L.u.!.r F4 t r"q ?bv It fll War i4 .p� ?Iz ILS By Max Brand (Continued from last week) His interest in this bylaw nearly proved his undoing for while his head was turned he heard a rushing of hoofs and barely had time to throw himself to one side as the black flash- ed by him. Alcatraz turned and rear- ed to beat the insolent stranger into the earth but he found that the lead- er was truly different from the slug gi'sh horses of men. A hundred wild battles had taught the black every trick of tooth and heel; and in the thick of the fight he carried his weight with the agility 'of a cat. Alcatraz had not yet swung himself fairly back on his haunches when the black was upon him, the dust flying up behind from the quickness of his turn. Straight at the throat of the chestnut he dived and his teeth closed on tie throat of Alcatraz just where the neck narrows beneath the jaw. His super- ior height enabled Alcatraz to rear and fling himself clear, but his throat was bleeding when he landed on all fours dancing with rage and the stinge,of his wounds. Yet he refrain- ed from rushing; he had been in too many a fight to charge blindly. The black, however, had tasted vic- tor and came again with a snort ga of eagerness. It was the thing for which Alcatraz had been waiting and he played a trick which he had learn- ed long before from a cunning old gelding who, on a day, had given him a bitter fight. He pitched back, as though he were about to rear to meet the charge, but when his forefeet were barely clear of the ground he rocked down again, whirled, and lashed out with his heels. Had they landed fairly the battle would have ended in that instant but the black was cat -footed indeed, and be swerved in time to save his head Even so one flashing heel had caught his shoulder and ripped it open like a knife. And they both sprang away, ready for the next dash. The grey mare who had run so gallantly at the hips of the leader now approach- ed and stood close by with pricking. ears. Alcatraz bared his teeth as he glanced aside at her. No doubt if he were knocked sprawling she would rush in to help her lord and master finish the enemy. That gave Alcatraz a second problem -to fight the stallion without turning his back on the treacherous mare. Before he could plan his next :rove the black was at him again. This time they reared together, 'met with a clash of teeth and rapid beat of hoofs, and parted on equal terms. Al- catraz eyed his enemy `with a fierce re- spect. His head was dull and ring- ing with the blows; his shoulder had been slightly cut by a glancing fore - hoof. Decidedly he could not meet the brawn of this hardened old war- rior on such terms. He had used up one trick, he must find another, and still another; and when the black rushed again, Alcatraz slipped away from the contact and raced off at his matchless gallop. The other pursued a short distance and stopped, sound - in his defiance and his triumph. As mp well follow the wind as the chestnut stranger. Besides, the blood was pouring from the gash in his shoul- der and that foreleg was growing weak; it was well that the battle had ended at this point. But it was not ended! Flight was not in the mind of Alcatraz as he swept away. He ran in dodging cir- cles about the enemy, swerving in and then veering sharply out as the black reared to meet the expected charge. Whatever else was accomplished, he had gained the initiative and that plus his lightness of foot might 'bring mat- ters to a decisive issue in his favor. Twice he made his rush; twice the black turned and met him with that shower of crushing blows with the fore hoofs. But the third time a feint at one side and a charge at the other took the leader unawares. Fair and true the shoulder of Alcatraz ,truck him on the side and the impact flung the black heavily to the earth. The shock had staggered even Alcatraz but he was at the other like a sav- age terrier. Thrice he stamped a- cross that struggling body until the black lay motionless with' his coat crimson from twenty slashes. Then Alcatraz drew away and neighed his triumph, and in his exultation he not- ed that the herd drew close together at his call. Why, he could not imagine, and he had no time to ponder on it, for the black was now struggling to his feet. But there was no fight left in him. He stood dazed, with fallen head, and to the challenge of the chestnut he replied by not so :nuch as the pricking of his flagging ears. The grey mare went to him, i ouch - ed noses with her overlord, and then backed away, shaking her head. Pres- ently she trotted past Alcatraz, Rung up her heels within an inch of his head, and then galloped on towards the herd lboking back at the conquer- or. Oh vanity of the weaker sex; oh frailty! She had seen her master crushed and Within the minute she was flirting with the conqueror. The herd started off as the grey joined them and Alcatraz followed ; the black leader remaining unmoving and the blood dripped steadily down his legs. CHAPTER VIII MURDER After they had seen him in battle it seemed to Alcatraz that there might be same reason for the flight of the herd and yet now their running Was only halfhearted; he could have rac- ed in circles around them. There was one change in their arrangement. The e grey mare was second, as before, but before her in placel of the black ran the bay stallion who had stood down- wind from •the rest when Aloatraz 4..4.4Y1.44; -first saw them. He, perhaps, :night challenge the stranger as the former leader had done. At any rate he should have the opportunity, for the fighting blood of Alcatraz was up 'and . he would battle with every horse in the 'herd until he was accepted a- mong them as an