If one is interested in the rare and
strange in dogs, and is willing to pay
for it, he may find within a radius
of Is or 20 miles of the city such
strange breeds as Afghan hounds,
French poodles, Dandie Dinmont ter
riers, Welsh terriers, Kerry blues, Bed
lingtons, Shetland sheepdogs, japanese
spaniels, pugs and score of others
not frequently seen except at dog
shows.
Fine Specimens Here.
OF the more common breeds, such
as Boston terriers, cocker spaniels, wire
fox terriers, Scottish terriers and
dachshundes, there are numbers of ken
nels. And in these breeds, as well as
the more rare ones, one can find here
some of the finest specimens in the
country.
The number Of canine cham
pions owned in and near WASH
ington is surprising.
Both Mrs. Groves and Mrs. Cornet
own dachshund champions. The
Wirehaven Kennels own a number of
cocker spaniels that have made their
titles in the stiffest competition. Bill
McIlwaine and Mrs Anderson each
own chow champions.
Ruffcote Kennels own several Dandie
Dinmont champions, as does Mrs. 10y
Lee Lewis. There is wire-hair cham
pion at the Adlea Kennels and a num-
ber of Boston terrier champions as
we'll as a miniature schnauzer champ
at Aspin Hill Beech Tree Farm has
a Shetland sheepdog champion
Doubtlessly there are many more that
could be mentioned.
Since the making of a dog cham
pion requires frequent attendance al
dog shows, and stiff competition within
the breed, it is evident that there ara
many real fanciers in the neighbor.

Army Takes Pride in Great Naval Guns;
Rifles Throw Shells Twenty-Six Miles

The army uses navy guns to
guard Oahu, the island on which
lies the largest military concentra-
ton under the American flag, writes
Honolulu United Press CORE
spondent.
This paradox Of coast defense is
due to diplomats and the formula
ton of the Washington Treaty. The
treaty banned the addition of six
teen-inch guns to battleships, so the
surplus rifles were turned over to
the army.
Two of these guns, mounted on
carriages constructed by the army's
Ordnance department, were proof
fired recently at Fort Barrette, 20
miles west Of Honolulu, guarding
the western approach to the island.
Their performance showed strik-
ingly their defense capabilities in
time Of emergency. Each is capable
Of hurting a 2,100-pound projectile
over a maximum range Of $4,000
yards-nearly 26 miles. They can
be swung around and elevated to a
maximum Of 55 degrees.
Hence they could drop shell at
nearly any spot on line described
by the perimeter of the island,
guarding it from attack from vir-
tually every side.
The guns weigh 40 tons each and
are as large as any in the world.

SYNOPSIS
Y ALAN LEMAY

Billy Wheeler, wealthy young cattle.
man, arrives at the 81 ranch, summoned
by his friend Horse Dunn, it's elderly
and quick-tempered owner, because of
mysterious murder. Billy is in love
: with Dunn's niece Marian, whom he has
moi. seen for two years. She had re-
jected his suit and is still aloof. Dunn s
ranch Is surrounded by enemies, includ.
Ing Link Bender, Pinto Halliday and Sam
efforts to build cattle kingdom. Dunn
directs his cow hands, Val Douglas,
Tulare Callahan and others to search
tor the killers horse. He explains to
Billy that the morning before he had
come upon bloodstained ground at Short
Creek and found the trail of shod and
unshod horse. The shod horse's rider
peared. Link Bender had arrived at
the scene and read the signs the way he
had. Dunn reveals that because of a
financial crisis the ranch might be in
jeopardy; his enemies may make trou-
BILE. since Sheriff Walt Amos is friendly
with them. He says he has asked Old
Man Coffee, the country's best trailer,
to join them. Dunn and Billy meet
Amos, Link Bender, his son the Kid"
at Short Creek. Bender has found the
slain mans horse, but the saddle is
missing. Almost systematically, cattle
attracted to the scene by the blood
stained ground, stamp out all the traces.
Dunn is angered when Amos tells him
not to leave the county. Following an
argument, Bender draws his gun but
Dunn wounds him in the arm. Back at
the ranch Old Man Coffee arrives with
pack of hounds. Coffee goes in search
of the dead mans saddle. Dunn tells
Billy that Marian is incensed at him for
trying to settle disputes by bloodshed.
He reveals that the ranch is really hers,
also that he recently sold his own ranch
In Arizona and that his partner, Bob
Flagg, is en- route with the money. Billy
accompanies Marian on ride to Short
Creek. "Kid" Bender, now q deputy,
rides up. They have an argument,
and by a trick Bender tries to shoot him.
Billy saves himself by plunging against
Bender's pony and "the Kid" is injured.
Coffee returns to the ranch with the
saddle and reveals that Cayuse Cayetano
is on the trail for Sheriff Amos. The
saddle belonged to Lon Magoon, small.
time cattle thief. Bill learns he is to
be arrested for assaulting kid" Bender.
On the sheriffs orders, Billy and the
ranchmen drive into Inspiration. On the
way, Coffee tells him that the murder
victim was not shot by the man riding
with him. Billy Is disturbed when Mari.
an seems to be interested in Val Douglas.
At hearing before Justice Shafer, the
sheriff, aided by Dunn's enemies, tries
to incriminate Billy for attacking kid"
Bender.

