In Seagrue's camp, Spike, am hour
later, was seated In front OF tent
cleaning lamp wssen Seagrue re
turned still in company with the at,
torney. Their sounding out of. the city
fathers had been unsuccessful and
Seagrue handed his foreman notice
to post on the bulletin board: k.
Work will be suspended on
the Coast and Colorado cutoff
until Las Vegas grants right
Of way to allow this company 20
reach the Superstition mines.
Spike, saunterfng over, read the no
tfce. Seagrue's eye fell on him at that
moment and recollection Of what he
termed Spikes treachery came to his
mind. He spoke to the convict rough
~. L suppose you know that in help
ing Rhinelander get those contracts,
you caused this trouble, Spike"
Spike glanced at him with an angry
shake Of the head. "Rhinelander
didn't need me to get tie contracts.
Helen. Holmes is the ons that beat
you, Seagrue."
The remark did not help to soothe
Seagrue's irritation. He kept after
Spike all the harder. IF you cross
me again" he said, threateningly, .Ill
hand you over to some high voltage,
my friend"
The wrangle was going from bad to
worse when Bill came in with Sea-
grue's coat. The latter, putting it ON
took his hat, directed Lug to post the
bulletin. beckoned to the attorney and
accompanied by him and Bill, started
for the station to catch the main line
local then due. When the train pulled
in Seagrue and the attorney boarded

Spike, left alone, went into his tent
he sat some moments thinking. Then
he rose and from a corner got out the
suit of clothes, carefully put away,
that Helen had bought for him in Las
Vegas. The least he could do, he felt,
was to take this over to Rhineland-
ers camp and return it to her with
such lame explanation as he could in
vent to cover the occasion.
He found Helen alone. She regard
ed him strangely as he approached.
Spike would rather have faced a sher-
If than to face her on such an er-
rand. He shuf11ed toward her ill at
ease and her silence did not help to
allay his embarrassment.
Il know you bought the clothes for
me- he muttered, because I helped
you get the contracts. I hated to turn

master handed Bill check. It was

over there at Rhinelander's.''
B1ll's sharp eyes followed the ges-
ture. Spike at that moment was just
leaving Rhinelander, Helen and
Storm. Bill, knave of more than
ordinary discernment and one who
hated Spike for his share in the fight
at Las Vegas, saw in the incident his
chance to get even. He put the check
aside and moment later when Spike
appeared at the pay car, Bill was ready
Descending the car steps, Bill called
to Spike as the. latter came forward.
Bill advanced to meet him What
do you mean, Spike demanded Bill
In loud and aggressive tones, pitched
SO that everybody might hear, 'by
running over to Rhinelander's camp
all the time? What are you up to
now, Spike?"
Spike was in the worst possible
mood to be badgered by anybody.
With hot expletive he babe Bill
mind his own business, and offered
gratuitously to break his head.
Bill turned to the men with a shout:
This Is the duck" he cried, that
helped Rhinelander steal our right of
way. boys. He's the guy that's thrown
us all out of work. What do you
know about that?'
Spike, in most opprobrious Ian
,guage, fatty gave Bill the lie. The
men. most Of whom were spelling for a
row, closed in to hear and devour the
heated argument that the two enc
mics engaged In. Accusations and de-
malls fell thick and fast; abuse fol-
lowed assertions; hard words and a
deep-seated enmity raised the tempers
OF both men. and~Bil1, without further
warning, swung and sent Spike with
terrific feft-hander to tho ground.
Spike was no sooner down than up.
He came back a. Bill goaded to fury
by the unprovokeG attack. Men crowd
ed up. Their cries and shouts had al
ready attracted the attention of Storm
and Helen who stood with Rhine1and- |
er still discussing SpiEe Storm was
the first to perceive what was going |
On in Seagrue's camp.
They're after Spike,'' he exclaimed.

