 Bnrs sharp eyes followed the ges- .ture. Spike at that moment was iUst leaving Rhinelandcr. Helen and Storm. Bill. knave of more than ordinary discernment and one who hated Spike for his share in the fight at Las Vegas, saw in the incident his chance to get even. He put the check aside and a moment later when Spike appeared at the pay car, Bill was ready. Descending the car steps. Bill called to Spike as the latter came forward. Bill advanced to meet him. What do you mean, Spike" demanded Bill in loud and aggressive tones, pitched so that everybody might hear. "sy running over to Rhinelanders camp all the time? What are you up to now, Spike?"
 Spike was in the worst possible mood to be badgered by anybody. With a hot eypletive he bade Bill mind his own business, and offered gratuitously to break his head.
 Bill turned to the men with shout: s. ;- hn En or;nI hot helped Rhinelander steal our right of way. boys. He's the guy that's thrown us ali out of work. What do you know about that?"
 Spike, in most opprobrious Ian guage, flatly gave Bill the lie. The men, most of whom were spelling for a row, closed in to hear and devour the heated argument that the two enc mics engaged in. Accusations and de nials fell thick and fast: abuse fol lowed assertions; hard words and a deep-seated enmity raised the tempers of both men, and Bill, without further warning, swung and sent Spike with a terrific left-hander to the ground.
 Spike was no sooner down than up. He came back at Bill goaded to fury by the unprovoked attack. Men crowd ed up.

NINTH lNSTbLLMENT
CLOSE CALL

Despite Seacrae's persistent Opposf tion, Rhinelander secured the righ; of way to enable him to complete the Superstition cutoff, and unable to stop the Tidewater construction work Seagrue resolved to try other methods to defeat his rival.
 Helen Holmes was enjoying the taste of camp life that her trip to the front had brought. And after the ex- citement had died down attending tho destruction of Cassidy's house. she found herself amused and interested in Cassidy himself, who was busy next morning trying to restore mucb- battered stove to service near the wreck of his shack Helen watched his dazed efforts until sympathy over came her, and excusing herself, she walked over to where Cassidy was struggling to get a fire going.
 Seagrue, who had been watching the scene from a distance, saw Helen join the old fellow. and deemed it his opportunity to make tentative ad- vances toward the collective enemy. Sauntering over, accordingly, he joined Helen at a moment in which she sent Cassidy for water and was herself watching the fire starting in the stove.
 Helen looked up in astonishment when she heard Seagrue's greeting. Indeed, she resented his intrusion so strongly that she refused all commun- ication with him and for a time he spoke into deaf ears.
 You ought not to be too hard on me, Helen" he urged at length. Any mah will fight for his life against ruin. That's all I've done. Everything ] have in the world is tied up in this Superstition cutoff. But more than once I said to myself, would willing ly sacrifice it all to regain your friend ship"

 Spike. sauntering oyer, read the mo- tice. Seagrue's eye fell on him at that moment and recollection of what he termed Spikes treachery came to his mind. He spoke to the convict rough iy. T suppose you know that in help ing Rl.nelander get those contracts, you caused this trouble, Spike"
 Spike glanced at him with an angry shake of the head. "Rhinelardor didn't need me to get the contracts. Helen Holmes is the one that beat you. Seagrue"
 The remark did not help to socthe Seagrue's irritation. He kept after Spike all the harder If you cross me again." he said. threateningly. ''Tll hand you over to some high voltage, my friend"
 The wrangle was going from bad tC worse when Bill came in with Sea- grue's coat The latter. putting it on took his hat. directed Lug to post the bulletin, beckoned to the attorney and accompanied by him and Bill. started for the station to catch the main line local then due.

The least he could do. he felt, was to take this over to Rhineland- CTS camp and return it to her with such lame explanation as he could in- vent to cover the occasion.
 He found Helen alone. She regard cd him strangely as he approached. Spike would rather have faced sher- if than to face her on such an CT rand. He shufi1ed toward her i'll at ease and her silence did not help to allay his embarrassment.
 "I know you bought the clothes for me- he muttered, because I helped you get the contracts. I hated to turn back the way did to Seagrue's camp.

