Tom Haveril's foreman, a slack
jawed, slope-browed killer.
Barry obeyed, saying nothing,
his eyes darling everywhere at
once, seeking to make out how
many there were, looking for
some avenue of escape.
Lucy felt gun barrel driven
into her side. A man called sharp
ly to her, "Get your paws up
tool"
I'm Lucy Blue. am Mrs.
Tom Haveril. Tom Haverlps wife.
We were married just tonight"
Lucy ran on excitedly: you've
got Sarboe? You're not to hurt
him, you know"
"Sure know! Tom wants him
to talk first. I'm wondering II
Sarboe'Il ever talk again! He's so
scared he can't saw a word. This
here is Barry Haveril, amt it,"
eyes," answered Lucy hurried
ly. "And you're not to hurt him
either, Jake. Tom wants him to
talk, too"
"Say! You're all right" laughed
Jake Goodby, 'Mrs. Tom now,
huh? Say that's fine"
Disarmed, Barry came down
out of the saddle and stood still
as a rope was double-hitched
about his wrists and his hands
were tied at his back. Six or
eight of Tom Haverips young he'll
lions dragged him off to join Sar-
Doe where the latter, bound like
himself, was propped up against
a big rock.
He jammed his shoulder
against Sarboe's by way of COM
panionable greeting and spoke for
the first time.
"They got us all right, sarboe,
he said disgustedly. Like a fool
I rode with my eyes shut"
Sarboe, writing in his bonds,
could only grunt.
Barry could hear Lucy's voice,
and it seemed to him that she
had never been so gay. After a
while he heard her say: "Jake, !
want to talk with you"
Barry saw Lucy and Jake
Goodby move somewhat apart,
toward the farther rim of the un-
certain circle of Pickering fire
light, to sit on a log and talk to-
gether.
Jake had Barry's gun, dangling
it by it's heavy belt.
''Let me see it," said Lucy.
"How would I look, wearing a
gun like that"
Jake admiring, let her buckle
the weapon about her slim waist
so that it banked low down on
her thigh. "Say, why don't youn
me ever gang up afore now" he
said playfully.
"You mustn't forget that I'm
married now" laughed Lucy.
And there, she thought, both
frightened and exhilarated, she
had set her hand to the plow.
She even said to herself, II am
making myself as cheap as a dir
ty rag doll"
"Aw," said Jake, ''yuh amt
secretly married yet. JUS mar
ried tonight, an already Tom lets
you fly loose? Me, if I was Tom,
I wouldn't Of"
Lucy looked at the knot of men
loafing beyond the fire.
"There's no need for them to
stay any longer" said Lucy.

and then barked out to the Judge
and Tom Haveril: 'Yuh heard 1t?

Lucy" said Barry, first
you've got to believe this: Tom
Haveril is the Laredo Kid"
She scoffed at him. Then she
said; brightly beautiful, as she, SO
much smaller than he gave the
impression of looking down on
him from some lofty height,
''Tom told me all that he knows
about you as we drove here to-
night"
"He's tried to make you think
that I'm Laredo?"
He heard the three men out on
the back porch; he heard a door
close. A moment later Timberllne
called out, Ready to ride when
you are, Shutdown"
At that Barry suddenly caught
Lucy up in his arms and ran
with her. She tried to scream; he
clamped his glib hand tight over
her mouth. She bit him but he
kept her still. He threw her up
into the Judges saddle, held her
with one hand while he managed
his own horse and mounted, then
roared out to Timberline:
'sRide, pardner! Sock your
spurs in and ride"
He started his own horse and
the Judges off at run, heading
back toward the mountains.
It was a mad thing to do, but
mad ventures have way OF be-
ing won. After them, not know
ing what it was all about, yelling
like a Comanche, came old Tim
berline.
'I love you, and you'd better
know it," said Barry.

Timberline.-
"Dcn't know. Oh. I'm all right,
and I'm taking good care of Lucy

Barry stopped to blow the
hard-ridden horses; he had also a
thought to Lucy whom he had
put through a difficult thirty
minutes.
"I'm not afraid of you!" said
Lucy.
"I'm glad of that, Lucy" said
Barry gently. 'Of course there's
no reason why you should be
afraid of me, but I thought you
might be anyhow. I'm glad"
That made her defiance seem
a small, unnecessary thing, and
so it angered her.

