PROLOGUE.

Red Butte Western, the most
hopelessly demoralised railroad
west of the Rockies, a road that
is a Joke and tragedy; as des-
perate a lot Of outlaws as ever
ran trains or ditched them; a
railroad superintendent who says
he is coward and then tackles
one of the toughest tasks rail
road man ever had to solve; a
fond lover and a beautiful girl;
wrecks, fhefts, gun plays and
highwa ymen-oU these stand out
pipidIy in one Of the most thrill
ing stories Of railroad life ever
written, a story of the Red desert,
where chaos takes the place Of
order and where the large cali
bered revolver is the law.

Richeson. 1t Ia the most graphic &C
count yet related OF the plans made
by Miss Iinneil for her marriage with
the minister. She repeated state
ments from Avis Iinnell as to the day
set for the marriage. She told OF
doilies and table linen the girl had
collected as treasures that were to
be enjoyed only after she became Mrs.
Richeson.
Great Love For Minister.
THE welding was originally liked for
tho fan Of 1910. and Avis chose her
bridesmaids from the girls that She
had known at the State Normal School
In Hyannis," said Miss Collins. "The
girls that she picked were Beulah Nc
Carter, of Harwichporf. Ellen Armsby
and Helen Crosby. of Hyannis and
myself. Helen Linnell. her sister. was
to be maid of honor
Avis told me that she fairly wor-
SHIPPED the ground the minister trod
on" continued Miss Collins. only she
said: He is the first man ] had loved,
and he will be the only one. If any
thing happened TO him l feel that ]
should die
Avis declared that the minister
loved her. but that he was unwilling
to fix definite day for the ceremony
because ire feared that the exact date
could not be determined In advance.
At the request of Avis. We prepared
our gowns. / even went so far as to
go TO Boston, and be fitted for the
dress l intended to wear.
After there was nothing Of q definite
nature heard in regard to the wedding
about the time Ii was supposed to
take place, we inquired Of Avis as
TO the cause of the delay.
'Her only reply was: You girls wait
till l tell you. and then we win have
II jolly time
From time to time we kept In touch
with Avis and only last summer she
told us to get our dresses in readiness,
als she expected to be married In Oc-
tober."
