CHAPTKIl HI. (Continued)
They picked their way down tho
drunken descent to tho Scales,
then breasted tho sluggish human
current to Sheep Camp.
A group or men were reading a
notice newly posted upon the wull
oi the log building which, served as
restaurant nnd - hotel, aucj after
scanning It I'ierce explained:
"It's ui.giiicr. .cyll , Hj a.-imMiiu-.'s
meeting. We're having quite O"
timo with cache-robbers t If we'
catch them we'll hang then!.' t
The Countess nodded. "Rightf!
They deserve ,lt. ' Yon ;Rriow we
don't have any .stealing o thV'ln-;
side.' Now, then, I'll tiuy good
by." She paid Pierce nnd extended
her hand to him. "Thank you for
helping me across. I'll be in lyti;
by dark." . ,
"I hope we'll meet again," ho
said, with a slight flush.
The. woman favored him with
one of Iter generous, friend ly
smiles. "I hope so, too. You're a
nice boy. 1 like you." Then she
stepped into the building und was
gone.
"A nice boy!" t Phillips was
pained.--A boy! And he th 6 sturd
iest pucker on tho pass, with per
haps ono exception! That wus
hardly Just, to t him. If they did
ineeti again, aiid " he vowed they
would he'd show her he was more
thun a Joy.. ...He experienced a
Keen desire to appear; well, .in. her
eyes, to appear mature, and force
ful. - He auKcd himstiir what Kti.il
oi' man Count Courteau could bub
ho wondered U.he, Pierce Phillips),
could fall in . love with such-
ftt'Oinan'as'lhnjru-n TyraWnlTin.i d
woman who hud been married. Jt
would be quuer to inurry u countl
ess, he reflected. " . ... at , . ' '
As he walked toward -his tem
porary home he beheld, quite a
gathering of citizens, and paused
long enough to mMu that tiuy. were
being harruugued by ..the confi
dence-man who hud lirst initiated
hlin Into the subtleties of Jhe
three-shell game. Mr. Broad had
climbed upon a raised tent platform
and was presenting an earnest
argument aguinsL capital punish
ment. , Two strangers upon the
fringe of the crowd were talking,
and Pierce heard one of them say:
"Of course he wants the law to
take It? couYsc, Inasmuch us there
isn't any law: He's one of the
gang."
"The surest way to flush a eovey
of crooks is to whistle for old
Judge Lynch," the other man
agreed. "Listen to him!"
"Have they caught the cache
robbors?" Phillips made bold to
Inquire.
"No, and they won't catch them,
with fellows like that oa tho com
mittee. The crooks hang together
and wc don't. -If I had -my way
that's Just what they'd do hang
together. I'd start in by bending
a limb over that rascal. "
Phillips had attended several of
these indignation meetings nnd, re
membering that all of them had
proved purposeless, he- went on
toward the McCnskey brothers'
tent. He and the McCaskeys were
not the closest of friends, in spite
of the fact that they had done him
a favor a favor, by tho way, for