Undismayed by the undertaking
Helen, followed by Rhinelander trying
to stop her, hurried toward Seagrue' q
| camp. Storm, with more forethought,
hastily got together such of his men
as were within hearing, and yelling in
his turn to Helen to wait, started after
her and Rhinelander. Fast as the
men ran, none could overtake her fly
ing feet. She dashed into the thick
of the fight ahead of everybody and
Selling Spike, pushed back his assail-
ants.
They stopped an instant from sheer
amazement at seeing lovely girl,
seemingly fallen from the sky, in the
middle of a hot scrimmage
Rhinelander rushed to her side.
Hands off, he cried, putting Spike
behind him. Shame! Twenty to one!
Where's your manhood?"
Without pausing to consider this ir-
relevant question, the mob started in
to hammer Spike and Rhinelander
both. 1t was then that George Storms
preparedness was INDICATED. He
fought his way into the ring, followed
by a dozen huskies, who beat back
Seagrue's men till Storm was enabled
to pull Spike away-his men holding
the line back of him.
But this diversion was good only
for moment, and Storm-not unused
to riots and fighting-knew better
than his companions the necessity of
further instant dispositions.
Helen had kept close to her friends.
We've got to get him out of here
quick, exclaimed Storm to her.
They'll tear him limb from limb il
they get him again. Helen he cried.
Back the outfit cars down the cutoff
for us, will you, as quick as the Lord
will let you? Well hustle him inside

Helen ran. Rhinelander and Storm,
picking up Spike, now almost uncon-
scious, dragged him, fast as they
could, from the scene, their men COW

was doing; and that the man standing
near her was none other than Sea-

NINTH 'lNSTALLMENT
CLOSE CALL

Despite Seagrue's persistent opposi
ton, Rhinelander secured the. right
Of way to enable him to complete the
Superstition cutoff, and unable to
stop the Tidewater construction work,
Seagrue resolved to try other methods
to defeat his rival.
Helen Holmes was enioying the
taste Of camp life that her trip to the
front had brought. And after the ex-
element had died down attending the
destruction of Cassidy's house, she
found herself amused and interested
in Cassidy himself, who was busy
next morning trying to restore much
battered stove to service near the
wreck of his shack Helen watched
his dazed efforts until sympathy over
came her, and excusing herself, she
walked over to where Cassidy was
struggling to get fire going.
Seagrue, who had been watching
the scene from a distance, saw Helen
join the old fellow, and deemed it his
opportunity to make tentative adj
vances toward the collective enemy.
Sauntering over, accordingly, he joined
Helen at a moment in which she sent
Cassidy for water and was herself
watching the fire starting in the
stove.
Helen looked up in establishment
when she heard Seagrue's greeting
Indeed, she resented his intrusion so
strongly that she refused all commun-
ication with him and for a time he
spoke into deaf ears.

Casting all this up in his mind, the
young railroader decided there was
but one mans thing for him to do and
that was to stay with his companions
whether all lost their lives or not
At Arden station the astonished OPP
orator had just time to dodge Helen's

Stormy Cloud, whose face is his for

Universal Animated Weekly. His is
one of the best known countenances in
America, for his counterfeit appears on
every gold coin and Buffalo nickel in
the United States. When it was de-
cided that the gold coins should be
changed, and that an Indian head was
the most appropriate design to be
placed upon them, a wide search was
made for the most typical Red Man.

forming most strictly to the ideal In

Mary Anderson de Navarro, better
known as Mary Anderson, the great
est classical actress produced by the
American stage, has been induced to
return to the drama by the Triangle
Film Corporation. This time she will
appear on the motion picture screen
instead of on the speaking stage, with
which her former great triumphs we're
associated. A collaboration with Rob
ert Kitchens in "The Garden of Allah"
Mary Anderson demonstrated her
ability as a dramtist and it is thought
that she will provide the very best
medium for her essays in the moving
picture field by her experience as a
writer for the speaking drama. In Mr..
Ince's opinion the great actress is
largely influenced to appear in public
by means Of the screen that she may
reproduce for posterity her wonderful
art.
