Belding saw Gale grow deathly white and suddenly stand.stock-still. “Chase threatened you, then?” asked Dick; and the forced naturalness of his voice struck Belding. | “phreatened me? He made my life & nightmare," replied Nell, in a rush of speech. “He got so half the time, ‘when he was drunk, he didn’t want er ask me to be his wife.

DIck wext fnto his room without speaking, “Shore somethin’s comin’ off,” said; Ladd, sharply; and he sat'up with his keen eyes narrowing. Belding spoke a few words; and, remembering. an' fmpression he had wishpd ‘to' make upon Mr. Gale, he made them strong. “Better stop that boy,” he conclud- ed, looking “at Mr. Gale. ' “He’M' do some mischief. - He’s,wilder'n h—L." Just then Dick came out of his"door. “Richard, _where ‘are you golng:” asked his ‘father. % “I'm going to beat a dog.” Then Dick strode oft the porch. “Hold on!” Ladd’s voice avould have stopped almost any.man. “Dick, you wasn't agoin’ without me?’ “Yes, I was. "But I'm thoughtless Just now, Laddy,”" % “Shore you was. Wait a minute, Dick.” T'm a sick man, but at that no- body ‘can pull any stunts round here without ‘me.” He hobbled along the porch and ‘went into his room. Jim Lash knocked the ashes out of his pipe, and, hum- ming his dance tune, he followed Ladd. In a moment. the rangers ap- peared, and both were packing guns. “Where will we find these Chases?” asked Dick of Belding. “They’ve got a place down the road adjoining the inn. They call it thelr club. At this hour Radford will be there sure. I don’t know about the old man. But his office is now just across the way.” They passed several houses, turned a ‘corner into'the main street, and ! stopped at a wide, low adobe struc- ture. The place was a hall, and need- ed only. a bar to make it a saloon. A large table near a window was sur- rounded by a noisy, smoking, drinking circle of card-players. “Point out this Radford Chase to “There! The big fellow with the red face. His eyes stick out a little. See! -He's dropped his cards and his face isn’t red any more.” Dick strode across the room. His heavy boot shot up, dnd with a crash the table split, and glasses, cards, chips flew everywhere. As they rattled down and the chairs of the dumfound- ed players began to slide Dick called out: .“My name.is Gale.; I'm looking for Mr. Radford Chase.” A tall, heavy-shouldered fellow rose, boldly enough, even swaggeringly and glowered at Gale. - “I'm Radford Chase,” he said. ' His tv;;lce betrayed the boldness of his ac- on. 1t.was over.in a few. moments. The | | tables and chairs were tumbled into a heap; a- pool table had been shoved aside; a lamp lay . shattered, with oll running dark upon the floor. Ladd leaned against. a post with a smoking gun in his hand. . A Mexican crouched close to the wall moaning over a bro- ken arm. In the far corner upheld by comrades another wounded Mexi- can crled out in pain. These two had attempted to draw weapons upon Gale, and Ladd had crippled them. In the center of the room lay Rad- ford Chase, a lmp, torn, hulking, bloody figure. He was not seriously | injured.
