[Copyright ISO+, by Bret Harte.] Dawson was not astonished, the next Booming, to see Maj. Overstone and the 3iilf-bived walking together down the gully road. For lie Imd already come to the conclusion that the major was plan ning some extraordinary reprisal against ihe invaders that would insure the per petual security of the camp. That he ihould use so insignieant and unimpor tant a tool now appeared to him to be }uite natural, particularly as the service ftas probably one in which the man jvould be sacrificed. "The major." he mggested to his companions, "aiu't toing to risk a white man's skin when ac can get an Jnjin's hide handy.'' The reluctant, hesitating step of the half-breed as they walked along seemed to give some color to this hypothesis, lie listened sullenly to the major as he pointed out the strategic position of the bar. "That wagon road is the only ap proach to Wynyards, and a dozen men ttlonc the rocks could hold it against a hundred. The trail that you came by, over the ridge, drops straight into this gully, and you saw what that would mean to any blanked fools who might try. Of course, we could be shelled iium that ridge if the sheriff had a howitzer, or the men also knew how to work one, but eveu then we could oc cupy the ridsre before them. He paused a moment and then added: "I used to be in ihe army, Tom; I saw service in Mexico before that cub you got away from had his first trousers. 1 was brought up as a gentleman— blank it all!— and here 1 am!" The man slouched on by his side, casting his surly, furiive glances from left to right as if seeking to escape from these confidences. Nevertheless the major kept on through the gully, until reaching the wagon road they crossed it and beiran to ascend the opposite slope, half bidden by the underbrush and larches, llere the Major paused again aim faced about. The cabins of the settlement were already behind the bluff; the little stream which indicated the "bar," on which some perfunctory mining was still con tinued, now and then rang out quite clearly at their feet, although the bar Itself had disappeared. The sounds of occupation and' labor had at last died out in the distance. They were quite alone. The major sat down ou a boul der, and pointed to another. The man. however, remained sullenly standing where he was,as if to accent as strongly as possible the enforced companionship. Either the major was too self-absorbed to notice it, or accepted it as a satisfac tory characteristic of the half-breed race. He continued confidently: "Now look here, Tom ! I want to leave this cursed hole and get clear out of the state! Anywhere!— over the Oregon line into British Columbia, or to the coast, where I can get a coasting vessel down to Mexico! It will cost money, out I've got it! It will cost a lot of lisks, but I'll rake them! I want somebody to help me— some one to share risks with me, and some one to share my luck if 1 succeed. Help to put me on the other side of the border line, by sea or land, and I'll give you a thousand doilars down before we start— and a thousand dollars when I'm safe." The half-breed had changed his douching attitude. It seemed more in dolent on accountof the loosely hanging \3"£^ /•111 •theije," he said savagely, "go o>\ WE'ltß EQUAL." Jtrap that had once held his haversack, which was still worn in a slovenly fashion over his shoulder, as a kind of lazy sling for his shiftless hand. "Well, Tom, is it a go? You can trust me.tor you'll have the thousand in your pocket before you start. I can trust you, for I'll kill you quicker than light ning if you say a word of this to any one before 1 go or play a single trick on me afterward." Suddenly the two men were rolliug over and over in the underbrush. The lialf breed had thrown himself upon the major, bearing him down to the ground. The haversack strap for an instant whirled like the loop of a lasso in the air and descended over the major's shoulders, pinioning »iis arms to his tide. Then the half breed, tearing open his rageed blouse stripped off his waist belt, and as dexterously slipped it over the ankles of the struggling man. It was all over in a moment. Neither had spoken a won*. Only their rapid panting broke the silence. Each prob ably knew that no outcry would be overheard. For the first time the half-brepd sat down. But there was no trace of tri umph or satisfaction in his face, which wore the same lowering look of disgust as he »razed upon the prostrate man. "I want to tell you first," he said, slowly wiping his face, "that I didn't kalkilate upon doin' this in this yer kind o' way. 1 expected more of a stan' up fight from yoi — nore risk in gettin' you out o' that hole— and a different kind of a man to tackle. 