It happened while riding with an
other cowboy frli rid of her In a
round up. Three Indian spies of a
band of ISO warrior shot at Clorla,
striking her left shoulder, Carl I '.ay
hud curried her to a nearby farm
bouse and left her In the car of ft
lady and rode to the ranch for an
ambulance, It arrived half an hour
later und Olorlu was on her way to
the hospital. It wus hot nud stuffy
In the small room und (ilorla wished
for her plains once more. Hhe was
IS years of age und had dark blue
eye and golden hair. Mfie was
very fond of animals and very
swift ut riding. Hhe had a swift
brown pony called Hlar whom she
rode almost every day. II u wus
now In a stable ut homo with neith
er curry nor exercise. In two weeks
Olorlu was to leave the hospital,
Mm could hardly wait till the nurse
said she could go, At last the tlnrti
canto to an end find Olorla boarded
a train homeward bound. Hhe ar
rived at home In due time und re
ceived u cordial welcome. Hhe re
membered her pony and went down
to the utable. On -filtering the
Mlablu she was shocked to scu him
iihaggy and weak, ao ahe curried
lilrn and fed him. Moon after xhe
placed his saddle on nud slarled
for a nearby wood. After getting
further Into the woods she slopped
to rest a while, while Star grazed.
Hhe iieard a crackling tiMse in the
line needle behind bor and slart-
d to run. Two Indians jumped out
und grabbed her and HUir. They
bound her arid placed her on Htar.
"Don't be frightened, Htar," she
w diapered, "We'll get thru this
alright." At xiinilown (hey reached
the Indian village. Kit" wan hungry
but did not cat the food placed be
fore ficr becaime she was kick ut
in-art. Her night lodging was a
i- unall slurry tent In which she found
no comfort. At last ulie whlstk-d
f'of'ly to Htar who was behind tie
tent find lulkihg to hlrn while xlie
scratched on iier saddle with u bar
pin: "Como lit 3:H0 tonight, the
t Yuwh have cuught rue, Jlr.ng plenty
of men and ammunition." "Go Htar,
and be quick." He stole out of the
tent, ran along tho long row of
tents und Into the forest. He reached
tho ranch In a few mlnules. The
men were startled when they saw
Hlur, lie neighed and turned hix
ajose toward his Huddle. They n ml
what wax written on it ami ran to
tell Gloria's fal her. They soon had
their men ready rind by ,1:30 they
reached the village. It wax a hard
fight but. finally the Indians gave
way and fled. The men looked for
Gloria und found her hound and,
gagged. Tiny cut her ropes and
took her triumphantly homo shout
ing "hurrah." Hlar was given u

a gun and shoot it carefully.
Otic day his father said: "Lets

You may be mire that Fred was
happy. r
"jIay I take my giin with us?"'
he aski rl,
"To shoot fish?" replied his fa
ther. "No, ltd, "answered Fred,
"lint we might sec something to
shoot at."
"A hear fur instance," his father
replied, and went cm laughingly,
"cs' lake it with yon, if you like
t.
They were , soon on their way
acrcMiS the sage brush, towards the
river, when Fred cried out. "Oh,
look papal" His father stopped
short. There on the trail was a
snake, coikd and ready to spring.
Fred wan about to run hack
w hen his fal her stopped him.
"There's something to shoot,"
he said quietly. "Use your gun
and try to shoot it."
The hoy obeyed,
"Now, lake a good aim," cau
tioned hi father..
"I'ingl" went the little bullet
The bullet hit the snake right in
the head.
They soon reached the river.

could not throw good enough.
"Try again," said hit father. Fred
tried to do as he was told lo, hut
could not. IIk hook got caught
in the willows behind him.
"Oh, pshaw!" he cried, as he
gave a jerk to loo.cn his hook.
"Careful now." said his father
flu he freed the hook from the wil
lows. 'That's only (islicrinan'f
luck,"
The hoy cast again with belter
experience, Down .into the watrr
the hook jiink. It had hardly
reached, the calmer part of the
river when something grabbed it.
Fred felt a tug at the roil.
"What is it," he cried.
"A lish (iiii k land ill" exclaimed
his father. And out it came, a
large mountain trout about 10
indies long,
The hoy could hardly believe his
