BY CY WARVAN
When tney nad crossed the valley and
entered the wilderness of pine and ce- |
dar, they began to search for a side can- yon which would lead them down to
the main gulch. Having found a proper | ravine they watered and grassed their |
horses and had breukfast.
It was not yet noon, and the train, the dark man made out from the figures upon @ time card which he carried, would not leave the junction until 2 p.m. It would probably be 8 or 3:15 when it passed the mouth of the little rill upon which they were encamped.
Having breakfasted and smoked, the
men stretched themselves upon the ground, all save the dark man, and slept like tired children.
The leader, leaning against a moss covered spruce tree, watched a black storm that was brewing in the hills to the north. Presently he heard a sharp clap of thunder. In afew minutes there came the roaring sound of a waterfall. and the dark man knew that a cloud had given way, but as the main gulch was between him and the storm he gave the matter no serious thought.
At last the hour arrived. The four men, leaving their horses, descended te the main gulch only to find that there was no railroad there. Skinny, still smarting from the effect of the rather Bevere temperance lectures he had re- ceived the evening before, looked at the leader and started to laugh, but the dark man scowled and crushed him. He knew the country and knew that the road had been there, but was now washed away. A little way up the can- yon they came to the torn end of the track and knew for a surety that no train would come up the gulch that day.
The silent leader made no show of disappointment, but guictly dismissed his men and watched them ride away toward the sunset, with their broad hats tipped sidewise ard their ever ready rifles resting across their saddles. For himself he would have no rifle. ‘Only a coward or bungler,"’ he used to eay, ‘‘will carry a cannon to do the work of a .45.’’
When the others had passed out of sight, the dark man reined his own horse down the canyon, intending, since he was so near, to visit his wife at the junction. The recent washout had left the bed of the gulch almost im- passable, and it was not until efter midnight that the lone traveler came t6 the abandoned train, lying like a liv- ing thing that kad fallen asleep on its own trail. Finding the express car lock- ed, he opened one of the doors with the
‘coal pick which he found on the engine. The little iron safe was securely locked. ving removed all the explosives from the car, this experienced mountainccr quietly blew up the safe with a fe, sticks of dynamite, but there was ao money init. By the light of the engi- meer’s torch he managed to read a letter tuat had been left there by the messe-- ger, and which was addressed to the ex- press ngent. As the explorer finished reading it he gave a low, soft whistle of surprise—not much above a whisper— for he was a quiet, undemonstrative man.
From the car he returned to the en- gine and with the clinker hook fished an old clay stainea ore sack out of the tank. When he had cacked the sack in the bed of the river, he hurried away in the direction of the junction, urging his horse over the rough ground as though he were bent upon a new and
important mission.
CHAPTER MI.
There was great cxcitement at the junction when we arrived without the express messenger, who acted as postal clerk as well.
When the local express agent learned that the messenger was not with the rescued party, that the conductor had been unable to find him, and that no one could remember having seen him tince we stopped end he was ecen head- ing for high land with his register pouch and some packages of express matter bearing red seals, he began to wire in all directions. In a little while mounted men were dashing out toward the hills so as to be ready to take the
rail at dawn.
It was plain enough, the agent ar- gued, that the messenger had taken ad- vantage of the circumstances and clear- ed out with the weaith in his posses- sion. A-thousand dollars’ reward was offered for the capture of the messenger.
A deputy sheriff made up a posse of four, including himself, and put out for the scene of the robbery. They were among the first to leave town, and, as they all knew the country, were soon upon the ground where the open and e1upty safe left little to be explained.
The safe, they argued, had been blown up by the messenger for a blind, but they ‘would not be fooled.
