the statements of the young women,
after receiving identical letters from
E. NJ. WATERBURY, of Centerville,
S. D., inviting each to call at his
room at local hotel to arrange the
matter of assisting in raising funds
for the democratic national expenses.
When they arrived at the hotel they
were told their share had been ap-
portioned at $40 each. They COM

his shoulder. Pain and helpless rage burned in the deepset black eyes.
 Nothing at all. Don't you see Pm ! just taking nap?" he answered quietly.
 Curly recognized him now. The man was Soapy Stone. Little beads of precipitation stood out all over his fore head. A glance showed the reason. One of his hands was caught in a bear trap fastened to cottonwood. Its jaws held him so that he could not move
 The young man swung from the back of Keno. He found the limb of cottonwood about as thick as his forearm below the elbow. This he set close to the trap.
 "Soon as I get the lip open shove her in," he told Stone. The rescuer slipped the toes of his boots over the lower lip and caught the upper one with both hands, Slow ly the mouth of the trap opened. Stone, slipped in the wooden wedge and withdrew his crushed wrist. By great good fortune the steel had caught on the leather gauntlet he was wearing. Otherwise 1t must have mangled the arm to a pulp.
 Even now he was suffering good deal
 "You'll have to let doc look at It." Curly suggested.
 Stone agreed. Reckon I better strike for the Bar 99." His horse had disappeared, but Curly helped him to the back of Keno. Together they took the trail for the Bar 99. On the face of the wounded man gathered the moisture caused by intense paid.
 "Hard sledding, looks Hke," Curly sympathized.
 Reckon I can stand the grief,"' Stone grunted #.
 Nor did he speak again until they reached the ranch and Laura London looked at him from a frightened face.
 "What is it?" a.
 "Ran silver in. my finger, Miss Laura. Too bad to trouble you," Soapy answered with sheer on his thin lips. g
 A rider for the Bar 99 had just rid den up and Laura sent him, at once for the doctor. She led the way into the house and swiftly gathered band ages, 2 sponge and basin es wsssSr.

Sam. don't know why, but have the greatest confidence in you" the owner of the shadow explained sweetly.
 Curly smiled blandly over his shoul- der at her. "Finel That's a good up- lifting line of talk. Miss Laura. Now what is 1t I'm to do for you?"
 She blushed and laughed at the same time. Her hand came from behind her back. In it was a letter. | That's to be my pay for giving Master Sam his billy doc, Is it?"
 "How did you guess? It Is letter to Sam"
 "How did guess 1t? Shows I'm sure wiz don't it?"
 She saw her father coming and handed him the letter quickly.
 "Here Take it." A spark of mis- chief lit her eye and the dimples came ont on her cheeks. "Good-by. Curly"
Connecticut western news., 1920-02-19

"YOu know who I mean. all right. His name is Sam Cullison. And you needn't to tell me where he is. I'll find him." ..a
 T know you don't mean any harm to him." But she said it as if she were pleading with him.
 "C'rect. I don't. Can you tell me how to get to Soapy Stones ranch from here, Miss LondonY"
 She laughed. Her doubts were van- ishing like mist before the sunshine. "Good guess. At least he was there the last I heard"
 And I expect your information is pretty recent"
 That drew another little laugh, ac- companied by blush.
 Don't you think have told you enough for one day, Mir. Flandrau?'
 '"That 'Mr.' sounds too solemn. My friends call me Curly" he let her know.
 She remembered that he was a stranger and rustler and she drew up stiff1y. This pleasant young fellow was too familiar.
 "f you take this trail to the scrub pines above, then keep due north for about four miles, you'll strike the creek again. Just follow the trail along 1t to the horse ranch"
 With that she turned on her heel and walked into the kitchen.
 Curly had not meant to be fresh" He was always ready for foolery with the girls, but he was not the sort to go too far. Now he blamed himself for having moved too fast. He had of tended her sense of what was the proper thing.
 There was nothing for 1t but to sad de and take the road.

