VCqdt NATIONAL TOPICS INTERPRETED

NATIONAL PRESS BLDG. WASHINGTON. D.C.

Washington. — President Roosevelt baa settled a controversy by the sim­

ple expedient of Settle transferring two men

Controversy from responsible po­sitions In the Virgin

islands to jobs in Washington. He has taken Paul M. Pearson from the post of civil governor of the Virgin Islands and has made him assistant di­rector of housing in the Interior de­partment and has transferred Federal Director Judge T. Webber Wilson from &la post in the islands to the federal parole board here In Washington. Bach man has accepted his new ap­pointment and In so far as a current controversy is concerned, the book Is closed.

It will be recalled that Governor Pearson and Judge Wilson long have been at loggerheads over Virgin Island affairs. The battle was bitter. It came to a head when Paul Yates, executive assistant to the governor and a former Washington corre­spondent, resigned his Job and came back here with a bag full of charges against bis former chief. The Yates allegations ranged all the way from minor charges of poor Judgment to gross accusations. He succeeded in getting a senate committee investiga­tion and It was at that time that the Pearson-Wilson feud flared so openly that administration officials here were dragged in and the whole scope of differences aired.

As a matter of fact there is every reason to believe that Governor Pear­son was far from a successful execu­tive in the islands. He frequently aroused the Ire of natives and, ac­cording to testimony adduced by the senate Investigation, had very little to show for the sums of money he ex­pended In attempting to give the Vir­gin Islands a new lease on life. All of the Information tends to establish that the Islands continue to be "an effectual poorhouse" Just as President Hoover described them on the occa­sion of a visit during his term as Chief Executive.

But Governor Pearson had his sup­porters In the administration. Chief j among these was Secretary I ekes whose department IB responsible for administration of the islands. Just why Mr. Ickes has been so enthusiastic about Governor Pearson's regime is not fully disclosed in any evidence here except that the interior secretary has certain Ideas about social reform that some unkind critics refer to as pure socialism which Governor Pear­son had been attempting to Impose upon the island Inhabitants. Governor Pearson has expended vast sums of PWA funrts In the islands in his efforts to carry out the Ickes program of ref­ormation. It seems, however, that the schemes were not as practical as they might have been and so trouble started in a rather extensive fashion.

The President stayed outside of the row until In the course of the senate Inquiry Senator Tydings, a Maryland Democrat and usually an anti-Roosevelt Democrat, received a letter from Mr. Ickes. Mr. Ickes ac­cused the investigating chairman with having whitewashed a witness whose testimony was all anjl-lckes and anti-Pearson. The senator flared up in a big way at that letter. His reply is likely to become a classic in official correspondence. He did not mince his words. After voicing his general conception of the attitude exhibited by Mr. Ickes and accusing. him of at­tempting to interfere In the Investiga­tion, Senator Tydings Informed the in­terior secretary that he may as well attempt to run the Department of the Interior and let the senators run the senate. He used Just about those words.

That was the signal for Mr. Roose­velt to take a hand. It was easy to •ee that a few outbursts of that kind and Mr. Ickes might have found him­self In a splendid position to resign from the cabinet So the President got the feudists into his office, singly of course, and when those conferences were over the senate Investigation into the Virgin Island situation was sus­pended' for two weeks. The transfer of Governor Pearson and Judge Wilson resulted..

One might properly inquire why all of this agitation haa occurred about

the Virgin islands. Why the They are many hun-

Agittttion? dreds of miles from Washington. They lie

In the Caribbean sea, considerably out of the usual pathway of ships; they are populated by about 22,000 indi­viduals, 95 per cent of whom are negroes and may generally be de­scribed as a "backward" place.

They may have tome military and naval value. That has never been folly demonstrated. But the fact re­mains they are possessions of the United States and if our government la to be their protector, it is responsible for. a sane administration of their affaire.

The Washington fight may have had its start in the Virgin islands, but it has progressed beyond that-point and its a domestic battle now. It is safe it* say that for 18 years, which Is the

Linen Suit a Midsummer Favorite By CHERIE NICHOLAS

time the islands have been under United States rule, there has been a dire need for a plan of government suited to those people. Each year con­gress has been appropriating thou­sands of dollars for the island govern­ment and each year there has been miserably little in the way of improve­ment to show for these funds.

