months"
Good Cd! then you're not the

I'm all the Kid there ever was"
Kelleen admitted, carelessly. 'That
party was simply manufactured to
order; here is where he ends his des-
perate career. 1 would have kept the
secret awhile longer If could but per-
haps 1t Is just as>well. Now we un-
derstand each other, Garrity, and the
very best thing you can do will be to
answer my questions"
Kelleen paused, turning quickly
over in his mind what he had better
attempt. He felt profound con-
tempt for his prisoners. Meager, while
a physical giant, was mentally no
more than a mere cowardly brute (;
Garrity might be truly dangerous-a
sly, treacherous villain, but physically
unable to cope with him for a moment
and now utterly cowed. While he re-
mained armed, and they were weapon
lCSoy liC tCI hdu ilOlhllE " 1Cdl .
His first intention had been to hold
the fellows as prisoners, until the
squad Of troopers appeared; turn
them over to the lieutenant In COM
mand, searching the cave later at his
own leisure. But why wait? 1t might
be an hour, two hours yet, before the
soldiers arrived-and then there was
Deborah. His thought leaped swiftly
to the girl; what had happened to her
during those long, dark hours? Where
had she disappeared after he had
been dashed from the rock? She had
evidently escaped discovery; he knew
that; had wandered off into the desert
those leagues of sand, struggling for
life. The vision called to him, yet he
could not seek her until after his
men came These prisoners were far
too important to be left unguarded.
His duty as an officer held him as in
wise.
But he realized at that moment a
decision that his heart was with Debo-
rah Meredith. He must find her, res
cue her and-thank God there was
time enough to accomplish this.
"When did you first learn that Go
mez was hiding out in this nelghbor-
hood, Garrity?" he questioned sud
denly.
"Six months ago. I saw him in No
gales.'
"Privately?"
"Yes; we had some deals together
before
"Paid you for protection, did he?
What did he want this time"
Provisions. ! was to get him out

Meager to come up here"
The Holly chieftain., 1924-01-03

ID
Seems he wasn't doing anything any
more. just hiding out; none of his
gang with him. 1t had got SO hot for
the old devil he was afraid to show
his nose above ground; fifty thousand
for him, dead or alive, you know
that last raid had got the q. S. after
him as well as Mexico, and he was
smart enough to lie out here until 1t
blew over. Maybe we never would
have got on to him If Sanchez hadn't
struck his trail one day by accident
over beyond Silver springs. That led
him into this valley, aud then he got
lost again. After that we kept a
watch. 1t didn't do no good for some
time. the old fox was too sly. So
finally Garrity put up meeting with
him-they had some secret signal ar
ranged between 'em-ane in that way
we traced out this esr$ and got him
cornered"
"Cave! It's a tunnel. amt IT."
II don't know what 1t is. I've only
What's your idea?"
''That Manuel found "Alvara's Lost
Mine'-lt's got all the earmarks."
'The-the Lost Aiinev Then
it's worth millions! You-you can't
mean It."
"It's only a guess; let's chuck that
now, and finish up with Gomez"
"Yes. but wait!" exclaimed Meager
eagerly, suddenly seeing chance for
himself. "There amt no use of you
making any gunplay with me. Kid
What's the matter with us being pard-
ners? There's only three Of us know
about this-you, Garrity an me. H!
there must be money enough here to
make us all rich; Gomez has got a
devil of lot hid away somewhere,
and, good Cd! If this is the Lost
Mine"
Kelleen hesitated, not from any
doubt as to his own purpose, but in
an endeavor to- ,h6ose the best method.
Meager's plan opened new possihili-
ties: the man must knew more than
he had revealed, while Garrity was
apparently even deeper versed in the
mystery. Just now both men would
be more valuable alive than dead.
THAT sounds fair enough, Bob" he
replied quietly. you say the judge
is in on 1t, too?"
Sure; he got the dope. and you
can't play any tricks on Garrity. He's
coming here this morning."
"Here?"
That's what. We had nice little
surprise party all made up for Manuel,
only you cooked the goose"
A low. peculiar whistle echoed
through the passage. and Meager
stopped suddenly. Again the whistle
sounded, evidently from the entrance
to the tunnel.
II reckon that's him." he said grim
