The prince was riding unattended outside of Melbourne when bis saddle girth broke, and while he was trying to fix It a gentleman rode up and dismounted. Noting the accent of the young rider, the stranger said "You are from England." "Yes." "And may I ask your name?" "I am the prince of Wales. May I Inquire whom I have to thank for this service?" "Oh, me," eame the unhesitating answer, "I'm his dad." On the following evening there was a fete given In Melbourne. The prince was there and among the guests he noticed the stranger of the road. Pushing his way through the elite, Eddie advanced with a smile and an outstretched hand. "Hello, dad," he said. Boston Tran- script Jfs.&xZ. If"-- ?

He finds the place the center of a cattle war between tbe Ingram and Steelman interests. Sbep Sanderson, Ingram gunman, picks a fight with Garrett and gets the worst of It Garrett tells Ingram that be wants to keep out of the war, but Is Informed be must take one side or the other. Gar- rett meets Bob Quantrell, young killer for Ingram, and an Englishman, looking for a ranch. Quantrell saves Garrett and the Englishman from being shot by Sanderson, and the three become friends. Garrett witnesses a meeting between Ingram and Barbara Steelman, daughter of Ingram's enemy. They are lovers. Garrett and the Englishman buy a ranch with Steelman as ailent partner. Fitch, Steelman man, kills an Ingram follower and Is pursued by a posse. He stops j.t the "tenderfoot" ranch and Is caught and Sanderson starts a fight hung. and Garrett and the Englishman are wounded. Quantrell changes sides, Joining the two ranchers. A lull In the cattle war follows. Quantrell kills Sanderson and another Ingram gunman in a fight. A tentative peace Is patched up Quantrell leads an unauthorized raid on the Hughes ranch. Emlth-Beresfor- d, VIII Continued After he had talked with his partners the owners of the Hash-knif- e sent for Hob Quantrell. That young man came In sheepishly, expecting to he raked over the coals. "You've certainly spilled the young man," Steelman suld bluntly. "What have you got to say for yourself? Who asked you to raid the Hughes place?" "Mel Oh, I was kinda plnyln' a lone hand. Would you cull It a raid when we was a sheriff's posse all swore lit regular an' proper?" "At the very hour you were pullin' off this fool business my two partners here were tryln to arrange a compromise with Ingram. What do you suppose he'll think about us?" "He'll probably onload his private can of cuss words." The boy put one thigh over the edge of the table and sat on It by way of show. Ing that be was at ease. "What's the use of compromlsln' with hitn? We've got him whipped, looks to me. The banks are closln' In on him like buzzards on a dead cow at a water hole. That's the story I hear. I.emme ask you a question. Say I'd made my play good. Would you have bawled me out their, or you have figured It good medicine?" For a moment Steelman was taken aback. It was not just the question he wanted asked at the moment.

"You Bob," saved my life and Lyulph's, too, from Sbep Sanderson's vengeance. We like you, both of us. Put yoa knew perfectly well what the orders were, that our riders should keep out of this feud If they wanted to stay with us. You deliberately overrode our wishes." "Orders," broke out Quantrell. "Say, fellow, don't you use that word when you're talkln' to me, I don't take orders from you or anyone else." "But, by Jove, that's Just the d trouble, Bob," Interposed amiably. "We can't have you Bhootln' up people all over the shop. It won't do, you know." "We want to part friends," O'Hara said. "There's no reason You're why we shouldn't let's say, to ride for us Just now, but " "Friends," Interrupted Quantrell, lils cold blue eyes narrowed to slits. Iiia voice tilled with scornful anger. "Me, I was ready to ride the river with you. I'd have gone with you to the end of the trail, through, under, between, or over.

Some day we'll laugh about this together, and to show our appreciation of your services we want you to accept this little bonus from us." Quantrell took the check handed him and tore It Into twenty pieces. He turned ou his heel and clumped out of the room. Fifteen mluutes later he disappeared over the bill on horseback. "Well, we sure turned a good friend Into a bad enemy," Steelman said ruefully, lighting his pipe with a live coal at the blacksmith's fire. O'llarn felt that Steelman left a criticism Implied If not expressed. The old cattle man would not have let Quantrell go, but would have credited the young fellow's action to excessive real and let him off with a reproof. But then Steelman had no hope In the success of the negotiations with Ingram and was not Interested In demonstrating good faith, "I don't see what else we could said have done." despondently. Like O'Hara, he regretted very mueh the necessity that had driven them. Quantrell had probably saved both their lives on one occasion, but he was headstrong and Implacable to a degree that made It Impossible to retain him. Undoubtedly some day he would have broken out Renin If he had stayed. Ha was a killer.

