Gilbert Proprictors HOLDERS ARE URGED TO EXCHANGE WAR STAMPS __“It is hoped that every person who can do so will exchange War Savings Stamps, soon to fall due, for Treas- ury certificates,” said Postmaster A. P. Ritchie, of Bemidji. “The large amount of money in- vested and the great-number of per- sons who purchased war savings stamps showed that the people of this country could save meney when the necessity arose. Nawy: if they will take the money they sived when they bought stamps Qld the: gov- ernment in the prosechtion of, the war and buy Trenmry savings cérti- ficates, they will demonstrate that the thrift lessons of the war have not been without effect. The holders of war savings stamps have seen investments of about $20,- 50 grow to $25'in five years, and larger amounts in the same propor- tion. They can see the same thing repeated if they reinvest in Treas- ury savings certificates. Interest accumulates at the rate of 4 per cent each year, compcunded semi-annual- :ly. These savings certificates are {exempt from the normal Federal in- .come tax, and from all state and lo- cal taxation (except estate and in- heritance taxes,. and may be held to the amount of $5,000, maturity value, for each issue, by every mem- ber of the family. They are backed \by the credit of the United States Government, and afford an easy and sure method of saving.” SLICE OF TEXAS LAND (Continued from page 1) the lands in violation of the act. When the Indians protested this vi lation of the treaty, they were d en out of the territory by the mili- tary forces of the Republic, without compensation for their lands they claim, A suit for recovery of the lands mentioned in the treaty of 1835 will be held up pendinz action of the legislature on the claim of the In- d.ans. The suit will be based upon an- other agreement which the early pioneers made with the Indians while the State of Texas was still a pari of Mexico. The Indians claim thal when the Texans established a yrovisional government and ‘threw off the yoke of Mexico, they made 2 pact with the Indian tribes of Tex- 4s, decreeing that the Indians had a just claim to the lands they were then occupying and signed a pledge renewing the bond of fealty between the two races and establishing the right of the redmen to that tract of land. This was done, the Indians claim, to gain the support of the Indian tribes in the hostilities with Mexico. Besides the Cherokee Indians, other tribes that are a party to the proposed suit are the Shawnees, Del- ‘ewares, Choctaws, Kickapoos, Ala- bamas and several smaller tribes. The Indians claim they have the right to sue the State of Texas as a successor to the old Republic of Texas.

As the sun climbed the clear sky, steely lights van- ished, the blue hazes deepened, and | slowly the glistening surfaces of lava | turned reddes. Ladd was concerned | to discover that Yaqui was missing from his outlgok upon the high point. Jim Lash came out of the shady crev- ice, and stood up to buckle on his car- tridge belt. His narrow, gray glance slowly roved from the height of lava down along the slope, paused in doubt, and then swept on to resurvey the whole vast eastern dip of the plateau. “I reckon my eyes are pore,” he sald. “Mebbe it’s this d—n red glare. Any- way, what’s them creepin’ spots up there?” “Shore I 'seen them. Mountain sheep,” replied Ladd. “Guess again, Laddy. Dick, I reckon youw'd better flash the glass up the slope.”’ Gale adjusted the field glass and be- gan to search the lava, beginning close at hand and working away from him, Presently the glass became stationary. “1 see half a dozen small animals, brown in color. They look like sheep. But I ‘couldn’t distinguish mountain sheep from antelope.” “Shore they're bighorn,” said Laddy. “I reckon if yowll pall around to the east an’ search under that long wall of lava—there—yow’ll see what I see,” added Jim. b The glass climbed and circled, wa- vered an instant, then fixed steady as a rock. There was a breathless silence. “Fourteen horses —two pncked — some mounted—others without, riders, and lame,” saild Gale, slowly. Yaqui appeared far up_the trail, coming swiftly. Presently he saw the rangers and halted to wave his arms and point. Then he vanished as if the lava had opened beneath him. “Lemme thav glass,” suddenly sald Jim Lash. “I'm seein’ red, I tell you. . . . Well, pore as my eyes are they had it right. Rojas an’ his outfit have left the trall. Laddy, I'll be dangéd if the Greaser bunch hasn’t vamoosed. Gone out of sight! Right there not a