As r.elden neared them Norcross also
perceived that the rider's face was dis

himself, and he braced himself for the
attack.
Leaving his saddle with one tlyini'
leap, which the cowboy practices at
play, Deldeu burled himself upon hi;

The slender youth went down before
the big rancher as though struck by a
catapult, and the force of bis lal.
against the stony earth stunned him st
that be lay beneath bis enemy as help

r.elden snarled between bis teeth. "J

But this was not to be. Berea sud

a cry cf pain, of anger, she flung ber

I'p to this moment the girl bad felt

lie suiTeudered It to ber. and she
threw It aside, then turned to Way-
laud, who was lying white and still '
with face upturned to the sky. With !
a moan of anguish she bent above njp? j
and called upon his name. lie did
not stir, and when she lifted bis bead
to her lap bis hair, streaming with
blood, stained ber dress. She kissed
him and called again to bim. then
turned with accusing frenzy to Bel
den: "You've killed bim! Do you bear?
You've killed bim!"
The agony, the fury of bate In tier
voice reached the heart of the conquer
ed man. He raised bis bead and
stared at ber with mingled fear and
remorse. And so across that limp
body these two souls, so lately lovers,
looked into inch other's eyes as though
nothing but words of bate and loath
ing had ever passed between ihem.
The girl saw in bim only a savage,
vengeful, bloodthirsty beast: the man
confronted in brr nn accusing angel.
"I didn't mean to kill him." be mut
tered. "Yes. you did! You meant it. You
crushed bis life out with your bis
hands and now I'm going to kill yoti
for it!"
A fierce calm bad come upon her.
Some faroff ancestral deep of passion
called for blood revense. She lirted
the weapon with steady hand and point
ed It nt bis heart.
His fear passed as his wrath bad
passed. His bead drooped, bis glance
wavered. "Shoot!" be commanded sul
lenly. "I'J sooner die than live now."
His words, bis tone, brought back to
her a vision of the man he bad seemed
when she first met and admired him.
Tier hand fell, the woman in ber reas
serted Itself. A wave of weakness, of
Indecision, of passionate grief over
whelmed ber. "Oh. C'lifT!" she moaned.
"Why did jnu do it? He was s-j gen
tle and sweet."
He did not answer. Ills glance wan
dered to bis horse, serenely cropping
the grass in titter disregard of this tu
multuous human drama, but the Mind,
less insensate than the brute, swept
through the grove of dwarfed, distort
ed pines with a desolate, sympathetic
mono which filled the man's heart with
a new ai:d exalted sorrow. "You're
rlcht." he said. "1 v as crazy. 1 de
serve killing."
But Berrie M-as now too dr-cp in iier
own desolation to care what lie said
or did. She kissed the eo'el lips of the
stiil youth, murmuring passionately. "I
don't care to live without you: I shall
go M-ith you!"
Belden's band was on her wrist be
fore she could raise the weapon.
"Don't, for Cods sake; dou't do that!
He may not l' dead!"
She responded but dully to the sug
gestion. '-Nn, no. He's gone-. Hi

"May! not. Let me see."
Again she bent to the cjuiet face oti

Again, while splashing the water
up f his face, the girl called upon ber
love to return. "He bears me!" she ex
ulted to ber enemy. "He is breathing
now! He is opening bis eyes!"
The wounded man did. indeed, open
his eyes, but bis look was a blank,
uncomprehending stare, which plung
ed her back into despair. "He don't
know me!" she said. Mitb piteous ac
cent. She iiom- perceived the source
of the blood upon her arm. It came
from a Mound in the boy's bead which
had been dashed upon a stone.
The sight of this Mound brought
back the blaze of accusing anger to ber
eyes. "See Mhat you did!" she said,
with cold malignity. Then by sudden
shift she bent to the sM-eet face in ber
arms nnd kissed it passionately. "Open
your eyes, darling. You must not die!
I won't let you die! Can't you bear
me? Don't you know where you are?"
He opened bis eyes once more, quiet
ly, and looked up into her face Mitb a
faint. droMsy smile. He could not
yet locate himself in space and time,
but be knew her nnd M as comforted.
SIom ly the youth's eyes took on ex
pression. "Are we Ftill on the hill?"
he asked.
"Yes. denrest." she assured him.

