CHAPTER XIV.

Duane returned to Fairdale and
camped in the mesquite till the twenty
third of the month. The few days
seemed endless. All he could think
of was that the hour in which he must
disgrace Ray Longstreth was slowly
but inexorably coming. In that wait
ing time he learned what love was
and also 4ty. When the day at last
dawned he rode like one possessed
down the rough slope, hurting stones
and crashing through the bush, with a
sound in his ears that was not all
the rush of the wind. Something drag
ged at him.
Apparently one side Of his mind was
unalterably fixed, while the other was
a hurrying conglomeratinn of flashes
of thought, reception Of sensations.
He could not get calmncss. BY and by,
almost involuntarily, he hurried faster
on. Action seemed to make his state
less oppressive; it eased the weight.
But the farther he went on the harder
it was to continue. Had he turned his
back upon love, happiness, perhaps on
life itself?
There seemed no use to go on far
ther until he was absolutely sure of

had come out with gun in his hand.
This he laid on a table near the wall.
He wore no belt.
Lawson was red, bloated, thick
Tipped, all fiery and sweaty from drink,
though sober on the moment, and he

stand. though he was ignorant of that.
whats your news? You needn't be
afraid of my feelings" said Lawson.
"Ray confessed to an interest in this
ranger" replied Longstreth.
Duane thought Lawson would choke.
He was thick-necked anyway, and the
rush of blood made him tear at the
soft collar of his shirt. Duane awaited
his chance, patient, cold, all his feel
ings shut in wise.
But why should your daughter meet
this ranger2" demanded Lawson,
harshly.
"She's in love with him, and he's in
love with her,"

80 YOU are great lover of music"
said Mrs. Blumley to the new bOarder
who was about to take possession OF
his room. Really it is almost coin
cidence that you should have come to
NV house, for. with hardly a single ex-
ception, my bOarders are musical. You
will find yourself in a real musical
atmosphere.

have d little granddaughter only nine
years old who plays wonderfully for

for you this evening if you are to be in.
Mr.. Pirkly, the very blonde young man

hear her sing Where Is My Wandering

Yes, and / came near driving you

duane, will you do me a favorT'
he asked, and he seemed shamefaced.
"Sure."
Let Ray and Ruth think Lawson
shot you. He's dead. 1t can't matter.
Duane, the old side of my life is
coming back. It's been coming. And,
I'd change places with Lawson if l
could"
"Glad yOu-said that, Longstreth,"
replied Duane. and sure-LawsOn
plugged me. It's our secret"
Just then Ray and Ruth entered the
room. Duane heard two low cries. so
different in tone, and he saw two
white faces. Ray came TO his side.
She lifted a shaking hand to point at
the blood upon his breast. White and
mute she gazed from that to her
father.
Papa" cried Ray, wringing her
hands.
Don't give way" he replied, husk-
lily. Both you girls will need your
nerve. Duane isn't badly hurt. But
Floyd isis dead. Listen. Let me
tell it quick. There's been a fight. It
it was Lawson-it was Lawson's
gun that shot Duane. Duane let me
off. In fact, Ray, he saved me. I'm
to divide my property-retUrn so far
as possible what I've stolen-leave
Texas at once with Duane, under ar
rest. He says maybe he can get Mac
Nelly, the ranger captain, to let me
go. For your sake!"
She stood there, realizing her deliver
ance, with the dark and tragic glory
of her eyes passing from her father
to Duane.
You must rise above this" said
Duane to her. 81 expected this to
ruin you. But your father is alive.
He will live it down. I'm sure I can
promise you he'll be free. Perhaps
back there in Louisiana the dishOnOr
will never be known. This matter OF
land, water, a few stray head of stock
had to be decided out of court. To
protect himself he bound men to him.
He could not control them. He be-
came involved with them, and so he
grew into the leader because he was
the strongest. Whatever he is to be
judged for, I think he could have been
infinitely worse"

by the fact It nonplused hLp some
what and he became thoughtful,
with lowered head.
Where II you wait, Duane" in
sisted MacNelly, with keen eyes
Specializing.
I'll wait in front-just inside the
door" replied Duane, with an effort.
But will you hide?" asked Mac
Nelly.
Duane was silent.
MacNelly stared and then a strange,
comprehending light seemed to fit
over his face.
Duane, l can give you no orders
to-day" he said, distinctly. I'm only
offering advice. Need you take any
more risks? You've redeemed your
self. The governor the adjutant-gen-
eral-the whole state will rise up and
honor you. 1 say, as q ranger, need
you take more risk than your cap
tainT"
Still Duane remained silent. He
was locked between two forces. And
one, a tide that was bursting at its
bounds, seemed about to overwhelm
him. Finally that side of him, the
retreating self, the weaker, found
voice.
Captain, just what III do or where
I'll be I can't say yet. In meetings
like this the moment decides. Bur
I'll be there"
MacNelly spread wide his hands,
looked heiplessIy at his curious and
sympathetic rangers, and shook his
head.
NOW you've done your work-laid
the trap-is this strange move of yours

