Storm accompanied Lyons and Helen
into the station.
Seagrues men, crowding after their
triumphant foreman, gave the laugh
to the Tidewater gang, who stood with
their hands in their pockets, and
started after the ties.
Inside the office a perplexed and
disgruntled group gathered around
Helen. She showed the dispatcher s
message to the conductor. Seagrue,
not to be outfaced, came inside to
watch the proceedings and demanded
to know again of the puzzled conduc-
tor whether the ties were not plainly
enough for him. In the face of the
conflicting evidence the conductor did
not know what to decide. Fight it
out yourselves, boys! I give it up
was all that could be got out of him.
And Seagrue, declaring he would I'M
load the ties anyway, left the office
Once outside, he again spurred De-
laney to haste.
Storm followed Seagrue from the
office and once outside and away from
Helei ne protested vigorously. Rhine
lander, behind him, told Storm to keep
cool. At that moment Delaney, break
ing in, almost precipitated a riot. Get
out of this thing" he beloved at
Storm, 'and keep out! Do you get
that? You're talking too much"
With the words, he pushed Storm
back. It was the wrong moment to lay
hands on the stalwart young engine
man, now greatly wrought up. His
arm shot out and his fist caught De-
laney on the jaw. The big foreman
staggered.
Seagrue, glad enough to find himself
outside the center of the brawl, walked
away only to encounter Spike as the
latter, dashing in from the highway,
sprang from his horse and hurriedly
beckoned Seagrue to him.
The two conferred in quick under
tones together and Rhinelander, who
stood with Helen and Lyons. watching
them, saw them run to the tie cars, re-
move the billing cards and bring them
back. Seagrue, with the air of man
aggrieved, showed the cards to Rhine
lander.
What do you say to this?'' he de-
manded, in the confirmation of his
claims Call off your men. They're
starting a riot here to keep me from
taking possession of my own prop
erty."
Rhinelander, as near angry as he
ever got, stamped his foot. i tell you

once, where he sent this message to
Seagrue:
Changed the two ties you thought
RhineIander wears for two that suit
Seagrue.
Say, where's the nearest livery sta
BILE in this place, mister" Spike asked
the agent
He hardly waited to hear the answer
given him before he was on his way
out of the office. And without losing
a minute he got horse where he
had been directed for one and rode
hastily away on it.
Helen, a few moments later. took
Spikes message to Seagrue. When
she handed it to Lyons he said he
would deliver it. Placing the dupli-
cate on file, Helen resumed her cro-
Chef work.
Passing the Tidewater camp, Lyons
saw Rhinelander, Storm and Wood in
conference over unloading the expect
ed ties.
"You don't need me over at the sta
tion,' said Wood to Rhinelander "I'll
send Storm with the men to look after
the unloading. I'll stay here with
these lazy graders"
Seagrue himself took the message
from Lyons. He read it with secret
satisfaction. The moment Lyons had
left, Seagrue called Delaney, his fore
man, told him to get the gang together
To 1I77Io Of
the local freight pulled in.
But in the interval the Tidewater
camp leaders, Rhinelander and Storm,
were not losing any time in looking
after the shipment themselves, and
they appeared together at the station
to get track of it. Lyons, in response
to Rhinelander's inquiries, said he did
not know what the local freight was
carrying.
"You find out, will you, Helen?'
asked Rhinelander And as he made
the request he showed her his letter
advising him the ties would be on the
local.
While Rhinelander, Storm, Helen
and Lyons were thus engaged, Sea-
grue and his foreman, Delaney, en-
tered the office. Seagrue seemed at
his best, very affable and friendly with
everybody and was soon asking Ques-
tions as to what ties were coming for
him that morning. Helen took his in
quiries and Rhinelander, overhearing,
explained that the ties coming in on
the local freight train that morning
were for the Tidewater work, not for
! Seagrue. Seagrue declared him mis-
taken. A dispute flared up, which in a