Where Sulphur Is Found

While sulphur compounds are
widely spread throughout the earth's
crust, the free element occurs in
appreciable amounts only in a few
regions. Low-grade deposits Of it are
found near the volcanic regions of
Sicily and Japan. Exceedingly pure
beds Of it occur deep in the ground
in Louisiana and Texas; here it is
mined by sinking pipes to the beds,
melting the sulphur with live steam,
and then pumping it to the surface
as a liquid. Most Of the sulphur
brought out Of the ground does not
come from sulphur mines, but is
present as an impurity in coal and
petroleum.

Army experts believe they are OF
infinitely more value for defense
than the lighter, mobile anti-aircraft
guns and indicate they may recon-
mend construction of similar bat
teries at other points.
A similar battery at Fort Weaver
now guards the entrance to Pearl
Harbor, the navy's mighty Pacific
base.
These guns are capable of firing
200 rounds without being disman-
tied. Thus each of them could
throw 200 tons Of steel at an enemy
fleet.

Wheeler.

gan, ''to let this

Shafer, cor take a contempt of

Outside there now rose disturb
ance as a dust-crusted car came
careening down the street; it half
spun as it skidded to a stop in the
middle of the roadway in front of
Shafer's office. Sam Caldwell,
square-set, heavy-necked ally of
Link Bender, forged his way
through the crowd and came Shout
dering up the steps. Inside and out
side the quiet broke into mumbling
disorder.
"You want me to finish with cross
questioning this Witness" the sher-
iff was demanding of the Judge, cor
not? If you want me to clear this
court"
'I've never had to clear a court
yet" said Shafer. "I-what's going
on here?"
He sat back and stared scowling
at the disturbance which set the

CHAPTER vI-Continued

They were at the point of the
whole thing, now. If the 81 had
chance, it depended on the activity
of Wheeler, who, with his credit
and his COW finance connections,
might gain time for Horse Dunn.
Not the danger of ultimate convic-
ton, but delay on trumped-up
charge was what Wheeler feared.
Horse Dunn snarled in his throat,
and there was an instant's silence.
Nothing could have shown the force
of the man, and the resented power
he held, better than that! "Order!"
said Judge Shafer, looking startled.
"Order in the COURT" His command
sounded fantastic in that quiet
room, for Dunn said nothing.
This" Amos went on, "is a
wealthy man, as folks around here
go. And he's lined up with wealthy
outfit. But it's people like him that
raise the hell around here, always
water-hogging, always roughing the
range. We can't hardly get through

If this guy can pull gun on an

and then walk out Of here, free and
easy-then we aren't going to have
any law at all, and I can't answer
for it. That's all got to say"
"You want to say anything,
Wheeler?" Shafer asked.
"Judge, if it's got so man can't
even put up bail while he waits for
trial in district court, then there's
no justice left"
"ru decide that" Shafer said
tartly. IF it's come to pass

"Now you look here" Horse Dunn

CHAPTER VII

AS word of Cayuss Cayetano's
murder swept through the street,
the loosely grouped crowd shifted
and seemed to seethe, gathering in
knots. The half-breed tracker had
been loved by none, respected by
none; but his trail genius was un-
disputed, and it had been widely
rumored that he was very close to
important revelations. Half dozen
men tried to follow Sam Caldwell
into the already-crowded county Of
fee, forcing in through a consid-
cradle number of the crowd inside
who had Immediately started to
make their way out.
Though it was Judge Shafer's
boast that he had never had to clear
court in his life, he was induced
to do so now.
IF you've got your court clear,
let's have ORDER" said Judge Sha-
fer. II mean to get this over with.
Wheeler, is your defense finished?"
"You yourself called the only eye
witness here, and the only witness
worth a whoop," Wheeler said.
"That ought to be defense enough
for any man."
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1938-03-18

