MALLOY gazed in the direction of the firing for a full minute, then he turned to face Dona. “No, I won't saddle up for you.” His mouth was tight and his eyes glowed evenly. "Then I’ll saddle him myself,' Dona slid from the top pole. "And I won't let you do that,” Malloy spoke grimly. "Why?” the girl snapped out the Dne word. "There ain’t r.o place upon that mountain for a girl tonight,” Malloy replied simply. “But, I’m going to see that Ball Is captured," Dona spoke firmly. "He'll likely be killed,” Malloy’s jyoise had sunk to a hard drawl. “Sworgin will bring him in; he’s p. deputy sheriff.” Something in the lank cowboy’s words put Dona pn the defensive. “Swergin always pack a rope,” IMalloy drawled. "You seem to think It funny to talk half-sense. Saddle my horse! I'm going with those men.” Dona Stamped her little foot. "Sorry, Ma'am but I won’t let you ride out tonight.” Malloy placed his lank form in' front of her ns he spoke. Dona tried to pass him, but he pushed her back. "If I have to do It, I can pack you up the hill!” he Warned. Realizing that he meant, just what he said Dona gave in. But she did not return to her room. Malloy seemed disturbed by this and sat watching her grimly. From up the slope came the thunder of hoofs. A group of the riders were returning. They were crowded close together and traveling at a trot. Mally slid from the fence. "You run on to bed,” he ordered gruffly. His .voice was anxious in spite of its drawl. Dona realized that he was trying to get her away before the men arrived. She was determined to stay to see what had happened. "You can't tell me what to do,” she flared and stepped back from the open gate. Malloy shrugged his shoulders And stood waiting. The men trotted up and as they came it was plain that the form of a man was lying limply across the saddle of the foremost ricier. CHAPTER NINETEEN THE horsemen halted before Malloy, who stepped forward. His Vtoice was hard. "Get him?” he demanded. "No. He shot Smoot.” The rider who hold the limp figure before him slid to the ground and pulled his burden from the saddle. Malloy bent over tire prostrate man while Dona edged closer. "The rest of the boys are hot on him and will get him,” the man added. He knelt and watched Malloy’s fingers exploring for the wound. “Is he dead?” he asked.

Malloy shook his head. “Nicked,” he grunted. Finally he straightened. “You said Ball shot him?” "Sure, slugged him from beside the trail.” Dona felt a tightening at her throat as the man stirred and groaned. She felt a little sick, too. as she watched Malloy wipe red stains from his hands with a bandana handkerchief. The tall cowboy grunted. "Ball never shot this man. He's plugged with a rifle bullet. Soft nosed.” Malloy lifted the man’s head as he spoke. “'Sure, Ball plugged him,” the rider snapped. "We seen it.” “You lie like a coyote, but get him over to the Doc and have him fixed up.” Malloy slipped his arms under the wounded man's shoulders as he spoke. Dona slipped away and ran toward the main building. Ball was dangerous. That was plain. He was a real killer, and no mistake about it. What disturbed her was the way Malloy stood up for him. She would have to see Swergin and have Malloy fired. It was like having a traitor in camp. Dona slipped into her own room and locked the door, but first she made sure her father was sleeping. Then she lay thinking for an hour, although she was tired. Fnally she fell into a troubled sleep. U n U SHE was awakened by someone pounding on her door. Sleepily she called out,” Come!” Then she remembered that she had locked the door. Slipping a silk gotvp around her, Dona poked her feet into dressing slippers and unfastened the catch. Dudley’s head appeared around the door. "Can you let a poor husband in?” he demanded with a grin. All trace of sulkiness -was gone from his face. “You know I can’t,” Dona answered in an exasperated voice. “It would look a bit more natural,” Dudley insisted. “Folks will

‘Break’ for the G. 0. P.? IN the 1928 campaign, Harry G. Leslie, then Republican Governor nominee, grew very irate because one of his convention opponents, Frederick Landis, didn’t take of! his coat and pitch in to help his candidacy. He accused Landis of not being a | true Republican, and since then has : attacked the Logansport editor re- ! peatedly. In fact, every Republican who didn’t, rush to Leslie’s aid was and | has been blacklisted. In 1930, when the G. O. P. ticket was fighting an uphill battle, Les- ! lie, now Governor, made less than half a dozen speeches. In the 1932 campaign, now under way, Leslie has made but one campaign appearance. That was at the ! Lake Winona rally, and he sat by complacently while the record of his administration was praised. While other Republican office holders have been out sounding the welkin, Leslie has been vacationing at the state’s cottage on Lake Michigan, apparently little disturbed by the cries for help from' state headquarters. tt a u If Leslie were the candidate this year, he would be blueing the air

