I'usli ino her horae through the ahallo'0 river, nia rides fearlessly into a hail or bullets to rescue an Ameri can who is fleeing from a band 01 ilcrieo insurgents. Knowing the . leader of the guerrillas, she argues him into releasing the American, fllatne Howard, who sans he has been a newspaper carrcspotulent with Villa's army. Dagger is im pressed bv Howard's eelt-assur-anre and nonchalance, while he . admires her courage and spirit. Aa thru talk on the river bank, n cavalcade approaches from the ranch in search of Dagger, having heard the shooting. In the lead is Dick Welling, a famous English polo. plover until ho last an arm, and now a foreman of the ranch, Jt develops that Howard also has ,. been a volo plauer and knows of Welling. Chapter 2 NO ORDINARY CIRL THE leader of the cavalcade waved a hand In reply, and It was easy for Howard to see that it was his only hand. Welllog was a slim, bronzed man, his light hair burned lighter by the sun, his blue eyes vivid against Llio tan, the hard ness ot his expression minimized . by a mouth as tender as a woman's. "What mischief have you been up to. Dagger?" he hailed. "We beard shots." ' ' ' "Jose Martinez and a bunch ot Vllllstas were chasing Mr. Howard, here, Dick. That was all." "All?" There was Irritation In Welling'B tone, ."If I catch Josfi " "I'm u fro hi I'm responsible for the wholo .tuslness," interposed Howard. Welling glanced nt Mm keenly. "Been smugglliig?" "Oh, no," the tilr spoke up. "Mr. Howard is a nowsiwpcr correspon dent, and Pancbo wouldn't let him go-'frsJd lie'd glvo ao'ny their bor der connections." "And our friend Joso would have hnd me cold, I! tills little Indy mcln't nppcarod." nmcndod Howard. "I've promised Mr. Howard some uulo," said Dagger. "Couldn't we accommodate him?" Welling surveyed Howard's rangy, horseman's figure. "I'lny, do you?" ; '"A bit." . "Ah! Any particular club?" "Meadqwbrook, when I'm at home." The Englishman stiffened In his saddle. "Are you Blaine Howard, sir?" "Guilty," admitted Howard. "You" Wolllng broke off hlo rcmnrk, then continued with a slight flush: ' "You're the nine-goal No. .3, aren't you?" .... "I used .to bo," corrected How ard.. VI haven't played much lately." . Welling scorned about to speak ngaln, ami nguln chocked himself. ."Heard ot you, of course," he snld rlimlly. .riddling with his bridle. "Hut It's odd. to llnil you 'way down here." ..... "And who .found him?" crowed Dagger. "He know who you were as soon as I mentioned you." Welllng'i flush deepened. "That's an old story," be demur red. "I 1 don't think we ever met, .Mr, Howard But torgivo my rude ness. You must feel like a bite." He waved tho cavalcade forward. "How'd you happen to be In Mojt Ico?" he added. i And this time It aeemed to Dag ger as It It was Hownrd who stif fened slightly. .... , I "Oh, got tired ot-clvlliiaton." ho ssld, "and a pal ot mine altered me thlft.cliAnqa to see how the Greaser light. .But, I'm tor Prance, now." , ., A ., ,blg, stoop shouldered old man, whose leathery features wore domed by a ragged, walrus mous tache, stood In the doorway as tile VACATION LAND- Partly Furnished Houses for Rent Seavlew Cottages for 8ale HUNTING, OCEAN AND FRESH WATER FISHING, BOATING, : .

"What yew been up to, Dagger?" he demanded. "We beard ihootin' over by the river." "Climb down. Uncle Jim," she re torted airily. - "I beard shooting and talked Jose Martinez out ot working the ley fuga on this gentle man here, Mr, Howard." "Yeh?" he drawled, a sardonic glitter in his steel-blue eyes. "Waall, yew'll get the ley fuga worked on yew one of these days, It yew don't lay off monkcyln' witb them Clreasers." "Hero wo are, Mr. Marley," said Welling, as the rest ot the rider drew up. "This Is Mr. Howard of New York. I fancy Dagger has told you of him." Unelo Jim offered a calloused band. "Only 'lowed bo wore a strange Gringo J out) Martinez aimed to work the ley fuga on." "Indeed, 1 owe my life to your niece, Mr. Marley," said Howard. "Waall, don't' shoot craps with tier or yew'll owe her a damn sight, more," advised the old ranchman. "Come In, and havo a snort of llcker, sir. 'Uiail to see yow." "Thank you, Air. Marley," replied Howard. Ho studied the wide, low- ceiled room 'appreciatively as they "Indeed, I owe my life to your niece, Mr. Mar Icy," Howard broko In. entered. It was a man's room, with a saving ImprciiHlon ot feminine, in Ilueuco. 'No ranchmnu, he kuew would hnva hung that Blue, Uo print over the inuntleplccu.

"You like tho Bluo Boy?" be asked.. "I lovo hlml 1 sent all tho. way to Now York for hi in," "Someday you'll travel," Howard suld. "Perhaps you'll come East and see my collection." "Perhaps we can ' persundo Mi Howard to stay a while wltb us,' suggested Welling. "Shore," Marley assented. "Ad mlro to have yow, sir." "I'm afraid I " Howard checked ns ho perceived tho plead Ing light In Dnggcr's eyes "yes I'd like to slay a tow days, If 1 may." "That will ho wondorful," sighed tho girl. "You'vo been places, haven't yon? , You know what the world's like out there." Mnrlcy poured tour glasses m tho oily spirits three slionbli ones, Howard observed, and om halt ns full. This last lie cxtondoc. to Dnggcr, ','Yoro good health sir," said the old ranchman, bowing to Hownrd "Hear, hear," assented Wolllng. "Mr. Howard," added Dagsor, and' tossed off her portion without blinking. , Howard susponded his own drink. "Say, that-rtlial'a whiskey." . Welling smiled, and old Mnrlcy remarked dryly: "Good whiskoy don't hurt nobody, sir. 1 always aimed to bring up Dagger like she wore a boy. Waall, drink up, Hownrd!"
