Stokes Co. (Continued from Yesterday's Star.) Henceforward the Herne family plied their trade undisturbed within the bounds of Mr. Lorimer's magis- tracy to the exclusion of all other ypsies and throve mightily in con- sequence, He had been at pains to commend himself to Teresa Penhale, but had only partly succeeded. She was the principal land owner in the valley Where he wintered and it was neces- sary to keep on her right side. The difficulty with Teresa was that, being of gypsy blood herself, she was Proof against gypsy trickery and ex- ceeding suspicious of her own kind. He tried to present her with a pair of barbaric gold earrings, by way of throwing bread upon the waters, but she asked him how much'he wanted for them and he made the fatal mis- take of saying “nothing. “Nothing today and my skin to- ehe sneered. “Outside with Pyramus went on the other tack, pretended not to recognize her as a Romni, addressed her in English, treated her .with extravagant defe ence and saw to it that his family did the same. It worked. Teresa rather fancied her- seif as a “lady”"—though she could never go to the trouble of behaving like |one—and it pleased her to find some- body who treated her as such. It pleased her to have the great King Herne back his horse out of her road and remain, hat in hand, till she had passed by; to have his women drop curtsies and his bantlings bob. It worked—temporaril Pyramus had touched her abundant conceit. lulled the Christian half of her with flat- tery, but he knew that the EYpS half was awake and on guard. The situation was too nicely balanced for comfort; he looked about for fresh weight to throw into his side of the scale. One day he met+Eli wandering up the valley alone, flintlock in hand, on the outlook for woodcock Pyramus could be fascinating when he chose; it lubricated the wheels of commerce. He laid himself out to charm Eli; told him where he had seen a brace of cock and also some snipe; complimented him on his vil- lainous old blunderbus: was all gleaming teeth, geniality and oil He could not have made a greater mistake. EII was not used to charm and had instinctive distrust of the unfamiliar. He had been reared among boors, who said their say in the fewest words and therefore dis- trusted a talker. Further, he was his father's son, a Penhale of Bosula, on his own soil, and this fellow was an Egyptian, a foreigner, and he had an instinctive distrust of foreigners. He growled something incoherent, scowled at the beaming Pyramus, shouldered his unwieldy cannon and marched off the opposite direc- tion. Pyramus bit his fleshy lip. Noth- ing to be done with that truculent bear cub. But what about the brother. the handsome dark boy? What about him—eh? He looked out for Ortho, met him once or twice in company with other lads, made no overtures beyond a smile, but heeled his mare and set her caracoling showily. He did not glance around, but he knew the boy's eves were tollowing Lim. A couple of evenings after the last meating he came home to learn that young Penhale had been hanging pout the camp that afternoon. The eldest Herne son, Lussha, had ed him in, but Ortho deciined, ving he had come up to look at some badger diggings. Pyramus smiled into his curly beard; the bad- ger holes had been untenanted for years. Ortho came up to carry out a further examination of the badger carths the very next day. Pyramus saw him, high up among the rocks of the carn, his back to the diggings, gazing wistfully down on the camp, its tents, fires and horses. He did not ask the boy in, but sent out a scout with orders to bring word when young Penhale went home. The scout returned at 3 o'clock. Ortho, he reported, had worked stealthily down from the carn top and had been lying in the bracken at the edge of the encampment for the last hour, imagining himself in- visible. He had now gone off to- wards Bosula. Pyramus called for his mare to be saddled, brushed his breeches, put on his_best coat, mounted and pursued. He came up with the boy a mile or so above the farm and brought his mount along- side. caracoling and curveting. Ortho's expressive eyes devoured her. “Good day to You, young gentle- man,” Pyramus called, showing his fine teeth. Ortho grinned in return “Wind gone back to the east; we shall have a spell of dry weather, I think,” said the gypsy, making the mare do a right pass, pivot on her hocks and pass to the left. Yeh,” said Ortho, his mouth wide with admiration. King Herne and his steed were enough to take any boy's fancy; they were dressed to that end. The gypsy had masses of inky hair, curled mus- in taches and an Assyrian beard, which frame of black served to enhance the brightness of his glance, the white brilliance of his smile. He was dressed in the coat he wore when calling on the gentry—dark blue, frogged with silver lace, and buff spatter-dashes. He sat as though bolted to the saddle from the thighs down. The upper half of him, hinged at the hips, balanced gracefully to every motion of his mount, lithe as a panther for all his 48 years. And the mare! She was his pride and delight—black, like himself; three-quarters Arab, meddlesome, fine-boned, pointed of muzzle, arched of neck. Unlike her mates, she was assiduously groomed and kept rugged in Winter so that her coat had not grown shaggy. Her long mane rippled like silken threads, her tail streamed behind her like a_ banner. The late sunshine twinked on the _silver mountings of her bridle and rippled over her hide till she gleamed satin like. She bounded and pirouetted along beside Ortho, light on her feet as a ballerina, tossed her mane, pricked her crescent ears, showed the whites of her eyes, clicked the bit in her young teeth—a thing of steel and swansdown, passion and docility. Ortho's eyes deyoured her. Pyra- mus noted it, laughed, and patted the glossy meck. “You like my little sweet—eh? She is of blood royal. Her sire was