There bad been bad bluod letween tha Indians and certain ettlcro ulunj; the Cbuduzu all timuicr. In September two heidcr wire found scalped and mutilated Just one 'k after Spotted Klk and Iron Voice, two young brave of the Brule tribe, had been iluln Id drunken row with a party of prairie trampi not tea miles from Itonebud. The agent aald be could rest-a'n and control the Hloux provided the governor would take charge of the acttlers, but acttlen have vote. Indiana have not, and the gov ernor would do uothing to Intimidate . the sovereigns of the soil. The mur derers of the ludlnns, though well known, were still unwhlpped of Jus tice and brafrglng about the frontier sulooua of their cowardly deed. The commanding ollieer of the little cavalry post not fur from the Itoselwd agency wired that the ludlnns were dancing night after night and holding big pow wows. There wan trouble abend for somebody. The dlsp:ilcli leached Wash ington tliediiy Hie I'lukcrtnn and train- louds of outside workmen were dump ed Into the dlleb. tbe very day. more over, that brought the nppenl ..for troops to protect property and open the road. Tin1 answer to the frontier fort wuh a telegram ordering rhe post, with Its women and children, to lie left "with a suitable guard" while the com- mandJng'ofHcfr, with all available men (he had euly three troops of cavalry, averaging C& effective each), to march at once to Manner Hutte, the western terminus '-of tbe Yankton road,- and there take the train for Omaha. This left the fort be held by the post quartermaster uud soiuo 23 men, wUen runners came, with troubled eyes, to say the Sioux would "Jump" before th setting of the sun. 'Much of this bad Iteen told In the lo cal papers, but so engrossed was every body In the strike that little attention was paid to It Like a thunderclap from a clear sky, therefore, fell the next announcement from the lips of lioulfaco as he turned, with 'almost ashen face, upon the silent throDg. "My heaven," be said, "the Sioux have swooped on Itonebud Station and scalp ed every soul In the place! Tbifa was no train to bring the troops from Hob- inson." HIow about that other train the speclul with the men?" gasped a burly engineer. I'l'ut off somewhere back of Ilosebud. Ouly a few of them have guns, and they're praying for belp. Thu titles are ordered there as fast as cars ran take 'em. The strike's off." CTIAPTEH XIV. . Morn of the last day of the month was breaking, clear, kern and spar- . kllng. The ruddy glow of the orient heaven, tho paling fires of the west ward stars, the serene, steady watch light of the great planet, the pilot of the sun, high perched above the sharp ly outlined ridge toward tho turbid Missouri, all told of the speedy coming of "the king of day rejoicing In the east." Over tho wide prairies of 1111 nolH. the rolling hills of Iowa, the slanting, dazzling sunbeams broke In glory, but even such glory failed to rend the pall of gloom and despond that covered the broad (lands of tho lted Water. A night of terror was changing to a day of dread. The last news before the wires themselves went down long, long miles away was thnt the train bearing the strikers' re-en foreemcnta-aona, brothers, comrades, of the federated workmen of the H rent wood shops hearing, too, the refugees, men, women and children, from ranch and farm and hamlet along the Nlobra ra, bad left C'hannlng Station at dusk and was held tip or cut off somewhere west of mined Ilosebud God and the Indians alone could tell Just where. At 7:.M) "Channliig" bad wired that the Sioux war parties were seen at dusk coming westward at the gallop, "Good by," and at 8:30 tbe wires ceased to work west of Castle Ttutte, an Isolated station nearly 30 miles east of tbe rav aged settlement and full lTtO west of Brentwood. For over 60 miles, as bos been said, the line of the Illg Horn par alleled the south Ixirder of the Sioux reservation, but fsrther to the west it pierced tho old treaty lands along the White Knrtu and ran long leagues through the former hunting grounds of the Ogallalaa, whose young men never lost a chance of emulating any savage exploits of the Brides. Beginning at Brentwood, tbe strike spirit flew east and west along the lines of tbe Big Horn and the Seattle. Beginning among tbe Illicit groggerles along the Mini ('baduza, the revolt of the Itrules spread with the Scd of wildfire through the Indian villages upon the Dakota lorder until it overwhelmed the power of tho agency close at hand as well as those to