8 In the Hands of the Cave Dwellers. The Story of An Apache Raid- By G. A. HE\TY, Copyright, 1900, S. S. McClure Ca CHAPTER VII. Bui few words were spoken until the party arrived at a spot where the valley began to narrow in near the boundary •f the ranche. They were now consid erably beyond the Indian fires. “There is no fear of our meeting with any of the red devils now,” Sancho said. “They know well enough that our.ln dians would not venture to attack them, and that there are no other enemies near. A Quarter of a mile and we shall be at the wigwam where the senorita went this morning.“ “We will stop there for a moment.“ Will said; “it is not likely that we shall find anything that will give us useful Information, but at any rate the horses may as well have a ishofit rest there as well as anywhere else.” They had come fifteen miles now at a •mart pace. The men all dismounted. One of them struck a light with his flint and steel and then lit the end of a short coil of cord that had been soaked in saltpetre and waved it round his head till it burst Into a flame. A& they expected, they found the two Indians lying dead; both bad been tomahawked and then scalped. On the ground lay a broken medicine bot tle and a portion of some soft pudding. “That does not tell us much,’’ Will Mkid. Banebo made no answer, but looked all round the wigwam. “The basket is not here,’’ he said. “I noticed that it was pretty full.” “I suppose the redskins took it, San cho.” # “They would not bother about basket; ■ ‘1 l~- m Z - Their Leader Suddenly Checked His Horse With a Warning Cry, But It Was Too Late. II fta the last thing they would think ot | taking. My idea 4a that the senorita came back here. I expect she came to warn the Indians. She would, to begin with, if she rode at full speed, have distanced the ’Paches, who would not be able to get through the herd, which must j have been between them and her when she first saw them. If she were half way down the valley she might have been here some minutes before them. Of course", the two old Indians knew that there was no escape for them, and made no effort to avoid their fate. I expect they had only taken that pudding and medicine out of the basket when she got back. Now, seeing that the basket and all that was In it are gone, It seems to me possible enough that the senorita. who may have caught it up and ridden off with it, knowing that she had a long ride before her, and that through a country where there are no posadas.” "I hope indeed that it may be so. San cho, for I have been wondering what she would do if she were lost in these moun tains. What would she be likely to have put in the basket?" "I handed it up to her. eenor, when she had mounted, there were two bottles of milk, a bottle of wine and a pile of cakes. There were a few ether things, but I did not notice what they were." "I only hope that your idea is correct, Bancho; it would be a great comfort to know’ that she had enough provisions to last her for two or throe days." "I expect you will find it Is so, senor; the senorita is quick wit ted and cool. 1 saw her once when a dozen bulls stam peded when we were trying to drive them Into the yard; she was sitting her horse • short dlmance from the gate and was Juft in their line She didn’t try to dash aside across their path, as many would have, but turned and started, keeping her horse In at first and then letting him out gradually’ and edging off out of their line, and she came cantering back and laughing as she Joined her father, who was looking pale as death at the danger she had been in. I have very little doubt that It has been, as I said; she galloped at first at full speed, then when she got near this hut, she saw that she was well ahead of the redskins. Bhe rcsie up here. Jumped off to warn th/> Indians, and when she found they would not go. she took the basket, knowing the things could be of no use to them, and might be worth a hundred time# their weight in gold to her. Maybe the old Indian may have suggested it to her; at any rate, I feel sure she took them." "Well, we will ride steadily on. Ts there any piece where she could have left the valley?" "Not beyond this, eenor; at least, I tnow of none, but as I told you, we know very little of the valley, beyond this point Certainly she could have known no path; no doubt she went straight on. Knowing how well she was mounted, she would fees! sure that the redskins could not overtake her. and I expect she did not press her horse much, but contented htraelf with keeping out of rifle shot I don't know whether she knew of the ford across the river, but she would naturally plunge lr> at the point where the track comes down on it, and would, no doubt, be surprised t finding that the horse was able to cross without swimming .’’ "She would not he able to turn after she had Crossed, and come down on the opposite bank?'' "No, senor; that would not b* possible, there are high mountain* there, and tho rtver at some places run* through deep gorges,” •'How f*r do you think tho Apaches would follow?” "1 think that they would keep on for distance beyond tho river; when they found at last that they had no chance of catching her they might turn and come back and cross the river and camp on this side. By that time their horses would he done for; you see, they most likely had a long ride yesterday, ma>oe they are traveling all night, ond, of course, it gave the senorita an immense advantage that her horse was fresh while theirs had any how a great deal taken out of them t* fore they set out after her. I should recom mend that we should halt as soon as it be comes light in some clump of trees and wait for them as they come back. We are pretty well matched In numbers, and with the advantage of a surprise we ought to be able.to wipe them out altogether. We might go as far as we cun up the valley to the point where it becomes a mere ravine, before daylight breaks, and our horses will be all the better for a rest of a few hours. They will have gone over forty miles since they left the river, and we may probably have a very long jour ney to do*again to-morrow. There is no saying how far the senorita may have gone, she would not know whether the redskins might not follow all night, and I should think that she would keep on till daybreak, though, of course, she would only go at a walk.” “It is difficult to say what she Is mosl likely to do.“ “It is Indeed, senor; if I myself were In her place I should be puzzled. I should reckon that all in the valley had been wiped out. The redskins would assuredly first make a rush for the hacienda, be cause it was most important that they should carry that before the men could rally round and make a defense. I should reckon that the redskins would remain there for four or five days before they had Jerked as much meat as they could carry, ond that when they started a party wouid like enough be placed in ambush to cat ’h me os I came buck. I should know that it was next to hopeless to try and find my way down across such moun tains as there are ahead, through which, so far as I know, there are no tra ks. and 1 am not sure that I should not push on in hopes of teaching the Moquls, who are peaceful Indians, as I hove heard, with their village perched on the top of hills, and having fiocks and herds and being in all ways different from ail the other tribes except the Ztrais." “The redskins say that these people were hero before them’, and that they really belong to the tribes of Central Mexico, and came from there long IWore the white man ever set foot in America From there one could travel north, strike the Santa Fe trail, and possibly make one’s way’ through safely, though the Navajoes are pretty nearly as bad there as the Apaches are here. Whether the senorita has ever heard of the Moquls I cannot say’, but if she finds that she is on a trail she will follow it, thinking any thing better than going back and falling into the hands of the Apaches." "Are there any other tribes she would have to pass through on the way?" "I think not. It is a great mountain track, where even redskins could not pick up a living. As for as I have heard, the track from the ford loads through a series of passes between lofty hills. It is not the course of a river, and, therefore, there are not likely to be any villages. I should say that there would be forest on the low er slopes, and we are sure to meet with enough game to keep us." They now proceeded at a w’alk, for the trees in most places grew thickly, and They Rode” Rack. HrlTVJfln* With Them n Stag They Had Shot the ground here and there was broken by bowlder* that had rolled down from the hillside. At lest they came to a point where the valley was but a hundred yards wide. Here they halted, took off the horses’ bridles to allow them to pick what grass there was, and threw themselves down, and most of them were asleep In a few minutes. "Is it necessary to keep watch?" Will said. "No, senor, the ’Paches will assuredly not start to corns beck until mornlnr* The country is as strange to them as It is to us. I should say from what I have heard it is about ten mllea'from the river, and in an hour or an hour and a half af ter daylight they are likely to be here. Will took a seat by the trunk of a tree. Ha had no inclination for sleep. THE WCKMIiG EJETFS: SUNDAY. JUNE 24. 1900. His thoughts were busy with the girl alone in these mountains with an un known country before her and a band of relentless savages who might, for aught she knew, be still pressing after her. I< was difficult to conceive a more terrible situation. She might lose the trail, which was sure to be a faintly marked one, and in some places indis tinguishable save to an eye accustomed to tracking. If so, her fate was sealed. She must wander about till she died of hunger and thirst. It was maddening to be waiting there even for an hour or two and to know that she was alone. As soon as daylight broke Sancho sent four of the men back to hunt for game. If they did not come upon something in the course of three-quarters of an hour, they were to return. They had been gone, how ever, ha \f. that time when the crack of a rifle was heard, and ten minutes later they rode back, bringing with thejm a stag they had shot. Already a fire had been lighted 100 yards farther back from the camping ground. Antonio, had col lected some perfectly dry wood for the purpose. “There will be no smoke to speak of, 1 * he said to Will, “and what little there is will make