Then be began: "1 had to go to Camden that night to deliver some papers from our bank to Mr. Fuller, the president of the Camden bant Pierre was ready to go to New York to school, but at the last minute 1 persuaded him to let me have his school money to Invest In this wonderful mine you had been writing me about . "All right, go on." "Well, I'd made up my mind that If I could get that money from Pierre 1 would cut loose from Orchard Hill and come out here and Join you. So when Pierre turned his money over to me, Just a few minutes before I left to catch my train to Camden, I saw my chance. I left a letter tor Ann, tell ing her that 1 was through tor good. ' - "Ann's father had to go down to the bank that evening, and we walked as far as the bank together. At the side door ot the bank we said goodby. Martin went into the bank. I started on toward tbe de pot I had only gone a little way when t suddenly remembered that I bad nearly $200 In the bank and ' wished I had It You see, Pierre's money was not nearly as much as you said we would need. . . looked at my watch and saw 1 had plenty of time, so t hustled back. As I was unlocking the door I saw something shining on tbe sidewalk. I picked It up and it was a Masonic watch charm. Ot course I knew It was Martin's and I didn't even put In In my pocke. thinking that In another minute I would band It to the old man. "To him It was a treasured em blem a gift from his friends that be always carried with him. The 'spring in the catch was weak, and I suppose It had come loose when he topped at the door to the bank. "That side entrance to the bank opens into a hall: on one side Is the main room; on the other the offices of the president and the ; cashier. As 1 passed the cashier's i office 1 noticed the door was open about an lncb, and the light on. I ; pushed the door wide open. There !was Campbell, our cashier, just about to put a package of money 'Into a small grip. " "Then he saw me. and I knew by his actions what he was up to. He was getting away with the bank's cash nod I had caught him In the act Didn't either of us .ay a word then he jumped me. In tbe tus sle, which only lasted a second, I managed to throw him across one corner ot a heavy table In the cen ter ot the room. - "He hit It pretty hard and I guess It must have hurt his back. Any way as be fell his head hit on the base ot tbe big swivel chair In front of his desk. 1 saw be was knocked out but I never dreamed he was hurt bad. 1 guess Martin must have been In tbe vault getting out his books because be evidently hadn't heard a thlrg. and .-om be hind the counter where Martin worked he couldn't see tbe door of the cashier's o.flce. 1 realized the situation In a flosh. There was that bundle of money! I Just grabbed It, slipped out of tbe door and to the depot Just In time In c.ilch my train to Camden "In Camden I delivered the pa pers and went to the botel and registered in case there should be a call for mc on tbe phone. Then I bought a ticket to Buffalo It was Just about time for the east bound train. "But I didn't go on that train: I struck out on foot across ouiitry 14 miles to Wheeler, a -own on an other railroad. I boarded tbe train the last nilnuie and paid my fare to a Junction point where I caughl a train to Cleveland. From Cleve land I went to Denver, and from Denver to Red Butte. "1 never knew the cashier was dead until I read the story In the Wall Street Report paper. It was too late then for me to back out because I Aud gotten away with the money. I bate to think of poor old Dad Martin being In Jail fur something be had no more to do with than you Rut It's blm or me. . "You see, having Martin's Ma sonic charm In my hand when Campbell lumped me. I dropped It In the tussle and never once thought of It again." "How much did you gel away with?" "Twenty dve thousand." "Got It on you?" "Of course. You tee, already had the money I got from Pierre. I paid my expenses out of that" "Hum-m," said Donovan, . and lapsed Into deep thought Bruce Carey's mental and ner vous condltloo was pitiable. In bis recital be had lived again, as It were, every hour of mental agony which he had endured from the moment when he had tricked Pierre to bis discovery tbat Dono van had known all the time of tbat tragedy at the bank. Fear, remorse, uncertainty, bad assailed him with Increasing strength. Step by step the net ot circumstances bad been drawn about him. And now tbe Inevitable crisis! Tbe dangers between which he must choose were appalling.' An other touch and the1 ambitious bank clerk would become a desperate animal ready to kill or to be killed. "Well, what are we going to dot" he demanded at last "What would you suggest?" asked Donovan with grim bumor. "We've got to go some place where I can lay low until this Or cbard Hill bank affair blows over." "Exactly. Once your Innocent father-in-law Is convicted and hung you'll be safe, heb?" "What else can I do?" snarled Bruce. "It's him or me, ain't It?" Donovan rose to his feet "Come On. We've spent more time now with this palaver than we bad any right to." "Where are we going?" cried Bruce leaping to his teet "To Dripping Spring first, then to Red Butte." "Not met" shouted the other furi ously. "You'll never get me back to Red Butte to be arrested tor murder." , ; He glared defiantly at' the older man who, his patience exhausted, had already started toward the packs and the canteen. Tbe perils tbat faced Bruce, whichever way he turned, had brought him to the verge ot wild, unreasoning fury. Helpless to avert the terrifying sit uation, the. cumulative ' nervous strain overpowered blm. Donovan replied sharply; "I tell you that there is no other place this side ot bell tbat we can pos sibly go. There's your pack we're heading for Dripping Sprluir right now." ' ' . v "1 tell you I'm not going back to Red Butte," cried Bruce. "I've takeu all the orders I'm going to take from you. You got uie' Into this mess with your Due promises about a mine that pinched out. be fore I could get to It And you led me out here on this wild goose chase after an Imaginary lode where there's no water. - "You ought to have knowo Hit Tanks would be dry this time ol the year you're suppused to know this country I'm nut.

The celebration wia put on by the Illi nois Valley grange and Kerby Post ot the American Legion In honor of tne coming of Copeo service to the IU .Inois valley. The competition a new 22-mlle extension by the California Oregon Power Company means that an abundant supply of electricity Is now available for the use of the homes Bnd farms of this fertile val ley and assures ample power for fu ture Industrial expansion. Visitors at Kerby Sunday found many varied forms of entertainment. Among the outstanding events were the rodeo, ball gome, horse races, ath letic events, barbecue, aerial "Joy rides" over the valley and a dance in the evening. A speaking program and bart concert opened the program In the morning with several well known speakers from Medford. C. E. Gates, president of the North ern California-Southern Oregon De velopment association made the prin cipal address, stressing the import ance of the new Copco line to the fu ture development of the "Mid-Pacific Empire" as well as to the entire Il linois valley region. A. E. Renines of this city gave an Interesting talk citing many Interesting experiences of pioneer auys. The construction of the newly com pleted Hue has proved a boon to tlte local employment situation, a large number of men having been employ ed during the past few months on the Copco project. In acordane with- the usual policy of the California Oregon Power Company, local labor and ma terials were used to the greatest pos- ilble extent.

So many fliers are over the dif ferent oceans and continents that it Is difficult to keep track of them. Sufficient to say that they are all doing -"very nicely."
