Honolulu was a bird OF passage,
strongly domiciled in an alien land.
A wild goose of superior endurance
and flying power, It had landed down
In the poultry yard among other more
civilized fellows about q year previ-
Gus. There was Jagged wound in its
neck and as Jared came to examine
this, he found Embedded within 1t the
broken off stone head of an arrow.
It was by pure accident that this
arrow had played an important part
In the fortunes of Jared. He CHANGED
to relate the incident to college pro-
lessor, whose fad was archaeology and
kindred sciences. The professor took
an interest In the circumstance. The
arrow head was one identified as used
by an obscure tribe in the Sandwich
Islands. It was apparent, therefore,
that Honolulu had winged q memoir
able flight over land and sea thou
sands of miles, to domesticate itself
In an humble poultry yard in strange
land. The incident of the long flight
CT the fowl was published In several
scientific journals. the name OF Jared
was duly used, and he was pulled up
greatly when made member OF the
National Ornithological society.
That was not all. AS he became
familiar with Honolulu and got to
studying the fowl. he discovered that
the intelligent bird was q natural
weather glass. That "Honk! Honk!"

able. In time Jared could translate
the circumscribed goose dialect to 9
point where the changes In the baro-
meter were vocally announced and
rain, wind or murkiness predicted two
days ii advance with unerring accur-
acy, and Jared Dunn took due credit
to himself for his invincible weather
prognostications. never mentioning
Honolulu as the source OF his erudite
efficiency.
Jared Dunn had q nephew, his only
living relative, estranged tor some
time. He was Harvey Bross and was

 Well, we can settle what Rays concerned in. right now" replied Longstreth rising. "Come on; we'll ask her. See where you stand"
 They went out leaving the door open. Duane dropped down to rest himself and to wait.
 The men seemed to be absent good while, though that feeling might have been oeeasioned by Duanes thrilling interest and anxiety. Finally he heard heavy steps. Lawson came in alone. He was leaden-faced, humili ated. Then something abject in him gave place to rage. He strode the room; he cursed. Then Longstreth returned, now appreciably ealmer. felt relief at the evident rejection of Lawson's proposal.
 Don't fuss about it, Floyd" he said. You see I can't help it. We're pretty wild out here but I can't rope my daughter and give her to you as l would an unruly steer"

 Tt isn't likely I'd forget" replied Longstreth, grimly.
 'I can go to Ray, tell her that, make her believe I'd tell it broadcast-tell this ranger-unless she'd marry me-
 Lawson spoke hreathlessly. with haggard face and shadowed eyes. He had no shame. He was simply in the grip of passion.
 Longstreth gazed with dark, con trolled fury at this relative. In that look Duane saw strong, unscrupu- lous man fallen into evil ways, but still man. It betrayed Lawson to be the wild and passionate weakling. Like the great majority of evil and unrestrained men on the border, he had reached point where influence was futile. Reason had degenerated. He saw only himself.
 But, Floyd, Rays the one person on earth who must never know I'm a rustler, thief. red-handed ruler of the worst gang of robbers" replied Longstreth, impressively.
 Floyd bowed his head at that as if the significance had just occurred to him. But he was not long at loss.

When he got there the crack he had marked was q foot over his head There was nothing to do but find toe-holds in the crumbling walls, and by bracing knees on one side, back against the other, hold himself up. Once with his eye there he did not care what risk he ran. Longstrtth appeared dis turbed; he sat stroking his mustache: his brow was clouded. Lawson's face seemed darker, more sullen, yet light ed by some indonitable resolve.
 "We1l settle both deals tonight" Lawson was saying. That s what came for"
 But suppose I don't choose to talk here" protested Longstreth, impa- tiently.
