CHAPTER XVIII.

It was early in the morniug. and Bin Dale had just sent fof Ben Little ford. The hillman hurried Co the of- fee, for he believed he knew what was in the air. He had already gone to work al the mine, and his thick beard, his face and his hands were black with the dust of coat.

 Then listen to this plan" said Dale.
 I'll keep By Heck up the river watching for them. He will have three sticks of dynamite tied together and capped and fitted with fuse. If he sees them coming this way in any thing Ike q force. he will fire off the dynamite as a signal 10 LIS. Our men will gather here in the upstairs of this building, and bar the doCrs-'

 "I hope they don't, certainly" smiled Dale. "Nhere are your rifles, Bn?"
 At the n,ine,e said I;trlcford. "Ye see, BIll. we've been a-iookin' fo' troubie.'
 Dale went on: "At By Heck's sig nal, I'll get on my horse and ride to the lowianGs for the Moreiands. l can

 Its good plan, reckon. :" growled Ben Littleford, 'only ] don't cotton yer easy to the idee O us a-ruRn;n' f.ol.l the mine to this here bulldin'. never did like to run from any man woth a durn, Bill"
 But that wouldn't be eowarIly." Dale protested. It would be purely a strategic move, and it would save lives for us. For. when the Balls and their kinsmen come, you'll have 10 de liver me into their hands or you'll have 10 fight like the very devil, that's sure; and, according to By Hecl1'g fig tres, they outnumber you more than two 10 one"
 Ali right" Littleford replied, with shiug Of his huge shoulders. "Whn; ever you say, that same we'll do."
 So By Heck was sent for, and short ly afterward he Sneaked into the Ian rels and went off toward the settle inent of the Balls. In the crook of his arm ke carried his rifle. and inside his shirt he carried three pieces of dynu mite all ready for the match-and he chose every step with great care for fear of iarring the explosive too much.

Ii was to be the clans last hght, and fight for good cause and every man of 1t was eager for the fray
 Bill Dale bore himself proudly, and he rode like man born to the sad dle Nc found queer ioy-a joy thar frightened his stcel-grey eyes and flushed his sunburned cheeks, 2 joy that he didn't even attempt to un.lerstand-ln the thought:

 Bill Dale rose and stood there star ing at By Heck with eyes so bright that they SParkled.

 'Ef the world was made in six days, by God, it shorely looks like By Heck could make six miles in q hour, don't it?"
 The tall hiilman left the Moreland Coal company's office with the letter in one hand, his rifle in the other, and tears of joy in his eyes.
 For Bill Dale had laughed, actually laughed.

 The Review has taken a marked in terest in reformation of the Social Evil" in number of issues of which fact I am sincerely glad.
 The reference this morning to what Judge Sanford said in the Methodist Church in Phoenix lately is particu, larly pertinent. The judge favors a Properly regulated segregated dis trict as real remedy for our exist ing social ills
 For how many generations have reg ulation and segregation been tried. and did this plan ever furnish real remedy?" Did segregation' ever seg- regate? No it never has. Listen to the tales Of our returned soldier boys if you think crime is segregated in cur towns and cities.
 I agree with the Honorable Judge that something must be done if di- sease and social evils are ever over come.
 I shall offer q few suggestions for which I offer no apology since I have been connected with the Womau's Christian Temperance Union in this work for number of years.
 First instead of licensing, make so- cial evils crime any time. any place and both men and women sent to pri- son. not allowing either any lenieucy. Make the prisons reformatory. If either is found diseased confine where it cannot be communicated but cured if possible.
 This card system. used by inmates of restricted districts can never do srD aYs sN also examined and compelled to show card. Laws should be formulated to protect women who marry diseased men. (Ne have some very inneu- oient ones) or whose husband contract a disease after marriage. She is now given a divorce. that married woman $ boon. which but agGravateS by allow. ing them both to remarry.
 Yes, close the dance halls to all persons wearing very meaSre cloth ins but in heavens name do not turn your girls. nor boys either, upon the streets" keep them at home part of the time and do not wear your selves out scolding but playing with them.
 Segregated districts but furnished a refuge for the white shaver of which the judge and others so unbmShinSly speak as if this viiest of all evils could not be prevented.
 Suppose ten or twenty thousand girls were each year stolen and sold to our southern planters to pick cot ton or carried to our city manufactur- CTS as slaves. Docs anybody think it would not be stopped and the guilty brought to justice? Our officers some Ot them, do not want white slavery stopped. Many others, citizens, do
