it.; one Of the cowboys himself now.
Listen, kid, I'm not hurrawing!
I'm serious, can't you understand :?
Now answer me carefully-was she
dead or not ?"
EFF she was, Mistuh Shot, den l
sho seen a ghost in daytime!
Whoo"
| "You mean"
"She was walking along wild Miss
Sally and Mistuh Jerry. He had his
arm aroun' her, friendly like,
and"
Why"
"Suh?"
"Why did he have his arm around
her? Was she-was he carrying
her? Or helping her? Couldn't she
talk? ?"
"Yas, sub, she was laughing and
talking sweet talk to him, ontil
Miss Sally She rush out and cry"
"Um," murmured Shot Rogers
then. He felt infinite relief. Four
men had been killed in the recent
Phantom ranch trouble with rus
tiers. It was inconceivable that a
harmless girl, stranger, should be
harmed, but he had been RESPONSE
BILE for sending her alone to the
ranch from Blanco and he had been
almost beside himself with worry.
What happened to her, Mid
night? ?" he went on. That was a
new horse of mine, all right, but he
was trustworthy And I saw she
could ride. Did he throw her, or
fall ? Or what"
II never asked nobody. Mistuh
Shot, suh."
The matter stood that way until
the troop of riders reined in at the
Brace home itself. Mrs. Brazee
had heard them coming. When she
ran out to greet her husband and
his friends, they expected the
worst. They didn't see Jerry Dale
smiling happily on the porch.
What is it, Sally?" George Bra
zee demanded, calmly.
George, she was kidnapped! BY
MeXicans!"
The men all were alert, not even
dismounting, IN their intense in
terest. Shot Rogers edged for
ward.

What happened?"
She gave every detail she knew,
but hers was secondhand informa-
ton and so presently Lorena her.
self was brought out to talk with
them. A load seemed to be lifted
off the men when they saw. not a
corpse or near-dead person. but a
bright and smiling young woman,
exceptionally pretty Lorena had
eaten amazingly, topped the meal
with two cups Of coffee and two
hours in bed. Bruises still ached
but she felt GOOD enough to ignore
the pain.
She shook hands with every one
of the men, adding special thanks
to Rogers for his aid the day be-
fore. And then she had to face a
siege Of questioning which took
nearly ali hour.
"Well, sir" her Uncle George

remarked at last, you PROBABLY

honey, but 1 don't know why you
weren't killed when you jumped off
that cliff. I know the stretch of

there. Must be SO or 60 feet. You've
got some Of your Aunt Sally's
spunk!"
II hit in the soft tree foliage, as
I told you. And the sand was soft.
I counted on them before hand"
The men all were admiring her,
not for her looks alone, but for her
nerve. The talk shifted, however, to
the kidnapers themselves.
"You say they talked about
somebody named Luis Escobar?"
Shot Rogers asked.
Eyes, Mr.. Rogers. It sounded like
that-like Louise Ace-ko- bar"

"Since those men were Mexi-

the death of those men, George"
mo doubt" agreed Mr.. Brazee.
"Oh, George!" Mrs. .srazee spoke
then. Cant something be done to
stop il? I've can't have people
Lorena-anybody's life endangered
this way! Can't We"
1--WE can sure do something, Mrs.
Brazee, ma a'am" an elderly man
declared. We'll ride down every
thief in this country! If the law is
unable to cope with them. why, we
can do it ourselves"
"Certainly!" put in another. IF
there aren't enough ranch men and
sheriff's deputies, we could even get
a bunch of army cavalry to help.
There's men at Fort Huachucha."
Hold on" said Shot Rogers,
earnestly. Didn't I hear you say
once, Mr.. Brazee, that you weren't
sure where the Line is? The line
between the United States and
Mexico?"
That's right, son. My ranch
property goes right to the line, ac-
cording to deed. But it's awfully
rugged and wild up there in the
rough hills. Even the survey is
vague. No markers or anything. It
would cost lot to have it re-sur-
veyed, and"
"Unh-huhm," nodded Shot Rog-
ers. "Well now, another thing-this
