Kidnap­ ing changes Alfred greatly and when lie and Stella meet in Frisco society, she Basses him without recognition. Stella's love for Alfred and his for her is revived. However, neither shows recognition of the fact to the other. Anthony romance la unfolded, showing Gideon, who loved 8tella, to be her own cousin.

Train bearing iron, which was to toe the salvation of the Central Pacific, is wrecked. Alfred and Stella are reunited, when former acts the hero in wreck of Iron train. Alfred telle tale of being dis­ owned by father for befriending school­ mate. "No; it's--I love it! No mummery, only a little-sons and some words from the Book. In that spot where the posies--where you sat yesterday--only yesterday," he moaned faintly. "Gideon, dear, how can we--" She took both his hands in ber own. "Promise, Star." . She bowed her head, her tears fall­ ing fast. ' "Don't, Stella.] V can't dry--" He paused, a new thought claiming him. "El Rancho Guerrero is yours.** She shook her head. "Yes. Your father's brother was my --you must. You'll love It?" He searched her face anxiously. She remembered the doctor's words, and acquiesced. "Yes, I'll love it- love it for your sake, Gideon, for the sake of the old times." His eyes warmed almost to smiling. She freed one hand and gently smoothed back the dark hair; and for h time he was quite still, content. "The little arrow, did you--ever wear it?" he asked taintly. -"I wish I needing only rest, care and Esther. This saved her from illness. Poor, loving Gideon, dying half happy with jhls hand in hers, her kiss on his lips, had not even in that moment rivaled •Alfred. She turned to him now, her own ills forgotten in happy service for him; and by the bed he kept for a few days, she was spared tjie little town's excitement over the murder, the un­ successful hunt for the criminal, the wreck, the sending away of the wounded man to be mended by man, the burial of the poor body whose soul had gone to be commended of God. Days they toiled to rebuild the trestle that cunning hands had so secretly cut. One by one they carried heavy rails up the bank and piled them ready for loading. As Alfred recov­ ered, Esther regained poise and strength; and together they went on to the Front, where they rejoiced the Harmons with their story. At last the iron! The little left when the train was wrecked had car­ ried them by the Kelton fiats, where Gregory had planned his great day's work. Now they must lay over rough­ er road--over culverts, trestles, and r grades that must be climbed. For days the men had been idle. And Gregory had listened, with im­ patient replies, or in more impatient silence, to reports from the Union Pa­ cific. Uintah! Through the canyon* "A holiday in Salt Lake City for every man, if the west-bound track­ layers can overtake the graders be-, fore the Central Pacific arrives!" was the bribe the Union Pacific people of­ fered their men. "Their work is sham! The govern­ ment will never accept it!" enemies CHAPTER XXXII. In the Little Spot Where the Posies Grew. "Stella, dear, Gideon's dying!" Sally B. said solemnly as Esther walked by tier side to the hotel. "Come to him quick's you can. He ain't done nothin l>ut call fur you." Speechless, Esther hurried upstairs <elose behind Sally B. ":i> "They found him with a bullet la 1dm down by Big Bend Cut," Sally B. went on, as she led the way to Gid­ eon's room. "Some o' the woodmen found him. His horBe bucked when that cuss fired at you. That's how he got the drop on Gid; that, an* Gid's lear at rfrst that he'd hit you." "Is he conscious?" Esther whispered. "Yes. Mind's clear as a diamond. Jest wants you. He ain't sufferin' none, honey," she added hastily as she saw Esther's cheek pale. "Hunt yer . pluck, child, fur Gid's sake." She •clasped Esther in a warm embrace And left her at Gideon's door. The physician, who had been sum- Stoned by special engine from Elko, •came out to meet her. "Miss An­ thony?" he asked. "I'm glad you've come. Hope you can grant his desire, whatever it may be. To see you, to «peak with you, seems his only wish." Esther's strained face touched him. *'Don't give way," he said kindly. "He •doesn't suffer. I've done what little I •could to relieve him. He'll go without pain. I--" "Oh, must he--is there no chancft for--" she hesitated anxiously. "None, Miss Anthony. And there are only minutes. Go in--give him his -wish, if you can. I'll stay near; call aujvif you need me." She entered, and he shut the door, leaving her alone with Gideon. He turned his head feebly at her •tep. "Moppett!" She was down beside him, tears fall­ ing unheeded. "Don't cry, Star! I'm not sorry. I'm Clad to die." "Oh, Gideon, don't say that! You must live--must--" * "Little