THE POTTER SHIELD From East to West . The Red Rock Saloon was crowded with wild, boisterous, laughing men and women. They were dancing, drinking and playing C2H'dS, with the Wild recklesshess L ' lg- 1 l t ristic of the far West. that IS SO lu Y C MMC G la ing cards, and both money and In one corner sat three men.

He was roughly dressed and hard looking, and yet beneath it all could be seen an appearance of refinement. He was handsome, or had been at one time, and as he sat there playing cards, half drunk with whiskey, one could easily see h l h d been a victim to the surroundings in which he lived. t at ie a He was losing as he had been nearly all evening, and his roll had shrunk t'l he had only one bill left He took a deep breath and threw the bill down on the un 1 - table. The cards were played, and the last bill followed the others into the hands of his companions. Lennard was furious. He jumped up and overturned the table yelling, You 'P damned bunch of swindlers, you will take all a man's money, will you. Well take that. He grabbed his revolver and fired two shots at the men, but in his half-drunken condition the bullets went wild. ' In an instant everything was in an uproar. Men and women came running in from the other room and Lennard was surrounded. His gun had been knocked out of his hand, but he stood there, a great beast, six feet two inches tall, weighing over two hundred pounds, and he laughed a reckless, wild sort of laugh, and dared any one to touch him. His eyes rolled in their sockets and his clenched fists were waiting for the attack. ' Two men rushed at him and then commenced a fierce struggle. Lennard wasn't a man-he was a furious, maddened, wild beast, and he fought and bit and tore at the men until he was free of them. For an instant he stood there, bleeding and torn, foam dripping from his mouth, his breath coming in jerks, and his clothes all but stripped from his body. Then he had an idea. He seized a chair standing near him and hurled it at the single oil lamp that swung from the ceiling. There was a crash of glass and then darkness. . For a second there was a silence, and a little voice could plainly be heard to scream, Daddy, oh, my daddy! It went through Lennard like a shot. He knew it. It was his child, his little boy. 1Out of the darkness he yelled, Tommy, my boy, I will meet you Outsidenu rlhen begah 3' frantic Struggle to S'00p him, in which everybody joined, but the 5335 He exhausted on the Stairs. 7 ng open the doors, he fell bleeding and H' h'ld ' - . . at his Ejtchiru was there, the JUGQJTS 1'0h1I1g d0WH h1S face, his tiny hands' clutching Oh, d dd , Q1 1 ,, LOO?,, a Y addy' What has happened? he moaned.