half mile away, the whole caboodle— gone!” “Shore they're behind a crust or have gone down Into a rut,” suggested Ladd. “They’ll show again in a min- ute. Look sharp, boys, for I'm fig- gerin® Rojas ’Il spread his men.” From time to time the rangers looked inquiringly at Gale. The field glass, however, like the naked sight, could not catch the siightest moving object out there upon the lava. A long hour of slow, mounting suspense wore on. “Shore it's all goin’ to be as queer as the Yaqil,” sald Ladd. Indeed, the strange mien, the silent action, the somber character of the Indian had not been without effect upon the minds of the men. Then the welrd, desolate, tragic scene added to the vague sense of mystery. And now the disappearance of Rojas’ band, the long walt in the silence, the boding certainty of invisible foes crawling, circling closer and closer, lent to the situation a final touch that made it unreal. “I'm reckonl.n' there’s a mind be- hind them Greasers,” replied Jim. “Or mebbe we ain’t done Rojas credit. .o It somethin’ would only come off!” That Lash, the coolest, the most provokingly nonchalant of men in times of peril, should begin to show a nervous strain was all the more in- dicative of a subtle pervndlng unr reality. “Boys, look sharp!” suddenly called Lash, “Low down to the left—mebbe three hupdred yards. See, along by them seams of lava—behind the cho- yas. First off I thought it was a sheep. 'But it's the Yaqui! Crawlin’ swift as a lizard! Can’t ymx see him?” It was a full moment before Jim's companions could locate the Indian. Flat as a snake, Yaqui wound him- self along with incredible rapidity. His advance was alk thé more remark- able for the fa¢t that he appeared to pass -directly under the drended €ho- yas. Sometimes he paused to lift his herd and look. “Shore he's headin’ for that high place,” said Ladd. “He's going slow now. There, he's stopped behind some choyas. He's gettin’ up—no, he's "kneelin’. Now what the h—1!" “Laddy, take a peek at the side of that lava ridge,” sharply called Jim. “I guess mebbe somethin’ ain’t comin’ off. See! There’s Rejas an’ his outfit climbin’. Don’t make out no.hosses. Dick, use your glass an’ tell us what's doin’. I'll watch Yaqui-an’ tell you what his move moans.” Clearly and distinct!y, almost as if he could have tonched them, Gale had Rojas and his followers in sight. They were toiling up the rough lava on foot. COPYRIGHT! “ZC— " HARPER AND SROTHEARS. ZANE GREY it Riders of the Purple Sage. “There! They halt on top. saying.” I see Rojas. He looks wild.

Which. one I can’t say. But I think he’ll pick Rojas.” “The Yaqui can shoot. He'll plck Rojas,” added Gale, grimly. “Rojas—yes—yes!” cried Thorne, in passion of suspense. “Not on your life!” Ladd's voice cut In with scorn. “Gentlemen. you can gamble Yaqui’ll kill the Papago. That traitor Indian knows these sheep haunts. He’s ‘tellin’ Rojas—" A sharp riftgishot rang out. “Laddy’s right” called Gale. Papago’s hit—his arm falls. he tumbles.” 1 More shots rang out. Yaqul was seen standing. erect firing rapidly at the darting Mexicans. For all Gale could make ‘out no-second ‘bullet took effect. Rojas’and his‘men vanished behind the bnlge of lava. The Yaqul deliberately backed away from his po- sition: Helmade no effort to run or hide. « Presently fie turned and- came _straight toward - the position of the rangers, sheered.off perhaps'a hun- dred, paces below it, and disappeared in o ‘créviee. Plainly his intention was to draw pursuers witiln rifle shot. Another wait set in then, and judg- - direct rays-of the g of the little shad- he choyas,: Gale was:of It's a Papago. "The There, “He's Raisin’ His Rifle Slow. How Slow He Is!” Lord, the opinion that it was a long wait. But it seemed short. Gale had the upper position, farthest to the right, and therefore was best shielded from possibe fire from the higher ridges of the rim, some three hundred yards distant. Jim' came next, well hidden in a crack. The positions of Thorne and Ladd were most exposed. They kept sharp lookout over the uneven rampart of their hiding-place. Suddenly the dead stillness was rent by a shot, clear and stinging, close at hand. It was from a rifle, not a carbine, With startling quick- ness a cry followed—a cry that plerced Gale—it was so thin, so high- keyed, so different from all other cries. It was the involuntary human shriek’ of death. »- (Continued In Next Issue) Only tod oftenis that annoying little cough the warning of iil- ness to come. Checi its develop- ment with Dr. King’s.