Star!" His voice was trem­ ulous with weakness. "I wasn't-- you'll be happy. I won't have to see him--" Each word was more difficult and he waited for strength. "Is Vin­ cent here?" She nodded. "Call him, Stella." But when she moved to obey, his weak fingers closed over hers de- talningly. "No, no! I can't do it!" be cried out with sudden strength. "After jrou rode out of town yesterday, I watched you a while through the Xlass, then went that way, Star--out that way--in time! Yes, in time! And before I saw you enter the cut--" be was silent an instant, his waiting •oul in his eyes^ "and ever since, too, I've said--I'd tell Vincent myself--" "Gideon! Don't! . It's past. You seed not--" "Sweet Star!" The tenderness in bis faint words smote Esther. "I can't tell him. I can't spare the time from you--you've been so long--coming! But you'll tell him, Stella, won't you? Tell him that I--I--tried to be white-- at last; but I'm only--oh, Stella! only an Injun! Oh, Star!" The last word was a despairing cry, almost inarticu­ late. "No, no, Gideon! You've atoned. You've been brave and--" Hsi face was turned away. His eyes were closed, and Esther leaned closer, iistening for his waning breath. Was this the last? She must call--no, he breathed more deeply. She laid her tiand on his forehead, kissed his cheek softly. At that he opened his eyes and amiled. "One promise, Stella. Will you?" He reached feebly for Jier liand. She nodded. "If I can." "Bury me--bury me out here ^out "Oh, Gideon, don't ask that! <m far. w lonely!" It's COD •DO D5 Ho Watched Her with Fond Eyes as She Came to the Bed. and Down. could--see It in--your hair." The whispered words came with more ef­ fort. "Did you send it, Gideon?" Her face lighted. "It is so beautiful!" He smiled his reply, and his satisfac­ tion. "My room is next to this. Shall I get it?" "Yes. But don't let--any one come. You--alone--I want." Esther rose, wondering at such a fancy at such a moment; wondering if she ought to leave him. In a second she was back. Even as she went, she tossed her hair loosely on top of her head,,as Gideon had liked it, and shot the glittering shaft through. He watched her with fond eyes as she came to the bedjmd knelt down. "You are very be«8pful, Moppett," he whispered, as she took his hands again in hers. Long he gazed into her face. She kissed him cm cheek and fore­ head, at last lightly on the lips. "Mine! Mine for this hour!" he said with a breath of his old passion. His eyes grew deep and darker with their strange, cryptic flash. "Oh, Star!" he whispered; "I tried--I--" He lifted his eyes to the ceiling and whispered faintly, "A life for a life." A shaft of light struck the arrow. "The sim!" He barely breathed the words. He was very still after that, though his eyes came back to her face. The hands in hers grew chill, and she stirred. "I must call--" she began, but he Bhook his head ever so little. "Only you." His lips formed the words she scarcely heard. The stillness, crept on, and on, over all the room, over the face before her, into her own heart--the stillness that was death. Only once his lips moved; It was to frame the old child- name, "Moppett." The shaft of brilliance crept down from the gemmed arrow, down through the stillness, touched Gideon's night- black hair with light. And Esther saw that last, spent, outward breath that has no indrawn follower. With the "little song," and words from "the Book," as he had asked, rough yet reverent men and women gave Gideon's beautiful earth-garment tc the warm desert's keeping, to the posies, to the wide silences he loved. CHAPTER XXXIII. Gregory's Victory* The cruel strain of the days just past told upon Esther. Still, Alfred was there--eo< by any Means well, yet of the same road averred. And Greg­ ory prayed that this might be true. But it was not true. The Union Pacific road stood inspection, was accepted; and on they came. Ogden! Still no iron for the Central Pacific! Red sparks scintillated in Gregory's sleepless eyes. Ogden! He might have been there now if the iron had come! His company might have tapped that rich valley, fetched and carried for the thrifty Mormons. Now that would be the juicy plum of the Union Pacific. And the Central Pa­ cific must squat in this desert spot, beside the dead, blue lake, whose shores gave no promise, whose flank­ ing hills had been forgotten of God! Gregory fumed over the unknown wretch who had wrecked the iron train. Poor Gregory! Little he knew that, merited though it might have ! been, the reproof his own boot had given had delayed the prociou# freight, had lost Ogden for his com­ pany, and 30 miles of road. Idle men make no muscle^ Gregory knew it, and chafed still more, as he fretted