THE STORY THUS FAR Pierce Phillips, after helping . the Countess Courteau back over Chil- koot Pass, in Alaska, where he had gone to seek gold in the newly dis- covered ficlds, meets up with the Mc- Caskey brothers, chance acquaint- ances on the hazardous trail. While in their tent they are arrested and held for the theft of provisions from the other miners. The McCaskey brothers had held dn trust part of Phillips savings and they not only accused him of the theft but claimed that they had been robbed of Phillips’ money. At a bel- Kigerent miners’ meeting guilt was fastened on him and all the persua- sion of ’Poleon Doret, o he had met on the trail, could not dis- suade them. | At an opportune time Countess Courteau comes to his resewe, telling the mob that she knew Phillips to have been on the trail at the time he Fae to have committed the Jim McCaskey, one of the Brothers, edged forward I acy the crowd’ aad <iVhat® he idee, nghow? “Are Sox s e an: re stuck om this Wid?” CHAPTER IV. (Continued) The Countess Courteau eyed her interrogator coolly, her cheeks main- tained their even coloring, her eyes were as icy blue as ever. It was lain that she was in no wise em- arrassed by his insinuation. Very quietly she said: “I'll telt you whether I am if you'll tell me who got his thousand dollars. Was it your brother?” Jim McCog ey re- coiled; his face whitened. “Who hit you over the head?’ ” the woman per- sisted. “Did he?" “That's none of your business,” Jim, shouted. “I want to know what you're doing in this case. You say the kid was in Linderman last night. Well, I say—you're a—! How d’you know he didn’t steal that rice be- fore he left, for that matter?” “I know he was in Linderman be- cause 1 was with hi: “With him? All night?” The speaker grinned eae RAO “Yes, all night. slept in the same tent with him and—" “Now I’ve got your number,” the younger McCaskey cried, in tri- umph. + “Bah!” The Countess shi unconcernedly. “As for the rice ingstolen before he— “Countess.” Hal” Jim burst forth again. “Swell countess you are! The Dyea dance-halls are fult of ‘countesses’ like you—counting percentage checks. Boys, who are you going to believe? She slept all night—” McCaskey got no further, for with a cry of rage Pierce Phillips set his muscles and landed upon him. It was a mighty blow and it found lodgment upon the side of its vic- tim’s face, ed It was’ blow dnd it found lodgment upoh is viet cn, Jim McCaskey went down-and his assailant, maddened completely by the feel of his enemy’s flesh, lunged forward to stamp him beneath his heels. But stout arms seized him, bodies intervened, and he was hurled backward. A shout arose; there was,a general scramble for the raised platform. There were; yells of: “Shame!” “Hang on to him!” “Stretch him up!” “Dirty ingrate!” Phillips fought with desperation; his struggles caused the structure to creak and to. strain; mee. piled over it and joined in the fight. whining and sobbing: in his fury.’ Meanwhile ready hands had res- cued Jim from. the trampling feet and now held his limp erect. It was the clarion Countess Cousteau. which first made itself heard above the din. She had climbed to the rajling and was poised there, with one arm outfung, a quivering Fl ig leveled até Jim} ay McCaskey’s h “Look!” she cried. “Look, men —at his head! There's proof that he’s been lying!” The victim of the], assault had lost his cap in the scuf- fle, and with it had age. His head was bare now, and, oddly enough, it showed no matte: hair, no cut, no. bruise, no oneiling. It was, in, » @ perfectly ne healthy, well-preserved cranium, Phillips ceased his sts les; he passed a shaking hand over. eyes to clear his vision; his captors re- leased him .and crowded closer to Jim McCaskey, who was now show- ing the first signs of returning con- sciousne: “He told you he was held. w that his skull was cracked,’ didn’ he?” The Countess threw back im i head and laughed unrestrainedly. “My!