the west In Wyo ming. J lie tl rst uash. of the young braves was at tbe originators of the mischief, the outlaws of the prairie, who discreetly lied,, burying such of their stock in trade as they could not carry with them, all too easily to be trailed and dug up by the Blnni. Then, drink maddened and balked of their desires, the band bad sacked the agen cy, released their Imprisoned brothers and swooped southward on the help less ranchers of the Niobrara. In fran tic appeal for aid the station agent at Ilosebud wired west to Fort Robinson, since their usual protectors were now far away along the Missouri. The an swer was prompt, to the effect that the troops would start the Instant train could take them, and then, alas, too late. It was found that In making tip that big "special" for the re-enforre-rucnts for the strikers they had sent away the one servh-eable engine be tween Krayne Station at tho west and Brentwood. By the time the cars sent whirling from l"rnync could reach lioblnson every soldier was needed there, for the Pine Itldge Sioux had risen to a man. Roblusvii Itself was threatened, while Itosebud Station, to Jbo east, bad been reduced to ashes. No" wonder pall "lad spread over Brentwood. Scores of Its sons and many of Its duughters were scattered In little stations of tbe Big Horn or In farms and ranches all along that peril ous borderland, and the only words to reach the sorely anxious hearts at home came from tcrrilled refugis-s at entitle Butte, declaring every ranch, farm and atntlou burned and pillaged for over a hundred miles along the road, their hapless, helpless people ei ther mauHucrcd or llcclng to the refuge of the sand hill to tho south. And now, as Boniface had said, the strike was done. At 'J the flight before the wail had come from the threatened stations at the went, and men who at unset were blocking the way agaliut every car that carried troops were uow Mruiulng every nerve to send them on. At 1 oYloek, hurried aboard the wait ing train of the Big J lorn In the I'.reut wood yards, the rifles went whirling away through tho night, followed by tbe prayers and tears of a whole popu lace and re-enforced by full a hundred stalwart men, strikers of the day lie fore, all armed, all bound for Ilosebud and rescue of that imperiled train, with not one man in fifty of the mili tary company, not one In ten of tho railway party, who bad had any expe rience whatever lu Indian fighting. Old hands of the road had had some long range skirmishes while, track lay ing. Some of tho engineers' assistants could tell stirring tales of tbe days of the survey, but ouly two or three of the rli!"s hud ever seen an armed and mounted Indian warrior. Many hoped they might never have to. Yet hero they were, fit) men who under proper leadership would give good account of themselves in action against a civi lized foe, setting forth to meet the most scientific lighters in creation, and Lieutenant Hunt, lawyer nod loyal citl xen, frankly stated that he would be glad to baud over his sword to any one who understood the business, and bn'd take a rifle and a place In the ranks, Oh, for Kric Langdon now! . Sixty, 70, SO miles they ran -without either news or warning, tho silent en glueer peering , ever grimly forward through the night, one hand at the hiwttle, he-other at the reverse lever. In the cab rodo tbe assistant superln tendent. In the forward cars were other officials nnd scores of stalwart men lately heading the strike. Hunt for a time had been with them, but a veteran conductor took him aside. "We are pulling together now," said he "but of course brotherhood matters can't be discussed In the presence of outsiders, and there arc matters that must lie talked over. We'll let you know whatever news we get at every stop." The conductor's words were significant; so were bis eyes. Hunt took the hint nnd his lenve, slipping back to the second car, where half the rifles were sprawling on the seats, the other half occupying the third. Six times the crowded train bad stopped at stations ami sjx times rushed on again. ?otblng jurtlier from any reliable source, said the conductor, t "Only more horrible rumors and stories from refugees wired In from Castle Butte Iiawu csine on npnee, and the train slowed down In answer to a lantern signal at the bridge over Shallow creek. Two men tumbled aboard after excited hall tp tho occupants of the cab, and the ' conductor presently camo back, looked in at the Ur and Jerked his head to Hunt, ns much as to