senior judge.
The birds rose with a whirr; the
little gun barked; the pointer dropped
to his launches; 1t was perfect work.
"Go on. old man" she ordered.
Then she was running back to her
pony, which Ferris was holding for
her. Again Burton saw in her face
the strain she was under. How
precious was every moment with a
wild dog like this. She rammed the

and anxiously squirting up his mount
came upon a body Of horsemen
gathered in a patch OF woods
Out yonder in a cotton field he
could see the three judges gath
cred on their horses like consulting
generals on a battlefield. They had
called time, the men explained to
Burton, until Jessie Arnold could find
her dog. A short distance from the
judges Count Redstone was sitting on
his launches, painting, and beside him
stood his handler, dismounted. This
was giving Count Redstone a chance
to rest and the handler was taking
full advantage of It.
Some OF the men were scouting for
the girl, among them Ferris. They
were riding about the fields and
woods outside the course looking for
her dog. The girl had ridden up yon-
der creek bottom, the last they saw
of her, going like mad.
But she was using her brains they
said. There are two kinds Of boilers

love of running and those who from
hilltops pick out the country that

reotion he had taken, she started
running swiftly. Behind her hurried
tho two men. Burton breathing hard.
This will never do" gasped Ferris.
Leave It to herr" commanded Bur

AT last, on top OF a ridge. half a
mile away, he reappeared. Three
times shriller and shriiler she blew.
and now he came galloping toward
them.
Come In" she commanded.
He came to her and she caught him
quickly by the collar.

she said proudly.
But her eyes were dilated. She was

silent at the table.

stopped with the postmaster down

Ferris was depressed. That show

on and the crowd to excite him. They
ought to do something-warn her.
advise her.
just leave 1t to the girl, Ferris" he
said quietly.
She was gone when next morning he
came down to breakfast. She had
left with the wagon that hauled her
dog to the place of trial. the other
diners said. Not once during the
night or the morning had she let him
out OF her sight.
The crowd, all mounted. had gath
cred at the beginning of the course
when Burton and Ferris rode up that
brilliant winter morning. And lit
tie to one side, standing beside a
wagon in which were two dogs
crates. ono containing Arnold's
Drake. the other Count Redstone. his
brace mate, stood the girl.
At her side a wiry Texas pony
waited patiently. In a scabbard on
the saddle was strapped a twenty
gauge shotgun.
The girl looked small. slight. and
brown in her riding suit. Burton
glimpsed her face. Though brave and
composed, It showed the strain she
was under. In that crate n .arest her,
as she thought, was the hope Of her
crippled father.
Her eyes were fixed on those sunlit
straw fields, SO soon to be her battle
ground. Burton liked her silence.
From the beginning she had played
the game-had asked no odds because
she was a woman. He thought OF his
own youngest daughter. Suppose she
were standing there, as tina. girl
stood!
When the three judges rode up, she
herself lifted the big pointer out Ut
tho crate. Once more he reared up on
her, once moro her hand stroked his
head. Then, at a command Of the

field. her pony following. At her side
