CHAPTER v.
The Bitter Gun.

Hardly had they topped the rise be-
when the full force of the wind caught
them. A blizzard was sweeping up,
and it grew in strength all that morn
ing, until by noon 1t was almost hur-
ricane. They pushed on doggedly I'M
til about one o'clock, avoiding the
temptation to rest at the auxiliary
caches which had been established
along this part of the road.
At one O'Clock they came to an
empty cache and horse stable, which
had been built In anticipation Of win
ter development work, and had formed
the hub of many radiating reconnois
sance roads. They had come no more
than six miles and it was still goot
fifteen into Clayton. By this time tht
blizzard had increased to an intense
violence, driving great sheets of snow
along the road. 1t was impossible t.
face such hurricane any longer.

A dozen times he had regretted hav-
ing yielded to her insistence to ac-
company him. Travelling In that
weather was hard on man, let alone
a girl such as Molly. He looked at
her In wonder as he saw her apparent
unconcern, the courage with which she
faced the difficulties Of the journey.
But his fears were conferred chiefly
on Kitty. Suppose he couldn't go on!
Suppose he couldn't be at the share
holders meeting on the morrow!
Toward the middle of the afternoon
the wind seemed to have lessened,
though the driven snow still swept In
binding clouds along the road. Il

She kissed him back. "Of course

Wilton went into the stable and
called the dogs. They were lying with
their noses together, and at his en-
trance sprang to their feet with men
acing growls. They knew very well
what bis advent portended, and it was
plain that their wolfish temper was
thoroughly aroused.
Wilton had handled a refractory
pack once before. He knew that quick
action was necessary. He stepped
forward, and, as the cleaning jaws
gaped at him, and the animals pre-
pared to spring, snarling and culver
ing with rage, he brought his whip
across the leaders nose with all his
strength.
Immediately, with maddened yells,
the pack leaped at him. Wilton swung
right and left with the whip, and then

GERMAN CROOK DUPES YANKS

The story is carried by a Brussels
newspaper of the duping Of the Ameri-

clever German crook. The story was
not confirmed by Americans at Cob
LEM.
A German prisoner Of war effected
his release from prison camp, donned
the uniform of a Belgian army major
and the name of Otto Debeny, accord
ing to the report. He presented
forged credentials at Cobienz where he
is said to have been royalty received

retreating till his back was against
the wall Of the shack, he laid about
him with the shortened stock.
With gaping jaws and wicked, blood
shot eyes, the pack came on again and
again, leaping at him, tearing at his
clothes; one sank Its fangs into his
right hand, and, as he freed himself
with smashing blow, the others were
upon him sideward.
In an instant he was struggling with
his one hand against the heavy bodies
that bore him back, shielding his
throat, thrusting the whipstock into
the red, cavernous jaws, while the an
guish from his wrenched shoulder al
most made him scream with pain.
Everything was swimming round
him. They had him down. Their bel
lowing bowls grew fainter in his ears.
Mechanically he kept his right hand
at his throat. The left, torn from the
sling, Topped grotesquely in front Of
him. He heard the click Of the fangs
that met in 1t, and felt no pain. He
was swooning.
Suddenly he heard the "snap-snap"
Of revolver. A leaping body seemed
to stop short in the air, and tumbled
on him, knocking him on his face.
Dimly he heard the discharge Of the
weapon again. And then, out of a
semi-stupor, Molly's face, and her
tears upon his cheeks.
She was kneeling beside him upon
the floor Of the stable, stanehing the
blood from his wounds with strip
torn from her petticoat. Upon the
floor lay three Of the dogs, dead. Two
more were writing and moaning In q
distant corner. Wilton looked up.
Molly bowed her face upon his and
broke into hysterical weeping. 1t was
the first sign Of weakness he had ever
seen in her. He held her III his right
arm. He saw that his blood had
stained her hands, her clothing.

Roger Sullivan, Former Engineer, Dis
abisd in World War, Successful
In Camera Work.

