I u now homesick in dead earnest,
and resolved, on learning that a mixed
train would start out at 6 o'clock in tho
evening, to push on with It, rather than
stop over till the next week. I hoped 1
might get conveyance to tho claim, or au
all events procure lodgings at C .
So never heeding tho storm, I hurried
at the appointed time into tho single old
iwr-nger car ut tho rear of the long
tru and was soon moving out into the
dim, white country. There was but one
other passenger, a dark, doubtful look
ing half breed, who watched me so per
sistently , though furtively, that before
wo had proceeded many miles I would
have given much if I had remained be
hind. It wa a great relief to mo when the
conductor came in and engaged the at
tention of the fellow, as he occasionally
uiu, wiui inquiries about the lilack mm,
from which it seemed he had just
come in.
I'ierre and the fort across the river
were the starting points to the hills for
the freighters with their lone

luuie teams or six ami eight span, and
big loaded wagons coupled together like
cars, i ne presence of doubtful charac
ters in tho vicinity was then not a thing
unusual.
I confidently expected that we would
get to our point of destination within
three hours after starting, but so slow
was our progress on account of a heavy
train and slipery track that not more
than two-thirds of tho journey had been
accomplished in that time.
The storm had come on again, and the
wind blew a gale, and drove tho frozen
hail in thick clouds across the dreary
country, Night had shut down early,
making what was before an anxious situ
ation almost intolerable.

and was shivering as much with fright
as cold, when tho conductor again came
in anu announced that we would soon be
atC . ,
"Are you expecting friends to meet
you, miss?" he said to me.
I explained the situation to hi"4 hope
fully, but ho put on a rather doubtful
expression.
"But 8'pos'n your father ain't there
what then?" he asked with some concern
in his tones.
"Why, I suppose, in that case, I shall
have to get lodgings, as ft is too late to
get a conveyance," I replied, as calmly
as I could.
"Why, miss, there's only one house,
an' that's more'n half a inilo off an

queer at that. If 'twarn't so fur to mv

to go along, but it's too tough out, blow

"liut, Burely, I can stay rn the station
the waiting room?" I faltered,
"Why, miss!" he exclaimed, after re
garding mo a moment, in wonder at my
ignorance, J suppose, "That's what I'm
hauluig this lumber for, to build a new
one. The old one wont up in a blaze
day 'fore yest'd'y, Twarn't nothin but
a shanty, anyway," he added, picking
up his lantern, and going out hurriedly
at an imperative whistle from the engine.
My feelings at this announcement can
bo imagined.
Upon coming to a stop on tho siding,
and finding no one to meet me, I ga ve
way, for the lirst time since leaving
home, to tears. Just then a rough hand

terror, but mustered sufficient courage
to decline Ids attentions most emphati

thai he had gone uway to procure an ax
or a oar wuii winch to force the door.
1 he instinct to fly instantly took full
osscHsioii of me. The fire poker I still
held in my hand. Catching up the con
ductor s lantern though why I scarcely
can tell I rushed to the other door of
the car, unlocked it and sprang down
1 ho steps. The snow was fully a foot
deep. Hut I started to run in the direc
tion I had heard the conductor and
hrakemeu go away.
The moon was again obscured. It was
squally, and tho snow flakes filled the
air, but I could see far out on the prairie
some dark object which I thought might
be a house. I ran on toward it, exert
ing myself to the utmost in my dread of
pursuit.
Tho dark object proved to be much
nearer than I had thought it. f reached
it after a few minutes, and to my disap
pointment found it to be only an old
freight wagon. I drew up in the shelter
of it and looked back toward the cars. I
could barely make them out. but I could
hear sounds which indicated that my
ersecutor was trying to break in the
door.
"My tracks in tho snow w ill betray my
course," I thought, and yet I again started
and ran on as fast as I could for some
time. I was young and healthy, and wy

only a white expanse of snowy prairie

What would become of me!
It was now about 10 o'clock, and the
storm still raged. C)earjy there was
nothing to bo done but stay where I was
till morning on tho lonely prairie. The
reajly kind hearted conductor came in
again, and rekindled the fire in the stove.
'I don't 6eo but you'll have to set it
out here till mornin," he remarked, not
without a touch of anxiety in' his voice.
"There don't seem to be nothin else.
I'll leavo ye my lantern, thouo-h vnu'd
better blow it out, I reckon, after I go
away, so the light needn't draw anyboly
round. But I'll leave ye these matchei,"
he continued, 'in case ye want to light
it. and I'll lock both doors of the car,
but I'Jl leave the key here inside. I'm
sorry, miss, it's so fur to my place, he
added, after a final inspection of the tre
and a look at two or three of the win
dows. "You can come pretty soon arter
I go out, and lock the car door."
Vith that he bade me good njght, and
set off on his long tramp in the storm
with his two sons, who were tho train
hands. Their work allowed them to be
at nome only over Sundays, and they
wero tired and hungry, I presume.
As soon as their steps had died awav I
fell into a panic. In epite of the stoim
and darkness, and the long distance, I
regretted that J had pot braved it alla;ad
gone with them. Running out, I shouted
wildly after them.
But tho storm boro my voice in an
other direction, and after waiting vairJy
for an answering halloo, I returned to
tho car, blew out tho light, locked the
door, and huddled into a far corner,
where for a lone time I sat. ouite durnh
m ieritr.
How tho moments dragged! The
storm began to lull By 11 o'clock the
moon was showing fitfully through the
broken clouds. But the ghostly white
ness of tho wide, lonely pountry vas
even worso than the wild UDroar of th
storm- The cracking of the car. tho
falling of a bit of coal in the rusty little
stove, the ticking of my watch and aiy
own turbulent heart throbs were almost
painfully loud.
My sensitive ear caught the slightest
auui.ua, uim presently i aetecteq steal thy
footsteps outside. My jiearf stopped
beating for a moment, j. grew dizzy and
faint, but retained sufficient sense to
slide down off the seat to the floor, w here
I crouched, praying silently for the pro.
tection of him who has promised t i bo
our defense.
A slight rocking of the car now be
came perceptible, and the door knob was
slowly turned! A moment Later a rfnrk
face was pressed close against ono of the
wmciow joules that of my odious fellow
passenger!

view upon the white expanse about me.
I approached it tremblingly. My feet
were by this time quite numb, and my
senses very dull.
