NATIONAL FORESTS IN COLO
RADIO EARN $464, 1865 IN YEAR

Denver.-COlOradOs seventeen ma
tional forests earned $464, ,965.76 during
the last federal fiscal year and the
counties in which these forests are To-
Gated will receive $116,241.44. State
Treasurer Mulnix has received the
governments check for $116,241.44
from Secretary of Interior Work and
the auditors office is now engaged in
figuring out each countys share Of the
money. Nearly every county west of
the foothills will share in the distribu
ton, each country's share being based
upon the acreage of forest within its
boundaries.
Under the national forest laws the
counties get % per cent of the earn
ings of the forests. They must spend
their share for either school or road
purposes in the proportion of 95 per
cent for one and five for the other.
They have the right to decide whether
or not the 90 per cent shall be spent
for roads or for schools.
Gunnison county, with 1,325,7 ,72S
acres, located in five forests, will re-
ceive the largest portion of the money.
Altogether, there are 1927, ,038 acres
embraced in the seventeen forests in
Colorado.

"You mean to force me to marry
you?" she asked, her own temper ris-
ing to combat his.
Sure he replied brutally. 81 never
supposed you'd do anything else but
kick. But that's none of Garritys
business"
''But such a marriage will not be
legal; no court would ever sustain it."
Legal! Courts! You make me
tired. This amt Chicago! We're out
here in an Arizona desert, and I don't
remember ever caring a d-n what the

CHAPTER ~
The Marriage.

"It's just me, Miss Meredith" an
swered a woman's voice weakly. "Pve
got one of my spells again. II need
you bad. I just thought I couldn't
drag myself this far; only had to-"
The reaction left the startled girl
trembling, but she had no doubt as to
the urgency of the call. Thrusting the
revolver back into it's hiding place, un-
willing that Mrs. Meager should even
see it, she swiftly unlocked the door
and stepped forth into the dimly lit
hall. Her eyes caught one glimpse of
her patients face, CHASTITY white, but

doing all right, and these fellows
didn't catch me asleep out at Silver
Springs. 1 knew who they were before
Joined up with them. Fact is, Bob,
l was headed this way and willin' to
have company of the right sort.'
Headed this way? Huntin' me, you
mean? What's up?"
Nothing to worry about tonight
What l came for will wait. Safe for
me here, isn't it?"
Sure" and Meager burst into a
drunken laugh. "I've cleaned out the
old outfit complete Come on in, all
there, Sanchez" and his voice roared
out the order to the clubhouse "Take
care Of these horses"
Deborah, her heart beating wildly,
sank down upon chair, with face
buried in her hands. They had come,
judge, the half-breed, were mere pup
pets, dancing to the voice of their
Master; the very tone in which he
greeted them spoke his contempt of
the fellows. Any appeal for mercy
to such as they would be but wasted
breath. And the third mani The girl
had somehow, at first view, hope of
him. His trim appearance in the dim
light, the pleasant, firm sound Of his
voice, her knowledge that he was not
part Of the original conspiracy, had
given her sudden thrill Of expecta-
ton. But this existed no longer since
she heard his name. The "Frisco
Kid"; the very sound Of it served to
chill her blood. Outlaw, desperate,
spoken of in whispers along the bor-
der; tales of him had reached her ears
ever since her first arrival. There was
no hope for her in his presence.
Someone raped gently on the door,
and she sprang to her feet and stood
motionless, staring through the dark
ness. The rapping came again.

with terror rather than pain, and as
quickly realized that she had walked
into a set trap. Before she could
even spring backward, a burly form
crowded past her into the opening,
completely blocking it, while directly
fronting her, grinning maliciously,
stood Juan Sanchez She knew, with
out seeing, who was behind her-Bob
Meager, chuckIing in drunken satisfac-
ton. 1t was the shrinking, frightened
woman against the opposite wall who
spoke first.

Small Grain Makes Good Progress

Of small grain has made good progress

Seeding of winter grains is just begin

Child Labor Restrictions Emphasized

Washington.-A legislative program
of interest to organized labor was pre-
sented to President Coolidge by Sam
uel Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor Mr.. Gompers
stressed particularly the need for re-
striction of child labor, and said after
ward that the executive seemed to be
in sympathy with such movement.
He added that before leaving for Port
land, Ore, to attend the annual Amer
lean Federation of Labor convention,
he would submit some memoranda to
the President regarding the legisla-
ton
The Winslow mail., 1923-10-05

and he grinned suggestively, with a
drunken leer, "after tonight, I don't
reckon you'll be hunting the court
anyway; you'll be d-n glad you've got
a husband. Come on up closer, boys,
so you can see the whole show-Gar-
rity is going to splice us now, without
no more words about it."
The judge cleared his throat, taking
a printed slip of paper from his pocket
in his stubby fingers.
"Bob's quite right, MISS" he said,
with an effort at dignity. He's sure
got the law with him, an the wit
nesseS."
"But refuse to marry him. I do
not consent" she insisted, with trem-
bling voice.
II amt got nothing to do with your
personal quarrels. They are for you
and Bob to settle. / reckon every
married couple has them. You just
stand there an face me-"
She was pressed back against the
table, helpless to move, too thoroughly
bewildered and dazed for the moment
to attempt any action. Sanchez had
deserted the door he was guarding,
cheerfully. Arvan was opposite, his
dark, haIf-breed Indian face exhibiting
no emotion, while Meager had planted
himself at her right, his bloOdshOt
eyes scowling into her own. Garrity
began to read, but she only heard him
dumbly, her mind inactive, cOmpre-
hending not single word. Then sud-
denly, consciousness came back as
though something had snapped in the
numbed brain, the words sounding
clear, distinct: 81 pronounce you hus-
band and wife, and whom God hath
joined together, let no man put asun-
der"
With a single sharp cry, she sprang
wildly backward, jerked herself free
from Sanchez hasty grip, and dashed
headlong for the door leading into the
hall. The startled Mexican and Mea-
ger, springing forward to intercept
her flight, collided, cursing and strik-
ing at each other in that instant of
confusion, while she flung open the
door and swept out, untouched, into
the hall. Her mind contained but one
thought as she ran-her own room,
the weapon in the bureau drawer. She
could defend herself there; kill her
self, kill him, if necessary He should
never touch her-never She was
free now, and would be helpless in his
hands never again. She would die
first, die gladly, but Bob Meager would
never possess her alive. The drunken
oaths behind spurred her on, strength
ened her resolve. She ran, never
glancing back, straight to the en-
trance sought, flung it open and sprang
within, slamming the door shut behind
her and feeling desperately for the
KEY. 1t was not in the lock, nor could
she find it lying on the dark floor be-
meath. Drunk as Meager was, he had
thought of that; had seen to it that
the way to her apartment would be
left unguarded. The girl turned, her
heart beating rapidly, and crossed to
the bureau Thank God he had not
discovered the gun, and she swung de-
family about, the weapon gripped in
her hand.

Purchasing Power of Dollar Surveyed

Washington.-The purchasing power
Of the American dollar now amounts
to only 65 cents, the Departmental La
Dor announced in making public the
results of ten-year survey of the dol
lars varying course. The survey is
based upon the fluctuations of the dol

that at times the dollar has been able
to purchase only 40 cents worth in
American markets. In fOodstuffs the
low point of 40 cents was reached in
May, 1920, with rising buying power
thereafter, the average today being 70
