her cousin were to have been met at
Portal City by somebody she called
Cousin Basil" but there wouldn't be
any scare, because she had written
ahead to say that possibly they might

the apple towns.
Then Mr.. NorcrOss said he wouldn't

that two Of the bandits had been LETT
behind. These two reset the switches
for the main track, leaving everything
as they had found it. and then
crossed over to the auto.
l was just thinking that all this
mystery and kidnapping and gun play
must be sort of hard on the young
woman and the girl, but, though my

a little and smuggling up just grain

Jimmie, are you man enough to go

said was; but didn't add what
I thought-that it would probably be
a case of double suicide for us two to
90 up against pair of armed thugs
with our bare hands. The young wo-
man put in her word.
"You mustn't think of doing such
thing!" she protested; and she was
still telling him all the different rea-
sons why he mustn't, when we heard
the creak and grind Of the stolen en-
CINE coming back down the old spur.
After that there was nothing to do
but to wait and see what was going
to happen next. What did happen was
as blind as all the rest. The engine
was stopped somewhere in the gulch
back Of us and out Of sight from our
hiding-place, and pretty soon the two
men who had gone with her came hur-
rying across out Of the hill shadows.

ute or two later they had climbed
into the machine, the motor had sput-
tered, and the car was gone.

had whipped the young woman over
the big footing timber. to standing
place under the tank among the
braces, and I had done the same for
the girl.
What followed was as mysterious
as chapter out Of an Anna Katherine
Green detective story. After doing
something to the switch Of the unused
spur track, the four men separated. One
of them went back to the auto, and
the other three walked down the main
track to the lower switch Of the short
siding, which was on the same side Of
The main line as the spur. Here the
fourth man rejoined them, and the
girl ut my elbow told US what he had
gone back to the car for.
HE has lighted red lantern" she
whispered. II saw it when he took
it out Of the auto"
I guess it was pretty plain to all Of
US by this time that there was some
thing decidedly crooked on the cards,
but II we had known what it was, we
couldn't very well have done anything
TO prevent it. There were only two
Of US men to their four; and, besides,
there wasn't any time. The lantern.
carrying man had barely reached the
lower switch when we heard the whis-
tie of locomotive. There was train
coming from the west, and a few Sec
onds later an electric headlight showed
up on the long tangent beyond the
siding.
1t was a bandit hold-up, all right.
One of the men stood on the track
waving the red lantern; we could see
him plainly in the glare Of the head
light. There wasn't much Of a scrap.
There were two or three pistol shots.
and then, as near as we could make
out the hold-up mep, or some of them,
climbed into the engine.
Before you could count ten they had
made n flying switch with the single
car, kicking it in on the siding. Before
the car had come fully to stop, the
engine was switched in behind it, cou-
pied on, and the reversed train, with
the engine pushing the car, ratified
away on the old spur that led off into
the hills; clattered away and was lost
to sight and hearing in less than a
! minute.
1t was not until after the train was
switched and gone th0t we discovered

huttered, taking the blame as II she
had been the one to head the process

The boss said there wasn't, and
know the only reason why he didn't

he was too much Of a gentleman to
say them in the presence Of a couple
Of women.
So far as we could see. the surs
roundings consisted Of a short side
track, spur running of into the hills
and the water tank. The siding
switches had no lights, which argued
that there wasn't even a pump-man at
the tank-as there was not, the tank
being filed automatically BY a gravity
pipe line running back to a natural
reservoir In the mountains.
By this time the boss was beginning
to get little better grip on himself
and he laughed.
"We've all earned the leather medal,
I guess" he chuckled. "It's done now.