given to the Chevalier Lombez Muret by the Basha of Oran in exchange for three pieces of siege ordnance and a chiming clock. The dam of that sire sprang from the sacred mares of the Prophet Mahomet—the mares that, though dying of thirst, left the life- giving stream and galloped to the trumpet call. There is the blood of queens in her™ s “She is a queen herself,” said Ortho ‘warmly. Pyramus nodded. “Well sald! I see you have an eye for a horse, young squire. You can ride, doubtless?” ‘Yes—but only pack horses.” “So! Only pack horses, farm drudges. That s-doleful traveling. See here, mount my Rriena and drink the wind.” He dropped the reins, vaulted off over the mare's rump and held out his hand for Ortho's knee. “Me! I—I ride her?” the boy stut- tered, astounded. The gypsy smiled his dassling, ge- nial smile, the heart of a dove. Take hold of the reins. Your knee. Up you go He hove the boy high and lowered him gently into the saddle. “Stirrups too long? Put your feet in the leathers—so. An easy hand on her mouth, a touch will serve. Ready? Then away, my chicken. He let go the bridle and clapped his palms. The mare bounded Into the air. Ortho, frightened, clutched the pommel, but she landed again, light as a feather, never shifting him in the saddle. Smoothly she cara- coled, switching her plumy tail, toss- ing her head, snatching playfully at the bit. There was no pitch, no jar— Just an easy, airy rocking. Ortho let her gambol ‘on for a hundred yards or so and then, thinking he'd better turn, fingered his oft rein. He no more than fingered the rein, but the mare responded as though she di- vined his thoughts, circled smoothly and rocked back® toward Pyramus. “Round again!” shouted the -gypsy. “And give her rein. There's a stretch of turf before you." Again the “mare circled. Ortho tapped her with his heels. A tremble ran through her, an electric thrill. She sprang into a canter, from a can- ter to a gallop, and swept down the turf all out. It was flight, no less— winged flight, skimming the earth. The turf streamed under them like a green river; bushes, trees, bowlders flickered backwards, blurred, reeling. The wind tore Ortho’s cap off, ran fingers through his hair, whipped tears to his eyes, blew jubilant bugles in his ears, drowning the drum of hoofs, filled his open mouth, sharp, intoxicating, the heady wine of speed. He was one with clouds, birds, ar- rows—all things free and flying. He wanted to sing, and did so—a word- less, crazy caroling. They swept on, drunk with the glory of it. A barrier of thorn stood across the way and Ortho came to his senses. They would be into it in a minute unless he stopped the mare. for a pull, but there was no need. She felt him stiffen and sit back, sat back herself and came to a full stop within 10 lengths. Ortho wiped the happy tears from his eyes, patted her shoulder, turned and went back at the same pace, speed-drunk again. They met the gypsy walking toward them, the dropped cap in hand. He called to the mare. She stopped be- side him and rubbed her soft muzzle against his chest. He looked at the flushed, enraptured boy. “She can gallop—my little Rriena?" “Gallop! Why, yes. Gallop! I—I never knew, never saw. I—- Words failed Ortho. Pyramus laughed. “No, there is not her match in the country. But, mark ve, she will not give her best to anybody. She felt the virtue in you, knew You for her master. You need experience, pol but you are a horseman born—f the ‘thigh, slim-waisted, strong hands.” The gvp: pulsed with enthusiasm, his dark eyes glowed. “Tcha! I wish I had the schooling of you—I'd make you a wizard with horses “Oh, 1 wish you would! will you?” cried Ortho. Pyramus made a gesture with his expressive hands. “I would willingly. boy, but—" “Yes? Pyramus shrugged his shoulders. “The lady—vyour mother—has no liking_for me. She is right, doubt- less. You are Christian gentry; I but aepoor Rom. Still, I mean no harm.” “She shall never know, never,” said Ortho eagerly. “Oh, I would give anything if you would!"” Pyramus shook his head reprov- in You must honor your parents, squire. It is so written. And vet I am loath to let your gifts lie fallow— a prince of jockeys 1 could make you.” He bit his finger nails, as though wrestling with temptation. “See here. Get your mother’s leave and then come—come, and a thou- sand welcomes. I have a chestnut pony—a red flame of a pony—that would carry you as my beauty carries s He vaulted into the saddle, jumped the mare over a furze bush, whirled about, waved his hat, and was gone up the valley, scattering clods.

Will you, I love a bold The National Lumber Manufactur- ers’ Association cstimates forest fir losses this season in California, Or gon, Washington, Montana and Idaho at $4,250,000. Of this, $3,000,000 rep- resented loss to standing timber in the national forests and parks; $500,- 000 damage to privately owned stand- ing timber, and an equal sum to logs and logging equipment, while $250, 000 was in losses to setilers and mis. cellaneous community property. Incendiary fires, forest visitors, lightning and industrial operation in clearing land were given as the chief causes of the forest fires, with very few “attributable to logging opera- tions.” Saying “recreation in woodlands” costs the Government and timber owners sums ranging “from several million dollars in a fortunate year to as much as $25,000,000," the associa- tion’s statement suggested that “per- haps it comes at too high a price, and called attention to “the question of increasing restrictive “olicing of forest areas which will greatly limit public utilization of forests, public and private, for recreational pur- poses.” In addition to $42§,000 already spent by the United States Forest Service in protecting public forests in the affected Pacific States, the statement estimated nearly $1,500,000 has been spent similarly by private enter- prises, THREE IN FAMILY DROWN.
