Without a glance at Wier, Eve
went to the heap of clothing tossed
it about, selected cords, two pairs of
wooden socks, gray shirt, puttees,
shoes, flung the garments through
the door into her own room, followed
them, and locked herself in.
When she was dressed-the two
heavy pairs of socks helping to fit
her feet to the shoes-she emptied
her handful of diamonds, sapphires
and emeralds, including the Flaming
Jewel. into the pockets of her
breeches.
Now she was ready. She unlocked
her door and went out, scarcely
limping at all, now. Il

CHAPTER /.

When Quintana turned like an en-
ragged snake on Sard and drove him
to his destruction, he would have
killed and robbed the frightened dia-
mond broker had he dared risk the
shot. He had intended to do this
anyway, sooner or later. But with
the nose of the hunting dogs filling
the forest, Quintana was afraid to
fire.
About an hour later Quintana
was seen, challenged, chased and
shot at by State Trooper Lannis.
Quintana ran. And what with
the dense growth Of seeding beech
and oak and the heavily falling
birch and poplar leaves, Launis lost
Quintana ana then his trail.
The state trooper had left his
horse at the crossroads near the
scene of Darragh's masked exploit,
where he had stopped and robbed
Sard-and now Lannis FASTENED
Back to find and mount his horse,
and gallop straight into the first
growth timber.
There was no sound of dogs when
Lannis, rode in on the narrow,
spotted trail when he had flushed
Quintana into the dense growth Of
saplings that bordered it.
Once, very, very far away west
ward in the direction Of Star Pond
he fancied he heard faint vibration
IN the air that might have been
hounds baying.
He was right. And at that very
moment Sard was dying, horribly,
among two trapped offers as big

you and your gun, my friend?'-I
was that astonished.
He was a slim-built, powerful
guy with foreign face and voice
and way. He wanted to know if ne
md the honor-as he put ito in
troducc himself to a detective or
game constable, or a friend Of Mike
/ Clinch.
Il told linz I WASH any Of these,
and that worked in a private
| hatchery; and he called me liar"
Young Frys face flushed and his
voice began TO culver:
That's the way he misused me;
and he backed me into the shanty
and | had to sit down with both
hands up. Then he filled my pack
basket with grub, and took my ak,
and strapped my kit onto his back.
And talking all the time in
his mean, sneery, foreign way-and
| guess he thought he was funny,
for he laughed at his own jokes.
He told me his name was Quin-
tana, and that he ought to shoot me
for rat, but wouldn't because OF
the stink. Then he said he was
going to do quick job that the
police were too cowardly to do
that he was a-going to find Mike
Clinch down to Drowned Valley and
kill him; and if he could catch
Mikes daughter, too, he'd spoil her
face for life"
what next?" demanded the
trooper impatiently. Tell your
story and quit thinking how you
were misusedH
"He told me to stay in The shanty
for an hour or he'd do me for good, "
cried Fry 49,. ."Once | got up and
went to the door, and there he
stood by the brook, wolfng my
! lunch with both hands. | tell you
he cursed me and drove me, like a
dog inside with his big pistol-my
God-likc a dog ...s
"Then, the next time l took a
chance he was gone .... And
beat it right here to get a rifle" The
boy broke down and sobbed: "Hc
drove me around-like a dog-he
did"
"You leave chat to me-" inter-
rupted Lannis sharply. And, u
Wier: "You and George had bette"
Get a gun apiece. That fellow nigh
come back here or go to Harrod
Place if we starve him out"
Wier said to Fry: go up to
Haired Place and tell Jansen your
story and bring back Two 45-70's.
. E. -. And quit sniveling e..
You may get shot at him yet"
Behind the curtains of her open
window Eve Strayer, lying on her
bed, had heard every word.
Crouched there beside her pillow
she peered out and saw Trooper
Lannis ride away; saw the Fry boy
start toward Harrod Place on a
run; saw Ralph Wier watch them
out of sight and then turn and re-
enter the lodge.
Wrapped in Darragh's big blanket
robe she got off the bed and opened
her chamber door as Wier was pass
ing through the living room.
"Please-Td like to speak to VOC

SUIT TO TEST new ROAD
LAW TO Be FILEO TODAY
Court of Appeals May Rule on the Act
Creating New Highway
Commission.

A suit to test the constitutionality
of the Simmons road bill, passed by
the last general assembly, will be filed
Thursday in the Jefferson circuit
Court at Louisville by State Senators
R. c. Simmons of Covington, w. A.
Perry Of Louisville and Frank l..
Daughterty Of Bardstown.
Senator Simmons was the author Of
the bill, which was introduced in the
senate last February by Senator Perry,
president protein, and the suit is a
friendly one to test the legality of the
measure.
The act, passed 10 to II in the SEN
ate on strict party vote, provided
that new state highway commission
Of four members be created, with Gen.
William l.. Seihert, of Bowling Green,
as chairman, to have complete control
of state and federal road funds.
Opponents of the measure claim that
the bill carried an appropriation, pro-
viding that members of the commits.
sion draw salaries of $4,000 a year
each, and that therefore two-thirds
majority was necessary in bott
branches Of the legislature for its pas
sage. Supporters of the measure claim
that it is simply an enabling act
Indications are that the court of ap
peals will rule finally on the acts con
