I'll likely make . the grade I've been in tighter places than this an' come through all right Do I look like I was worried about It?" Before he had finished speaking there rose a sound such as Ann had never heard before, ft bad in It something of the wild beast's triumphant tri-umphant . scream when It bas brought its kill to bay. At that yell of hundreds of voices answering answer-ing the rail of the old savage blood-lust blood-lust she shuddered witb terror. The dread of It crashed over her senses like a great wave lifting her from ber feet The room tilted and objects swam together in a haze of bubbles. When ber eyes opened she found herself looking up into the face of Stone Be was supporting ber in his arms. "Yon fainted, he explained. An appreciation of the situation flowed back Into ber mind.

"You boys here to help Mike?" he asked crisply. "Tha's whatever, Wils," Yerby an swered promptly for both. "Good."

"That alnt a bad idea either, if It's not too late. You mean for the rest of us to stay an hold the Jail." " "Make a bluff at it yes." "Question is, have they got the jail surrounded? They've got a dozen men witb rifles strung out In front" This came from Phit "I Just got In the back way, by the creek bed," Wilson said. "But we'll have to hurry. Get Stone, Mike an' don't waste a second." The Irishman nodded and left the room almost on the run. To young Stark his inherited enemy gave orders. "Get Miss Gifford Gif-ford away from here. I'll have Mike let you out the front door. There won't be any trouble with the guards outside. They'll let you through, except maybe .to ask some questions. Take ber to the hotel.

Td rather stay here so I can go out and tell the mob he didn't do it I mean, If you and he don't get away." - "That would sure do a lot of good, about as much as tryln' to persuade a hungry tiger not to make Its kill" Wilson scoffed. His harsh voice softened. "Tf you want to help, there's a way. Go to the hotel and tell yore story. Or wherever wher-ever Miss Stark is now. She's like ly gathered s few goed citizens. Stir 'em up to help." "Well," she agreed doubtfully. Band came Into the room with Stone The prisoner's face was hard and impassive as rlm-rock. He looked round the room and nodded to those present "Ready?" asked Wilson. The deputy sheriff banded s re volver to Stone. "Me, I believe this young lady's story. But I'm askin' yon to give yoreself up whenever Hank calls forsyou. Dave." "Yes." the Texan promised. Rand led the way to the back door through the corridor.

