bers of the association and business
men of the city who have contributed
toward its support were present at the
banquet. The Monte Vista Hog
Growers Association was incorporated
upon the suggestion of DR.. George II.
Glover. state veterinarian. for the pur-
pose OF making united effort to
stamp out hog cholera in this section
of the state. This was the first really
organized effort ever made in the
United States toward the elimination
OF this disease. A veterinarian was
employed and under his direction the
hog raisers cleaned up and disinfected
all places where the cholera appeared
and strict quarantine has been en-
forced. So successful have been these
efforts that. while in 1912 the losses
from cholera amounted to nearly SO
per cent OF all herds. with a monetary
loss of at least $4,000. the loss for
1913 has been less than $50 hogs, and
the greater part OF these has been
among hogs shipped into the valley
from outside the state. While the ban.
quet this year was confined to men,
bers of the association. It is expected
that arrangements will be made to
make the hog roast" an annual event.

CHAPTER TX.
At Silver Switch.

Like that of other railroad Of
ficials whose duties eonstrain
them to spend much time in tran
sit, Lidgerwoods desk-work went
with him up and down on the
two divisions, and before leaving
his office in the Crows Nest to go
down to the waiting special, he
had thrust a bunch of letters and
papers into his pocket.
IL was his surreptitious trans
ference of the letters to the closed
service-car desk, observed by
Miss Brewster, that gave the
presidents daughter an opportu-
nifty to make partial amends for
having turned his business trip
into a car-party.
Listen a moment, all of you, "
she called. I'VE mustn't forget
that this isn't a planned excursion
Mr.. Lidgerwood. We must make
ourselves small, accordingly, and
not bother him.
And SO for an industrious hour
Lidgerwood scarcely realized he
was not alone. For the greater
part of the interval the sight
seers we're out on the rear plat

stories of the Red Desert. She
was in the midst of one of the

'Ow GO ON WITH THE STORY
Continued from Yesterday


A crawling minute later Judson
was crouehing beneath the loose
ly iointed floor of the lighted
e room. Almost at once he was able
to verify his guess that there
were only two men in the room
above. At all events, there were
only two speakers. They were
talking in low tones, and Judson
had no difficulty in identifying
the rather high-pitched voice of
the owner of the WRESTLER
mine. The man whose profile he
-had seen on the window shade had
the voice which belonged to the
outlined features, but the listen
or under the floor had a vague
impression that he was trying to
disguise 1t.
The bell of the private line tel
ephone rang in the room above. 1t
was Flemister who answered the
bell-ringer.
Hello! Yes; this is Flemister.
What's that?--a message about
Mr.. Lidgerwood? All
right; fire away"
who is it?" came the inquiry
In the grating voice which fitted,
and yet did not fit the man whom
Judson had followed from his
boarding of the train at Angels
to Silver Switch.
Its Goodloe, talking from his
station office at Little Butte" re-
piled the mine owner. THE dis
patcher has Just called him up to
say that Bidgerwood left Angels
in his service car, running special,
at eight-forty, which would fig
ure Il here at about eleven, or a
little later"
Look here" said the man Jud-
son believed to be Hsllock. Your
plan is needlessly bloody. In the
ordinary run OF things, IL will be
only a few days or weeks before
Lidgerwood win throw up his
) hands and quit, and when he goes
out, I go in"
There was a pause and Judson
shifted his weight cautiously from
one elbow to the other. Then
Flemister began, without heat
and equally without compunction.
you say ii is unnecessary;
that Lidgerwood will be pushed
6 out by the labor fight. Ny an
swer to that is that you don't
know him quite as well as you
think you do. If he's allowed to
live, he'll stay-unless somebody
takes him unawares and scares
him off, as l meant to do tonight
when I wired you. II he continues
to live, and stay, you know what
win happen, sooner or later. Hell
find you out for the double-faced
cur that you are-and after that,

At this the other voice took its
turn at the savage sneering.