The messenger, it would seem, had remained in the vicinity of the washout until the train was abandoned, and then set out upen a long tramp throngh the trackless hills. He knew the packages that were most valuable, and with these he filled his pockets. The gold he must leave, for the journey would be a tire- frome one. The country, which was new to him, was extremely rough. At times he found himself at the bottom of a ceep gorge, and again at the tcp of a steep bluff, and saw before him a black and apparently bottomless abyss. There wus no mocn, but the friendly stars would guide him. Pike's peak, stand- ing high against tho sky, showed him where the east was, while the Green- horn range rose rough and abrupt to the west. But when he had been upon his journey less tham an hour, a gray cloud huag like a heavy fog on the hills and shut out all the light from the heavens and obscured the earth. Instead of wait- ing for the mists to clear away, he kept on going and wajs soon: hopelessly lost, so far as any knwledge of the points of the compass{ was concerned. Ie misht,for ashat he knew, he headed for
—
the direction of the junction and the state’s prison,
At last, having reached what appear- ed to be the summit of a little hill, he sat down upon a huge rock to rest. As he sat there he thought he heard a sound like that produced by horses stepping about on a stone fleor. Presently the clond rolled away, and although the valley below was still obscured, the stars Were bright above and the crecs of the main range stood out clean cut against the western sky. Before him he saw Pike’s peak and knew that a little way below him, hid in the mist, lay the junction.
The sheriff and his posse, lost in the fog, had halted in a small basin and Were Waiting for the clouds to clear away. The sheriff insisted that he had
heard a man cough, and new the little party Were sitting their horses in si- lence, which was broken only by the beryous tramping of a broncho. ‘‘What’s thavr* asked the sheriff, poirume to the rock above them. ‘‘I should say it was a bear sitting on his haunches,’’ said one of the men. ‘‘I’ll just tap it with a cartridge,’’ continued the last but at that moment one of the horses gave a snort, and instantly the figure of the big messenger rose from the rock and stood out against the dark blue sky. Until now he bad been sitting barehead ed, and that gave him the bunchy look of a bear, but when he stmod up and clapped his bell topped cap upon his head the sheriff recognized him in an instant.
‘*Let’s drop him,’’ said one of th: men. ‘“There’s a thousand in it and if he ever Jeaves that rock he’s gone.”’
‘*Hold,’’ said the sheriff. ‘‘We must give him a show to surrender.”’
When the four men had swung their guns into position, the sheriff command- ed the messenger to throw up his hands. Instead of obeying the man turned as if he intended to bolt, and with the first move of his body the four rifles cracked almost as one gun, and the messenger went down.
Throwing the bridle reins over the necks of the horses, the sheriff’s poss¢ dismounted and hurried up the little hill, but when they reached the spot where the messenger had stood there was no messenger or sign of messenger. Anticipating the rain of lead, he had dropped behind the rocks while the bul- lets passed over his head, and by the time the posse had reached the crest of the hill and recovered from their sur- prise the messenger was far up the side of the mountain, hiding among the crags.
‘“‘What d’ you say now, cap?’ asked the man who had been anxiots to earn the reward. ‘‘Do we git 'im nex’ time er do we let ‘im go?’’
“‘Git ’im,’’ said the sheriff, and the posse returned to their horses.

CHAPTER IV.

him of the approach of day. His only hope was in reaching a point beyond which the horsemen might not ride, end he hurried on up to the narrow gulch. At the exit his trail was blocked by cne; of the deputies, and immediat< ly both men opened fire. Now for the first time, since it shot muzzle first into the river, the messenger thought of his ri- fic. He was by no means an expert With a six shooter, but managed to hit the officer’s horse with his first ballet, and at tho same instant a slug of lead from a winchester crashed through his left shoulder, leaving it shattered and useless. The deputy’s horse, having re- ccived his death wound, plunged wildly and made it impossible for his rider to take accurate aim. Dropping his rifle, the officer began to use his revolver, but a chance shot from the mess¢ nger’s .45 pierced his heart. Another y lunge of the horse hurled him to th« ger was horrified to

He crashed through a low, broad cedar, and a moment later leaped over a precipice and went roll- ing down the splintered side of a deep gorge, and when the sheriff and his companions came up the gulch ther found, where the horse and rider had falien, one mangled mass of torn and tattered ficsh.
