"Here they come," yelled Boiling In warning. , He tired hi musket, and I felt the wind of It bullet on my cheek. Tom shot with no better results. Th two surviving Cahnuiigs threw away their guns and fled. "I will take car of them, brothers," houted Ta-wan-ne-ara, casting aside his own musket "One Seneca against two Cahnuugas that should b full odds." Ile put on speed a he spoke, waved hls'hand and was gone, running like a greyhound after the two frightened savages, who wort scurrying around the swamp. The field wa left to I'eter and me and the two ruttlluns whom th frontier railed Bed Ivath and Black Death. They seemed nothing louth to meet us. "Ho, ho, ho." roared Boiling. "D'ye see who It Is, Tout? Waull, young teller" thl to me "wu you Intend In' to amus me some?" Tm Intending to let a Utile clean air Into your dirty skin," I answered. He threw back hi head a If much amused. "Ho, ho, bo 1 Now afn't you got the mart way o' puttlu' things? Young feller, I'll tell yer what: you'r too good for the frontier. You" As quirk as lightning, and without an Indication In advance to wurn me, be flung his tomahawk at my head. I saw It coming, and Inatlucttvely did tb only thing possible to sav my self raited my own ax to guard. Boil ing's hatchet struck uiln and knocked It from my hand, leaving my arm sor and tingling. "You wasn't ei pert In' that, wa your b gibed. ".Waail, young feller, there' a heap o' other things you ain't expectln', but they're a-golu' to happen. Yes, right now. You watch." He poised himself on the balls of his feet, and pranced around me, his big, douhlo-edged scalping knife held ready to his right bund. "I'm aliulo' to cane you, my lad," be warued me. "You ain't got the ehance a squirrel has ag'ln an eagle. There ain't a knife-fighter In these part ran stand up to me. Boy, I'm 'most resdy to be sorry fur y. I feel that bloody-minded I ain't got no mercy left at alL" ' He attacked me with a peculiar weeping blow that wa aimed at my shoulder, but fell at the level of the waist Had it paused my guard, 'twould have 'disemboweled me. I parried his blade with mine, and struck back for the first time with such venom that be leaped away In alarm. The suspension In bis attack guv me opport unity to glunce over my shoulder toward the edge of the swamp, where I'eter and the negro were circling each other warily, toma hawk poised for throwing. The sight put an Idea In my nil ml. t remembered my duel- wfth the Calinu ga In the glade by the Great Trull and the discovery that he was at a i)lsaiika'iitage when I used the knife a I had learned to use th sword. I promptly shifted my grip on the kulfe bllt and held It straight before me a If It were a rapier. At the same time I Inclined my other arm behind me to balance It Boiling viewed thl maneuver with derision, "Ye pore baby," he sneered. "Think ye can meet a knife-flghtor like me with one arm? Or fight me off with the point? I'll show ye." He charged Uxn me like a hatter Ing ram, his knife a whirling point of steel, Its broad blade slashing In both directions. I retired slowly, anxious to Increase hi self-confidence. "Htnnd up to me now I" he yelled finally. "Be y feared?" I laughed at this, and It made him furious. II stumped around me, lashing and stubbing, and it wn sev eral minutes before he discovered Unit however viciously he struck I was ul ways able to parry hi in with an econ omy of effort He crept forward like a huge cut, feet spread wide,' shoulder crouched, knife a menacing fin inn. Somewhat to hi surprise I did not give ground to him thl time, but met blm squarely as he advanced. My srm wa extended, full-length, tipped with a good ten Inche of steel. He itruck, and I parried the blow, He slashed, and I put It aside. II struck again, and I almost succeeded In twisting til blade from his hand by an old trick of the sails de amies. But my knife wa not long enough to get the neces sary purchase with It H charged with wonderful celerity, dropped to his knee and slushed up ward so effectively that his point cut she skirt of my leather shirt "I'll gut ye yet," he howled with D. HOWDEN SMITH PORTO CELLO OOLD ETC COPYAJCMT tr BKf NTAMO'S But I refused to be Intimidated. In deed, I was no longer doubtful of th Issue. I knew that I could outfight htm or any fighter of hi caliber by my adaptation of gwordpluy to knlfo flghtlng. I leaped upon him by way of answer, and pressed the fighting. He yielded ground to hie, seeking to retreat Into the wood by the trail ; but I rounded him up and herded blm steadily toward the edge of th swamp. I shortened our fight Inn-rung, and gave hint the point, drawing blood oc casionally. He kept his