he was an habitual coffee drinker, and,
although he knew it was doing him

till all at once he went to pieces with

and kept him on a couch at homo

CHAPTER xxxlII.
Following the Trail.

The withdrawal of the sheriff mere
~ stimulated Keith to greater activity.
1t was clearly evident the fugitives
were endeavoring with all rapidity
possible to get beyond where the hand
OF law could reach them-their trail
striking directly across the plains into
the barren southwest was proof of this
purpose. Yet 1t was scarcely likely
they would proceed very far In that
direction, as such course would
bring them straight into the heart of
the Indian country, into greater dan
ger than that from which they fled.
Keith felt no doubt that -Hawley in
tended making for Carson City, where
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 a 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
Waite's appeal to the courts have
reached the gambler, frightened him,
and caused him to attempt this des-
perate 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
been missed. or, at least. seriously
sought after, until she failed to ap-
pear at the theater the following even.
ing This delay would give the fu-
gitives a 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 Maclatre with
him. But there was no apparent oc-
casion for his forcible abduction Of
Hope. OF course, he might have done
SO from suddenly aroused fit of an
ger at some discovery the girl had
made. yet everything pointed rather
to a deliberate plan. Both horses and
men were certainly waiting there un-
der orders, Hawley's adherents in
charge, and every arrangement per
fected In advance. Clearly enough
the gambler had planned 1t all out
before he ever went to the Troca-
dero-no doubt the completion of
these anal arrangements was what de-
layed his appearance At the hotel. II
this was all true. then 1t must have
beon Christie. and not Hope, he pur-
posed bearing away with him. and the
latter was merely a victim OF her mas
Qusrads.
What would result when the man
discovered his mistake? Such q dis
covsry could not be delayed long, a.
though the girl was Quick-witted. and
would surely realize that her personal
safety depended upon keeping up the
deception to the last possible moment

the southwest, the pony tracks cutting
into the sod as though the reckless

horses trotting rapidly. Evidently no
attempt had been made at conceal
ment, and this served to convince the
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
