or pretend to pay, but for boys on grub
wages it meant only ruin. They soulGnt
pay, and had to forfeit their shares
for next to nothing. And Ned made
one more desperate attempt to save
them and himse6 by borrowing money
on his shares; when that hound
Harkins got wind Of II, and let 1t be buzzed
around that the ditch Is q failure, and that
he was goin' out of it; that brought the
shares down to nothing. As Ned couldn't
raise dollar the new company swooped
down on his shares for the debts they had
put up, and left him and the boys to help
jthelnselves Ned couldn't bear to face the
boys that he'd helped to ruin and put out,
and amt been heard from since. After
Harkins bad got rid Of Ned and the boys he
manages to pay off that wonderful debt, and
money-he sends to Sacramento, for he don't
dare to travel with it himself, and Is kalkfl-
attn to leave the kintry, for some of the boys
allow to kill him on sight. So ef you're
wantin' to hunt suthin', shar's yer chance,
and you needn't go inter the snow to do 1t.
@But surely the law can recover this
money!" said Hale Indignantly. ut is as in
famous a robbery as"-. He stopped as he
caught Zenobia's eye.
"Ez last nights, you were goin' to say.
III call it more. Them road agents don't
pretend to be your friend-but take yer
money and run their risks. For ez to the
law, that can't help yer"
ats skin game, and you might ez well
expect to recover a gambling debt from
short card sharp" explained Clinch; "Falk-
ner oughter shot him on sight"
"Or the boys lynched him." suggested
Rawlins.
aI think" said Hale, more refectively,
shat in the absence Of legal remedy man
of that kind should have been forced under
strong physical menace to give up his Ill
gotten gains. The money was the primary
object, and if that could be got without
bloodshed-which seems to me useless
crime-it would be quite as effective. OF
course, If there was resistance or retaliation,
it might be necessary to kii him"
He had unconsciously fallen into his old
.didacsic and dogmatic habit of speech, and
perhaps, under the spur of Zenobia's eyes, he
had given it some natural emphasis A dead
.silencs followed, in which the others regarded
him with amused and gratified surprise, and
1t was broken only by Zenobia rising and
holding out her hand. "Shake!"
Hale raised 1t gallantly and pressed his lips
on the one spotlesS finger.
~That's gospel truth. And you amt the
.Arst white man to say It,"
"Indeed," laughed Hale. "Who was the
otherr"
"George Lee!"

calumny against the characters of Ringwood
Clinch, Robert Rawlins and John Hale, pas
sengers, and that do hereby apologize to the
same Sign it. That'll do. Now let the rest
of your party sign as witnesses"
They complied without hesitation; some,
seizing the opportunity of treating the affair
as joke, suggested drink.
Excuse me-" said Clinch quietly, "but ez
this house amt big enough for M and that
man, and sz I've got business at Wild Cat
Station with this paper, think III 60 with
out drinkin'." He took the Keys from his
pocket, unlocked the doors. and taking up his
overcoat and rife turned a. II to 60.
Rawlins ross to follow him; Hale alone
esitated The rapid occurrences Of the last
an hour gave him no time for reflection.
3ut he was by no means satisfied Of the le-
sality Of the last act he had aided and abetted
Though he admitted its rude Justice, and
cit he would have done so again. A fear Of
his, and an instinct that he might be led into
,urther complications If he continued to iden-
Gify himself with Clinch and Rawlins; the fact
chat they had professedly abandoned their
quest. and that it was really supplanted by
the presence Of an authorized party whom
they had already come in conflict with-all
this urged him to remain behind. On the
other hand, the apparent desertion of his
comrades at the last moment was opposed
both to his sense Of honor and the liking he
had taken to them. But he reflected that he
had already shown his active partisanship,
that he could be Of little service to them at
Wild Cat Station, and would be only increas-
ing the distance from his home; and above
all, an impatient longing for independent
action finally decided him. u think ! will
stay here" he said to Clinch, sunless you
want me-"
Clinch cast swift and meaning glance at
the enemy, but looked approval keep
your eyes skinned, and you're good for a
dozen Of 'eni, he said, soto voce, and then
turned to Stanner. "Tm going to take this
paper to Wild Cat. If you want to commu-
nicate with me hereafter you know where I
am to be found, unless"-he smiled grimly-
"you'd like to see me outside for few min
utes before ! gof

"That's the point what I start FROM" re
joined Stanner, "and work UP. leave it t.
you ef it amt So"
u can't say ex agree with you" said the
colonel dryly. He turned, and still without
lifting his eyes walked toward the door OF
the room which Zenobia had entered. The
key was on the inside, but Clinch gentl,
opened the door, removed the key, and clos
ing the door again locked it from his side.
Hale and Rawlins felt their hearts beat
quickly; the others followed Clinch's slow
movements and downcast inien with amused
curiosity. After locking the other outlet
from the room and putting the keys in his
pocket, Clinch returned to the fire. For the
first time he lifted his eyes; the man nearest
him shrank back in terror.
II am the man, y he said slowly, taking de
liberate breath between his sentences, "who
gave up those greenbacks to the robbers. /
am one of the three passengers you have
lampooned in that paper, and these gentle
men beside me are the other two" He stop
ped and looked around him. "You don't be-
lieve that three men can back down ski
Well, I'll show you how it can be done.
More than that, I'll show you how one man
can do it; for, by the living God. If you
don't hand over that paper I'll kill You where
you sitl I'll give you until count ten; if
one of you moves he and you are dead men
but you frst~
Before he had finished speaking Hale and
Rawlins had both risen, as If in concert, with
their weapons drawn. Hale could not tell
how or why he had done so, but he was
equally conscious, without knowing why, Of
fixing his eye ON one of the other party, and
that he should, in the event Of an affray, try
to kill him. He did not attempt to reason;
he only knew that he should do his best to
kill that maa and perhaps Others

not daring to glance for aid to his stupefied
party.

and threw 1t on the floor.

