They entered the main room and Dudley stood flashing his light all •round the walls. “Pretty nice place lor a cave man,” he said finally. Tho cave was about as it had been when Dona had first seen it. The cooking things were lying in a neat row beside the fireplace and the blankets still were on the bed. Dona imagined them to be Just as she had tossed them back on the morning when she had awakened *ys Stan Ball’s prisoner. Dudley began poking around the floor and walls. Dona crossed to the stone bunk and sat down. For a little while her eyes followed the circle of light from the flashlight. Then she gave herself up to a queer feeling of desolation. The place seemed to breathe the presence of Stan .JBall. Dona wished she had not come. All the old longing with its wild and gusty flurries of emotion swelled up in her heart. Dudley was examining the ground carefully. He straightened suddenly and called to her. “Here Is where Swergin stood when he got the drop on Ball.” “Right there.” Dona agreed absently. “His hobnails‘cut right into the floor of the cave,” Dudley went on. His flashlight continued to bob •long and halted before the fireplace. Dona ceased to watch, losing herself in her own thoughts. Suddenly Dudley whistled loudly. Dona started and looked across to where he was poking in the fireplace. “Live coals'” he almost shouted. “I know that fellow still was hanging around these hills.” Dona sprang up and crossed to his side. Dudley snapped of! the flashlight and a half dozen live coals glowed brightly. A su< den icy grip tightened at the girl s heart and she could not take her eyes from the ruddy embers gleaming in the ashes. CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN DUDLEY hurried Dona from the cave. He was convinced that Ball still was using his hiding place and he suddenly wanted to be away before the cowboy returned. Dudley had not missed any of the tales told around camp regarding the prowess ancf temper of the killer. Dona rode silently. She let Dudley lead the way down the ridge to the Pass Creek trail. A turmoil of doubt and fear was tugging at her heart. She was afraid of what was to come. Had Stan Ball's promises to her been just a fine flourish, a touch that he had added because it suited

his reckless nature? Was he still bent on breaking up the work at Three Rivers? Swergin yet might prove to be right. H£r mind went back over the pest few days of adventure. She remembered the little Spanish girl and the one glove. She went over the terrible scene in the little meadow when her father had been shot. Step by step she placed the evidence against the man she had aided, then she added the fact that he voluntarily had admitted committing all the crimes. Dona shuddered and gave the roan a Jerk. She was a little fool—there seemed no way to avoid admitting it. The roan halted suddenly behind Dudley’s horse. Dona came out of her moody trance and looked around. They were not on the Pass Creek trail. Tall granite walls frowned down on them and uncut timber towered above. “I seem to have taken the wrong trail,” Dudley called back with an irritated grin. “I let this dumb horse do all the picking and he rirust be lost.” Dona smiled in spite of herself. Dudley had been riding on Folly Mountain every day for ten days, and now he had lost a plain trail. “I’ll take, you out,” she smiled. “The roan is not such a dummy as your horse.”

THEY TELL ME'JW'

Rewards

FT. WAYNE, Ind., Oct. 26.—Just as a orave and faithful soldier is given a piece of metal to wear with the words “For Valor” engraved upon it, so does Senator James E. Watson reward tHe faithful and successful performance of unsavory jobs. But the reward which Jim gives is much more tangible than medals—that is, when he doesn’t award the double-cross. In the case of James I. Barnes of Logansport, the reward has been juicy postoffice contracts. But here in the Fourth district this recognition takes thd form of bank receiverships, and by actual count John Owen of Noblesville (sometimes known as “Floorwax Johnny,” but that’s another column) has received the lion’s share of receiverships. And that isn’t helping Jim’s campaign a bit among the depositors of the defunct institutions —or do you know Johnny? Here in Ft. Wayne Jim propitiated an enemy—Arthur F. Hall, president of the Lincoln Life Company—by having him appointed to the board of the Indianapolis Home Loan bank, of which he is chairman. a a a But it is going to be a great deal more difficult to square himself with the thousands of depositors in the institutions over which Owen is the guardian angel. To give you a little more background about John, you, no doubt, recall that he is the man, who after finding out from his “close friend,” M. Bert Thurman, jusfr what delegations were pledged to his campaign for the Republican Governor nomination, a few days later brought out Raymond Springer for the honor. And Springer was nominated through the help of this information, they tell me. a a a Maybe that will indicate why the depositors of the defunct First National bank of Columbia City feel that they are just “political pawns,”

