weather-beaten pioneer who bore the
name of Cassidy, and his comfortable
cottage DISTRACTED both surveys.
The advent of two railroads building
neck and neck across the desert
through the little town had naturally
stirred every inhabitant of it to a high
pitch of excitement. Small wonder
that Cassidy's head had become in
some degree confused as to values,
and by the time Rhinelander got
around to see the bronZed pioneer
with check for two thousand dollars
the price first put upon the property
by it's veteran CONGRATULATIONS had
risen and Cassidy declared that he
would sell for ten thousand dollars
and not cent less.
Rhinelander, considerably taken
aback, impatiently assented to the ex-
Drbitant sum named, and going inside
the cottage, wrote out his check for it.
In exchange he received Cassidys
rather uncertain signature, on the GUS
tomary legal form, granting to the
Copper Range & Tide Water Railway
company privileges over the Cassidy
land as a freehold owner.
Seagrue, arriving from town, learned
from his foreman of the status Of the
insignificant plot Of ground, adverse

grue hurried to the end of the work,
and reached the ground just in time
to encounter Rhinelander coming out
of Cassidy'S house and the agreement
duly signed and delivered in his hand.
And behind Rhinelander came George
Storm ready to bring the men up to
take possession of the Cassidy de-
mesne.
Seagrue and his followers halted
them and Rhinelander, feeling the vic
tory all his own, explained the situa-
ton to Seagrue, while Storm, amiably,
but firmly, ordered Seagrue's men to
get Off the Copper Range property.
Seagrue, without saying anything to
controvert what he had heard walked
straight into Cassidys house. I'm
sorry to be little late, Cassidy" he
began, bluntly. You know we want
your property And we're prepared
to pay you reasonable price for it

Seagrue, impressively, nothing of that

crashing and smashing ahead, it tore
completely through Cassidys house.
A great cloud of dust and timbers
rose as from an explosion and the next
moment what had been house lay
torn into a thousand pieces along the
right Of way.
Like a spent cannon ball the outfit
car drove on; men, amazed, watching
it's wild flight. 1t struck the end OF
the rails, hung for moment poised,
trembled and toppled headlong from
the embankment into a borrow pit.
Storm sprang from the foot-board OF
the engine, and before the dust of the
crash had settled, called his men for
ward. Rhinelanders gang responded
with fresh hope and energy. Seagrue
saw with wrath how completely he
had been outplayed. He called his
men together to rush the Copper
Range forces for possession of the
Cassidy yard. They ran forward with
picks and shovels, and it looked to
Storm as if blood might be shed in
spite of everything, when the long,
shriil whistle of Soda Water Sal was
heard down the line, and within
few moments Helen brought the old
engine to q stop at the end of the
steel.
The deputies, followed by Rhine
LANDER and his attorney, poured out
of the gangway. Storm met his boss
Just what view Amos would take OF
the summary measures he had adopt,
ed to clear their right of way the
young man felt now a little uncertain
about. Rhinelander looked ahead for
the familiar landmark which he had
just acquired at the rather eXtrava,
CANT price Of ten thousand dollars and
asked where the Cassidy house was.
"Ahl gain t. he'll" interposed Cassidy
(who stood listening), pathetically.
Storm pointed to the wreckage lit
tering the right of way and told the
story Of what had been done by Sea
grue and how his play had been do
feated. Rhinelander's face lighted
with enthusiasm and Helen's eyes
danced with sheer joy. Seagrue dis.
gruntled and beaten, had seated him,
self on his own right of way on the
pile of ties vacated in excitement by
Cassidy In another hour Rhineland
ers men had made their title to the
disputed property good.
Cassidy bewilderedSby the extraor
binary turn things hNd taken, started
to walk back to where Seagrue was,
but on reflection, he changed his mind
and lighting his pipe, sat quietly
down on a part of the roof that had
for many years given him peaceful
shelter, to view the vengeance so
swiftly taken on his former abode. He
had less than Seagrue had to worry
lsbout. With both checks in his pock'
lei, i.c eqlt sure he must realize On at
least oae, and he sat on the scene
long after the men had quit work,