equal. He had a peculiar desire, also, to be up there beside the grey mare. Their meet- ing had been, indeed, only in the passing, and yet there was about her -how should one say? -a certain something. The moment he had made up his mind, Alcatraz flung himself about the herd and advanced with high head and bounding gallop on the new lead • er; but the latter had seen his former master fall and apparently had no appetite for battle. He shortened his pace to a hand gallop, then to a mincing trot, and finally lowered his head and moved unobtrusively to the side with an absorbed interest in the first knot of bunch -grass that came his way. To force battle on such a foe was beneath the dignity of Al- catraz, but the whole herd had stop- ped, every bright eye watching him ; perhaps there might be others more ambitious than the bay. He put up his head like the king of horses that he was and stepped proudly forward, Behold, they divided and left a clear path before him; even the mare who had kicked at him when he first came up now shook her head and moved aside. He_ reached the rear of the herd unopposed and turned to find that every head was still turned towards him with a bright attention that was certainly not altogether fear. This was very strange, and while he thought it over Alcatraz dropRe•d his head and nibbled the 1s nearest •1 e cluster t r of grass. At that, as at a signal, ev- ery head in the herd went down; it scattered carelessly here and there. Alcatraz watched them, bewildered. This was what he had noted when the black leader was among them; then he understood and was filled with warm content. Truly they had ac- cepted him not only as a member but as a master! To prove it, he trotted to the nearest hilltop and neighed as he had heard the black neigh. At once they bunched, looking warily towards him. He lowered his head to nibble the grass and again they scattered to eat. It was true. It was true be- yond shadow of doubt that from this noment he was a king with obedient subjects until, perhaps, some younger, nightier stallion challenged and beat him down. Happily for Alcatraz such forethought was beyond his reach of nind and now he only knew the hap• piness of power. He noticed a long -bodied colt, in- credibly dainty of foot, wandering nervously near him with pricking ears and sniffing nose. Alcatraz extended his lordly head and sniffed the velvet muzzle, whereat the youngster snort- ed and darted away shaking his head and kicking up his heels as though he had just bearded the lion and was de- ighted at the success of his impertin- ence. The mother had come anxious - y g close during this adventure but now she regarded Alcatraz with a friendly glance and went about her serious business of eating for two. The grey mare was drifting near. ikewise, as though by inadvertence, nibbling the headed grass tops as she came; but Alcatraz shrewdly guessed that her approach was not altogether unplanned. He was not displeased. His quiet happiness grew as the cloud shadows rushed across him and the sun warmed him. It was a pleasant world -a pleasant, pleasant world' His people wandered in the hollow, They looked to him for warning of danger. They looked at him for guidance in a crisis and he accepted the burden cheerfully. Fear, it seemed, had made him one with them. All his life he had dread- ed only one thing -man; but these creatures of the wild had many a fear of the lobo, the mountain -lion, the drought, the high flying buzzard who would claim thein, dying, and added above all this, man. Not that Al- catraz knew these things definitely. He could only feel that these, his peo- ple, were strong only in their speed and in their timidity, and he felt power to rule and protect them. For he who had fought man, and won. had surely nothing to dread from beasts. The great moment of his life had come to him not in the crush- ing of the Mexican or the baffling of the mountain lion or the defeat of the black leader but in the first gentle kindness that had ever softened his stern spirit. He was used to battle; but these, his people, accepted him. He was used to suspicion and trickery but these trusted him blindly. He was used to hate, but because they had put themselves into his power he began to love them. T31e felt a blood -tie between him and the weak- est colt within the range of his eye. The herd drifted slowly down -wind until late afternoon, eating their way then travelling, but when the heat be- gan .to wane and the slant sunlight took on a yellow tone they began to show signs of unrest, milling in a compact group with the foals frolick- ing on the .outskirts of the circle. The mares were particularly disturbed, it seemed to Alcatraz„ 'specially . the mothers; and since all heads were turned repeatedly towards him he be- came anxious. Something was ex- pected of him. What was it? In case they had scented a danger unknown to him, he cast a wide circle around them at a sharp gallop, but nothing met his nostril, his eye, or his ear except the dust with its keen taint of alkali, and the bare hills, and the vague horizon sounds. Alcatraz ealne bac'k to his co'm'panions at a halting trot which denoted his uneasy alertness. They were milling more closely than ever. The brood mares had passed to a sullen nervousness and were kicking savagely at every- thing that Carne near. Decidaly something was wrong. The wise - headed greys mare loped out tto meet him and threw a course of circles a- round him as he came slowly forward. Plainly she expected .him to do some - thin but t what this might be Alca- traz could not tell. Besides, a grow- ing thirst .was making him irritable and the insistence of the grey mare made him wish to