Phil, she promised to come the
next day. As the hour was getting
late. and Ruth was weary after the
days experiences. they all decided
to retire for the night.
As Loomis and Julia were about
to follow, there was knock at the
door. 1t was Henley, bringing
Stone Ear. Now show her the
Wampum Belt" he told Loomis. I
can read her mute signs" Stone
Ear was shown the belt, afte-
which she made signs to Henley.
She says she refuses to read the
cipher without a certain amulet
which Miss Randolph possesses,
explained the cowpuncher.
Loomis was dismayed. I'VE must
get hold of that amulet some way,
he said.
Il will get it tonight" Julia as
sured him, I'VE can't afford tn

At midnight Ruth suddenly
awoke and sat up in bed. She could
, have sworn someone had been i'll

The amulet was gone. Slipping
into a dressing gown, she opened
the door of her room and stepped
out into the hall just in time to
collide with Stone Ear, who had
the amulet in her hand. The old
squaw had just escaped from down

excitement subsidized.
In the morning, as Ruth and Pail
were getting into the stage coach,
Loomis took the driver aside and
said, IF any accident should hap
pen to delay this trip it won't make
me feel badly at all" A bill of
generous proportions changed
hands and the driver winked at
Loomis.
In a few moments the coach was
on its way. After a drive of about
mile they approached a small

Suddenly Phil saw an automo-

other moment he had hired the
driver Of the car to take them on
their way Ruth and Phil climbed
into the car and they were on.
But they had not reckoned on
Henley and his men. That worthy
hireling of Loomis had followed

continue their way in the automo-

CHAPTER XII.

AS the sand continued to pour In
about Ruth, the girl began to cry
for help. The White Rider had not
given up hope OF rescuing her. and
as he made his way down one Of
the passages, her voice reached
him. Running back he seized a
pick and shovel, determined to dig
through the wall and save her
from being buried alive. 1t was
done none too soon. The sand was
beginning to pour in around her
neck just as the mysterious horse
man reached her.
AS they emerged YEARLY, he ask
ed the girl IL she knew why she
was being pursued. Il am sure they
are after this amulet" she told
him. 1T is the key to the cipher
on the sacred Wampum Belt. the
only solution TO the problem OF the
Golden Pool But who are you,
and why do you take such an in
terest in me?" she asked.
II am not a liberty to tell YOU"
you back to the ranch house"
Leaving the chamber they walked
out the passageway which led to
the spot where their horses were
resting. Then they started for the
ranch. AS they rode across the
plain, the girl saw Phil coming to-
ward them. She gleefully an
nounced it to the White Rider He
waited until the young man had
sighted his sweetheart, and then
babe Ruth goodbye and galloped off
madly.
Back at the ranch house, Jim
Loomis and Julia were in earnest
consultation Loomis insisted on
obtaining possession Of the amulet,
so as to secure the Golden Pool.
IF we fail to get the amulet" he
said, we can still obtain a large
share of the wealth by keeping
Ruth from going back to the
Golden Canyon in the next 80 days.
That is the time allotted TO her TO
decide whether the pool is to be the
property OF the Buffaloes or Blue
Hawks. AS she is hostile to our
friends, the Blue Hawks, we stand
a poor chance of profting by her
decision. But if she should fail to
appear at the canyon in time, the
pool will be equally divided, and
We will not be left out entirely"
THE only person who can read
the cipher on the Wampum Belt is
Stone Ear" declared Julia, and
she won't read the belt unless she
is given the amulet" Tie con-
spirators then agreed that Stone
Ear must be found Immediately.
At that moment Ruth and Phil
arrived at the ranch. They were
greeted warmly by the deceitful
Julia and LOOMS, who listened in
feigned surprise as they told of
their experiences. AS they sat
talking and chatting, Crouching
Mole suddenly made his appear
ance. Going up to Ruth, he said:
only one moon remains where
in you must decide the ownership
of the Golden Pool Our people are
becoming restless aud demand that
you return at once"
But l have lost my only protec-
ton, the Wampum Belt" replied
the girl, "and l fear your treacl-
cry. l will not return to the can
yon until the belt is found"
Il can promise you, Princess
White Eagle" he answered that
you will be perfectly safe. We all
