your reason" she replied. "Stil, I
may offer it again some day. Good
night"
He said goodnight and turned.
Madeline wonderlngly watched him 70
down the path with his hand on the
black horses neck.
She went In to rest q little before
dressing for dinner and. being fatigued
from the days riding and excitement,
she fell asleep. When she awoke II
was twilight. She wondered why her
Mexican maid had not come to her,
and she rang the bell. The maid did
not put In an appearance, nor was
there any answer to the ring. The
house seemed unusually quiet. 1t was
4 brooding silence, which presently
broke to the sound Of footsteps on the
porch. Madeline recognized Stillwells
tread. though It appeared to be light
for him. Then she heard him call
softly In at the open door Of her Of
nee. The suggestion Of caution In his
voice suited the strangeness Of his
walk. With a boding sense Of trouble
she hurried through the rooms. He
was standing outside her office door.
"Stillwell" she exclaimed.
"Please come out on tho porch"
She complied and. once out, was en-
abled to see him. His grave face, paler
than she had ever beheld It. caused
her to stretch an appealing hand to-
ward him. Stillwell intercepted 1t and
held 1t In his own.
Miss Majesty. I'm ama.In' sorry to
tell worisome news. But 1t can't be
avoided. The fact 10 we're In a bad

Madeline. firmly, though she trembled.
"Wal. what we're up against 10 this:
that gang Of bandits Pat Have was
chasin'-they're hidin' In the house !"
I'm the houser' echoed Madeline.
aghast.
Miss Majesty. It's the ama.in' truth.
an shamed indeed am I to admit 1t.
Stewart-why. he's wild with rage to
think 1t could hev happened. You see.
1t couldn't hev happened II I hedn't
slopsd the boys of to the gol-lof links.
an II Stewart hedn't rid out on the
mesa after u. It's my fault. But now
we've got to face ito ngger. Now.
listen. When Stewart left you an hour
or 70 ago he follersd me direct to
where me an the boys was tryin' to
keep Pat HAVE from tearin' the ranch
to pieces. At that we was helpin' Pat
all we could to nnd them bandits. But
when Stewart got there he made diff
ference. Pat was nasty before. but
sesin' Stewart made him wuss. I
reckon Gene to Pat 10 the same a.
red to q Greaser bull. Anyway. when
the sheriff set nre to an old adobe hut
Stewart called him an called him hard.
Pat Have he'd six fsllsrs with him. an
from all Appearances bandit-huntin'
was some fiesta. There was row, an
It looked bad fer q little. But Gene
was cool. an he controlled the boys.
Then Pat an his tough de-pootIes went
on hunun'. That huntin'. Miss Majesty.