fasten his teeth ov- er the back of her neck and shake her into better behavior. By her antics she had worked him around to the head of the herd and she had no sooner reached this point than she threw up her head with a shrill neigh and started off at a gal- lop. The entire herd rushed after her and Alcatraz, in a bound, ranged along side the grey and a neck in the lead. While he ran he whinnied a soft question to which she replied with a toss of her head as though impatient at such ignorance, In reality she was guiding the herd. She knew it and Alcatraz understood her knowledge, but he made a show of maintaining the guidance, keeping a sharp outlook and turning the moment she showed signs of veering in a new direction. Sometimes, of course, he misread her intentions and swerved across her head and on each of these occasions she reached out and nipped him shrewdly. Alcatraz was too taken up in his wonder at the actions of the herd to resent this insolence. For half an hour they kept up the steady pace and then Alcatraz literally ran into the reason. It was a beautiful little lake, bed- ded in hard gravel and maintained by a dribble of water from a brook on the north shore. Alcatraz snorted in disgust at his folly. What had dis turbed them was exactly what had disturbed him -thirst. He controlled his own desire for water, however, and followed an instinct that -nada him draw back and wait until all the rest -the oldest stallion and the youngest colt -had waded in and plunged their noses deep in the wa- ter. 'Then he went to the lake edge a little apart from the rest and drank with his reflection glistening beneath him. It was a time of utter peace for the chestnut. While be drank he watch- ed the, line of images broken by the small waves in the lake and listened to the foals which had only tasted the water and now were splashing it about with their upper lips. For his own part he did not drink too much, since much water in the belly :hakes a leaden burden and Alcatraz felt that, as leader, he must always be ready for running. A scrawny colt. escaping from the heels of a yearling floundered against him. Alcatraz gave way to the little fellow and warned the yearling back with a sav- age baring of his teeth and a shake of his head. The foal, with head cock- ed upon one side, regarded its protes- tor with impish curiosity and was in the act of nibbling at the flowing nane of the stallion when Alcatraz heard a sharp humming of a wasp ; then the sound of a blow, and the foal eaped straight into the air with g head flung back. Before it hit water a re- port as of a hammer falling on anvil burst across the level pond, and then the colt struck heavily on its side, dead. That bullet had been aimed forthe tall leader and only the lifting of the foal's head had saved Alcatraz. He recognized the report of a rifle and whirled from the water -edge, signal- ing his company with a short neigh of fear; the arch enemy was upon thein! A volley poured in. Alcatraz, as he gained the shore, saw an old stallion double up with a scream of pain and no sound is so terrible as the shriek of a tortured horse. No sound is so terrible even to horses. It. threw the leader into an hysteria of panic. Others of the herd were fall - ng or staggering in the like; the remnant rushed up the slope and ov- er the sheltering crest of the hill be- yond. Every nerve in the body of Alcatraz urged him to leap away with arrowy speed, passing even the grey mare --- she who now shot off across the hills far in the van -but behind him raced weaker and slower horses, the older stallions and the mares with their foals. Instinct proved greater than fear. He swept around the rear of his diminished company to round up the laggards, but they were already laboring to the full of their power as five horsemen streamed across the crest with their rifles carried at the ready. They were a hardy crew, 'hese cowpunchers of the Jordan ranch, but to the sternest of them this was ugly work. To draw a bead on a horse was like gathering the life of a man into the sight of the rifle, yet they knew that a band of wild -running mustangs is a perpetual menace. Al- ready the black leader had recruited his herd with more than one stray 1 WHEN IN TORONTO Make Your Home 110TEL WAVERLEY SPADINA AVE. and COLLEGE ST. E. R. Powell, Prob. CONVENIENT-ECONOMICA:.

BANK OF MONTREAL Established 1817 s w from the Jordan outfit, and it was for' the black, first of all, that they look- ed. There was no sign of him, and in his place ranged a picture horse - a beautiful red -chestnut with a gal- lop that made one's head swim. Lew Hervey, who had kept his men in cunning ambush near the lake, had chosen the new leader for a target but shot the colt instead. And it was Lew Henvey again, who swung over the crest of the hill and got the next chance at Alcatraz. The foreman of the Jordan ranch pitched his rifle to his shoulder just as the leader, sweeping back to round up the rearmost of his company, pre. sented a broadside target. It was a sure hit. In the certainty of his skill Lew Hervey allowed his hand to swing and followed for a strike or two the rhythm of that racing body. The sun- shine of the late afternoon flashed on the flanks and on the frightened eyes ,of the stallion; mane and tail flutter- ed straight out with his speed; and then he fired, and jerked up his gun to await the crashing fall of the horse. But Alcatraz did not drop. That moment of lingering on the part of the foreman saved him, for through the sight of his rifle Hervey had seen such grace and beauty in horseflesh that his nerve was unsteadied. Al.,, catraz knew the stinging hum of a bullet past his head; and the foreman knew a