shot again in the gray morning light
from the hot muzzle. The rifle fell
away from the shoulder. The black
speck running toward the ranchhouse
stumbled, as if stricken by On ak, and
sprawled headlong on the trail. Throw

Spain held the rifle back to his cheek.
He did not fire. Second after Sec
ond he waited. Nan watched the rife
slowly come down, unfred, and saw
his drawn face slowly relax. Without
taking his eyes off the sprawling
speck, he rose stiffly to his feet. As If
In dream she saw his hand stretched
toward her and heard, as he looked
across the far gulf, one word: "Come !"
They reached the end Of the trail.
De Spain, rifle in hand, looked back.
The sun, bursting in splendor across
the great desert, splashed the valley
and the low-lying ridge with ribboned
gold. Farther up the gap horsemen,
stirred by the firing, were riding rap
idly down toward Sassoon's ranch
house. But the black thing In tn
sunshine lay quite still.

The fire came steadily back, and de.
liberately, without the least intimation
Of being affected by De Spain's return
She had never before seen a man
shooting to kill another. The very
horror Of watching De Spain, at bay
among the rocks, fascinated her. Since
the FIRST day they had met she had
hardly seen rifle in his hands. She
strove to look. The butt of the heat
ing rifle lay close against the red
marked cheek she knew so well, and
to the tips of the fingers every par
ticle of the mans being was alive
with strength and resource. Some
strange fascination drew her senses
out toward him as he knelt and threw
shot after shot at the distant figure
hidden on the ridge. She held out
her arms and clasped her hands
toward him in an act Of devotion
Then, while she looked, breathlessly
he took his eyes an instant from the
sights. "He's running" exclaimed Dc
Spain as the rifle butt went instantly
back to his cheek. "Whoever he Is
God help him now"
Inc words were more fearful to
Nan than an imprecation. He had
lriven his enemy from the scant cover
IF rut in the trail, and the man was
fleeing for new cover and for life.
Bullet after bullet pitilcssly led the
escaping wretch. Suddenly De Spain
Ierked the rifle from his cheek, threw
pack his head, and swept his left hand
across his straining eyes. Once more
the rifle came up to place and flame

CHAPTER XIV.
Lefever to the Rescue.


Lefever, chatting in the aspen grove
Under the restraint Of waiting in the
storm, was ready long before daylight
to break orders and ride in to find
De Spain.
With the first peep Of dawn, and
with hio men facing him in their sad
dies. Lefever made short explanation.
II don't want any man to go into the
gap with me this morning under any
misunderstanding or any false pre-.
tense" he began cheerfully. "Bob
Scott and Bull will stay right here. If,
by any chance, De Spain makes hia
way out while the rest Of us are hunt
ing for him, you'll be here to signal US
three shots, Bob-or to ride in with
De Spain to help carry the rest of us
out. Now, it's like this" he added, adj
dressing the others. "You, all Of you
know, or ought to know-everybody
'twixt here and the railroad knows
that De Spain and Nan Morgan have
fastened up to each other for the long
ride down the dusty trail together.
That, I take it, is their business. But
her uncle, old Duke and Gale, and the
whole bunch, hear, turned dead sore
on it, and have fixed it up to beat them.
You all know the Morgans. They're
some bunch-and they stick for one
another like hornets, and all hold to-
gether in a fight. So I don't want any
man to ride in there with me thinking
he's going to wedding. He isn't. He
may or may not be going to a funeral
but he's not going to a shivaree."
Frank Elpaso glanced sourly at his
companions. II guess everybody here
Is wise, john"
II know you are, Frank" retorted
Lefever testify; "that's all right. I'm
only explaining. And don't want you
to get sore on me If don't show you
a fight" Frank Elpaso grunted. II
am under ORDERS" John waved his
hand. sand can't do anything
"But talk" growled Frank Elpaso.
not waving his hand.
Lefever started hotly forward in his
saddle. "Now look here, Frank" He
pointed his finger at the Directing
ranger. "Tm here for business, not for
pleasure. Any time I'm free you can
talk to me"

