundred and sixty dollars." Just lay it aside, please, and show mo some bracelets." - S The jeweler became simply servile (?) his delighted attentions, and when she had asked him to lay aside a 175 bracelet and show her some gentlemen's chains ho had to pinch himself to make sure he was awake. ' A chain was selected and "laid aside.'' and then the actress asked: "What is the total?" The merchant totaled up the figures and said: "Two hundred and sixty-five dollars." The lady drew out her purse, and this was the signal, for the agent, who had been peeping in at the corner of the win dow, entered and asked in simulated sur priso: Why, Miss 1 What are you doing here?" Tho merchant was busy doing up the goods, but.looked rather nervous. Tho aotress responded: "Why, I Want to buy a few Christmas presents, and this seems to bo a nice stock." No, no," said tho agent impressively. You mustn't buy them here." "And why not?" "Because that man not only refused to place your picture in his window, but in suited actresses grossly." The lady turned an icy glance upon the jeweler. In that case I shall not need tho art! cles, 6ir," she remarked in hor most tragic manner, and "then the two conspirator left the shop with haughty tread. It s a good story, and I make it a pres ent to some press agent who wants to boom his "attraction." Polly Pry in New York Recorder. " Sailers From Isolation. From what I have seen, of Ireland I should say that, industrially and commer cially, the country suffers much from its isolation. The Irish may not be as frugal as the Scotch, nor as c&ergetic as the Eng lish, but they are quiokcr witted than ei ther, and not behind either in business aptitude. But they do not travel in order to learn. They leave their oonntrv in shoals, and often prosper elsewhere, but they do not go back, like the Scotch and the Germans, to put into practice at home the ideas which they have picked up i n other countries.
