20 rlii'ir part in the ambush," Brood translated io LSiiifrs. "An" ho says he don't want to wait no lotiKOr. I'd botier take 'cm lo the main hido oui for the guns right away." "Ail riffht," BragK assented. "An' lote ihotn no aecount pelfs with you. But say, a ooMpia the Indians had better stay with me. I don't fancy bein' left alone hoie." A ininuie or so afterwards Breed and half 'I dozen of the Redskins were ridingr from the vicinilv of the shark with the furs which had III en di>ciii(led as of hast value and. the two rcniaininp Shoshoiios passing into the cabin o keep BiaffK company, the half-t>lood and the other Indians were already some distance from The dwelling when three horsemen topped rt locksti own ridge that overlooked it. The th ee horsemen were JefT Scott. Idaho Ike and Deadwood Hawkins, and. unobserved themsel'es. they were quick to discern Breed and hi;- party. " Hey. " De^idwood at once ejaculated to Idaho and Jeff, " I know that half-'^aste that's in tow with them Shoshones. He's one o* Bi'.iggs sick-kickers." JefT nodded, and at the same time Idaho spoke. "He had a hand in the attack on the wagon." he said. "" And unle.ss I miss mj- guess Brngg's down in that cabin there with two o' the Redskins. See. there's a saddle-pony and a couple of Injun mustangs tied up outside it." Glancing in the direction of the shack, his comrades noted the presence of the three animals to whi, h he had referred, and after a moment JofT voiced a command. "You and Idaho trail that half-breed and his party. Deadwood," he ordered. "Find out where they're heading foi-. I'm going down there to take a look at that cabin." ^ BOY'S CINEMA "Yeah?" Deadwood mtittercd. "Well, watch out you don't git your hair lifted." He and Idaho turned to set out on the track of Breed and the group of Shoshones who were with the hall-caste, and, dismounting from his stallion and leadmg it, Jed started to descend the ridge which overlooked tfie shuck. Meanwhile, within the abode. Bragg was casting about him with the object of seeking a fnvourab'e hiding-place for the furs he had resolved to withhold from Morgan; and it was as he chanced to move close to one of the windows of the habitation that he looked through the grimy panes and espied JefT ap- proaching the front door, which was ajar. Momentarily Bragg's gross face paled, and momentarily he .seemed to lose his nerve. But he recovered himself in an instant, and, beckon- ing to the two Redskins who were sharing the interior of the cabin with him, he pointed JefT out and then hustled them to the front door. Plucking his gun from its holster, he took up a position alongside that door with his Indian allies, and there the three of them waited -iilently until it was suddenly kicked wide open. JefT bounded into the cabin, thinking to take its inmates by surprise. But instead he was the one who was caught ofT his guard, for no sooner was he fairly across the threshold than Bull Bragg dodged from behind the door and rammed the muzzle of his revolver into the scout's back. "Hold it, feller!" he grated. "An' don't try no tricks, or I'll blast daylight clear through yuh !" JefT had halted abruptly, and now he stood motionless—was still standing there with his back to Bragg when the ex-wagon boss spoke again. Every Tuesday "I'd plug vou outa hand, Scott," he rasped, " but I reckon that'd be too easy a way for you to die Say. one o.' you guys fetch me my riata, will yuh?" The last words were directed at the Red- skins, and one of them had sufficient knowledge of the English language to understand his re- quest and to step outride, returning after a brief interval vvitti a lasso procured from the saddle of Bragg's horse. Then once more the rascally white man addressed himself to Jeff: "Now wheel around, Scott," he instructed, "an' drop that iron o' yours as you do it. You're gonna take things nice an' ea^ an' submit to bein' tied up, see?" Slowly JefT turned, but he did not let fall to the floor. On the contrary, he . chance, and with a rapid gesture brOdgH butt of his .45 crashing down on Bratj»|j wrist, the impact of the blow causH ruffian to drop his revolver with a gasp of pain. Ne.xt second Jeff had seized him.and swung him round, and. using the vainly-squirming renegade as a shield, he trained his six-gun on the Indian with the lariat. "Back up, there!" he snapped at the Sho- shone "If anybody here is gonna be tied up it won't be me!" (Jeff has gained the upper hand, but is he destined to retain the advantage? What will be the outcome of that encounter in the lonely cabin? And how will Deadwood and Idaho fare as trackers of the scoundrelly Breed and his party?