miracle. He could not be- lieve his failure. "Leave the chestnut to me!" he shouted as his men drove their pon- ies over the hill, and pulling his own horse to a stand he jerked the rifle butt hard against his shoulder and fir- ed again; the only result was a flirt of the tail of the chestnut as he• dart- ed about a hillside and disappeared. Hervey made no attempt to follow but sat his saddle agape and staring, thinking ghostly thoughts. . This was the beginning of the leg- end that Alcatraz bore a charmed life. For the mountains were rich with Indian folklore which had drifted far from its source and had come by hook and crook into the lives of the miners and cowpunchers. Into such a background many a wild tale fitted and the tale of Alcatraz was to be one of the wildest. At any rate, the stallion owed his life on this day to the superstition of Lew Henvey which kept him anchor- ed on his horse until the target was gone. A dozen times his men nould have dropped the chestnut who per- sisted with a frantic courage in run- ning behind the rearmost of his com- panions, urging them to greater ef- forts, but since Hervey had selected this as his own prize his men dared not shoot. It was a strange and beautiful thing to see that king of hor'o- sweep back around the slowest of his mustangs, shake his head at the bark- ing guns, and then circle forward a- gain as though he would show the laggard what running should be. The covrpunchers could have shot him as he veered back; they could have salt- ed himwith lead as he flashed broad- side, but the orders of their chief re- strained them. Lew Hiervey's ,ight- est word had a weight with them. However, before and behind the leader of the herd their guns did dead- ly work. Brood mares, stallions young and old, even the foals were dropped. It was horrible work to the hardest of them but this horse- flesh was useless. Too many times they had seen mustangs taken and ridden and when they were not hope- less outlaws they became broken -spir- ited and useless, as though their strength lay in their freedom. With that gone they were valueless even as slaves of men. Before the slaughter ended, young or old there was not a horse left in the band of Alcatraz save the grey mare far ahead. She was already be- yond range, and as the last of the fleeing horses pitched heavily forward and lay still with oddly sprawling limbs, old Bud Seymour drew . rein and shoved his rifle back into the long holster. "Now, look!" he called, as his com- panions pulled up beside him. "That grey is fast as a streak -but look! look!" For the red -chestnut was bounding away in pursuit of his last companion with a winged gallop. It seemed that the wind caught him up and buoyed him from stride to stride, and the cowpunchers with hungry, burning twee watched without a word until the grey and the chestnut blurred on the horizon and dipped out of view to- gether. The spell was broken in the same; instant by a stream of profan- ity Hating up from the rear. It was Lew Hervey approaching and swear- ing his mightiest. "But I dunno," said Bud Seymour softly. "I feel kind of glad that Lew missed." He glanced sharply at his compan- ions for fear they might laugh at this childish weakness, but there was no laughter and by their starved eyes be knew that every one of them was rid- ing over the horizon, in imagination. on the back of the chestnut. CHAPTER IX THE STAMPEDE , The grey mare made no effort to draw away when Alcatraz sprinted up ,beside her. She gave him not so much as a toss of the head or a swish of the tail but kept her gaze on the far Western mountains for she was still sick with the scent of blood; and she _maintained a purposeful, steady lope. It was far other with the stal- lion. He kept at her side with his gliding canter but he was not think- ing of the peace and the shelter from man which they might find in the blue valleys of yonder mountains. His mind was back at the slaughter of Mingo Lake hearing the crackle of the rifles and seeing his comrades fall and die. It was nothing that he had known the band only since morning. They were his kind, they were his people, they had accepted his rule; and now he was empty hearted, a king without a people. The grey mare, the fleetest and the wisest of them all, remained; but she was only a remind- er of his vanished glory. Remembering how Cordova had been served, might he not find a way of harming those men even as they had harmed him? He slackened to a trot and finally halted. His compan- ion kept on until he neighed. Then she came obediently enough b u t swinging her head up and down to indicate her intense disapproval of this halt. When Alcatraz actually started back towards the place where the cowpunchers had dropped the pur- suit, she threw herself across his way, striving to turn him with bared teeth and flirting heels. He merely kept a weaving course to avoid her, his head high and his ears back, which was a manner the mare had never seen in him before; she could only tell that she was less than nothing to him. Once she strove to draw back by running a little dis- ance west and then turning and call- ing him but her whinny made him not so much as shake his head. At length she surrendered and sullenly took up his trail. He roved swiftly across the hollows; he sneaked up to every commanding rise as though he feared the guns of men might be just beyond the cresr, and these tactics continued until they came in view of the small row of black figures riding against the sun- set. The grey halted at once, rearing and snorting, for the sight brought a- gain that hateful smell of blood but her leader moved quietly after the cow puncher; he was taking the man - trail!
