Overland lighted his cigaret
The soft glow of the match spread
in the MINDLESS air, penetrating
the darkness. For an instant
Overland saw a startled face gaz-
ing down at him; the white face
of the Rose Girl!

Billy Dime looked down at the
blood-soaked sleeve of his right
arm. "The fella that did it ID

Williams examined the pros

and in the side. 'Tain't bad, but
it's bad enough. Got any whis-

You bet! / got a pocket-gun
here. Swiped it in the saloon"
And Pars Long handed flask to
Williams.
The riders, standing around the
fallen man, watched Williams as
he bound up the wound. The whis-
ky partially revived Overland. He
managed finally to cling to the
saddle, supported by Williams.

CHAPTER Xxx.
Morning.

Louise, drawing on her gaunt-
let's, came. down the broad steps
of the ranch-house. The air was
crisp with the tang of early morn
ing.
She was puzzled at finding
Boyar and Yuma together. She
noticed Boyar had trailed his bri-
die across the yard-an unusual
thing for him to do, considering
his training.
The girl wondered why Collie
had saddled Yuma. He usually
rode one of the ranch horses to
work. She wanted to talk with
him-to reason with him; for her
knowledge of the previous nights
disclosures worried and distressed
her.
But Collie was not to be seen.
Deliberately Louise united the
Yuma colt and swung into the
saddle. She knew Collie would
follow her. She was riding his
pony, the Yuma colt, and he would
be fearful for the riders safety.
Collie, coming from the bunk
house, found Black Boyar stand
ing alone where his own pony had
stood. This was not an invitation;
this was daring him to follow.
He rode into the canyon, half
conscious of Yuma's tracks ahead
of him. He rode past the tracks
as they swerved toward grassy
level near the stream.

Louise stood beside the Yuma,
patting the pony's neck. Collie
raised his sombrero formally.

"All right. But you are so un-

You don't act naturally. Is there
something about me that is differ

"You dor"

wish you were different. I want
to remember you like you are"
ITO remember me?"
"Yes," he whispered, Ito re-
member YOU"
He seemed to see regret, aston
ishment, questioning, gentle re-
proof, even a hint of amusement
in her eyes.
"Collie, do you realize that
have already asked you to dis
mount? Shall / have to ask you
again? Do you realize that / am
standing while you are sitting

II am begging your pardon,
Louise"
The girl nodded brightly. She
watched the rise and fall of the
muscles of his arm, beneath his
flannel shirt, as he lighted his Gig
aret. How broad-chested and

Night.


The Marshalls, delighted with
Los Angeles, had taken apart
ments in the city. DR.. Marshall,
at the urgent request of Walter
Stone, had called at the hospital
to see Collie. The wound had
healed slowly. Collie gained no
strength. He seemed Indifferent
as to whether he recovered or not.
DR.. Marshall, consulting with the
surgeon, agreed that the young
mans recovery was still doubtful.
Later, when Walter Stone, Mrs.
Stone and Louise visited the hos
pital, Collie had smiled wanly and
said but little, thanking them for
their visit with word.
Louise returned home, heart
sick and haunted by Collie's eyes.
The little parcel that came to
the hospital, directed to Collie,
was from Overland. 1t was &C
companied by a wildly worded
note and a small, stained and
wrinkled glove, at once familiar.
Overland's note explained the
delay in forwarding the glove.

because I had it in my shirt
when I was hit. was some
mussed up likewise, or I would
not "a forgot it so long. The lit
tie Rose Girl sent 1t to you by
Brand when she thinks you was
going to cross over on the last sun

fine, thanks. Do not rite to me IL
1t gives you cramps.-Youres YER
ry faithfully. Jack"
Collie turned the gauntlet over
in his trembling fingers. His eyes
glowed. He called the nurse, tell
ling her he was hungry.
William Stanley Winthrop, So
journing briefly but fashionably
in Los Angeles, appeared at the
hospital in immaculate outing
flannels. 1t was several weeks
since the arrival OF the little par
Gel. Winthrop took the GONZALES
cent Collie to she Moonstone
Cdis
Winthrop was guest of the
Stones for several days. During
that time Collie lay stretched in
lounging chairs on the veranda,
seemingly too languid to move.
Billy was much with Louise.
And Louise, even with her
deeper understanding than is ac-
corded to most girls, was restless,
distraught, and finally angry with
Collie. She did not recognize the
green-eyed monster perched by
that young mans elbow.
At last, one night, the restless
ness got the better OF the girl, and
she slipped out of the corrals.
Boyar, the black pony, shook
his head with silvery jingling
of rein-chains. His sleek flanks
glistening in the moonlight.

unconquerable. He wrote a long

The general store and saloon
of the old mining camp still stood
at the corner of Gophertown fac
ing the desert.
Silent Saunders was in the gen.
eral store and saloon. He was dis
gusted in that he had been unable
to induce the citizens to ride out
with him and clean up Overland
Reds claim.
Saunders, coming from the sa.
loon, saw a band of horsemen far
out on the desert. He beckoned
to the saloon-keeper.

said, pointing toward the desert.