Stanner hastily scrambled to his feet, picked
up the paper, and handed it to the colonel.

forced laugh.
"Tm glad to hear it. But as this joke is in

at h q matter that concerns the stage
company, not me, said Stanner, with an at
tempt TO appear at his ease.
Hals accompanied Clinch and Rawlins
through the kitchen to the stables. Tho ost-
Ter, Dick, had already returned to the rescue
Of the snow bound coach.
Il shouldnN Nike 70 leave many men alone
with that crowd" said Clinch, pressing Hale's
hand; "and I wouldn't have allowed your
staying behind of didn't know could bet
my pile On you. Your offerin' to stay just
puts clean finish ON It. Look yer, Hale,
didn't cotton much to you at first; but eff you
ever want friend, call on Ringwood Clinch. I"
'Ths same here, old man." said Rawlins,
extending his hand q he appeared from q
hurried conference with the old woman at
the woodshed, -and trust 10 zeenie to give
you . hint ef there's anythin' undsrhanded
goin' on. So long"
Half inclined TO resent this implied sugges-
ton Of protection, yet half pleased ut the idea
Of Q confidence with the handsome girl he
had seen, Hale returned to the room. A
whispered discussion among the party ceased
on his entering, and an awkward silence fol-
lowed, which Hale did not attempt to break
as he quietly took his seat again by the fire.
He was presently confronted by Stanner,
Who with an affectation of easy familiarity
.rossed over to the hearth.
"The old kernels id peppery and high
toned when he's got q little more than his
regular three fingers o corn juice, ehi"
II must beg you to understand distinctly,
Mr.. Stanner," said Hale, with a return of
his habitual precision Of statement, "that I
regard any slighting allusion to the gentle
man who has Just left not only as in exceed
ingly bad taste coming from you, but very
offensive to myself. II you mean to imply
that he was under the influence Of liquor, it
is my duty to undeceive you; he was 50 per-
fectly in possession of his faculties as to ex-
press not only his own but my opinion Of
your conduct. You must also admit that he
was discriminating enough to show his OBJ
lection to your company BY leavingit. Ire
gret that circumstances do not make 1t con-
venient for me to exercise that privilege;
but il l am obliged to put up with your
presence in this room, strongly insist that
1t is not made uncomfortable with the addition
Of your conversation"
The effect Of this deliberate and passion
less declaration was more discomposing to
the party than Clinchs fury. Utterly unac-
customed to the ideas and language suddenly
confronting them, they were unable to deter
mine whether 1t was the real expression Of
tho speaker, or whether 1t was vague badi-
mage q affectation to which any reply would

CHAPTER vi.

The laughter that followed was interrupted
by a sudden barking Of the dogs in the outer
clearing. Zenobia rose lazily and strobe to
the window. 1t relieved Hale OF certain
embarrassing reflections suggested by her
comment.
GIf IL amt that God d-forsaken fool Dick
bringing up passengers from the snow bound

suthin' to say to that" But the later appear.
anoe Of the apologetic Dick, with the assur-
auce that the party carried permission from
her father, granted at the lower station In
view of such an emergency, checked her ac-
tive opposition @That's like paw, she sohio
uuixed aggrievedly; "shuttin' US up and SET
Gin, the dogs on everybody for q week, and
then letting the whole stage service pass
through one door and out at another. Well,
It's his house and his whisky, and they kin
take ID, but they don't get me to help EN-"
They certainly were not q progressing or
good natured acquisition 30 the party. Apart
from the natural antagonism which, on such
occasions, those In possession always feel
toward the new conner, they were strongly
inclined to resist the dissatisfied querulous-
ness and aggressive attitude Of these fresh
applicants for hospitality. The most offensive
one was person who appeared to exercise
some authority over the others. He was loud,
assuming and dressed with vulgar prcten-
sion. He quickly disposed himself in the
chair vacated by Zenobia, and called for
some liquor.
II reckon you'll hev 10 help yourself, said
Rawlins dryly, as the summons mst with no
response. "There are only two women In
the house, and reckon their hands are full
already"
~ call it d-d uncivl treatment" said
the man, raising bis voice; "and Hennicker
had better sing smaller if he don't want his
old den pulled down some day. He amt any
better than men that hev been picked up
afore now"
"You oughter told him that, and mebbe
he'd hev come over with YER" returned Raw
Inns. aHe's mild, soft, easy going man, Is
Hennicker! Amt he, Col ClinchT
The casual mention of Clinch's name pro-
duced the effect which the speaker probably
intended. The stranger stared at Chnch,
who, apparently oblivious of the converse
tion, was blinking his cold, gray eyes at the
fire. Dropping his aggressive tone to mere
querulousness, the man sought the whisky
demijohn, and helped himself and his COM
panions. Fortified by liquor he returned to
the fire.
"I reckon you've heard about this yer rob-
berry. colonel" he said, addressing Clinch,