"You got anything more to say,
sheriff."
Get 1t over with" snapped the
sheriff. eff you're going to let in
testimony like that last, can't stop
you. And I've got other work to
do"
"This is as unsatisfactory case
as I've ever seen on this bench"
Judge Shafer said. Something's
wrong-something's very wrong. I'd
like to reserve decision and think it
over"
Reserve, hell! Let's have it, one
way or the other" Amos demanded.
"All right! All right! Have it your
own way! Case dismissed!"
Sheriff Walt Amos angrily crashed
his open hand upon the table top and
stood up. There's sweet deci-
sion!''
"Any other court would give you
contempt for that" said Shafer
waspishly. 1.-THE court stands adj
journed!"
He crammed his papers into his
brief case and stalked out, looking
angry, insulted, and anxious to get
away from there. Nobody spoke to
him or interfered with him as he
went down the steps and out of sight
in the street, moving at hurried
amble.
Sam Caldwell came back in,
bringing with him Pinto Halliday
and Link Bender, their deputies
badges half hidden, but evident.
"You want me?'' said Link.
"Stick around here. Where's Rufe
Deane?"
Hell be here in minute
There's other work to do" said
Link Bender, "that can't be done
here. I better be getting at It'll"
"Stay here" said Walt Amos
shortly.
Link Bender stared at him mo-
ment, then leaned against the wall,
his dark hawk face hard and tight
Tipped.
IF you're through with us we'll
be leaving" said Horse Dunn.
"I'm not through with you. I'll
tell you when I'm through"
you'll have to let my wagon boss
go, SOS he can drive my niece back
to the ranch," Horse Dunn told him.
The sheriff looked at Dunn for
moment, without seeming to see
him; he appeared to be listening,
or weighing other things. Gall right.
On condition that he Immediately
gets out of town. An hour from now
/ don't want to find he's still here"
"I'll be out of here, all right" Val
Douglas said.
''Well, I'll see you start. You
ready, Miss DUNN"
Better take my roadster, Mari
an" Billy Wheeler said. He gave
her the key, and she accepted it
without meeting his eyes.
After Marian and Val left Sheriff
Walt Amos spoke.
Dunn he said at once, "where
was Val Douglas yesterday"
"He was in Nine-Mile Valley"
Dunn said.

whole room in motion as Sam Cald-
well thrust his way through the door
and up to the table. Reaching it,
Caldwell jerked off his big hat, and
threw it on the table like an old-time
fighter throwing his hat into the
ring. His face was steaming red,
marked with dust-muddied sweat.
Caldwell looked at Judge Shafer
heavily, with the dislike that hard
riding cattlemen have for men
whom they consider Intellectual.
There's man been killed-anoth-
er, by God!" he said. "Cut in two
with shotgun at Ace Springs"
Walt Amos said sharply, Sam,
who's killed."

yesterday"

mot so far"
But riding toward Santiam he'd
be going just the opposite way from
Ace Springs, wouldn't he?"
whats that got to do with it?"
Toward Santiam," said the sher-
iff, twas where he said he was,
when I asked him a while ago.
What's your answer to that?"
The two men eyed each other. If
he said he was up toward Santiam,
he was probably up toward Santi-
am" Dunn said.
The sheriff grunted and half
grinned, without humor. Elbow
lucky. With a man dead at Ace
Springs, naturally Douglas was as
far away as he could get! Where
were you, Wheeler?"
One by one they each gave their
answers, tersely, without concili-
alton, as the same question was put
to each.
II want you boys" the sheriff said
to his deputies, "to remember what
these boys have said"
"You figure to keep us here all
night" Horse Dunn demanded.
'I'm going to turn you out of here
in ten minutes" Amos said.
Rufe Deane, swinging up the
wooden steps, was in time to catch
the sheriff's answer. He now thrust
in, his green eyes ugly under his
shaggy sorrel brows. you're going
to what?" he said.
II have no INTENTION" the sheriff
said, "of holding these men on what
we got against 'em so far"
Rufe Deane angered with an OBJ
vious, unexpected violence.
'"These men'll never leave this
town." he said.
II decide that here" said the
sheriff.
Rufe Deane stared at him a mo-
ment longer, green fury in his eyes.
Suddenly he tore off his deputy's
badge and threw it on the floor.
maybe you do" he said. He turned
and went out into the street, the
high l,eels Of his boots dumping
slowly, restrained; but as he dis
appeared from view they heard his
step quicken on the board walk.
: Walt Amos said, ".You want that
badge, Sam?"
Sam Caldwell hesitated a mo-
ment. "All right" he said.
The sheriff turned on his remain
ing deputies. IF either of you want
to string with Rufe Deane, now's
the time to say so! Because the next
job of this office is to guarantee
these men safe conduct out of
town."
Walt" said Link Bender, "I'm
for you and always have been; and
there's mighty few jobs I'd back
off from as a peace officer. But I
don't know as I can bring myself to
turn my hand to that!"
Horse Dunn spoke up, his voice
rumbling in his chest. "Who the
hell wants safe conduct?" he said
contemptuously. when you're tired
of jawing, We'll move on out"
