mighty secret about tills Job. How do
I know Ihls ain't n forgery?"
"Cull up tin inuyor and ask Idin,"
Rryce suggested.
"I'll do that," quoth Mr. IVrklns
liondproiisly. "And In the meantime,
don't do nny more digging or rail-cut-ting."
He liurrlel away to Ids auto
mobile, leaving a lieutenant In charge
of (lw squad.
"Mm In the meantime, young man,"
Colonel Pennington announced, "yon
will pardon me If I take possession of
my locomotive and Hat ears. I ob
serve you have finished unloading
those rails."
"Help yourself, Colonel," Rryce re
filled with an assumption of heard-iu!.-s
he was far from feeling.
'Thnnk you so much, Cardigan."
With the greatest good nature In life,
Pennington cllnthed Into the ' call,
reached for the bell-cord, and rang ,
the bell vigorously.
Then he permitted himself a tri
umphant toot .of the whistle, after
which ho threw off the air and gently
opened the throttle. lie was not a lo
comotive engineer but he hail ridden
In the cab of his own locomotive and
felt ipilte conlldent of his ability In
a pinch.
With a creak and a bump the train
started, and the Colonel ran It slowly
up until the locomotive stood on the
racks exactly whero Ruck Ogllvy had
been cutting In his crossing; where
upon tho Colonel locked the brakes,
opened his exhaust, and blew the holl
er down. And when the last ounce of
steam had escaped, he descended and
smilingly accosted Ilryce Cardigan.
"That engine being my property," he
nupounced, "I'll takn the short end of
nny bet you care to make, young man,
that It will sit on those tracks until
your temporary franchise expires.
Out In your ,1ump-crosslng now, If you
can, you whelp, and be d d to you.
I've got you blocked 1"
'T rather Imagine this nice gentle
man has It on us, old dear," chirped
Ruck,Ogllvy plaintively. "Well! We
did our damndest, which angels can't
do no more. Let us gather up our
totals and go home, my Sou, for some
thing tells me that If I hang around
here I'll bust one of two things this
sleek scoundrel's grny head or one of
my belllcoso veins I llellol Whom
have wo here?"
Ilryce turned and found himself
facing Shirley Sumner. Iler tender
Hp was quivering, and the tears shone
In her eyes like stars. Ho stared at
her' In silence.
"My friend." she murmured tremu
lously, "didn't I tell you I would not
permit you to build tho N. C. O.?"
He bowed his bead In rage and
shame at his defeat. Huck Ogllvy
took him by tho arm. "Ilryce, old
chap, this Is one of those occasions

ley."

'I'll do It for you. Miss Sumner," be
continued, "and Colonel Pennington,"
favoring that triumphant rascal
with nn equally grnclous bow, "wo
leave you In possession of tho Hold
temporarily. However, if anybody
should drlvo up In a hack and lean
out nnd ask you, just tell ,hlm Huck
Ogllvy has another trump tucked away
In. his kimono."
Bryco turned to go, but with a sud
den Impulse Shirley Inld her hand on
his nnn his left arm, "Ilrycol" she
murmured,
Ho lifted her hand gently from his
''forearm, lod her to the front of tho
?iocomotlve, nnd held her linnd up to