 Undismayed by the undertaking. Helen, followed by Rhinelander trying to stop her. hurried toward Seagrue' $ camp. Storm, with more forethought, hastily got together such of his men as were within hearing, and yelling in his turn to Helen to wait. started after her and Rhinelander. Fast as the men ran, none could overtake her fly ing feet. Sine dashed into the thick of the fight ahead of everybody and seizing Spike, pushed back his assail- ants.
 They stopped an instant from sheer amaZement at seeing lovely girl, seemingly fallen from the sky, in the middle Of a hot scrimmage.

I hate to bring these back to you. But the way I'm fixed l cant double cross Seagrue.'
 Helen saw he was greatly humiliat- cd. And she was mystifed little by his words. Spike" she said. kindly, the clothes are nothing. But what have I done to you that you should treat me in the way you did?"
 Spike shuffied on his feet and swung his head uneasily. Not a thing in the world" was all he could say.
 Why have you acted in this way?" she demanded q bought you a ticket to the city-you promised to go-why didn't you?"
 He labored in continued confusion to explain. He tried to tell her Sea- grue had done many things for him; he told her he owed Seagrue a lot of money and he had no hope of ever paying him back except by work. and that he didn't feel he ought to break away now.
 Storm and Rhinelander came up at that moment They greeted Spike. He avoided their eyes as much as pos sible and returned their greeting in a shame-faced way. Helen answered the surprise that overspread the faces of Storm and Rhinelander. It's no won der he's ashamed to speak to you" she said severely. You would hardly be- lieve it, I know; but the fact is he has turned over to Seagrue again
 The two men looked at Spike with undisguised contempt. Their attitud ' made him desperate. "Oh. l know what you think of me-" he said with a reckless swing of his head. T can't help it. | can't explain. It would take me from now till the middle of next week, if I tried-and then you'd think less Of me than you do now. Never be kind to me again. It's hopeless for me-but cant help it."
 The three watched him shuttle away. Rhinelander shook his head. There's a mystery somewhere in it. I can't make it out. Some day we'll know" '"
 Well, in any case. I certainly don't want these clothes" declared Helen locking at the bundle Spike had left in her hands. They're no use in the world to me- A laborer was passing. Here. you" she said to the man take this suit. If it fits you sne added. before the man could recover from his surprise. 'it's yours"

The Germans wasted enough shrap-

For twenty days Dawson remained
unconscious, his face swollen and black.
Surgeons aud nurses shook their heads
over him often but Dawson refused to
die. Finally, having persisted in his

removed to a hospital in Boulogne

What they saw prompted them to op.

WOODBURY. CLEARING HOUSE
HAD BIG DAY SATURDAY

The heaviest egg receipts in the
short time the clearing house has
been in operation were last Saturday
when nearly 800 dozen were received.
People of this vicinity are beginning
to realize the benefits Of this insti-
tuition, as not only hogs, veal eggs
and poultry have been offered in lib
eral quantities, but potatoes, beans
and onions have also been pre-.
sented.
At present the association has one
order for 250 sacks Of potatoes and
so sacks Of No. l onions and is en-.
deavoring to fill the same if the
growers will sell at the price offered
by the purchaser.
Egg Circle members are being reg
istered daily and it is hoped before
long that all egg producers of this en-
tire section win become members.
This is the only proper method Of sell
ing eggs as it pays the producer the
extra money for the quantity Of hi
eggs.
Some have asked the question as TO
what percentage Of eggs are Circle
eggs Circle eggs are eggs that will
weigh two ounces each. This, of
course, depends upon the king Of hens,
hut already some Circle members
have as high as IS per cent Of the
total, others only 80 per cent being
Circle eggs. But even then the extra
two cents per dozen makes consid.
erable difference in their returns.
There have been rumors that the
clearing house was not paying as
much as the stores but these rumors
are false and someone has been mis-.
Informed, as the merchants them
selves operate the clearing house and
il would be useless to operate unless
the prices were just as much as the
stores pay.
Anyone having other produce than
the times now being regularly pur
chased would do well TO talk witt
the manager and secure prices before
selling elsewhere. -Woodburn Indepen
