Bisbee daily review., 1916-06-04

Adams, when Helen pushed him over, had struck his head against an iron bar and he lay on the car floor almost unconscious. Ward turned to him the minute Helen was gone. Wake up." he shouted. We've got to get out of here"
 Whats up?" demanded Adams, groggily.
 We're left, man. Shake yourself , and get out of here before you get | pinched."
 Waiting their chance when their train slowed down in passing the next station. the two men jumped out Of tho box car. Down the line Ward saw
 the bridge they had passed when Helen sprang from the car That girl can't be far off yet" he muttered. '.She may be hunting for the bag. If We get there quick enough. we can get hold of it ourselves" Helen. running fast as she could, searched the right of way keenly. Help was nearer to her than she was aware of. But she had eyes for noth- ing beyond her search, and, finally, hardly a stones throw from the bridge itself. she saw the bag lying on the gravel s
 The nearest station was to the north. Helen began to retrace her steps, thinking to telephone or to get somehow in touch with Rhinelander from there. Fastening on, she heard her name called. and. looking up, was astonished to see Spike waving his hand at her from the bridge just ahead. He and Rhinelander, follow ing the train in the machine. had seer her spring from the box car.
 She started to run forward to join Spike. But Ward and Adams had come up. Seeing Helen approach. they hid. and when she passed them they seized and overpowered her and dragged the bag from her hands.
 Not without stout resistance on her part. She fought the two with blows and screams. and Spike, hearing the commotion, ran to where he could slip over the side of the bridge and drop to the tracks. Shouting loudly as he scrambled to his feet, he ran to where Ward and Adams were fight ing Helen, who had again got ner hands on the bag But when Spike reached the scene the encounter was short.
 Ward. the more powerful of Sea srue's men, engaged him furiously. and. as a boxer. would have put him out. had not Spike cIenched and slammed the big fellow heavily to the ground. He jumped at Adams before Ward could come back. and the two crooks. seeing the game lost, took to their heels.
 Spike turned to see what damage had been done to Helen. She had the bag safely in hand and they started together to join Rhinelander.
 The bag was TOW committed to Spike for safekeeping. and Rhine lander headed the car for the city in an effort to reach Seagrue's quarters quickly with the payment Burning the tires all the way into town. he pulled up with jerk before Seagrue's apartment and the three. alighting from the car, hastened up to his rooms.
 Seagrue, expecting the return of Ward and Adams with their loot. caught his breath when he faced Rhinelander and his escort at the door. Rhinelander he could account for. Helen. he was not at great loss to account for; but to see the craning neck. square jaw. straight nose and cold. gray eye of Spike in the twilight of the hallway was too much for even Seagrue's pOise. When they pushed their way in upon him. he made hardly any attempt to resist IT wasn't looking for you," he stammered
 Rhinelander laughed. No, 1 un- derstand. However, it's all right. A couple of your men. Seagrue. had this bag in handr-he held up the leather grip for Seagrues inspection-'tc bring to you" Rhinelander's eyes were sparkling with the zest of vic tory. They were detained. Seagrue.- he went on. enjoying 10 the full the consternation of the breathless rascal before him. Tn fact. the two met with a little accident" He nodded toward Helen as the little accident herself. The police are looking for the pair now" explained Rhinelander. testing ly But we thought It only neighhoriv to bring the bag in. ourselves Espe- cially since you seem to consider that our title to the Superstition mine rests on your receiving the actual cash to- day for the second payment