Almost as frequently as congress has appropriated money it has made changes in the administration meth­ods in use there. There has never been a long term program laid out and there has been nothing whatsoever done showing the sympathy of a so-called intellectual people as we claim to be for those downtrodden masses that populate the Virgin Islands.

All of this, it seems to me, shows the woeful need for careful considera­tion of that situation. It seems to me equally apparent that as long as con- I gress keeps meddling in and as long as politicians from the mainland are sent there purely on a political basis we will continue to have a pack of trouble bundled up in those Virgin islands.

Several attempts have been made to work out a governmental system worth while but the politicians are not among those who will let plums escape. It is certain, therefore, that the Pearson-Wiison-Ickea-Tydlngs battle royal is an outcropping of what amounts to a festering sore in American govern­mental policy.

* • • If congress continues in session past

August 15, and it Is now apparent that , It may run to Sep-

Long Session tember 1, it will have Severe Strain been in session 225

days, some two weeks longer than the average of the so-called long sessions of congress. Prior to adoption of the "lame duck" amendment which did away with ses­sions of unequal length, the shorter sessions of congress averaged about 170 days. The longer terms were around 215 days before final adjourn­ment was taken. Thus, the current session stands In a fair way to be among the list of hardy sessions.

All of which is by way of saying that the current session of congress has worn down its members both physically and mentally to an extent quite unusual. I was talking a few days ago with a veteran senator, a man who has served almost 25 years In the upper house of congress. He Is known as a physically strong indi­vidual and usually lasts very well through the work that piles up before senators and_representlves. I inquire! of him concerning the general health of congress and his reply was:

"I regret to say we are Just a bunch of debilitated old men, incapable of doing the job that is expected of us and everyone is hoping against hope that we can live through this work and this heat."

As a result of that converstalon the thought came to me that here was an answer to the oft repeated declaration that members of congress fall to earn their salaries of $10,000 per year. I have observed congressional proceed­ings almost a score of years and it is my mature conviction that few times In that period has congress failed to earn its salt.

* • * There Is another reason why con­

gressional sessions should not run so long and should not

When Solon* be carried on in the Are Tired intense heat of a

Washington summer. One condition nearly always has ob­tained near the close of a long ses­sion. As the days drag by, persona with axes to grind and individual in­terests, to serve have a way of digging up questionable bills that theretofore had been side-tracked and assumed to be dead. With resistance low, the average senator or representative is unable to fight off legislation which he knows to be bad with the same spirit that accompanied his activities earlier In the session. Likewise, he is unable to battle as successfully as before for legislation which he knows to be good.

This condition opens the way for a revival of lobbies. They are back in Washington in numbers now despite the disclosures being made by the two congressional committees that are in­vestigating the lobbies that operated to defeat, temporarily at least, the legis­lation killing utility holding com­panies. One would have assumed justly with the investigations under way after the utility legislation was passed that lobbyists and self-serving representatives would have been frightened away from Washington, Such was not the case. They are here in such numbers that some observers believe Mr. Roosevelt has made a mis­take in demanding that congress stay until it has enacted the sbare-the-wealth-tax bill and the legislation which will prohibit lawsuits against the government for damages resulting from abrogation of the promise in gov­ernment bonds to pay them in gold. Mr. Roosevelt is insisting on these laws. He will get than. But in the opinion of many authorities he stands a fair chance also of getting some other legislation which he may not want • '

THE STORY OF LAS PLACITAS

WITH AN EYE TO COOL SIMPLICITY:

*ATTEKN «354

THE present vogue for linen Is noth­ing short of sensational. Whether

you go dining, dancing, swimming, fly­ing, motoring, golfing or shopping, or play tennis, there's a linen for every occasion from rustic crashes and peas­ant weaves and colorful Tahltlan prints to alluring novelties in stripes and plaids and in sheer lovely effects for high-style evening wear.

Midsummer days are proving that linen suits, especially In white ana" nat­ural tones, are of first interest among best dressed women for about-town wear. A linen suit and a wardrobe of blouses and the problem of being smartly appareled during the daytime hours Is solved not only for the imme­diate moment but for well on into the fall, since the very newest linens are In wine shades, in Dubonnet red, in beetroot, purple and orange tones.

