'Let us go back.'
To tho States?'
'Yes.
'To Buena Vista?'
'Of course. Whero else should
wo
go?'
'Tho last speaker was a dark flood,
brignndish-luoklng man of flvo and
forty; his companion was a handaom
fellow at least fifteen years his junior.
They sat in tho light ot a small lire in
ono of tho famoue gulphes of Now Mexi
co, nnd seemed to' be nlone. Tho car
bines rested on tho ground aside them,
and the twain looked fatigued.
The words of tho elder caused n sneer
to ruffle tho Hps of tho other, and. de
termination flashed in his dark eyes.
'I am not going back to tho States,
much less to IJuena Vlsta.befoio I have
found the treasure.'
'Then, by George! some sun will find
you in a gulch with a dozen feathered,
sticks lu your body. Where's Davis?'
'Dead!'
And Augerbrlght?'
'Deadl'
'.Yes nml If you'll go up the Rio
Grande you'll find poor Knight's anat
omy, and lu tho best heart that ever
.lived in Ohio Is an Apacho' airpwhead.
Thero were five of us when wo left
Buena Vista j you and I aro all that
tho Indians havo spared. Ani Ileaveu
knows that they are after us nowl'
'Von can goback If you like, Kyle.'
I am gojnir to find the treasure.'
'What! go backand leave' you here?
Coino Ross.you don't know Kyle Bains.
l never moro'u half believed the story i
of the lost silver mine, and wo have I
been upon a wild-goose chase.'
'I bellovo wo aro near tho treasure,'
responded the younger adventurer, con
fidently. I do not think that tho Infor
mation gathered In Taos Is altogether
deceptive. But we will talk while we
hunt to-raonow. Kylo, I guard to
night. Lie down and go to sleep.'
Obedient, tho bearded man drew a
blanket about his person, and throw
himself upon tho ground. A moment
later ho was asleep, and It seemed that '
his guard, Clialbert Ross, was not far
fmm tho lund of dream. Ho seemed !
worn out with traveling; but there was
a fire in his eyo, and his ear was on tlio
alert for admonatlons ot danger.
Perhaps he thought of tho three Ohio
boys who in high spirits had i-rossed
tho Arkansas at his tldo a short time
prior to thodato of his present encamp
ruent. Brave fellows nnd full of adven-
turo tlioy were; but thero wero Indian
arrows in their bodies.and on the banks
of tho unexplored streams they slept
the sleep of the dead. Now but two of
tho little band of fivo men who left tho
BuekeyoStato to rediscover ono of the
many hidden silver mines ot Now -Vex-Ico
remained, nnd they had hunted
ruauy weeks with the shadow of death's
wing behind them, and dark mystery
before them.
The Ignis fatuus, invented perhaps
by soma Imaginative writer, had lured
them to the gulches and chasms of the,
to
them, terra incognita of America.
Would they ever escape? It wasaqucs
Hon they could not answer.
Clialbert Ross felt that sleep was
stealing over hltu wlillo ho watched
his prostrate companion, and coveted
the refreshing slumber that closed his
heavy lids. He roio and paced up and
down the canyon In tho light of the fire
Far above him glittered the stars; on
each side, dull, gray rocks, on which
his giant-like shadow fell. Once ho
paused and drew a medallion portrait
from his bosom, and looked at it.
Ho saw tho heauttrul features of
girlhood, bright tluo eyes, and n wealth
of radiant hair, as aucrato as tho sun
beams. 'Sho wouldn't know mo now,' ho
murmured. 'I look so old. I wonder
If all silver-hunters get so haggard. I
ought to go back to her; but not with
out tho treasure. No! nol no!'
He repeated the monnosyllablo with
determination, and tho giant, talking
n his dreams, seemed to respond pro
phetically, for he said:
'Then we'vo got to die; there's no
help for U!'
Ross laughed when lie saw that his
burly companion had spoken In his
slumber, and a minute later, havlug
seated himself before the fire, ho was
asleep himself.
He did not hear the stealthy footsteps
In the canyon; ho did not see tho figure
that caino from the gloom his eyes had
failed to penetrate. j
It was tho figure of an Indian girl,
who carried a bow, to tho string ot
which was fitted an cxiulsltely-sliaped
arrow. Sho saw tho sleeping men, and
never took her eyes from them,
nad sho marked them for her shafts?
Wo shall see.
Siealtlily approaching sho stooped
over.Chalbort Ross, and touched his
