a stern chase and long one. and it
was impossible to tell when they could

Yet tho discovery must finally occur.
and there was no guessing what form
Hawley's rage would assume when he
found himself bafned, and all his
plans for a fortune overturned. Keith
fully realized Hopes peril. and his

emergency was agony. As they hur'

viewed these conclusions with Waite
and Fairbain, all alike agreeing there
was nothing remaining for them TO do
except TO take up the trail The fugi-

advantage to be overhauled, but they
might be traced to whatever point

was firmly convinced that their destin-

riders had punched together, their
horses trotting rapidly. Evidently 70

pursuers that Hawley still believed
his captive to be Miss Maclaire. and
that her Disappearance would not be
suspected until after nightfall In
that case the trail could not be dis
covered before the following morn
ing. and with such a start, pursuit
would be useless. Tireless, steadily,
scarcely speaking except upon the
business in hand, the pursuers pressed

FOLLOWING the Trail,

The withdrawal of the sheriff mere

Keith felt no doubt that Hawley in

he could securely hide the girl, and
where he possessed friends to rally
to his defence, even an influence over
the officers Of the law. The one thing
which puzzled him most was the
mans object in attempting so desper-
ate venture. Did he know his pris-
oner was Hope Waite? or did he still
suppose he was running of with Chris
tie Maclaire? Could some rumor OF
Naites appeal to the courts have
reached the gambler, frightened him,
and caused him TO attempt this des-
ptrate effort at escape? and did he
bear Miss Maclaire with him. hoping
to keep her safely concealed until
he was better prepared to come out in
open fight? If this was the actual
state OF affairs then It would account
for much otherwise hard to explain
The actress would probably not have

gltives start of twenty hours or
even more, and practically assure
their safety Besides, In the light OF
Waite's application to the sheriff for
assistance, it was comparatively easy
to conceive of valid reason why
Hawley should vanish, and desire,
likewise, to take Miss Maclaire with
him, But there was no apparent oC-
casion for his forcible abduction of
Hope, OF course, he might have done
so from a suddenly aroused At of an

made, yet everything pointed rather
TO deliberate plan. Both horses and

new life.