which ho had paid, many times
over nevcrthcJctu they were his
most Intimate acquaintances and
he felt an urgent desire to tell
them about his unusual experience,
His desire to talk about tho Count
ess Courteau was Irresistible.
But" when. he. ' imtored tho tent
his greeting fell. flut, for Joe, the
older McCiiKke y, uddreaeed him
sharply, alifiost accuslngly5
"Say, it's about time- you showed
up!"
"What's tho matter'?" Pierce
saw that the other brother was
stretched out in his blankets and
that his head, was bumlaged.
"Hello;" ho cried. "What ails
Jim? la he sick." .
"Sick? Worso than sick," Joe
grumbled. "That money of youra
is to blume for it.. Ha u wonder
ho Isn't dead."
"My money? How?" Phillips,
was bolh mystified and alarmed,
Jim raised htiuseir In his blan
kets and wild, Irritably: "After
this you can run your own pay
car, kid. I'm through, d'you hear?"
"Speak, ouL W halt's , wrong?
"Jim was stuck up. that's
what's wrong., That's enough, isn't
It ? They, bent u alx-gun over his
nend artd grabbed your coin.. He's
got a dent In his crust the sire
of a Muiccr!" .
, .Phillips' face whitened slowly.
."My money! Uobbed!" ho KHped.
I "Jim! Who . did It ? How could
you let them?" , ,
- The younger McCnskey fell back
weakly; he waved 'a feeble; gesture
at his brother, . vJoe'U , tell you.
I'm dUy; my head ain't right yet."
'"A stranger stopped him asked
him something, or other and an
other guy flattened him from be
hind. That's all ho remembers.
When lie enmc to ho found he'd
been frisked. He was still dippy
when ho got home, so I put him
to bed. He got up nnd moved
around a bit this morning, but he's
wrong in his head."
Phillips seated himself upon a
cnndlc-box. "Itobbed!" ho exclaim
ed, weakly. "Hroltc ugainl Gee!
That was hard money! It was the
flrM I ever earned!" I
Joe McCaskey's dark face was
doubly, unpleasant as ho frowned!
lavn upon the youth. , "Thinking
ubout, nothing except your .coin,
on?, Why .don't you , think, .about
Jim? Ho did you a , favor and
'most lost his life.".
"Oh, I'm sorry of , bourse!"
Phillips rose henvlly nnd crossed
to the bed. "I didn't mean to ap
pear selfish. I don't blame, you,
Jim, I'll got a doctor for you,
then you must describe the hold
up. Uivo me a hint who they
nri'tind I'll 'go aftertheiii." '' ' "
'Hie ybtinx'r! Voiher i-'blTed Wo
head' 'In negutlon and mum hied,
sullenly: "I'm all rlghl. I don't
want a doctor."
Joo explained for hlin: "Ho
never saw tho follows before and
he dor.'t seem to remember much
ubout them. That's natural enough.
Your money's gone clean, kid, and
a yelp won't get you anything.
Tho crooks aro organized and if
you set up a holler they'll got all
of n. They'll alibi anybody you
acouno it's no, trick to -alibi a
pal " ,
"Isn't It?" Tho o nest I on was ut
tered unexpectedly; It camo from
tho front of the tent and startled
the occupants thereof, who turned
to behold a stranger Just entering
ihetr premises. He wus un elder
ly man; he possessed a quick,
shrewd eyo: ho had poked the tent
flap aside with a barrel or a Colt's
revolver. Through tho door-open
ing could be seen other faces and
the bodies of other men who., had
likewise stolen up unheard. During
the moment of amazement follow
ing his first words these' other
men crowded in behind him.
"Maybe It'll bo more of a trick
than you figure on." The stranger's
gray miiHtnche lifted In a grin
thnt was not at all friendly. '
"Vhat the blazes?" Joe Mc
Caskey exploded.
"Go easy!" the Intruder cau
tioned him. "We've been laying
around, waiting for your pal to get
back." With a movement of the
revolver muzzlf he Indicated Phil
lips. "Now then, stretch! On your
ro'-s and reach high. You there
get up!" He addressed himself to

Inc.. and Frank
Jim, who rose from his bed and
thrust his hands over his bandaged
head. . "Thut's nice!" the strunger
(nodded approvingly. . "Now don't
' startle i me; don't make any quick
moves or I may .tremhlo this gun
off she's easy on tho trigger." To
his friends ho called, ,'Vomo In,
iVeiitlemen; they're gentle,"
There wore four of the latter;
they appeared to he substantial
uvn, men of determination. AM
were armed. . ' . ' ... ,
' PM'rce Phillips' timuv.oment gave
way to ihdiguntlon. "What . Is
this, nn arrest or a hold-up?" he
Inquired. . . ' .
' "This Is an outrage!,' Jim Mc
Cnskey" complained, ;JTm just
getting over out) iitlck-tip. I'm a
sick man."
."Sure!" his brother, exclaimed
furiously. "You're a pack of fuolst
.What d'you want,-anyhow?"
: "Wit' want you to shut up! flee
that you do." Tho old man's eyes
snapped, vlf you've got to say
something, tell us how then' hap
pens to be n trail of rice from thin
man's cache" he indicated one of
his companions "right up to your
tent.V
! Tho ,( McCoskey's exchanged
glances. Phillips tdnned a startled
face upon them. ...
For. is few moments nothing was
Haid. aiid mcnnwhiUr the. search of
thu. tent went on. . When Pierce
eoili ino longer remain silent he
hroku out:
'"There's some mistake. These
boys' packed this grub from lyea
and I helped with some of It."
-. "Aren't you partners?" uome'ono
Inquired,
Joo McCnskey answered thl
question. "No. He landed brake.
Wo felt sorry for him und took
him in,"
Joo was interrupted by an ex
clamation from ono of the search
ers. "Hero it Is!" said the man.
He had unearthed a bulging can
vuu sack which ho flung down for
Inspection. "There's my mark, 'W.
K., and there's the rip. I knew
we hud 'em right!"
After a brief examination the
leader of the posse turned to his
prisoners, whoso hands wore still
held high, saying:
"Anything you can think of In
the way of explanations you'd bet
ter save for tho miners' meeting.
It waitih' to welcome you. We'll
put a guard 6ver this plunder till

then, fall in lino nnd don't crowd.

Never Has Progress
Seemed So Swift
GRANDMOTHER'S girlhood would seem pathetic
ally poor in comforts to us today. She never knew
the convenience of electrically done housework; of
time saved in cooking; of swift trips through the
country by motor; of the world's best music in her
home, out of the air. .
A generation has changed the -lives, comforts and
habits of the world.
Tomorrow new conveniences, new comforts will
swiftly find their way into our lives.
The advertisements will herald their coming. To
day a manufacturer will announce a new and better
product. , Tomorrow a million men and women will
use it as an old friend.
An advertisement breaks down the barrier of dis
tance and tells to all the world inta day's time
the best and newest things the world has devised.
People who keep abreast with progress read tho
advertisements. .