CHAPTER V.
Bad Medicine.

|
 The house at the horse ranch was a long. low L-shaped adobe structure. Two men were seated on the porch playing seven up. One was Bad Bill. the other Blackwell At sight of Curly they gave up their game
 "Bello. kid Where did you dror from?" Cranston asked
 A muscle twitched in Flandran's cheek "They got Mac Ran us down near the Circle c. Mac opened fire TEey-killed him."
 "Shot him, orr" Curly was left to guess the other halfof the question.
 "Shot him and took me prisoner"
 ''They couldn't prove thing, corld thew"
 'They could prove wounded CuIli. son. That was enough for them. They set out to hang me. Later they changed their minds"
 'How come you here? Did you es- cape"
 Nope Friends dug up bail Say. Soap has been telling me that the Gull ltsoE EiG is ID here. reckon we bet, tcr nnt say anything about my mixrr with his folks. I'm rot looking Cor any trouble with him."
 All right. Curly"
 Curly sat down Cn the porch and told cn edited story of his adventures to them. Before he had finished a young fellow rode up and dismounted. After he had unsaddled and turned his pony into a corral he joined the others on the porch.
 Young Cull.sun had seated himself in the chair next to Flandrau. He had, so Curly thought. strong family re- semblance to lis father and sister. Sill q boy In his WHY'S. he might any day receive the jolt that would trans form him into u man.
 Curly studied the characters of those present. Sill he knew already fairly wall as tough nut to crack. game to the core. and staunch to his friends. Blackwell was II had lot. treacherous. vindictive. slippery as an eel Even his confederateS did not trust him greatly. But 1t was Soapy and young Cullison that interested Flandrau most. Sam was at an i'm questionable age. inclined to be led by any man whom he admired. Curly knew that he could gain no influence over him by preaching. He had to live the rough-and-tumble life of these men who dwelt beyond the pale of the law. to excel them at the very things O. which they boasted. But In one re- spect he held himself apart. While be

at the hack of his victim. Twice the lash stung, pot hard. but with pepper enough to hurt. Each time the young man asked him 10 stop.
 Blackwell snapped the quirt once too often. When he picked himself out of the dust five seconds later he was the muddest man in Arizona. Like bull he lowered lls head and rushed. Curly side-stepped and lasbed out hard with hIs left.
 II was a sledge-hammer bout, with no rules except to hit the other man often and hard. Curly watched his chance, lodged wild swing and threw himself forward hard with his shoulder against the chest of the con vict' The .mun staggered back, tripped on the lowest step of the porch and went down hard. The fall knocked the breath out of him.
 Had enough?" demanded Curly.
 For answer Blackwell bit Flandrau's thumb savagely.
 Since you like it so we'll. have au- other taste" Curly. now thoroughly angry, sent a short-arm jolt to the mouth.
 The man underneath tried to throw him off, but Flandrau's fingers found his hairy throat and frightened.
 You're killing mel" the convict gasped.
 "EnoughT
 Yves"
 Curly stepped back quickly, ready either for knife or a gunplay. Black we'll got to his feet and went into the house, swearing to get even. Ills face was livid with fury.
 You wouldn't think little thing like whaling given fair and square would make man hold a grudge. My system has absorbed se-ve-real without doing 1t any harm" Sam stopped ts inspect rapidly discoloring eye. Say, Curly, he hung peach of a lamp on you"
 Soapy made DO comment in words, but he eNooked at Flandrau with a new respect. For the first time doubt as to the wisdom of letting him stay at the. ranch crossed his mind.

CHAPTER W.
A Bear Trap.

The winding trail led up to the scrub pines and from there north into the hills. Curly had not travelled fur when he heard the sound of gun fired three times in quick succession. He stopped to listen. Presently there came n faint call for help.
 Curly cantered around the shoulder of the hill and saw man squatting on the ground. He was stopped for ward in an awkward fashion with his back to Flandrau.
 What's up?"
 At the question the man looked over