Just now, while the weather Is warm, it's the white and natural linens that are lending their Immaculate ana' well-groomed appearance to the summer scene. The trio of stunning suits pic­tured represent the very creme de la creme in linens as now featuring on the style program.

The young woman seated shows that she knows fashion in that with her suit of moygashel linen, In natural col­or, she is wearing a dark blouse, the same being brown with white polka dots. Tou are doing the right thing this season If to wear with your white and natural linens you choose dark accessories. The coat Is single breast­ed with buttons all the way up to the collarless neckline. A novel Idea is Introduced in the placement of deep large pockets above the belt line. Rag­lan sleeves ao'd a final touch pf smart­ness to this linen classic

The other two suits are also of moygashel linen. It Is rather inter­

esting to know in this connection that King George sends the flax grown on his royal estate at Sandrlngham, Eng­land (supposed to be the finest flax in the world) to Moygashel, Ireland, there to be woven, because the workmanship is so fine—quite a royal pedigree for these linens.

The two-piece centered in the group has a tight-fitting basque coat with no belt to disturb the natural line. It Is of white linen with navy buttons and tie. The double binding to the coat which gives a vestee effect is new and smart The sports flap pockets are chic, too.

Handstitehlng around the notched! collar and the pockets gives a distinct­ive touch to the white linen suit to the right The stitching and the belt are In matched coloring. The coat is dou­ble-breasted, and a polka dot shirt is worn'under it

A very fashionable thing to do Is wear a bright colored linen coat or jacket with your white linen skirt Lilac colored linens for these coats are the rage with beetroot or Dubonnet red close secono's.

Then, too, novelty linens with nubby surface or loose porous weave are in good style for suits and for coats. These heavier suits are mostly in oys­ter white. Very "nifty" ones are shad­ow-checked in gray and some stunning weaves are in herringbone patterning flecked with brown.

There are lovely embroidered linens shown for dressier wear and sheer striped linens are made up into fasci­nating evening gowns, as formally as if they were stately silks. With the new fall tweed suits designers are cre­ating clever blouses of fine handker­chief linens In colorings related to the costume entire.

SMART BEACHWEAR By CHERIE NICHOLAS

This beach ensemble is out of the ordinary. It is fashioned of purpl fishnet lace over a linen foundation. Which again proves tha/lace goes ev­erywhere this season^ The ensemble consists of a pair of shorts and blouse with a wrap-around skirt, The Urjs hat is of purple straw. . , —

SHOE COMFORT IS MOST IMPORTANT

To be footloose and free during the season of pleasant week ends and after-dark breathing spaces, one must have foot comfort

Cool shoes with flexible construction are a likely way of getting this com­fort, with preference given lightweight numbers, and those that are ventilated by perforations, lattice and cut-outs.

Novelties in shoes are always at their peak In the summer season, and they are usually far more moderately priced than the novelties thought up for evening shoes to complement for­mal winter costumes.

Sandals of printed linen or crash, slippers covered with gay flowered chiffon, oxfords of splendid supporting strength, perforated into lacy pretti-ness, plain cotton or linen shoes of any color you can name, plaid linen in nat­ural tones, checked gingham, in kitchen apron designs, lightweight suede in any pastel hue or any flag hue and ero* cheted string shoes are just a few of the kinds you can choose from in the shops.

Oriental Influence Seen in Evening Clothes S ty le t

The Hindn influence* inspired by the Maharanee of India, has initiated a definite swing away from fitted, bias lines to softly draped designs in eve­ning clothes. Allied Influence*, such as Persian, Arabian, and a new version of Grecian folds, contribute to the same effect These flattering, age-old drap­ery, details are difficult to make and hence are not easily copied, a point be­ing/stressed now lot high style circles,

the Parisian coutnriere, has turned out a thrilling array of Oriental formal gowns. Most of them are topped with seductive saris, those long, scarf-like affairs which start oat by wrapping around the body and then proceed to cover the head is the man-

THEY were sitting on their heels in the shade of a corral fence, these

two southwesterners, one day in the spring of 1880. It was at a place not far from Santa Fe, that center of romance and excitement for the whole western country. As they talked about things old and new, never dreaming what madness was in store for them, old Jesse Martin came riding up, all steamed up over something.

