In Helen Mathie son one could understand such a flight; Helen was blinded and en- tirely dominated by passion. But Sonya was not Helen Mathie- son. Sonya had gone through more in her life; she was more mature, deeper of insight, far more thought- ful. For all the fire in her, she did not seem a girl who would ever let passion overrule her sense of right. Her association with Karakhan was simply out of harmony with all the rest of her nature. When they got up to go on, he saw that Ralph had drifted back to the borderline of consciousness; his eyes half open, his lips moving. He was too far gone to talk, but he rec- ognized his friends and understood what they said to him. Curt bent | “Don’t let go, Ralph. We're leav- ing the Lilluars av taking you out. Tomorrow at this time you'll be in Prince Rupert, ~ud there they'll fix you up.” Twice more during the rest of the pight Ralph came out of his stupor for a few moments. The second ‘time he tried hard to tell Curt some- ‘thing. Curt believed it was some- thing about Sonya, for her name went unsaid. ORNING came at last, with the gray smoke-mist curling up and trout breaking the surface in silvery flashes, They stopped ten minutes to rest, and then hurried on all the faster, uow that they had light to travel by. With enn-Og in the prow, guiding them down the river that he knew so intimately, they shot over dan- gerous white water without pausing to scout a course. Their hands were blistered from the paddle. work, their arms ached intolerably, but for Ralph’ ke they drove them- selves to the limit. One hour of merciless paddling, then five minutes of rest; another hour and another five minutes op the sand—in that steady relentless fashion they reeled off the long miles of the flight south. At noon they came.to a sluggish i of teed -patches and sloughs where ducks and geese and teal in mer rookeries, As they were thread- ing a short-cut channel, Curt glanced back toward the lake head and hap- pened to see a colony of little black terns rise out of a slough and ex- plode like a puff of feathers, with shrill cries of alarm. Evidently something out of the or- dinary had flushed them. As he kept watching he saw scattered ducks and teal go up, lower down the the alarm, whatever it might be, was coming down stream. Suspicious, he and Paul stopped, backed into 9 thick clump of flags and waited. A minute later two ca- noes came skimming around a reedy point and headed down toward them. Traveling light, three stal- wart men to a boat, they had come south even faster than his party. To let them go past weuld cnly have meant an ambush and fight further down river. They had to be stopped. Waiting till they were within easy range, he and Paul opened on them with a sudden blast. The ricocheting bullets, smashing through the wind-water line of the craft, sank them before the thun derstruck Klosohees could realize that ambushing was a game which two could play at \"ith their canoes foundering under them, the six leaped out and swam for the near est flags. Maddied and ‘bedraggled, they stood on their bit of quivering bog and stonily waited to be shot, as Curt’s canoe nosed across toward | them. Curt looked them over. Like Tenn-Og they were tall rugged men, bardy mountaineers as virile a type of Indian as ho had ever seen. “Tell ‘em we're not going to kill | em,” be bade Tenn-Og. “Find out where the main band ts and what they're doing, and where the white girl is.” He listened closely as Tenn-Og talked with the siz, but he could ‘Rot understand a word of the clicks | and grunts except the names of | Stam-Kilale and LeNoir. When the palaver was over and | he bad made sure that the six men | could get across to the shore, he | | backed the canoe off and headed his party down stream again. (Copyright. 1932. William B.