nay. You're wanted." They were still lit) miles- from tho Button nnd bad been running liko mad. "There'll be a dozen Id hands to Join us next stop, lieuten ant." said the olileiul, "and nil with Henrys or Winchesters. Tlio train with the boys from the river." he con tinued, consulting certain telegrams, U six hours behind us, and the I'nlon I'uclllc has started a train with regu lars from Omaha, others from Kansas are coming by way of Fremont. There'll be soldiers enough by tomor row, but God help us through today!' v no are tnese who ttoarded us here"" usked the lieutenant. Soino of our fellows -bridge guards. yon know-In case the other thing had to be done. The Lord be praised It dldu't!" said Hunt piously. "If that bridge had been burned, there would have been no sovlng your special. We have men enough," he continued thoughtfully, "if we only had the right kind of leader. The conductor glanced about blm and nodded reassuringly to one or two Who were anxiously eying him and his uniformed companion. Mr. Hunt," said In-, drawing the ofH cer to a corner of the swaying baggage car, "this Is no time. Is It, for discuss ing rights mm wrongs? For awhile, ut least, the strike's a dead Issue. We've got to pull together. No good can come of stirring ti i what's past and gone 1 ve wired ahead to have coffee reudv for 200 men at the Unites. It's a lunch station. We'll lake the can rlzht n board and shove ahe.nl That'll cheer the men up n bit. won t It?" Sure to, said Hunt, wondering what might be coming. "Then -If a little, farther beyond that we happen to find -Just the riRht sort conductor gr.lleleily. "I should say so lu view of Berts' chit rc Ing blm with Ulug Cresswell's asuuiluttf ami then ruiiulug away," an swered liuut. "Well, we'll tlx Belts all right. But you and your Imy don't want to stir up trouble now. tlt )u? Let's pull to gether, as 1 say. Once away from Cas tle Butte th.'ii comes the run to Kose bud. The roud's clear. Tbe Indians have nil gone westuard. but Ood belp those isior fellows lu Unit train till we tret there!" "Amen! Amen all round!" said Hunt. "Tbe rifles wou't ask questions If that's what you waut. Only give us Luhgdou." And 40 minutes later, cheered and warmed by abundant hot coffee, tbe rl- Ml & -Am A Tim mi 7i tmiiMf'l (iKird. of man to run this thing dou t von think your fellows would take him and no questions jufced -until, the whole business can be settled later?" "By Jove, you incau langdon!" cried Hunt in hope and rejoicing. Sh-li! For goodness' sake, don't shout.' He's ahead all ri-ht enough and safe and sound, but he's tihtini: mad over this business. Some of the boys weren't advised right, and it's -kind of awkward all round," ended tbe ties peered from the windows at the whistle for brakes, and a shout went up that well nigh raised the roof. In tbe midst of a little group at the siding stood a pale faced, stern eyed man In the fatigue uniform of a first sergeant. and the rifles, yelling like mad, tum bled headlong lu a surging throng from tbe train, a swarming about him la ea ger, Impulsive greeting. v Ithout a word ho grasped Hunt's outstretched hand, signaled to the conductor and broke away through the throng toward tho hosing engine taking lu water at the windmill tank up the track. "We haven't an Ijislant to lose," were then his first words. "Oct everybody alioard ami Join inc forward as soon as you can," said he to Hunt, linked his arm in that of the conductor and rushed him up the roadside to the pilot. Another 40 minutes and, the still smoking ruins of Itosebud Station left behind, tho crowded train was speed ing swiftly, yet cautiously, over the broad, open westward prairie. Kxcept a few fuuii.sbed, homeless dogs howling mournfully about the scene not a 11 v lug thing remained at the station, and only the ghastly relics of one human erraturo had been found In the brief, hurried, two minute search. Already it was known fur as the Atlantic that tho llrsi stories of massacre were grievously exaggerated, many families reported murdered having made their way In panic but safely to Castle Butte and others escaping to Hie south. But not a word from anv source had come as to the smm'Ih1, the last news by wire being that (lie Ogalhilas were dancing and bowling about their agen cy nt Fine lildge and liriiig on the wonts sent out from Uobinsoii. Tbe Brtiies could ouly be somewhere be tween Itoseliud and Wounded Knee. Wherever that luckless train could be found there would be the Indians In direful force mid