And tiio doso.it night holds many secrets for those who oaro to hear them; but it. did not 'Vim- pet* the darkest of them to ’Lisli that night. The air came warm aud then chill, as she passed through the different strata that were from low, hot pin in or frigid mountain-top. Old Jim was so slow. lie. minded no more the flicks from the strap-cml than ho did the brush ing of tho greasowood past his lean form. Ho did make a plunge now and then; but that was* when a oactus-spiuo pricked his side. At last tho girl readied tho canon, which seemed to bo done in black and white, so light did tho moon make tho exposed parts, and so inky were the shadows, It was frightfully quiet in there. As she went along, she heard the whinny of her father’s horse, tethered beside the wall of rock. She loft Old Jim to munch the mosquito near by, while she tripped up a steep trail, and came to tho gash her father had made with pick aud shovel in tho lone canon- side. There lie was, sitting on the ground and leaning against a rock. The moon Blione upon Ills patched overalls and upon his dusty shirt; but she could not see his face, for his head was bent forward and was hidden by tho brim of hUslpuch hat. “Pap,” her sharp voice stabbed the quiet, “I caino up ter see ef you was ever coinin’ home.

[ijri ( the Fame heat that throbbed over the 't ’ 'desert and warped the sky-line was curling tho shakes atop the shack nnd sending every breathing thing on Alkali Plat, even to tho lizards, into the shade. There were just three rooms in tho shack, and ’Dish’s was tho end one, next to tho kitchen. The little house was closed as tight as a drum to keep iu whatever of the night's coolness re mained in it, which was little enough. ’Lish—the whole of it was Alicia—sat in her room, and talked with her mother, who was peeling potatoes iu the kitchen. Although in separate rooms, their sharp, Missourian voices were clear enough to each other. There was just one thing to- talk about, and nearly everything on earth that could be said about it had been said, so they had been going over it all again. It was pap’s big strike. “It ain't dead sure, ye know, ’Lish,” wound up the mother; “but it looks as near like it us one jack-rabbit looks like ernothcr.” “01’ pap’s workin’ awful hard, ain’t he, maw?” “I reckon he is.” ’Lish looked out through tho small window. Her glance shot past the two rails that glimmered under the angry sun, down there try Alkali Plat Station, past the two scurrying dust demons that showed there was air in motion some where, evou though sporadically, and awHy over to tho bluo buttes. There wn.s a notch in the tar butte— Scrub Canon, they called it. Pap was working there in that notch, under that awful sun, in the restless way that pap always worked. He was thcro alone, digging his pick into the dry ground and scanning each clod and broken rock for tho yellow specks that meant so much to him, and that were to put something uetter than a shuko roof over their heads. She felt for him that horrible heat; she saw the drops of sweat trickle from his brow and plash upon tho rocks, making their dark mark there for au instant and ;«PjjoVc he'n ti-w affixing' out fer -yo, fititffatcUin’ till our eyes was most’give out, while you’ve he'n up hero bavin?.ji good ol’ guzzlin’ time, all by >yors'clf, an’ not carin’ a cuss.

The touch froze her. She felt his heart. Tho throb •wus gone out, of it. “Pup, pup I” and all Uiu canon heard her sharp, desolate cry; “my ol’ pap! Ho ainldead?" A big lizard went scutteiingdown tho slope, an owl in a scrub-oak near by gave a dismnt hoot, and tho coyotes set up their throaty howls. She gulped and gasped. Her breath seemed cut off. She would have fallen at his side, but tbat tier ear caught the coyotes' howls and caught, too, their horrible meaning. Shu stayed herself by her two hands against the rock and tried to got her breath. The coyotes howled again, in awful chorus, and she shuddered. “They shan’t get you, pap; they shan’t get you. I'll take you home.” Iter breath name free as she spoke. She grasped the dead man’s shoulders, aud, keeping ns much of his body from the ground ns she could, she draggo l him down the rocky trail, toward the spot where tho horses were tethered. She winced when she hoard his boot- heels scratch the ground, but she pul led and tugged with all her might, and, panting, she laid his form near Old Jim, who snorted and jumped and pricked up his ears. Then, with a glance backwark from time to time, she went to her father’s little camp, took his axe, and cut two poles, with which she made a “dust-trailer,” the poles being hound to Old Jim’s sides like shafts, with pieces of strap and bale-rope. She lifted the body again, to put it op the rude con veyance. The moon struck it full this time, and, as she rolled it over gently upon the trailer, she saw a big clot of blood on the hack of tho dark shirt, nnd by it was a clean-cut lmllot-holo. With a shudder, she lot tho body fall. Then she looked at her hands. There was blood upon alretu uud upon the sleeve of her dress. “Claim-jumpers!” She set her teeth hard when she thrust forth the words, uud clenched her hand otes followed her, and almost rent tier heart bf their howls, but sho kept on, and before midnight tho sad little pro cession reached the cabin. The mother was still up, and sho ran to the door when she heard the stuntd of tho hoofs, “Is that you, ’Lish?” she called oilt; “Did ye bring pap home? Is it a dead- sure strike?" ’Lish slid from tier horso and ran to tho door. “Maw, Maw, Maw I" was her cry. “Maw, they’ve killed Him I Thoy’va killed poof old pap I’ 1 It was a month after they had laid tho old mad iu the whito earth, nnd tho wind was whispering ihroUgh the sage brush nnd scattering its gray loaves on his grave. ’Lish was up in tho canon, behind tho very rock where she had found her dead father. Thu canon draught was grate ful to her after the hard ride over tiro heated plain.

P'raps he’s waitin’ fer us to movo away, lie’ll wait a long time —till lie’s dead." 8liu let her glanoo fall for an instant to tho something that glonuod along tho top of the rook, That something was tire barrel of lief father’s rillu. The Wind rustled a snake skin on tho rock nt her side, and a “swift” darted into the Shade aud looked nt her with unwinking eyes. Then a dark, squat tlgure stolo out of the canon depths and up to tho mine. The girl did not start, but a smilo passed her lips. Tho figure moved about as silently as a shadow. It turned a swart face toward tiro spot whore sho lay Hid, hut there was more of interest for it in the hole in the canon sido than for aught else, aud on this tlies eyes were bent. By moving the muzzle of the rille two inches along tho top of tho rook, it cov ered the liap of tiro pocket in tho loft breast of the blue flannel shirt. “Farther than 1 thought for,” the girl said to Herself—“nearly a hundred and llfty yards. Tho middle sight’s tho best." She squinted through the pin-point hole, and lowering the muzzle the small est fraction of au inch, sho smiled as the small round dot of light rested on the very centre of the pocket-flap. At that instant a dark shadow mado an inky patch on the scarp near her, and looking up she saw a big buzzard wheotiug iu tho air, Sho smiled again, aud hugged the rille butt, which fitted closely against her /(boulder. Her right hand went for ward a little. Her slender forollnger, held straight, smoothed the black trig ger lightly, almost lovingly. The man straightened up a little.

It was 'motionless. “You oughter ’a been shot in tljt buck, too,” she said, grimly; “bpt'LUh aiu’t no greaser.” ’* . She moved dway, with light stop, hug ging the rifle under her nrm.