about the camp, keeping away from his guests and his anxious-eyed wife. And now the welcome whistle once again. Preparations so carefully made were reinspected. The camp awoke. Idle men stretched themselves; lazy ones regretfully, honest ones glad­ ly. Buttons, straps, buckles, shoes, hats, tobacco--all were made ready, for every one knew that to-morrow would spare no moment for broken gear, for long­ ing tongues. To the very tip-end Of the last rail the construction train had been pushed, the iron train close behind it, and iron dropped in piles beside the track, when both trains had backed to the rear. The little, low car that moved the Iron was loaded; every foreman charged his gang, looked after his tools; every man set his teeth for to­ morrow's work. Long before daylight the camp was aroused. The cooks' calls followed quickly, and breaklast was taken a- gulp. ' With the flint dawn-glow that could show a hammer head where to find a spike, the ringing racket began. Men on the trot pushed the little Iron car--little, yet how heavy!--back and forth over the newly laid rails, drop­ ping a fresh supply at the track end, each time the previous load had been spiked a few rods to the eastward. Another tooting of whistles, and the trains moved up. The rails rang loud upon one another as they fell to the ground, half a mile ahead of the morn­ ing camp. The foremen urged, en­ couraged, inspected, hurried. Faster and faster the rails dropped into place! Blow upon blow, spikes and bolts were driven home. And so on through the hot, late April day. Every boss was alert. Every man did his best; perhaps was sworn at for not doing better. Only Bennett, calm, un- hurrying, held his men to their task with neither curses nor bluster; and Bennett's gang jbptf the brunt of the fray. Mrs. Gregory and ber guests watched unwearyingly the great work- drama unfold; the miles, rail by rail, banded together in the gloriqus iron way. At what cost was it done! Yet how great was the result! "Is., it always so?" Esther asked, looking up at Alfred. "Must the road to great achievements be always by way of the sweat of the face, the heart's blood?" His look was tender, comprehending. "Are they not worth the cost?" "Yes, yes; I must believe they are." Yet she turned away, her eyes blurred with tears. 8he was thinking of Gid­ eon alone under his posies. Dinner was a farce for time, If not tor quantity. And all the afternoon men with palls and dippers marched up and down the sweating line, serv­ ing to the thirsty incredible quanti­ ties of warm, brackish water that was nectar to the sweating men. A Bhort pause for supper, and at It again! Night came on, and a moon. Eastward they could see the camp- flres of their oncoming rivals. They answered with their own huge bon­ fires, bulit to reinforce Luna's pale ray. On and on, hour after hour;, there was no talking, not even the desultory interjections of the day, or the raucous orders of the foremen. Muscles moved automatically. Hammers struck as rhythmically, but more slowly. Each man bent to his task with grim endur­ ance, too weary to protest. Some sank down and were allowed to crawl away. All day Gregory, pale and tense, had raged up and down the line, directing, crying orders far and near, calling for the impossible, often getting the un­ expected. He hurried men, scored in­ dividuals, anathematized tools, earth. Iron, heat. He was Impatient, fiercely eager; yet, with it ail, not far from every honest heart there; for he was fighting for the company--and suc­ cess. Dearer to him it waB than any enterprise of his own ever would be. The men knew this, and honored him, bore with him, respected him, for the achievement, which manv declared no other man could have made. In the dead of night, when the air waB« chill upon wet, weary backs-- when men were dropping from fatigue, and others, more dogged, were . work­ ing on, praying silently for relief--at last, down the line came Gregory's jubilant cry. "Rozel!" (TO BB CONTINUED.) UNCLE SAM--"FUN'S OVER! NOW FOR BUSINESS! in WOULD TRY IT ON THE CAT Irishman Had Cheaper Form of Analy­ sis in His Mind. Expert testimony may be valuable from a scientific point of view, but there are often cheaper ways of es­ tablishing a certainty, as the hero of the following anecdote decided at the last moment. An Irish laborer en­ tered a drug store, and drawing a paper bag from his pocket, poured on the counter a number of very sticky and unattractive looking lozenges. "Can ye examine this candy?" be asked. "It looks queer. What is the mat­ ter with it?" asked the druggist. "Pizen, Oi'm thinkin'. Did ye iver see such stuff? Dinnia Daly give them to me b'y, and Dinnis is no frind of mine." "Well, I