The Settling of the Sage By HAL G. EVARTS | Copyright by Hal G. Evarts -?■ WNU Service

WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE At the Warien ranch, the “Three Bas," a stranger applied for work as a ridet. Williamelte Ann Warren—known tc all as •Billie." >s the owner of the ranch. The girl’s father. CaT Warren, had been the origU nal owner. The newcomer is pul to work Cattle "rustlers’’ have, been troubling the ranch owners: i’he new hand gives his name as Cal Harris By his announce-' nent in favor of "squatters" he incurs the enmity of a ride’ known as Morrow The will made by Cal Warren stipulated that half the property should go to the son of his old friend. William Harris, under certain conditions rhe new arrival is the man. and he discloses the fact to Billie Slade, a ranchman with an unsavorv reputation, visits Billie Slade, endeavoring to embrace Billie is interrupted bv Harris While the riders are at their evening meal, far out on the range, six outsiders join them Billie knows them to be "rustlers” To test Harris' courage the girl ippoints him temporary foreman. suggesting that he order the visitors to leave. Somewhat to her surprise he does so. The men depart, making threats. Billie makes Harris permanent foreman. Catching Morrow leaving cattle were they can be stolen Harris discharges him. Riding with Billie, a man presumably Morrow, shoots at Harris Three Bar riders start in pursuit of Morrow One of them. Bangs, is ambushed and killed

CHAPTER V—Continued —lo——old man was gloomy and silent his face set In sorrowful lines as he went about his work, and if was evi dent that he was continually brood ing over the fate of the youth he bad loved. Billie could not shake off the re tnembrance of the boy’s adoring gaze as his eyes had followed every move she made and in some vague way she felt that she was responsible for the accident She often rode near Ttile Koster, knowing* what was in his mind. He spoke but little and in common with the rest, he never once mentioned Bangs. At the end of a week Slade rode up to the wagon as the men were working the rows gathered in the see ond circle of the day. He jerked bis head to draw her aside out of range of Waddles' ears. “How’s the Three Bar showing up this spring?" he asked abruptly. “Better than ever.” she retorted and he caught a note of defiance tn her voice. ‘You’re lying, Billie," he asserted calmly. “The Three Bar- will show another shrinkage this, year.” “How do you know?’ 'she dashed; and the distrust of him that Harris had roused in her. lately submerged beneath the troubling “ thoughts 'of Bangs, was suddenly quickened and thrown uppermost in het mind. "1 know.” he asserted “It’s my business to know everything that goes on anywhere near my range. You Say you want to run the Three Bar tu anti yourself. There’s not a man in this country that would touch a Three Bar cow if you was hooked ur with me.” ‘And then the Three Bar would be only one out of a dozen or more Slade brands.” she said. Ear m. reason at all she was and denly convinced of the truth of Harris sus|#bions concerning Slade She noted t liar’his eyes traveled from on.® man to the next till he had scru tinized every one that worked the herd. •Are you looking for Morrow?” she demanded, and instantly regretted tier remark. Slade’s face did not change by so much as the bat of an eye and he failed to reply for a space—too long a space,, she reflected—thee turned to her. “Morrow- who’s he?’’ he asked “And why should I Idok for him?” "He rode for you last year.” she said. •<>h‘ That fellow. 1 recall him now Bleak-looking citizen.” he said "And what about him?” ~ "You tell me.” she countered. “That new foreman of yours—the fellow that was scouting round alone for a few months—has been talking with his mouth," Slade said “If he keeps that up I’ll have to ask him to speak right out what’s on hiss mind ’’ “He’ll tell you." she prophesied. ••What then?” "Then l-H kill him," the man stated The girl motioned to Lanky Evans and he rode across to them. "Lanky, I want you to remembet this ' she said. “Slade has just prom pmd to kill Harris. And if he does I'll spend every dollar I own seeing 4b.it he's hung for it.” she turned to Slade. "You might repeat what you jii-t i old me. she suggested. Slade looked at her steadily. “Y<m misunderstood me,” he stated “I don't recall any remark to that es feet or even to mentioning the namt of Harris. ty’ho is he. anyhow?” Evans slouched easily tn the saddle and twisted a smoke. “Now let’s get this straight what I'm to remember." he said. "Mr. Slade was saying that he planned to down Cal Harris the first time he caught him oil' alone. I heard him remark |o that effect.” He turned and gqinned Cheerfully at Slade. “That's, h|j} very ■ words sWetTr t% it as lona as Biy breath..leld out. I’ll sort of re'peat ft c.ei pvdiyself so that I can give It b tm -lm'-’e wrrd for Word when the *’ • ’ J

