Venndlta by another route.
The next day. about tbe middle of
the forenoon, they came to a deep, dry
water course, such as the southwestern
plainsmen call "arroyos," lending
southward from the bluffs. Each bank
fell sheer downward 20 feet, and the
wide, sandy channel between was per
fectly dry. Following on old buffalo
trail, the hunters found a crossing
the only one possible for man or beast
within n distance of many miles. Ite
fore descending into the arroyo Uron
son hesitated, looking northward' to the
bluffs, where a dimness appeared in tbe
sky. elsewhere bright and clear.
"There'll be water running In this
channel before the sun goes down," he
said, as n streak of lightning quivered
beyond the bliifTs. "There's a thunder
storm gathering about the head of the
arroyo."
They crossed the water course and
continued on their way until noon,
when (hey halted. They had begun to
unsndiHo their horses when n sham
"S-s-st!" from Uronson called fallen's !
attention, and he snw the guide draw
ing tight the sadd.le cinch he hnd just
begun to loosen.
"Keep the saddle on your horse nnd
see that it's well clinched, llon't look
nrnundi as if you suspected nr.ythlng,"
r.ronsnn said, without lifting hlshend.
"I think there's some hard riding for
us tn d6 pretty quick. Are you ready?
C5et on your horse and take the back
trail, but don't move out of n walk un
less I give the word. Never mind the
pack mule. He'll follow."
Catlett did ns lie was told.
"What have yon seen, Ram?" lr
asked, as with their horses at a wall;
they started, buck on Hie route they
had traveled that morning.
another. Then Ilronson slipped from
his saddle, threw the bridle rein over
the horse's head, so tlint the animal
should not wander about, nnd with his
repeating rifle in his hand, ran back to
the nrroyo.
"Follow me," lie colled to Cnt.lett;
and in half a minute more, from the
nrroyo's brink his rifle was speaking
sharply to the Conmnches down in the
channel. Cntlett, reaching the bank
hnlf h minute later, saw the Indians
strung in n line extending from the.fur
ther bank to mid-stream, their ponies
ptruggling in the swift, swelling cur
rent, now risen to their shoulders, in
which they could neither swim nor
stand. A Comanche diappearing be
neath the. surface, n red stain in the
ripples doting above him, n dead pony
rolling nnd bumping as the current
swept him down the channel, two rider
less ponies dashed back through the
stream, nnd two wounded warriors
whom their comrades were helping to
ward the other bank, were evidences
;f the deadly work already done bv
r.ronsnn's weapon.
' A Comanche on his guard is a difii
cult mark to hit. Kitting in his sad
dle, at the (lash of the rifle niiiiril at
him he darts his horse swiftly t i left
or right; nnd In battle he uses tin ani
mal as a shii'M. swinging down from
the saddle iilong its side, discharging
his rille or nrrnws from briiraili its
neck. Hut here, with their ponies

could employ none of their customary
tactics. It was only the hunters' strat

"Nothing much. Only a Comanche's
head peeping over the crest of the ridge
we're leaving behind," answered the
guide, in his calm, matter-of-fact way.
"It was only for u moment, and he was
behind a cactus plant, but I've made
ino mistake. That Indian was the scout
of some bund not far nwoy. We won't
push our horses in the beginning, for if
the Comanchcs come after us we'll

For one Instant, following the guide's
look, Catlett turned to see a sight that
'he never enred to behold ngain the
oncoming of a Comnnche war band.
Round the point of the ridge on leap

waist nnd faces brightly painted, car
rying lances, bows and rifles, they

"We must get to the nrroyo ahead of

hard Into his horse's flank. ."It's a ten

.Both the hunters hnd good horses,
and they put them to their full speed.
The Indians, in their first rush, came

A man is ever welcome, but he can't
bring with him his wire, mother, sis
er. or aunt. Since its portals were
thrown open no woman's face hns ever
been seen In lobby, corridor or dining
room. Not only are female guests rigid

ever set foot on the premise?, anil yet
fhe ihouse is a model of cleanliness and
ordier. The place has had a Ion? and
prosperous career, and while the pres

same lines. I have heard of one or two
hotels in other parts of the country that
have been modeled nfter thus one, but
don't know whctfier tSieir experience
has been successful. Washington Tost.