' “Well, my ma: y" she cried, in a, shaking voice, ‘now you know what | kind of a woman I am. ‘Counting, percentage ~checks, ech?” seemed upon the point of reaching | out and throttling Jim with her lo: + strong fingers. “Let's see you a your precious brother do a ae count Count out a , thousand dollars for this boy. Quick!” It was Poleon Doret who searched | the palsied victim. While other hands restrained the older brother he went through the younger one and, Uokdee Hd so, handed Pierce Phillips a bulky envelope addressed in the | latter’s handwriting. “She's yours, ch?” 'Poleon in- quired. G Phitlips made 2 hasty- examina- tion, then nodded. The Countess turned once more to the crowd. “I move that you apolo; size to Mr. Phillips. Are you game?” Her question met with a yell. of approval. “Now, then, there’s. a new case on the docket, and the charge is highway ‘robbery. Are you ready te vote a verdict?” Her “face was ‘set, her eyes still flashed, “Guilty!” came with a roar. “Very well. Hang the ruffians if you feel like it!” She leaped down from her van-; tage point and. without a word, without a glance behind her, set out ‘along the Dyea trail. CHAPTER V “Looked kind of salty for a spelt, didn't it?” The-gvisaled leader o! the posse, he who had effected the capture of the thieves, was speaking to Pierce. “Well, I'm’ due for & private apology. hope you cher- ish no hard feelings. he” eee woman showed up, Who: Phillips shook his head. In his turn he inquired, “What are you go- ing to do with the McCaskeys?” The elder man’s face hardened. “I don’t know. This talk about hangia’ makes me weary. ‘I'd hand ‘em; I'd kick a bar'l out from under either of ‘em. I’ve done ‘such things and I never had any bad dreams.” But it was plain that the senti- ment favoring such extreme punish- ment had changed, for a suggestion was made to flog the thieves and | send them out of the country. Thi: met with instance response. A mo- tion was put to administer forty lashes and it was carried with a whoop. Since the younger McCaskey ape j peared to be still somewhat dazed from the rough handling he had suf- fered, his brother was thrust for- ward, The latter was stripped ta the waist, his wrists were firmly bound, then trussed up to-one of the stout end-poles of the tent- frame which, skeleton-like, stood over the platform. This done, the committeg fell back. and the wielder of the whip stepped forward, The crowd had watched these grim proceedings intently; it be- came quite sitent now. The hour ‘was growing late, the day had been overeast, and a damp chill that searched the marrow was settling as the short afternoon drew to a close. The prisoner’s naked body showed very white beneath his shock of coal-black hair; his flesh seemed tender and the onlookers stared at it in fascination. Joe McCaskey was a man of nerve; he held himself erect; there was defiance in the gaze which he leveled at the faces below. him. But his. brother Jim was not made of such stern stuff—he was the meaner, the more‘cowardly of the pair—and these methodical preparations, the: certainty of his own: forthcoming ordeal, bred in him a. desperate panic. The sight of his brother's flesh bared to the: bite of the lash brought home to him the horrifying: significance of: flogging, and ‘hen, fas if to emphasize that significance, the executioner gave his cat-o’-nine-. |. tails a practice swing. : As the lashes hissed sircaee the air the-victim-at the post: stiffened rigidly, ‘but’ hie, brother; : outside. the: i ,writhed in his tracks.and uttered a- faint. moan. fiting, by the. inat- tention. of his captors,- Jim -McCas- one strength and sith an effort born of desperation wrenched himself free.

STEWART NEA Service Writer Washington—Boosters for a “great- er Washington”—1,000,000 popula- tion is their present bullseye—may mean well, but personally I’m out of sympathy with them, Washington, the boosters say, is one of the nicest—perhaps the very nicest—of all the towns in the coun- try to live in. Well, so it is, and one of the nicest \things about it is that it isn’t too beastly big. It’s grown to beat a full house in recent years, but even s a good many of the ics of a smallish burg— conveniences of a big city ;minu: lot of the drawbacks. | Up to date the capital ha: —not quite so much of it as | began to grow so fast, but co character lal the quality jider- | CROSSWORD PUZZLE | Do you Smo oor Ti TLE MIAN!

The boosters are prepared to sacrifice more and more of it in the interests of quantity, Washington's many trees.and nu- Merous pretty little parks, sq and circles are among its chiet tractions. Already the “greater city” boosters have them marked for destruction, Indeed, they actually have begun on | the trees. The streets, though they; average pretty wide, aren’t wide enough for the increasing popula- tion’s automobiles. So, here and there, the boosters are widening them. This means the trees have to come down. Several streets have been spoiled thus and a campaign is on to spoil more, wholesale. The little squares and circles are in demand to park cars in. Old tim- ers are fighting it, but a few old jtimers don’t stand much chance in the long run against a gang of up- to-date, energetic boosters, Old original Washington has a style of its own. It looks like Wasb- ington and no other place. 1 Architecturally it’s natural and jpieturesque. For cold blooded utility jit may not stack up with the newer! |sections, but it pleases the eye. j These newer sections— hoost- ers’ work—are built according to booster tastes. They're standardized. ‘They're exactly like the very newest part of any other town. | Inside, the houses are strong on jmodern conveni ~—they’re handy to live in and no mistake—but ex- ternally they’re deadly monotonous. | Internally, too. | Ugly, likewise—all cheap er- bread and fresh paint and efficiency and about as much individuality as a flivver. You don’t have to come to Wash- ington to learn how the newer part of it looks. Just take a walk i apartment house und duplex district of your own home town, That's what | it's like. The boosters want to remodel the entire place on the same . pattern. “Rookeries” they call the older build- ings. They yearn to tear ’em down, Tam not altogether sure the “great- er Washington” boosters even mean well. I suspect their whole idea is to work up a real estate boom und cash in on the results. And just because I like the capital T hope they don’t succeed, but I think they will. If you plan to visit the city, with any view to seeing it as Major PEnfant laid it out, you'd better come soon, What the fire and earth- quake did to San Francisco wasn’t a circumstance to what the 1,000,000 por dlation hoosters will-do to Warh- ington if they have their way. <> | !
