Dicksie with her pulses throbbing at
fever-heat heard the words. She
stood halfway down the stairs. trem-
bling as she listened. Anger, hatred,
the spirit Of vengeance, choked in her
throat at the sinister words. She
longed to stride into the room and
confront the murderer and call down
retribution on his head. 1t was no
fear of him that restrained her, for
the Crawling Stone girl never knew
fear. She would have confronted him
and denounced him, but produence
checked her angry impulse. She knew
what he meant to do-to ride into
Medicine Bend under cover of the
storm, murder the two he hated, and
escape in the night; and she resolved
he should never succeed. If she could
only get to the telephone! But the
telephone was in the room where he
sat. He was saying good.by. Her
cousin was trying to dissuade him from
riding out into the storm, but he was
going. The door opened; the men
went out on the porch, and it closed.
Dicksie, lightly as shadow, ran into
the Office and began ringing Medicine
Bend on the telephone.

While the Johnsons were laughing,
Smith walked into the Blackbird. He
had lost 30 minutes, and In losing
them had lost his quarry. Sinclair
had disappeared. and Whispering
Smith made virtue of necessity by
taking the upsetting of his plans with
an unrufiied face. There was but one
thing more, indeed. to do, and that
was to eat his supper and ride away.
The street encounter had made so
much talk In Oroville that Smith de-
clined Gene Johnson's invitation to go
back to the house. 1t seemed a con-
venient time to let any other ambi-
tious rustlers make good If they were
disposed to try and Whispering Smith
went for his supper to the hotel where
the Williams Cache men made their
headquarters.
When he rode away in the dusk his
face was careworn. John Rebstock
had told him why Sinclair lodged; !;
there were others whom Sinclair
wanted to meet first; and Whispering
Smith was again heading on long,
hard ride, and after a man on a better
horse, back to the Crawling Stone and
Medicine Bend. There's others he
wants to see first or you'd have no
trouble In talking business to-day.
You nor no other man will ever get
him alive" But Whispering Smith
knew that.
See that he doesn't get you alive,
Rebstock," was his parting retort. IF
he finds out Kennedy has got the
Tower W money, the first thing he
does will be to put the Doxology all
over you"

At the Door.

She woke in a dream of hoofs beat
ing at her brain. Distracted words
fell from her lips, and when she
opened her swollen eyes and saw those
about her she could only scream.
Marion had called up the stable, but
the stablemen could only tell her that
Dicksie's horse, in terrible condition,
had come in riderless. While Barn.
hardt, the railway surgeon, at the
bedside administered restoratives,
Marion talked with him of Dicksie's
sudden and mysterious coming. Dick
sic, lying in pain and quite conscious,
heard all, but, unable to explain,
moaned in her helplessness. She
heard Marion at length tell the doctor
that McCloud was out of town, and
the news seemed to bring back her
senses. Then, rising in the bed, while
the surgeon and Marion coaxed her
to lie down, she clutched at their arms
and, looking from one to the other,
told her story. When 1t was done
she swooned, but she woke to hear
voices at the door of the shop. She
heard as If she dreamed, but at the
door the words were dread reality.
Sinclair had made good his word, and
had come out of the storm with a sum-
mons upon Marion and it was the sur
geon who threw open the door and
saw Sinclair standing in the snow.
