TOPLAY After the death of Pancho, Liberty and Pedro left the house and went to the quarters of the peons Lat the rear of the ranch, for the purpose of viewing the body of Lopez, to be sure that there was no mistake. He had been placed on a cot in one corner of the room, and, as Liberty gazed on all that was left of the bandit leader, she reviewed the pain and terror this man had subjected her to. And yet, as she stood there she could hardly suppress her admiration for his eourage and determination. Later, when the sun was well on Its way towards the western horizon, Liberty, leaving some of the peons in charge of the hacienda, came out and mounted a fresh horse which had Seen brought up by Pedro, who took his place on another beside hers, and the two started away.

So, when the Major and Bob reached the White House they were shown into the executive office, where they found the president seated at his desk writing. Bob was not the least bit nervous, for he looked upon the man before him as one who had simply been a little more lucky than he had been. The Major was truly a remarkable figure in his blue uniform, with Its gold lace, and despite his years, he carried himself with the same assurance which had always characterized him as a distinguished But, underpersonage. neath that uniform he carrried seventeen bullet wounds, which die had received' in the service of his country.

I will have to send a squad to the hacienda in order that we may have an official corroboration of this, he continued as he handed the message to one of his aides, with instructions to see that it was sent immediately. While these scenes were being enacted near the border, Rutledge tind the Major were far from idle In Washington. Immediately upon his arrival the Major had gone to the jail, where it did not take him long to effect the release of Bob. Then they went to the hotel where both cleaned themselves up, after which they donned thqir best uniforms and started for the White House, f The Major had previously been to the war department, where, after a session with the secretary, during which he explained matters so satisfactorily that he was given back his commission, an appointment had been never ' leave Miss Horton. red cheek. r J'And heres Pedro, said Bob as he turned to the faithful old slave who was standing nearby gazing about him. For Pedro had never been north of theHorton estate before in his life, and his expression showed it too. A few moments later the party entered a taxicab and were taken to one of the big hptels on Pennsylvania avenue. As v they alighted from the cab the newsboys could be heard shouting, Extra! Extra! Bob bought one of the papers, and, as they entered the hotel he glanced at the headlines. There, in a great scare head across the entire front page of the paper was the announcement that Lopez, the bandit, had been captured by Liberty Horton. Below this was the story, which alluded to Liberty as the national heroine and stated that the president was giving a reception In her honor that night, at which time she was to be decorated. Liberty, who stood reading the. news over Bobs shoulder, was so overcome by the notoriety' that she shrank from going to the reception. But the Major and Bob finally overcame her quams and she .started for her room to prepare for the evening. When Bob came down for dinner later, in his evening clothes, Liberty was already in the parlor waiting for him. As his gaze fell on her he decided she was the most beautiful picture he had ever seen. And the Major, who was right behind, him, in full reShe was dressed galia, applauded. in a gown of light pink which enhanced her complexion- and added a charm to her gracefulness and perfect poise. He was the proudest man in the world, for she was the cynosure of all eyes as she swept through the corridors on his arm. y After dinner the party started to leave the hotel when the Major noted that Pedro was not among them. He advised Bob and Liberty to go on to the White House while he went off to look for Pedro. As the taxicab started off with Bob and Liberty, the ranger was too happy to speak, but when he did it was the most important speech he ever made In his life.' Liberty was seated beside him, her hand gently resting in his, her gaze fixed on the street with Ps myriad of lights which flitted ' ' past. Bob was thinking and thinking hard.