SHE headed at once for a high point that overlooked the surrounding slope. Dudley following her willingly. From the high vantage point they could see into the valley at their feet. Dona sat in her saddle and made a careful check of what lay below them. She suddenly ceased to be Interested in the lost trail. Undoubtedly they were looking into Pass Creek valley, but what Interested her was what she saw far down In the canyon. A road wound out from the foot of the mountain, anew road. While they watched, two trucks loaded with lumber slid down the loop of road they could see. “Know where we are?” Dudley asked Impatiently. “That is Pass Creek below.” Dona pointed with her quirt. “Let’s get out of here and back to camp.” Dudley was very evidently in a hurry to get on a familiar trail again. “Don’t worry. I can take you right out,” Dona answered absently. She was intensely interested in the scene below. “We better move on,” said Dudley, who was not interested in new roads. He wanted to get into camp and clean up. Dona sensed a mystery; something told her that down in that

used to .reward Owen, who is receiver of that bank. Or why the depositors in the Lagrange National bank, of which John also is receiver, feel the same way? This was the institution operated by Clyde Walb, former G. O. P. chairman, who served a sentence in the federal penitentiary for his peculiar banking methods. Or why the debitors of the defunct national bank in Connersville also aren’t too favorably disposed toward Watson? Incidentally, if the records are correct, Springer acted as attorney for John Owen in this last receivership. It must be great to be close to Senator Jim. If the reward is not a postoffice contract it’s a receivership. Who wants a medal? TT'BCDK ADAS BY BRUCE CAJTQN THE Cinderella story, according to no less an authority than James Branch Cabell, Is the basis of the most romantic yarns in existence; and if that is the case, then “Life and Lillian Gish,” by Albert Bigelow Paine, is as fine a romance as you would care to read. For it is the Cinderella story from start to finish. Lillian Gish had a pathetically hard childhood. She went on the stage at the age of 6, or thereabouts, with a down-at-the-heels company doing one-night stands, and her girlhood was a time of very hard work and very little fun. For many years she had no playmates at all. Her schooling was sketchy. She was a bread-winner at a time when most girls are wearing rompers and learning to play hop-scotch. But Cinderella came up from nowhere to become a princess, and so did Miss Gish. In her early ’teens she got into the movies, back in the days when the movies were supposed to be beneath contempt; and presently she was one of the world’s most famous women, rich, popular and idolized. Mr. Paine makes his story about ten times as interesting as I expected it to be. Evidently he is one of that vast army of males who are permanently in love with Lillian Gifch; but that’s all right because—well, aren’t we all? He presents her as a supremely great actress, the greatest the films have produced; he also knows her as a very real human being and as an exceedingly glamorous woman. And his book is a good sidelight on the development of the movies as well. Published by the Macmillan Company, "Life and Lillian Gish” sells for $3.50.

valley lay the solution to the whole trouble on Folly mountain. She was sure her father did not know about the operations on the far side of the ridge. "Let’s nde down to where those men are working,” she said, smiling. Dudley looked down into the canyon and frown :d. “No sense in hiking clear down there if you know where the trail is,” he said. “It would take us hours to climb out again.” Dona realized that Dudley was right. With Dudley along, there would be little use in riding down into the canyon. He was still a novice and very much of a tenderfoot. His freedom of movement while Ball was active must have been allowed by the cowboy. Likely, Stan Ball figured him harmless. Dona was beginning to suspect that

“YOU helped to torture and. kill Wasimbu, and my Wazlri,” he accused, Ids voice low but terrifying. The black trembled, his knees giving beneaft him. “He ordered us to do it,” he pleaded.

Dudley never had gotten far off marked trails. • a SHE headed the roan back along the mountain and soon they struck the Pass Creeks trail where jt crossed the divide and dropped down into the valley they had been examining. Dudley had taken the wrong direction upon coming down from the cave. is the trail we came up over,” Dudley called to her. There was relief and eagerness in his voice. Dona smiled back at him and set the roan at a slow trot. She had many things on her mind, while Dudley was only concerned in getting back to camp and taking a bath after a hard ride. Dudley finally pulled up beside her and began to set the pace. He cantered on ahead and left' her to

trail in at his heels. Dona was willing to do this, as she wanted time to lay a few plans herself. She intended to find out about the work in Pass Creek. The question to be decided was whether she should demand an explanation from Swergin or make an investigation first. Dona rode up to the corral and slid from her horse. Malloy was there to take the roan, but she did nto see Dudley. Very likely, thought she. he was under a shower already. “Asper was sitting out on the porch when she ran up the steps. Dudley was standing beside him. “You’re slow,” Dudley greeted her. He had lingered a moment for a word before changing clothes. Asper frowned at his son-in-law. He could not see anything favorable in such acttbns as Dudley displayed.

Asper’s expression suddenly changed; he seemed to want to shift the conversation. “So you rode a long way,” he continued. “Better stay out of the Pass Creek district.
