Fairchild agreed. He knew SQuint
Rodaine was not through. And he
knew also that the tight against NE
man with the blue-white scar had only
begun. The cross-cut had brought
wealth and the promise Of riches to
rairchild and Harry for the rest Of
their lives. But Il had not freed them
from the danger Of n man--a man
who was willing to do anything In the
world, Il seemed. to achieve his pur-
pose. Harry's suggestion Was a good
one.
Well. then Harry ran. to do much as
Talrchild had done, to chuckle and
laugh and toss the heavy bits Of ore
about, to stare at them In the light of
his carbide torch, and finally to hurry
into the new stope which had been
fashioned by the hired miners In Fair.

But Harry had turned and was stur-
ing upward. His eyes had become
wide, his head had shot forward, his
whole being had become one Of strained
attention. Once he cooked his head,
then, with a sudden exclamation, he
leaped backward.

THE
CROSS>CUT
Harry paved at his still magnificent
nL~ --,

| Harry paved at his still magnificent
mustache. Robert continued:
"But the times not ripe yet, Harry,
more about Rodaine first and what
other tricks he's been up to. AND
we've got to get other evidence than
merely our own word. For instance,
In this case, you can't remember any
thing. All the testimony / could give
would be unsupported. They'd run me
OUT Of town II l even tried to start any
such accusation. But one things GER

weapons he fights with. And IL we're

him. I'm going home to bed now;
I've got to be up early in the morning
and get hold of Farrell. Your case
comes up at court"
"And I'm up In q 'ospitalv"
Which fact the court the next morn
ing recognized, on the testimony Of
the inferno, the physician and the day
nurses Of the hospital, TO the extent Of
a continuance until the January term
In the trial Of the case. A thing which
the court further recognized was the
substitution Of five thousand dollars
In cash for the deeds Of the Blue Pop
by mine as security for the bailee.
And with this done, the deeds to his
mine safe In his pocket, Fairchild went
to the bank, placed the papers behind
the great steel gates Of the safety de-
to the telegraph office. A long mes
sage was the result, and a money or
der to Denver that ran beyond a hun
dred dollars. The instructions that
went with 1t to he biggest florist in
town were for the most elaborate
floral design possible to be sent by ex-
press for Judge Rlchmond's funeral
minus a card denoting the sender. Fol
lowing this, Fairchild returned to the
hospital, only to find Mother Howard
taking his place beside the bed Of
Harry. One more place called for his
a~ttention-the mine.
Health returned slowly to the big
Cornishman; 1t would be a matter Of
weeks before he could be the genial,
strong giant that he once had repre-
sented. And In those weeks Fairchild
was constantly beside him.
Nor that there were no other things
which were represented in Roberts
desires-far from 1t. Stronger than
ever was Anita Richmond in Fair
child's thoughts now, and it vas with
avidity that he learned every scrap Of
news regarding her, as brought to him
by Mother Howard. Duly he heard
that Maurice Rodaine had told friends
that the passing OF the Judge had
caused only n slight postponement In
their marital plans.
Finally, back to his normal strength
once MORE. Harry rose from the arm
chair by the window Of the boarding
house and turned to Fairchild.
"We're going to work tonight" he
announced calmly.
"When?" Fairchild did not believe
he understood. Harry grinned. "To-

It was a rousing reception that was
accorded Harold C. Schwarm and
wife at their initial vaudeville ap-
pearance at the Lyceum yesterday
and their act seems to be attracting
considerable attention. Notable as
the man who duped New Workers
into believing he was Prince De Bour-
bon, Schwarm tells his audience how
he did it in little monologue, while
his wife does a bit of singing and
dancing. The Lyceum also has sew
eral other high grade vaudeville acts,
featuring the latest in song, dance and
comedy sketches.
The ,picture--"Rich Mems Wives
