KYNOPSIS: Camped In the desert,, Pierre learns from the old pro-' pector, Jimmle Harrlgan, that a man answering liruce's description ie-wtth Colorado Bill hunting- the) tost Mother Mountain Bold vein. Vlcrre had impulsively given htt irtuucv o Bruce for tble venture. unnuu.ro that hie own estranged father It backing It. Hoa Me con cern It) not over the money, but the tnjusl'ce done Ann. tchen llruce, htr husband, hod deserted her on the pretext that she and Pierre were In love. Denying the charge, Pierre wants to briny liruce back to avert the scandal certain It the villagers apprehend It. Meanwhile he tears that the law, ll seeking ilrnce as a suspect In a murder for which Ann's lather has been arrested, may expose the shameful secret. f i i Chapter. 27 DESERT CONFIDENCES "I DON'T care what happens to 1 me. Mr. Hnrrltcan." Pierre ex claimed',' "If only 1 can find Druce and get him home to Ann first. I don't think that Bruce believes -what he wrote In that letter to Ann he Bliiiply couldn't. And It was all to false. "A woman like Ann couldn't be untrue to her husband, even even If the other man had tried to make ' love to her. And Ann couldn't let her husband brand the other man as that , kind of scoundrel when the knew he was Innocent. , "1 think Bruce Is so crazy to go into this gold mine here that be iosed the other thing as an excuse ;to get away1 from Orchard HIM We didn't dare .- let them know where we thought ha bad gone, because they would send an officer after him and then It would all come out about bis leaving Ann. "There was no other way but, for me to find him first to he could come home as If nothing bad hap pened between him and Ann. It's only Ann that's to be considered. I don't count. I guess I'm finished anyway." ? , ' And the desert man, because bis heart was kind, refrained from more questions or comments. For a long time pierre lay gazing at, the stars. His companion sat be- Bide the dead campflre, smoking. I At last Pierre spoke softly, "Mr. iHnrrlgaiH were you ever married?" The mai) of the desert answered ."Not quite,. lad. I was near to tt 'once, but It missed me. Through iforce av circumstances the years av me life that should have been given to murryln' a wife and raisin' a family have been, spent In playln' nurse to a flock av burros." But.l'lorre's thoughts were too far lawny for him to notice the humor of the Irishman's views. "When Father Tony . and my jniolhor were young, mother would not marry him because she wanted a stage careor. I am sure mother always lovod blm. I don't think mother, ever really loved the man she did mai;ry, my . father, lie was torrlbly cruel to mother and me when we war oh 'the stage togeth er. Father used to make me. give up everything to Bruce, his stepson. Then futher deserted mother and me went away, we never knew where, and after that Father Tony and mother and I were happy to gether in Orchard Hill. "You believe In love, don't you, Mr. IlnrrlganT" ."' The man of the desert answered philosophically: "There must be some such thing, I suppose, to per snade men. and women to make suclt fools av thlmselves over one another.1 : ''Itve often won'dored," Pierre continued, "how it would be to mar ry a girl you loved and settle down In' eomo nice place and be a bank clerk,, or something nice that all your life, I loved a girl once It wou't do any barm out here In the desert It I confess I love her yet I inever told her I lovod ber because jl was going to be an actor and I don't think actors should marry. I think the girl loves me, too, but we have never talked about our love. She married another man. I don't think; they wero very happy to gether. "But mother used to say there are many things In life that are as Dual and Irrevocable as death. When the girl you love . marries some other man It Is like that The man might die, or they might be divorced, but that wouldn't undo the fact that they bad been hus band and wife. The girl and I are dead to each other. We can go on loving each other, but we can't change the foot of her being tho other man's wife,". There was a long silence after this. Ilarrlgsn knocked the ashes from his pipe and lay down. But presently Pierre spoke again, and there was a timid, childish quality In his voice which touched the warm Irish heart of bis companion. "Are you asleep?" TONIGHT!

