Qn the, 1)90 . 6. of :Preen ,Lake, ; in
Minnesota, there lived •a sturdy, while
haired frontiersman named , Walter
Brown:. He Wll9 one of thoSd-adven
'tarolus'spirita o'er to be found; iil'th . o
van of advancing civilization, always
courting the free, wild air of the prai
rie, and rejoicing in the profound depths
of uninhabitable furegls. '
But the country became - nioYe and
more thickly sottled,and Walter Broun
_became uneasy. His wife had borne
to him a daughter UM - third or fourth
year of their yesidence at the head Wa
ters of the St. CreiZ,:whom he called
Leonora. She was a good girl, and the
idol of lice father. le purchased a
rifle for her when but 'twelve years
old, and took the utmost pains in
teaching her the use of it, ,She was
brave and steady of nerve, and soon
acquired wonderful skill as a shot, and
the number of prairie chickens, part
ridges, wild water fowls, and other
..mnfl_gamo, she managed to shoot
each day, was _
ally she would shoot a deer, and ono
eventful morning, by a' lucky shot
through the eye into the brain, she
killed a bear.
When she came home with the news
her father'could scarcely credit,hcr.—
But knowing her perfectly truthful
nature, ho danced about the room for
joy, and seizing the sturdy little maid,
he mounted her upon his shoulders
and insisted upon Carrying her all the
way to the spot where the dead bruin
lay.
Thicker and thicker flowed the tide
of,immigration into Minnesota and
Wisconsin, following the navigable ri
vers as a matter of course, and more
and more uneasy and "crowded" felt
Walter. At length his wife died.
onora was then sixteen, and engaged
to be married to a handsome young
trapper by the name of Watson, who
had joined her father in business.
The death of her mother had made
it necessary to postpone the wedding,
and in the interim NValter decided to
move to Northwest Minneiota. r i che
neighbors were
„getting too near, and
hunting and trapping were bad. As
the young man had proved up and pre
empted a quarter section, of land near
Taylor's Falls, he did not wish to ei
ther abandon or sell it just then, and
persuading Leonora to agree to write
to him, he bade her an affectionate
good-bye.
Brown lived in, Minnesota for three
or four years in peace and quiet, find
ing good trappingand hunting grounds
when all at once young Watson ar
rived, and renewed the proposition of
marriage with Leonora. The old man
had about determined to move no
more, and had accordingly located and
pre-empted several thousand acres of
land about him, and learning from
Watson that he had money enough to
do likewise, proposed that be should
go down to St. Paul and buy land war
rants with his money, and take up all
the laed,he could "swing." le might
then marry Leonora, and they two to
work, and after budding plenty of sta
bling, etc., would get a good stock of
cattle and sheep, and try and lead a
vastoral life for the rest of their days

ora, you must not miss one of them."
The girl crept stealthily through the
underbrush up the bank to the prairie
above. She knew that to reach the
house the Indians would have to cross
a broad, flat field, where there was no
shelter for their persons. Sho did not
think they would hesitate to do this,
because, having taken the two mon,
they would hardly expect any resis
tance from a single girl. About thir
ty rods to the right of the path a cat
tle yard had been erected by her fath
er, and in the corner of, the fence stood
an immense elm tree. Inside of this
yard climbed Leonora, and behind the
big elm she concealed herself.
A few anxious minutes more prov
ed she was right in her conjecture.—•
The Indians, after having tied stout
rawhide thongs around the feet of
their prisoners, kid theM down in the
bottom of their canoes, strode gaily
and • laughingly along toward the
house, without any attempt at eou
cealment.
Loonora's heart grew as bard as rJ
stone and her nerves—which fluttered
a little belare—Lnow grow as firm as'
steel. She had put fresh Water:piciof
tinpS upon each nipple of her rifle,, and
putting .the,barrel on the rail of the
fence, drew a sharp ' bead upon the
foremost' Indian hut miler finger cur

what actimlby seemed to be a voice

"Nut, yet, Leonora!"
She paused, and then as it by 'in

Leonora had drawn a bead on , him,

stepped from behind the tree, climbed,