Author of "Cappy ivioks"
And he left her standing, pale of
face and trembling, In the white glnre
of the headlight.
He walked to his car and climbed
Into If. Ogllvy rcmnlned merely long,
enough to give orders to tlio foreman
to gather up the tools, store them 'In
the machine-shop of Cardigan's mill,
and dismiss his gang; then he, too, en
tered the automobile, and at n word
from Ilryce, the car slid noiselessly
away Into the darkness. Hie track
cutting crew departed a few minutes
later, and when Shirley found herself
alone with her uncle, the tumult In
her heart gave way to the tears she
could no longer repress. Pennington
stood by, watching, her curiously,
coldly.
Presently Shirley mastered her
emotion and glanced toward him.
"Well, my dear?" he queried.
"I I tlilnlt I had better go home,"
she said without spirit.
"I think so, too," he answered. "Oct
Into tho mayor's flivver, my dear, and
I'll drive you. And perhaps the least
said about this affair the better, Shir
ley, There are many thliigs that you
do not understand and which cannot
be elucidated by discussion."
"I can understand nit attempt at as
sassination, Uncle Seth."
That blackguard Minorca M should
have known better than to put him on
surb. n Job. I told him to lijuff and
threaten; Cardigan, I know, would
realize the grudge the Illack Minorca
has against him, and for that reason
Pllgured the greaser was the only man
who could bluff li 1 111. While I gave
him orders to shoot, I told hlnl dis
tinctly not to lilt nnybody. Clood Lord,
Shirley, surely you do not think I
would wink at a murder 1"
"I do," she answered passionately.
"With Ilryce Cardigan out of the way
you would have 11 clear field before
you "
"Oh, my dear, my denr 1 Surely you
do not realize whnt you are saying.
You are beside yourself, Shirley.
Picase please do not wound me so
so horribly. I am surrounded by ene-
mlos the most Implacable enemies.
They force me to light the devil with
tire and here you are, giving them aid
ami comfort."
"I want you to defeat Ilryce Cardi
gan, If you can do It fairly."
'At another time and In a calmer
mood we will discuss that villain,"- he
said authoritatively. ''Get Into the enr,
and we will go home. Tfiero Is noth
ing more to be done tonight."
'Your sophistry does not niter my
opinion," she replied llrmly. "How
ever, as you say, this Is neither tho
time nor the place to discuss It."
They drove home In silence. Shirley
went at once to her room. For the
Colonel, however, the night's work had
scarcely begun. The Instant he heard
the door to his niece's room shut, he
went to tho telephono and called up
tho Lagunu Grande roundhouse. Sex
ton, his manager, answered.
"Have you sent tho switch engine to
the woods for Itondeau and his men?"
".lust left."
"Clood I Now, then, Sexton, listen to
me: as you Know, tins ram or tjaruj
gnu's lias developed so suddenly I am
more or less taken by surprise and
hnve had no time to prepare the kind
of counter-attack that will be most ef
fectlve. However, with the crossing
blocked, I gain time In which to organ
Ize only there must ho no weak point
In the organization. In order to Insure
that, I am proceeding to San Fran
Cisco tonight by motor, via the coast
road. I will nri'lvo Into tomorrow
night, and early Saturday morning I
will uppenr In the United States dis
trict court with our attorneys and Illo

temporarily restraining the N. C. O
from cutting our tracks.
I will have to make an atudavlt to
support the complaint, so I had better
bo.Tohnny-oii-the-spot to do It, rather
than risk the delay of tanking the ntll-
davit tomorrow morning here and for
wardlng It by mail to our attorneys.
"The judge will sign a restraining
order, roiurname in rrom ten to tiurty
dnys I'll try for thirty, becnuso that
will knock out tho N. C. O.'s temporary
franchise and after I havo obtained
tho restraining order, I will havo tho
United States' marshal telegraph It toT
Ogllvy nnd Cardigan!"
"Ilullyl" cflod Sexton heartily.
That will tlx their clock."
"In the meantime," Pennington con
tinued, "logs will he glutting our land