Then, to Harvey, he said : "I'm postponiir i'nis expedition a few hours, Tom. Got to see some one first" "Who have you got to see, Dave?" asked Harvey. "Private business of my own," Ingram answered curtly. Ingram chose a fast horse and cut across the park to the eastern rim of It From here he pushed into the hills, heading farther to the north. At the summit of a wooded ridge he dismounted and tied the horse, then moved forward cautiously, rifle In hand. His keen eyes scanned the terrain carefully. At times he stopped and stood perfectly still for minutes at a stretch, then once more crept through the brush toward a small arroyo that dropped swiftly to a mesa below. It was the spot where he and Barbara Steelman had been used to meet before the feud bad flamed Into open warfare. Ingram had been there only a few minutes when a lone rider emerged from a draw. The approaching horse clambered up to the ledge plateau and Barbara Steelman drew tbe animal to a halt. Out of the brush came Ingram to meet her. No words were wasted by him In greeting. Before he spoke bis flinty blue eyes searched ber for a moment. "I got yore note, an' I'm here," he said. She plunged at once Into what she bad to say. "I had to talk with you. I bad to tell you how It was about the attack on the Hughes place. My father had nothing to do with that, neither he nor his partners. My father had started for From Here He Pushed Into the Hills. the river ranch after a conference with Mr. O'llara an' Mr. Smlth- Peresford. It was agreed they should start negotiations with you to stop this dreadful war. Bob Quantrell was to blame for the at tack, an' he has been discharged since. We're all so sorry about It." "I II bet you are," the cattle man grimly replied. "Sorry Qunntreil fell down on his end of It after It had all been fixed so pretty. A nice alibi arranged for everybody, an" those two pilgrims In town drawln the wool over my eyes. You tell 'em front me that the first time I meet either of 'em he'll have a hide so full of holes It wouldn't hold hay." "But you're wrong." she persisted desperately. "I've got to make you see that It's true what I say, every word of It. My father didn't know what Boh Quantrell meant to do. Neither did the others, his partners at the Circle 8 O. You know Bob Quantrell, how be Is. I should think you'd understand." "It's certainly lucky you've got Quantrell to blame everything on," Ingram said witli a flush of ancer. "Everybody Innocent but him, that Sounds to mo." "Put Just the same It's the truth." He looked long Into her eyes, then spoke harshly. "All right Say It Is. You want peace, you claim. How much do you want It? You can have It, soon as you like If you'll lake It on my terms." "And they are?" "Marry me. Do Hint, an' I'll agree to make peace with Wcs Steelman an' these young squirts he has taken up with." She felt the blood beating Into her face, "You want to make a bargain with me," she cried bitterly. "I'm to sell myself to you In order to get you to do what a reasonable man would be glad to do because It Is right. That's no way to to ask a girl to marry you. It's an Insult F.vcn If (lure was a chance for girl to be happy that would ruin It to start with." "What makes you always qtinrrel with me?" he asked Impatiently. "Why do you mist what I say an' put something In my mind that's not there? oirl, I want to mnrry you. I've always wanted to slnrr I first saw Jon. What's the sense of always rowellln' me wlih yore spitfire words?" "Why do you want to marry me?" she flamed at him. "Because It would madden Father. Becane you'd hnve the whlphaml. Because you'd like t break my spirit" His hands went out and cancht her arum Just above the elbow. sii, could feel the pressure of his strong fingers on the firm nVlt of her forearms.

"Because I want you for my male an' mean to have you. Because there's no girl like you on the river no, nor anywhere else. Pecause" he gulped the words out. almost savagely "I wouldn't e1 yore 11T finger for any other woman I've ever known." He snatched her Into his arms and held her close, looking down hungrily Into the dark eyes which now denied him nothing, which In their soft and shining depth held gifts never before offered to any man. There was a little rustling moveher body toward him. Perwas only an unconscious happiness. She felt love through her quivering be- ment of haps It sigh of pouring ing. Ingram kissed the palpitant brown throat, the glowing eyes, the red Hps between which gleamed perfect Ivory teeth. The touch of love had awakened her. She was a flaming flower, incomparably desirable lu her soft and Joyous vitality. From her surrender, so full of Innocent and passionate abandon, the man plucked an emotion new to his experience. "My mate! My woman 1" he cried exultantly. In her bosom there was a burst of gong. From her soft throat came a happy little laugh. "If you care as much as that," she mur- mured. Shyly she withdrew from his embrace, her cheek flying a flag of color. "We're all alike, we women," she luughed tremulously. "We want our man and a home." He came to earth and the less Important business of the day. "Tell yore fnther It's to be peace between ns. I'll sure be easy to do business with." "I can't tell Dad. He mustn't know I've been here. It's to be a secret yet about us. You'll have to make friends with him first I'll tell Mr. O'Hara, an' he'll meet you." They talked long- - before they parted. Ingram watched her ride out of sight before he turned to climb to the mesa above. For the hour at least she had given him a new vision of life. Through all the hardness and hatred of the feud she bad contrived to remain sweet and fine as the gong of a meadow lark. He felt himself a small removed thing, Infinitely from the stars to which she looked so bravely. Put he realized this conviction was but for the moment. He knew that he was what he was, what the years and environment and his ancestry bad made hitn, a hard and willful man, one who would go his own way at all cost Men were not born again, not In tills workaday world. He would make peace, because circumstances forced bis hand, because the path he wanted to follow lay that way. But he must continue since It was In bis horoscope, to trample down those who opposed blm on his road to success. As he rode tip to the Hughes ranch he recognized a claybnnk cow pony at the bitch rack near the house. Several men were sitting on the porch. Leaning against one of the end posts, a rifle across his legs, sat Bob Quantrell, smok but Ing a clgurette Insolently warily. "What are you doing here?" demanded Ingram harshly. The lad took the cigarette from his mouth and blew out a fat smoke wreath lazily. "The short an' sweet of it Is thnt I'm here lookln' for a Job. I'm through n It h that other outfit. I dont like their ways an' they don't like mine." "You've got the nerve to come here, after what you did the day before yesterday." Ingram said blackly. "All In the way of business, the boy replied airily. Dave," "What" would you exKct? I was workln' for Sleelmnn's crowd then. Like I said, I've quit 'em.

The big cattle man did not lift bis eyes from the slim lad with the This youngster receding chin. grinning at him with his buck teeth showing was the most notorious bad man In the territory. In time men would come from afar to write books about his wild career, though none r those present could guess that his repute would some day be nationwide.