"I know that's what I'm wonder ing about. You know I have no gun, Mr. Harrlgan. I don't think I ever bad one in my bonds." ., "So I was thlnkln' and ye'lt do better without. There'll be notbln' far ye to shoot notbln' that ye could shoot, I mean." : "But what if I should meet i wild animal of some kind?" ' ' "Ye'll meet notbln' bigger than a coyote and ye'll meet no ooyote If he sees ye first." - "But I might be bitten by a snake!" j ' ' "I've told ye what to do In that case. Av course ye might drop dead av heart failure. But the chances are ye will not." "What if I run out of water?" "Ye'll carry enough to last ye to Ulack water Tanks and back. If ye should waste It by takln' a bath, or mislay yer canteen ye ought to die of thirst, as ye probably wll. ."Suppose I don't find Bruce and Colorado Bill at the Tanks.'; . . "Then ye'll come back here to Drlppln' Spring and follow the trail t showed ye to my place In the Biscuit Hills. Ye can't miss yer way to the Tanks because ye'll steer straight fer the little hollow of Mother Mountain. But, It ye should not meet yer men on yer way to the Tanks, or not find them there, so .that ye have to come hack alone, then be careful to stick to the trail!. It , should be clear enough with Colorado Bill and bis outfit Just goln' over It, and yer own fresh tracks besides, but, watch H every step. It ye leave the way back here to Drlppln' Spring and turn aside Into Skeleton Sink ye may Just make yer peace with God." Again the alienee ot the desert night was unbroken. Then Pierre asked softly, "Mr. Harrlgan, do you believe that those we call dead can see us like a person In the wings of a theater, could watch an actor on the stage?" , ,. '"Tla like the priests tell us, I suppose." . .. .. " ;. -;, . "Well," . returned Pierre. "I can feel my mother watching me as I used to when I played my bits on the stage. And when I would-get my cue to exit I would run off the stage Into mother's arms. And Just before mother died she made me understand that death Is only the exit ot the actor from the stage. ; , "You seo, Mr, Harrlgan, aa ac tor's exit Is the most Important thing be does. It doesn't matter so much how you come Into this world whether "you'are "born well and all .that. It'a now you go out that really counts.... . , . .. .. ... . , "It'a Just almply no use to make a good entrance In a great part It you're going to fall down at the fin ish, I mean; if you can't build your part up to tlie very last lino, and make your exit a great one. That's what I've always thought I would do., , ., "I've always expected to play the part, writtoa for me so .that when my cue came I could make my exit as I used to do when I was a kld-r and that I would hear mother say. Bravo, my little Pierre I In the darkness the man of the desert crossed himself and mutter ed a prayer. 'Btit that's all over now. Mr. Harrlgan. I'm a rotten failure. I was cast to play the part ot a real artist- ,ot the stage, and mother aaved the. money (or me to go to School. vAnd then I gave my school monoy to Bruce, foe bltn to put It into a gold mine out here In Nevada. I don't think I can make much of an exit now. The miserable soda Jerk will Just sneak off the stage anyway tie can manage it and the sooner the better.. 1 don't think mother will say, 'Brivo, bravo, my little Pierre!'" 'The saints keep us. what talk Is this?" muttered Jimmle Harrlgan to himself. Aloud lie said, "Never mind, lad, ye'll feel different when ye see daylight to-morrow morning. Go to sleep now like a good bey." rom out of the vast desert came a wild, weird, cry. . .nr. uumgnn," whispered Pierre. "Did you hcor?" "'TIs only, a coyoto. lad. Co to sleep, ye've talked enough," I I think It might be belter If I had a guu." The cry came again a lone- drawn unearthly howl ending lu a sobbing laugh. "Mr. Harrlgan, then It Is asaln! Did you hear?" 'Clo to sleep, lad, go to sleep." (CvfrrttH, JJ0. p. AtHslem ..i Cv t burnlna the dllert tun which ftcorchti Pierre's path to morrow Is tho purpose that for- him on.

Efforts to obtain a statement from the youth .were futile, and he did not reveal his name. The attempt against the governor was the subject of a vote of protest, passed unanimously by the chamber of deputies after Deputy Guillermo Rodriguez, of Vera Cruz, had warmly defended the governor's efforts to en force the newly enacted state law which limits to 13 the number of priests who may administer to the 1,300,000 inhabitants; of the state. . Dispute lies from Jalapa a.d that normal school students and state gov ernment employes paraded last night, shouting "down with the clergy." The governor, - addressing the paraders from a balcony of the government palace, declared be would not recede from his anti-church policy. .
