'llio tiall on the summit of the range ran over n naiiow table land for = ovcial miles nnd then entoicd the deep pine ami ccdai foiest at the othci oxtiomlty of the chain of great hills over which I was going A rldo of twelve miles fuither , and 1 airlvcd nt n lonely spot , entliclv denuded of timber excepting u group of blasted cedars about an acre In e\tont. Thcio , a feu months before , A J.

The whites , however. Mill traveled the oldei nnd much shortei route. I arrived theie Just as my vv'atch Indicated midnight SeatIng - Ing mjsclf on one of the granite bowlders scattered over the ground , attci clni'lilu , , ' up my saddle again. I lighted my pipe nnd was about to enjoy the delicious fragrance of sonio Lntakin tobacco which had been given to mo the day before by un ofllccr lately arrived from the states , when my mare , which I was holding by the icln , gave a convulsive shudder and nearly broke awaj fiom mo I could not for a moment divine what had caused her trepidation , for when with me , although a most highly mettled animal , she was usually as docile as a kitten , Tbo moon was nearly over my head , and I ga/cd uiound In wonder for some mo ments to learn the cause of my pot animal's ntrango action. Presently , on looking nt the very center of the cluster of blasted cedars , where It was alleged the cruel murder of Helen had boon committed , 1 caw , not without some feeling of awe , at least , two great green eyes staring at me vllh a steadiness that was appalling. Per a moment I was seemingly fascinated bj the uncanny vision , when contemplating the story of the crime which had been con- EUinmutod there , but In another insUnt nil sense of possible superstition vanished ns I saw the bushes move and hoard tin dead twigs lying on the ground crucK ns If under Iho foot of some heavy ani mal treading on them. In another Instant I saw a monstrous cougar stealthll > crawl out of the tangled mass of brushwood In a douching attitude , her ( all slowly oscil lating , us does that of the domestic' cat when v\nulling a mouse hole. The beast evidently then saw mo for the first limn , and , ns Is natural to the spo clcs , Instinctively diow back , as If to ll > from the presemo of man. It was my beau tiful maie the cougcr coveted , but sinlni ; mo she deferred the fatal spring which shu had contcinplaled at the moment her eves first met mine. I soothed Pctaliuna as best I could but her trembling was not In the least abated , though she rubbed her nose against mj ooat sleeve , an v.as her wont whenever I caressed her She seemed a little more passive ; that Is , she did not attempt thane frantic jumps In her efforts to get awaj that at first characterized her terrible fright when she smclled the cougar , or bj some Instinct she becalm' uwaiu of Us proximity I cursed my luck for not bringing my re volver wlih mo. or some sort of aims b > which I might have killed the Impudent beast , and vowed that I would never again bo guilty of such stupidity There was no tiKe , however of Indulging In vain regrets , what I had to do and do quickly , was to get away fiom there as soon us possible , for I did not Know how noon the ferocious brute , marly fmulshed with hunger , ma > bo. might inaKv an effort to fasten Us horrid dawn Into the Hunks of in ) mare , Ignoring my presence entirely So 1 hurriedly KnocKcd the tobacco out of mv pipe , and , Blinking Vctaluma on the shoulder , mounted her as rapidly ns 1 over had bcfoio In my life , and was nu sooner scatenl firmly In the saddle than , without n word or other impulse fiom me , tlii ) made a bolt down the trail that nearly throw ma over her head , at the same Instant ece-ming to shrink convulsively In a frantic effort to look behind her I sympathetically turned my head around and gazed at the bare hill top , this clde of the blasted nduis , and to my horror caw those great green e > es but a few rods behind me , following my trail with a tort of crouching , crawling motion , all ready , evidently , to sprint : the moment It had covered the right distance. About twelve miles ahead , on my trail , from where I had first seen the cougar , In a lurrow valley , nurrouudcd bjr lofty uiouu' lalns heavily timbered , tin' firtvoinmcnt had eteetcd a block house and a corral. In which wen herded a number of horses anil i mules , to be uuil ns reln.vs between the i mllltarv posts I 1m | ed that 1 should bo able to make that point In about two houri from the cluster of cedais. but now that the lougai had intend ns n factor In mj cnle-uhitlons. I did not Know whether I should roach the Idoek house nt nil , or majbe only on foot , with my beautiful mare's bones luft on the tiall , picked clean by the vlc'ous ' beast that was following mo. mo.When 1 noticed that the cougar was ti aw ling In Its ciouthlng attitude behind me , I had picsctiio ; of mind enough to think It 1 icltud In my hoi so and made hot walk It would Impress the cougar with the fact that 1 was theie us well as the animal It wanted to devout for Its late suppei I could thvvntt Its designs , ns 1 felt confident Hint , true to Its Instincts , It was realb aftilld of mo , I succeode-d , with great dif ficult * , howevei , In coaxing my marc Into a slow wnlK , the effect of which resulted , an 1 Mummed It would. The cougar ceased , a oiue , Its feaif.ul bounds , nnd settled Into a shambling soil of a gnlt , dropping further behind me nt the moment Desirous of Knowing foi a ceitalnty whethei Hi ) Indies weie the sudden cause of the "inature's change of movements 1 agii'n ' artcd Petiilutii.i Into a quick 'fl"-- ' \lih the nld of mv quirt , and the instant ( he hurt ' at notliut the mate's renewed if- rurts to get aw.-iv U < ommcnced Its foimer notions. 1 then clniKctied my gait and to nn Intfii'f s.itlsfiutlon. the cougar once mom Ing ed bc'hlnd icnuwlng Its slow movements nml seemed to bo now watchIng - Ing the ildnr closer than It did the marc 1 did not ngili. dare to let Potaluma go nnv fnstci tlmn a walk and during the whole twidvo miles to the block house as long as I maintained that slow gait the cougar did not tiv to iptlng tow aid us. Aftei continuing In that tlicsomo mannei foi oliciul font hours I at last entered the little vallev , and Just us 1 iodo out of the luavv tlmbci into the bright moonlight the teiilblo beast gave one awful roil and turned back Into the forest , a sad nnd dis appointed cougar. I chiingcd animals at the block house and iudi on to the liver without further advcntiiie happy In having saved my beauti ful 1'ctalumn , and possible m > self , from the Jaws of the hungr > beast which had been my unwelcome companion for so many wcnij miles.