Its way out through the leaves. It is unlikely in the extreme that the Indians will notied it, and if they do they will think that It is a fire made by one of our Indians.” A couple of the hunters at once set about skinning and cutting up the car cass. They were to go on cooking it until a signal was made to them that the Indians were approaching. The horses had now been collected, and the men disposed themselves behind trunks of trees, each with his horse a few yards behind him. All being well-trained to sumd still when the reins wrre thrown over their heads. In front of them was a clear space some thirty yards across. After half an 1 our’s anxious waiting, Sancho. who was lying with his ear t> the ground, raised his hand as a signal that he could hear 'he Indians coming. The men from the fire r;n up and took their places with the rest. The rifles were thrown forward in readiness. All could now hear the dull tread of the horses, with an occasional sharper sound as the hoofs fell upon rock. As the Apaches rode out from the woed thifr leader sud- % II Scrambled to Its Feet Again , and Stood Rocking Itself. denly checked his ho:se with a warning cry, but it was too late. Sixteen rifles flashed out, half the Apaches fell, and before the others could recover from their surprise at this unex pected attack the vaqueros charged down upon them. Hopelessly outnumbered as they were, the Apaches fought desperately but the combat was short. The pistols of Will and Sancho were used with deadly effect, and in a couple of minutes the fight was over and the last Indian had fal len. “Now. let us waste fio time.” Will said. “Ten minutes must do for our breakfast, then we will be off.” "None of the party was seriously hurt, and the wounds were soon bandaged. The joints hanging about the fire were soon taken down, cut into slices and four In dians stepped from among the trees, one of them being evidently a chief. "You are breaking the rules." he said to Will, whom he recognized as the leader of the. party. "We shall lay a complaint before the great muster " Will did not answer, but Antonio, who spoke their language fairly, replied, "Have you not heard the news?" "We have heard no news,” tho chief re plied. "We heard a gun fire when we were hunting two miles the valley. We came to see what it was. Then we heard many guns, tind not knowing what it could be. hid out horses and came on." "Then you do not know that there are 300 or 400 Apaches and Tejunas in the val ley below, that the hacienda has been at tacked and all within it killed, and that the herds have been destroyed? So far as we know, we alone have escaped." The Indina* uttered deep exclamations of surprise. "W-hat was the firing?" the chief asked. "If you go on a hundred yards further up you will find the dead bodies of twenty Apache braves; they have been riding in pursuit of Donna Clara, the daughter of the fenor, who was fortunately at your end of the valley, having gone there with food and medicine for the old Indian of your tribe who was too ill io leave with the rest, a fortnight since." *‘l mw her often then," the chief said, "and this young brave"—and he motioned to Will—-"he has often in our camp, and the girl visited our wigwams and gave many little presents to our women. Did she escape them?" "She did, but where she is we know not. We are going in search of her. If you and your warriors will go with us we Fhall be glad, for your eyes are better than ours, and could follow the footmarks of her horse where we should see nothing." "Teczumn. with one of his warriors, will go," the chief said. "The other two must go and carry the news to our people, and, though they are not strong enough to fight so large a force, yet they will not be Idle, and many of the Apaches and Tejunas will lose their scalps before they cross the river again." He fioke a few’ words to the three men, who at once left, and in (n minutes one returned with two horses. The chief had already eaten two slices of deer’s flesh and ho mounted and rode on with the others, while hi follower waited for a minute to eat tho flesh that had already been cooked for him. Sanoho had chosen the horse that had been ridden by the Apache chief, and. without stopping, they rode on until they wore a few min utes later Joined by the other Indian. They now pushed on rapidly, ascending the rav ine, and on reaching the top Will saw with satisfaction that high hills on both eid<s bordered what was in fact a pass between them, and that Hara must therefore have kept straight on. Tho chief with his followers rode a little ahead of the others, Will with Antonio and Rancho following closely behind him. Once or twice the chief pointed down to ’make on the rocks with the remark, "A shod horse." "That is all right." Antonio said "The Indians do not shoe their horses, so wo may be sure it was the senorita." The* path soon began to descend again, and in an hour from the time of starting they emerged from the pas# within 100 yards of the river; the ground being here soft, a well-marked track was visible. "Mode by our people,” the chief said, turning round.. "They often cross ford to hunt on the other side—large forests there two hours’ ride away—good hunting ground. Apache not come there.

