message to Blipegosis was sev-

Bill and Marton to their cot-

"I left here for Stoney River
Caves when I knew you were com-
ing. I got there, crossed the riv-
er, unhitched and was taking the
dogs up to the cave with the hot
spring to keep them warm and to
wash their feet in the hot water
after the bad, going. My lead dog

"I've got the rifle in the case
against frost, but I had my "auto
lustie. I stirred ,up an Indian.
Full -blood. Name of Suni. The dog
kept snarling at him, and I called
her off and marched Suet up te
the cave.
"He wouldn't talk. It was plain
he was spotted' there to watch me.
I talk Indian well enough, and
I know enough about 'em to know
that while they use the caves and
like the one that's warm, even
use 'the water, you wouldn't catch
one of 'em alive in it after dark.
They think epirits live there.
"Surd got uneasy around dusk.
He .wanted to bolt. There was my
automatic, and there was Aurorae
my lead dog. 'She Was worth a
battery. right then. She watched
him all the time.
"I had cold grub, and I didn't'
light a fire. I gave Suni some food,
but he wouldn't eat. I couldn't
blame him. I want to tell you that
the noises that spring makes are
a bit blood -curdling even when you
know what causes them. But with
the moon rising aiid shining in on
those stalactites and stalagmites
it's a great stage effect. One of
the overheads fell and Suni leap-
ed like a rockt.
"That finished him. He'd been
mulling things over all the time,
of course. He came clean, Kinoceti
had left him to watch me, so he
could claim the reward for giving
me away to you - to the post.
You were on the way. And Kin-
oceti was sore at Marion for some-
thing she had said to him once, -
though of course that was just a
blind -and he was going to get
even with her.
"Well, that settled it. I went
after him hard for a few minutes.
Aurora helped -a lot. He said
that Kinoceti had stolen My knife
and killed Regnier. The tribe knew
it, but they would not give him
away to a white man."
"Go on, McLeod," said O'Rourke,
"I want to get at the finish of
this."
"There's not much more. I got
my things together. The dogs
were a bit tired and hard to han-
dle, but I harnessed them. I tied
up Suni, and then Byrne showed.
We left Suni for my ace in the

hole. I don't think •he'll go back
on the confession. You know the
rst."
"My handle out to you, Mae
Leod," said O'Rourke. "You didn
know how I'd take this tale of
unt's. You'd-. have come anyway
to help your sister." He peered
out the window. "Bay, I wonder
if those devils -come on!" He
jumped toward the door. "I've an
idea Nipegosis may be needing
us!" •
They heard groans when they
got to the Conjuror's house. Kin-
oceti was right. He knew wiz-
ards. He and his men had crept
in on the shman. unawares.
Three of them: Kinoceti, another
and a third breed, whose .leg was
bound up and who was none the
more merciful for it. Kinoceti, too,
was blood-stained.
Nipegosis had, no time to use
hie, tricks, to beat his drums to
go into a trance and, throw his
voice, using hidden knowledge.
He was oely an old man In the
rude hands of marauders and mur-
derers. But he was Nipegosis!
And he mocked them, even as
they heated his iron skillet and
threatened him. He mocked them
when it seared his flesh, not deep-
ly at first, by Kinoceti's orders. He
cursed th,em, also, and almost
made them give up their purpose.
Only the "caribou" in them kept
them to it, and Kinoceti's gibes.
Even he had qualms that were
part of his being, handed dovv-n to
him from ancestors who believed
in ghosts.
That superstition, the need to
get away from White Rock, where
the cursed sergeant of the Moun-
ties had won out, where things
had happened not at all according
to his calculations, tied up with
his mounting rage; made Kinoceti
give an order.
"Set the pan on his belly! Burn
the stomach out of him! He is
only- a man who claims lie ,is a
wizard. If you won't, I will."
He seized. the red-hot skillet
from the top of the stove and
lowered it. Nipegosis's will held
firm. He would not tell about the
gold, but he shrank from the
glowing metal. He, was very ole
-and he moaned while he strove
to check those involuntary sounds
from shame. But he was old and.
weak, and it was hard to control
both mind and body.
"You won't talk? You won't?"
shouted Kinoceti in a frenzy.
"Then Ill broil you alive."
The door was thrust open. A
sudden gun barked. Kinoceti
dropped the cherry red pan,
whirled about, spinning like a run-
down top. fell with a bullet in this
brain.
O'Rourke, with his still smoking
gun, Byrne, and Will MacLeod
covered the other two. There was
a sickening smell of scorching
flesh. O'Rourke lifted Kinoceti's
head from the skillet with his
foot. The two breeds cowered.
Nipegosis shuddered and sat up.
He could not stand yet. This had
cut his last remaining tenure of
life in lhalf. Yet he was thank-
ful. •
We'll send Marion over to
him," suggested MacLeod. "Take
these two birds along."
"Wait," said Nipegosis hoarse-
ly. "Wait! They should be killed.
I hope the white man's justice
sees them killed, since mine is no
longer powerful. But -now that
Kinoceti lies dead --" I will say
what I have wished to say before,
only the ways of my tribe for-
bade Regnier. I, Nipegosis, say
this, and can prove it at the white
man's tribunal.
"I say more. These dogs came
to me, seeking to find the secret
af the white rock that carries gold
and which the white men have
lo.st. 1 gave it once to a kinsman,
who is dead. I will give it again
tie those who have aided me. To
the maid who is your sister, Mak-
liodo, to you, and to this soldier
of the while man'a king."
"Not to me," said O'Rourke.
"Regulations all against it. Im
turning my share over to Dick
Byrne."
"Dick Byrne? Why to him? Not
that he's not one swell chap; but
I did not think you knew him,"
said Will MacLeod.
"Why? Because he's a good
man," said O'Rourke convincng-
ly. "Becauee e don't need it. Be-
cause it'll all 'stay in the family,
where it belongs. Your sister is
going to marry him. And more
power, to all of you! Walk out,
ahead of me, you coyotes," he
said to the breeds. "I haven't got
handcuffs to go around, but we'll

Dntario Grain Crops Were Good
The 1950 growing season has
been favorable to the grain and
hay crops of Ontario, but has caus-
ed lower production of many of
the special crops, judging by infer-
mation contained in the September
crop report issued by the Statis-
tics Branch of the Ontario Depart-
ment of Agriculture. With the ex-
ception of soybeans and buck-
wheat, the grain crops of the
province all show higher yielfis

He's an old man now and hes

all he has -his trade. He has no
wife, or children, or home. He sees
nothing ahead as he looks into the

now, but it's too late. He knows
now what he would do if he could

HINTS ON HOW TO KEEP
YOUR EGG QUALITY UP
() Unwashed eggs look
better and keep better
than those that have been
washed. Clean litter, clean
dropping boards and clean
nesting material are essen-
tial. Wash as few eggs as
possble. Keep your birds'
feet clean by wiring off
dropping boards or pits.
(2) Remember that eggs
start to germinate at
around 60 degrees -and
it doesn't take much heat
to reduce your eggs to
grade. Keep your eggs in
a room -or cellar -where
▪ the temperature is even
