CHAPTER I.
A LIFE GLORIOUSLY STAKED!
Toward the close of a beautiful day in June,
a man and woman, mounted upon fleet horses,
came galloping over one of the great plains of
the West, and drew reinin the shade of a clump
of cotton-woods upon the bank of a beautiful
rivMr'. They had ridden far and rapidly. Their
steeds were panting, and covered with sweat
and foam.
“ We must give the horses a breathing spell,”
said the former, dipping to the ground; and his
companion nodded a graceful assent, as she fol
lowed his example.
The couple were evidently father and daughter.
The man was in the prime of life, hale and
hearty, with a large frame, which was sinewy
and athletic, without ceasing to be refined and
prepossessing. He had the keen, shrewd look
peculiar to the advance-guards of civilization,
and there was an honest, frank expression on
his sun-browned face that proclaimed his integ
rity and courage. .
In her way, his daughter was equally pic
turesque and attractive.
In the early flash of womanhood, with a pure,
sweet and tonder face, with eyes darkly glowing,
with coral-tinted lips, and cheeks softly flushed
with the hue of the rose, with amber curls float
ing behind her, she was as graceful as a gazelle.
He looked from the hunter to his daughter in
agonized and mute supplication.
Dane snatched the glass from Miriam's bands
and placed it to his eyes.
He looked to the northward—saw his pretty
cottage, his wife busy at her needle under the
trees—and glanoed at the diin lino of the horizon
stretching away eastward and westward from his
home.
Suddenly the glass dropped from his hands—
his face blanched to the hue of snow. From the
west, seeming to emerge from the cloudB of scar
let and gold, he had beheld a band of mounted
Indians riding boldly towards that unprotected
home, towards that unconscious and helpless
woman.
With a frenzied cry, he pnt spurs to his horse,
and dashed away like a madman, shouting to his
daughter to follow him; at the same instant
Thompson staggered forward and fell in the
maiden’s path, holding up his hands in an
guish.
“My wife! my children!” he groaned.
There was no hesitation in the soul of the
brave Miriam.
‘Mine is but a single life: he has seven de
pending on him,” she said aloud.
As she spoke, she leaped from her saddle, and
with a gesture, commanded him to take her
place.
“But—your danger!” faltered Thompson.
.“The Indians—”
Miriam again pointed to the saddle.
“Go,” she commanded. “Think only of your
family, and be gone.”
Still Thompson hesitated, sweeping the hori
zon with eager glances to assure himself that
no immediate danger threatened. A change
came over his face as he looked, and he uttered
a wild cry, catching up the glass Mr. Dane had
let fall, and looking through it.
The sight he beheld convulsed him with ter
ror.
Not a mile away, to the west, he saw coming
over a ridge in the plain, and approaching rap
idly, a considerable body of mounted savages.
“TliAT’rA pnminv—a hand of red-skins—di-
light-hcarted as a bird, as lovely as a flower,