There are ways and ways of frying

Her method is to skin the tender
young chicken she is going to fry,
salt and pepper each piece, dip each in
flour, and then put the pieces into the
hot grease made of half butter, half
lard. For one small chicken the pro-
portions are about two tablespoons of

to resort to the old fashioned method
of using a pie tin for the cover, and
weighing that down with an iron,
in order to insure that the grease will
cook all the pieces as evenly as possible.

chicken is well-browned." If you are

PEACH CROP SAID
TO BE- 4 GOOD ONE
Trees Reported Bearing
More Fruit Than
Last Season

In a general review Of Washing
ton County's peach crop, County
Agent M. D. Moore states that the
prospects seem to be, at this par
ticular time, that this years
crop will be larger than that of
last year.
A few of the very early varieties
such as the Red Bird and Early
June, are already here but not in
any quantities. These very early
varieties are not classed among
the staple market kinds.
About the first Of August such
varieties as the Belle of Georgia,
Slappy, Carmen and some others.
will be ripe; however the stand
ards for market, such as the Ell
berta, will not come in until after
those above mentioned.
Washington county peaches, es-
pecially those raised in mountain
soil, or in contiguous sections,
have a high reputation in the mar
kets of Pittsburgh, Philadelphia,
New York and other places.
In Franklin County, Pa, there
are indications of a peach crop of
from 20 to Is peg cent heavier than
last years yield.

COUNTY BOARD TO
NAME ASSESSORS
Work To Last About Six
Months and Cost
So, 900.

The Board of County Commits
sioners will name between 60 and
70 assessors, probably at their
weekly meeting next Tuesday, it
was learned today. To date more
than $50 applications for these DO
sitions have been received by the
commissioners. it was said, and
this number will be increased be-
tore the next meeting of the com
missioners.
Work OF reassessing property in
HagerstOwn and Washington coun-
ty will require about five months
according to Guy Gantz, supervis-
or of assessments for the county.
Each district will be assigned as
SCISSORS, according to the size of
the district. Inasmuch as many
districts are small in area, much
OF the work will be completed
within short period of time. On
the other hand those districts in
which much real estate is located
the assessors will be employed for
a longer period of time.
No hearings on assessments will
be held until after the work has
been completed. At that time no.
tees will be sent property owners
listing the assessments and calling
attention to the owners privilege
to enter a protest before the COM
missiOners.
The total cost of the reassess-
ment work is estimated at about
$4,000.

NEW WHEAT COMING
IN TO ELEVATORS
Indications Are That The
Crop in Washington
County Is Short

Elevators of Washington County
have already received some wheat
from this years crop. D. A Stick
ell & Sons, at their elevator in
this city and the elevator at
Charlton have to date gotten in
approximately 1900 bushels of
wheat. The wheat is reported
rather damp but otherwise the
quality seems to be good. The
market price paid for new wheat
is around IS and IS cents per BUSH
ell at the present time.
A survey of the wheat fields
shows some sections heavily COW
cred with shocks while some fields
can be seen which are very sparse
ly dotted with the shocks.
One elevator proprietor reports
that from the information he gets
from his own district and other
sections of the county the wheat
yield will be considerably below
normal crop. 1t is also stated THAI
the amount of straw does not
prove anything, as there is a great
deal of straw this year in proper
ton to the wheat which is thresh-
ed from it.

lIlC WiiSiS NNN'-J
At the "protest meeting" last
week in City Hall, one OF the
speakers told the Street Com
missioners that failure on the
part of the Police Department
to put an end TO burgIaries in
Haqerstown would mean that
nearby towns would soon start
"pokin' fun at u.s." And now, by
uolIy, it has started. Down in
Frederick Town rumor has it
that the citizens of the North
End Of HagerstoWn, where the
providers are most active, have
been advised to cut down their
trees and shrubbery, in order to
assist the COPS in snagging this
bold, bold bad man! And all
these years we thought Freder-
lex was a good, congenial, low
able, sincere, sympathetic and
neighborIy neighbor! One of
these days they're gonna make
us real mad and then we'll
publish the truth about this
Barbara Fritche gag!
Several members of the Re-
publican State Central Commit
tee are showing some concern
over the minority appointment
to be made on the permanent
registration board. Well, boys,
it's really refreshing to see
some life over on your side of
the river! We haven't heard
a peep out of that committee
since shortly after the Nice in
auguration!
Another wave of appointments
will soon be sent over the top
by Chief Pangborn. That ap-
pointment to the State Roads
Commission was only one Of four
to be served up by the Cover
nor's personal representative in
Western Maryland. The other
three, a peek into the blue book
shows, are: A clerk to the Ii
uuor License Board; an investi-
GATOR for the same office and an
Orphans Court Judge to fill the
vacancy created by the death of
Judge Beard. There is no dearth
of applicants, and the CHIEFS
biggest problem is that of elm