fury. Grave, set faces were those III the cub and about the engine, nnd tender. The road ran straight for miles. The landscape was open ami treeless and lay like lazily rolling ocean turned suddenly to earth and stone. Luugdon and the conduct or, clinging fust each to a stanchion were under the headlight above tbe pi lot. A sergeant and three men. best shots of tau rifles, hampered the cab and tender, but the engineer felt safer In having them there, and the hope. pluck nnd spirits of the whole train load had gone up at a bound In the consciousness that that cool beaded, gritty ex regular was at tbe front to take command. Hunt had brought bis fJiidglnss, and despite the Jar and Jolt as the huge engine clunked along over the elustie roadlK-d Ijingdon searched the prairie ceaselessly while tbe con ductor kept track of the mlleposts. "We twist and turn every which way five miles farther on, shouted the lat ter Into Lnngdon's ear. "That bluff abend there marks the end of this tangent.- Then we follow tbe creek a piece and then make a streak cross country at the big bend." Any deep cuts theref shouted Langdon lu reply, banging to tba Iron bur with a hooked arm and still peer ing through the binocular. "Four or live. Why?" "That's where we'll And 'em. They'll run the train Into a cut for protection. Hue the bunks on both sides and stand off the Sioux till belp comes if they can. Signal full speed to the engineer, will you? lie can slow down again at the bend." A moment uioro and tbe huge ma chine seemed rushing through space, ami the two men at the pilot bent dou ble and bung on for dear life. Five minutes brought them once more along the banks of the stream and close to tho frowning bluffs. "Watch them!" signaled Langdon, pointing to the crests' and leaning far out from the side of the cuglne, now reducing speed. Tbe sergeant, clamping his campaign bat to ids bead, nodded, "I under- Bland." The bluffs Were but the shoulder of a high ridgo through which long centu ries before tbe stream had torn Its wsy. It hid like a curtain the spread lug landscape beyond. It might be hiding hundreds ef lurking warriors, but Langdon believed that though a few wary scouta would be thrown out to give warning of coming troops tba main body of savages were clustered close about the beleaguered train. He had never before been brought Into contact with mounted Indians, bnt bad bad long talks with comrades well schooled In border warfare and felt sure of his ground. From what he could gather be believed that several old Indian lighters from the westward stations must be on that train and rea soned that they would make tbclr de fensive stand where the cars could b sheltered and tbey themselves, the do fenders, be partially covered by tha sides of tbo cut He was reasonably certain that they could there hold out for his coining. nd now aa tlioy sweep cautiously round tbe long curve at the foot of tbe bluff and see before them fonr miles ahead up the distant slope of the divide tbe Jugged seam of spaded earth and the black shadows of tbe snow fence and realize that all that stretch of winding grade must be overcome be fore tbey can hope for sight of the be sieged Langdon'a heart throbs Ilka tha massive engine straining at Its bnrdeu. lilt her up again, Jimmy!" sbonts tha conductor, bis bands forming a speak Ing tube. Ihe fin-man Is thrusting coal by tbe shovelful Into the seething fur nace. iDky smoke Jets from the stack and streams tallward over tba train. "No biding our onnng. cap!" yells tba conductor, with a backward and up ward glance. Langdon shakes bis bead. "They've spotted ns long before this," Is the answer. Agsln the speed Increases despite reverse enrves that bug tbe bank like the convolutions of a snake. Jim is gathering headway for tho climb. Tlltbif far toward tt stream, the black demon lu ' tbe (lead, skims the shiulug concave of thn, mils tinder a low line of ticlghts to the left, watched every lnciof their length by the wary eyes of ciwts'hliig sharpshoot er In tha tender.

Now comes a long in lie uf usy grade as the line leaves the narrow river ami begins the climb of the distant crest, aud, like a Hack meteor, the Big Horn's powerful Baldwin shoots across the straining trestle over a shallow la vine und spins away In headlong dash, a dense volume of inky smoke and blinding dust whirling und billowing in its wske. Now the snow fence to the north shuts out the landscape on the right flank. Now through low waves of pralrlo the pilot tears away.
