College which he was of attending His parents although in comfortable room stance not at present give him he was ambitions to acq aire It was evening of early spring- The green meadows and pleasant upland fielda were spangled with many wild flowera the air was vocal with the of the reaper sparrows bobolinks and and over bill and valley the son had thrown her mantle of rosy light It had grown quite dark before he reached where his road turned off into a dense woods about a in width Although a bravo boy could not help fooling a slight as he plunged ioto the gloom of forest add the whistle of a near at hand him He had almost half way through the timber tract and waft be gin mug to throw off the shaky as he called it when he and- brought his toa halt and exclaimed under bis breath Hello What- that Bo had caught the glim of a strange light the trees a few rods from the road- At first to bo toward him and ap peared to bis overwrooght senses like glaring eyes of a wild animal Howards palsa almost stood still for a momenta tu he eat in bis saddle looking at the spot with However his fright took wing and quickly recovering he out into a ringing Tho of getting frightened out of my wits at a parcel of foxfire I be exclaimed in self- contempt It did look a little ghostly though at first and might scared almost But now that I know what it is Im go ing to rid into the woods and get several pieces of it for my cabinet Theyll be something of a curiosity long Guided by the phosphorescent gleam he soon reaobed the spot and leaping from bis horse broke off sev eral fragments of the decayed log and thrust them into bis cost Shivering a little for the strange radiance seemed rather uncanny oat them the deep gloom of the forest he started bank toward the road But suddenly he paused and list ened He was destined after all to have real adventure At that moment load clatter of horses hoofs coming down the road fell on his oar He at made up bis mind remain where be was until the horsemen bad passed for- though he scarcely felt apprehensive of danger ho still concluded that it would be the better part of to keep himself hidden in the deep dow of the trees and Stroking Dexter arched neck he spoke to him in low caressing tonej him to be as quiet as a mouse and then waited anxiously for the horsemen to come They slakened their speed as they approached and much to surprise when they arrived opposite the where Howard was concealed they to a halt The boys impulses beat fast and a cold sweat broke out on bis forehead as he recalled now that a band of robbers had recently been creating a good deal of in that part of the country by their daring exploit Perhaps the men before him were the notorious gang and had come here to waylay him He was not Ions kept in suspense One of the men who was evidently the ringleader to comrade In suppressed tones though loud enough for Howard to understand I sposo youve got everything ready for the attack fellows Everythings in applepie order as fur at I know another responded Well I think were in for a Met haul tonight the biggest the season In fact Dye fool sure the his money with him inquired a third speaker Theres nary a doubt about thai Joe the of man aint afraid to carry money In his wallet I on tell you that much The banks was all closed before he sold stock I boppen to know I wasnt standin around them cattle yards fur nothing and Im dead hell have a waU loping big sum in his pocket on tho way homo It wont stay there long though will it He I be I What timo Is It Ben 1 A match was struck but tho light so dim and flickering that could not Idontify any of the horsemen Its jest half past to the min ute replied addressed as Ben after Inspecting bis Ia that said the leader Well weve got to be then- be at the Dover bridge by nine If not sooner an weve got to meet him there haint we lift might If we keep our Hal on And three went into F galloping down the road the clatter of their horses noifs soon dying out In distance Its the of robbers whove making so much disturbance of late Howard to himself soon as they were gone and theyre going to rob old man Potman on the Dover bride and probably mur der too What shall I do He In a deep quandary for a moment I cant here with my hands in my pocket thats awe got to save him if I me see let me see I Yea I have a plan Be leaped into the and then through the the highway Dexter bo said stroking the horses neok you have a hard race before you but youve got the metal for it my boy Go I go I He alrnek his horse sharply with the whip causing the spirited animal to leap forward with a tremendous bound that almost unseated his young rider then plunged up winding road with the speed of the tho direction taken by the brigands It Is Howards course lay about a mile of direct route to the scene of the proposed robbery but bo knew that it would be folly to try to cope alone and unarmed with three desperate men and he re solved to ride around by the village about two miles distant and summon help It did not take long to reach the town for was very fleet of limb Drawing rein before a village store with whore proprietor ho was well acquainted whose son a young men of 21 hap pened at moment to be standing in door the boy said peremp tory Bob saddle your at once with me Bring a lantern and some matches The old man is about to be robbed on the Dover bridge and we mutt pre- vent it if we can Whats that said Bob aghast- Qdiok commanded Howard impatiently Weve got no time to waste in talking Ill explain on way Shant I get each of us a revol vert asked the young storekeeper ho ready to into saddle No no we dont want to kill anybody All wo need to do is to frighten the scoundrels away you ready Ready echoed Bob Down tho road the young follows with swiftness of wind iutenso in the village by their headlong speed spite of their utmost efforts a little more than an hour elapsed after Howard left bis biding place the woods before our young horsemen reached the valley through which the river they feared they might be too late to be of service to Mr Potman The dark outlines of bridge could be seen dimly in the distance they strained their eyes to pene trate the gloom Howard and bis companion ap proached stealthily the sand of the road muffling the sound of their horses feet The night was very there being scarcely enough breeie to stir the leaf on the tall hickories and elms by wayside Although the stars shone for tho sky was clear there was no moon and heavy fog hung over the valley so that the night seemed dark The hooting of the owl In the woods farther down river was the only sound that silence of tho lonely spot Had Mr Potman already come to the bridge And might bo he lying dead or wounded while the robbers bad fled with their booty Those were the unspoken that came to minds of toward and his as they stole closer to bridge Suddenly the silence was broken by a sound It was the steady tramp of a horses hoofs upon tho floor of bridge Its old man Howard whis pered Tramp tramp tramp the hoofbeats from the bridge in a kind of hollow echo He must be now began Bob Bathe was interrupted by which went reverberating through the valley and almost froze blood the veins of Howard and his com Both noticed oven in the intense excitement of moment that the shriek seemed to bo suddenly choked off It was immediately followed by a wild clatter of hoofs and tho next moment a riderless horse frantic with terror emerged from the and dashed up vajley The rescuers felt that no was to be lost- Without slopping for second thoughts they dashed away together up to the month of the bridge they caught sight of three speotral figures flitting about within outlined against dim light of opposite side They were evi dently the three robbers For a mo meet they stood still as If debating what should be their next stop and then as the horsemen with a loud shout plunged Into bridge they took to their heels his excitement Howard could scarcely restrain the to dash with all speed bis horse could command upon the robbora and ride them down j but ho feared their vie tiro might lo lying somewhere on the floor whero he would bo in danger of being trampled upon by hoofs Light your quick Bob said when had sprung from their saddles Mho old man must be here here ho Is be added as light of the dispelled the darkness Thoy ran to spot whero Mr lay and found htm sciqus from a blow that he had re ceived on the of head Tearing away his vest and shirt bosom they found his heart stilt beat- By rubbing him vigorously turning Mm front to side and bathing bis temples with water which Howard brought from the river In bis felt hat they soon had the of seeing tho old man open Es eyes Ho stared about him wild ly for a lew moments and thon as the broken threads of memory came a Who old 1 am Howard one of neighbor and Bob ftborkeepa at Dont know ail brought him to understand and be wit to rite be grateful good Samaritan my and he took