l.rnska, at a point fifty miles northwest of Fort
'''‘•Are you tired, Miriam?” asked the hunter,
George Dane, with fatherly solicitude.
••Tired, father?” rejoined the maiden, with a
happy laugh. “Oh, no. How could I be tired
after a day like this? Every minute hssbeen
filled with ploasure and excitement,
fn-sh as yonder bird.”
The father smiled underetandingly, with a look
full of the fondest affection.
••I eon guess the cause of your lightness of
heart,” stud he, smilingly. ‘-The return, now
daily expected, of a certain Hubert Earle, from
the mines of Idaho, may account, I suspect, for
yonr present gladness.”
A heightened color appeared on Miriam s face,
for the name mentioned was that of her lover.
She answered the glances of her father, howev-
ever, with a frankness that attested his entire
sympathy with her, and said:
“True, father, my heart has been unusually
light for several days past. How could it be
ot herwise, since I know that Hubert ia coming?
Mr. Dane did not reply. He was looking,
with kindling eyes, over the fair flower-dotted
plTm; and his next remark showed how widely
his thoughts had strayed.
“I wonder what mother has been doing with
out us all day, Miriam. She must be lonely
with no one to apeak to or share her meals.
Shouldn’t wonder if we could see our home
from this point,” and his face lighted up with a
soulful glow. “Our cottage is not more than
seven miles distant; let me see?”
He drew from his coat a pocket-glass, adjust
ed it to his sight, pointing it in a northerly di
rection, and gazed through it long and earnest
ly towards his ranche upon Carrey a Fork.
* “Yes, I seo it,” he said, at lost with a long
deep, and joyfnl inspiration, asifthe sight re
freshed him in every nerve. ^ rher ® “
cottage as plain as day. I can even see the vines
you planted before the windows, Miriam. And
there, on the grape-vine bench, under the big
elm sits your mother, busy at her sewing. Bless
her 1 She does not imagine we are looking at
her. Look, Miriam. _
Ho yielded the instrument to his daughter
who obeyed his injunction, herlovely face.glow
ing with smiles as she regarded the distant home-
“They’ro coming—a band of red-skins—di
rectly towards us'.he gasped. “I’mlost! Fly,
Miriam, while you have the time 1”
The maiden took the glass and gazed through
it an instant at the approaching foe. A strange
light appeared in her eyes—a light possessed
only by those upon whom God has bestowed a
consciousness of His great protection—the
light of a heroism which death itself cannot
master.-
‘Sure enough,” she murmured, “they are
coming 1 The leader is Bed Knife. Go, neigh
bor Thompson—on the instant 1”
“We can ride together 1” cried Thompson.
“No, the horse is tired. We have been to
Willow Island. We should be overtaken before
we had gone two miles.
“Then we’ll die together!”
“No, no! You must mount!”
With a grasp so sudden and firm that it star
tled him, the maiden pushed him towards the
horse, and in another instant he found himseif,
more by instinct than by thought, seated in the
saddle.
44 Away, Selim!” cried Miriam to her steed,
with an imperative gesture. “Away!”
The horse broke furiously over over the plain,
giving Thompson only time enough to flash a
look of gratitude towards the maiden, as he
dashed away to tho northeast, towards his men
aced home. . , _
A moment later, Mr. Dane looked over his
shoulder—took in at a glance the situation of
affaire, recognizing the peril as well as the hero
ism of his child—-bowed his head solemnly as,
one submits to the inevitable, in approbation
“ It is noon and we’ll hare dinner,” said the
lieutenant, observing that the baggage animals
with their drivers, were approaching. “Kindle
a fire, boys, and we H have steaks and roasts in
abundance.”
While this order was being carried into effect,
Hubert and several others were engaged in sur
veying the scene.
“A lonely and desolate-spot,” said Hubert,
thoughtfully. “It looks as if manhadnever be
fore visited it.”
And no wonder, returned Brydges, “since
it’s five miles off the route. What could any
ttird want here, unless he might be in pursuit of
buffaloes?” _
There being no answer to this question, Hu
bert proceeded to find an excellent grazing spot
for his horse, tethered him, and filing himself
on the ground in the shadow of the hifl. The
lieutenant and a portion of the men followed his
example.
Plenty of low bushes were found dry enough
to bum, and several fires were soon kindled.
The choicest portions of the buffaloes were
readily prepared for cooking, and it was not
long before the odor of burning flesh was dif
fused on the air; four or five hungry soldiers
serving as cooks.
It was a wild picnic scene on those lonely
wilds, and every man there enjoyed it with true
gipsy zest.
Suddenly a shout from one of the men who
were strolling around, arrested the attention of
the others.
“ Hallo, boys!” he cried. “Fm blest if here
isn’t a cave in the hill! Come, see the hole
under these bushes. You never saw anything
hidden neater in your lifea.”
“Janes th'nk» nobody ever saw a cave be
fore,” said one of the lounge re. “For my part,
I ‘binlr more of something to eat, than of a
hole in the ground.”
'Tbi. sentiment was echoed by the others, bnt
the inausitive cave disooverer, nothing daunted,
approached the fire, took from it a torch, re
turned to the butte, parted the bushes, reveal
ing a dark aperture in the face of tho rock, and
disappeared within it, his light giving back a

And Miriam, throwing herself flat upon the
ground, remained riono upon the plain, m the
very path of a score of mounted Indians, who
were galloping towards her with the swiftness of
the wind!
CHAPTER II.
. A CUM0U8 AND STARTLING MYSTERY!
Skirting the Black Hills, forty miles west of
Fort Laramie, a party of horsemen were riding
ea They had left Fort Bridger eight days before,
Mug the route of the North Platte, and were
now following the Oregom emigrant road, among
those long ridges, dry beds
plains, by which the region of the Black Hills
'"mobulkof the party consisted of ten cavalry
men, under a lieutenant, who were returning to
Fort Laramie, their post of duty. They were
well mounted, and hadsereral led horses in their
train, loaded with their provisions and appurte
nances of travel. . . -
The balance of the party comprised three ci
vilians, who had seized the opportunity of cross
ing the mountains under military escort. Two
- - ro emigrants who had settled near
■, bnt who had tired of the great sol
itude, or "been frightened by tho Indians, and
were now returning eastward in search of homes
nearer tne haunts of civilization.
The third civilian was Hubert Earle, the lover
of Miraim Dane, the settler’s daughter, whom
we have have just left in such deadly P®"J-

grossed, the minutes passed, and Jones
"ST&at fellow had found a gold mine in
there he wouldn’t call one of ns, growled the
lounger who had before spoken. 4 ‘I wonder
what Jones has fonnd. I’ll jest take a look, as
dinner isn’t ready.” ...
He arose lazily, abstracted a stick of burning
wood for a torch, proceeded to the cavern en
trance, and disappeared from view.
“Probably,” said Hubert, “there s a large
cavern under that -lull. If wo had tame, it
might pay to explore it. Under the present
circumstances, I am like Brown, and prefer my
dinner to scientific exploration.
The meal seemed to be nearly ready, for the
rattling of tin cups and dishes began to be heard;
the lieutenant’s small camp-chest was unpacked,
and the cooks shouted to the strollers to come to
dinner. . . , ,
“Have Jonea and Brown come back? asked
the lieutenant, as he rose to a sitting position,
and glanced towards the cavern.
The men replied in the negative. „
“Go after them King, and hurry them up,
said the officer. “ We must resume the march
after dinner, and can’t afford to waste time
^King, a fine young soldier, took a torch and
entered the cave. .
The dinner was dealt out—hot savory steaks
and roasts-the coffee measured, and the meri
commenced, but none of the men who had en
tered the cave made their appearance.

and impatiently. “ What can '
