Mrs. Mary Santore. mother OF JOS
cph Santore, alias "Joe the BOOB,

The woman ran from the courtroom.

lapsed. She was revived by court at
tendnnts.
Mrs. Santore pleaded with the Court
for leniency for her son, but she could
offer little evidence TO back up the plea.
Daniel J. Shern, counsel for Santore..
said he was easily led by others. which
gained him the name of Joe the Boob. y
Shern reminded the Court that Santore
surrendered Of his own volition and
made no attempt to place technicalities
in the way Of the conviction.
Cousin Of Joe Bollona
Mr.. Shern said that santore was a
cousin Of Joe Bollona, now serving n
sentence for drug selling in Moyamen-
sing Prison. He gave letter to Judge
McDevitt from Bollona in which the
lntter said Santore was not to blame
for selling drugs, engaging in the traffic
at the behcst of others. Bollona also
said in the letter that he was to blame
for the plight Of Santore.
In reviewing the record Of Santore

that the prisoner frequently had been
in contact with the police.

you've made a friend" continued
Bedding. "a Yaqui could be real
friend on this desert. If he gets his
strength back he'll be of service to
you, don't mistake me. He's welcome
here. But you're responsible for him,
and you'll have trouble keeping him
from massacring all the Greasers in
Forlorn River"
The probability of visit from the
raiders, and dash holder than usual
on the outskirts of a ranch, led Beld-
ing to build new corral. 1t was not
slightly to the eye, but it was high and
exceedingly strong. The gate was a
massive affair, swinging on huge
hinges and fastening with heavy
chains and padlocks,
At night Bedding locked his white
horses in this corral. The Papago
herdsmen slept in the adobe shed ad-
joining. Bedding did not imagine that
any wooden fence, however substan-
TALLY built, could keep determined
raiders from breaking 1t down. They
would have to take time, however, and
make considerable noise; and Bedding
relied on these facts. Bedding did not
believe band Of night raiders would
hold out against hot rifle fire. Ladd
did not share Belongs sanguine
hopes.
One January morning Dick Gale
was awakened by a shrill, menacing
cry. He leaped up bewildered and
frightened. He heard Belongs BOOM
ing voice answering shouts, and rapid
steps on flagstones. But these had not
awakened him. Heavy breaths, almost
sobs, seemed at his very door. In
the cold and gray dawn Dick saw
something white. Gun In hand, he
bounded across the room. Just out
side his door stood Blanco Sol
It was not unusual for Sol to come
poking his head In at Dicks door dur
ing daylight. But now in the early
dawn, when he had been locked in
the corral, 1t meant raiders-no less.
Dick called softly to the snorting
horse; and, hurriedly getting into
clothes and boots, he went out with a
gun in each hand. Sol was quivering In
every muscle. Like dog he followed
Dick around the house. Hearing
shouts in the direction Of the corrals,
Gale bent swift steps that way.
He caught up with Jim Lash, who
was also leading a white horse.
They reached the corral to find

man. The gate was open, the corral

CHAPTER VII.-continued.

A great fenced field of velvety green
alfalfa furnished a rich background
for the drove of about twenty white
horses. Blanco DiablO was the only
one in the field that was not free to
roam and Craze where he listed. A
stake and a halter held him to one
corner, where he was severely let
alone by the other horses. He did not
like this isolation. Blanco Diablo was
not happy unless he was running, or
fighting a rival. OF the two he would
rather fight. If anything white could
resemble a devil, this horse surely
did. He had nothing beautiful about
him, yet he drew the gaze and held
it. The look of him suggested dis
content, anger, revolt, viciousness
When he was not grazing or prancing,
he held his long, lean head level, point
ing his nose and showing his teeth.
Belongs favorite was almost all the
world to him, and he swore Diablo
could stand more heat and thirst and
cactus than any other horse he owned
and could run down and kill any
horse In the Southwest,
The cowboys admitted some Of
Belongs claims for Diablo, but they
gave loyal and unshakable allegiance
to Blanco Sol. AS for Dick, he had
to fight himself to keep out Of argu-
ments, for he sometimes imagined he
was unreasonable about the horse
Though he could not understand him

loved a friend, a brother. Free Of

Reduced amount of tax money col

their destruction Of injurious insects.
Leading an active life, they require