Savannah,~ Ga. time perfectly distinct, but It presently became fainter. However, as the Indians rode on rapidly, Will had no doulfi that although he could not see the tracks on the ground they were plain enough to the eyes of the Indians. “It is a mighty good job we have the chief with us.” Antonio said, “the trail is plain enough at present, but it is sure to get fainter when we get into these for ests they speak of. Probably U goes straight enough there, but once among the trees it will break up, as the Indians would scatter t<\ hunt. We should have lost a lot of time following it. Now we have got these two redskin fellows they will pick it up almost as fast as we can ride.” The road, indeed, after passing over a rocky plateau, dipped suddenly down into a deep valley running up from the river, *and extending as far as one could see almost due east among the hills. The track they were following turned to the right at the foot of tlie hill. For miles it was clearly defined, then gradually I ©came fa nter as (he In dians who hud followed It turned off in search of game. The footprints o.f the shod horse continued s raight up the val ley, until ten mile- from the point at wh ; ch they had entered it they turned off to the left. “It has been gong at a walk for some miles,” the chief said, “and the white girl has been walking b side it. I saw her footpiin s many times. We shall find that she halted for the night at the lit tle stream in the middle of the valley. It -must have bee i getting dark when she at rived here. She must be a good horsewoman and have a good horse un der her. for it i* nearly eighty miles from to the hacienda.” By the stream, indeed, they found the place where Clara had slept. The In dian pointed to spots where the horse had cropped the grass by the edge of the stream, and where it had at last lain down near its mistress, who had, as a few’ crumbs showed, eaten some of the Cakes. “I wonder we don’t see one of the bot tles,” Will remark 1. Antonio translated his remarks 149 the c.hi f, who said. “Girl wise, fill bottle with water, not know' how far stream come. We halt here, cannot follow trail father, soon come dark.” Thi- was evident to them all; men and horses alike needed lest. They lit a fire and !-a around it for a short time, all were encouraged by the success so far, and fven the fact thar theJ were ffup perless did not affect them. Teczuma and Wolf go out and find game in the morning.” the chief said confident ly. “Plenty of game here.” Long before the others were awake. In deed. the chief and his followers were moving. Just as daylight broke the latter ran into camp. “Come.” he said, “bring gun, grizzly coming down valley. Teczuma watch him.” The men were on their feet the instant Antonio translated the Indian’s words, and follow’ed the Indian on foot. “Was the bear too much for the twro In dian’s?” Will asked Sancho. “If they had been alone they would have fought it, but the chief was right in send ing for us. It was like enough that they might both have got badly hurt, and that wouid have been a thing for us all.” Presently the Indian stopped. It was still twilight under the trees, but they could make out a great gray form advanc ing towards them. When within twenty yards it scented danger, and stopped with an angry growl. Almost at the same mo ment n rifle flashed out behind a tree near its flank. With a furious growl it turned, exposing its flank to the watchers. An tonio had warned five of these not to Are, the other ten rifles were fired simultane ously. and the bear rolled over and over. It scramble*! to Its feet again, and stood rocking itself, evidently wounded to death. The other flve men ran forward together, and when three yards distant poured in their fire, and the bear fell dead. The va queros lost no time in skinning it. A portion of the floah w'as carried to the fire, cut up into strips and at once cooked. As soon as the meal was finished the rest of the meat was cut off and divided be tween the party, who then mounted and rode on, the two Indians again leading the way. (To Be Continued).

