The first little irregularity was that the cow belonged to somebody else. There-. fore a sergeant of police and a half- bred guide rode forth to bring AJ-1 mighty Voice before a magistrate. As: they rode along they heard the report‘ of a gun. They turned from the trail, and came suddenly upon the Indian and two squaWS. He had just killed a prairie chicken. “ Tell him I’ve come to arrest him for killing cattle,” said the sergeant to the guide. .4 Tell him if he advances I’ll lrill was the commander, Major Steele, Whom the noise of the fighting had roused from a bed of illness. He planted himself firmly in the middle of the bridge, and vowed to kill the first {member of the mob that attempted to :pass. ' It was settled that time as it always is. No prisoner is ever given up by the N orthwesâ€"t Mounted Police once the law demands that he be arrested. The miners knew enough of Steele to know that he would keep his word, also that their 'comrade would have a fair, square trial; that much Steele prom- ised them. No: that prestige and determina- tion carry the point always. Some-. times the desperadoes turn on the policeman, handicapped by his orders to arrest and not. kill, and the death dew gathers dam-p on his face, and the, regimental number is all that is left of him in the force. Duck Lake is the "Five Points” of the Northwest. It; lies 100 miles north of Regina, the? Sapital of the Territories.

Major bteele was commanding the police there! and in spite of firm measures ube miners were beginning to get a little out of hand. One night it culminated in a riot. Sergeant Fury, a determined, bull-dog little man, was sent, ‘flth two constables, to arrest the ring- leaders. The gang bad possession. of Ta saloon. Fury walked. in. and gomg straight up to the man he wanted, said: "Cane with me; I arrest you.” 0! course it was an invitation that the turbulent miner bad no idea of ao-; oepting.