"Yes, sir."
"I'll be hack Sunday forenoon. Good-
by."
Hq hung up, wont to his chauffeur's
quarters over tho garage, and routed
tho mnn out of bed. Then he returned
ouletly to bin room, dressed and
of the GIANTS
packed bag for his Journey, left a
brief note for Shirley notifying her of
his departure, and started 011 his two
hundred and fifty-mile trip over the
mountains to the south. As bis car
sped through sleeping Sequoia and
gained the open country, the Colonel's
heart thrilled pleasurnhly. Ho held
cards nnd spades, big and little casino,
four aces and the Joker; therefore he
knew he could sweep tho hoard nt his
pleasure. And during his nbsence Shir
ley would have opportiuilty to cool off,
while he would find time to formulate
an argument to lull her suspicions
upon his return.
CHAPTER XVI.
Quite oblivious of her uncle's depar
ture for San Francisco, Shirley lay
awake throughout the remainder of
the night, turning over and over In her
mind the various aspects of the Cardl-gan-Peunlngtou
Imbroglio. Of one
thing she was quite certain; pence
must be declared nt all hazards. She
realized that she had permitted mat
ters to go too far. A revulsion of feel
ing toward her uncle, Induced by the
memory of Ilryce Cardigan's blood on
her white linger tips, convinced the
girl that, at all hazards to her finan
cial future, henceforth she and her
uncle must tread separate paths. She
bad found hlni out at last, and because
In her nature there was. some of his
own Ilxlty of purpose, the resolution
cost her no particular pang.
She had been obsessed of a desire.
rather unusual In her sex, to see a
fight worth while; she had planned to -
permit It to go to a knockout, to use
Ilryce Cardigan's lnnguage, because
she believed Ilryce Cardigan Would be
vanquished and she had desired to-
see him smashed but not beyond re
pair, for her Joy in the conflict was
to He In the task of putting tho pieces
together nfterward I
It was rather u relief, therefore,
when the Imperturbable .Tames handed
her at breakfast the following note:
"Shirley Dear:
"After leaving you last night. I de
cided that In your present frame of
mind my absence for n few days might
tend to n calmer and clearer percep
tion, on your part, of tho necessary
tactics which In a moment of despera
tion, I saw fit, with regret, to pursue
last night. And In the hope that you
will have attained your old attitude
toward mo before my return, I am
leaving, In the motor for San Fran
cisco. Your terrible accusation has
grieved me to such an extent that I do
not feel equal to the task of confront
ing you until, In a more Judicial frame
of mind, you can truly absolve me of
the charge of wishing to do away with
young Cardigan.
"Your affectionate
"UNCLE SKTH."
Shirley's Hp curled. With a rarer,
keener Intuition than she had hitherto
manifested, she sensed the hypocrisy
between the lines; she was not de
ceived. "He has gone to San Francisco for
more ammunition," she soliloquized,
"Very well, unkle-dunk! While
you're nway, I shall manufacture 11
few bombs myself."
After breakfast she left the house
and walked to the Intersection of II
with Water street. Jules Rondeau and
his crew of lumberjnctis were there,
and with two policemen guarded tho
crossing
Shirley looked from rtie woods bully
to the locomotive nnd back to Hon
deau.
"Itondeau," she said, "Mr. Cardigan
Is a Iind man to light. You fought him
once. Are you going to do it again?"
Tie nodded.
"lly whose orders?"
"Mr. Sexton, she tell me to do it."
"Well, Itoudenu, some day I'll bo
boss of Lagunu Grande and there'll be
no more fighting," she replied, and
passed on down 11 street to the otllce
0f tho Cardigan Redwood Lumber
company. Molra McTavlsh looked up
ns she entered
"Where Is he, dear?" Shirley asked.
"I must see him.
"In that otllce, Miss Shirley." Molra
replied, and polntivl to tho door. Shir
ley stepped to the door, knocked, and
then entered. Ilryce Cardigan, seated
at his desk, looked up as she camo In
Ills left arm was In a sling, and ho
looked harassed and dejected
"Don't got up, Ilryce," she said as ho
attempted to rise. "I know you're qulto
exhausted. You look It." She sat
down. "I'm so sorry," she said softly
Ills dull glance brightened, "it
doesn't amount to thnt, Shirley." And
he snapped Ids lingers. "It tWobs a
little and It's stiff nnd sore, so I carry
It in tbe sling. That helps a little,
What did you wnnt to seo 1110 about?"
"I wanted to tell you," said Shirley
"thnt that last njght's nffalr was not
of my making." He smiled coiupas
slnnatcly, "I I couldn't hear to havo
you think I'd break my word and tell
him.
"It never occurred to 1110 thnt you
hail deatt me a hand from the bottom
of tho deck, Shirley. Pleuno don
worry about It. Your undo lias had
two prlvnto detectives watching Ogllvy
ana me.'
Copjright br Feter D. Kyne
Oh I" she breathed, much relieved.
A ghost of the old bantering smile
lighted lier winsome features. "Well,
then," she challenged, "I suppose you
don't hate me."
"On the contrary, I love you." he an
swered. "However, since you must
hnve known this for some time past, I
suppose It Is superfluous to mention
It. Moreover, I haven't the right
yet."
She had cast her eyes down mod-
stly. She raised them now and looked
at him senrclllngly. "I suppose you'll
acknowledge yourself whipped at last,
Ilryce?" she ventured.
"Would it please you to have me
surrender?" He was very serious.
"Indeed It would, Ilryce. I'm tired
of lighting. I want peace. .I'm I'm
frald to let this matter go any fur
ther. I'm truly afraid."
"I think I want peace, too," he an
swered. "I'd be glad to qhlt with
honor. And I'll do It, too, If you can
Induce your uncle to, give mo the kind
of logging contract I want with his
road."
"I couldn't do that, Ilryce. He has
you whipped and lie Is not merciful
to the" fallen. You'll have to sur-

