which he took from his pocket
The note reat.
MISS JOYCE:
IL Your athet3 has been hurt IA the
FIRE. This man VIII taxa you 10
him. DAVE SANDERS
Joyce wentSwhite 10 the lips and
/ caught at the table to steady her
self. "Is-is he badly hurt7" she
asked.
The man took refuge In ignor-
ance, as Mezicans do when they do
not want TO talk.
Soon they were on che road
Keith riding behind his sister and
clinging 70 hersWaist.
For IN hour they logged along
the dusty ROAD. which led to the
new oil field, then swung to tina
right into thellow foothills.
rs he here7" asked Joyce
breathlessly.
The man pointed TO a one-room
shack huddled on the hillside.
Keith hadsfallen sound asleep,
his head against the girls back.
Don't wake him when you lift
HIM down." she told the man. "1'll
just let him sleep If he will"
Joyce ran toward the shack.
There was no light In It, no sign OF
life about the place. She could not
understand this.
Her heart lost a beat. TIE
shadow Of some horrible thing was
creeping over her life. Was her
father dead? What shock was
awaiting her in the cabin?
Father" she whispered, and
moved forward.
A hand fell on her wrist and
closed, the fingers like bands of
iron. Joyce screamed wildly, her
nerve swept away In a reaction Of
terror. She fought like a wildcat
twisting and writhing with all her
supple strength to break the grip
on. her arm.
For she knew now what the evil
was that had been tolling a bell Of
warning in her heart.
CHAPTER XIV
The change in the wind had cost
three lives, but It had saved the
Jackpot property and the feed OF
the range.
For several minutes the creak-
ing OF awagon working up an i'm
proytsed road had been heard. Now
It moved into sight. Tho teamster
called to Crawford.
Here's another load Of grub,
boss. Miss Joyce she rustled up
them canteens you was asktn' for"
Crawford stepped over to the
wagon. Don't reckon .we'll need
tho canteens, Hank, but we can
use the grub fine. The fires about
out.
That's bully. Say, / got news
for you. Mr.. Crawford. Brad
Steelman's dead. They found him
IN his house, shot plumb through
tho head"
sWho killed HING"
Soma folks was guessin' that
mebbe Dug Doble could tell"
A question brought his mind
back to the present. The teamster
was talking: ........so she started
pronto. I s'pose you wasn't as bad
hurt as Sanders figured"
Whats that?" asked Crawford.
II was sayin' Miss Joyce she
started right away when the note
come from Sanders"
What note?"
1.-THE one tellin' how you was
hurt in the fire.
Crawford turned. Come here

The dense cloud lifted for a
moment. swept away BY an an
;cnrrent. To the fire-aghters that
glimpse Of the landscape told an
appalling fact. The demon had
escaped below from San Jacinto
Canon and been swept westward
BY 9 slant of wind withsthe speed
OF an express train. They were
trapped by tie back-flre In "a laby-
rtnth from which appeared no es-
cape. Every path OF exit was
blocked. The flames had leaped
from hilltop to hilltop.
Daye.spoke quietly. we've got
9 chance II we keep our heads.
There's an old mining tunnel here
aboutB. Follow me, and stay to-
kgether."
The tunnel was a shallow one In
the hillside. Dave stood aside and
counted the men as they passed In.
Their place OF refuge was pack
ed with smoke. A tree crashed
down at the mounth and presently
q second one. These. blazing, sent
mora heat In; to cook the tortured
men inside. In that bakehouse OF
hell men showed again their
mature, cursing, praying. storming,
or weeping as they lay.
The prospect hole became a
madhouse 4 big Hungarian, Graz
ed by the torment he was endur-
ing, leaped TO his feet and made
for the blazing hill outside.
Back there!" Dave shouted
hoarsely.
The big fellow rushed him. His
leader flung him back against tho
rock wall. He rushed again,
screaming in crazed anger. Sanders
struck him down with the long
barrel of the forty-five. The Hun
garlan lay where he fell for a few
minutes, then crawled back from
the mouth Of the pit.
Fire-crisped and exhausted, he
dropped down at last into forget
fulneSs Of pain. And the flames,
which had fought with such savage
fury to blot out the little group Of
men, fell back sullenly in defeat.
The line of fire had passed over
them.
In, the fresh air the men revived
quickly. They went back into the
cavern and dragged out those Of
their companions not yet able to
help themselves. Three out Of the
twenty-nine would mover help
themselves again. They had per.
ished in the tunnel.
CHAPTER XIV
The women Of Malapl respond
ed generously to the call Joyce
made upon them TO back their men
in the fight against the FIRE in the
chaparral. Now they cooked and
baked cheerfully TO supply the
wants of tho firc-fighters.

Keith raced ahead of q messenger.
"Joy, Joy, man wants to see you!

MADISON SOLDIER
SORE ON HAWAII

The Daily Register has receiv-
ed the following letter from a
Madison county boy in Uncle
Sans service, which will be read
with interest. He writes:
Non-commissioned Officers
School, Fl. DeRussy, (Hono-
lulu) Hawaiian Islands, Aug.
5, 1922.
Editor Daily Register,
Richmond, Ky.
Dear Editor
| will kindly ask you as per-
sonal friend to put this small
adj in the Richmond Daily Reg
lister, in regard to- people from
the States coming over to Homo
lulu on pleasure trip a vacation
or as tourists.
| think l should know by real
experience very much about
Honolulu, as I have been over
here for about 10 months. Some.
m ght think that it is paradise
over, as that is what they call it,
but | can say that it is altogether
different from the name. =
There is no place to go here
except around the islands, and it
is u miles around the islands, and
u miles across it. The Walk
Xix beach of Honolulu is not
worth seeing for it is big make
tip for tourists to come and see.
| have talked to several tour
lists from different parts of the
world and they say Hawaii is
not what they were expecting to
see. The only things that you
can see i'll your face at all times
is the uncivilized people here.
There are some people in the
mountains of these small islands
that have never seen a white
man.
If | was going to make tour
list trip | would prefer to go to
Paris or London. There is more
there to see iii a minute than
there is here in 20 years.
Especially for soldiers, when
they meet a soldier on the Streets
of Honolulu they turn their head
unless it is on or Just after pay
day. | am not knocking on the
army in Honolulu, for we have to
have soldiers here, but there is
not a man in uniform over here
that is satisfied here in Oahu. for
the people have very little use
for the soldiers.
There are a few white people
here and they are just the same
as the natives of the islands.
am sure glad that | have not got
to stay in Hawaii for life time
Take my advise and spend yor
vacation money some where else
{ TOT tnere Is nOth1ng to see after
coming over here; when you see
one place you see them all.
Many people come here to visit
fiilo and Honolulu and see the
volcano, but there is nothing to il
either. | sure hope the people
will kindly appreciate this letter
as | will save them many dollars
if, they will believe this letter.
am a soldier of Richmond
Ky and have served under the
colors for the last six years, en-
tered the service at the age of 10
land like army life fney and hope
Ito put many more years under
the colors. But not In Hawai-
for this is the lonesomest place
| have ever been. A letter from
any one would sure be apprec at
