floor, showed him into the cage and
banked and locked the door.

mind" Lande snapped. IT'LL you do,

figure that concealing the whereabouts
of any wanted man is as good as work

Weber slumped back on the hard
bunk. His eyes bulged and he blub-
bered his indignation like a greenhorn
ducked in a pond. A fine kettle of
fish! Name the outlaw in the Spanish
clothes and scarlet neckerchief-mask,
and Lande himself might make a de-
termined effort to lasso the prize
money. Keep silent, and he would
stay locked up here-and with all his
plans made!

reason for that man Bartle to lie
like that?"
You mean he lied on purpose"
Young Aldman frowned. mot Mr..
Bartle. You're wrong there. He's
fine man. He"
He'll have chance to prove that

The old man stepped forward. "Im
Dan'l Nelson, friend of the Aldmans
"a tobacco farmer myself" he said.
You've got no reason to quarrel with
Bartle, unless you are in cahoots with
beefmen. Bartle's all the boy claims
he is, and more. He brought us here
to this palley, gave US plenty of credit
for tools and things to build with"
"Have it your way, Mr.. Nelson"
Valdez shrugged. "But if this man
Bartle should by any chance be respon-
sible for what l saw on Don Attero's
Cross, and for what happened on this
farm last night, then it's certain that
some other Good Samaritan will have
to stake you folks to things-somebody
who will not want to be repaid with
blood"
He sank upon the bed and brushed
the sandy hair back from Straw AID
mans eyes.
"Now," he said, "tell me what you
know, son. Every thing-from the day
you first knew you were going to settle
here in Deep Water Valley until the
minute you saw me come in that door,"
Young Aldman's face changed, as if
life and confidence had flowed back
into him. He even smiled a little.
Sheriff Bill Lande ended a long
vigil, spat a wad of tobacco into the
cold stove and banged down the lid.
"No fool like an old fool" he said
aloud. "What in thunderation ever
made me think that Pete Haskell or
Tim Callan would try and kill Russ
Bartle? Should have known that
plenty of smoke means DANCED little
fire."

He strobe across the rambling shack
that served as home, office and GALA

on the bed and kicked off his boots. He
had peeled off his shirt and pants and
had started to get under the blankets
when he stopped short, listening.
Was that a rider pulling up outside?
At this hour? Lande snorted and went
toward the door in bare feet and
underwear.
The stranger at the door was
man in store clothes Though IN
known to Sheriff Lande, he was Clark
Weber, newly arrived settler in Deep
Water Valley.
The sheriff opened the door for his
visitor to enter and lit the oil lamp.
"Well, sir?" he snapped.
81 thought maybe you'd give me
little official information" Weber said
guardedly.

For a second I.ande's rage blazed in

Then he sprinted to throw open the

simple-brained squirt, if you lifted a
finger against that red-headed hombre
he'd eat you -saltless-before you
could sneeze! You just better thank
me for locking you up. I'm saving

"But I did see him." Weber insisted.

Lande swung his feet to the floor "He

"Yeah," Weber admitted. 81 came
upon him just after he had finished
firing a tobacco drying shed. And
also believe he hung young fellow
on Don Attero's Cross"
The sheriff sat refectively on the
edge of his bed, not answering. Then
Weber could hear the stamping of feet
getting into tight boots.
"If you're lying, hombre," the
sheriff growled, "plenty of skin will be

Clark Weber was left alone with his
thoughts when the sheriff stalked out,
and it was long after daylight before
the disgruntled lawman returned. He
had not found Ell Caballero Rojo-he
had not much expected he woodland
tlere seemed no advantage in longer
keeping his prisoner in thS jusgado.
More than likely the Fastener did not
have as much to go on as the sheriff
himself, at that.
Silently Sheriff Lande turned Clark
Weber loose, and as wordlessly the
man made all haste in getting away
from the Jail. But he did not leave
tbe cow town. All day he stalked it,
making every acquaintance he could,
until he was certain he had tapped

lero Rojo.
Shortly before dusk he ended his
ouest with a visit to Russ Bartle.
When that was over, Weber was con-
WINGED of two things-that the banker
tobacco farmer was firm believer in
law; order and justice; and that he
was a most generous man.
For Bartle had cursed the scarlet
sashed, scarlet-masked rider heartily,
and had promised Weber that if he
succeeded in capturing Ell Caballero
Roio. the balance due on the Maxon-
Weber tract of land in the north end
of the valley would be wiped out.
Dusk found Weber patrolling be-

.Juanita Does Some
Fast Thinking

The shock sent both of them to the
ground in a tangled mass of arms and
legs. Juanita fighting with surprised
fury until solid blows with gun butt
set off the shooting stars before her
ewes and dropped her in senseless
heap.
Gasping for breath, Weber worked
franticaIly to bind his prisoners wrists
and ankles Then he Strengthened, to re-
cover his breath. He was himself again
before the girl in the boys clothing
stirred, struggled to rise, but relaxed
in the face of gun.
"Why do you do this to me?" she de-
manded angrily, enraged more a herself
than at Weber.
Uios! What fool she had been to
LET the heat of the chase blind her to
this trap! And back there in the Aid

Weber drawled, and laughed trium-
phantly. I'm going to use you to bait
q trap for your friend, Ell Caballero
Roio. His pelt is worth real money"
Juanita trembled with fury. After all
their efforts at secrecy someone at last
knew of her connection with the sea rlet-
masked rider!
She was thinking swiftly. Somehow
she would have to convince him he was
in error.
"El Caballero Rojo?" she repeated
plaintively. "Senor makes the mistake.