"Look at this, boys," he said, fairly I stuttering. *Tve' got the richest thing on top of this here earth.'*

"This" was a handful of ore—ore so rich that the two friends caught the contagion and grew as excited as Mar­tin.

"Where'd you get It Jess?" they asked, eagerly.

"I ain't a-goin' to tell you," was the answer, "Not now, boys, I ain't. I got a parner in Santa Fe, and I'm goln' to tell him first. Then when we git everything filed, I'll let you In on it."

All the pleading they could do would not move Martin from this decision. He rode off finally toward Santa Fe with his ore and his news, leaving them to wonder where In the world he had found such a bonanza. Had he run across the Adams diggings, or the Hatchet mine? Pshaw, those places were too far south for Martin to find. This must be something a lot nearer home.

Nearer home—why, perhaps they could ask some questions of the Mexi­cans and Indians thereabouts, and find out where old Martin had been. That was the Idea! Hastily they caught up their horses, rode forth, and began to

"*ake up'Martin's trail. Ob yes, said someone here and someone else there, the old man had passed this way, or he had ridden yonder. We saw him Just a day or so ago. He was coming from thus-and-such a direction. So the pair rode in that direction. And sure enough, they finally came to a claim, all regularly staked. In the prospect hole was ore—ore like that he had showed them—very rich ore.

The two men were greatly pleased with 4helr forethought—in tracing down the location. With business-like promptness, they staked their claims alongside Martin's. From these new mines-ln-the-maklng they gathered a few samples, and then they raced back to an assayer, wild with curiosity. How would the ore turn out?

The assayer grew excited with themv Hastily he prepared for the business of extracting gold, as they watched C»e process with eager eyes. At last-

In the bottom of the crucible lay a button of something. Now for the acid test—would it prove to be gold? With trembling hands the assayer poured In the acid—and the button did not cut! Eureka! They were worth fortunes!

They rushed back to their claims, The news had already spread, in that strange manner with which the word of new-found gold always has spread, and men were coming in to stake | claims as near to theirs as possible.

Then came a crowd from Santa Fe. At Its head were Jesse Martin and— Governor Lew Wallace! So that was the partner! The news ran ahead of

I them—Jesse's samples had assayed j $75 to $100 to the ton. Everyone j laughed with glee—everyone cheered. I In three days Las Placltas accumu-i lated a population of 10,000 souls. Ev-! eryone was gold-crazy—the golden

phantom had led them to fortune and they had left their wits behind when they set out to follow her. And y e t -

Some of the more sober souls be­gan to quiet down. It was time to make more assays, to see just how far the gold spread out, to learn just how rich it would run.

The assays were made. They showed no value at all.

The shock was tremendous. Men re­fused at first to believe i t They argued angrily that there was some mistake. They knew that they had found gold. The assayer must be a fool, not to know his business. He could not find gold when it was right under his nose.

Then someone thought of looking for Jesse Martin. He had "the rich­est thing on top of this here earth,** did he? Well, he'd better explain him­self.

But Martin bad vanished from sight —and with him disappeared about $4,000 In real money—money that he had obtained .from Lew Wallace and other prominent men of Santa Fe. He> had "lit out" for parts unknown as soon as the rush set in. He was too keen an old codger to risk discovery and retribution.

But the mine—that was still there, and the rich ore had most certainly come from his claim! So It had—but not originally. Martin had salted the hole with high-grade from another mine.

AMMONIUM SULPHATE x "The Ideal Wheat Crop Fertilizer"

Ammonium Sulphate with its high percentage of Ammonia, is especially vaulable for fertilizing the wheat crop. Apply from 50 to 75 pounds of Ammon­ium Sulphate per acre to start the growth of fall-sown wheat. Follow in the spring with an application of 100 pounds per acre when growth starts. Applica­tions may be broadcast or drilled. This is the most economical fertilizer and will increase your wheat yield. It is made by the Ford Motor Co.

ND now, after years of postpone­ment and delay, the time has come , for you to pay your taxes.

