"Tre just got him off to sleep on the
bed there." She pointed to a deerskin
nrtain in the corner.
"What: They been frightening him?"
Mrs Rone looked oddly at November
but If he beard us talking he
Blight get scared, lor we man who's
teen robbing me was in this room not
•Lx hours ago, and Danny saw him.''
November raised bis eyebrows.
"Huh! That's fierce!" he said. "Dan
ny s rising three, ain't he? He could
tell."
"Nothing at all. It was after dark,
aud tbe man had his face muffled.
Danny said he was a real good man
He gave him sugar from the cup
board." said Sally.
"His hands, what like was his hands?
He gave tbe sugar."
. "1 thought of th*t. t>nt Danny says
he had mitts on It's more'n three
weeks now since I found out tbe traps
were being meddled with. It was done
v»rv ennnlng, but 1 bare my own way
e>f baiting them, and tbe thief, though
he's a cleTer woodsman and knows a
heap, never dropped to that. Some
times he'd set 'em and bait 'em like as
If they were never touched at all, and
other times he'd just make it appear
as if the animal had got Itself out"
"He must have left tracks," said Joe
"Some, yes Bot be mostly worked
when snow was facing. He's cun
ntng."
"Did any one e*er see his tracks bot
you?"
"Sylvester did."
"How was that?" said Joe. with sud
den Interest.
"1 came on Sylvester true eveniuu
when I was trailing tbe robber "
"Perhaps Sylvester uimvelf WHS tbe
robber."
Mrs R"oe shook ner heart.
"It wasn't h.rn, Joe. He couldn't a
kw-wn I was comln' OP him, and his
trscks was quite different."
"Well, but tonight? You say the
thief come here tonight? What dkl he
do that for?" said Joe. pushing the to
hncco firmly into his pipe bowl.
"He had a good reason." replied Sal
ly, with bitterness. "I,afrt Thursday
when I was on my way back from put
ting my letter under your door I beard
something rustling tbrotigh tbe scrub
ahead of tee. It njlgbt have been a
lynx, or it might have been a dog, but
when I come to tbe trap I saw the
thief had made off that mtnute, for
he'd been trying to force open the trap,
and when be heard me lie wrenched
hard, yon bet. but he was bound to
take care—not to be too rough."
"Good fur, you mean?"
"Good?" Sally's face flashed a soft,
crimson. "Good? Why, I've never
>een one to match It. It was a black
fox. lying dead there, but still warm,
for it bad but just been killed. The
pelt was fair in its prime, long and
silky and glossy. You can pies®, No
vember, what that meant for Danny
and me nest winter, that I've been
worrying about a lot. Tbe wboopiug
cough's weakened biin down bad. and
I thought of the things I could get for
bim while I was skinning out tbe pelt."
Sally's voice shook, and her e.ves filled
with tears. "Ob, Joe. it's hard—bardl
The skin was worth S9OO anywhere,
and I come home just singing. I fixed
it at once, and then, being scnred-like.
1 bid it in the cupboard over there be
hind those old magazines. No one but
Kuby knew that 1 had got it. I left
Ruby here, but Mr*. Scats had her sev
enth yesterday morning, and Ruby ran
over to help for awhile after sbe put
Danny to bed. Tbe thief um»t have
been on tbe watch and seen her go."
"Where's liuby now?" Joe inquired.
"She's slopping the night. They sent
over to tell me." replied Sally. "Well,
to go on, I had a lynx in one of my
traps which got dragged right down by
Deerborn pond, so I was more than
special late. Danny began at once to
teil me about the man that came In
I rushed across and looked In the cup
board. The black fox pelt.was gone
of course?'
"What did Danny say about the
man ?**
"Said he hud on a big hat and n
neckerchief. He didu't speak a word:
gave Danny sugar, as I have said. Hp
mast 'a' been here some time, for he's
ransacked the place high and low and
took nearly every pelt 1 got this sea
Kon."
.loe looked np. "Those pelts mark
ed?"
"Yes. My marfs on some—seven
pricks of a needle."
"You've looked around the bouse to
see if he Jeft anything?"
"Sure!" Saily pnt ber hand in ber
pocket.
"Whatr
"Only this." Sbe opened her hand
and disclosed a rifle cartridge.
Joe examined It- "Soft noned bullet
for one of them fancy English guns
Where did you tind it'/*"
"On the floor by the table."
"Huh.'" said .JOc. and. picking up tbfc
I tamp, be began carefully and method
' Ically to examine every tncb of the
j room.
"Any one but me been using tobacco
! fn here lately?" be asked.