expect me to come out of this room in the morning.” Suddenly Dona realized that it was early. The clock on her dresser said 6. Dudley put a on the door, but Dona held it tight. “I need your help, lady!” he went on. “I want to get properly dressed up for the first day of married life.” Dona noticed that her father’s door was open across the hall. “You opened it?” she asked accusingly. Dudley grinned. “I just looked in and forgot to close It. Your dad Is likely to be waking up any minute now.” Dona pushed him back and closed the door. “I’ll be djessed in a minute. Then you can come in,” she called. Dudley moved down the hall to his room and Dona dressed hurriedly. She would have to make a decision, that was certain. If her father was well enough to be left alone, she would have to go with Dudley to find Sam Dean. It was plain that Asper Delo would become suspicious if Dudley kept up his actions, and it would not do to have him discover the trick she had played. He was beginning to mend again and if he let himself become angered and excited he might have a relapse. nun DUDLEY was in the hall waiting for her. He was cool in his greeting and did not speak as they crossed to the mess hall for breakfast. He ate In silence, for which Dona was thankful as she was trying to decide what to do. After breakfast they strollgd outside and Dudley faced her. “Do we go for a ride in the car?” he asked. “Want to?” Dona hedged. “What do you say?” “I’ll go.” Dona made the plunge wildly. “This afternoon?” Dona nodded. She could not trust her voice. “I want to get in another half day’s riding.” Dudley spoke like a

with profanity, “cussin-out,” in his inimitable manner, the incumbent Governor for being lax in his partisan activity. But now the shoe is on the other foot.. So, tired of waiting for Leslie to tell the placeholders at the statehouse to get out and do a little scratching for the ticket, Appellate Judge Noel C. Neal, candidate for re-election, called the employes together at a meeting the other night and told them, in as few words as possible, - that if they wanted to eat next year, they would better go to work in the campaign. Or, as they tell me, Tom Barr, deputy banking commissioner and veteran politician, put it in phrases crude but strong: “You people will find out if the Democrats are elected you will be sitting out on the sidewalks eating damp snowballs.” The G. O. P. jobholders were a trifle perturbed. They had thought that after paying their assessments to the party their duties were ended. Instead, they now must go out in the precincts and hustle for the ticket. That is the fault of the spoils system, of course. There was some comment regarding the absence of the titular head of the party, Governor Leslie. But, as one man put it: “We’ll get more votes if Leslie continues vacationing than if he takes to the stump. His oratorical powers are just about as effective as his governing ability.” Which, thinks the scowling lieutenant, is a very, very dirty dig, because Leslie has learned to read a speech.

spoiled child. He was hurt and plainly felt abused. Dona almost burst out laughing. In spite of the fact that she was grateful for the delay. Dudley caught the gleam of laughter in her eyes and scowled. “What's so funny?” he demanded. "Nothing, dear, only you look so awfully mad.” Dona patted his hand. Mollified, Dudley took her arm and they, walked slowly back to the main building. Asper was sitting up in bed eating broth and toast. “Top of the morning!" he greeted them, “Feeling lots better, aren’t you, Dad?” Dona said eagerly. Asper scowled at the broth. “If I don’t get some real he-man food pretty soon, I'll waste away.” Dona laughed and patted his arm. “Sick folks can’t have short cuts for breakfast,” she chided him.

At last the surgeon entered the room. Their eyes asked him the question that their lips dared not voice. “I can not tell you anything as yet,” he announced, “other than that the operation was a success. What the results will be only time will tell.”

“A cut of steak- is what- every man should have for breakfast,” Asper growled. He looked up at Dudley and his scowl vanished. "How are you this morning, son?” “I had a good sleep,” Dudley assured him without a smile. “Fine way to have you kids tied up on your honeymoon,” Asper rumbled. “Don’t you worry about us,” Dona cut in hastily. “No, Just forget our honeymoon and get patched up so we can take a real one.” Dudley's grin came through. “I’ll be with you this morning,” Dona said, patting her father’s pillow up against his back as she spoke. “No. You kids run along together.” Asper shoved back the empty broth bowl.

"Dud is riding out on a scouting tour,”. Dona explained. Asper grunted and straightened. “Young man, you'd better stav in camp with your wife. This family doesn’t need any widows.” m a DUDLEY met Asper's eveslevellv. “I'm riding, sir,” he said. “I have a theory worked out and I want to test it. This afternoon Dona and I will go for a car ride to make up for my running off." Asper grunted but it was plain that Dudley's attitude pleased him. Dudley turned to Dona and smilingly claimed a kiss. She flushed as she gave it. Dudley certainly believed in taking every advantage he could of circumstances. Swergin appeared just then in the doorway. He scow led at Dudley and Dona.

“I have given orders,” said the surgeon, “that no one is to egter the room, other than the nurses, for ten days. They are instructed not to speak to hin or allow him to speak. I assure you that your husband has every chance for complete recovery.” , . ,

"Come in and meet the newlyweds!” Asper called. Swergin glared at the blusping couple, but did not offer eongfitulations. He faced Asper. “Jest came up to report that another nan w r as shot last night.” It was plainly with an effort that Asper Delo kept from bursting out angrily. Dona moved to her father's side and faced Swergin. “The man was not seriously wounded. Dad. I was down at the corrals when they brought him it." Swergin gave Dcna a level look which she returned with flashing eyes. It was ..plain Swergin did not care much fpr Asper's nervous condition. 0 ‘We'll h#ve Ball in pretty soon now.” Swergin growled. “You ihissed a good chance last night/* Dona could not refrairi from rubbing it into the big timber

This time Swergin shot an inquiring gaze at the girl. She met his eyes smilingly and, with a frown, he turned to leave. “I’ll be back by noon," Dudley called from the door. “If you don't stay in camp, you’ll be hauled back!” Swergin threatened. Dudley smiled broadly. He was wondering if this was really to be his lucky day. Had he known what sundown would bring. Dudley Winters might not have been able to muster that smile.
