The flying sand smote them in clouds, driven with the speed of bullets. In vain they lay flat, urgi ng their poniesl forward; the beasts, maddened and blinded by the merciless lashing of the sand, refused to face the storm. Keith, I all sense of direction long since lost.‘ rolled wearily from the saddle, bun; rowed under the partial shelter of a1 sand dune, and called upon Neb tol follow him. With their hands and feet they made a slight wind-break, drag- ging the struggling ponies into its protection, and burrowed themselves there, the clouds of sand skurrying over them so thick as to obscure the sky, and rap-idly burying them alto- gether as though in a grave. Within an hour they were compelled to dig 'themselves out, yet it proved I‘at‘139‘_ escape from the pitlless lashing.

It was three o’clock before it died sufficiently down for them to venture out. Even then the air remained full of sand, while constantly shifting ridges made travel diificuit. Only grim necessity~the suffering of the ponies for water. and their own need for soon reaching the habitation of man and acquiring foulâ€"drove them to the eariy venture. They must at- tain the valley of the Salt Fork that night. or else perish in the desertâ€" there remained no other choice. Ty- ing neckerchiefs over their horses’ eyes, and lying flat themselves, they succeeded in pressing slowly forward, winding in and out among the shitt- ing dunes, with only the wind to guide them. It was an awful trail, the boots sinking deep in drifting sand, the struggling ponies becoming so ex- hausted that their riders finally dis- mounted. and staggered forward on foot, leading them stumbling blindly after. Once the negro’s horse dropped, and had to be lashed to its feet again; once Keith’s pony stum- bled and fell on him, hurling him face down into the sand, and he would have died there, lacking sufficient strength to lift the dead weight, but for Neb’s assistance. As it was he went staggering blindly forward. bruised. and faint from hunger and fatigue. Neither man spoke; they had no breath nor energy left to waste; every ounce of strength needed to be. conserved for the battle against na- ture. They were fighting for life; fighting grimly, almost hOpelessly, and alone. About them night finally closed in. black and starless, yet fortunately with a gradual dying away of the storm. For an hour past they had been struggling on, doubting their di- rection, wondering dully if they were, not lost and merely drifting about in a circle. They had debated this' fiercely once, the ponies standing de- jectedly, tails to the storm, Neb argu- ing that the wind still blew from the south, and Keith contending it had shiited into the westward inc nil .e man won his way, and they staggered on uncertain, the negro grasping the.

Some instinct of the plains must have uid- ed them, for at last they dr gged themselves out from the desert, the{ â€"_ crunching sand under foot‘ changing into rock, and then to short brittle grass, at which the ponies nibbled eag- ~rly.

One thing was, however, certain --â€"they would be compelled to wait for daylight to ascertain the truth, and decide upon their future movements. There was another barren, sandy stretch of desolation lying between this isol ated valley and that of the ' Canadian, and their horses would never stand to be pushed forward: without both rest and food.
