urged in the senate today by SEN

with masterful, arrogant strides.

She took his words as a direct re-
buff. There was a little lump in her
throat that she had to get rid of
before she spoke again.
Sorry. Perhaps some other
time" Joyce gave him her hand.

He bowed. Thank you"

that the boy had fred the first shots.
Now they were meeting for the first

Miller had been drinking. The

was hungry.
He took n step-and stopped.
He had recognized Sanders. His eyes
narrowed. The head on his short,
red neck vas thrust forward.
"Goddlemighty!H he screamed,
and nett moment was plucking a
revolver from under his left armpit.
Bob caught Joyce and swept her
behind him, covering her with his
body as best he could. At the same
time Sanders plunged forward, ar
row-straight and swift. The revolver
cracked. 1t spat fire a second time,
a third. The tiger-man, head low,
his whole splendid body vibrant
with energy, hurled himself across
the road as though he had been
flung from a catapult. A streak of
fire ripped through his shoulder.

taneously. He thudded hard into
the fat paunch of the gunman. They
vent down together.
The fingecc of Dawes left hand
closed on the fat wrist of the
gambler. His other hand tore the
revolver away from the slack grasp.
The gun rose and fell. Miller went
into Inconsistencies without ven a
groan. The corrugated butt of the
gun had crashed down on his fore
head.

against a telephone pole for support.

at her presence here. Hes the one
that's hurt" he answered quietly.

voice died away. She felt her knees
grow weak. To her his man had
appeared to be plunging straight to
death.
No excitement in him reached the
surface. His remarkably steady
eyes still held their grim, hard
tenseness, but otherwise his self
control was perfect. He was abso-
lutely imperturbable.
HE was shootin' wild. Sorry you

swept the gathering crowd. You'd

GO ON WITH THE STORY
Dawes heart warmed to this fine
loyalty. Bob would do to tie to,
Sanders told himself with a rush of
gratitude. None of this feeling
showed in his dry voice.
Thanks. Bob"
Hart knew already that Dave had
come back a changed man.. He had
gone in a boy, wild, turbulent. un-
tanned. He had come out tempered
by the fires OF experience and disci-
pline. The stee1-gray eyes were no
longer frank and gentle. They
Judged warily and inscrutably.
They arranged an hour of meeting
at the Delmonico restaurant.
In front Of the postoffice Bob met
Joyce Crawford. The young woman
had fulfilled the promise of her girl
hood. AS she moved down the
street. tall and slender. there was a
light, joyous freedom in her step.
"Miss Joyce, he's here" Bob said.
"Who-Dave?"
Eyes, ma'am, Dave! He's right
here in town. Met him half an hour
ago."
"When can I see him?" she ask
ed.
Bob looked at his watch. IT got
an appointment to meet him at Del
monico's right now"
Joyce was a young woman wht
made swift decisions. "Ill go with
you,' she said. y
Sanders was standing in front of
the restaurant. but he was faced in
he other direction. His fiat, mus
eular back was rigid. In his at
titude, was a certain tenseness. -as
though his body was a bundle of
,teel springs ready to be released.
Bob's eye travelled swiftly PAST
him to a fat mar rolling up the

said Bob. Then we'll know the

They drove out in the blackboard
behind the half-broken colts. The
young broncos went out of town to
a flying start. They raced across
the plain as hard as they could tear,

as the wheels hit the high spots.
