A Thrilling Tale of Love, Adventure, Gold and Indians, With Its Stirring Episodes Set in Alaskan Wildness. (Continued From Yesterday.) CHAPTER VII.—(Continued) The Out World. Bill knew the value of creating panic. As he came he. set up a yell. His men took It up and it sounded like the advance of a legion of de mons. In a moment they were caught in the whirl of battle and the flash of their weapons lit the scene, while the clatter of firearms and the hoarse-throated shouting gave an im pression of overwhelming force. Back reeled the yelling horde In face of the onslaught. Back and still back. Confuston with those press ing on behind set up a panic. The wretched creatures fell like flies in the darkness. Then canto flight. Headlong flight. The panic, which Bill had sought. In half an hour from the moment of the first break the position was restored. Within an hour Kars knew the battle of Belt river had been won. But it had'-been won at a cost he had never reckoned upon. The margin of victory had been the nar rowest. Abe had been able to com plete Ills work In the cold business like manner which was all bis own. The attack from the river was an unsupported diversion with forces limited to its need. Now nearly it had succeeded no doubt remained. But In that direction Abes heavy hand had fallen in no measured fash ion. Those of tlie landing party who were not awaiting burial on the fore shore were meeting death in the dc p waters of the swiftly flowing r\er. Even the smashed canoes were flotsam on the bosom of the tide. CHAPTER VIII. Harvest of Battle. No early renewal of the. nttacK need he expected and the next day Iv.irs unfolded the plans he had fo carefully thought out long months ago. .Joe Saunder. whose mentality limited him to a good fight, and the understanding of a prospector's craft, had neither demur nor sugges tion. Bill admitted ho had no better proposition to offer, and lie only stipulated that his share in the scheme should be completely ade quate. Abe protested at the work imposed upon him, but admitted its necessity. “Hit around this layout.'' he com plained, “punchin' daylight Into the lousy carcases of a bunch of neches, while you an’ Doc here get busy, seems to me a sort o' Sunday school game. Still, 1 guess this darn ol' camp needs holding up, an' if you need me here you can count me in to the limit." Half an hour later Peigan Charley was surprised into wakefulndSs un der the southern embankment, where Ik- had fallen asleep over his pipe ills boss was standing over him. gazing down at him with steady, gray, unsmilling eyes. The scout was sitting up in a moment. Kars gave him his instructions. That night passed without inci dent. Toward morning Kars and ; Bill were at the water's edge, search | ing the. black distance, while they I strained for a sound other than the echoes of the spasmodic rifle fire. "Charley'll find a trail if he hasn't broken his fool neck." Kars said. “You'd stake a roll on Charley.” Fill said, with an upward glance of amusement that was lost in the dark ness. "Sure," Kars gave a short laugh. “He's a mascot. Charley's got all the brains of his race, and he's loyal. He'l find atrail or break his fool neck—because I'm needing one. He's quite a boy—when you get him where you need him. I—" Kars broke off, listening acutely. Fill, too, was listening, his watch ful eyes turned northward. There was no muffle to the sound of the paddle now, and the waiting men understood. The Indian was lip against the full strength of the heavy stream, and, light as was his craft it was no easy task to breast it. For some minutes the rhythmic beat went on. Then the little vessel grated directly opposite them, with an axactness of Judgment in the darkness that stirred admiration. A moment later Peigan Charley was giving the results of his expedition in the language of his boss, of which he considered himself a perfect mas ter "Charley, him find him." he said with deep satisfaction. "Him mak’ plenty trail. Much climb. Muoh ev’rything. So.” Another night had settled over the camp. Peigan Charley's moecaslned feet carried him swiftly and silently to the side of the hunk on which his “boss" was sleeping. Kars awoke with a start. The touch of a brown hand upon his shoulder had ban ished completely the last of his deep slumber. "Boss come. Him dark—good.” The Indian had said all he felt to be necessary. "Everything ready?" Kars asked, strapping a revolver belt about his waist. "Boss Bill? Tie ready?” lie picked up liis heavy automatic lying on the table at the head of his bunk, and examined it with his fingers to ascertain if the clip of cartridges was full. He reached under the bunk for some spare clips. Then he drew on his pea jacket and buttoned It up. "Boss Bill all ready. Him by hos pital." "Good. Then come right on. Go tell Boss Bill. I go to the river.” The dusky Indian shadow melted away in the darkness. Kars watched ADVEBTISEMKNT.