self Whipped at Last, Bryce?"
render unconditionally." Again shu
laid her little hand timidly 'on his
wounded forearm. "Please give up,
Rryce for my sake."
"I suppose I'll have to," he mur
mured sadly. "I dare say you're light,
though ono should never ndniit defeat
until he Is counted out. I suppose,"
he continued bitterly, .'-'your uncle Is
n high feather this morning."
"I don't know, Ilryce. He left In his
motor for San Francisco nbout ono
o'clock this morning?'
For an Instant Ilryce Cardigan
stared nt her; then n slow, mocking

mirth.
"Glorious news, my dear Shirley.

And Ilryce commenced to chuckle.
"Oh, the poor old Colonel," he con
tinued presently, "the dear old pirate I

knowledge defeat! Mj' denr girl, in
tho lnnguago of tho classic, there Is

crossing Sunday morning, and If you
don't believe It, drop around and see
me In action,"
"You mustn't try," protested Shirley
"Itondeau Is there- with his crow
and ho has orders to stop you. He
sides, you can't expect help from tho
police. Uncle Seth has made a deal
with the mnyor. I came prepared to
suggest a compromise, Ilryce," she do
clared, but he Interrupted her with
a wnvo of his hand.
"That for the police and that venal
Mayor Poundstono 1" Ilryce retorted
with another sntip of his lingers. "I'll
rid tho city of them at the fall elec
tlon."
"You can't nfford ne compromise.
You've been telling me I shall never
build tho N. C. O.' becnuso you will
not permit mo to. You're powerless
I tell you. I eluill build It."
"You shan't I" she llred back nt him
nnd a spot of linger glowed In end
chock. "You're the most stubborn
and belligerent mnn I havo eve
known. Sometimes I almost hate
you."
"Come around nt ten tomorrow
morning nnd watch me put In the
crossing watch mo glvo Itondeau and
his gang the rup." Ho reached nv
suddenly, lifted her hnnd, nnd kissed
It. "How I love you, dear little nnbig-
onlst!" ho murmured.
"If you loved me, yon wouldn't op
oose ma" ho nrotested softly. "I tell
s
you again, Ilryce, you mnko It very
hard for me to bo friendly with you."
"I don't wnnt to be friendly with
you. You're driving mo crnzy, Shir
ley. Please run nlong home, or wher
ever you're bound. I've tried to under
stand your peculiar code, but you're
too deep for me ; so let 1110 go my way
to tho devil. George Sen Otter Is out
side asleep In tho touncnu. of the car.
Tell him to drive you wherever you're
going. I suppose you're nfoot today,
for I noticed tlw mayor riding to his
otllce In your sedan this morning."
She tried to took outraged, but for
file life of her she could not take of
fense nt his h.imtness; neither did she
resent a look which she detected In
his eyes, even though It told her he
was lniighlng at her.
"Oh, very well," she replied with
what dignity she could muster. "Have
It your own way. I've tried to warn
you. Thank you for your offer of the
car. I shall he xlad to use It. Uncle
Seth sold my car. to Mnyor Pound-
stone lust night. Mrs. V- admired
It so!"
"Ah! Then It was thnt rnscnlly
Poundstone who told your uncle nbout
the temporary franchise, thus arousing
his suspicions to such nn extent thnt
when he heard his locomotive rum
bling Into town, he smellcd n rat nnd
hurried down to the crossing?"
"Possibly. The Poundstones dined
nt our house last night."
"Pretty hard on you. I should say.
Hut then I suppose you have to play
the game with Uncle Seth. Well,
good morning, Shirley. Sorry to hurry
you away, but you must remember
we're on a strictly business basis
yet; and you mustn't waste my time."
"You're horrid, Ilryce Cardigan."
"You're adorable. Good morning."
"You'll be sorry for this," she
warned him. "Good morning," She
passed out Into the general olllce, vis
ited with Molra about five minutes,
and drove away In the Napier. Bryce
watched her through the window. She
knew ho was watching her. but never
theless she could not forbear turning
round to verify her suspicions. When
she did, he waved his sound arm at
her, and she flushed with vexation.
"God liloss tier!" lie murmured
"She's 'been my ally all along, and I