"Not that I know of," replied Sally
"A cool hand," said November
"When he'd got the skin be stopped
to fill bis pipe. It wag then be dropped
the cartridge—lt came out of Ills pock
et with tbe pipe. I expect. All that I
can tell you about him i 9 that hp
smokes Gold Nugget"—he pointed to
tbe shreds—"a.ud carries a small bore
make of English rifle. Hello! Where's
the old bitch?"
"Old Rizpali? I duniio, less she's
gone along to Scats' place. Kuby'd
i take her if she could, she's that scairt
of the woods, but Rizpah's never left
: Danny before."
Joe drained his cup. "We've oot
found much Inside the house," said he
1 "As SO<*TI as the sun's up we'll try our
j hick outside. Till then I guess we'd
i best put in a done."
Mrs. Rone made up a shakedown ot
. skins near the stove and disappeared
behind the deerskin curtain
When T awoke next mornlntr it wm
to see. with some astonishment, that
a uew personage had been drawn Into
onr little drama of the wooils A dark
bearded man In the uniform of a game
warden was sitting on the other side
of tbe stove.
"This is Game Warden Evans. Mr.
Quaritch." she said. "He was at
Scats' last night. There be bea rd
about me losing fur from the traps and
come right over to see if be couldn't
help me."
Having exchanged the usual saluta
tions. Evans remarked good humor
i edJy:
"November's out trailing the robber.
Him and me's been talking about the
black fox pelt. Joe's wasting his time
all right. I can tell him who tbe
thief ie."
"Tou know!" I exclaimed
Evans nodded. "1 can find out any
time."
"How?"
"Care to see?" He rose and went to
tl»e door. "Guess Joe missed It." he
said, pointing with his finger.
I turned in the direction indicated
and saw that upon one of tbe nails
which bad been driven into the door of
tbe cabin some bright colored threads
were bangiug. Going nearer I found
them to be strands of pink and gray
worsted, twisted together.
"What d'you think of that?" asked
Evans, with a heavy wink.
Before I could answer Joe came into
«I?bt round a clump of bush on the
edge of the clearing.
"Well," called the game warden,
"any luck?"
"Not just exactly," he said.
"What do you make of that?" asked
Evans again, pointing at the fluttering
worsted, with a glance of suppressed
triumph at Joe.
"Huh!" said November. "What do
you ?"
"Pretty clear evidence that, ain't it?
The robber caught his neeker OD
nails as he slipped out. We're (jetting
closer. Euglish rifle. 'Gold Nugget' in
his pipe, and a pink and gray neeker.
Find a chap that owns all three. It
■"•ant be difficult. Wardens have eyes
in their beads a* well as you. Novem
ber."
"Surer agreed Joe politely, but with
no abstracted look, as he examined the
door. 'You say you found it here?"
"Yes."
"Huh!" said Joe again.
"Anything else on the trail?" asked
Evans.
November looked at him. "He shot
Rizpab."
"The old dog? I suppose she attack
ed him and he shot her."
"Yes, he shot her—first."
"First? What then?"
"He cut her nigh in pieces with bis
knife."
Without more words Joe turned back
into the woods, and we went after
him. Hidden iu a low. marshy spot
about half a mile from the house, we
came upon the body of the dog. It
was evident she had been shot—more
than that, - the carcass was backed
about in a horrible manner.
"What do you say now. Mr. Evans?"
inquired Joe.
"What do I say? I say this: When
we find the thief we'll likely find the
marks of Rizpah's teeth on him.
That's what made him mad with rage,
and"— Evans wared bis band.
We returned to breakfast at Mrs.
Rone's cabin. While we were eating
Evans casually brought oat a scrap
of the worsted he had detached from
the nail outside.
"Seen any one with a necker like
that. Mrs. Rone?" I—- asked
The .wmng womau glanced at Ha
bit of wool, then bent over Danny as
she fed him. When she raised ber
head I noticed that she looked very
white.
"There's more'n one of that color
hereabouts likely." she replied, with
another glance of studied indifference.
FTARRTBBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT. THURSDAY EVENING. NOVEMBER 12. 1914.
"It's not a common pattern of wool."
said Evan* "Well, you're all wit
nesses where I got It. I'm »ff. It's
my bnsiness to tlnd tlie man with the
pink necker."
Evnns uodileri aud swung off through
the door
November looked at Sally. "Who Is
he, Sally?"
Mrs. Rone's pretty forehead pock
♦red Into a frown." "Who?"
(T\ \ * \ \ rr\
"It's my business to find the m»n with
the pink necker."
"" '•"Pljik" and cvey ueoker." said Joe j
gently
A cnsb of tear* filled her red lirown
eyes
"Val Black bus one like that, t uiade
It for liiio myself Ion? asro "
"And lie has a ride of some English
make.'' added November.