going to be fair to Miss Longstreth"
asked MacNelIy, in significant low
voice.
Like a great tree chopped at the
roots Duane vibrated to that. He
looked up as if he had seen a ghost.
MercilessIy the ranger captain went
on: you can win her, Duane! Oh,
you can't fool me. I was wise in
minute. Fight with US from cover.
You'll be free, hOnored, happy. That
girl loves you! saw it in her eyes.
She's"
But Duane cut him short with a
fierce gesture. He lunged up to his
feet, and the rangers fell back. Dark,
silent, grim as he had been, still there
was a transformation singularly more
sinister, stranger.
Enough. I'm done" he said, SOM
berly. I've planned. Do we agree
or snail 1 meet Poggin and his gang
alone?"
NIacNelly cursed and again threw
up his hands, this time in batfled
chugrin. There was deep regret in
his dark eyes as they rested upon
Duane.
Duane was left alone.
Never had his mind been so quick, so
clear, so wonderful in its understanding
of what had heretofore been intricate
and elusive impulses of his strange
nature. His determination was to meet
Poggin; meet him before anyone else
had a chance--Poggin frst-and then
the others He was as unaIterable
in that decision as if on the instant
of its acceptance he had become stone.

CHAPTER XVI.

On the morning of the twenty-sixth
| Duane rode into Bradford in time to
catch the early train. His wound did
not seriously incapacitate him. Long
| streth was with him. And Miss Long
streth and Ruth Herbert would not
be left behind. They were all leaving
| Fairdale forever. Longstreth had
turned over the whole of his property
to Morton, who was to divide it as he
and his comrades believed just.
Duane had left Falrdale with his
party by night, passed through Sander
son in the early hours Of dawn, and
reached Bradford as he had planned.
That fatal morning found Duane
Outwardly calm, but inwardly he was
in a tumult. He wanted to rush to
Val Verde. Would Captain MacNelly
be there with his rangers, US Duane
had planned for them to be? Memory
of that tawny Poggin returned with
strange passion. Duane had borne
hours and weeks and months of wait
ing. had endured the long hours of
the outlaw, but now he had no
patience. The whistle of the train
made him leap.
1t was a fast train, yet the ride
seemed slow.
Duane did not speak to LongStreth
and the passengers in the car, changed
his seat to one behind his prisoner.
The girls sat in seat near by and
were pale but comDOSed.
Duane did not speak to Longstreth
again till the train stopped at Val
Verde.
They got off the car, and the girls
followed as naturally as ordinary
travellers. The station was a good
deal larger than that at Bradford and
there was considerable action and
hustle incident to the arrival of the
train.
Duane's sweeping gaze searched
faces, rested upon man who seemed
familiar. This fellows look, too, was
that of one who knew Duane but was
waiting for q sign. a cue. Then Duane,
recognized him-MacNelly clean-shav-
en-. Without mustache he appeared
different. younger.
When MacNelly saw that Duane in
tended to greet him, hurried forward
to meet him. A keen light flashed
from his eyes. He was glad, eager,
yet suppressing himself, and the
glances he sent back and forth from
Duane to LOngstreth were questioning,
doubtful. Certainly Longstreth did
not look the part of an outlaw.
duane! Lord, I'm glad to see you"
was the Captains greeting. Then at
closer look into Duane's face his
warmth fled-something ne saw there !
checked his enthusiasm. or at least its
utterance.
"MacNelly, shake hands with Ches- |
eldine," said Duane, lOw-yoiced.
The ranger stood dumb, mOtionless. |
But he saw Longstreth's instant ac-
ton, and awkwardly he reached for
the outstretched hand.
ANY of your men down here?"
lueried Duane, sharply.
mo. They're uptown"
Come. MacNelly, you walk with
him. We've ladies in the party. III
come behind with them"
They set off uptown. Longstreth
walked as if he were with friends on
he way to dinner. The girls were
nute. MacNelly walked like man
n a trance. There was not a word
spoken in four blocks.
Presently Duane espied stone
building on a corner of the broad
street. There was big sign, Ranch
