"Dave tells me the whole force has

Dave Laws duties as Ranger rest

We vague, and he had a leisurely
method of working up" his evidence.
Since he knew that Blaze possessed a
thorough knowledge of this section and
its people, 1t was partly business which
had brought him to the Jones home
this afternoon.
Strictly speaking, Blaze was not q
rancher, He had speculated heavily in
raw lands, and for several years past
he had devoted his energies to a gi-
gantic colonization scheme. 1t was by
no means small operation in which
he was engaged. The venture had

straight"
"Pshaw! Now who's been giving
you orders, DaveY'
"Why, I'm with the Rangers"
"Never knew a word of it. Last /
heard you was filibustering around
with the Maderistas."
Blaze seated himself with grateful
sigh where the breeze played over him.
He was big, bearlike, swarthy man
with the square-hewn, deep-lined face
of tragedian, and a head of long,
curly hair, which he wore parted in a
line over his left ear. Jones was a
character, local landmark. This part
of Texas had grown up with Blaze,
and he possessed splendid indiffer-
ence to the artificial fads of dress
and manners. He was plainly an out
door man.
$50 you're Ranger, and got notches
on your gum" Blaze rolled and lit a
tiny cigarette, scarcely larger than a
wheat straw. ''Well, you'd ought to
make right able thief-catcher, Dave,
only for your size-you're too long for
man and you amt long enough for a
snake. Still, reckon a thief would
have trouble getting out of your reach,
and once you got close to him How

Counting Mexicans?' Law inquired
with smile.
"Nobody counts them"
"Not many"
"That's good" Blaze nodded and

Il believe Austin is a strong rebel
sympathizer," Law ventured.
"Sure! and him and the Lewis out
fit are amigos. If you go pirootin'
around Tads place you're more'n apt
to make yourself unpopular, Dave. I'd
grieve some to see you in a wooden
kimOno. Tad's too well fixed to steal
cattle, and if he runs arms it's be-
cause he's a galvanized Gringo' him
self-married a Mexican, you know"
When mealtime drew near, both
Jones and his daughter urged their
guest to stay and dine with them, and
Dave was glad to accept.
"After supper I'm going to show you
our town." Blaze declared. "Its the
finest city in south Texas, and grow
Ing like a weed. All we need is good
farmers. Those we've got are mostly
back-to-nature students who leaped a

'Yes, father"
Paloma Jones had developed won
derfully since Dave Law had last seen
her. She had grown into most whole

with an honest, humorous pair of
brown eyes. During dinner she did
her part with grace that made watch

found it great treat to sit at her
table after his strenuous scouting days

Miss Paloma's answer was unexpect-

CHAPTER vi.
Blaze Jones and His Neiohbors.

Blaze Jones rode up to his front gate
and dismounted in the shade of the big
ebony tree. He stepped back and ran
an approving eye over another animal
tethered there. OF course the youths
Of this day were nothing like the
youths of his own, and yet-Blaze let
his gaze linger fondly on the highbred
mare and her equipment-herea at least
was a person who knew a good horse,
a good saddle and good gun.
AS he came up the walk he heard
Paloma laugh, and his own face light
ened, for his daughters merriment was
contagious. Then as he mounted the
steps and turned the corner of the
""o olery" he uttered a. hearty greeting.

taken foresight, courage, infinite hard
work: Blaze was burdened with re-
sponsibilities that would have broken
down man of weaker fiber.
But his pet relaxation was reminis-
cence. His own experience had been
wide, he knew everybody in his part
of the state, and although events in
his telling were sometimes colored by
his rich Imagination, the information
he could give was often of the great
est value-as Dave Law knew.
After a time the latter said, casually,
ssTell me something about Tad Lewis" !"
Blaze looked up quickly. What do
you want to know?"
"Anything. Everything"
'Tad owns a right nice ranch be-
tween here and Las Palmas," Blaze
said cautiously.
Paloma broke out impatiently. "Why
don't you say what you think?" Then
to Dave: "Tad Lewis is bad neigh
Dor, and always has been. There's a
ford on his place, and we think he
knows more about wet cattle than
he cares to tell"

"You can't call Ed Austin one Of our

The boys say that the ground they worked was so poor that this struck them as moro in the nature of an ironic jest.
