sight of him and with an oath
stepped directly before Dicks
mare.
Don't you damned ranchers

you see it? Who do you think
you are, snoopin' around here?
Come on. vamos!"
Dick looked urbanely down.
'I've bumped fussy little men
right on the nose for less than
that" he said easily, then
catching sight of a bulging
object beneath the others
shirt he smiled. do you pack

Menacing
The mans face darkened.
Maybe you'd like to see what
/ pack it for?"
"Sure, why not?"
Almost at once a dozen
laborers had surrounded the
two, and beneath the shirts of
several Dick made out the tell
tale outline of a revolver.
Tensely they crowded in, silent
and menacing, when suddenly
a worker called, STEADY, boss,
that's Dick Lowell, Old Man
Lowell'S son."
The effect of those words
was electric. At once the threat
ening hostility vanished and the
mans voice took on an oily
quality. Uneasily he tried to
laugh. That's one on me, Mr..
Lowell. just forget what I
said-just let it pass. Any
friend of lick Sari is ace high
around here. But we've been
havin' some trouble"
Without another glance Dick
had already turned his horse,
and in silence the two riders
retraced their steps toward the
Barrier. For a time Lowell
rode with head sunk forward,
s one who ponders some knotty
problem. while the horses, re-
luctant to leave the cool waters
edge, plodded slowly out toward
the desert.
Once. as they ascended the
Barriers granite ledge a low
detonation caused the earth to
tremble. Dick looked inquir-
ingly up.
Blasting" Nora answered the
unspoken question. They're get
ting rock from the base OF the
Barrier"
Il think" he answered so
berly. there will be blasting Of
another kind before many days"
The day had passed quickly
and it was already nearing sun
set when Dick reached home.
Riding directly to the barn he
unsaddled his tired mare, then
nearing the house stopped to
drink in the ever changing
beauty of another sunset. Slant
ingly the great desert sun had
paused above the rim of the
horizon, tinting every vagrant
cloud to pastel loveliness, touch
ing to golden life the far-off
hills Of Mexico. And as he
watched that age-old wonder of
sky and desert, from somewhere
within the hacienda there came
to him a voice humming in
Spanish song of other days.
"CuGndo Sc quiere de UerdS
Como 20 quiero, 20 q IT,"
the unseen voice floated out to
him, carrying with it into that
sunset world something of Mex
ico's melancholy and sorrow.
and something of Mexico's un-
conquerable quality of soul.

Then once more the two fell
silent as they climbed the last
reaches of that rocky, winding
trail. Already both horses we're
breathing heavily and they
stopped very willingly to rest
on the flat. narrow top Of the
Barrier. On both sides now
the world lay outstretched at
their feet. Behind glittered the
desert. Before them, almost as
precipitous as their ascent, the
trail led steeply downward, and
to the north the softly rising
slope of foothills reached up to
the lower level f timberline,

Changes
But it was a far different
Azure Lake than he had left
six months before. Men had
brought changes, and already
the lakes lower bank was the
scene of bustling animation
where the foundations for the
first great dam were being laid.
Workmen's bunkhouses clustered
about the banks, and where
once had been green. grass
clothed slopes. now stretched a
trampled morasS of mud, piled
high with stones and timber.
Along the rough plank runways
men and animals were moving,
while in a long, winding line,
trucks heavily laden we're
humping over the desert from
Verde.
From the distance at which
these two were watching it all
appeared like the frantic, un-
directed activities of ants.
Little puffs of smoke rose from
a miniature train. and once on
the clear air came the faint
sound of a whistle. Azure Lake
was being harnessed to the
needs of man.
Moodily Lowell sat his horse,
eyes fixed on that swarming,
ever-changing spectacle. but he
gave no voice to the thoughts
the scene evoked. and soon
without a word led on down
the flinty trail. Once at the
bottom, it was easy going, and
again the horses fell into their
tireless desert jog, that an
hour later brought them to the
banks of Azure Lake.
Endless animation and con-
fusion. A thousand men must

