it t, trying to ivmoinbof her voice, her
face, her vivid beauty; trying to for
grt the words that -ut short his course
as a newspaper tn.-in and sent him out
on the ranch. Was it. after all, only
a year since she refused him? Could
ho never again close his eyes without
seeinjr the red of her gown? It seemed
half a lifetime that he had been guard
ing these beasts, rounding up strag
glers, keeping' watch lest the herd
stampede for the river. Day after day
of burnins sun and night after night
of stars the loneliness of the plain
oppressed hiiu; the cattle irritated him
wtili their stupid docility. The hot
noon sun blistered down on their
brown backs. The black flies buzzed
above them and their
The broncho raised his head suddenly.
It was so unusual for Dick to show
signs of life during the noon hour that
the man was startled from his reverie.
A subtle disturbing wave seemed to
sweep through the herd. Here and
there a head was tossed, and dilated
nostrils sniffed the summer air'. The
man. vaguely disturbed, looked to
ward the rear of the herd. Far out
on the plain was a buokboard with a
bit of red tl uttering in it. "Good
Lord." he said aloud, "one of the fool
beai-ts has caught sight of that! It's
hold tight now or the devil to pay'."
liis year on the plain hud taught him
that Iho cattle herd is njore sensitive
to panii- than even the human throng.
A sudden movement, a strange nutter
of sound or color, and far down in the
grazing herd comes a sudden closing of
ranks, a sl.v moving forward of a
constantly augmented mass that, with
ijuick increase of speed, sweeps on, un
til a thousand panic stricken steers
stampede across the plain.
DiUee sat rigid upon his broncho at
the head of tin' herd. Alone, he knew
it was hopeless to al tempt to make the
herd "circle," the cue sure remedy for
a stampede. Keen the slightest move
ment on his part might precipitate mat
ters, while absolu:e quiet might pre
vent the breaking of the storm which
was slowly brewing.
A half mile out ou the plain the
bii -ki.oard and the tiuitering bit of red
drew nearer. More heads were tossed
in the all-. ' Mi the outskirts of the herd
uetrest the coming buckboard here
aul there a steer ceased grazing and
moved hesitatingly toward the center.
Inquiring heads were lifted to see
what the movement meant. Those that
-pied the tliillering red followed quick
ly to the center. Those that failed to
see the cause felt the yague wave of
terror and with short snorts of fear
sought to move close to their fellows.
In rapid succession the animals were
struck by the panic wave. "With brain
clear and tense, as full .realization of
his danger came upon him I'.ruce held
in his restless pony and thought rapid
ly, facing him was the herd. Behind
him. three miles out across the plain,
was the river. If the stampede came,
heaven alone knew whether the mad
dened cattle would plunge headlong
over the banks, those in front forced
on by the unseeing ones in the rear, or
whether the leaders could turn all at
right angles and follow the river bank.
For one moment Bruce thought of
trying to turn the stampede and by
whip and shout endeavor to send the
frightened brutes back, away from the
river, but danger to the nearing buck
hoard, now so close that he could see it
eonta'unil the ligures of a man and a
woman, precluded that plan. Then all
power of controlling affairs was taken
from him. for Dick, suddenly attacked
by the fear contagion, gave a pitiful
whinny of terror and, with the bit be
tween his teeth, bolted toward the riv
er. The sudden sound and movement
were all that was needed, and in the
next instant Dick's hoof beats were
drowned in the roar of hoofs in mad
Might about him.
Bruce, with knees that gripped the
saddle like iron, gave one glance be
hind him. lie was riding among the
leaders, but the heavy hurtling ranks
behind them threatened at any mo
ment to ride them down. If he could
make an opening Dick had three miles
in which to pull away from them, and
the roar of the maddened beasts, their
wild snorts, and the occasional shriek
of one of their number, who fell and
was instantly trampled to death, made
spur or whip or word unneeded for the
broncho. Trembling, with head thrust
far forward and nostrils distended, he
sped on with all the speed the beasts
crowded .-'bout him would permit.
Could they turn at the river? If ntt.
Bruce knew that death for him was a
in.it ter of a few moments. And sud
denly life seemed very sweet to him.
Even life without her seemed suddenly
bearable. The scent of the linden buds,
the red of the gown she w ore, how viv
id and how lovely even the memory
was! And was this all that life was to
hold for him -a few years of hope de
ferred and early destroyed, then a few
memories, and then death? And what
a death trampled, mangled, made into
a thing unspeakable by those trampling
hoofs. Ah. the pity of it, he thought,
to have no taste of happiness!
lie cbnolied the reins tighter. No, he
would not die. Somehow he meant to
live. For a moment he, too. was panic
stricken. "Dick, Dick." lie groaned.
"'Can't you go faster? Full away from
them, old boy! There Is no one to care
much what happens to us. but we want
to live anyhow!"
Again he looked back. Slowly the
herd was gaining on the leaders. The
forward ranks were more and more
massed. Worse than the roar and
screech of a hundred locomotives was
the din about him. lie could see the
break in the level stretch of prairie
that marked the river banks. Nearer
and nearer it came, and closer about
:he quivering hr ncho pressed the snort
ing eattie. Now I'.ruce could see the
rocks on the opposite bank, nmv he
caught a glimpse of the brown water,
and then a sudden stumble, a mad
roar, and horse and rider went down
together.
For years and years he seemed to
have been falling. Sometimes he
caught sight of her, and always her lips
moved, but he caught no word or sound,
sj-ruictiixies he ventured to ask her what
she said, but his questions when they
came were absolutely irrelevant, and
he cursed himself for a fool, and grad
ually the search was becoming painful.
Strange aches and miseries nicked his
body. The glimpses of her face became
less and less frequent. Suddenly he
opened his eyes to rest them. The walls
of his lit ranch bedroom seemed fa
miliar enough, hut what were these
agonies that wrung and wrenched him?
Then memory came. Ah, yes the
stampede and the fall. He closed his
eyes again and feebly pondered over
his rescue. Then a soft rustle and a
little murmur near the foot of the bed
made him open his eyes once more. It
was site! The red gown, the vivid face,
the soft parted hair were all the same.
If this were delirium, he thought, why,
let delirium g on to the end of the
chapter, and just for luck he W"ould
speak to her once more, just to see if
she would faint away, as usual.
"It's a nice day, Alice." he remarked
in a strangely small voice.
"Oh. Alien. Alien, do you really
know. me':" And with a rush of skirts
she was on her knees beside the bed.
Know her! t'oukl he recoguize hia
own consciousness?
"You were iii the buckboard," he
said.
"How diil you know?" she asked.
"I didn't know. Did the cattle get
me?"
The girl shuddered and moved closer.
"No; the pony lei! ( lose to the river's
edge, his body shielded yours from the
herd, and the cattle used him for a di
viding poini and. went up and down
the river. They had to shoot the poor
broncho, but we got you into the buck-
board and back to the ranch some
how."
Bruce turned a bewildered face to
ward her. and in response the girl
won! on:
Tncie John and I
we-t. and I wanted
you. Cousin Frank t
here. Then came tin
are touring the
to sav hello to
Id me you wert
stampede."
Her voice t r:t i led
iniii silence, i.ruce
put up a feeble ha
id and pressed her
sof: cheek close 1o his own. This. then.
had been the reason for it all the
lonely vigils, the long hours, the con
stant desire and ttie endless misery of
loneliness.
"Alice." he said acidly, "is it to be
yes now?"
The girl caught her breath. Her only
answer was to leave her cheek close
to his.
And l'.t'ii'-i' nest ling closer, closed his
eves and fell asleep.