The foremost OF the men caught in
the white, fog were glad to get away
unhurt, and hating at safe distance
rallied for orders.
Delaney, whose fighting blood was
just getting warmed up, saw further
chance and called to his men to fol-
low him around the cut. The gang
divided and Delaney's part of it, start
ing over the hill, met Rhinelander's
men. For time there was not
mix-up. AS the enemy came on in
ever increasing numbers, Wood and
his men were soon getting the worst
of it, but fresh shouts were heard
down the hill and at the moment the
sheriffs posse-now arrived-running
in, took the side of Rhinelander's men
and helped them beat Seagrue's gang
back.
Outnumbered, driven from their
vantage ground and disheartened at
the unexpected diversion Of the enc
my, Seagrue's men sullenly gave way;
even Bill Delaney's fiercest efforts
failed to rally them. 1t was only
few minutes before the sheriff's men
were making prisoners right and left,
rounding up the stragglers and march
ing them down the cut. The hill had
been won and lost, but the ties had
been firmly held and were safely in
Rhinelander's possession.
The moment the fight was decided,
Storm, with Helen, went back to the
engine to get their personal prisoner,
the redoubtable Spike. They took him
back to where the sheriff was giving
his orders for the disposition of those
under arrest. Helen explained to the
had done.
"Well," demanded the official jocu-
larly, "whatll we do with him? String
him up right here in box carp
"No," exclaimed Helen, Indignantly.
"You can do better than that" She
pointed to Seagrue, now also under
arrest. put those two men at work
unloading these ties for our camp.
They are the ringleaders in the whole
affair. If they had their deserts, they
would both be in the penitentiary.
Make them work, sheriff. That's the
last thing that pair want to do" Rhine
lander came up with his men as she
finished.
You're right" declared the sheriff,
good humored over the outcome
From the look of 'em, what those
guys need is a dose of good, hard
work" He turned to his deputies and
pointed to the ties. Get those fel.
lows up on the fiat cars and see they
both work every minute till the last
tie is unloaded.''
Suppose they refuse to work."
suggested deputy.
"Refuse?" echoed the sheriff, saw
agely. eff they do, find a pump that
will work and give 'em the cold wa
ter"
But Seagrue and Spike did work.
When Helen, Rhinelander and Storm
left the scene the two, beading with
sweat, were pitching ties in record
time.

FIFTH INSTELLMENT
THE FIGHT AT SIGNAL STATION

The operator at Signal station could
hardly have been more peacefully en-
gagged than she was at the moment
George Storm threw open the office
door and paused on the threshold
What are you doing over here this
morning?" demanded Helen.
Looking for job"
You might take mine," suggested
Helen, lifting her eyebrows in a pro-
fession of sympathy.
Whereabouts is that man Rhine
lander?" asked Storm lazily Hasn't
he got some kind Of construction
camp around this joint?"
why, how stupid of me not to have
thought of Uncle Amos myself" ex-
claimed Helen. "0f course he has.
And he's sure to have a job for you"
HE is sure" drawled Storm, "either
to have job for me or the best
chance he ever had in his life to get
licked-T give him his choice"
Kind of you," retorted Helen; "he
wouldn't mind getting licked, of
course, but he is short of men-I hap
pen to know that"
Maybe I'd better go over and give
him a chance to hire me-
Suppose / go with you"
Helen and Storm found Rhinelander
hard at work. 1t was the first time he
had seen Storm since the night on
the launch and he greeted his visitors
with a hearty laugh. Licked? " He
echoed, after Helen had repeated her
companions threats. why, George, |

and showed it triumphantly to Sea.
grue. Seagrue entered an emphatic
dissent. 81 don't care what those
boobs at Oceanside sayS' he snapped.
"Those ties are for me and you'll find
out l know what I'm talking about"
Fast words followed. Storm and De-
laney again eyed each other iercely.
Then the sound of a freight train pull
ing in started everybody in the room
out for the platform. The moment the
train stopped the disputants crowded
forward, each side eager to reach the
conductor first. The conductor, man
of peace, listened unmoved to the vio-
lent contentious addressed to him. At
length he produced the waybills for
the property in dispute. Seagrue got
hold of them first To his delight he
saw that, as expected, they read to
him as consignee, and he showed them
with an injured air to Lyons. Rhine
lander, reading the doctored bills over
Lyons shoulder, was COMPOUNDED.
Seagrue meant to let nothing of his
advantage slip for lack of action He
whirled on Delaney. Get our ties off
those cars, Bill, and do it quick"
Storm took o hand in. He felt his
side was beaten, but would not quit.
Hold on" he said gruffiy mot yet.
This thing is in dispute. Take your
time" he added to Delaney, and a sig
nifcant look lent strength to his words.
Again Rhinelander quoted Storm
down. Delaney began giving orders to