A moment later lie pass'd down to the waters edge, only dl verging to exchange a few parting words with Abe Dodds who was in charge of the defences. Bill Brndeneil sat in t lie middle of the canoe. Knrs and the Indian were at the paddles, kneeling and re.sting against the struts. Kars was in ttie bow*. Ho was a skilled paddle, but just now the, Indian claimed responsibility for their des tination and tho landing. The rhythmic pressure of the paddles was perfectly muffled. The stream was with them. Tlie journey had lasted perhaps n quarter of an hour. Then a low spoken order came from the Indian "Charley tak' him," was all ho said and Kars, obediently shipped his paddle. Then came an exhibition or canoe ing which rewarded the white men for their faith iii their henchman Charley played with the light craft in the great volume of stream as a feather might yield to a gentle breeze. The canoe sidled into the .'■hero through a threatening shoal of rocky outcrop. Charley led the way over rocks, then came t» a halt anil uncoiled the , rawhido rope which lie had taken from the canoe. He paid it out, and passed one end of it to his boss. He fastened the other end abofit his waist. Halfway down ils length Hill took possession ot. it. It was a guiding life lifie so that those behind should not lose the trail. Then the upward strug gle began. It was a fierce effort, as Charley's information had indicated. It was a blind climb surrounded by every pitfall conceivable. Never for a. moment was Charley at .a loss. His movements were precise, definite. He threaded Ills way among tree 11 links and a tangle of undergrowth with a certainty that never faltered, lie surmounted jutting, slippery crags as though broad daylight marked out for him the better course. There were moments when lie stood on the brink of a black abyss into which heavy waters fell to a depth of thirty or forty feet. But always lie held the life-line so that the course lay clear behind him for those who had to follow. The tremendous climb terminated on the wooded crests of the walls of the great gorge. And the white men paused, thankful enough for the mo ment of relaxation, while Charley scouted for his bearing. But the pause was of the briefest. Charley was back almost before the tired muscles had relaxed. The briefest announcement in the scout's pigeon English and the journey was re sumed. A mile of the way lay over a stretch ot attenuated grass along a ridge that sloped away to the depths of a narrow valley, which converged upon the river some miles to the north. Then came a drop, a steady decline which brought them to a. wider and shallower part of flic .val ley they had been skirting. A shal low lapping stream crossed their path. They crossed nearly waist high, anil floundered out on the far hank. Then came a further groping progress through a thicket of sap lings and lesser growth. This passed, they emerged upon an up ward slope and firm patchy grass land. It was at the summit of this that the Indian paused. He was pointing with a lean forefinger. "Neche lodge," ho said. "Louis Creal him shack." A light was shining dimly In the distance. Nor did it need much un derstanding to realize that it came from bellii^l a primitive, cotton-cov ered window. "Good. How far?" It was Kars wdio spoke. "Piece down. Piece up. So. One mile. Bluff. Small piece. Bell river neches—plenty teepee." Again they moved forward. The ground fell away into a short dip. It rose again in the far side of the moist bottom, and its summit con A “Call Me Back, pS Pal o’ Mine” HV A Waltz Song whosi rlay-it-again swing and rhythm have perched it high among the year’* W BIG HITS. m Buy it—dance to W on Columbia New Proc i css Record ' A-3752 "Save the Last Walt* (or Me” is the good mea sure waltz on the other side.

The screening bluff to the northeast, without which on Indian village, however primitive, is complete. Th^y were not to p«»es through it. The scout turned off sharply to the left and moved down its length with swifth, untiring steps. Nor did he pause again till the great bluff was passed, and once more the square, yellow patch of light gazed out at them. With a brief explana tion the Indian yielded up his com mand. “Him Louis Creal.” he said pointing. Then he swung his arm to the right. “Him Indian lodge. Much teepee. Much dog." Under the deep hush of night the village of the Bell river terror slum bered. The raw-pelt teepees, their doors laced fast, stood up like shad owy mausoleums. The light was widely apart from the village. It was on a rising ground which over looked the surroundings. It was one of the many eyes of a low, large, rambling building, half store, half mere dwelling, which searched the movements of the degraded, tribe which yielded something approach ing slavery to the bastard white tnind which lurked behind them. There was no sign of life anywhere, beyond that yellow patch of light. The place was large and stoutly con structed. The heavy doveniled logs suggested the handicraft of (he white. Though no sound broke the still ness about tills habitation shadows were soon moving under ils outer walls. Gliding shadows moving wari ly, stealing as though searching out Its form, and measuring its vulner ability. They sovered for moments ut darkened window openings. The closed doors afforded attraction for them. For half an hour tho silent Inspection went on. Finally tho lighted window drew their whole at tention. and. for many minutes, noth ing further interested them. At last however, one figure passed away around an angle of tho building and disappeared in the direction of a. closed doorway. A second figure, larger than tho others, passed on in the direction of another door. The third, a slim, alert creature, remained at the window. In one hand he held a long, keen edged knife. In the other a heavy pistol. Within the building an equally silent scene was being enacted. The room was low roofed, with a coiling of cotton billowing downwards be tween the nails which held it to the rafters, it was half living-room, half store for Indian trade, and wholly lacking in any sort of order or clean liness. Hut the quality of the place was of less Interest than Its human occupants. There were two.
