Seagrue had brought to the desert

Bill was looking from the window at

In rev moments more Spike had
found his way to the rendezvous. Sea
grue, impatient as always, demanded
to know as soon as he entered the
room what had kept him. Spike told
his story. or at least such part of it as
he deemed 1t wise to tell, and, turning
the tables on Seagrue, asked what was
up. Seagrue told him of the right-of
way contracts expected the following
day by Rhinelander.
What OF it?" demanded Spike.

quietly when Lug's hand, holding a
handkerchief saturated with chloro-
form, was thrust through the window
and despite her struggles Helen soon
was overpowered.

Lug scrambled into the car. He placed
Helen, now unconscious. in a sitting
position and ran to the hind end to
look for the machine. 1t had over
hauled the train and was speeding be-
side it along the highway. Lug waved
to the driver to come on. Returning
to the car. he motioned to Bill to help
him carry Helen out. The two men
picked her up and took her to the plat.
form. How to transfer her to the mo-
torcar was a problem that might have
given pause to more clever men. Lug
intended at first to throw the helpless
girl from the platform into the ma
chine, but this he discovered would
never do-the distance was too great.
Bill, an old sailor, came to the res
cue with another arrangement. In a
jiffy he had lashed Helen into a kind
of cradle in the middle OF the lolg
rope, and, throwing one end to the
driver. shouted to him to make it fast.
The latter, when he caught the line,
hitched 1t to the side of his car, and
with the motor and the train still at
high speed, Lug, on the rope. went
hand over hand down to the motorcar
Loosening the hitch, he then drew in
the rope. while Bill, on the platform,
carefully paid out and Helen was
transferred, uninjured. from the traiI;
to the machine.
Once within the motorcar, Helen
was unceremoniously dropped to the
bottom and left there, while the ma
chine was turned around and her cap
tors whisked back for Las Vegas with
her.
Storm, by this time, had left the con-
struction camp and was waiting at

Included within and lying at the base of the buttes uu which the Apache Chief group ies is found granite: lying above the granite and in contact with 1t is lime; ap- preaching the apex of the buttes, and above the lime is a schist This schist has been cut through on the northwest side of the buttes by q large porphyry dike. Beyond this dike, and forming the apex of the butteS is Schist which is again cut through by another pOrphyry dike paralleling the first. on the oppo- site side of the buttes beyond this DOT phyry dike is again found schist, in turn followed by lime. The lime is greatly altered, as is also the granite There are several iron cappings at the apex of the buttes. and prominent iron indications thrOughoUt the entire sur-
