TENTH I%NSTALLMENT
"A DASH THROUGH FLAMES"

While the fight was going on in the
two camps, Seagrue, ignorant OF what
was taking place, urged his claims be-
fore the city council in Las Vegas for
a right OF way through their city prop
erty.
The council listened ccldly to his
demands. And the chairman OF the
ordinance committee, after q confer
ence with its members, informed Sea-
grue that what he asked was unreal
sonable. THE Copper Range & Tide
water railroad has one right OF way
through the city property. We can
not grant another"
Seagrue took the rebuff calmly.
Without abandoning further effort to
induce favorable action in behalf of
his road, he stopped a passing messen-
ger boy, wrote a telegram and handed
it to him for dispatch. What the ccun'
cilmen thought OF the situation did
not seem to disturb Seagrue material
ly. for having done this, he turned
again to the committee and renewed
his argument.
Hcten, with Rhinelander, Storm and
Spike, was heading, in Seagrue's ma
chine, for the bridge on which they
had Just derailed the outfit car toward
camp. Storm, locking back, disccv
cred that the ditched car had caught
fire and was burning up.
Its small loss," said Storm. And
anyway, it would cost more time ant
money t. get 1t en- track again thar
the car is WORTH
But exclaimed Rhinelander, urg
ing haste as he suddenly Sethough
himself OF the contents OF the burning
car, my most important deeds are IL
that car"
What do You mean?" demande'
Storm.

sued the rioters as they dispersed.
Desultory shooting went on for q few
minutes. Rhinelander with Helen and
Storm, had joined the sheriff and ex-
plantations had just begun when Helen,
looking down street, called the atten-
ton of her companions to smoke issu-
ing from the front Window of the city
hall.
"By lingo" cried the 81 sssff, DASH
ing away, I've got a prisorA, chained
in there-Spike."
With EXPLANATIONS of hCrror, Helen
and her companions followe1 the off,
Ger On the run. The fire in tie council
chamber was making herd way fast.
Helen, going as close as @ie dared to
the open window, called loudly for

recorders office and began a search
among the books. il was not until he
| had tossed one book after another
aside and when, finding the lost book
of deeds, he consulted the index book
and threw open the pagas containing
Rh~inelander's right-of.way deeds, that
| Spike got the least inkling C what
| he was after.
But the moment Bill found the page
he was looking for, he slapped his
hand down on it exuitantly. That's
the book we want" he exclaimed
huskily.
Spike stretched his eagle neck for
ward. Fine" he muttered, %grinning.
Hold en-! What's that?" he whispered
IN alarm, grabbing Bills arm with a
start. Il
Bill, alarmed, looked around. Some.
body's coming" cried Spike, under his
breath. See if Lug's there"
Bill u~nsuspectingly ran out to see II
their lookout had been disturbed. The
instant he left the room Spike, watch
ing his chance, ripped the two leaves
recording Rhinelander's deeds forcibly
from the book and slowed them into
the breast of his shirt just as Bill re,
turned.
Bill grabbed up the book and going
to an open window, dropped the book
where Lug stood waiting. The mo,
ment the latter caught the heavy vol
ume he made hurriedly away with il
for Seagrue's room.
Spike and Bill were less fortunate
in their escape. They walked into the
hallway and had reached the head OF
the stairs when they were seen by the
day Waterman. With a shout he hailed
them.
Rill, without h~esitating, whipped
out his revolver and fired. Spike an
grily caught his companions arm
wrested the gun frcm his hand and
stuck it in his own pocket. The watch
man, pulling his own pistol, dropped
back into a doorway. Bill dashed
down the corridor one way, while
Spike made a record sprint down the
stairs the ether. The Waterman chased
Bill, and Bill reaching a window
sprang through it tc the ground. Get
ting on his feet, he ran for safety
down the street.
The n shot fired in the courthouse
had already made a commotion. Spik'
gaining the foot Of the stairs hid him

front, ran upstairs to see what wal

he found at the moment the sheriff
was leaving him. Bill told his en-
ployer the machine story and the two
went back to the outfit train to see
what condition the motor car had been
left In.
Spike camo forward as Seagrue and
Bill appeared and while the latter two
examined the machine.
1.-The girl and Storm came up with
this crook in the machine" Bill said,
nodding toward Spike.
Where are they now?" demanded
Scagrue Of the convict.
Up town getting something to eat
answered Spike.
In the restaurant, to which Storm
had taken Helen for lunch before they
should go up to the courthouse, Storm,
while Helen was ordering. took from
his pocket the ncte for the recorder
and gave 1t to her. Helen opened, re.
read and laid the note on the table
with her pccketbcok. She and Storm
were just enjoying the prospect Of a
substantial meal, when Seagrue, walk.
ing in, approached their table. He
spoke to them unconcernediy and
without waiting for an invitation
pulled up a chair and sat down with
them.
AS tactfully as she could, she made
her explanations to Seagrue about
Communicating his motor car. Sea
grue affected turbulence and declined
to accept her apologies. But he drew
a pencil from his pocket, at length.
and using the note lying beside Hell
ems pccket5ook fer a pad, wrote on
it an exorbitant figure. Showing this
to Helen, he said dogrlatically. That's
what it will cost, if you want this
thing settled without trouble for you
Helen flushed a little with indigna
tion when she saw what he demanded
but she was resolved net to quarrel
"All right" she answered simply, 'Mr
Rhinelander will send you a check
The luncheon Storm had ordered
was just coming in and while Heller
and Storm watched the waitress, Sea
grue, leaning forward, locked again al
Rhinelander's note still lying en- the
table. He began to read it. Storm
saw the i~mpertinence and leaning
over, coolly picked the note from I'm
der S~eagrue's eyes and folding it, put
it in Helen's p3cketbook.

wrong. And when the coast below was
clear Spike slipped out Of the open
door ana walked away.
Seagrue, at his window, had been
watching his men in Main street. Aft
er what seemed an interninable time,
he heard steps On the hall stairs and
the next Ecment Lug, hurrying into
the room as Seagrue opened the door
for him, threw the book Of records
on the table.
Seagrue opened 1t in haste and
looked for what he wanted, but while
the index sheets indicated tho regis
try of the deeds. he failed to fini the
pages where they should be. While
ne was searching Bill ran in.
WELL" exclaimed Bill. you got
what you want. We came mighty
near getting pinched."
Seagrue answered testify. II don't
see how I've got what l want. Rhine
lander's deeds are not in this book.
Where are the pages that belong
here?"
Go find Spike" directed Seagrue,
wrathfully. And bring him in quick"
Suppose he won't Gomez" parted
Bill.
"Kill him. returned Seagrue with
out hesitation. Bring him anyway"
The men, lettering along Main street
and drinking. had worked themselves
into an ugly mood even before Spike,
walking through the crowd, was rec
ognized by one and accosted. The
man, who was ouarrelsome, caught
the convict by the coat collar. Spike
shook himself loose and was walking
away when Bill hurried on the scene
Where are the pages you tore out
CT that book?' he demanded angrily
Of Spike.
Spike regarded him with assumed
establishment. What do you mean,
telling me I tore anything out of your
bcok? he asked. You carried the