1 never expected you to play into my hand like this, and it goes against me to hey to take advan tage of it." •'Who are you?" said the major, pant ingly. "I'm the new sheriff of Siskiyou." He drew from beneath his begrimed shirt a paper wrapping, from which he sringerly extracted with the ends of his dirty fiußersa clean, legal-looking fold ed paper. "That's my warrant; I've kept it fresh for you. 1 rekon you don't care to read it— you've seen it afore. It's just the same as t'other sheriff had— what you shot." "Then this was a plant of yours and that whelp's escort?" said the major. "Neither him nor the escort knows any more about it than you," returned the sheriff, slowly. "I enlisted as Injin guide or scout ten days ago. 1 deserted just as reg'lar and nat'ral like when we passed that ridge yesterday. I could be tooK tomorrow by the sojers, if they caught sight o' me, and court martialed —it's as reg'lar as that! But I timed to have my posse, under a deputy, draw you off by an attack just as the escort reached the ridge. And here I am." "And you're no half-breed?" "There's nothin' Injin about me that water won't wash off. I kalkiiatei you wouldn't suspect anything so iustenifi cani as an Injin when I fixed myself up. You see Dawson didn't banter after me much. But I didn't reckon on your tumbling to me so quick. That's what gets me! You must hev' been pretty low down for kempany when yoe took a man like me inter your confidence. I don't see it yet." He looked inquiringly at his captive with the same wondering surliness. Nor could he understand another thing which was evident. After the first shock of resistance, the major had ex hibited none of the indignation of a be trayed man, but actually seemed to ac cept the situation with a calmness that • **^ N^ tfP^ % "AN UNDEFINABLE TERROR WAS IN THE AIR." his captor lacked. His voice was quite unemotional as he said: "And how are you goiug to get ir.e away from here?" "That's my lookout, and needn't trouble you, Major; but, seeing as how confidential you've been to me, 1 don't mind tellin' you. Last night that posse of mine that you 'skunked,' you know, halted at the crossroads till them sol diers went by. They has only to see them to know that I had got away. They'll hang round the crossroads till they see my signal on top of the ridge, aud then they'll make another show agin' that pass. Your men will have their hands full, I reckon, without huntin' for you or no ticin' the three men o' mine that will come along this ridge where the sodiers come yesterday— to help mo get you down in the same way. You see, Major, your little trap in that gully ain't in this fight! we're the other side of it. I ain't much of a soldier, but I reckon I've got you there; and it's all owing to 3'ou. I ain't," he added gloomily, "lakiu' much pride in it myself." "1 shouldn't think you would," said the major, "aud look here! I'll double that offer I made you just now. Set me down just as 1 am, ou the aeck of some coasting vessel, and I'll pay you £4,CK)O. You may have all the glory ot having captured me here, and of mak ing your word good before your posse. But you cau arrange afterward ou the way to let me give you the slip some where near Sacramento." The sheriff's face actually brightened. "Thanks for that, major. I was gettin' a little sick of my share in this job. but, byCiod! you've put some sand in me. Weii, then, there ain't gold enough in Californy to make me let you go! You hear me; so drop that. I've took you, and took you'll remain until 1 land you in Sacramento jail. I don't want to kill you, though your life's forfeit a dozen times over, aud 1 reckon you don't care lor it either way, but if you try any tricks on me 1 may have to maim ye to make you come along com'fabl-j and easy. 1 ain't hankerin' arter that.either, but come you shall." "CJiv' your sienal and have au end of this, 1 ' said the major, curtly. The sheriff looked at him again, curiously, "i never had my hands in another man's pockets before, major, but 1 reckon I'll have to take your der riogers from yours." lie slipped his hand into the major's waistcoat and secured the weapons. "I'll have to trouble you for your sash, too," he said, unwinding trie knitted silken girdle from the captive s waist. "You won't want it, you ain't walking, and it'll come in handy to me, just now." He bent over, and, passing it across the major's breast with more gentle ness and solicitude than lie had ye t shown, secured him In an easy sluing posture aeainst the tree. Tnen, after carefully trying the knots, and rtrspa £HE &AINT PAUL DAILY GLOBE. SUNDAY MOUNTING. FEBRUARY 18, 1894— SIXTEEN PAGES. that held his prisoner, he turned and lightly bounded up the hill. He was absent scarcely ten minutes; yet when he returned the major's eyes were half closed. But not his lipt. "If you expect to hold mo until your posse comes you had better take me to some less exposed position," he said, drily. "There's a man just crossed the gully coming iuto the brush below in the wood." "None of your tricks, major." "hook for yoursolt!" The sheriff glanced quickly below him. A man with an ax on his shoul der could be seen plainly making his way tnrough the underbrush not a hun dred yards away. The sheriff instantly clapped