CHAPTER "

If 1t had been a shock to the people
of the Bar Hook when lacks horse
came in, the finding of lacks body
was a bombshell in truth. Examination
established definitely in the minds of
them all that lacks death could have
occurred at no other time than that
ascribed to the death of Mason; for
the same factors which had eStab-
lished the time of Mason's death ap-
piled here also-the time Of snowfall,
and the brief hour during which the
Bar Hook had been deserted before
the fall of the snow.
Campo Ragland made repeated and
insistent efforts to get in touch with
the sheriff by phone, but Floyd Hopper
was not in Waterman, nor could he be
located. Under the intense pressure
of the implications carried by the I'M
welcome discovery, the Bar Hook peO-
pie found that they had little to say to
each other. More than the death of
cowboy cook was involved here. No
one could any longer suggest that Ma
sons death was an accident. The man
whose death so desperately weakened
the position of rimrock cattle had been
murdered-almosr within the shadow
Of this house.
Yet, until the sheriff could be To-
Gated, there seemed to be nothing that
they could do that night but wait.
Kentucky had hoped to satisfy him
self as to what had actually happened
in the Mason case before the irresisti-
BILE march of events brought disaster
to the Bar Hook. Instead, all the rim
rock you'd know tomorrow that the
Bar Hook had been the scene, not of an
accidental death, but of murder, the
result of which promised to ruin half
the brands of Wolf Bench.
He was unable to make Roadway
toward Encouragement of what he
knew. 1t would have been easy to sug-
gest that Joe st. Marie, who had lied
about his whereabouts at the hour of
the crime, might have killed lack San
ders as the result of some obscure
quarrel and then killed Mason because
Mason was witness. This did not,
however, explain Jean Raglands theft
of the bullet that killed Mason; nor
her alarm over the fact that picture
had been stolen from frame nor her
anxiety to conceal this loss from her
father.
What he knew was that Jean was
ineXtricably involved in a murder
which was a disaster to all Of Wolf
murder the SO herds were pouring
across the Bar Hook range. For the
present he had to admit that he was
sure of nothing more. He closed his
mind to the puzzle, and tried to browse.

Lighter in weight are the crepecord
seersucker variations with corded lines
emphasizing the color stripes in either
pastel or high shades. You will have
a difficult time choosing between these
colorful stripe and the gay seersucker
plaids. A dress of each is the best
solution to this problem.
Flaxon batistes, which you probably
wore in rosebud-sprigged prints when
you wore braids and hair ribbons, are
just as cool and sheer and dainty as
ever. This year they are especially
chic in new lively plaid and floral de-
signs. The best of it is you can de-
pend on them being in reliable fast
colors.
That smart tailored budget frock
which we are picturing to the right
is made of one of the fashionable
flaxon batistes in very sheer yet firm
stripes. You will enjoy dress like
this for summer daytime and specta-
tor-sports wear. One of the fascina-
tons Of stripes is they make up so
effectively. The gown illustrated is no
exception to the rule. This striped
batiste comes in red or blue with
white or yellow, also brown with
orange. The tie and belt of organdie
in a matching shade add pleasing
trimming touch. Pleated short sleeves
and buttons all the way down the front
are nice details.
The little girl is wearing pretty
frock which is made of lightweight
crossbar cotton seersucker in red and
white. The collar and pocket are
piped with bright red.

Bob Elliot, owner of the adjoining
range, drives his cattle on the Bar
Hook range. Lee Bishop, Ragland's
ranch boss, expostulates, and Bill Nc

influence Jean to arouse her father.

Peasant Influence Noted
In Various Dress Items

The peasant influence is felt in all
sorts of angles of female attire this
season. Blouses go in for great big
sleeves that are banded tight at the
wrist, embroidery of peasant motive
is used on dresses and good-looking
sports oxfords have thick soles stitched
in hemp.
One of the smartest results Of the
"back-to-the-soil movement is q two
piece Paquin daytime dress in a soft
shade of blue. The straight skirt is
given fulness by small kick pleats In
front. The rounded high neck is formed
by a sunburst of wide tucks and Is
edged by band of blue pearls and
metal which continues on the left
shoulder to form an epaulette.