Slade favored him with a lona stare which Lanky bore with unconcern smiling hack at him pleasantly. “I’ve got my little piece memorized,” Evans said; "and in parting let me remark that (’al Harris will prove a new sort of a victim for you to work on. If yon tie into him he’ll tear down your meat-house ” He turned his horse and rode back to the herd. “I’ll play your own game." the girl told Slade. “If anything happens to another man who is ridipg for me snd I have any reason to even suspect vou were at the bottom of it I’ll swear that I saw you do the thing yourself The Three Bar is the only outfit with a clean enough record to drag any thing up tor an airing before rhe courts without taking a chance. Tnis rule of every' man for himself won’t bold good with me.” She moved toward the wagon and Slade kept pace with her. leading his horse “You’re a real woman. Billie.” he said. “Yon better throw in with a Harris Sat on a Rock and Reviewed the Plans He Had Formulated real man—me —and we'll own this country. I’ll run the Three Bar on ten thousand head whenever you say the word.” “I’d rather see it on half as rm.ny through my own efforts,” she said “And some day I will ’ “Some day you'll see it my way." he prophesied. ”1 know .you bettei than any oilier man You want an out tit ot your own—ami if the Three Kai gets crowded out you’ll go to the man that can give you one in its plate That will be me. Some day we’ll trade.” “Some day —right soon—you'll trade your present holdings for a nice little range in hell,” a voice said in Slade’s ear and at tlie same instant two huge [laws were thrust from the little win dow of the cook-wagon and clamped on his arms above the crook of his el hows. Slade was a powerful man but be was an infant in the grip of the two great bands that raised him clear of the ground and shook him before he was slammed down on his face ten feet away by a straight-arm thrust His deadly temper Hared and the swift move for his gun was simultaneous with the twist which brought him to his feet, but his hand fell away from the butt ot it as he looked into the twin nluzzles ot a sawed-off shotgun which menaced him from the win dow. Tne face behind the gun was the face ot Waddles. “I’m aboui to much oft a pound ot shot if you go acting up.” Waddles said. “Any more talk like you was just handing out and you’ll get smeared here and there.” “Are you running the Three Bar?’ Slade asked. “Only at times, when the notion strikes me.” Waddles said. "And this is one. Whenever youWe got any specific business to transact with us whv come right along over and transact it —and then move on out.” Billie Warren laughed suddenly a gurgle of sheer amusement at the sight of the most dreaded man within a hundred miles standing there undei

“Ancient Mariner” Had Counterpart in Life

Many of the literary classics which tlie world accepts ns fiction are based ou solid fact. A striking example is brought out in the Gohlen Book, which tells how Coleridge came to write his immortal “Rime of the Ancient Mariner." The poem was inspired by George Shelvocke, a shipmaster who spent three years in a voyage around the world, from 1719 to 1722. Returning to England, he wrote an account of the trip, telling how tlie ship hud been becalmed for many days near Cape Horn. The one sign of life was a black albatross, which hovered over the vessel, until the second officer. Hatley, taking it for an ill omen, shot 14 down. There followed six miserable weeks, in which the ship was in constant peril, before the coast of Chile was sighted. It was in 1797 that Coleridge’s friend. William Wordsworth, suggested to tlie poet that he make Sliel

Pure Anglo-Saxon Stock Ellen Churchill Semple in the tin of the American Geographic society says in regard to the inhabitants of the mountainous regions of south eastern Kentucky that they are the purest Anglo-Saxon stock in the United States. There is practically no intermixture. They are direct descendants of the early Virginia and North Carolina immigrants. The stock is chiefly English and Scotch-Irish, which is largely Teutonic in origin There is scarcely a trace of foreign admixture. Occasionally there is a Erenc* name which points to a strain of Hdgucnot blood from aver tne mountains in North Carolina, ano names of Germans who came down from the Pennsylvania butch settlements.