You can't put off this duty any longer. Your peace of mind and domestic secur­ity demand it. * Fortunate, indeed, are the taxpayers

of Michigan. A thoughtful legislature has acted boldly to lighten their burden. Never before has the tax-payer met with Buch-prime consideration.

You, who still owe taxes for 1932 and previous years can now pay in the origi­nal amount. Although years have passed you need pay no interest or penalties here alone saving yourself from i/% to 45%, and even more.

But your law-makers have not stopped fct merely cutting intere^|t|an^ penalties. JWell they know that debts piled up with

the years can not be met over night, even if the totals are reduced. So They, Created The "10-Year Plan"!

Now you can pay your back taxes for 1932 and prior years so as to take ad­vantage of big and worthwhile savings. If you cannot pay in full at this time you can pay as little as one-tenth and pay the balance over a period of years, with only a small carrying charge.

September first is the last day to pay' back taxes for 1932 and prior years with-1

out interest or penalties. Do not delay! Act Now! Your County Treasurer will quickly tell you the exact amount of your tax. He will accept your payments and restore you to good standing as 9 faithj ful tax-payer of a great State, :"~~*' -

Various methods of drying are be­ing employed. The attic of a house, the upstairs of^tool shed or garage make very good places for storage. Some people prefer to use a series of nails and jab the cobs onto these so that two ears will not come in con­tact with each other. Some prefer to leave the husk on the ears and string them on a series of wires. Either of these methods will be far superior to the crib method.

J ' t t t greatest possible social and eameattoeal economy is to give young Children expert guidance so that they may be saved building up the unfortunate behavior which must later be broken down,'' writes H. & O'Shea, and President Charles J. Turck says, "I believe that it is the obligation of the state to provide free kindergartens of the best edu­cational type for every child, and 1 further believe that no other invest­ment that the state can make will pay higher dividends in character and citizenship."

The National Kindergarten asso­ciation, 8 West Fortieth street New York city, is always glad to assist, with free literature, any who are working for the public maintenance of a kindergarten under a properly trained teacher.

Jean called out sharply, 'Is that you, Kentucky? Are you hurt?"

"They hit Lee Bishop, Jean." She slid out of the saddle, tossing

the reins over her pony's head, and came to the edge of the coulee. "Where's L e e r

"Drop down and I'll take you to him." He held up his arms and she let herself drop into them, but freed herself immediately.

"Is he hit bad?" He whispered, "He can hear us from

here, I think. I tion't know but what they've finished him, Jean. He's shot in the side of the back, and Lord knows where the bullet stopped. You shouldn't have come here—don't you know that?"

"Somebody had to come. Campo— my father is back from Waterman; but Harry Wilson quit when Campo wouldn't bring out more riders. You and Campo oand I are all that's left. And now poor Lee—poor Lee—"

He led her down the cut to where Bishop lay. The range boss opened his eyes and turned his face toward her. "Is that you, Jean?"

She dropped on her knees beside blm. "Yes, Lee."

"Didn't know but what I might be hearing things. Where's Campo?"

"He's making a sweep of the upper Bench trail. Lee, you must be plumb frozen?"

"Pretty near," Bishop admitted. Jean slipped off her coat, and care­

fully wrapped Bishop's legs. Then she scrambled out of the cut, ran to her horse and, loosening the cinch, jerked her blanket from under the saddle. When this was placed to suit her, she made ready to go.

"It's sure a shot-to-pieces outfit you bought into, Kentucky."

"That deal Is off," he told her. "I own no share In the Bar Hook, nor any part of a share."

Jean looked at him but there was no expression in her foce, nor In her voice as she answered. "So you're quitting, too."

"No, nftf quite yet," Kentucky told her grimly. "I'm just going ahead in a little different way than we figured I was going to; that's all."

Jean dropped beside Lee Bishop again, and for a long time studied the mask of bis face, yellow in the firelight He seemed asleep. Irrepressible tears appeared on Jean's cheeks, glinting in the light of the fire. She bent over Lee Bishop and kissed him. "Good-by, Lee," she said softly. "I'll be back pretty quick."

Lee Bishop smiled faintly. "Take your time, kid."

Jean caught Kentucky's wrist and led him a little way down the cut. "Do you think there's any chance of moving him?"