The fact that he was an engineer
before the war may help him to I'm
derstand the mechanism of a motion
picture camera, but the knowledge Of
proper lighting effects and other
things incident to the successful pro-
dnction of motion pictures had to be
learned by Roger Sullivan, after he
was seriously disabled In the World
war.
Sullivan was wounded while Operat-
ing with the United Naval forces in
France. After the war, young Sulli-
van found that his injuries were such
that he could not successfully "carry
on" as an engineer. Under the super
vision Of the u. S. Veterans bureau,
he entered a school of photography

during the night.
''They must have guessed that those
men meant to arrest you, or else they
heard them talking" said Molly.
| But Wilton had hurried to the horse
stalls, separated from the dog stable
| by stout door. He breathed a deep
| sigh of relief. The second sleigh was
there. For a moment the thought Of
possibilities had made his heart almost
stand still.
He came back grim and resolute.
There's something pretty deep in all
this business" he said. II know why
the men ran away. The sergeant gave
them the tip to. saw him talking to
Papillon last night. And that's the
reason why they wouldn't sleep in the
shack-because they meant to run. l
suppose the policemen were afraid
that they would make trouble, or try
| to help us. But I can't fathom 1t.
Those men acted like criminals. That's
not the way Of the police"
| He clenched his fist and swore un-
der his breath.
"I'I have those fellows broke for
this, If have to go to Ottawa" he
said. And I'm going to run down
| those breeds, If it takes me lifetime.
I tell you this, Molly: it's all bound
up with Joe in some way or other, and
Tom Bowyer's at the bottom Of It."
"But first-remember Kitty" said
Molly softly, laying her hand on Will
| tons shoulder.
Even the Slight touch made him
vince, for the pain Of his broken arm
was becoming unbearable. He realized
that in all probability he was in for a
| long spell of Illness. He knew that
the bone would have to be reset. His
head felt strangely light, and the
ground seemed to slope downhill from
him in all directions. But he shut his
teeth hard, and would not let Molly
guess. And feverish energy took
possession OF him. He must hold out
for the journey, until after the share
holders meeting-until he had told

Andersen to let those fellows go about
noon, and IN leave the revolver with

Inside the shack. they found the po-
licemeD eating their breakfast on the
floor, with the caretaker diligently
serving them. They we're still bound,
but their hands were free.
"Turn them loose at noon, Ander-
sen," Wilton said. "Give them enough
slap-bang to carry them on their way.
Just turn them loose and see that they
haven't any dangerous weapons to do
| you mischief with"
"You bet I take care for that"
grinned the Swede.
Wilton let Andersen harness the
dogs, to save his strength for the jour-
ney. In a few minutes the sled was
ready with the sleigh carrying Joe's
body attached behind, and the huskies,
harnessed, sitting docile in the snow,
awaiting the command to mush.
The sun was just showing above the
horizon when Wilton and Molly start
ed on the second stage Of their jour
ney to Clayton.

THE FLOWERS OF THE LEGION
American Daisy and French Poppy
Official Posies of Both Branches
of the Organization.

There has been some confusion in
the minds of Americans in general
as to the status of the daisy and the
poppy in connection with the Ameri'
can Legion and the American Legion
Auxiliary.
The daisy is the Legion's official
flower; the poppy is the Auxiliary's
memorial flower. The misunderstand-
ing arose in the first place, because
In it's early days the Legion did adopt
the poppy Of France as It's flower.
But at it's Kansas City convention the
American Legion adopted the daisy
as it's official flower on the grounds
that the daisy is an American flower
and the poppy Of Flanders is avail
able for use only in artificial form.
The Legion Auxiliary has taken adj
vantage Of the very fact that the poppy
is not available as real flower to buy
artificial flowers made by disabled sol
diers in hospitals. The Massachu-
sets Legion and Auxiliary netted
something over $4,000 from the sale
of artificial peoples, last winter. This
money was used to better the condi-
lions of sick and needy veterans OF
the World war.
The Legion is making every effort
to interest the children Of America In
the cultivation Of flowers by appeal
ing to their patriotism and to their
natural affection for such a flower as
the American Legion's American
daisy,

work. Young Gentry was one of the
first to present himself at the Legion
office.
During the first few hours ne was in
the flood district Gentry rescued six
persons. While swimming toward the
levee, after carrying a woman to
safety, he became entangled in a
barbed-wire fence which had come to
the surface Of the water. He called
to a companion for help, but the COM
panion was too nearly exhausted to
save him. The surging waters from
which he had saved others soon en-.
quilted him.
Mayor e. r. Cockrell of Fort Worth
urged his fellow citizens to erect a
fitting memorial to the young man
who had unselfishly given his life for
his fellow men.

he said, indicating one of the vertical

they may get tired Of standing"
He took the revolver from Molly and
slipped it into his pocket. Peters let
loose a string Of vicious oaths as An

neither man offered any resistance.

at his work with critical satisfaction.
