BEGIN HERE TODAY Claire Fosdick sets out to drive to the lonely mountain home left her by her eccentric unele, Lyman Fosdick. Claire is trying to decide whether to marry Nick Baum, fo whom she owes money, She alse hopes to find a valuable and mysterious jewel owned by her uncle and believed to be hidden in the house. Her ear is wrecked by a log across the road. Pat Magan, an old friend, and Bob Steele, young engineer, arrive on the scene and take Claire fo the mountain house where Eb Spratt and his simer, Susie, are the caretakers. Claire sees a curious arrow carved on the wall of an upstairs bedroom and, Jamp in hand, follows the arrow to the cupola. -A noiseless bullet shatters the lamp. Next morning Eb Spratt disappears. The men search the grounds but find ne trace of him. Hannah, Claire’s housekeeper, arrives and reports that a man is lying dead in the aspen grove. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER SIX ISREGARDING the rain which had become a steady downpour, the two men, Claire, Hannah and Susie all rushed to the aspen grove. They saw the figure lying there, just as Hannah had said. Pat ran forward with a little ery. “Bob! It's Bob!” Quickly he turned him over. When he looked up, Pat's own face was pale. “He's alive,” he said, “but that's about all.” “The first thing is to get him up to the house,” Dan Dallas announced in a matter-of-fact tone. “You take his feet, Magan, and we'll ease him up the hill.” The women fell in behind, and as they trudged along Hannah hastily sketched for Claire the happenings at home since her departure. “Nick Baum phoned and asked if you had come home yet. I said, ‘No.’ He asked did I know when you was comin’ and I said ‘no’again. He said he hoped you'd make it soon. I got to thinkin’ that over and kinder figured one more person might come in handy up here. That's why I come.” Susie glanced at her quickly. “What do you mean? You know about Eb?” “Don’t know nothin’,” answered Hannah coldly. ‘’Cept that I better be on the ground to look after Claire. What's the matter with Eb anyway?” tJ F 4 ” LAIRE told her about Eb’s mysterious disappearance. A grunt was Hannah's only reply. Then she added, “High time I was takin’ a hand in things ‘round here.” “Yes. Best thing you do, Han-nah-—take a hand in things.” Susie shot her a venomous glance. No love had ever been lost between the two women. That was why Claire seldom brought Hannah to the house in the mountains. Now she hastened to smooth things over. “Better' go on ahead, Susie, and get the north bedroom ready for Mr. Steele.” After the patient had -been made as comfortable as possible and Susie had gone back to the kitchen, Claire dispatched Dan Dallas for the doctor from the village.. Then she told Hannah of all the strange happenings at the House of Long Shadows. Pat hovered over his friend, anxiously watching for any change in his condition. “The Doc may know something ‘bout Eb being down at the town,” Hannah suggested. “Anyway it won't do no good to let the police come messin’ inter things, when there ain't a thing but a cap to show ‘em.”’
one by cone.”
“That's why Bob was going down to find out himself,” answered Pat. “Looks as though the opposition was engaged in picking off our men,
ANNAH snorted and squared her shoulders. “Dorit forget you got me now, Mister. I've looked across a knife at a ragin’ devil of an Injun, and I'm alive to tell it. Guess I can do something 'bout this what-ever-it-is, that’s kickin’ up a ruckus ’round here.” A faint smile touched Pat's lips. “I'm betting you can do iu that,” he told her. The shower was over now, and after what seemed an interminable wait, the doctor came, followed by Dallas. The man of medicine was a fat little person with a cheery, red face, and an unpronounceable name. Immediately he took off his coat and went to work. Expertly the doctor's gentle fingers moved over Bob's prostrate form to the accompaniment of little clucks of sympathy. At last he straightened
up. “A bad rap on the head, that’s all. Oh, yes, young man, he'll pull through okay. Don't look so downcast.” He addressed Pat. Diving suddenly into his bag, he handed out a bottle. “Here. take a swig of this. You look as though you needeC it.” Pat but obeyed. “I suppose he fell and hit his head on a boulder or something,” the doctor went on. “Lucky you came on him when you did.”
= # 8
HEN the doctor was ready to leave Claire asked the question that was uppermost in everybody’s mind. “Have you seen Eb in the village today, Doctor?” “No, not for almost a month now,” he answered. “The village church is closed for the summer, you know, so Eb hasn't been coming down. He always drops into the drug store when he does show up, and, since I'm apt to be there, I'm almost sure to run into him. I went down there early this a. m. to wait for some stuff I'd sent for, so I would have been certain fo see him. Why?"
‘We were just looking for him, that’s all, Doc,” replied Pat. “That's how we happened to discover that Bob’d been hurt.” . “Well, keep the patient absolutely quiet, and I'll come out tomorrow to see how he is.” The doctor shook hands with Claire. “And don’t worry,” was his final admonition as he breezed out the door.
“Hum, easier said than done,” mumbled Hannah grimly. Pat followed the doctor downstairs. After the ancient car had chugged off down the winding road he walked down toward Dan Dallas’ cabin intending to demand the gun. The bullet that Bob had dug out of the cupola wall was now in Pat's pocket, and he was going to find out if it fitted the rifle. If it did, he would have a showdown with Dan at once. He felt sure that Dallas knew more than he was telling.

UT Pat did not reach the gabin. As he made his way around the edge of the aspen grove, he saw something moving up the winding trail on Squaw Mountain. He stopped and watched. A man in white was plainly visible, weaving his way in and out along the curving loops of the path. For a minute Susie's fantastic story of the

white miner rushed back to Pat's “Applesauce!” He said it aloud. Then he started off at a brisk run to follow. If there really was sa white apparition he would soon know it. The steepness of the trail slowed. down his impetuous pace to a steady effort. He had time to review again the events since the evening before. The old house, crouching Sphinxlike in the shadow of the huge twin-topped pine. Murderous shots in the dark. Eb gone—and now Be lying seriously injured. Things like that just didn’t happen, not in this unromantic day. Pat had come quite a way. Those trees that had towered above him | ance a few minutes ago now were spindling tops. He looked across at the Fosdick house, thinking that the arrow mark in Lyman Fosdick’s bedroom certainly pointed in this direction, too. Could it have meant, after all, something as far distant as Squaw Mountain. ‘A gleam of white ahead made him bend his shoulders and once more take up the rocky trail. He began to save his breath and energy, stopping at brief intervals, then trudging on again. Wha else the man in white might be, he was sure a bang-up mountain climber, Pat decided, after several more loops of the trail, in which he did not seem. to be gaining on his quarry. What if, after all, he was following some image of his own imagination, inflamed, perhaps by lack of sleep and anxiety over Bob? He shook the idea from his mind and peered ahead. Yes, there was no doubt about a distinct white figure crossing a shale drift at this very minute. “No spook ever had to be that cautious,” Pat told himsel, and started on again.
AIRPLANES, CATTLE “NOT 600D COMPANY
Columbus Pilot Learns Not to J-and Ship.
Times Special COLUMBUS, Ind. July 8—Airplanes and cattle just won’t graze in the same pasture. But if there's a linen tablecloth handy, differences may be patched up. That is the discovery of Pilot Floyd Simmen. On a flight to Culver he landed at the airport, and leaving his plane for the night, went: into the city. He returned to find that cattle grazing in the field had kicked and chewed the wings, badly damaging the ailerons. Irate, the pilot stamped back into] town, bought a linen table cloth and repaired the damage. Back home here a day late, tablecloth and all, he made a three point landing at the Columbus airport.
