door and looking circumspectly into
the room before entering, he was sur

however, that the sash of the low win
dow on his left, which looked into the
patio, was open, and two heelmarks in
the hard clay suggested that man
might have jumped through. Running
out of the front door, he sprang into
his saddle and rode to where he could
signal De Spain and Scott to come up.
He told his story as they joined
him, and the three returned to the inn.
A better tracker than either OF his
companions, Scott after minute con-
firmed their belief that Sassoon must
have escaped by the window. He then
took the two men out to where some
one, within a few minutes, had mount

Lefever, pointing with his hand.

the snsw-capped peak of Music noun

He knows no one would follow him

"After him!" cried Lefever hotly. De

hear a request she was making of Nc
Alpin to mail a letter for her. She
also asked McAlpin, just as De Spain
drew up, whether the down stage had
passed. McAlpin told her it had. De
Spain, touching his hat, spoke: II am
going right up to Sleepy Cat. I'll mail
your letter if you WISH"
She looked at him in some surprise,
and then glanced toward Lefever, who
now rode up. De Spain was holding
out his hand for the letter. His eyes
met Mans, and each felt the moment
was sort Of challenge. De Spain, a
little Self-conscious under her inspec-
ton, was aware only Of her rather
fearless eyes and the dark hair under
her fawn cowboy hat.
"Thank you," she responded evenly

CHAPTER Nv.
First Blood at CaIabasas.

Nothing more than De Spain's an
| nouncement that he would sustain his
Safeguards was necessary to arouse
a violent resentment at Calabasas and
among the Morgan following. The
grievance against Elpaso was made a
general one along the line. His stage
was singled out and ridden at times
both by Sandusky and Logan-the
really dangerous men Of the Spanish
sinks-and by Gale Morgan and Sas-
soon to stir up trouble. ll
All Calabasas knew that Elpaso, if
he had to, would fight, and that the &C.
centric guard was not actually to be
cornered with impunity. Even Logan,
who, like Sandusky, was known to be
| without fear and without mercy, felt
at least respect for Elpaso's short
ened shotgun, and stopped this side
actual hostilities with him. Sassoon,
however, nOurished particular griev-
ance against the meditative guard, and
his was one not tempered either by
prudence or calculation. His chance
came one night when Elpaso had un-
wisely allowed himself to be drawn
into a card game at Calabasas inn. FL
paso was notoriously a stickler for a
square deal at cards. A dispute found
him without friend in the room. Sas-
soon reached for him with knife.
McAlpin was the first to get the
news at the barn. He gave first aid to
the helpless guard, and, without dream
ing he could be got to surgeon alive,
rushed him in light wagon to the
hospital at Sleepy Cat, where it was
said that he must have more lives than
wildcat. Sassoon, not caring to brave
De Spain's anger in town, went tenn
porarily into hiding. Elpaso, in the
end, justified his old reputation by
making a recovery-haltingly, it is
true, and with peri1ous intervals of
sinking, but recovery.
1t was while he still lay in the hos
pital and hope was very low that De
Spain and Lefever rode, one hot morn
ing, into Calabasas and were told by
McAlpin that Sassoon had been seen

fever the news was like a bubbling
spring to a thirsty man. His face
beamed, he tightened his belt, shook
out his gun, and looked with benevo-
lent interest on De Spain, who stood
pondering. eff you will stay right here,
Henry" he averred convincingly, II
will go over and get Sassoon."
The chief stage-guard, Bob Scott,
the Indian, was in the barn. He smiled
at Lefever's enthusiasm. "Sassoon," !"
said he, sis slippery"
you'd better let us 60 along and
see you do it," suggested De Spain,
who with the business in hand grew
thoughtful.
"Gentlemen, thank you," protested
Lefever, raising one hand in depreca-
ton, the other resting lightly on his
holster eve still have some little
reputation to maintain along the sinks.
Don't let us make it posse for Sas-
soOn." No one opposed him further,
and he rode away alone.
"It won't be any trouble for John

who spoke with smile and in the low

seemed now to regard De Spain keen
ly, as the latter, still attending to Nor
gan's statement, replied: "Elpaso tells
pretty straight story"
'Elpaso couldn't tell a straight
story if he tried" interjected Sassoon.
II have the statement Of three other
passengers; they confirm Elpaso. Ac-
cording to them, Sassoon-" De Spain
looked straight at the accused, twas
put some Of the other passengers off.
Finally he put his feet in the lap Of
Pumperwasser, our tank and windmill
man, and Pumperwasser hit him."
Morgan, stepping back from the bar,
waved his hand with an air Of finality
toward his inoffensive companion: {:
"Here is Sassoon, right here-he can
tell the whole story"
"Those fellows were Miners" NUT
tered Sassoon. His utterance was
broken, but he spoke fast. they'll
side with the guards every time
against cattleman."
"Sassoon," interposed Morgan bel
ligerently, "is man whose word can
always be depended on"
'"To convey his meaning" intervened
Lefever cryptically. "Of course, I
know" he asserted, earnest to the
point Of vehemence. Everyone in
Calabasas has the highest respect for
Sassoon. That is understood. And"
he added with as much impressiveness
as If he were talking sense, Everybody
in Calabasas would be sorry to see Sas-
soon put off stage. But Sassoon is
off: that is the situation. We are sorry.
If it occurs again"
"What do you mean?" thundered
Morgan, resenting the interference
"De Spain is the manager, isn't he?
What we want to know is, what you
are going to do about it?' he demand
ed, addressing De Spain again.
There is nothing more to be done,"
returned De Spain composedly. "I've
already told Elpaso If Sassoon starts
another fight on a stage to put him off
again."
Morgan's fist came down oD the bar
"Look here. De Spain! You come from
Medicine Bend, don't you? Well, you
can't bully Music Mountain men-un-
derstand that"
"Any time you have real grievance,
Morgan, I'll be glad to consider it,"
said De Spain. "When one of your
men is drunk and quarrelsome he will
be put off like any other disturber.
That we can't avoid. Public stages
can't be run any other way"
"All right" retorted Morgan. eff
you take that tack for your new man
agement, We'll see how you get along
running stages down in this country"
"We will run them peaceably, just as
long as we can," smiled De Spain. eve
will get on with everybody that gives
us chance"
Morgan pointed finger at him. 81
give you chance, De Spain, right now.
VIII you discharge Elpaso?"
"No."
Morgan almost caught bis breath at
the refusal. But De Spain could be
extremely blunt, and in the parting
shots between the two he gave no
ground.
"Jeffries put me here to stop this
kind of rOwdyism On the stages" he
said to Lefever on lile:r way back to

De Spain joined his associates at

AS the horses of the two men

slender horsewoman riding in toward
the barn from the Music Mountain

noted from Sleepy Cat by the new

Rigid EXAMINATION
FOR TUBERCULOSIS.

DR.. J. H. Elliott, of Toronto, who
has had charge of the tubercular
soldiers returned from the war front
10 Canada, said before the meeting
Of the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis,
which met in Cincinnati last week,
that the most rigid examination of
recruits should be made for the dis
case and none accepted for the army
who had even a slight tendency to
the disease, as the stress and griefs
Of war would develop it very quick
ly. When France hurriediy moboliz-
ed her army, very little attention was
paid to the examination for tuber-
culosis and the result is that fully
10000 soldiers have been invaded
home with the disease to further
spread it unless the utmost caution
is observed. He also gave it as his
