weather-beaten pioneer who bore the
name of Cassidy, and his comfortable
cottage INSTRUCTED 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 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 its veteran owner-valuations 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-
orbitant sum named, and going inside
the cottage, wrote out his check for It..
In exchange he received Cassidy's
rather uncertain signature, on the Gus
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
possession of which might Illustrate
their persistent plans for obstructing
Rhinelander. With his surveyors Sea-
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 Cassidy's 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 a reasonable price for it
not an extravagant price" declared
Seagrue, impressively, nothing of that
kind, but" he asked, buttonholing
the old man with friendly emphasis,

Spike. When you're ready to commit
suicide, I'm ready to go to the straps
ahead of you or after you-that's as
the sheriff may prefer. But until that
moment comes, Spike"-a threatening
information made itself felt within the
studied utterance-"until that moment,
Spike, you will take your orders from

Spike looked gloomily down at the
ticket he held in his hand. He real
lied he was utterly helpless. "An

Seagrue shook hands with the sher-

platform. Il don't think I'll have any

undertone. Thank you just the same,