the muzzle of a shotgun. reviving th structions frdm the mouth of rhe Three Bar cook. For Slade was help less and knew it “Waddles, you win,” he said. ’TH be going before you change your mind.” * As the man walked toward Ids ho'rse which bac sidled a few steps away the big cook gazed after him and fingered the riot gun regretfully The wagon did not move on wten the men had finished working rhe herd, as the rest of the day had been set aside for kill-time. An hour after Slade’s departure the hands were roll ing in for a sleep. The girl saw Kile Foster draw apart from the rest and sit with his hack against a rock. He was. regarding Some small object held in his hand. As be turned it aronnc slit recognized it as a hoot heel and the reason for Rile’s absence was clear to her. He had back-tracked the blue horse to the scene of the mishap. She was half asleep when a voice some distance from the teepee roused her by speaking the name of Bangs “I've a pretty elastic conscience myself.” the voice went on. “I’m no» above lifting a few calves for the brand I’m riding for or any little thing like. that, but this deal sort ot gorges up in me. They’ll never cinch it oh Io any man-r-they never do Old Rile is brooding over it. He’ll likely run amuck. One way or another tie’ll tr.v to break even for Bangs.” Billie recognized the voice as Moores and knew that one of her men. at least had not forgotten Bangs, it was the first time an intimation that tlie affair was other than an accident had reached her ears.s • •••••• The calf round-up was nearing the end. Two weeks would see the finish and supply the final tally Harris sat on a rock ami reviewed the plans he iiad formulated for the salvation of the Three Bar brand, realizing the weak spots and mapping out some special line of defense that might serve to strengthen them. In the se elusion of tlie wagon Waddles was carefully rereading a much-thumbed document for perhaps the hundredth time A man had come in at daylight with the mail from Brill’s and B'Hie Warren was within her teepee poring over her share of it. The men had finished theirs and were sleeping. The girl read first the four letters in rhe same handwriting, one to mark eacli week she had been on the round up. The fifth was from Judge Colton, her father’s old friend, to whose hands all his affairs had been en trusted. After scanning this site read again the other four. Very soon now. in the course of a few months at the outside, she and the writer w<mld meet away from his native environ ment and in the midst of her own Al ways before this had been revet sed and tier association with Carlos Deane had held n background of his own setting—a setting in startling contrast to her tog house nestling in a desert ot sage. The Deane house was a wonderful old-fashioned man sion set in a grove of century-old elms and oaks. She kne.> his life and now he would see her in her natural surroundings. In a hazy sort of way she felt that some day she would listen to the plea that, in some fashion or other, was woven into every letter; but not till the Three Bar was booming and no longer required her supervision Everything else in tlie world was secondary to her love for her fathers brand and the anxiety of the past two years of its decline eclipsed all other issues. Her reflections were interrupted by Harris’ voice just outside Iter teepee. “Asleep. Billie?" he asked softly. “No.” she said. What is it?” “I've thrown your saddle on Pa poose.” he said. “Let’s have a look around.” She assented and they rode off up the left-hand slope of the valley A mile or so from the wagon Harris dismounted on a high point. “Let’s have a medicine chat.” he offered. “I've got considerable on my mind.” She leaned against a rock and he sat cross-legged on the ground, facing her and twisting a cigarette as an aid to thought. Her head was tilted back against the rock, her eyes half closed. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

vocke's story into a poem. Words worth incidentally suggested such of the eerie details as the navigation of the ship by dead men, and also furnished several lines* of the poem itself. Giant Ant Os all the denizens of the tropical forests of Central and South America the giant ant bear is probably the most dangerous. It is said to be t<»<» stupid to know fear, its thick skin and dense stiff hair render it almost impervious to ordinary shot, it Is re markably tenacious of life, and its sixinch curved claws, at the tips ot sinewy limbs, which can swing in any direction and are literally universal jointed, are terrible weapons. No other animal, according to Mr. Hyatt Verrill, the well-known big game hunter, willingly attacks the ant bear, and while the creature cannot move rapidly for any distance, and is usually content to mind his own affairs and devote his life to lapping up ants it becomes positively insane with rage when disturbed or wounded. Too Late Cecil’s mother made it a rule that if he came to the dinner table late tie was not to speak during the meal. The other day, as soon as he entered the room, he began. “I say, mother.” hut his mother quickly reminded him of the rule. “But, mother—’’ he persisted. “Not a word.’’ said the stern parent When dinner was over, his mother asked what he wanted to say. “Oh, 1 only wanted to say haby was tilling father’s socks with condensed milk.” Nqrway abolished capital -punish went in 11**2.

NEW SILHOUETTE ACHIEVED; FAVOR COAT WITH A FLARE m Wi L

J i •/ I lit i &■ / i ■*-' Io * ----- TIIIIM bhihb Striking Evening Dress.

