finger prints on the blank) and must

With her coat off she looked worse
than with it on. High collars did not
suit Miriam's short, plump neck, and
she looked choky and uncomfortable
John felt somehow as if a trick were

Pertaining as ever, albeit not SO good

daughter and hold her for a million

He pulled his coat aside that the
woman might see his gun. AS he did
go he glanced up the trail and saw the
married daughter and her husband
seated on a rock. Their interest was
SO evident that the outlaw nearly for
got his fear-inspiring pose. To save
the situation he turned hastily to the
girl. Get up" he commanded, ignor-
ing the mother, whose screams were
taking on triumphant note of under
standing.
The girl proved to be perfectly at
home In the saddle and for time it
looked as If she had a chance to
escape by racing away from her cap

Suddenly the watcher stiffened and
raised his glasses as a party Of four
came into view around the point. One
look caused his Incidence TO vanish.
They're coming" he remarked TO his
horse, and swung into the saddle.
Quieting his nervous mount, he
watched the approaching party with a
queer, strained expression upon his
face. His gaze passed over the man
in the lead and also sighted the ma
tronly young woman who followed
him. He glared for a moment at the
angular, middle-aged woman who was
next in the file, then fastening gloat-

dancing figure in the rear.

His seriousness was enough to quiet
any remonstrance on the part of the
girl Again she forced her horse into
the long. pounding gallop. The out
law was worried, and as they neared
the outskirts of Pasadena, he threw
many anxious gfances back up the
