There are seven or eight versions
CT this famous ballad, generally written
just as the writers remembered to have
heard their grandfathcrs or grand
mothers sing, or repeat 1t, good many
years ago.
The name and the residence Of the
author Of this famous poem arc alike
unknown. The Stebbins History says
that Nathan Torrey has the honor Of
authorship, II any reliance can be
placed upon the most direct and au-
thentic tradition on the subject" Tho
grave Of the unfortunate young man
Is in the Deacon Adams Cemetery, Will
brahau,, Mass, near the casterly part
of the older portion. His epitsph reads:

The Last 10 Find Jobs
Those Who Can't Tackle the Woo

pile, but Are in Desperate Need
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir; Certain experts on panhandlers
and the unemployed in general are
telling US that the woodpile s the acid
test for sob hunters" This may be so
for husky, woll-fed men; but the test
falls down when it is applied to thin
blooded, an@mic men and those who
have been suffering from influenza and
pneumonia, and there are more such
than The experts" seem to know about.
Unemployment conditions are slowly
improving, but for the most part re-
employment affects principally the
skilled workers and those who make
the best appearance in the mob sur
rounding the factory door when adver-
tisements for help are printed; the
weaker-bodied, understood and the
crippled have no chance st all. Fur
thermore, the latter will be the last to
lind Jobs, and the effects of unemploy-
ment will be felt among them most
keeuly for some time to come.
The peak of unemployment may have
been passed, but tho peak of suffering
for this group is still ahead, the next
two months probably being the most
severe for chem, because their earn
ings have been spent snd they have
reached the end OF everything. The
unemployed Of this type are not in
vading the churches as they did in
1914, probably because they have
learned that parades and mass meet
ings do not get them Jobs.
There is another group that the ex-
pert on parilandlers has not touched
the scmi-professional men, who In
many industrial enterprises are re-
garded as luxuries, because they do
not Immediately produce; ss, for ex-
ample, chemists, engineers and men
of similar occupations serving mostly
In consultative capacity. These do
not hang around bread lines, and they
arc TOO proud to ask for help from any
body.
Then there arc the gentlcwomen who
have never been out Of work. There
came into my Office recently the widow
of former Assistant District Attor.

raised at Newport, and had about her
all thc signs Of culture-at least in her

Unemployment Sunday which way

City Oh March u at the suggestion Of
the New York Federation Of Churches,

part OF the church members and q
sense Of their responsibility toward the

Belding cursed low and deep in his
throat, and the sound resembled NUT
tering thunder. The shade Of anxiety
on his face changed to one of dark
gloom and passion. Next to his wife
and daughter there was nothing 50
dear to him as his white horses. His
father and his grandfather-all his
progenitors of whom he had trace
had been lovers Of horses. 1t was In
Belongs blood.

CHAPTER VII
White Horses.

- "A crippled Yaqui! Why the hi did
you saddle yourself with him?" roared
Belding, as he laid Gale upon the bed.
Belding had grown hard these late,
violent weeks.
because I chose" whispered Gale,
in reply. "Go after him-he dropped
In the trail-across the sriver-near
the first big saguaro."
"Sure, Dick, sure" Bedding replied,
in softer tones. Then he stalked
out: his heels rang on the flagstones;
he opened door and called: Mother
girls, here's Dick back. He's done
ND. . Do what you can to make
him comfortable. I've got little job
on hand"
Gale slept twenty hours. Then he
arose, thirsty, hungry, lame, over
worn, and presently went in search
of Belding and the business of the
day.
"Your Yaqui was near dead, but
guess Well pull him through" A,id
Bedding.
Gale told of his experience at Papa
go we'll.
"That raider who tried to grind the
Yauui under q horses hoOfs-he was
a hyenav' concluded Gale, shuddering.
'I've seen some blood spilled and some
hard sights, but that inhuman devil took
my nerve. Why, as told you, Beld-
ing, I missed shot at him-nOt
twenty paces!"
"Dick, in cases like that the sooner
you clean up the bunch the BETTER"
said Bedding, grimly. "As for hard
sights-wait till you've seen a Yaqui
do up Mexican. Bar none, that is
the limit! Dick, If Pm not mistaken,
this fellow was q chief. 1t was
waste Of strength, needless risk for
you to save him, pack him back here:
But, d-n the whole Greaser outfit
generally, I'm glad you did,"
Gale remembered then to speak of
his concern for Ladd.
j 'Laddy didn't 60 out to meet you,"
replied Bedding. II knew you were
due in any day, and. as there's been
trouble between here and Casita, I
sent him that way. Since you've been

ers had at Papago well?" u g.
Dick had learned since he had be
come a ranger, to sac everything with
keen, sure, Photographic eye; and, be-
ing put to the test so often requiredso OF
him, he Edescribed the horses sas a

Forlorn River; and, besides, Elsie had
written that her father had stormed
over what he considered Dicks falling
into wild and evil ways.

Thorne will be free before long, and
he'll be coming out. wonder If he'll
stay here or try to take Mercedes
away?"
"Well, he'll stay right here in For
lorn River, if have any say" replied
Bedding. I'D like to know how he'd
ever get that Spanish girl out OF the
country now, with all the trails over
run by rebels and raiders. It'd be
hard to disguise her. Say, Dick, may
be we can get Thorne to stay here.
You know, since you've discovered
the possibility of a big water supply,
I've had dreams Of future for For
lorn River. .. If only this war
was overt"
The discovery that Bedding alluded
to was one that might very well lead
to the making of wonderful and
agricultural district of Altar valley.
While in college Dick Gale had studied
engineering, but he had not set the
scientific world afire with his bril-
lance. Nevertheless, his smatterlng
of engineering skill bore fruit in the
last place on earth where anything
might have been expected Of it-in
the desert. Gale had always Won
dered about the source Of Forlorn
River. He had discovered long, mar
row, rock-bottomed and rock-walled
gulch that could be damned at the
lower end by the dynamiting OF lean
ing cliffs above. An inexhaustible
supply of water could be stored there.
Furthermore, he had worked out an
irrigation plan to bring the water
down for mining uses, and to make
paradise out Of that part Of Altar
valley which lay in the United States.
Bedding claimed there was gold In the
arroyos, gold in the gulches, not in
quantities to make prospector re-
joice, but enough to work for. And
the soil on the higher levels; of Altar
valley needed only water to make 1t
grow anything the year round Gale,
too, had come to have dreams OF
future for Forlorn River.
On the afternoon Of the following
day Ladd Unexpectedly appeared lead
ing lame and lathered horse into the
yard. The legs Of the horse were raw
and red, and he seemed about to drop.
Ladd's sOmbrerO was missing; he
wore a bloody scarf round his head; ;
sweat and blood and dust had formed
a crust on his face; little streams OF
powdery dust slid from him; and the
lower half Of his Scared chaps were
full Of broken white thorns.
"Howdy, boys" he drawled. II

"Laddy, go in the house to the
women" said Bedding. "I'll tend to