"I don't know as we better try, Jean. When you get back to the house, phone to Waterman for Doc Hopper. Then

•Ma That You, Ksntueky?"

pack a horse and come back. Get hold of a tent if there's any on the place, and all the bed-rolls that come handy, and grub, and bandages, and stuff. You know what we'll need.**

Jean Ragland scaled the side of the cut, re-cinched her saddle, and rode off at a sharp trot

Lee Bishop said, "There goes a great girl, Kentucky. You're lucky, all right"

••Lucky? M e r •'She'd ride her horse square off

the rim," Lee Bishop said, "if you told her to." Be was talking in a queer and somehow childish tone of voice which Kentucky had never heard him use. "Listen, Kentucky. Get this— can you hear me all right T

"I can hear you, Lee." "You're worse off than you think,

Kentucky. Campo believes you killed

Kentucky said slowly, "I don't know but what Campo has almighty good reason to know better than that, Lee."

"What If he has?" Lee demanded. "What you don't know is, he's been gathering up stuff against you—trac­ing guns, and the like of that In a pinch he'll turn on you, Campo will! But believe in that girl. She believes in you; and she'll stand by you."

"The pinch will come quick, now" Kentucky said. "But she'll not be with me, Lee."

Lee Bishop said in a curious hoarse whisper, "She'd jerk the heart out of her, if you needed It She's got a faith in you that you don't have for her."

"Faith?" Kentucky repeated savage­ly. "If she'd trusted me only half way, only quarter way, you and I wouldn't

—be Bitting here tonight" Lee Bishop looked at Kentucky a

long time, and his mind seemed to be turning vague. "You ain't licked, Ken­tucky," he said at last in a weak voice. "You can beat this game yet."

"Sure I'll beat it," Kentucky as­sured him. "Lee, I'll beat It in spite of her!"

Lee Bishop said in a queer voice, "You—you couldn't go against that girl, Kentucky."

"I'd sooner cut off my right hand, Lee; but I've got to go square against her now."

For another long moment Lee Bishop fixed staring, vacant eyes upon Ken­tucky's face. "You love her, huh?"

Kentucky Jones shivered; he felt as if the grip of the night cold was get­ting the better of him, so that his body had a core of ice. He covered his face with his hands. "I think," he said, "I hate her as I've never hated any living thing in my life."

Lee Bishop's words Jerked out of him incoherently, but unexpectedly sharp and strong. "God help you, Ken­tucky—don't say that!"

"All right, Lee." • • . a • • •

Jean Ragland made the round trip— and loaded a mule at the other end— in a little over four hours, which was wonderful time on those night trails. But she might as well have saved her animals; for an hour before she reached Trap canyon Lee Bishop was dead.

When Kentucky had packed the body to the Bake Pan camp of the Bar Hook, where he placed It with that of Jim Humphreys, he faced his horse Into the steep switch-back trail up the rim, and started for the main ranch.

Kentucky had agreed with Jean Rag­land that to take Lee Bishop to the Bake Pan camp was a shorter and more convenient pack; and Kentucky had seized upon the opportunity to re­lease Jean from the mournful proces­sion and send her home.

He now put his horse up the trail stiffly, climbing fast. He felt no weari­ness, but onl£ a black temper. Now that he knew for the first time what set of ugly circumstances he was up against, he knew what he had to do; it was not easy, and he wanted to get it behind him.

The voices of the guns and the cir­cumstances of Lee Bishop's death had brought him an odd new alertness, an almost painful consciousness of every­thing that moved within the limits of the rlmrock horizon. It was as if he had found himself returned to the days of his forefathers, when an awareness of far-off details had a lot to do with keeping, on a man's scalp.

And long before Jean Ragland came In sight, he knew that two horses were coming toward him along the trail, that they had but one rider,,and that the second horse was not driven, but led.

For a moment after Jean came in sight he was absorbed by the sight of her. She rode a little dark pony, and her short white storm coat was in key with the snow. Hardly anybody ever saw Jean Ragland ride without follow­ing her with his eyes, as a man looks after a bird that is a bright living dec­oration against the snow. And how the girl and the pony she rode looked better'because the led horse was raw-boned and mud colored, with only a sharp, well-tracked leg action to sug­gest that It might be more horse than at first It seemed.

