Many folk who live in town and who
can keep chickens without annoyance

Once through Templeaux and on the main road for Peronne things be came less exciting and we drew up to see a column of 300 prisoners pass Us. Each side of the causewny was lined by Australians, with their keen, clear-cut, falcon faces, and between lurched these heaVy-jawed, beetle browed, uncouth louts, new-caught and staring round with bewildered eyes at their debonnaire captors. I saw none of that relief at getting out of it which I have read of; nor did I see any signs of fear, but the prevailing impression was an oxlike stoIidity and dullness. It was herd of beasts, not a procession of men. It was indeed farcica1 to think that these uniformed pumpkins represented the great mill tary nation, while the gallant figures who lined the road belonged to the race which they had despised as be- ing unwarlike.

CHAPTER XXVIIi.
A Discovery,

The murder of Maldonado shook the camp next morning. Three rurales, in brilliant trappings, rode up to Rick ards ramada. The leader, entering the office, announced that they were on the track of a criminal, the mur- derer of a rurale. Maldonado. He was an Indian named Felipe. He repeated the story Rickard had heard before. Would the senor give his respected permission for notices to be posted about the camp? A description of the Indian, a reward for his capture; the favor would be inestimable.
 Rickard saw the notice later that day. It was nailed to the back plat form of the Palmyra. He was on Mar shaIl's trail, his chief having failed to keep an appointment with him. They were to test the gate that afternoon i; Marshall was returning soon to Tue son.
 Rickard turned back toward camp, deep in thought; so intent that sharp cry had lost its echo before the import came to him. He stopped, hearing run ming steps behind him. Innes Hardin was Ioping up the bank like young deer, with terror in her eyes.
 "Mr. Rickard :" she cried. "Mr. Rickard !''

The Walk Home

The Walk Home
 Claudia Marshall sat at the head of her stately table in the Palmyra, mute as a statue but for the burning eyes which followed her Tod. To Innes, her guest, it was a tragic presence, of breeding solicitude.
 Late hours, excitement might ahridge the life she so passlonately policed; but she would not demand the sacrifice of his cigar.
 MarshalI's cigar followed the coffee. Tony. the whIte-capped Italian cook of the Palmyra, was removing the cups. Innes was carrying her double inter est, listening to Tod Alarshall's broad sweep, getting new viewpoint as he minimized the local scheme-feeIing that silent presence at the head of the table.
 Then something drove Claudia from her mind. What MT. Marshall had said swept a disturbing calcium on Tom. What if, truly, the river fasco could be traced to that overzealOus hand? To Tom, this undertaking plotted out the rest of related big endeavor; but that was not the way her host was looking Ut It. 4lG ffdS lOO @OuI LEOuS u give her discomfort; he had not said 1t di- rectly.

The dredge fiasco-the wild night at the levee-no isolated accidents those. Hardin's luck!
 A flush of miserable shame came to her. How they had all been trying to spare her-Eduardo, these kindly Mar shalls-MacLean! She was turning, impulsively, to ask Tod Marshall if he thought, could he think 1t probable that they would fail, when a step that sent the blood to her face took the cars stairs at two leaps Now, fn- deed, the dinner was spoiled.
 That's Rickard. I forgot to tell you that I asked him to dinner. He couldn't get away. He said he'd run in for cof- fee. Hello, Rickard. Thought you'd forgotten us!"
 She hadn't thought of that contin- gency! She found herself shaking hands with him. Could he not hear her mind. ticking away at the Maldonado episode?
 Of course he would insist on seeing her to her tent PunctiliOus, always. Well, she just wouldn't. Perhaps she could slip out some way. She would watch her chance.
 "Can talk shop for while?" asked Rlckard.
 They withdrew to a cushioned win dow seat. Innes had found her chance. She asked to be shown over the car. Jnnes confided her plan. She wanted

to slip out. "She would not interrupt their evening; Mir. Marshall had busi- ness to discuss-''
 Mrs. Marshall would not hear of 1t. She said that Mir. Marshall would never forgive her if she let Miss liar din go home alone. Her opposition was softly implacable.
 Innes went back to the sitting room of the car angrfly coerced. Rickard was still closeted, conversationally, with his superior.
 At last, desperately, she rose to go. Of course, he must insist upon going with her. Of course!
