•,—+ (continued.) In months. And you, Jugg—where could you get money to start m with? If you two are m a scrape it won't help you out to go to lying, I was fast asleep from 8 o'clock till I heard the singing." CHAPTER HI. THE CANVAS JAIL.

One of the prairie wagons was made a prison for the two captives. The walls were only cauvas, and the entrance had nothing more like bars than the cross ings of cord that tied the flaps together. But Deputy Sheriff and Detective Allo way re-enforced the cloth with human safeguards. Boss Donald was convinced | of the prisoners' probable guilt, and he felt that it was right to lend four work men to the duty of patroling around the wagon until morning. He had no sym pathy for Jack High, and not much for Old Jugg Brown; and his rude kindli ness to Deuce and Will found expression m a brasque command to clear away from the vehicle containing their de spised fathers. "I'm sorry for you, Will," he said, gripping the young man's shoulders with his brawny hands and scowling into his face, ''but you can't do anything for the old man to-night. As for you, Sis," and he grasped her wrist with scarcely lessened force, "what you want to, do is to go to sleep. Now, don't cry." There was not the faintest suggestion of tears m her frightened eyes, and the suggestion that they would shut them selves m sleep was so absurd that she could almost smile at it. "Can't I stay with dad?" she pleaded. Aleck Wiams had been active and m Bistent m helping Alloway to establish a sure jail, and to Deuce's request he peremptorily said: "No, you can't. We don't propose to give him your sharp wits to help his own m some scheme to escape, You nor Will can't go near them till morning," "Look here, Mi*. Donald," the girl per sisted, ignoring Wiams, "you're all making a mistake. My dad is a gam bler, and he can't be called a circum spect gentleman; but he isn't a counter feiter and he wouldn't cheat any man out of a nickel except m the way of cards. Besides, he hadn't any money, good or bad, when we got here. You know that," and she appealed to Will Brown, "It is so," Will assented earnestly. "He had to get a dollar from me." Wiams laughed viciously. He had not known before how small an amount it had been possible for him to win m the game, and he angrily exclaimed: "Your worthless parent— he hadn't a cent I suppose, but we find his pockets full of counterfeit money just the same. Where did it come from, I'd like to know?" "He says he won it from you," said Will. "Tell me how — m this game that never was played — how it was that he could start into it without a cent to play with?" Wiams excitedly argued. "Better be off to bed, my boy," Boss Donald said; "you can't do anything to night. Off with you!" Will Brown obeyed the last emphatic command, so far at least as to slowly quit the spot. Deuce would have fol lowed him, but the hand of Donald was still on her wrist. "Little girl," he said, with abated harshness, "you're going to get right into the hammock m my tent and stay there till daylight. I can't use my quarters to-night, anyhow, and you're welcome to them." There was force enough m his one arm to conquer her hardest resistance, and so she made none by either word or motion, but let liim lead her to a tent, which was high and square, for it served the boss as a daytime office as well as for sleeping quarters. It had no occu pant until they entered. From one end pole to the other a hammock was strung. It was as high as the man's breast, and therefore about level with the girl's chin. Without a word he lifted her m his arms and laid her m the suspended couch. "Now there's no use fretting," he said, with what was gentleness m such r man accustomed to giving gruff orders to gangs of laborers; "you go to sleep, do j'ou hear?" and he set the hammock to swinging like a oradle. "Nothing shall happen to your father before morn ing — nor to you. Good night." "Thank you," she responded faintly. "Goodnight." She lay alone, gazing wide eyed and sleepless at the canvas roof, with her mind m an absolutely thoughtless con? dition. The blow had stunned her, and she only slowly regained her accustomed ■ mental activity. The sky became filled With drifting black clouds, and it was at increasingly rare intervals that they let the moon shine through. At one of these times, following a few minutes of darkness, the illumination was so sud den and brilliant that the change roused her from a lethargy which might other wise have lulled her to sleep. An instant of daze, of confusion as to where she was, and then she saw a man sharply shadowed on the side of the tent. It was a startlingly vivid silhouette. The figure's pantomime was that of cautious stealth, and it was her first alarmed be lief that it was inside the tent. But it was noiseless and it disappeared as sud jenly as it had come. She stared at th« cs?t^t- .- — ' ' '^^^ T^ To be gpntiqued.) p ' - )