As they met in the trail he saw that her face was quiet with the resigna­tion which had characterized it for the last two days; but her eyes were alive. There was a touch of feverish light in them which told htm that she was still fighting, though what she was righting, or how, be was no longer sure that he knew.

"I've brought you a fresh horse," she said immediately. "Maybe It doesn't look like much horse, but it is a whole lot of horse. Pretty near any Bar Hook horse would give down under you be­fore this plug would."

"I suppose I kind of ought to appre­ciate that," Kentucky said; "but, Jean, bow come you think I am going to need such a long-traveling horse?" .

"Kentucky,* the said, "Kentucky—"

She drew her hand across her eyes, as if what she was trying to say was almost beyond her ability. "Look here. I've asked a lot of favors of you, Ken-tuck ; a lot more than I ever had any right to ask. I have to ask you one thing more. If you'll do this one thing more for me, I'll be grateful to you all my life; and I swear I'll never ask anything of you again."

"Jean, girl," Kentucky said, "what's happened heue?"

"Take this horse, and the mule, and such of the Btuff as you need. I don't need to tell you where to go or how to get there, nor how to get along; but do as I say! Go a long way, and go fast, and lose yourself; and never come back until some day this ghastly thing is over with and forgotten!"

Kentucky Jones stared at her a long time, studying her face; but her eyes did not flinch from his. At last a crooked one-sided smile changed bis mouth.

"I know this is a terrible sacrifice for you," Jean said. "I wouldn't ask you this, Kentucky, I swear I wouldn't, if I wasn't so positive that there's no other way. Believe this—I'll be your friend, always; It may be later that I can help you, and send your money to you, or something like that That will work out later. All I can say now is that I'd rather be dead than sitting here telling you this; but there isn't any other way."

"Why do you ask this?" Kentucky said curiously. J

"Kentucky—God forgive m e ! - / can'fr answer that! But I tell you that there Isn't any time to lose! Not an hour, not even—I can't tell you any more! I can only—"

"You'll have to tell me, I think," Kentucky said.

His face was hard, and the fatigue that she had been unable to detect before now had carved lines about his mouth, emphasizing the crooked line of his broken nose.

"You've got to do what I say," she told him passionately, "without any question of why about It."

"You hardly expected me to do that, I think," he told her.

Jean cried out sharply, "Don't! Take the horse and go. Kentucky, as you love me—but you don't love me; 1 know that."

"I think," he said, "just now It doesn't matter a whole lot who loves who, or who doesn't."

There was a touch of hysteria In her voice as she answered him. "No, not to you—I think you don't care any­thing about anybody in the world!"

"God help the man who does," he said. "As for taking that horse and making a run of it, I'm sorry not to do something that you ask. But I can't imagine anything on the face of the earth that would make me do that now."

"Then," she said quickly, "I'll tell you why you must. My father—my father—" It seemed for a moment as If she were unable to go on. But she pulled herself together and spoke even­ly, her words distinct and quick. "You know by this time why Bob Elliot is swamping the Bar Hook range. You have eyes that see things—I don't think anyone can hide from you what a thing means. You can't make me think that you don't know why Elliot has no fear of Campo, nor the Bar Hook."

"No," he said slowly, "I wouldn't pretend that I can't see that."

Her words tumbled out of her inco­herently. "It's because Bob Elliot was close to the Bar Hook when Mason was killed. Poor Lee Bishop knew that—though I don't think he knew that he knew It I—" .

Kentucky Jones said, "Bishop told me that he knew."

"And now," said Jean, "now I've got to tell you that I've known this all along—almost from the first And I—"

"You're sure you want to tell me this, Jean?"

"I have to tell you—you make me tell you—"

That was a strange meeting, there on the trail In all that dazzle of sun-whipped snow, while all the sharp, sad, hidden things that this girl had never-meant to tell a living soul came trem­bling out of her in a panicky disorder. Perhaps he should have wept or gath­ered her In his arms; but he could not

"All right," he said. "What, exactly, is Bob Elliot holding over your fa­ther?"