shoulder with her Dow. Tho touch
roused him, nnd ho looked Into her eyes
astonished. Sho touched her lips indi
cative of silence, and, stepping bock',
motioned him to rise. Ho glanced at
Bains.
The giant still slept, nnd, confident
that he would not, awake for a while,
the younger hunter nroso and followed
tho Apncho girl.
Without a word,. sho led hlnj down
tho canyon until sho began to ascend.
Ho followed her up tho rough path
to the country above, and oh tho edge
of the gulch the proclplco sho paus
ed. 'Tho country so far as tho whlto man
can see belongs to Wolpau,tho Apache,'
she said, Sweeping her hand beforo htr.
'He owns a thousand rifles, and moio
horses than tho two palo-faces can
count. Nova is his child, nnd tho only
child he has. Sho has followed tho
pale-face for many miles, nml she
knows what brought him to the land of
the Apaches.'
She smiled as she spoko tho last sen
tence and Clialbert Ross started forward
with eagerness.
'Tell me tell me, Neva, whero Is Itl'
he cried.
'The lost mlno of shining i-llver?' sho
asked.
'.Yes! yesl
'What will tho pale-faco do If Neva
tells him?'
'Anything you askP
Anything, ho say,' sho said trium
phantly, In a low voice. 'Ho says he
will do anything Neya asks It sho tells
him about the lost sliver mine. Sho
will try him. Neva will see If tho pale
face is as good as hU word.'
'Try mo girl. Clialbert Ross never
broko a promise.'
Then her right hand pointed to tho
west away fiom tho canyon.
'Do tho eyes of tho silver-hunter bo
hold a fire?' sho asked.
'They do.'
'There Is a wagon train from tho white
man's country'coiitlnued tho Apauhe.
'Walpnn has said that it might halt In
his land, for tho palo -faces do not hunt
silver-mines. In ono of tho wagons Is
a pale girl.'
Clialbert Ross started again.
'Will tho whlto man swear to obey
Nova If she tells him whero the Vilver
Is?' the chief's daughter suddenly.osked.
'Yes.
'Let him swear,'
The oath was taken.
'Nowl cried the Apacho girl, In tones
ottilumph. 'Neva com man Is the silver-hunter
to slay tho white rose.'
With a cry of horror on his Hps,
Clialbert Ko"S started back, staring at
tho Apache, cursluc himself for his
rash promise
'Is the silver hunter a. coward!' sho
cried.
'No; but you have asked too much,
Neva. It would bo murder.'
The Indian girl laughed.
'Well, If the pale face's word Is
worthless, he will die near tho lost sli
ver; but his eyes shall never see It.
Neva knows where it is. Thero aro
rocks ot shining wealth; but tli5 skele
tons ot the old Spaniards guard them,'
'What care I for skeletons?' cried
Ross, I will keep my promise!' Whero
is it?'
'In a few words the Apacho girl lo
cated the lost silver mine, aud sworo to
guide tho hunters thither.
Kylo Bains was soon made acquaint
ed with Neva's visit, the oath she had
exacted from his friend.
'Look here,' he said. 'Wo can't find
tho silver wlthotittbeglrl.that'sccrtaln;
and she wont guide us until tho white
'ono is out other road. A little caso ot
Jealousy. Her red lover has been smit
ten by tho palo girl. I'll attend to tho
business. I've sinned oftener thn(n you,
Ross.'
But It will be murder.'
Well, what of ill Nobody will know
It In J?uena Vista or elsewhere. It will
give us tho tllverl'
That seemed to decide Cbalbert Ross.
Ho would escape tho crime; but would
he not be paiticeps crlmlul to the foul
de:d? In his eagerness to find the lost
mine of untold wealth lost for three
hundred years lie never thought of
that!
The men kept awakn until the llgli
ot day dissipated tho night, then, after
dlspa'chlng n frugal meal, they secured
their steeds, which they had turued out
to graze, and gradually left tho canyon
'Yonder Is tho train!' said Ross,
pointing westward. 'We'll rldo down
and see whero It halls from"
They urged their horses Into a brisk
gallop, and wero rapidly nearlng tho
wagons, when Bains drew rein with an
exclamation of surprise.
I'vo been thinking for some ttmo that
that black mass was a party of Indians,
ho said, with his eyes fixed upor a dark
body approaching tho wagon-train from
tho south-west. 'If they're Apaches
Ross, we want to keep our dlstanco for
the present.'
'Yes.' was the response,
watch them from this point.'
It wns soon distinctly seen
moving mas3 was a band of

