So shrewd was this veteran trailer nnilsnch a hold did he have In his town Unit in "Jo I years only two sales had been nindo by rival agents, nud In each Instance they had been compelled to buy the old man off to prevent his upsetting the trade. One day as old Lcm sat in (lie open doorway of Tom Connor's stablo ho remarked: "The man who gets ahead of me, Tom THE SACK C? COLD.

Watson suddenly exclaimed: "Look at that mn:i!" His companion looked In the direction indicated, but In the gathering gloom wns tinabln to detect anything that look ed like a human figure. "I think you were mistaken'," he re plied. "Was ho white or Iriilliin?" "Whito and dressed In the garb of a miner." "Well, ho Is gone now, and we'll think no more about him." Hut the speaker by no means felt the assurance lie iiKsumed. They valued their wealth enough to feel ready to peril their lives for Its unfi1 ty, and the sight of the bUuugcr they had seen loitering around the camp nt sunset filled both with a vngue intensities. They lounged around tho outside, smok ing their pipes, until a late hour, when they withdrew within their dilapidated tent and lay down. They were so wea ried with their unusually hard labor that must rise up early In the morning and sit l)0lh nIik into a heavy slumber. uu late o' nights: In fact, he must Btay lip most all the time." Tom laughed and replied, "I guess j that's about right, Lorn," I At this point Hill Gardner, the portly I constable, who wns sltKog oa a barrel, j enjoying an after dinner clgnr, piped out, "What Leni I'routy don't know about j sellin houses ain't worth knowin. an I'll j bet $10 to oue on him any day." Some days later, as old I.em sat In the stable doorway smoking and chatting I with a party of acquaintances, his eyo I rested on a new sign In bold clinracti rs which read, "Andrew Gray, Ileal Ks- ! tote." "Aha!" exclaimed the old trnder. : "Who Is this? We'll have to look into j the matter and give him his passports." ' Shortly afterward the ollice door open- I ed, and a young mnu stepped out. Ho i wns tall and slightly round shouldered, 1 with red curly hair and the foundation of a sandy beard, while Ids doilies were worn and somewhat seedy. He present- j ed the appearance of a young mini from the country. I "A verdant hayseed!" cMluluicd the old trader. "That's easy game enough." llo spoke so loudly that the young mitn ! cast a sharp glance nt him ns lie passed down the street. Immediately old I.em started in pur- i suit, and, by keepim; nt a safe distil. lee and Inquiring of neighbors nnd acquaint ances with whom he saw the young man talking, he managed to learn t lint bis young rival had effected a sale und that the papers were to lie drawn up on the morrow. That evening the veteran tinder called upon Mr. Andrew Gray at his ollice. 1 "Mr. Lemuel I'routy, sir," Kiiid that i worthy gentleman, seating himself In a chair, with some emphasis. "Good evening, sir." said the young man, with a glance that seemed to say. "I have seen you before nud don't enter tain a very good impression of yon." "Well, sir," began old I. em, "I s'pose you know who I inn. For 2o years I've handled all tho property that's hi en sold around" here, nnd whenever I've had a competitor I'vo squelched him. Now I understand, sir, that you've iunde a sale, and I just dropped around to say Unit the mnn you've traded with Is an old f l ieu I of mini!, und that I have a place wliieli I know be would like a great deal better Unless you are willing to make it right with ine I shall see him nt ouee." ",Sir," replied Mr. Gray rather sharply, "the trade Is all made, und he lias agree. I to tako the place." "Agreed 1" thundered old Lem "What's that niuount to? I know the man better than you do, afid when I can give him a better place nud save him money, too, hn won't be fool enough to take yours." A look of deep concern overspread the tho fnce of Andrew Gray, anil for some time ho was lost In thought. I'lipilly lie looked up and Inquired: "If I give you hnlf my commission, will you be satisfied V" "Yes, perfectly," replied old I-ein, his face beaming with triumph. "Agreed," nald Mr. Gruy. "I will give you one-halt of what 1 get for selling the place. Tho papers will be passed at noon tomorrow. Good evening, sir." he added abruptly. "Good evening," returned old Lem as he sauntered slowdy out of the ollice. "The easiest one yet," he chuckled us lie latched the door. MRS. GALLUP DOOMED llefore stretching out upon their blan kets Watson placed the sack containing the greater part of the gold whero he felt certain it could not be disturbed without awakening him. Watson wan awakened an hour or two Inter by something about his head. For a second or two lie was bewildered, and then when be regained his senses he cniuilit the glimpse of a mail's hand dis appearing throtiith n rent In the ennvns. nnd the same full moon which displayed tills startling fnct revealed the more alarming one that the sumo human hand contained his sack of gold. l'.y this time the truth (lashed upon the miner, and, coming bolt upright with the suddenness of lightning, lie emptied tiie whole live barrels of his revolver after the disappearing form of the thief. Hubert, starting up nt the snme time, did the same, nnd both dashed outside the tent. As they did so they saw the figure of n man of enormous proportions leap ncross n small brook. "Chase the infernal villain!" called out Watson ns he sprung after him. The two did not hesitate a moment, but started in full pursuit of the thief, who shortly after turned to the left and took to the woods. The Intter, however, were quite op"t) and sparse, ami In the bright moonlight they could see his huge figure Hitting in and out among the trees. A few hundred yards or so revealed the Interesting fact that both fugitive and pursuers were about equally matched. Our young friends shouted to tho thief nnd ordered him to stop under pain of being Instantly shot down: but. as a mat. tor of emirse, he paid no heed to them.
