How long ago did tuey gei mm:
asked Martiu Gilford.
Not over half an hour."
Have they killed Ulm?"
Iteclion not. They'll probably tor

Come, boys." said Mart; "we may lie
In time."
Five men. all well armed, rode off
LMildcd bv Simmons, the one who hud
brought the news, for the purpose of
rnsrulutt the cuuttve. But the Indians
wcro not ncustomed to going about in
small parties, and the white men had
liLtle hope of finding a force that they
would bo able to master. Besides, as
snon as they were discovered the snv-
es -would kill their prisoner, if tlioy
had not done so before. Indeed. tne
set out on their enterprise because they
had not the heart to refuse Murtiu
Gilford rather than with any expecta
tion of making a rescue.
Simmons led them to the spot where
Snm Gilford had been surprised and
captured. Then one of the men dis
mounted and, lending his horse, fol
lowed the footprints of -the savages.
It was evident that there was a large
number of them, so many. In fact, that
It would be madness for the white
men to attack them. But they pressed
on till there began to appear evidence
that the Indians wore not far ahead of
them, when they halted and sent one
of their parly cautiously forward to
reeonnolter.
Ho returned to say that from an
eminence ho hnd seen as many as 600
redskins on a plain below drawn up in
two lines, between .which n white pris

The party followed their guide to the
point of observation, and before reach
ing It they could hear the shouts the
yells of the savages, from which it
was evident thnt their prisoner was
running between the lines and they
wore belaboring him.
It was with difficulty that the whites
could restrain Murtln GIfford from
rushing down the slope to die fighting
for his brother. Hut they held him
back on the edge of a wood In which
they were lying on their stomachs and
used their persuasive powers to con
vince him that If he betrayed their
presence, Instend of saving Saul, he
would bring the Indians upon them
and they would be overpowered.
By the time they hnd accomplished
this the prisoner hnd run the gantlet
and was driven stnggerlng to a tree,

standing at a distance, wcro preparing
to flro nt him. Tho whites knew thnt
It was not the Intention to kill him
Ho would tie reserved for a lingering
death. They would see how near hlrn
they could send their bullets nnd nr
rows wlthou' Inflicting a death wound.
"Mart." said one of tho party, "if you
want to die with Sntn or have a chance
to snvo him I'll give you an Idea for
trial. These red devils are as supersti
tious as they are cruel, and can easily
be Imposed upon by working a super
natural racket. None of 'em could tell
you nnd Sam apart. There's no differ
ence In your dress or height or build.
Suppose you start down the slope, un
armed, with tho measured trend of a
ghost. They won't shoot nn unarmed
man till ho gets near enough for them
to sec what ho looks like, nnd when
they see Mart's double stalking toward
them ten to one they'll run."
The words were no sooner spoken
than Mart GIfford was Impatient to try
the plan, but they held him for n few
minutes to Impress uimn him the Im
portance of keeping his head and play
ing his pnrt well. Some regretted thnt
they hnd nothing with which to whiten
Ills face, but others avowed that this
would add nothing to his similarity to
his brother and might do'rni't from It.
Tho Indians were engaged In tiring nt
their victim when Mart, who had pull
ed himself together for a great ef
fort, left the wood with folded arms,
looking up nt the sky that he might
not be nffeotcd by his brother's danger.
There was an Interval of nbout ten
tooonds between each of his steps. He
was soon noticed by a redskin, who
called the attention of the others to
him.
The ghosttlness of his measured
walk soon brought about a commotion
' ntnoug his observers, nnd when he
came nenr enough for them to see their
: prisoner's double they were dunt
' founded. When he hsd approached
I near enough to them for his features
to be distinct to them he stopped and.
i still looking up at the sky, pointed i
his brother. Some of the Indians fell
on their faces, while others, understand
i ng the ghost's motion to lie a demnr't
! for himself, ran to the prisoner and nn
: hound him.
i Snm Gilford soon divined his broth
er's maneuver and when released
walked slowly toward Mnrt. and on
reaching htm the twins marched awny
aide by side.
