HAZEL WALTON, whom Billy loves,
saves MIN from being shot from
ambush by
JACK MURRAY, = member of the
gang, but the lovers quarrel when
Billy refuses to avoid danger by
resigning from office.
RAFE TUCKLETON, wealthy cattle
thief. hires
DAN SLIKE, professional badman, to
.. kill Billy and
TOM WALTON, Hazels uncle and an
honest ranchman.
TOM DRIVER. local Judge, and
ARTHUR RALE, district attorney,
are partners in Tuckleton's scheme.
TIP O'GORMAN, another politician,
refuses to take part. Billy receives
note signed by Hazel requesting
him to come at once TO the Walton
ranch. He is suspicious and forces
Judge Driver to wear his clothes
and approach the house on horse
back. Billy crawls to a window
and sees Tom Walton dead on the
floor.
Go On With the Story
He continued to stare unblinkingly
into the room and after time he
made out the dim lines of another
mans figure sitting on the table be-
side one of the front windows. The
head OF this other man was turned
away from Billy. He was watching
the draw through the front window.
on account of the soft snow Billy
did not hear an approaching horse
until it had almost reached the ranch
house door, When the horse stopped
the man inside the ranch house
moved quietly to the door and stood
at one side of it. His hand moved to
his leg and came away.
Don't shoot!" he heard him say
in an agonized whisper. Don't shoot,
for Gawd's sake!"
Billy, watching at the window, saw
the man in the room fling open the
door. For an instant the tall and
hatless form of Juoge Driver showed
black against the expanse OF snow
framed in the doorway. Again came
The plea for mercy-a wild cry OF
Don't shoot, Don't shoot! It's me!

Ard will be interested to know of the sound and prosperous condi ton of the Anniston industries, which he was so largely instrumental in founding and to which he gave his active efforts up to the time of his death.

The following from The An niston Star gives an outline of the reorganization:

Bosworth, one of the leading young business men of the city, being elected as president of the two concerns. and which are to be operated on full time with 50 or more men employed at good salaries.
 "The names of the two concerns were unchanged at the meeting of the stockholders, the decision to con tinuo full operations being received with interest among the industrial people of the city.
 "The Bosworth-Ard foundry is one of the best equipped plants of it's kind in the city and the fact that it is to be continued under the per sonal direction of Mir. Bosworth will mean that the plant will continue to function as one of the leading bus inesses of the city, the same being true of the Anniston Body works. A "Other officers elected at the meet fno Cat C F nnnCh erty, vice president. and L. c. Wat son, secretary and treasurer, the name of Jesse Yates being added to the list of stockholders as the rep resentative of Mrs. Ard.

 Go Into Other S4AAcs
 Birmingham brick, tile, cement and structural steel go into the six con- tiguous and ajacent states and orders received by them reflect the activities of these states, For example, the cement mills of Birmingham, Ragland and Demopolis expect to furnish the larger portion of the 2,oO0,000 barrels of cement that will go into road con struction in Alabama and neighbor- ing states this year.
 Latest additions to the bookings of the rail mill of the Tennessee com pany are 10000 tons for the Atlantic Coast line and 10000 tons for the Imperial government of Japan, Total known bookings for 1922 delivery are over 153, 900 tons.
 Railroads seem about to raise head above the slough of despond. Freight car loads shipped during the past five weeks show an increase over the same period in 1921 of more than 160,- 900 cars. Each of the past five weeks has shown an increase. The increase is credited to a general improvement in business.
