by this grateful coolnecs, his horse
responded willingly to the first light

behind the rounded shoulder Of a hill

Then from its first spirited flight

Alan's departure from camp had an

appearance on the upper trail OF

number OF four or FIVE, who had both
discovered and recovered his body,
called his death murder and pledged
themselves to it's avengement-laying

breakfast and that which found Rose
and Barcus mounted on the back OF
their own horse and making the best

elapsed.
And even with its double burden,
their horse made better time upon
the broad lower level than those who
followed the ridge trail. By mid'morn'

pursuit was more than mile in the

Burnt Fingers.

Burnt Fingers.
Once she had lost touch with her Ia
theirs creatures, the girl drew rein
and went on more slowly and eau
tious1y.
Below her, in the valley, the lower
trail wound its faclle way. From time
to time she could discern upon some
naked stretch of its length q cloud OF
dust, or perhaps three mounted ag-
ures, scurrying madly on with fear Of
death swapping at their heels.
It was within an hour of midnight,
a night bell-clear and bitter cold on
tho heights, and bright with moon
light, when Alan's party made it's last
pause and camped to rest. against the
dawn, unconscious Of the fact that, a
quarter OF a mile above them, on the
upper trail, lonely woman paused
when they paused and made her own
camp on the edge Of a sharp declivlty.
The level shafts Of the rising sun
awakened her. She sat up, rubbed her
eyes, yawned, stretched limbs stih
with the hardship Of sleeping ON un-
yielding, sun-baked earth-and OF a
sudden started up, surprised by the
grating of footsteps on the earth be-
hind her. M-l.
Before she could turn, however, she
was caught and wrapped in the arms
Of Hopi Jim.
She mustered all her strength and
wits and will for one last struggle
and In a frenzied moment managed to
break his hold tribe, enough to en-
able her to snatch at the pistol hang
Ing from her belt and present 1t at his
head. :ei

age wrenchings that the pistol dropped
from fingers numbed with pain.
And now all hint Of mercy left his
eyes; remained only the glare of rage.
He put forth all his strength in turn,
and Judith was as child in his hands.
In half4a minute he had her helpless,
in as much time more her back was
breaking across his knee, while he
bound her with loop after loop of his
rawhide lariat.
Then, leaving ner momentarlly
supine on the ground, Hopi Jim caught
and unhobbled her horse, and without
troubling to saddle 1t, lifted the girl
to its back, and placed her there, face
upward catching her hands and feet,
as they fell on either flank of the AMI
NAL, with more loops of that unbreak-
able rawhide, and deftly placing the
master knot of the hitch that bound
this human pack well beyond posi-
bility of her reach.
She painted a prayer for mercy. He
laughed in her face, bent and kissed
her brutally, and stepped back laugh

Thus he stood for an instant be-
tween the horse and the edge Of the
declivity. fair mark, stark against
the sky, for one who stood in the val
ley below, holding his rife with eager
fingers, waiting for just such oppor-
tunity with the same impotence with
which he had waited for it ever since
the noise OF debris kicked over the
edge by the struggling man and
woman had drawn his attention to
what was going on above.
Alan pressed the trigger and the
shot sounded clear in the morning
stiffness, Judith saw look Of ag-
grieved amazemept cross the face Of
Hopi Jim slade.
Then he threw his hands out, clawed
blindly at the air, staggered, reeled
against the horses flank SO heavily
that it SHE'D in fright. and abruptly
shot from sight over the edge of the
bluff.

injury that had been done her father;

she was never far from his side.

descent by the outstanding trunk of a

The miniature landslide that had
been caused by his fall went on,
settling gradually as the slope be-
came less sheer. Only part of 1t, a
double handful Of pebbles, gained the
bottom Of the canyon.
It's mufied impact on the ground
round his feet reused the man who
had comprised tho bandits death from
the pose he had unconsciously as
sumed on the instant of firing,
He stepped back, and snatched up
a case containing binoculars.
Not before the glasses were adjusted
to his vision did he fnd time to re.
spond ahsently to the alarmed and In
sistent Inquiries Of his two compan'
ions, man Of his own age and girl
of some years less, who had been
Weakened from their sleep by the re.
port of the rife.
Now the latter pIucked his sleeve,
momentarily DETECTING the glasses
from the object which they were fol-
lowing so sedulously as 1t moved
along the heights; wildly running
horse with a woman bound helpless
upon It's back. both sharply in sill
houette against the burning blue.
"Alan!" the girl demanded, "what
is it? Why did you fire? Why won't
you answer me? What is IT,"
Judith" Alan replied tersely. again
picking up with the glasses the run
away horse that fled so madly along
the perilous and narrow track of the
hill trail.
The name was echoed from two
threats as Alan swung sharply and
thrust the glasses into the hands OF
the girl.
Judith" he affirmed with look Of
poignant solicltude. "She's roped to
the back OF that crazy broncho-hep-
less! See for yourself; one false step
suppose a stone turns beneath its
hoof-she'll be killed."
While the girl focused her glasses
upon that speck that flew against the
sky Alan turned to the two horses
hobbled near by and Selling saddle
threw 1t over the back of one.
At this the other man turned to his
side and dropping a OBTAINING hand
upon his arm asked:
What are you going to do?"
Alan shook the hand OF and went