NERVOUS WRECK
NOW LIVE WIRE
Makes Everybody Sit Up
and Take Notice

| One of OUR big league ball players had
been going back for some lime, no matter
how hard he tried he could not get his
old time pep and ginger into the game
+, 1t was uphill work all the time. He was
one of those honest, hard working fell
lows, and it finally got his goat, mis-
nerves went bad, he commenced to run
down, could not eat or sleep and kept
steadily slipping. Doctors and medicines
were of no help.
One of his many admirers said to him;
"Why not try Phosphated Iron; every
body is boosting it"
Grasping at the last straw, the poor
fellow took a try at it. The way he
came back was an EYE opener" He WAS
there in every department of the game,
his nerves were like iron, he could hit the
ball and was no time getting back to
the three hundred mark, while his base
running and fielding were great.
Discussing the matter with our report
er, he said: would you believe it, ]
could feel the Iron charging my blood
with health and strength, while the way
the Phosphates steadied and renewed my
nerve force was almost too good to be-
lieve. Phosphated Iron took hold of me
right from the start and sure did make a
new man of me, and you ean bet | carry
a good supply on all my trips"
Doctors will tell you that you must
have plenty of Iron and Phosphates in
youn system if you want pure red blood
and steady nerves of iron. Everyone
who is run down, nervous, tired and has
that "all in feeling should try Phos-
phated Iron and you will never be with
out it again.

INTEREST
FARMERS
TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

INDIANAPOLIS. Dec eff. z. Barn
ard. federal food administrator for In
diana, made some interesting rulings in
letter which he wrote Wednesday
to A. II. Perfect & Co, wholesale gro
GERS. at Fort Wayne. The firm wrote
Barnard asking two questions. One
was whether, under he~1aw, farmer
had the right TO store wheat in n MIL
and then take ont enough -four TO last
hts family throughout the entire sea
son. a part at a time. The other ques-
tion was whether q farmer had the
right 10 pack down sufficient meat to
meet the requirements of his family
for the entire season.
IN answer, Barnard said that the
farmer had no right to deposit wheat
N a mill and then take out from time
to time nour to run his family through
the season. lie said the farmer must
sell his wheat and then buy his -four
like other people. He said, also, that
no farmer is allowed to have on hand
al any one time more than one barrel
of -four, and that city and town fam
lilies are limited to one 25-pound sack
at time.
on the meat question, Barnard held
that a farmer has the right, under the
law. to butcher his own cattle or hogs
and pack down sufficient meat for the
use of his family for the season. but
that he is not allowed to hoard more
than Will be required for this purpose
Barnard also sent letter to William
Binford. an eccentric farmer in Boone
county Binford owns 500 acres of the
finest land in that county. but he re-
fuses to farm it or to rent It for cul-
tivation unless he can get an exorbi-
tant rental for II. He has demanded
as much as $40 an acre rental. 1t was
also reported to Barnard that Binford
was holding 5000 bushels OF corn that
was in danger or spelling. He wrote
Binford that he must either cultivate
his land or allow some one else to euI-
tivate it, for he said mo land will be
allowed to lie idle il It VIII produce

if he was holding corn that was in
danger Of spelling he was violating
the law and was liable to heavy pun
ishment.

SUMMARY OF
SHIP EXPLOSION

Hundreds of persons are report
ed killed and more than a thou
sand injured in the explosion that
followed the collision between an
American ammunition ship and a
British vessel in Rockingham bay,
Halifax harbor, Novia Scotia, to-
day.
The city is cut off from tele-
graphic or telephonic communica-
ton. Railways have rushed spe-
cial trains bearing fire apparatus,
nurses, physicians, medical sup
plies and food. Communication is
possible only by messenger.
One report said the bodies of rs
railroad men had been picked up
between Deepwater and Rich
mond. Richmond is directly across
the narrow arm of water on which
Halifax fronts.
At Truro, the most successful
point of communication with the
stricken city, it was said the death
list would total 800.
Immediately after the collision
the ammunition ship caught fire,
one report said. Efforts of the
crew to extinguish the flames and
save the ship were futile. She
blew up with a report that shook
cities 100 miles away.
Blazing ammunition shot into
the air and sprinkled terminals
and houses nearby. Docks were
shattered.
Telegraph wires failed immedi-
ately after the brief report of the
disaster had been flashed