his haud upon his captive's mouth, but at a look from his eyes took it away again. "1 see," he said, grimly. "You don't want to lure that man wiihin reach of my revolver by calling to him." "I could Imve called him while you were away," returned the major.quietly. The sheriff, with a darkened face, loosened the sash that bound his pris oner to the tree, and then, lifting him in his arms, began to ascend the hill cautiously, dipping into the heavier shadows. But the assent was difficult, the load a heavy one, and the sheriff was agile rather than muscular. After a few minutes' climbing he was forced to pause and rest hU burden at the foot of a tree. But the valley and the niau in the underbrush were no longer in view. "Come," said thti major, quietly, "un strap my ankles and I'll walk np. We'll never get there at this rate." The sheriff paused, wiped his grimy face with his grimier blouse, and stood lookiug at his prisoner. Then he said slowly: "Look yer! Wot's your little game? Blessed if I kin follow suit." For the first time the major burst into a rage. "Blast it all! Don't you see that If I'm discovered here, in this way, there's not a man on the bar who would believe that I walked into your trap — not a man. by God! who wouldn't think It was a trick of yours aud mine together." "Or," interrupted the sheriff, slowly fixing his eyes on his prisoner, "not a man who would ever trust Maj. Overton for a leader again." "Perhaps," said the major unmovedly again. "I don't think either of us would ever get a chance of being trusted agaiu by any one." The sheriff still kept his eyes on his prisoner, his gloomy face growing dark er under its grime. "That ain't the reason, major. Life and death mean much more to you thau they do to me. in this yer game. I know that you'd kill me quicker nor lightning if you got the chance; you know that I'm takin' you to the gallows." _ "The reason is that I want to leave vvynyard's Bar," said the major coolly. "And even this way out of It will suit me." The sheriff took his revolver from his pocKet and deliberately cocked it. Then leaning down, he unbuckled the strap from the major's ankles. A wild hope that his incomprehensible captive might seize that moment to develop his real intent; that he might fly, fight, or in some way act up to his reckless reputa tion, sustained him for a moment, but in the next proved futile. The major only said, "Thank you, Tom," and stretched his cramped legs. "Get up and ko on," said the sheriff, roughly. The major began to 3lowly ascend the hill; the sheriff close on his heels, alert, tingling and watchful of every move ment. Fora few moments this strain upon his faculties seemed to invigorate him, and his gloom relaxed, but pres ently it became too evident that the prisoner's pinioned arms made it im possible for him to balance or help him self on that steep trail, and once or tsvice he stumbled and reeled danger ously to one side. With an oath the sheriff caught him and tore from his arms the only remaining bonds that fettered him. "There!" he said sav agely; "go ou— we're equal." Without replying, the major contin ued Ins ascent; It became steeper as they neared the crest, and at last they were both obliged to drag themselves up by clutching the vines and under brush. Suddenly the major stopped with a listening gesture. A strange roaring— as of wind or water— was dis tinctly audible. "How did you signal?" asked the mnjor. abruptly. '•Made a smoke," said the sheriff as abruptly. "I thought so. Well, you've set the wood on fire." They both plunged upward aeain, now tiuite abreast, vying with each other to reach the summit, as if with the one thought only. Already the sting and smart of acrid fumes were in their eyes and nostrils. When they at last stood on level ground again it was hidden by a thin him of grayishbiue haze that seemed to be creeping niong it. But above was the clear sky, seen through thu interlacing boughs, and to their surprise, they who had just come from the breathless.stairnant hillside, a fierce wind was blowing! But tf'ie roaring was louder than before. '•Unless your three men are already here your game is op," said the major calmly. "The wind ulow.s dead along the ridge where they should come, and they can't get through the sjinok^and lire." It was indeed true! .In - the - scarce twenty minutes that had elapsed since the sheriff's return the dry and brittle underbrush for half a mile on either side had lieen converted into a sheet of tlaine. which at times rose to :i furnace Bloat through the mil ctiiuiney-ilKe ion ductors oX three shafts, from WlluSO Highest 01 all in Leavening Power. — Latest U. S. Gov't Report ABSOLUTELY PURE shriveled side bark were crackling and lighted dead limbs falling in all direc tions. The whole valley, the gully, the bar. the very hillside they had just left, were blotted out by creeping, stifling smoke-fog, that scarcely rose breast hitrh.but was beaten down or cut off cleanly by the violent wind that