Dick urged his horse among the

came to the foundation OF the

it, then looked out along the
line of stakes that marked the
beginning of the ditch. He

to speak to the girl when a

WILL VIE IN
PARK MEET
BY SID KATZNELL

Some Of the outstanding anna
teur bicycle riders of the country
have signified their intention to
compete in the annual bicycle
meet under the auspices Of the
local Century Road Club AsSocia'
ton Sunday, September 16, at
the Polo Grounds, West Potomac
Park. The first event commences
at 8 a. m. sharp.
The meet will be conducted
under the rules Of the Amateur
Bicycle League Of America, which
means that all records will be
recognized officially throughout
the United States.
Seven Events Listed
Seven events will be run, five
in the senior division and two in
the junior section. The seniors
will have the one-mile novice,
one-mile open, three-mile open,
miss and out, and the l0-mile
handicap. The junior section in
cludes the one,mile open and the
mile.
Five leading cycling organiza-
tionS in the East are sending
representatives. They are Cen
tury Road Club Association, OF
New York city; Maryland Bicycle
Club, of Baltimore; Century Road
Club, of Philadelphia, and the At
lantic City Wheelmen, Of Atlantic
City, N. j.
And with these clubs come
such renowned amateur riders as
phil" Dorch. Maryland State
champion, and TURK" Bruhn
Pennsylvania champion, who is
probably the heaviest amateur in
the world He weighs 1876 pounds.
Jackson Tops Field
Ralph Jackson, local champ.
and Ed Bieber, former titleholder,
will head a formidable District
field which includes Anthony
Bits" Horner, Charles Cauffman,
Buck McDougal, Charles Towers,
Herb Johnson, Hugh Maddox and
Butch Kennon, new junior cham
pion.
Ed Bieber has been made the
favorite in the 10-mile handicap,
due to his recent victory in the
District 10-mile race.
In 1880 he rode from the Cap
L-N ~ L. 70
Baltimore, in hour and SO min
utes, shattering the old intercity
record by nearly 8 minutes.
Bits" Horner, who holds the
District 25-mile road record,
should offer Bieber considerable
competition. Ralph jackson, the
present District all-around cham
pion, is given more than an even
chance in the sprints.

ROSS BATTLE
BY DAVIS J. WALSH

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-The
name, which doesn't matter, is
Barnett Rosofsky, but the trade
knows him as Barney Ross, which
does, and never a champion has
had more outward and vocal as
surance the morning before a

with Jimmy McLarnin for the
welterweight championship at the
Garden Bowl tomorrow night and,
If confidence was left hook

"Say," said he, maybe a
little nettIed by the blather
about McLt rnin'S punch. "Say!
What goods a Sunday punch
if you start it on Monday?"
There wa no answer to that,
just as there wasn't any the last
time when McLarnin had only a
Saturday and half-holiday punch
and started it on Tuesday. The
young man may have been a
little crypt with his utterance,
but his idea is sound. He meant
that lightning is reasonably con-
elusive when it hits and nothing
when it doesn't. McLarnin was

round he won't want him. Incl

over and arrived at a decision.
But Ross and the odds may be
making the same mistake. Both
seem to be thinking of McLarnin
as he was and not as he will be.
1t may be an unfortunate over
sight.
Fighters Are Primed
Ross will finish what training
may be left to him today and
then withdraw himself from cir
culation until the official weigh
ing in tomorrow. He says he Was

and won't be much less than that
for the fight. He's bigger and
broader, but whether he's better

TITLE SERIES
OPENS TODAY
BY GARRETT WATERS


Important days begin today for
championship teams representing
the various week day leagues in
and around the city.
For today the series for the city
title starts.
Seven league champions are in
the series, namely G.P.O., of the
Departmental League; Heurich
Brewers, of the Industrial League:
Kann's, Department Store League;
Grace, getown Church
League: Acacia, National Capital
League; G.P.O. Feds, Federal
League and the College Park, A.C.,
of the M aryland Suburban

ship contests, stands having been
erected to handle the huge crowds
expected.

pose the College Park A.C., while
Friday Kann'S meet G.P.O. The
series will then mark time until
next Monday when the Heurich
Brewers will make their debut
against the winner of the Acacia
Grace game.
The double-knockout system is
to be used for the series. This
means that teams will be elirni.
mated after two games have been
lost.
In almost every case the seven
teams representing the mentioned
leagues gained the right to play for
the championship by winning
honorS in their respective circuits,
following play-off games.
Play-Off Unnecessary
Only in the Georgetown Church
League was a play-off unnecessary.
In this circuit, Grace captured
laurels in both halves Of the
leagues split Schedule Situa-
ton that has ruled for the past
two or three years.
In today's game a pitchers
battle looms. Joe Sullivan, of
Eastern High School fame, stacks
up against Tom O'Meara, young
sensation of the Georgetown
Church League.
Both hurlerS pitched brilliantly
for their respective teams in
league competition during the
