SYNOPSIS.

The time of the story: about 1876. The
place: The Texas COW country. The chief
character: Buckley Duane, a young man
who has inherited lust to kill, which he
suppresses. In self-defense he shoots dead
a drunken bully and is forced to flee to
the wild country where he joins Bland s
outlaw band Euchre, an amiable rascal,
tells him about Jennie, young girl who
aas been abducted and sold to Bland for
bad fate. They determine to rescue the
girl and restore her to civilization. Eu-
chre has just reconnoitered, and is re-
porting the outlook to Buck. Euchre is
killed. Buck kills Bland and is danger
ously wounded by Mrs. Bland, but es-
capes with Jennie. Jennie is abducted.
Buck never sees her again, but kills her
abductor. Duane barely escapes death at
the hands Of .lynchers for a crime he new
or committed: He goes to. see Captain
MacNelly- Of the Rangers, who hands him
a pardon on condition that he join the
Rangers and assist in breaking up the
outlaws Duane accepts and goes to the
outlaw headquarters on secret mission:
He meets Colonel Longstreth, mayor Of
Fairdale, and Miss Ray Longstreth and
her cousin, Ruth. Buck arrests robber
in Longstreth's home and announces that
he Is a Ranger. The colonel shows mark
ed enmity. The new Ranger secretly or
ganizes a vigilance committee.

you-will you be-" Her voice failed.
1t seemed to Duane that she must
have discovered what he had begun
to suspect-that her father and Law
son were not the honest ranchers
they pretended to be. Perhaps she
knew more! Her appeal to Duane
shook him deeply. He wanted to help
her more than he had ever wanted
anything. And with the meaning of
the tumultuous sweetness she stirred
in him there came the realization of
a dangerous situation.
II must be true to my duty" he
said, hoarsely.

brought the blood to her face.

won. The opening of that big basket
was an event. Poor, starved little
beggars! The havoc was wrought in
that household. The needs now were
cheerfulness, kindness, help, action
and these the girls furnished with a
spirit that did Duane good.
"Mrs. Laramie, who dressed this
baby?" presently asked Miss Long
streth. Duane peeped in to see a
dilapidated youngster on her knee.
That sight, if any other was needed,
completed the full and splendid es-
innate of Ray Longstreth and wrought
strangely upon his heart.
"The ranger" replied Mrs. Laramie.
''The ranger!" exclaimed Miss Long
streth.

"Oh! So you've had no help but
his" replied Miss Longstreth, hastily.
"No women. Too bad. I'll send
someone, Mrs. Laramie, and I'll come

the older woman. "You see, Jim aad

"That's awful" burst out Miss

her believe I'd tell it broadcast-tell
this ranger-unless she'd marry me-. -
Lawson spoke breathlessly, 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 a 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

except by some decided move. Ex-
citement, greed, appetite were rife IN
them. Duane marked, however, a
striking exception to the usual run

over the goings-on among the

with former conduct. This lull, how
ever, did not deceive Duane. It could
not last. The wonder was that ii

streth and Ruth ride up to the door
They carried a basket. Evidently
they had heard Of Mrs. Laramie's
trouble. Duane felt strangely glad
but he went into an adjoining room
rather than meet them.
"Mrs. Laramie, I've come to see

fully.
The little room was not very light
there being only one window and the
doors, but Duane could see plainly
enough. Mrs. Laramie lay, hollow.
checked and haggard, on a bed. Once
she had evidently been a woman of
some comeliness. The ravages of
trouble and grief were there to read
in her worn face; it had not, however,
any of the hard and bitter lines that
had characterized her husbands.
Duane wondered, considering that
Longstreth had ruined Laramie, how
Mrs. Laramie was going to regard the
daughter Of an enemy.
$50 you're Granger Longstreth's
girl?" queried the woman, with her
bright, black eyes fixed on her visitor.
"Yes," replied Miss Longstreth,
simply. "This is my cousin, Ruth
Herbert. We've come to nurse you,
take care of the children, help you in
any way you'll let u.s.
There was long silence.
'Well, you look little like Long
streth," finally said Mrs. Laramie,
sbut you're not at all like him. You
must take after your mother. Miss
Longstreth, don't know if can-if
I ought to accept anything from you.
Your father ruined my husband"
"Yes, I know" replied the girl sad
1y. 'That's all the more reason you
should let me help you. Pray don't
refuse. It will-mean much to me"
IF this poor, stricken woman had
any resentment it speedily melted in
the warmth and sweetness Of Miss
Longstreth's manner, and no sooner
had she begun to talk to the children
than both they and the mother were

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
"She's going to find it out sooner
or later. I tell you she knows now
there's something wrong out here
She's got eyes. Mark what say
cray has changed, know. But
she hasn't any idea yet that her
daddy's a boss rustler. Rays con-
cerned about what she calls my duty
as mayor. Also I think she's not sat-
isfied with my explanations in regard
to certain property"
Lawson halted in his restless walk
and leaned against the stone mantel-
piece. He had his hands in his pock-
cts. He squared himself as if this
| was his last stand. He looked desper-
ate, but on the moment showed an
absence of his usual nervous excite.

he said. "No doubt all you say is
true. But it doesn't help me. want
the girl. If don't get her-I reckon
we'll all go to hell"
! Longstreth gave a slight start
barely perceptible, like the switch of
an awakening tiger. He sat there head
down, stroking his mustache. Duane's
conviction was that Longstreth right
then and there decided that the thing
to do was to kill Lawson.
Lawson no more caught the fateful
significance of a line crossed, limit
reached, a decree decided than if he
had not been present. He was
obsessed with himself. How, Duane
wondered, had a man Of his mind ever
lived so long and gone so far among
the exacting conditions of the South.
west? The answer was, perhaps,
that Longstreth had guided him, up
held him, protected him. The COM
ing Of Ray LorgStreth had been the
enteringwedge OF dissension.
"YOu're too inpatient" said Long
streth. "Ray might be won. She
might marry you to save me, but she'd
hate you. That isn't the way. Wait.
Play for time. Let's plan to sell out
here-stock, ranch, property-and
leave the country. Then you'd have
show with her."

growled Lawson. "The gang won't
stand for our going. It can't be done
unless you want to sacrifice every
thing"
"You mean double-cross the men?
Go without their knowing? Leave
them here to face whatever comes?'
81 mean just that"
'sI'm bad enough, but not that bad"