swept the higher level of the forest. At times this gale became a sirocco in temperature, concentrating its heat In withering blasts which they could not face or focusing its intensity upon some mass of foliage that seemed to shrink at its touch and open a scathed andqu verlng aisle to its approach. The enormous skeleton of a dead and rotten redwood, not a hundred yards to their right, broke suddenly like a gigantic firework into sparks and flame. The sheriff had grasped the full meaning of their situation. In spite of his first error— the very carelessness of familiarlcy — his knowledge of wood craft was greater than his companions', and he saw their danger. "Come," ho said, quickly, "we must make for an opening or we shall be caught." The major smiled in misapprehen- "Who could catch us here?" The sheriff pointed to the blazing tree. "That," he said. "In five min utes it will have a posse that will wipe us out." He caught the major by the arm and rushed him into the smoke, and appar ently in the direction of the greatest mass of flame. The heat was suffocat ing, but it struck the major that the more they approached the actual scene of conflagration the heat and smoke be came less, until he saw that the fire was letreating before them and the follow ing wind. In a few moments their haven of safety— the expanse already burned over— came in sight. Here and there, seen dimly through the drifting smoke, the scattered embers that still strewed the forest floor glowed in weird, nebulous spots like will o' the wisps. For an instant the major hesitated; the sheriff cast a significant glance behind them. "Go on; it's our ouly chance," he said imperatively. They darted on, skimming the black enad or smouldering surface which at limes struck out spark and flame from their heavier footprints as they passed. Their boots crackled and scorched be neath them; their shreds of clothing were on fire; their breathing became more difficult, until, providentially, they fell upon an abrupt, fissure-like de pression of the soil, which the fire had leaped, and into which they blindly plunged and rolled together. A moment of relief and coolness followed as they crept along the fissure filled with damp and rotting leaves. "vVhy not stay here?" said the ex hausted prisoner. "And be roasted like sweet potatoes when these trees catch." returned the sheriff, grimly. "No." Even as hte spoke a dropping rain of fire spattered through the. leaves from a splintered redwood, before overlooked, that was now blazinir fiercely in the upper wind. A vague and undefinable terror was in the air. The conflagration no longer seemed to obey any rule of direction. The incendiary torch had passed invis ibly everything. They scrambled out of the hollow and again dashed desper ately forward. Beaten, bruised, blackened, and smoke-grimed, looking less human than the animals who had long since deserted the crest, they at last limped into a "wind opening" iv the woocts that the fire had skirted. The major sank ex baustedly to the ground; the sheriff threw himself beside him. Their strange relations to each other seemed to have been forgotten; they looked and acted as if they no longer thought of anything beyoud the present. Aud when the sheriff finally arose, and. dis appearing for several "minutes, brought his hat full of water for the prisoner from a distant spring that they had passed in their flight, he tound him where he had left him, unchanged aud unmoved. He took the water gratefully, and after a pause fixed his eyes earnestly upon his captor. "I want you to do a favor to me." he said slowly. "I'm not going to offer you a bribe to do it either, nor ask you anything that isn't in a line with your duty. I think I under stand you now, if 1 didn't before. Do you know Briggs' restaurant in Sacra mento?" The sheriff nodded. "Well, over the restaurant are my private rooms— the finest in Sacramento. Nobody knows it but Briggs, and he has never told. They've been locked ever since I left; I've got the key still in my pocket. Now when we get to Sacramento, instead of taking me straight to jail I want you to hold me there as your prisoner for a day and night. I don't want to get away; you can take what precautions you like— surround the house with policemen and sleep yourself in the anteroom . I don't want todestioy any papers or evidence; you can go through the rooms and examine everything before and afier; 1 only want to stay there a day and night; L want 10 be in my old rooms; have my meals from the restaurant as 1 used to, and sleep iv my own bed once more. I want to live for one day liko a geutle niKii, as I used to liva before I came here. Tnat'a all. It isn't much, Tom; you can do it and say you require to do it to get evidence against me, or that you want to .search the rooms." The expression of wonder which had come into the sheriff's face at the be ginning of this speech deepened into his old look of surly dissatisfaction. "And that' 3 all you want," he said