CHAPTER X ")ENNY struggled to the rail to ; Imp from the speeding train, but other passengers held him back. "Dont be fool! They'll be all right You'd be killed!" "Caleb Mr. Ogden will pick them up In his car!" called Mr. King, from the rear. "Unless, of course, coyote or a rattle snake " "They'll be all right," the con ductor reiterated. "Shack right near the track. See It? Your run away must have been In it or we'd have seen her. Darned lucky the young lady didn't hurt herself, Jumping off my train!" Indigna tion emanated from him. ' Carole, Denny realized, had risked her life. A fine person he was to be entrusted with the care of a child. "t can't stand It!" Rhoda blazed. "This is the end, Wayne Dennis." "Shut up, will you?" Denny grabbed the conductor's arm. "When do we stop? Can I get a car or it'll be getting dark a plane? Where are we, anyway? In Arizona?" "There are wolves after dark!" woman piped up. "And gila monsters. Oh, I'm going to faint!" The conductor drew Denny way from the pack. Denny could get off- at the first station. He could get a car, or, possibly, wire Window for a plane. Sure, there'd be time before dark. Daylight lasted in Arizona. More than, likely this Mr. Ogden would have . seen the whole business, and ! would pick up Carole and Peace' and bring them to the very same station, before Denny had made his arrangements. Nothing toi worry about, but that train couldnt be delayed another min- -ute. He was sorry. They were bout a hundred miles from Wins low. Mrs. King stood at Denny's el- ' bow, wiping her eyes. "1 wish I'd never given Caleb $500 for that option on his old oil well." "Five hundred dollars, madam? So that's it!" The condactof trighed as if the limited meant the weight of the world. "Better let Mr. Dennis telegraph your bank to stop payment" "B-b-b-but 1 gave Mm cash." "Well do something after I And Peace." Sens; told her. And this was the woman who'd Iput the police on his trail. And iahe was going to watch out for Carole. Sucker! In his misery iDenny almost pitied her. TN a few minutes the train slowed shacks. Could that be a station? And a bartered roadster beside, it! "Good luck!" ailed several messengers. "Pick you up en' route, if you get a piane, tne conductor said. ' "If we don't wait for me in Los Angeles," Denny instructed Rhoda. "Cocoanut Grove!" It was the only place he could think of at the moment since their pre- jvkras plans had been to go on at once to La Jolla. Rhoda would lhave to look out for herself. His anxiety was so great he forgot to Ikiss her goodby. A wan young station agent tree ted him as he hopped off. I" Jumpin' bullfrogs a passengerl" Denny had explained the pre WUcament before the train was wi lder way. "Can I take your car?" "Sure, buddy. Only poor Liz (has a flat Patch her up in a bifty." "What would you do," Denny iput it up to him, "if you had two girls lost in the desert and one Ion the limited?" The agent scratched his rumpled Ihead. "Me? I'd telegraph for a Iplane. Car couldn't catch the' train, even without a flat Then I'd pick up the lost eirls and eet I'ara safely aboard the train at first I possible station, and head for Mexico by my lonesome." Denny heard the click of the llnstrument, while he watched a group of barefoot half-naked Mexican children playing in the and. The station agent accepted a cigaret "Be here before you can isay Jack Robinson. Hope your folks stick to the tracks and don't try to wander off. Not much twl lligbt here in Arizona. Old sun mean itself all over the sky and plops out of sight Lots of time 'before dark, though." The dark! Denny smothered a irlsing fear. which Denny had seen Ogden run. Only no Carole was in sight wav ing, as she should have been. "Looks like it, only where are they?" Gone with that Texan? And if so, where? "Let's land and investigate." ""THE pilot set the plane down like a baby, and the two men headed for the shack. "Look. They've been here." Denny said. "See those tracks?" He pointed to the impressions made by small high heels and those of a child's shoe. "Peace! Carole!" They pushed open the door and stepped into a windowless hovel, with a dirt floor covered with debris. The only sound to greet them was a loud snore, coming from a half-breed Mexican-Indian sleeping in a corner. The pilot was outside studying the tracks again. "They came here, all right and then they ran. See, Mr. Dennis, how much deeper these tracks are?" "Carole! Peace! Where are you?" Denny shouted with all his might "Oh, Denny! Oh, Denny!" The cry came faintly to his ears. And facing it he made out two little figures running toward him from sagebrush back of the shack. "There they are!" Denny raced to meet them. He caught Carole in his arms, as she came panting up, dragging Peace. "Oh, Denny! That awful man! If it hadn't been you! We were hiding behind those mesquite bushes. We heard the plane, but we had to be sure who was in it because we were afraid he'd come back for the money. We came out as soon as we neard yoa call." "Did that man molest you?" Train or no train, he'd go back and make him pay for it . "She means Mr. Hosden!" Feace piped, delighted when the pilot picked her up and carried her. "He stole poor little Joany, the horrid old thing!" "And that isn't all he stole," Carole said. "Wait till you hear." (To Be Continued) OUT OUR WAY By J. R. WILLIAMS OUR BOARDING HOUSE With MAJOR.

"Good lluck, and when you find 'em, take imy advice and beat it to Mexico. . Three girls no harems for me." 1 Denny climbed into the plane. ! "Follow the track east There's ! nothing near the spot but a turn : bledown shack, but it's before you ' get to Gallup." The pilot knew hit business and every inch of the country, .
