all the way as they scudded with the
wind. But Louise held the little tin
kettle firmly.
Men knew of Richard Gordon that
night that he was marked man. The
secret workings of secret clan had
him on their prescription list. Some
one had at last found this unwearied
and doggedly persistent young fellow
in the way. In the way, he was a
menace, a danger He must be re-
moved from out the way. He could
not be bought from it-he should be
warned from il. So now his home
his work room and his rest room, the
first by many hours daily the more in
use, with all its furnishings of bache-
Tor plainness and utility, that yet had
held a curious charm for some men,
friends and cronies like Langford-
was burning that he might be warned.
Could any one say, Jesse Black has
done this thing?" Would he not bring
down proof of guilt by retaliation
struck too soon? 1t would seem as if
he were anticipating an unfavorable
verdict. So men reasoned. And even
then they did not arise to stamp out
the evil that had endured and Rugged
itself and spit out corruption in the
cattle country. That was reserved for
another.
They talked of match thrown
down at the courthouse by tramp,
likely-when it was past midnight,
when the fire broke out with the wind
a piercing gale, and when no vagrant
but had long since left such cold COM
fort and had slept these many weeks
in SUMMER climes. Some argued that
the windows of the courtroom might
have been left open and the stove
blown down by the. wind tearing
through, or the stove door might have
blown open and remains of the fire
been blown out, or the pipe might
have fallen down. But it was a little
odd that the same people said Dick
Gordon's Office likely caught fire from
flying sparks. Dicks office was two
blocks to westward of the courthouse
and it would have been brave spark
and lively one that could have made
Roadway against that Northwestern.

a whimsical surprise as if he had not

swirling so thickly through the cold
air that vision was DISTRACTED. Build

white veil. The thermometer had gone
many degrees below the zero mark. 1t

break the record the coming night.
An immense fire had been built in
the sitting-room. Thither Mary and