June 22.—As one result of the Queen's visit to Ireland the report has been circulated that It Is her intention to revive an ancient Irish title to which a diaim has been laid by a Chicagoan. Incidentally this brings out the fact that over a thousand British coronets are awaiting heads that can prove their right to wear them. That some of these titles are rightfully the heritage of some of the leading fam ilies in the United States, authorities ex press little doubt, and probably there is more than one unconscious citizen in com paratively humble circumstances whose name is entitled to a prefixed earl or viscount. Beyond this, however,*a possible claim ant must look rather to expend money than to the inheritance of vast estates, as by the British statute of limitations all such have long since either passed be yond reclaim into private hands or lapsed into possession of the drown. It was re cently officially stated that the largest sum of money held by the Court of Chan cery awaiting heirs was only a little over $200,000. In this connection perhaps the strangest story told within a recent pe riod is that of the ancient Barony of Bel haven. In the middle of the century a coal miner of Lancashire, Scotland, named Watson, found it necessary to occasion ally visit a pawnbroker’s establishment in Glasgow, with whose clerk he became up on intimate terms. In the course of sev eral chats the clerk, among other circum stances of his life, intimated that he be- lieved himself to be the lawful heir 10 the Barony of Belhaven, then about to fall into abeyance through the anticipated death of the childless holder of the title. At the time this information did not particulorly Interest the hard working miner, who, in due course, commencing to find his way up to better position, ceased .his visits to the pawn broker, an 1 consequently lost sight of the friendly clerk. Fifteen years passed away, and the delver in the earth found himself instead the employer of thousands of min ers. By his own ability he had become one of the greatest coal property owners in the west of Scotland. He was a mill ionaire many times over, and, naturally, then turned his thoughts toward social advancement—not perhaps so much for himself as for the soke of his sons and daughters. He was particularly anxious that the latter should marry Into the Scotch aristocracy. With ail his wealth this was a difficult matter to accomplish in a land where pride of birth and demo cratic sentiment strangely enough go hand iri hand. It is not easy for a self made native to form an alliance with 3 Douglas or o Campbell, who stands near the chieftain of the clan. Pondering over these matters he recollected the story of the pawn broker’s clerk. The title of Bel haven was one of the most famous in Scottish history. Perhaps, after all, the clerk was the rightful heir, as he bore the family name of Hamilton. Further reflection determined him to discover If his old acquaintance was still alive. This he succeeded in doing, finding the clerk still in much the same position. Mr. Watson again heard the story, and, apparently being satisfied of its genuine tenor, made what must have seemed to the clerk a starting proposition. Mr. Watson agreed to find the money to put forward the claim to the title, which, if proved valid, he would then endow with an income of $30,000 a year, provided the peer would undertake to marry one of his (Mr. Watson’s) daughters Needless to say, the clerk was willing to fall in with such plans. The claim was put forward, and after an expensive suit, judgment was rendered by the House of Lords in the appMlar.t’s favor. Then Lord Be’haven married Miss Watson and en tered upon a life of novel splendor, in which everything was emblazoned with core nets. It is doubtful, however.* If he enjoyed much greater happiness, for fie’ was more than once heard to expre c s a longing for a linan haddock or a dish of t hall brose in place of the elaborate menus ’ of Garnock. It was Mr. Watson’s natural ambition to be able to speak of a grandson as the future Lord Belhaven, but Fate took lit tle heel of the and sire of the millionaire, ironically blrsvng the noble coup’e with seven daughters in succession, but never a son and heir. Thus when Lord Belhaven died a year or two ago the title passed away to an other branch of the family, though Mr. Watson’s disappointment may have been somewhat assuaged by being shortly after created a baronet, and from the reflec iton that he may yet live to take another step and become himself a peer.