can make an analysis." "All rlgbt. Oi'll come in to-morrow on me way from worruk." The Irishman had reached the door, but he suddenly stopped with his hand on the latch. "And how much will thot 'nalysls be costing me?" he inquired. "Five dollars," was the answer. The man walked over to the coun tor and, swept the lozenges into the bag, which be replaced in his pocket. "Niver moind, wan to the cat." " be said. "Oi'll feed MR. BOGGS KNEW THE AMOUNT. Possibly He Had Often Computed the Water He Carried. It was by no means a holiday task for Amos Boggs to carry pail after pail o. water from the old well through the orchard and across the henyard to the kitchen, where Mrs. Boggs washed for the family and a dozen or so of cus­ tomers. Therefore he was in no mood to enjoy questions. "How many years have you been at this sort of things?" asked the elderly person of wealth, on whose whKe skirts Mrs. Boggs was then ^expending her energy and the heat of a heavy iron. "Ten years," responded Mr. Boggs. striding on with his pails. "Dear, dear!" said the woman, in » commiserating tone. "Why, how much water do you suppose you've carried In that time?" "I've carried all that's bees In the well during that time, and isn't therf uow, ma'am," and Mr. Boggs entered the kitchen and set the pai»s down with as near a thump as the nature oI iheir contents would permit.- Youth's Companion.

San Francisco.--Morris Haas, who shot Francis J. Heney, shot and killed himself In his cell in the county jail Saturday night. Haas was in bis cell at the county jail with his guard. He retired to bed early, pulling the blanket over his head. A moment afterward the guard was surprised to hear a muffled report of the pistol under the blankets. They stripped off the covering and found Haas dying with a bullet hole through his head and blood flowing from the wound. Investigation showed that Haas had cunningly hidden a small, one-shot BLOODY BATTLE OKLAHOMA. Francis J. Heney. deringer In the back of his shoe, where It escaped the notice of his guards. Capt. Duke of the police declares that he searched Haas carefully after stripping him and that he had no weapon then. As Mrs. Haas visited the prisoner Saturday afternoon, the officers believe she carried 1 the; der­ ringer in her pocket and slipped it to her husband. The condition of Mr. Heney is still most satisfactory and the attending surgeons report that he Is making ex­ cellent progress on the road to recov­ ery. He passed a comfortable night, sleeping most of the time, and rested easily Sunday. Although the bullet has been locat­ ed, imbedded in the left jaw about one inch from the front of the ear, the surgeons have decided not to extract it until Mr. Heney gains more strength. When told that his assailant had ta­ ken his own life at the county jail, he said: "It is too bad he did it before giving his reason for shooting me." Fatal Boiler Explosions.

Okmulgee, Okla.--Five persons were killed and ten others wounded Sunday afternoon In a fight between Jim Deckard, a negro desperado, and law officers. The deaid: Edgar Hoblnson, sheriff of Okmulgee county; Henry Klaber, assistant chief of police of Okmulgee; two negroes named Chapman,, broth­ ers; Jim Deckard, negro. The disturbances began at the St. Louis & San Francisco railroad sta­ tion where Jim Deckard engaged in a fight with an Indian boy, Steve Grayson, and beat him into insensi­ bility with a rock. Frleads of Gray­ son notified the police and when Po­ liceman Klaber went to the station. Deckard fled to his house nearby, bar­ ricaded himself, in and when Klaber approached Deckard shot and instant­ ly killed him. Sheriff Robinson gathered a posse In a few minutes and hurried to the scene. Part of this posse was made up*of a group of negroeg, whom the sheriff commissioned as deputies. As the posse approached the house Deckard opened fire with a rifle, firing as rapidly as he could load his weapon. The sheriff fell first, in­ stantly killed. Then two of the negro deputies were slain. Deckard's house was soon sur­ rounded by a frenzied mob of armed men. Fire was set to a house just north of Deckard's.. Volleys were poured Into Deckard's bouse and he was shot down. He was seen to roll over on the floor, strike a match and set fire to his own house, which was soon a roaring furnace in which bis body was baked. Gov. Haskell at Guthrie was notified of the battle and of the bad feeling between whites and negroes that had grown out of it and threatened a race riot. The governor at once ordered the militia company at Muskogee to prepare to go to Okmulgee and a spe­ cial train was made ready to carry the troops, the governor, remaining at his office to keep in touch with the situa­ tion.