head down, and parried desperately, trying to escape to on side, but 1 was on him so swiftly that he wa afraid of a blow from the rear, and must need stand to defend himself. At Inst he stood on the very brink of the morass, with no avenue of escape open. "How will you tile, my frlendT" I asked. "You can smuttier to death If you prefer It?" His answer was a bellow of Insen sate rage and his knife, thrown point first at my chest By sheer luck I rnught Its point on my hilt, turned It aside and met hi rush. He wraptied hls'nrms around me, Intent on Tarry ing me with blm Into th oose and slime. But I slabbed blm to the heart before his hear' hug wa completed, and he fell away from me, arms spread wide, and lay In a nnlsom heap by the tussocks of marsh grass. I stood over him, panting from my exertions, when a shout from T wan near attracted my attention. Th Seneca was returning from hi pursuit of the two Cahnuagaa. II shunted again and pointed behind me. I turned to see I'eter and the negro locked It each other's arms, and a I looked, Tom heaved I'eter Into the air ard tried to throw him. But I'eter locked hi legs around the negro's waist, and they rolled over and over across the ground. . I readied them "Just a they strug gled to their feet, grip uureluxed. I'e ter warned me off. "Ktandt clear," h croaked. "I fin ish this myself." f'ertes, nolmdy but Peter could hsv finished It The negro strength wa colossal. He fought Ilk 'a wildcat, with teeth and null and legs. But I'eter met blm phlegmntlcully, refusing to be angered by the vilest attempt. They had torn the clothing from each other' shoulders and flanks. They drlpied blood. Their skin shone with sweat Their chests heaved with the effort for breath. Tom stooped and flung hi anus around I'eter's waist, driving hi head for the Dutchman' loin. I'eter retal iated by bringing up hi knee agalnat the negro' chin. Tom reeled buck, nnil I'eter swooped upon hliri. On 'arm hooked Tom's waist the other caught hi in by the neck. Device Called Upon Detecting the unbalanced portion of any revolving muss, such aa a flying wheel of an engine or a dynamo ar mature, Is declared a simple matter by the Inventor of a device that la cnlled a "bulunca detector." Tha theory of the Instrument Is based on the principle that any revolving body or disk, perfectly balanced and loose ly supported on Its axis, will, when re volving, seek It own course of revo lution and rulat steadily, Irrespec tive of the course of It axis. Th device consists enseutliilly of a rate or housing. Through thl runs an axlo, universally supported, on which Is a rotating disk. Tho bearing member protrude froui the rasing, and when testing, Is placed against the end of the shaft of the piece of machinery In question. This Is al lowed lo route until It has attained iiiis Dnsea nnd with a mouthful of shat tered teeth, Tom struggled feebly, but without avnll. I'eter twisted hlul, bora him to the ground, shifted grip rapidly, drove hi knee Into the qulvurlng belly and throttled the Ufa out of th black throat "So I make an ndt of him,- panted th Dutchman a It ituggvred to his feet "Ay, wa have made an end to Red Death and Black Death," I answered. "And I alow the two who ran," added Ta-wnn nenrs, touching two cnlp whoso clustered feathers pro truded from his belt. "A cleau swttup," I said. "There will b none to curry th tula to La Viorg du Bols."

The cltUens who thronged th street leading up to the fort gnto must need hold on to their hat brim. "Ar th streets usually so crowd ed?" I asked I'eter. He shook hi head, and I accosted a tavern keeper who stood In hi door way, regunllng th passers-by with an ticipation of the harvest he would reap later. "Tla M excellency th governor," he explained. "Th governor and Mus ter t'olden of hi council hav sum nioned certain gentry and merchant and the officers of the troops to meet them In the great hall of the fort this afternoon." We came to th fort gate and gave our names to th sentry who stopHd all ssv the few th governor had sum moned to attend upon him.

"(lenllnnen," he began, "I tisv sum mured you to meet me here because a situation has arisen which I of the Utmost gravity to th welfur of the province and th larger Interests of his majesty' realm. . Decently I hav been In receipt of a communication In the form of a petl'b'n signed by many of th chief merchants of the province, beseeching me tp abandon my opo slllon to the retention of the free trade with Canada which Is now temporarily secured to them by the artlon of the lord of trade In susendlng derision UHn the law prohibiting the trad In Indian goods which I secured to be passed last year."