"Too late. They'd get you both sure," he satd. "Yes," agreed McCann. "No chance." They returned to the office -They re watchin the back way," Rand explained. -Now what about Miss Gifford? Do you reckon she bad ought to go?" Si one and McCann answered "Yes," simultaneously. "The sooner the Quicker,1 added. , "Well call out first an' tell those In front she Is coming, so there won't be any chance for a mis take," McCann said. Ann looked plteously at the Tex an and followed Mike without a word pf protest Her heroic ges ture to save the maji who bad come to play so large a part In ber life was under a veto of general masculine mas-culine opinion. No doubt their view was a commonsense one, that the mob would listen to no expla nation she made, but none the less she longed to try what still seemed to her the only simple way that might save bloodshed. v. ; To the watchers outside, the deputy dep-uty sheriff explained In a shout that a woman was leaving the Jail accompanied ac-companied by a friend. "Let 'em come straight down the walk an' we'll meet 'era both, Mike," some one answered. "Bands In the air, all the time an no shenanigan. We're not takln', chances." Phil and Ann were let out and the door locked behind them., Hands up, they moved forward to, meet the guards. The man in charge of the jail blockade did not Intend to let any trick be played upon him. He had heard of pris oners escaping dressed as womea When he recognized Ann he took his hat off. But he held her for a short examination. ; "What you been doing there, ma'am?" he asked. "I went to give myself up. This afternoon I heard Mr. Stone had been arrested for killing Tom Me-Ardle. Me-Ardle. I shot him myself.". The man laughed, grimly. "That's a new play, hldin' behind a woman. I wouldn't hardly have expected that of Dave Stone." "But that isn't true," Ann cried. "I did shoot him. Jasper Stark and that Oitner saw me riding away afterward. Ask them. 'They can't deny It?" j "We can't ask them. They've lit out somewhere, an' that's funny, too. Know anything about It?" he asked suspiciously. "No. But It's true. Mr. Stone hadn't anything to do with shoot ing Tom McArdle. I did It I shot hira because because of what he did to my sister. I was coming home from one of our camps when I met him.' He tried to make up to me, so he could come and see come and visit at the house, We quarreled and I shot him. You don't believe me, and It's the truth before God," she cried desperately. "No, ma'am, we don't believe you. We think you're tryin' to save Dave Stone," the leader said, not unkind- "No man confesses to a killing he didn't do. That , wouldn't be reasonable. We'll tell Dave you done yore best for him. If you'll take my advice you'll Hght right outa town. It's no place for you tonight" He turned to Phil. "Who's up at the Jail with Rand? Anybody else at all?" "Four others." 1 "Who?" Phil looked him hardily In the eye. "rve forgot their names. "Meanin' you won't tell? "Meanin' Just that" . There was a short silence. "How come you mixed in this. Stark?" "If Dave killed McArdle it was in a fair fight an' be was Justified know that Dave never. bot any one without givln' him a chance.' He's just a Kia, Vh is," some one spoke up. . "You know how kids are about, gunmen." "I wouldn't call Dave a gunman exactly,". Phil protested "He's ab solutely square an' he's game." Ann broke down and between ber sobs begged for the life of her friend. She kept repeating that Stone did not kill McArdle, "that she had done It herself, that he was sacrificing himself because be was trying to protect her. The net re sult of her passionate entreaty was that in their minds she convicted herself only of being tq love witb the Texan. PbU escorted her, still shaken witb sobs, to the hotel. They passed groups of hurrying, excited men. The question tbey beard re peated several times was as to wbat had become of Jasper Stark and GItner. . Ann found the hotel a nucleus of activity for the few who opposed mob law. .Julia was here, and Sam Sharp and Lyn McCann But the leader was a lean grizzled brown man. a trifle bow-legged, with bard eyes and shaggy brows. Peter McCann Mc-Cann had been enlisted by Julia to support bis son Wilson Witb sharp incisive questions be drew from Phil the situation at the JaiL "You say yore brother an GItner GIt-ner are there, too?" be asked after the boy had told the facts.

Ann bad been talking to Julia, who now Interrupted McCann by leading the owner of the sheep ranch to him. "Do you know Miss Gifford, Mr, McCann?" she said by way of In terruption. "She bas something to tell you." , Again Ann told ber story of the trouble witb McArdle that had led to bis death." McCann listened and believed. It was possible that Stone's story was true, too. Per haps ebe had missed the range rid er and be bad been killed later in a fight with. the Texan. Or per haps, which was Just as likely, the little gunman bad made up the story to protect her. In any event It was clear to. bim that Tom McArdle had earned bis doom and that be bad not been murdered but shot down after due warning. There were half a dozen men In the room, In addition to Phil and the owner of the Flying VY. To them Peter gave instructions.. "There's two ways of doing this Job, boys. One is for us to get Inside the jail an stand off the mob. We can do. It. but there might be bloodshed. The other way Is for me to step in an' take the leadership of this job.

Julia asked. Peter looked at her, flushed and bright-eyed and quivering with life. She was a lovely picture of youth, and at sight of ithis eyes for s moment played tricks wltb bim. The girl he saw was the one be had loved and lost twenty-odd years before. be-fore. "I'm figurln' on playing' their game. But we'll change It some.

Julia understood now, when Inadvertently In-advertently he had called ber by her mother's name, much that bad puzzled her In Peter McCann's attitude. at-titude. In bis eyes, while be bad been staying at the Circle Cross, she had more than once seen an expression she could not fathom. She was very like her mother, and when he looked at her the hatred for her family was no longer in his heart The memory of Jessie Far-well Far-well made It impossible. "Can you save him that way?" Ann asked. "If you'll come through with yore story clean, if you'll tell what Tom McArdle did to ruin the lives of yore family." Ann shrank back, white-faced and trembling. "I couldn't before everybody." "Just enough so they'd under stand." he said gently. Julia put her arms around the other girl "I'll be. with you, Ann,' she whispered. And to McCann she said: "Leave it to me." : The old cattleman nodded. He Judged her competent to handle that end of the situation.
