Allan Dunn CHAPTER XXI Continued. 20 The mare took the cold river water about her fetlocks with a little shiver, wading In to the girths, sliding to a deep pool where she had to swim a few strokes before she found gravel under her hoofs and scrambled out. Suddenly, while Sandy hesitated how best to arrange his patrol, a horse came floundering out of the pines less than a quarter of a mile away, a black horse, shining with sweat, tired to Its limit, staggering In its stride, the rider hunched In the saddle more like CHAPTER XXII The Very End. There was a council held later that day, that was almost a council of war. Sandy was In the chair, Mormon and Sam present, Molly the Indignant speaker-in-chle- f. Tm very much ashamed of all of you," she said. "An agreement Is an agreement, and we were to share as we arranged. We shook hands upon it. Tve had three times as much as any one of you, as it Is. I haven't spent all of It, Sandy tells me. "I've got to accept Sandy's share of It, I suppose, because it goes with Sandy. As for you, Sam Manning, you'll need your third when you mar-ry Kate Nicholson." Soda-Wate- r Sam gasped. "Marry Miss Nicholson?" "Certainly. She expects you to." "She Molly, it ain't no Jokin' mat-ter with me. She wouldn't look at a rough-hide- d cuss like me." "You ask her, Sammy. Mormon, 1 suppose you'll have to hRne fire until you find out about that third wife. I a sack of meal than a man. Before Sandy could turn the mare toward them three riders burst from the trees like bolts from a crossbow, spurring their mounts, the two in the lead swinging lariats. They divided, one to either side of the foundering black stallion, one at the rear, gain-ing, angling In. The ropes slithered out, the loops seemed to hang like suspended rings of wire for a second before they settled down, fair and true, about the neck and shoulders of the blnck's rider. They tightened, the lariats snubbed to the saddle horns, the horses sliding with flattened pas-terns. The black lunging on, pitched forward as It was relieved of a sud-den weight and its rider Jerked hideously from the saddle, hands clawing at the ropes that choked his gullet, wrenching, sinking deep, shut-ting off air and light with a horrid taste of blood and the noise of thun-dering waters. The ropers wheeled their mounts and galloped back toward the woods, the limp body of their victim drag-ging, bouncing over the ground. The third rode to meet Sandy. It was Brandon. He hailed Sandy with sur-- A Fifiurt Was Perched Upon the Fence, Waiting. hope the fourth time will be the charm. It will if you marry Miranda Bailey." "You're sure talkln' like a matri-monial boorow, Molly," said Mormon "I sure think a sight of Mirandy. She's different from my first three. They all married me, fo' me to look out fo' them. If Mirandy can be per. suaded to take me it's becos she Is wlllln' to look after me. She 'lows I need It," he added, sheepishly. "Then the meeting Is closed," said Molly. "I accept your apologies and you beep your money." Mormon and Sam rose. With a glance at each other that ended In a wink, they left the room Molly turned to Sandy. "You didn't give me back my luck-piec- e, Sandy." "Wiflt does a mascot want with a luck-piece- "She would like It made into an en-gagement ring, Snndy." "Why not a weddin ring,' Molly, Molly mine?" THE ENT prise. "How'd you happen here this time of night, Bourke? Not looking for me'" "No. I was looking for the man you've Just caught. I was about a minute too late." Brandon glnnced curiously at San-dy, caught by the grim note In his voice. But he made no comment. "Sorry If I spoiled your private vendetta, Bourke. You can have him, what's left of him, if you want. We wre going to swing him from a tree with a card on his chest presenting him to Hereford county, with our compliments. As It is, Bourke, I'd be relieved if you'd keep out of this en-tirely. Even forgetting you'd met us. We're within our rights, but we've done some cleunlng up tonight that we might have to explain If we stayed too long In the state. We got the goods on rilmsoll; one of his men whose girl rilmsoll had stolen helped us to pin them on him. We met him at Hereford. I'm going to send the facts and proofs to your authorities. They may not approve of lynch law these days, but they wouldn't act and we did. I don't fancy they'll bother us any. He wasn't worth the ropes he spoiled. Just as well you kept out of the mix-up.- " Sandy snld nothing. There was no need to mention Molly's adventure. "Want to be sure It's him" asked Brandon. The body of rilmsoll lay at the foot of a big pine. The loop were still tight shout his neck. One of the roies had been tossed over a bough. The two men had dismounted. Tbey nodded to Sandy as he came np with Brandon. They were horse owners, responsible men, who considered they had administered Justice, who felt no more qualms concerning the dead man than If his body had been the carcass of a slaughtered steer. "Waiting for the rest of the boys to come up," sold Brandon. "We'll hit the trail home tonight. Bourke wants to identify the body, boys." Sandy looked down at the contort-ed, blackened fnce, and his disap-pointment at having been forestalled, nedlmented down. The gambler's fea-tures had not been made placid by death: they still held much of the horror of the last moments of that relentless chase, his horse falling un-der him, foreknowledge of sudden death and then the whistling ropes, the Jerk Into eternity . . .1 It whs a thing to he forgotten, a nightmare that had nothing to do with the new day ahead. "It's I'llmsoll," said Sandy shortly. "I'm rldln' back to Three .Star. I found nlm hangln' to o tree. Cood night, hombres."