The new gold flower-jewelry is so
attractive you will fall in love with it
at first sight. The centers of the
flowers are of turquoise, coral and
pearls. The clips fastening this charm
ing black lace-and-net cape with match
ing halo hat which has large clip
at the back, the bracelets and the
ornaments on the lace bag show how
decorative and flattering touch these
pretty jewelcentered gold flowers i'm
part to milady's costume. With the
now-so-fashionable white chiffon even
ing gowns you couldn't think of any
thing more pleasing to wear than a
gold flower jewelry ensemble as here
pictured. This stunning lace cape-and-
hat ensemble was shown In the style
revue in connection with the Lace ball
recently given in New York.

- so lovely as they are this
year, when their new fashion
Importance has caused them to
be styled as carefully and as beauti-
fully, and often as formally as the
most expensive silks. They have bios
somed forth in the stores in such allur-
ing array that even if you have for
gotten how to thread the bobbin of
your sewing machine. you will find
yourself buying dress-lengths for your
own sports and daytime summer
clothes and for pretty frocks for your
little girl.
With cottons being declared so really
high-fashion this season, at the same
time SO practical and inexpensive, it is
no wonder they are creating such a
furore in the style realm, they are
simply irresistible. Then, too, they
include such wide variety of weaves
to choose from, there is not the slight
est difficulty in finding proper kind
for any pattern you may have selected.
Seersuckers are of course big news
and there are several types that
merit attention for street and sports
wear. The shiroshakker plaids, in
very fine-crinkled seersucker, are
equally attractive in two tones Of one
color or in vari-colored designs in bold
or small patterns. The sports dress,
to the left in the group illustrated, is
made of this sort of plaid seersucker.
1t buttons all the way down the back
and proves it's practicability in that it
may be worn separately or over a play
suit of halter bodice and shorts. The
ensemble is smart for beach, bicycling
or tennis. Anyone who can sew even
little bit can easily make this simply
though effectively styled dress.

Time. One afternoon a wrecker rushed
to the superintendent of the mine car
rying hunk of rock. 1t was silver
ore, assaying $500 a ton. Hastily a
small shaft was driven into the ground
nearby; mining engineers rushed from
San Francisco. The discovery Of a
"lost bonanza" was confirmed. Once
more Virginia City was boom town.
Piute squaws came down out of the
hills. Divorces in fur coats motored
over from Reno. But no lucky prospec-
tor stood to profit. The mineral rights
of the whole area have long belonged
to great mining companies.

MRS. NELLIE STULL, love ex-

some fortune through her marriage
bureau in Elyria. O.. is out on a
western hunt for big game.
Herds Of unfettered men fly be-
fore her. The prairies echo the
thunder Of frightened feet. Her raids
are taking her into every city and
hamlet. through the canyons and
gullies Of Arizona and New Mexico,
into the cotton patches Of Okla
homa, and over the vast reaches Of
Texas. ANY place, in short. where
the timid male may be hiding. Since
the news Of her coming has been
noised about the men are panic
stricken. They Turk in thickets,
hide behind sand dunes, skulk in
and out among oil derricks and
barriCade themselves in their offices.
For Mrs. Stull is no sneaker. Like
those who hunt elephants. she beats
the bushes as she advances. A
hallOO Of newspaper publicity pre-
cedes her.
She hopes for a big bag this time

So, with admirable optimi' :, the

also that bachelors grow more coy

them are practical, for having firm
faith in the power. Of women to
bind them fast. once they are
brought within communicable dis
lance, she stalks them with logged
determination.
The West, however, Is not show

there are 300 eligible males in the
region, the native spinsters will not
surrender them without a struggle.
The prairies breed strong women
as well as strong men, and hint

BUSES APPROVED
FOR NEARBY LINES
Maryland Body Authorizes
Substitution for
TroIIeys.
By the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, July 1.-THE State
Public Service Commission today is
sued an order to the Capital Transit
Co. of Washington authorizing substi-
tuition of bus service for street car lines
to Maryland points adjacent to the
National Capital.
Changes will be made in service from
the District of Columbia line to Chevy
Chase, Kensington and Garrett Park
on one route and from the District
line to Rockville on Wisconsin avenue.
Public hearings were held in June
at which the communities affected ap-
proved the proposed changes. The
Transit Co. asserted it would make the
change about September l.
Tracks used by present trolley lines
are to be removed and in some places
the right of way is to be paved to
widen the roads. Rockville demanded
that the tracks into the town be
eliminated and concrete poured to
make the section conform with the
towns general paving plan.
Kensington and Garrett Park op-
posed the plan until the proposed bus
service was extended to include these
communities.