WHERE the younger set is present, taffeta in bouffant styles enlivens the evening picture. One simply must be young and slender to dare the picturesque full and lengthened hem line w h ic h flares from a longwaisted bodice, as

pictured here. As one studies this lovely golvn comes the conviction of a changing silhouette—which is true. The newest lines stress a molded princess basque effect, which takes on extreme fullness at a point much lower on the hipline than heretofore. Also, skirts grow longer and longer for the evening mode. However, their lines are so exquisitely modulated with sheerness and unevenness one feels in no sense that they are too long. The evening taffetas, for which youth shows such a fondness, revel in "delicious” colorings. The gown in which Dorothy Gulliver, a rising Hollywood star if you please, poses for this picture is an exquisite nile green. It seems that green Is an outstand ing favorite this season among tlie fashionable pastel shades. By the way, pak“delicate green is as becoming to brunettes as blondes, which may account for its popularity. Crystals trim this prepossessing princess-fitted bodice outlining a Vshaped front opening. The bouffant skirt is twice scalloped, once around its taffeta edge and again about the hemline of self-colored transparent net. In selecting the new party frock do not forget that flowered taffeta is also coming into flattering notice. In fashion’s vocabulary “crisp” is a word which is acquiring considerable usage.. We hear repeatedly about crisp taffeta, crisp nets, likewise stiff metal cloths. It is a fact nets and tulles are actually being processed to stand out “crisp” and lively in the making. To further the effect, fashionists style these dainty crisp silks and transparencies with flaring flounces and peplum flanges at the waistline and otherwise do they em

phasize their sprightliness. A late vogue calls for stiff or crisp fabrics made up in tailored simplicity for evening wear. Moire is one of the definitely sponsored stiff silks this season, to which is usually given a tailored styling. Tlie colorings of the new moires qre a delight to tlie eye. Banana shade, eggshell and bright red are featured shades. The decollete neckline for the bodice of moire is usually extreme and severe in line. This simple decolletage which is so stressed by the mode makes an admirable setting for jewels and for corsage flowers. When it comes to the skirt, one tier after another stands out in aggressive circular flares, yet they are so ad-

Blimps in Bloomers Abbreviations of the familiar length in bloomers are models that fit low on the hip and higli on the leg. These are said to be far more comfortable and nr*- more attractive tfratr the variety having voluminous shirrings at both waistline and knee. Return of the Reefer A long midship reefer of knitted cheviot is one of those very new ideas which has arrived in tlie shops now full of fascinating fashions. i

justed as to retain a slender feeling. It’s been casting its shadow before this many a day:—the coat with a Hare. As Paris sees it ami has been seeing it for quite some time the flare’s tlie thing! However. American women are so infatuated with tlie idea of straight slenderizing lines they are slow to react to the widened hemline. BeJhat as it may. the flare is gradually inveigling itself into the mode. Reluctant as some may be to adopt it. fashion’s whims cannot be ignored by those who wou'd be modern. The flared coal, it seems, as stylists explain it. is not, however, so much a caprice of the mode as it is the result of a cause and the cause is the trend to bouffaney in skirts. Acquiring as they have a multiplicity of tiers, many flounces, many drapes and numerous voluminous bows, an accommodating fullness in the wrap under which they are posed becomes a necessity. Therefore it behooves the present generation of fashion followers to study the intriguing ways of flares as latest coat modes record them. Already it becomes apparent that there are flares and flares. Some register a circular treatment from the hips. The Paris-made coat in the picture adopts this movement. Os gray cloth is this charming sports coat and it is paneled and cuffed with gray astrakhan. Gray, by the way. is tremendously smart for coats and furs this season. With as striking a model its, the coat illustrated pointing the way, even the most skeptical have cause to become converted to the idea of flares. Not all flares are from the hips, but are achieved in various ways. Sometimes short godets from below the

knee accomplish the trick. Then again definite flounce treatments are resorted to, or a low circular movement is introduced. Plaited godets are also in use for many of tlie French coats. Not only is there a flair for flares in fashion’s realm, but considerable interest is being expressed for fitted lines which suggest the, princess silhouette. In some <>f the smartest coats tlie two combine. Semi fitted lines to below the waistline gradually develop a flare which finally accomplishes a widened hemline. Which would warrant the prediction that coat silhouettes for spring will feature many interesting innovations. JULIA BOTTOM LEY. <©. 1929. Western Newspaper Union. 1