GoodRoads Will Keep Boys and Girls on Farm "The . Kansas Automobile Owners' association believes good roads will induce more country boys and girls to stay on the farms and more city boys and girls to go to the farms," de-clares & J. Heckle, in the Topeka Capital. "Government statistics compiled at intervals during the past thirty years have shown, and do show, a steady tide of Immigration of farm boys and girls Into the cities," Heckle said. "But the automobile owners see a powerful counter-irritan- t, which If generally adopted, will reverse the tide and send the farm-bre- d boy and girl back to the farm and take with them a number of their city-reare- d cousins. "That is a state system of highways, such as the project proposed for Kan-sas, which would include 6,575 miles of hard-surface- d road that could be traveled 305 days a year, without one cent of additional cost to the taxpay-ers. "One of the principal causes of the pull of the cities Is the unimproved or only slightly improved roads which are an effectual barrier between the fanner, his wife and children and the undoubted pleasure and gayety that the city and town life offers. With the advent of the automobile this bar-rier was in a way removed, but rain and bad weather promptly replaces it periodically. "This project to break down the last barrier between the farm and city in Kansas includes the passage of a bill, at the next legislature, sub-mitting to the people of Kansas a proposition authorizing a state system of highways to be paid for by the funds raised annually by the present automobile license fees. "The plan also Includes removal of the automobile trora the personal property tax list. This feature In It-self would tend to reduce the taxes of every automobile owner and give Kansas an Improved system of 805-da-y roads, touching every county and every Important trade center In the state."

Highway Improvement Is Costing Billion a Year The magnitude of the country's road improvement program Is emphasized in a summary of the government's par-ticipation made by Thomas IL Mac-Donal- d, chief of the United States bureau of public roads, who was the principal speaker at the twentieth an-nual convention of the American Road Builders' association, held ih New York city. "Long strides have been made In im-provement of roads in the United States," he said, "but the building pro-gram of the country has scarcely been dented. The federal government gives a little more than 6 per cent of aid to states and localities In meeting the ex-penses of improving roads. Since 1918 the bureau of public toads bos under-taken a program of 180,000 miles of road Improvement help. "Throughout the United States last year a total of $970,000,00 was spent by the federal government, the states, counties, and municipalities In building and improving ronrts. There are 2,800,-00- 0 miles of roads in this country, of which 2.500,000 mUes remain to be im- - nrnved. "Building of good automobile roads will not hurt railroads but will help them. Statistics In hand will disprove the contention held by some that states expending funds for motor roads are spending money for the beneflt of the country at large rather than for the states themselves. "Most of the trafnc Is local, that is within the state. Take the case of Connecticut, for Instance, There the traffic on the highways Is TO per cent local That Is, It Is traffic confined within the state's borders, giving the state the largest beneflt of its road Im-provement In general, we have found that 35 per cent of the road traffic on automobile highways Is truck or short-hau- l traffic and that V5 per cent Is pleasure. But the bulk of traffic re-mains within state boundaries." Footloose. "Le's go walkln', Miss Johnslng. I feels klndu pedestrian tonight" "All right. I feels klndu walkativs muh own self."

Naturalists have noticed that the abandoned forms offer great oppor-tunity for the study of bird life, and i be birds iseem to frequent these for some reason. Edmund J. Sawyer of Syracuse, N. Y who has commented on this fact in articles for various publications, says that while 'he birds to be found at these places are mostly of the commoner varieties, hut for purposes of observation the abandoned farms offer great because of the numbers to be encountered. Within 800 feet of one of these houses he found nests with n,'gs and young of eleven species. The Hindus wrote of the penrl's beauty more than 1,000 years before Oirlst. Hard Roads Movement Is Gaining in Popularity The hard roads movement Is gather-ing power as It moves. T. C. Powell, vice president of the Erie Railroad Co.. Is reported to have said, "The time has come when the nation's railroad fa-- Hlltles are so heavily taxed by the enormous tonnage offered that there Is only one way in wnin we inj h-- -, freight hauled. And that Is by asking business men to employ motor trucks f(1r the short hauls, say, up to thirty miles or so, thus releasing railroad facilities nnd equipment for the longer haul which can go by no other means" A Philosopher.
