terrorized for forr r more ore than a n year now by a gang of ot outlaws who have ha their headquarters somewhere In the the mountains at the tIle back hack Their leader Is n a half-breed half Mexican n named med n Carrillo-a a very able ablo fellow ell n ngone gone wrong I 1 understand He lIe us used ell to be a n lawyer law down In Arizona somewhere but he was mixed up in several se shady transactions finally beanie became be be- anie came Involved In a n. counterfeiting deal kiU killed the the United States marshal who tried to arrest him and aud skipped the country countr between en two days We hadn't hind hall an any trouble with WWI them however until about a n week before your ned acci dent One of ot Carrillo's Carrillos lieutenants a fellow named Lopez with three or four tour companions raided one of my camps killed the man in charge and ran oft off a dozen horses We struck their trail within three thre e hours hourd after the murder and chased them right Into the mountains We caught Lopez and strung him up but his two compan compan- companions companions companions ions got awa away A few days das later Carrillo Carrillo Car Car- rillo sent me word that he would even en up the score and and hes he's a n man lUan that will keep his word That's what I mean by llY saying g that when you and Miss Ivanoff are out riding you ou had better keep to the valley and not get too far tar away from the house Much obliged for tor the advice nd said Morton Morion lightly Yet so so- little Importance did Morton attach to Ellsworth's warning that when he and Olga took their customary customary customary custom custom- ary ride the following afternoon he deliberately ventured beyond the bounds which he knew v to be dictated by safety When the setting sun warned them that It was time Ume to return return re re- turn they found that they were considerably con con- farther from the than they had supposed Turning their ponies they were proceeding homeward homeward homeward home home- ward at a brisk lope when they theT were surprised to see a party of ot horsemen ride rille out from tram a canyon which debouched de de- Into the main valley and cometo come cometo to a halt as though awaiting them It must be some of the cowboys from the ranch remarked Olga waiting to ride back with us us As they drew nearer however Morton Morton Morton Mor Mor- ton noticed with some uneasiness that the tho horsemen had spread out so faras far tar faras taras as to form a line extending from the mouth of the canyon to the river thus cutting cutting- them off ort from the There was WIlS moreover something cua- cua something peculiarly sinister about the riders each of whom he now noticed carried a rl rifle e across the pommel of is saddle Hold up Olga i 1 he called the truth buth suddenly dawning on him Those are not our fellows they're strangers we had better not go any nearer nearer until we we find out who they are and what they want lie He Was Vas not kept long In doubt asto as asto asto to the tile strangers strangers' Intentions for ns fiS they pulled up their ponies a rifle cracked and a bullet kicked up a n spurt of dust within a yard of Morton By heaven I he shouted its the bandits And they've cut us off on front from the tho ranch I r Our only chance is to reach Number Four camp There are aro half u a dozen of Ellsworth's Elisworth's men there and If It we can get et there we will bo be safe sate But we will have to ride rillo like blazes to make It Suiting the tIle action to the words he whirled his pony drove his Ida spurs Into Its flanks and callously abandoning Olga to her ber fate fute went racing up tho the valley In a desperate attempt to es es- es- es cape Olga whose mount was old and slow had not gone a u quarter of oC a rr mile mUe before she was overtaken by the bandits bandits ban ban- dUs and a bearded leaning from his saddle caught her bridle brillie and pulled her horse to a standstill Keep quiet and null you wont won't get hurt miss he sold said but If It you try to get away It'll go hard hurd with you What do you want of ot me mer she demanded showing no sign of ot tho terror ter ter- terror that she

transferred from the tha wounded animal to the stolen one and Morton his hands bound was hoisted into the saddle Olga and her captors having now come up the entire party turned into the can canyon on After Atter an hour of ot brisk riding the steadily Increasing roughness of oC tho the country compelled the tIle bandits to slacken their pace to a n walk at nt which gait ait they continued 1 until long after darkness had hud fallen At last when Olga and null Morton were reeling In their saddles from exhaustion cabana cabana- tion they enter entered d a small walled rock valley through which ran

you think there Is any chance of our being rescued whispered Olga to Morton as os she tried to wrap her aching body bolly In the tIle blanket They must have started searching for us when we didn't show up at the UIO ranch for supper he answered he-answered gloomily gloomily gloom gloom- II ily but they wont won't have any means of knowing which way we ha have hae e gone gone Yes they will she whispered I 1 thought of that and when we returned up the cnn canyon on I dropped rn my handkerchief chief chic on the ground without the bandits bandits bandits ban ban- noticing Good Goo work commended Morton orton i C C 1 i When supper time at the tile ranch came and went without the return of Olga and Morton their host became worried and when darkness fell and there were still sUll no signs signs signs' of them his Ills worry changed to downright alarm lIe He was In fact on the point of ot ordering out a searching party when his fears were confirmed by a cowboy who pulled hIs Ills reeking pony to Its haunches es before the door The The feller feHer land and the girl that's been sta in hero here here- he he began breathlessly Yes yes s 's Interrupted Ellsworth What about them Carrillos got em 1 I Are Arc you sure the de de- Hell of course Im I'm sure sure the cow- cow In obedience to his orders Olga and Morton with their two guards pushed on up the hill while the bandits too took shelter behind rocks and trees to check tho the advance of the tho men of the Bar E. Just as the prisoners and their guards reached the tho overhanging crags which marked the tile entrance to the pass a splutter of rifle fire suddenly broke broko out below V them The cowboys and the tho bandits were In action Morton Instinctively ely checked hl his horse to listen lis Us- ten but time the outlaw named Jose Joso tapped his rifle with so significant a gesture that the I Easterner moved forward without n a word of ot protest Leaving the pass their trail now le led 1 across the roughest country that Morton Morton Mor ton had ever er seen been Jose turned his horse from the trail and pushing his wn way through a screen of ot underbrush entered a n narrow cleft In what appeared ap from a little distance to be he t q solid oUd wall of ot rock to emerge a n moment mo mo- ment meat later in a veritable secret val ley Icy From the top of ot one of the cliffs n a mountain stream tumbled In a series of ot cascades and waterfalls to the valley valley val ley Icy floor across which It wound and twisted to disappear upon the other side Beside the stream some tents were pitched and beyond them m was an open fireplace over which a n man was cooking Instead of disc i mounting at the tho tents their guards conducted Olga and Morton straight across tho little valley toward the cliffon curt cliff on tho the opposite side As they OPT api preached Morton noticed cut In the tha face of the cliff a n square aperture which resembled the entrance to tf n small tunnel or to the gallery of a a mine lIe He guessed and rightly that It was the entrance to one ono of those thos natural caverns with which the Sierras Sierras Sier Sier- ras abound and which the bandit leader lend lead er had utilized as ns a habitation Jose exchanged a few words In Spanish with a n fellow bandit evidently a n sen sentry sentry try who was lounging at the entrance and evidently e receiving an answer I Ithe la iu lathe the affirmative flung himself from hi his hl horse and strode with jangling spurs SPUl'S Into the cavern ern Ogla and Morton dejectedly sitting their horses could hear a murmur of voices within but the words were Indistinguishable Presently Jose reappeared red nc n nied led by a man who the captives Instantly In divined ined was the outlaw chief chic himself They Thc were In the r ra a c u u rc all n be le to secure ec e all ll necessary s e in- in I In m with reference to plans plan i I permanent organization and ap ap- ap- ap for loans On this court com cour- t f. are W W.
