In three days Duane was able with
great difficulty to mount his horse.
During daylight, by short relays, he
and Jennie rode back TO the main
trail, where they hid again till he had
rested. Then In the dark they rode
out Of the canyons and gullies OF the
Rim Rock, and early in the morning
halted ut the first water to camp.
From that point they Travelled after
nightfall and went into hiding during
the day. Once across the Nueces
River, Duane was assured of safety
for her and great danger for himself.
At last, far ahead over q barren mes
quite-dotted stretch of dusty ground,
he espied a patch Of green and a little
fat, red ranch.house. He headed his
horse for It and turned a face he tried
to make cheerful for Jennle's sake.
She seemed both happy and sorry.
When near at hand he saw that the
rancher was a thrifty farmer. And
thrift spoke for honesty. There were
fields of alfalfa, fruit-trees, corrals,
windmill pumps, irrigation-ditches. all

lane he turned his head to peer
through the cottonwoods. This time
ne saw Euchre coming with the horses.
There was no indication that the old
outlaw might lose his nerve ut the end.
Duane had feared this.
Duane now changed his walk to a
~ieisurely saunter. He reached the
porch and then distinguished what was
said inside the cabin.

Duane bounded down to the horses.
Jennie was trying to hold the plunging

He caught his bride out OF Euchre's

cabins. He heard shouts. But there
were no shots fired. Jennie seemed

that Duane rode closer and reached
out to grasp her arm.
Thus they rode through the valley
to the trail that led up over the steep
and broken Rim Rock. As they be-
gan to climb Duane looked back. No

he cried. %exultation for her In his
voice.
She was gazing horror-stricken Mt
his breast, Us In turning to look back
he faced her.
"Oh. Duane, your shirts all bloody I"
she faltered, pointing with trembling
fingers.
With her words Duane became
aware OF two t~hings--the hand he in
stlnctively placed to his breast still
held his gun, and he had been shot
| through the breast far enough down
to give him grave apprehension Of his
life.
They did not stop climbing while
Duane tore a scarf and made cor
presses. which he bound tightly over
his wounds. The fresh horses made
fast time up the rough trail. From
open places Duane looked down. When
they surmounted the steep ascent and
stood on top Of the Rim Rock. with
no signs Of pursuit down In the valley,
and with the wild broken fastness
before them. Duane turned to the girl
and assured her that they now had
every chance to escape.
"But-your-woundv" she faltered,
with dark. troubled eyes. 81 see-the
blood-dripping from your back!
"Jennie. I'll take q lot Of killing"
| he said.
Then he became silent and attended
to the lever trail. He was aware
presently that he had not come into
BANDS camp by this route. But that
did not matter; any trail leading out
beyond the Rim Rock was safe enough.
| What he wanted was to get far away
into some wild retreat where he could
hide till he recovered from his wound.
So he turned OF on a trail that ap-
peared seldom Travelled.
Soon after this move he became o n
scious of n further thickening Of his
senses. He felt able to hold on to his
saddle for a while longer, but he was
failing. Then he thought he ought to
advise Jennie, so In case she was left
clone she would have some idea Of
what to do.
"Jennle, I'll give out soon," he said.
"No-I don't mean--what you think.

Duane could not get the meaning Of
her incoherent reply. He rode on, and
soon he could not see the trail or hear
his horse. lie did not know whether
they Travelled a mile or many times
that far. But he was conscious when
the horse stopped, and had a vague
sense of falling and feeling Jennie's
arms before all became dark to him.
When consciousness returned he

Dear Sir: A disappointing feature
of the public hearing on Wednesday
before the food commissioner to look
into the milk situation IN Honolulu
was the absence of all represents
tiyes of the numbers of intelligent,
earnest women here, " 10 are dev9t-

ship that would be caused here in our
city to the babies and children of the
poor and the additional burden Of cost
to all small consumers by an uniusti-
fable increase in the price OF milk.
Three women appeared at the meet
ing but did not stay long enough to
become informed and took no part in
the discussion, though It would seeul
to be function where knitting or Red
Cross work could have been pursued
without detriment to the business in
hand.
It's easier for all of us to construe
our patriotism along lines OF the most
popular movement. We all need the
crowd contagion" but are content to
leave to the commissioners alone tile
humdrum task OF lowering the price
of milk one cent a quart.
Doubtless it is a system of our
American laissez faire which has left
our country open to the charge of be.
ing the most fragrant offender among
the nations in corruption and graft in
public life and in the exploitation Of
the necessities of life.
Yours very truly,
