Then the incident passed out of
Adrian's Mind, Just as the White Axe
episode had done. He had other
more pressing thoughts. He had
come to the district on business for
his company and had met his fate
In the form of Althea Discoll, daugh-

Adrian had been treated as quite
social lion at Chapelle. 1t was
crude border town, but lumber and
ore had brought in riches and the
people were progressive. There was
one other than Althea Driscoll who
had attracted him somewhat. This
was a Miss Violet Walton. She was
a new arrival in the district, seemed
to have a fortune and claimed to be
the daughter of a deceased mining
king.
Miss Walton was a flashy dark
beauty, almost swarthy, but this re.
deemed by the deep searching sparkle
Of her eyes and regular attractive fea.