that the
savage3,
and some consternation seemed to pre
vail among tlio emigrants. Men were
seen hurrying to and fro, seeing to
their eteeds, families and firearms.
By-and.by tho savages reached the
train, and the silver hunters saw them
mingle with tlio whites.
For n few moments tho Intention of
the Indians seemed to bo peaceful; but
suddenly n yell rent tho air and tho
uproar of firearms followed.
'Heavens! they're mnssacrelng tho
whites! cried Ross. J' Wo must; help
them Kyle.
ixor was tno response. 'They are
doing tho work you wero to do.'
'I care not,' cried the young hunter,
'I want to see that girl. They shall
not kill her.'
lie uusluug his carbine, and
his steed tho shining spurs.

'Ho Is mad!' ejaculated Bains; dash
Ing after him. 'But I'll fellow him to
tho gates of Hades?'
Ho soon caught up with tho oxclted
Ohloan, nnd together tho twain dushed
among tho combatants, and dealt deadly
blows right and left. Several wagons
wero already In flames, and tho em!
grants wero fighting for their famlllos
like tigers.
Suddenly, Clialbert Ross heard his
name called In a woman's despairing
tone.
He turned nnd beheld n whlto faco.in
ono of tho ehattered wagons.
The next Instant, regardless1 of tho
laneos that glittered about him, ho
.cleared tho path and was alongside.
ivaiei no cneu, 'now camo you
here?'
'1 had hopod to find you, Clialbert,
was tho weak reply. 'I left Buena Vista
My God I look for your llfot
Ho turned aud struck tho lance aside
and Blew the Apache whoso hands
clutched It madly. Then a press ot
foes boro him back, but again, after
minute's desperate fighting, he camo to
the wagon.
Katd Aylesford's face was stilt there;
but It was so very pale.
'Kate! Kate!'
No answer. He lifted her head, and
then cried:
'Dead! the devils havo slain the
woman I loved!'
now madly he turned, then, and how
fiercely he fought, the reader can tell
By-aud-by the fortunes ot battle
brought him faco to face with Kylo
Bains.
'Cornel' ho crlod, 'wo must escape.'
'Agreed!' said the giant, and tho two
men fought themselves clear of foos,
and roda away Hko the wind.
Hotly, the Indians, pursued; but they'
never caught the men who.for the llfeof
Kato Aylesford, took terrible vengonce.
She was Clialbert Ross Ohio love;
tier's was tho face on tho medallloii.and
It was her life that tho silver liuuterliad
promised Neva to take.
The Indian girl never met tho huuter
again. In their hunt tor vengeance
tboy forgot the lost mine, and years aft
terward n man with gray hairs onterod
the village of Buena Vista.
It was Clialbert Ross, and he told a
tale ot vengeance that chilled many a
heart. Cyle Bains fell before an Ap
ache arrow; but not until he could boast
of satisfying his hatred ot the red race.
Whero Kato Aylesford sleeps I do
nol know; but there Is an old man who

break tho monotony, Owing to her
youth and the nature 'of tho society sur
rounding hor, as well as tho fact that
sho was Inclined to bo giddy, her moth
er forbade her nttendlng the balls, do

dropped tha marriage certificate. Mrs.
-Tiller found It, and a scene' ensued.
Tho mother was well nigh heart broken
at tho conduct ot her wayward child.
She implored, she remonstrated, and
threatened, but all to no purpose. An
nie was.obdurate. She said she loved
her husband, and would not glvo him
up. Finally she quit her home, and
sought his protection.
Mrs. Mlllor thereupon went to Sau
gertles, Ulster county, to take counsel.
From there sho wont to Catskilt and
took out a warrant for the arrest of her
daughter for disorderly conduct and dis
obedience. Annie was found at jier

Ho husband and somo friends followed.
Justice Russell gave the daughter a
hearing. Ho gave her somo good ad
vice, but it made no Impression upon
her. Annlo said she knew her husband
was uot her equal that ho was fit on
ly to bo her servant; but sho was ,mar
rlod to htm, and Intended to fulfil her
vows. With a saucy toss ot tho head
she added that she had managed her