gloomily. "Ye don't want no friends— no lawyer? lor 1 tell you straight out, major, there ain't no hope for ye when the law once gets hold of ye In Sacra mento." "That's all. Will you do it?" The sheriff's face grew still darker. Atter a pause he said: "I dou't say •no,' and 1 don't say 'yes.' But," he added trrimiy, "it strikes me we'd better wait till we get clear o' these woods before you think o' your Sacramento lodt;iiii;s." The major did not reply. The day had worn on. but the fire now com pletely encircling them opposed any passage iv or out of that fateful barrier* The smoke ot the burning underbrush-' hung low around them in a bank equally, impenetrable to visiou. They were as alone as shipwrecked sailors in an island girdled by a horizon of cluuds. "I'm going to try to sleep," said the' major; "if your men come, you can waken me." •'And if your men come?" said the sheriff dryly. "Shoot me." He laid down, closed his eye 3, and. to tne ' sheriff's astonishment, presently tell asleep. The sheriff, with his chin, in his grimy hauds.sat and watched him as the day slowly darkened around them, and lie distant tires came out in more lurid intensity. The tace of. the captive ; and outlawed murderer was singularly peaceful; that of tue captor and man of duty was haggard, wild and 1 perplexed. ';■ Bill even this changed soon. The sleeping man stirred restlessly and tin easily his face began to ; work, his lips to mow. "l\>ml" he gasped suddenly, ••rum!" ; : , ' . , J The sheriff bent over him eagerly.' The sleeping • man's eves were still closed; beads of sweat stood uuuii His i).- ?:i.m I- ii> w.w it re i uin :.

That cub of West Point knows it aud despis ,s me, seelnir me here I n such company. That sergeant knows it— l recommended him for his first stripes— for all he tauuts rue.d— n him!" "Come! wake up!" said the sheriff, harshly. The prisoner did not heed him; the sheriff shook him roughly.so roughly that the major's waistcoat and shirt dragged open and disclosed his fine silk undershirt, delicately worked and em broidered with golden thread. At the sight of this abased and faded magnifi cence the sheriff's haud was stayed; his eye wandered over the sleeping form before him. Yes, the hair was dyed. too;near the roots it was quite white and grizzled; the pomatum was coming off the pointed moustache and imperial ;the face In that light was very haggard ; the lines from the angle of the nostril and mouth were like deep half-healed gashes. The major was, without doubt, prematurely worn and played out. The sheriff's perslsteut eyes, however, seemed to effect what the ruder hand could not. The sleeping man stirred, awoke to full consciousness, and sat up. "Are they here? I'm ready," he said calmly. "No," said the sheriff.deliberately. "I only woke ye to say that I've been thiukin' over what you asked of me, and if we get to Sacramento all right, why I'll do it and give ye that day and night at your old lodgings." "Thank you." The major reached out his hand ; the sheriff hesitated, and then extended his own. The bands of the two men elapsed for the first, and it would seem the last time. For the "cub of West Point" was, like most cubs, irritable when thwarted. And having been balked of his prey, the de serter, and possibly chaffed by his com rades for his profitless invasion of Wyn yard's Bar, he had persuaded his com manding officer to give him permission to effecc a recapture. Thus it came about that at dawn, filing along the ridge, on the outskirts or the fire, his heart was gladdened by the sight of the half breed, with his hanging hammock belt and tattered army tunic, evidently still a fugitive, not a hundred yards away on the other side of the belt of fire, running down the hill with another ragged figure at his side. The com mand to "halt" was enforced by a single rifle . shot over the fugitives' heads— but they still kept on their right. Then the boy officer snatched a carbine from one of his men. a volley flang out from the little troop- the shots or the privates mercifully high, those of the officer and sergeant leveled with wounded pride and full of deliberate purpose. The half-breed fell, so did his companion, and, rolling over together, both lay still. ... .' ■ ,-r I But between the hunters and their fallen quarry roared the cheval de frise of flame and fallen timuer.irnpossible to cross. The young officer hesitated, shrugged his shoulders, wheeled his f men. and left the fire to correct any irregularity in his action. - j It did not, however, change contem poraneous history. For a week later, when Wynvard's Bar discovered Maj. Overstone lying beside the man now recognized by them as the disguised sheriff of Siskivou, they rejoiced at this unfailing evidence of their lost leader's unequalled prowess. That he hadagain killed a sheriff and fought a whole posse, yielding only with his life, was never doubted, and kept his memory green in bierran chronicles long after Wynyard'a Bar had itself become a memory.
