SEANNE BOWMAN SYNOPSIS: Judith Dale, fight- dam left her tor the purpose, finds her husband, Norman, aligned against her and with the Bevins heirs, who are trying to break the will, Sad- he knowledge that Nor- man is 8 too much of Mathile Bevins. Judith flies to Mexico for a night at @ native cafe with, Slim Sanford and Justin Cunard. There she sees one of the Bevine spies. 4. C. Scathborne. Chepter 32 NEW TRICK “QLIM,” Judith leaned across the table, “help me out of here pronto, before that couple there, the | girl in red dancing with the gringo, gets back.” Sanford asked no questions. Quickly, his height shielding her, he helped her through the crowds, through the maze of tables where slightly ribald couples from the States sang an anglicized version of “Celito Lindo.” Outside, protected from curious eyes by an ell of the building, she explained, ‘That man is Scathborne, one of Morton Lampere’s urder- cover men.” “Do yau think he saw you?” Slim asked. © “No, I'm sure he didn’t. He wouldn’t have risked my seeing him if he had seen and recognized me. What I’m wondering is what he’s doing in this part of the country. Slim, how far are we frcm Laredo?” “Not far. This is a logical place for a man in your section of Texas to come, if that’s what you mean.” “It is. We'd better find Cunard and leave. I'll wait here while you go in... and Slim,” she held out a detaining hand, “I do appreciate what you've said. I've never thought of wavering in my loyalty ‘to Nor man, but,” she hesitated, then, “Tall Slim, it’s been +, most glamorous evening and I do like you a lot.” Sanford bent over the hand and brushed it with his lips in a manner that did not seem grotesque in him. A moment later he was gone. Cunard came back with him, nervous haste in his manner, but not until they were in the ship did he speak. “You must have thought me most unmannerly this evening,” he apol- ogized to Judith, “but I've Seen on the trail of something which may he important to us. Scathborne has been over here hiring Mexican Ia- bor. I talked to one of the men he hired. He said he was going to work on a dam northwest of Laredo. “Miss Judith, I believe we have “work cut ovt for us. £ think Mor- ton Lampere has started some- thing.” “Do you think Scathborne saw el- ther one of us?” “I'm sure he didn’t.

She sat protestingly erect. Lam- pere couldn't do that: eouldn’t build a dam there and intercept the flow of the river or divert it. There was such a thing as riparian rights. The ship had banked around, Straightened out, and they wore fly- ing due east. Half an hour later they had circled their own smal! field and had landed. “Miss Judith. can you take a cat nap, have breakfast and ‘e ready to take dictation at nineo’clock? Slim will rest ap and be ready to fly back with the ers and reports I have | ia mind.” Judith was sure she couldn't, but she didn’t admi. it. She was tired, ‘| was e Le ceived all when she reached the house, “Delphy,” whispered Judith dream- ily, “having you makes me a million- aire stenographer. Call me at eight forty-five.” Eight forty-five came much too soon, but Judith was refreshed by her rest and ready to tackle the problem before her with an alert mind. “I believe Lampere is behind this and doing it not for the purpose of building a dam, but of annoying us,” said she to Cunard. “With what little influence I have in Washington, Austin and’ other governmental way-points we can check him immediately,” confirmed Cunard, “Let them go out of San Antonio, Slim,” said Cunard later as ec him the barrrage of app governmental authorities. “I don't want to have eny word of what we're doing leak out to anyone of Lampere’s crowd.” With Cunard she went to the field when Slim took off, winging into the north, then, feeling queerly de pressed, returned to her house, the engineer walk’ng with her to the porch, “Queer young fellow,” he re marked, seating himself on the tiny porch and lighting a cigar; “had a chance to go with an expedition bound for some obscure point off Greenland and preferred - staying around Houston, .running errands fo. us. Of course, Miss Judith, he's invaluable to us, so we. won't pro- test.” “No, of course not,” agri dith and wondered if Cunard n the flush burn up into her cheeks: Ju- Ts evening mafl brought fresh consternation to Judith. She was ready to retire when the whistle of the incoming train made her hesi- tate. She chided herself for being as foolish as some love lorn girl who watched the advent of the mail car- 4 the climax of each day. Nor- man wouldn’t write again so soon. He'C find nothing to say. But the- messenger who delivered mail in the camp at Big‘Tom Town brought her a sheet of letters and along them one from Norman. Judith opened it without ,ooking at the others, her glance taking in the contents of the page before she had paused actually to read it. Dear Judith: 1 belleve 1 ex- plained, I'd put all of my savings into Hillendale, first for the prop- erty, and then the Initial cost of building, Uhate ike the dickens to give-it up, but under the circumstances find It too expensive for me to live there alone, i'm going to be away most of the summer so will have to dispose of it in some way and am writing to ask you if there is anything Jn it you would like to have. .. furniture, paintings, rugs, drapes or things of that nature. Also, what would you like to have me do with your clothes and per- sonal belongings. Mother would look after them but she scarcely has room fn ber little apartment and I'm not sure that it would be safe to leave them here. Clia tells me Slim is acting as a courier for your company. Isn't that a lowly position for an inter- national hero? Do you see much of him? I hope you are feeling wi cording to the letters Lige Secelving. you're getting along ax “well as cud be suspected” and I do feel much less anxiety about Four, yrhysieat well being with Iphy there looking after you. 1 certainly miss you, Judith, you'll never know what these past few weeks have done to me. Let me hear from you as soon as convenient. Love, NORMAN Judith dropped the letter. This the end. “Tog expensive to tive there alone.” Why should it be more expensive alone than -vith her? {t simply meant that he was ready te quit.

At least, and there was consola- tion in this thought, at ieast he wasn't keeping it for Mathile. She picked up the letter again. “Love.

And yet be said he felt less anxiety with Delpby there to look after her and showed a feminine carlosity about Slim.
