VENGEANCE. • Soldiers, hunters, scouts, emi- grants, Indians—all are drinking and hrawlin_g_ai_ the fort. The Indians drink deeply, the destination of the scojit. In- stinct guided him to make' short cuts and-pick up the trail again. Here the iron hoofs of the horse were plain on the turf—there only the eyes of an Indian could see that a hody had passed. For hours and hours the pace never changed. He looked neither to the right nor left—cared for neither bird nor beast—for shrub or rock or serpent—for only one thing in the whole world—vengeance. Noon found him keeping his pace-—night found him keeping the trail with the grim ferocity of a bloodhound. It was' only when night fairly settled down that he halted beside a rock, ate a few mouthfuls of food, and curled himself up for a nap. Two hours later the rim of a full moon showed above the plain, and its first rays had scarcely been cast when the warrior opened his eyes, sprang to his feet, and was away on the trail again. Hour after hour he followed it—hour by hour the night grew old and faded into day when daylight came the track was fresher. While the scout slept death had made a de- cided gam. The second day pass- ed as thedarst. The seconct night passed as the other. On the morning of the third a mist lay over plain and valley and hill. It rose from the brown turf —from the^ugerock#—from 4he^ thickets of cedar and fir on the ragged hillsides. The eye of neither man nor beast nor bird could penetrate that curtain of morning.

Noth- ing but death can satisfy his ven- geance.\ When the scout became sober and knew what he had done he realized the force of the old man's words. Henceforth, waking or sleeping, a menace must follow every hour of his life. He must cither kill or be killed. ****** The days ran past and the inci- dent was forgotten by all save one* It was a season of peaces and one less or one more Indian at the fort attracted no attention. If anyone looked in vain for the young warrior, who had the blood of a great chief in his veins, they made no remark or inquiry. The scouts had little to do for a couple of months, but then came an alarm. A band of warriors had broken away from their reservation and _. . were raiding the settlers.