"Somehow he's guessed the truth: that—whoever killed Mason killed him with my father's rifle. I knew that when I put the bullet into your hand at the inquest; I've known for days that you must know that too, though you said nothing to me."

"Yes," he admitted, "I figured out that"

"And Bob Elliot knows it—I'm cer­tain he knows i t Though I swear I don't know how he is so sure." — -

'But you yourself are sure that it Is true—that the murderer used your fa­ther's rifle?"

"The—the—yes; I'm virtually certain of that And my father knows i t He—"

"Have you talked this over with him?"

"No—how could I? It's changed him so I hardly know him. He used to have a terrible fighting temper—but where is it now? He doesn't dare come to a showdown with Elliot; he's afraid of the effect the shock would have on my mother."

"And on you." "On my mother," she repeated. "He

doesn't dare face it out because of her. But just as be won't fight Elliot because of that—something in his makeup keeps him from protecting himself, too. Nothing would bring him to hide evidence—though that evidence might turn against him, as well as against the true murderer. Be must have known—"

"Then," said Kentucky, "his alibi— ' about being somewhere ejse at the time Mason was. killed—is not so good as some people have been led to suppose?"

"He hasn't any testimony in support of it but mine. They'll discount that, because I'm his daughter; even—even if they don't break my testimony in some other way."

He did not stop to tell her that he knew by this that her support of Cam-po's alibi had been perjury. Instead he asked her, "How many people know that Campo—your father set out to kill Bob Elliot the day Mason was killed?"

She cried out with a shudder in her voice, "You even know that?"

"Bob Elliot told me that," he said shortly.

Jean Ragland looked dizzy, and sick.'. "Then who can tell how many people Bob Elliot has told?"

Kentucky Jones stripped off his gloves and made himself a cigarette.

"And how many people," Kentucky said slowly, "do you think can tell a living man from a ghost?"

Her voice quavered irregularly, no

you saw that picture was stolen, you were panic-stricken, and hid the emp­ty frame from your father. Now I'm going to tell you what that picture was."

"You can't—you never saw—" "It was a picture of a man on a

horse. When you first looked at that picture It seemed to be an enlarged snapshot of Bob Elliot. Only—when you looked close, it was not Elliot, but John Mason. Do you deny that, Jean?"

"No," said Jean miserably. "You see? It's just as 1 said. Nothing escapes you, nothing's able to hide itself away from you. That—that's the rest of the case against my father. Lee Bishop didn't know who It was he saw near the Bar Hook when he thought he saw Mason, and Joe St. Marie only thought he saw Mason's ghost. But— when they rested sideways in their saddles with their faces hidden, a long way off or In the dark—anybody could —could mistake Bob Elliot for Mason."

"Or," he said, "an an^ry man might —just possibly—mistake Mason for El­liot."

She drew a deep breath and pressed her gloved finders against her eyes, but did not reply.

'7t's my belief," Kentucky said, "that It was the sheriff who searched the house—or had It searched; in which case, he must have that picture."

"I think you're right about the sher­iff; he must have been looking for the gun to match the Mason bullet. But he didn't take, the picture of Mason— because I took it myself.**

"You did? But you looked scared—"

"I didn't hide frame and all, at first, because It left a pale spot on the wall, that Dad would have npticed. I meant to slide some other picture into the frame. But I forgot i t And then, with Dad hunting all through the house, to see what had been taken, I thought he'd notice the empty frame—and I was terrified."

"And that rifle—" He paused, watch­ing her, and licked shut hi* cigarette.

"The rifle!" she burst out, Jerking her hand away from her eyes. "Who knows where that is now? How do wei know that Bob Elliot doesn't have

"No," be said, "Bob Elliot doesn't have the rifle.''

Her voice rose hysterically. "How do you know he hasn't?"

"Because," he told her, "that rifle Is dismounted and hidden ln the mat­tress of your bed."

She stared at him blankly for a long moment "Oh, dear Lord," she said at last in a broken voice. "Why did I ever try to hide anything from you?" She did not avert her face from him, sitting very straight ln the sad­dle. "Yes, I hid It Campo must have known at once that Mason was killed with his rifle; but do you think any­thing in the world could have per­suaded him to do away with that rifle, to pitch it into the bottom of some canyon?"
