Then Duane knew for sure that he was
no knight Of the road, but a plain. cut
throat robber. Danger always made,
Duane exult in a kind of cold glow. But
now something hot worked within him.
He hael a little gun in his pocked. The
robber had missed it. And he began to
calculate chances.

Don't dare touch mel" she cried, her
eyes ablaze. She did not move; she had,
nerve.
1t made Duane thrill. He saw he was
going to- get a chance. Waiting had,
been a science with him. But here 1T
was hard. Miss Ruth a tainted, and
that was we'll. Miss Longstreth had
fight in her. which fact helped Duane,
yet made injury possible to her. She
eludcd two lunges the man made at
her. Then his rough hand caught her
waist. and with one pull ripped it asun-
der, exposing her beautiful shoulder,
NIlllc DIS SHOW.
She cried out. The prospect of being;
robbed or even killed had not shaken
Miss Longstreth's nerve as had this,
brutal tearing off of half her waist.
The ruffian was only turned partially
away from Duane. For himself he could,
AVE waited no longer. But for her!!
That gun was still held dangerously
upward close to her. Duane watched,
only that. Then a below made him,
jerk his head. Colonel Longstreth stood;
in the doorway in a magnificent rage
He had no weapon. Strange how he
showed no fear! He beloved sone-
thing again.
Duane's shifting glance aught the
robbers sudden movement. 1t was a
kind of start. He seemed stricken. Du-
ane expected him to shoot Longstreth.
Instead, the hand that ciutched Miss
Longstreth's torn waist loosened it's
hold. The other hand with it's cooked
weapon slowly dropped till it pointed to-
the floor. That was Duane's chance.
Swift as a flash he drew his gun and
fired. Thud! went his bullet, and he
could not tell on the instant whether it
hit the robber or went into the ceiling.
Then the robbers gun doomed harm
lessly. He fell with blood squirting over
his face. Duane realized he had hit
him, but the small bullet had glanced.

uat two lays ride from Bradford
toward the north. There was a stage
which made the journey twice a week.
Next morning Duane mounted his
horse and headed for Fairdale. He rode
l~easurely, as he wanted to learn all he
could about the country. There were
few ranches. The farther he traveled
the better grazing he encountered, and.
strange to note, the fewer herds of
cattle.
1t was just sunset when he made out
a cluster of adobe houses that marked
the halfway point between Bradford
and Fairdale. Here. Duane had learned,
was stationed a comfortable inn for
wayfarers.
When he drew up before the inn the
landlord and his family and a number
OF loungers greeted him laconically.

 Cloud That Hangs Over 1t.
Little Rock.

Little Rock
 The court handed down a decision in the long drawn out Hampstead county seat case, deciding in favor of Washington and against Hope. The town of Hope won in the lower courts
 The Supreme Court held that pre- sumption of correctness and regular ity of prima facie returns from De- roan Township was overcome by evi- dence introduced on behalf of the con testants, showing that 845 more votes were cast in the special election than were shown on the official lists of the poll tax payers of the county; that there was testimony also of illegal voting permitted by election judges in Deroan Township. and cnat this testi- mony, taken together, was sufficient to overcome the prima facie returns and to shift the burden to Hope of showing that these returns were in fact correct
 The court further held that there was no testimony on behalf of Hope explaining how the disparity between the official lists of poll tax payers ane the prima facie returns occurred.
 The case was remanded for a new trial, and under authority of the case of Bowen against Lovewell the appel lees are given the authority, if they can, to purge the returns from De. roan Township and lift the cloud that now hangs over it. If the evidence continues the same the county seat will remain at Washington.
