MYSTERY, MINING, LOVE AND ROMANCE

ne stopped and Anita, laughing at her posture, cldm5ered upon
his back, her arms about his neck. Fairchad found himself IRISH
ing that he could carry her forever, and that the road to the sherifs
office were twenty miles auay instead of two. But her voice cut in
on his uishes.
Il can wak non. We can get along so much faster~ came her
plen. "IH hold on to you-and yu can help me along!"
Falrchid released her and she seized his arm. Once, as then
foundered through a kneehigh mass, FairchidS arm trent quickly
about her Uaist and he lifted her against him as he literally carried
her through. When they reached the other side, the arm still held
its phce-and she did not resist. Some uUy, after that, the stretch
of road faded sufHy. Almost before he realized it, then we're at
The outskirts Of the city.
G%rudgingly he gaze up his hold upon her, as they hurried for
the sidewahs and for the sherfs office. There Fairchi1d did not
attempt to talk-Ae left 1t all to anita, and BardweN, the sheriff,
listened.
Did you v carry a pretty girl pick-a-back7 Well, it's some
altogether adorable As is Anita, and especially when the man is a.
much interested in the girl Is il. Fairchild. And especially when tho
carrying is done in a blizzard and the a is just bound to do all he
can to help the girl along.
AS for the tale Anita and Fairchld tell the sheriH-wen, it's a
fit climax to a story of mystery, mining, love and romance in the
Colorado Rockies land where mystery, mining, love and romance
are as much a part of things as the scenery.
When Young Robert Fairchilds father-a man Of mystery, living
in fear--goes where earthly officers of the law bother no one, the hero
hnds himself the owner of a mysterious silver mine, the Blue Poppy.
With the inheritance o a feud and the opposition of a choice colec-
tin of scoundrels. Nevertheless, the hero decides to claim the mine
and work it. On the way from Denver he meets the heroine-Anta
Richmond. She is driving in a desperate hurry, just about two turns
OF the road ahead of the sheriff. Fairchid helps her change a tire,
gets a tip of ten dollars and lies like a whitehead about her to the
sheriff. Quite an interesting way of beginning an acquaintance with
the prettiest girl in town, who turns out to be engaged-so most
people think-to the ON of the chief vllian-"Squint" Rodaine.
The author? Why, Courtney Ryley Cooper-the writer of short
stories and movie scenarios. He ran away as a boy from Kansas City
to become a circus clown. Later he wrote circus advertising-no
wonder h e has n vivid imagination! Anyway, you've undoubtedly
read som of his circus stories in the m magazines and know how fas-
cnatingly he an write.

Tonight you and I will go to Indian
apolis and probate the Willis simple
enough; I've had II in my safe for ten
years. After that, you become the

a lot of money for anybody who can
produce pay ore-unless what he said
about the mine pinching out was
true"
Again the thrill of a new thing
went through Robert Fairchild's veins,
something he never had felt until
twelve hours before; again the urge
for strange places, new scenes, the
fire Of the hunt after the hidden
wealth OF silver-seamed hills. Robert
F~airchild's life had been a plodding
thing OF books and accounts, of high
desks which as yet had failed TO stoop
his shoulders, Of stuffy Offices which
had been thwarted so far in their grip
at his lung power; the long walk In
the morning and the tired trudge
homeward at night. But the recoil

conversation, he turned toward the
bookcase and unattached the paneled
door. A moment more and the hol-
lowed history had given up its trust,
a bit Of paper scratched with numbers.
Robert Fairchild turned toward the
stairs and the small room on the sec
ond floor which had served as his ia
Tiers bedroom.
There he hesitated before the little
iron safe in the corner, summOning
the courage to unlock the doors Of a
dead mans past.
The safe had not been opened in
years; that was evident from the
creaking Of the plungers as they fell,
the gummy resistance of the knob as
Fairchild turned 1t in accordance with
the directions on the paper. Finally,
a great wrench, and the bolt was
drawn grudgingly back a strong pull,
and the safe opened.
Fairchild crouched for a moment,
staring, before he reached for the
thinner Of two envelopes which lay
before him. A moment later he
Strengthened and turned toward the
light. A crinkling of paper, a quick
drawn sigh between clenched teeth /;
it was a letter: his strange, quiet,
hunted-appearing father was talking
to him through the medium of ink and
! paper, after death. He read:
My Son:
Before ] begin this letter to you I
must ask that you take no action
whatever until you have seen my at
torney-he will be yours from now on.
have never mentioned him to you
before; it was not necessary and
would only have brought you curiosity
which I could not have satisfied. But
now, l am afraid, the doors must be
unlocked. / am gone. You are young,
you have been a faithful son and you
are deserving Of every good fortune
that may possibly come to you. l am
praying that the years have made a
difference. and that Fortune may
smile upon you as she frowned on me.
Certainly. she can injure me no longer.
My race is run I am beyond earthly
fortunes.
Therefore, when you have finished
with this, take the deeds inclosed in
the larger envelope and go to st.
Louis. There, look up Henry +. Beam
ish, attorney-at-law, in the Princess
building. He will explain them to you.
Beyond this. / fear, there is little
that can aid you. / cannot find the
strength, now that I face it, to tell

smile upon my memory by never let

sort of man you have known, and not
the joyial, genial companion that a

tain things, my son, which defeat a
man. Therefore Is 1t not better that

time as Fortune may reveal it-and
hope that such a time will never
come? ! think so-not for myself, for
