the entire side of the ravine was lull of

make us all rich, If It could bo taken

Then we held a eonnultntlon.
Just above the liolnt where we had
r.iailo those discoveries the puny stream
dropped from n hluh fall.
"V.t wo only lied plenty of water thnr,
v.'e could work her by hydrulleks," imld.

That set m .o thinking.
"There must be plenty of water there
In the wet season," I obt.-rved. "Ke
iflcniber this Is called Freshet Creek."
"lb'Kobs. that's so," nodded (lanlty.
"Will a bit nv a dam up above we could
Kit force to throw the warther chine
to th' top av this bank."
fllntjer said nothlnK. but looked very
v:lsj.
We worked at the bank for awhile,
but. although It wan very rich, the
work of Kettlni,' It by the panful to the
Htivatu and washliiK out the "yaller"
did not make It very profitable.
lib; Hen thoiu;ht wo had better build

Klvo u-i nil the water we needed.
1 had un Idea.
"The hprlnn rains woull clean out our
dam In u twinkling." I declared.
"Then whut can we do'.'"
"There W water enough here now, II
wo can hold back n j;ood pond above
the fall."
They saw t was rlKht.
The next day Davis and C.urrlty were
off for Custer to Bet hose pipes tmil noz
zles. The rest of us went to work building
the dam.
We woiked like beavers.
We had It nearly completed when
Ij.nls and Oarrlty leturued.
They brought the hose, likewise soiiiu
news.

A party of prospectors had been miir

"(i'w.iy, ilar!" came contemptuously
from Olii'ter'n lips. "Who's skeered oh

death at their hands tlmo after tlmo
nml ho kept it up persistently for the
nt xt three days, till everybody wai
pretty sick of it.
"I'll il:; him," said Hen one day. "II
mm his braKKliiK."
With his rllle he shot an ciik1. frorr
will h lie obtained plenty of ft allien
for his purpose.
Ketl elny nerved him ns paint.
With considerable labor he madu him
nt'lf up like an Indlnii one day, am!
then ho had us send niiifrer down tut
ravine on an errand.
When tho colored lad was at a consid
erable distance from tho camp HIk; Her.
came out upon hlin. utterliu a llendlst
whoop.
Olnser wave a choklni? yell of terror
and started to run.
Hut hjs lege seemed to melt beneath
him, and ho fell In n helpless, blubber
JnK heap.
Hll? Hen stood over him, flourishing i
hatchet and knife, as he cried:
"Heap nice fat black boy! Ugh! Ooot
curly scalp! Waugh! His chief tak
black boy's scalp!"
"Oh, food Mlstah Injun, pleaso don't
tako my scalp!" walled Ginger, In thi
most abject terror.
With the others, I had followed, anl
we were concealed at"a distance, when
we could wttch all that took place.
' Ben flourlahed the knife, at-Uhe win
time pretendlnR to seek for a good jrl
In Olniter's hair.
"Hie chief like block biy'o ficaip," h'
kcer a dcrn!" was the old fellow'B re
tort. I stood It Just as Ioiik as I could.
1 really ben; in to fear (ilnser would
die of abject terror.
Of a sudden 1 tushed out. tlrinir Inli
the air with botli levolvers, and yelling
loudly.
lllK Hen look to hli heels.
dinner flopped over and lay stiff on
the Ktoiind.
When I reached hltn I found that he
had fainted.
The others came out and we restored
hltn to coiispIoiimik 'j. but he wni ns
Weak a a Kitten diirln; the rest of the
d.ty, and he would start and shake at
the slightest Bound.
A thousand times he blessed me for
MavltiR his life.
The boastlnp was completely token
out of him.
HIk Hen was Kolur; to tell hi in how the
trick was played, but I objected.
1 mnde them all promise they would
Ufep still till OIiiKer Rot to boasting
nKaln.
He was not taken that way.
Hut his admiration and love for me
seemed unbounded. Apparently he
nlneerely believed that 1 had saved U
life, and he was so inateful that he
could not do too much for me.
lte.illy he huntf about me so much that
he bcKan to be a nuisance.
We had completed tho dam, and It
gradually filled with water.
The pipes wore properly laid, and on.
day we turned two heavy stream
of water against the bank of the ravine.
It melted and came washing down be
fore the force of the water.
We could not use the water very loni?,
for the pond lowered rapidly, nnd It
took time for It to 1111 again.
I iul we could wash down ciioiirIi so It
was nn easy tiling to carry the precious
clay to the sluices we hail c instructed.
In this way we could handle six or
c-lKht times ns much In the course of a
day as we could before.
It paid, and wo were Jubilant.
At the end of a week we befjan to feci
like millionaires.
Then somethliiK happened.
We had been usIiir the water, but had
stopped.
I was Return: my load far In under
the l.ollnwed-out bank, where I thought
It Will liable to be the llchost.
fU'diUnl there was a yell of warning.
I looked up.
A big slice of watery clay came swoop
Ins and sliding down the slope toward
me.
Above It I saw tho overhanging bank
slowly giving way, thf-atonlng to bury
me beneath tons of earth.
Hefore I could make a leap the sliding
clay came about mo and caught me to
the knees.
I tried to ilrng myself away.
Too late!
I was held fast!
Slowly but surely the groat bank wan
settling for the fall.
Looking upward, I felt that my mo
ments were few.
A numbness seized upon me, nnd I
gasped like one fascinated as death
came down upon me.
Then there wns another hoarse shout.
I felt somebody catch me nbout the
body and fiercely htruggle to draw me
from the clutch of the clinging clay.
Olven sudden hope, I did my best to
get free.
Thus aided, I succeeded, and I was
sent reeling through the thick clay, over
the top of It, down the bank, catching
a glimpse of the face of my rescuer as I
went.
It was Ginger!
As I wns suddenly freed, he slumped
find fell, struggled up, fell ngnln.
Iteachlng solid ground, I turned to
,r 'f him In the clutches of the eolllna
e'ay.
1 would have dashed back. but. at that
very Instant, the crumbling bank gave
way nnd came down with n thundering
roar, part of It reaching me nnd hurling
me backward.
filuger wns burled from sight In a
second.
I arose unharmed, but my bravo res
eller was dead.
He hnd dared rush to my nsslstance
when my other comrades stood spell
bound with fear.
Hut he had given his life for mine!
In time we excavated his body and
gave him decent burial, with a large
bowlder to mark his resting-place, In
Freshet Uulch.
On tho bowlder I laboriously chiseled
these words: .
