Accused of manufacturing "poteen,"
the famous Irish moonshine, the king
of the bootleggers of the Galway re

tine of $00 or rrtl three months n
the Jn II. On the day appointed for
Mi clinic he appeared at the gates
of the prison and announced that he
would serve bis time, ai be wai un
able to pay the flue.
II had not, however, compiled with
the rule of the prison to provide him
self with a police escort and com
mittal warrant. Admittance to the

CHAPTER XI Continued
Peter answered him with th Iro
quois war-whoop, and we sprung from
the aumac clump, dodging right and
left through th tree trunks.
"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

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."
CHAPTER XII
Governor Burnet Is Defied
Twa early autumn when w re
turned to Albany, Th flag over th
battlement of Kurt Orang atood out
straight from It staff. 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. A messen
ger he dispatched brought back word
that we were to enter, and we wrt
escorted across th parade and Into
the quarter of th commandant ad
joining the great hall. .
Muster ('olden met u In th door
way. ,
"Zooks, but I am right glsd to c
you," he cried. "And hi cxrcllenry Is
overjoyed,"
He opened an Inner door and ush
ered U Into Die presence of the gov
ernor. Master Burnet ruse and came
forward with hand outstretched.
"Master Ormerod. this could not
hav been better I I wished above all
things to- siee-h with you. Corlaer,
I am deeply In your debt. Ta-wan ne
ar, you have again Incurred th grati
tude of th province."
"DM you recelv my report from
Oswego, sir?"! asked.
"Cortes, 'twa that and this" he
tapped a document which lay before
him on the table "which brought me
here." .
He proffered It. Twa a report from
a secret agent at Montreal, quotjpg the
derision of the Trench fur dealer,
acting In conjunction with their gov
ernment, to raise th price of beaver
from two llvrea, or on shilling six
pence In English currency, the pound,
to the level of four llvrea, or three
shillings, the established price then
prevailing at th English trading
post. "That, mind you," continued the gov
ernor ae I returned th paper to him.
"was th first reaction In Canada to
th tiding that Murray had succeeded
In legltlmntlxlng his trade over the
lHom Trail. But com with me. It
may be I shall appeal to you for first
hand testimony."
. W deMlted our muskets In a cor
ner or th room, and filed Into the
larger .chamber adjoining, where some
thirty men awaited him. Reveral were
gentry who wer member of his roun
rll. Three were officer In command
of the frontier garrisons. The remain
der were merchants, dealing to greater
or lesser extent In the fur trade, th
great export atuple of the province.
Ill excellency wasted no time. In
preliminaries or generalities, - He de
posited several papers on the table In
front of blm, and addressed himself
to hi task.