of Sequoia.
"Oh, hello, Rryce, my boy," Pound

"And you don't cure to get rid of It

"No, si reel"
"Oh, you're mistaken. Mr. Mnyor.

There wns n long, fateful silence.
Then In a slngulnr small, quavering

"I do. Return It to No. 38 Redwood

When Shirley reached homo nt noon

Podndstone had decided the Pound

smiled, and put the car up In the
garage. When she returned to the

calling her on the telephone. So she
called Hryco up nt once.

OATS BEST CROP
Statistics Show Advantages
Over Corn Growing.
Oh Comparatively Cheap Land In
Western Canada Farmers Get Reo
ordYlelde Cost Per Acre Much
4 Less Than Corn.
ITow much more does It cost t
rrow an acre of corn than to grow an
acre of oats? To get n proper com
parison It Ib necessary fo take an Il
lustration from a form on which both
crops are grown successfully. An ex--ample
hns Just been brought to the
writer: attention of (he eotnpnratlvst
cost of growing corn nnd oats on a
Minnesota farm. It Is furnished by
Albert Inmer, a well-known fanner ta
Cottonwood county, Minn., In an nr-
tlclo which appeared In tho Cotton
wood Citizen.
Mr. Inmer says: "I had n curiosity
to know how much It would cost to
raise nn acre of pnts and corn. To
find out I kept account, during the
year, of the tlmo required nnd tha
cash expended to grow the above men
tioned crops." His figures show thnt
It cost him $31.40 to grow nn aero of
corn and $18.13 1-3 to grow an acre, of
oats, or a difference of $13.00 an acr
In favor of oats.
Provided the respective crop yields
are not altogether out of proportion to
tho cost of growing the crop, this
seems to be n good argument In favor
of growing onts. Rut to grow onts
successfully It Is not necessary to nso
$1fl0 or $200 land. In western Canada
some of the best oat-growtng land In
the world can be bought for about $20
an acre. On this land good yields and
a high quality of grain Is ohtalnabte.

In properly prepared land Is n fair
average yield for oats In western Can
ada In a normnl season but yields of
up to 100 bushels,- and even more, to
the acre hnve been frequent In good
years. The quality of oats grown In
western Canada is nttcsted by the fact
that at all the International exhibi
tions for many years past onts grown
In western Canada have been award
ed the leading prizes. There Is on
record oats grown In western Canada
that have weighed as much ns 48
pounds to tho mensured husbel. nnd
the dominion grain Inspector Is author
ity for tho statement that 85 per cent
of the onts examined by him In west

pounds to the mensured bushel. The
standnrd weight for n bushel of onts
Is 34 pounds.
