Juanita. The girls wig-wagged speech
was plain. Briefly it said that she had
seen something that needed tracking
down-seen the very person that VAL
DEE himself had just seen.
Twin?" signaled Valdez, to satisfy
himself.
Isl" came the reply, and Juanita
promptly dropped out of sight.
Then Michael Valdez heard the thun-
der of hoofs on his right. The swift
thought caught at his mind-a posse
was galloping in pursuit of the false
Caballero.
A score of horsemen poured into the
arroyo like charging cavalry. Pete
Haskell was in the lead on a mount as
white as fresh snowdrift. Haskell's
eyes narrowed when he saw Valdez in
the trail-a stranger to him-so still
and placidly smoking.
The rancher pulled up. The white
reared and Haskell closed in on Valdez.
Over Haskell's shoulder went a COM
mand to some of the others to keep
on in the direction the fleeing rider
had gone. Then he walked his white

Valdez Sees
His 'T1Uiin'

Before he had Travelled far, though,
Michael Valdez refined up sharp. His
brow furrowed, and he strained his
eyes. He blinked and looked again.
Then what he had thought he had seen
was gone. Mirage? No. Valdez
knew better. And yet
On the cold gray skyline of early
morning, climbing up, crossing the fiat
top and quickly fleeing down again, he
had glimpsed rider traversing knoll
so round it looked like halved ball.
And as suddenly as the rider had
flashed into view, he was gone.
But Michael Valdez had seen. On
the instant he had recognized the Mex
lean clothing, with sparkling conchas,
the red sash and neckerchief worn by
the mysterious rider ahead, and the
cone-shaped hat that in the distance
were exactly like Valdez own.
1t was one of the few occasions upon
which Michael Valdez was frank to
admit bewilderment-and surging cu.i-
osity that he had to fight hard to
down. For as much as. he would have
liked a closer view of that rider ahead,
this was no time for him to go in
vestigating.
.That rider certainly looked like

that, because I'm not left in the dark

His grin faded, though, and his lips
frightened grimy.
"Now," he thought, 1.-THE terrible
stories will start of what 81 Caballero
Rojo has done in Deep Water Valley.
Valdez nudged the blue roam for the
knoll where he had last seen the rider,
determined, after all, to trail the i'm
postor. But in that instant, far to
the north, atop a sharp, crowned hill,
he saw another rider-unmlstakably !

"And that rider in the red sash and
red neckerchief mask we saw out on
the ranger" Valdez asked.
"You see him run from cattemen
who pursue him. He, too, rides water

their game.

"Yeah," he said quietly. II saw
something kind of shiny streakin'
south. Far off. Glad to know it was
a rider. Kind of had me puzzled for
a minute. l was thinking it was some
animal that had got away from some
body maybe"
Haskell spun around to the rem
| nants of his followers.
"Some of you men head SOUTH" he
ordered. "That blasted Ell Caballero
Rojo is not far off !"
The black-haired Uaquero whistled.

asked in establishment, his eyes wide.

mot yet. But he's all set to-un-
less he gets told few things about
what's what. Thing is, there had been
some dirty work down in Deep Water
Valley nearby. This redhead jumps at
the conclusion that we cattlemen are
responsible for it. We're holding a
meeting to try to sort of figure out
how we can get our own troubles
cleared up, and he busts in on it and
shouts that We'll pay for what's been
done. We've got plenty of trouble
without him messing in, so we aim to
get that FL Caballero Rojo before he
does damage to the wrong parties"

hear about that outlaw" he ventured
to put in, she don't put his boot down
until he's sure there is a snake under
foot"
Hes shore made a mistake this
time then," snapped the catteman.
And" His lips frightened again:
well, we got to push on, stranger.
Ride with us?'
Valdez shook his head. Sorry" he
said. But I've got something right
important to attend to in Gold Greek,
and I'm late now in getting there.
Maybe I'll be back this way, and if l
do, I'll be riding with you gents.

Haskell watched Valdez withdraw.
"Well"-the old cattleman looked
over at Luke Wallace-'let's ride"
As Michael rode away from them
slowly, his mind was busy. That other |
Caballero Rojo-he must be pretty |
reckless and impulsive. Or else that |
old cattleman was a liar. Still no man
could buck a crowd of ranchmen like
that and be branded coward.

CHAPTER XII

That's right, hombre," he said in a
low, even friendly voice. "Was there
something you wanted to see me about,
maybe? l reckon you're the man they
call El Caballero Rojo, right enough.
Plumb glad to see you. Howdy."
The masked man gestured sharply.
You've heard that the Aldman dry
ing shed in Deep Water Valley was
burned last night?" he snapped. sand

No" Haskell's eyes widened, and
he scratched his grizzled mop.
And that Pop Aldman was shot
down in cold blood-when he was not
packing a gun?" The questions raped
on, toneless, insistent. "And that
young Sam Aldman was murdered and
nailed to Don Attero's CROSSE"
No" Something accusing in that
relentless fire of Interrogation caught
HaskelPs ear, and slow, angry red dyed
his broad, leathery face.
Then you know all about it now !"
snapped the scarlet-masked accuser.
And l don't expect you to admit that
one of these men here right now obeyed
your orders to have those things
done !"
As those words were flung out, angry
murmur arose from the crowd in the
ranchhouse living room. Haskell him
self was fighting mad. He took quick
step forward, thrust his head out to
face the accuser
Il wouldn't admit lie like that for
you or any man !" he flung out.
Il didn't come here to argue" Ell
Caballero Rojo said coldly. "I'm only
here to tell you that right after the
next fire or killing of tobacco men in
Deep Water Valley you'll finish up
where Sam Aldman fnished-spiked
on Don Attero's Cross"
Ell Caballero Rojo didn't wait for an
answer. Swiftly he backed, with one
hand behind him cropping for the door
way, and eyes on men he knew itched
to go for their guns. But his own
guns were steadily on them, moving in
deadly, menacing arcs. Then, like
top, he pivoted crouched a bare instant
and sprang into the open.
Men snapped alive then, fell over
each other in the packed room, crowd
ing through the door. Guns blazed.
A hail of lead whistled after a racing
horse whose hoofs pounded through the
gray of dawn.
"Got him!" a marksman yelled as
the fleeing horseman swayed. "Got
him sure as guns p
'Sure, you got him bad, Andy"
Haskell yelled as he bolted for the
corral. Come on, boys, all of you!

Johnny's First
Day At School
Is Hard One
BY RUTH MILLETT

An educator recently advised
parents that Johnny's first day
at school is comparable to an
adults first day on a new job.
That is an apt and helpful
comparison. Any adult, who can
remember his first day on his
first job, is sure to recall that,
mingled with his pride at hav-
ing landed the job and his de-
termination to succeed at it,
were a lot of rather unpleasant
emotions.
There was the beWilderment of
an unfamiliar routine. There was
loneliness, too, and a secret fear
that the job might really be too
much for him, that problems
might arise that he wouldn't
know how to meet.
If that is hard on a grownup,
and any honest adult will adj
init it's quite a strain. then it
will be equally hard on a g.
year-old.