"Yo-j fell and hurt your bead."
lie turned slightly and observed the
other man looking down at ber Mitb
dark, and tragic !auce. "Hello. Bel
den." he said feebly. "How came you
here?" Then noting Berries look, he
added: "1 remember. He tried to kill
me." He again searched hi antago
nist's face. "Why didn't you finish the
job?"
The girl tried to turn his thought
aside. "It's all right now. darling. He
won't make any more trouble. Don't
mind bim. 1 don't care for anybody
now j ou are coming buck to nie."
Wayland wonderlngly regnrded the
face of the girl. "And you ure you

"No, I'm not hurt. I am perfectly
happy now." She turned to Beiden
with quick, authoritative command.
"Unsaddle the horses and set up the

Dr. Wintersteen was elected chair

On motion of Vallery. sr., a commit

"Uncle Jake" said he hadn't had any
dinner and he couldn't decide such im
portant matters on an empty stomach.
He asked to be excused and hoped the
convention would put some young
man on who had just had his dinner.
S. Draper (supposed to be full-fed)
was so put on. Convention took a
recess of 25 minutes.
Avoca, Mt. Pleasant, Center. Weep

NOTES TROM PERU.
Peru had one of the best exhibits at
the state fair this year that it has
ever had. The exhibit was arranged
by members of the faculty, with Prof.
F. C. Smith, head of the manual train
ing department, as chairman. Peru
won first prize in general apeparance
among educational exhibits and also
won first prize for the best exhibit of
drawings.
The chapel period on Wednesday,
September 20, was occupied by mem
bers of the budget committee, who
explained the budget system which
Mas introduced into the school two
years ago. This system makes it pos
sible for any student to procure, for
three dollars, a ticket which admits to
practically all school functions which
lequire paid admission. The folloM
ing events are included in the budget
this year: Four foot ball games, five
lecture course numbers, seven basket
ball games, one intercollegiate debate,
one Glee club entertainmnt, one band
concert, one dramatic club play, four
base ball games, and one track meet.
If paid in single admissions the cost
would amount to $10. The holder of
a budget ticket is also entitled to a
subscription to the school paper. This
system has proved very popular with
the students and has been very satis
factory financially.
The school paper will be edited
weekly this year instead of monthly,
as heretofore. It will be knoM-n as the
Peru Weekly Normalite. At a meet
ing of the Normalite board Saturday
morning the folloM-ing editorial staff
was elected: Editor, L. F. Chard of
Brock; business manager. A. Ray
Scott of Palisade; class reporter, Min
nie Applegate of Peru; literary and
debating, O. W. Osnes of Burke, S. D.;
religious, Margaret Mitchell, Elm
Creek; music, Miss Alba Bowen;
athletics, A. A. Wolfe of Indianola;
clubs, Marjorie Bodwell of Beatrice;
alumni, Nona Palmer.
Miss Elva Rulon, librarian, attended
the librarians' convention, which was
in session at Lincoln during the past
week.
The first foot ball game of the sea
son was played Friday on the home
field, at which time Peru met defeat
at the hands of Wesleyan university,
one of the strongest foot ball aggrega
tions in the state. The final score was
2H to 0, and would indicate a decisive
victory for Wesleyan. However, the
result w-as not altogether discourag
ing to Peru, in view of the fact that
the Wesleyan team was made up of
veteran players, whle more than 50
per cent of the Peru team were new-
men. In spite of the fact that the
local team was outweighed from five
to ten pounds per man, they succeeded
in holding the visitors to a 0 to 0 score
until near the close of the first half.
Eoth teams played clean foot ball and
the best of feeling prevailed through
out the game. The line-up for Peru
was as folloM-s: left end, Carl Haney;
left tackle, Charles Spacht; left guard.
Chase BurroM-s; center, Melvin Mc
Lean; right guard, Roy B. Hall; right
tackle, Lawrence Hultonan; right end,
Victor Jones; quarterback, Wade
Caldwell; left halfback, Virgil Long;
fullback, Robert Sandberg; right half
back, William Houston; substitutes,
Ben Hoadley, Joe Boyd, John Sahls
trom. Carl Wolf.
Joe and Ray McMaken, LeNora and
Bryon Snyder and Julia Todd motored
to Peru Sunday to visit with Gladys
McMaken and Mildred Snyder, who
are attending the normal.
Mrs. St. John of Xehawka spent
the week-end with her daughter, Em
ma, a member of the junior class.
At a recent business meeting of the
senior class the following officers were
elected for the ensuing year: Roy B.
Hill of Murray, president: Blanche
Jimerson of Liberty, vice president;
Mary L. Hibler of Andover, N. J., sec
retary; Harry Amende of Syracuse,
treasurer; Merritt Chaffee of Alliance,
sergeant-at-arms; Joe Boyd of Tren
ton, editor-in-chief of the Peruvian.
