On the way Gloster saves the life of a stranger, Lee Halnes, from the murderous bands of a scoundrel by the name of Joe Macarthur, Gloster is jalled after getting into a fight with several men over a girl. Leo Halnes and John Barry, daughter of a famous rider of the old plains, assist Gloster to escape.

It was a mysterious \‘]mdgvpudg\: such as might have | been thrown together by a madman | with a glant's strength. | The tnterfor was as strange as the | exterfor. There was no chimney ex- cept an irregular hole which had been broken through the roof.

Aroqund a table, on other stones, sat four solemn men. Their faces and characters were so unusual that one might have skimmed all the villainy in the wild west without finding a more dangerous quartet, and justice should be done to each in turn. Foremost in avoirdupols was Babe ‘ooney, a swarthy skinned man so | smoothly shaven, always, that in | some lights his face seemed to have the texture and luster of youth. He was not more than thirty, perhaps, at the most, but the double batter- ing of years and a hard life had reduced him. The lines around his mouth and eyes would have done credit to his elder by twenty years.

But the other three showed no enthusiasm, “It's all worked out,” sald Mac- arthur, “I got an inside man on the job, He's cheap and safe, And that's what we want. All I need {s some men that can be depended on, And 1 figured it was worth while to give you all a split to show that my heart was in the, right place." The gloom of three of the men had spread to the ther two. Fatty and Lew were waiting to see, In | what direction the wind would blow. It was Dud Ralney who spoke, first arranging his glasses so that he i could fix his mild eyes more direct- | 1y upon Macarthur, “Joe,”” he sald, “the upshot of this is that you want to be back with us?"* “Of course.
