Speed hitched a line from the prow of the boat to the malamute and al lowed it to run along the shore.' De lighted to be afoot again, Rusty start ed upstream, drawing the boat with him. All they had to do was use an rock oar occasionally to clear shoal The dog had come to a bend in the creek. The canyon was narrowing, and it wasV^ln that they were reach ing the limit of the boat’s draught. They now looked around for a cov;, er^ mooring place. With strange providence, it was denly sagged, falling backward with Rusty again who found the. place to Fallon’s weight clamping his neck to the flqor, and the man’s great fist sledging his f'See and head.

Some of his men started across the floor to his aid, while the crowd still hovered, mute and still, with its eyes on that seemingly lifeless form of Maitland. Out of that silence, a sudden, leap ing voice cut the air like a whip crack. “Back away from him, you huz- .zards, and stay clear of my track! I’m a-headin' through this pack and I sure come loaded!’’ Every eye froze in gaping, para lyzed consternation at the man on the gibbet table. The noose was gone .from his neck; his feet were free; a six-shooter gleamed in each hand and under one arm something else burned with a sizzling baleful sputter. Dy namite! * “Crtwh!”—roared a gun, and one of Soapy’s hanging lamps fell in splint ers. * Speed shifted the stick with - the burning fuse to his mouth, and grip ped it between his_teeth as a second and third gun blast at the lamps plunged the room in half-darkness. Then with his face lit by the, flare of the shortening fuse be leaped to- the floor. The crowd jumped as if dynamite itself had lifted them. They smashed their own exits through the side-walls' in a frenzied rush for the outer air. - Maitland lay alone by the break in the wall. “Fallon had dragged himself away. Returning one gun to his belt. Speed pulled Maitland’s body across the smodth floor to the front entrance. He emerged on the empty landing, a cache the boat. He halted at the foot of a mountafh ravine, down which a thick growth of brush fell into the credk. Between the outer fringe of vegetation and the bank, a concealed tunnel flowed under the brush. The space would have been large enough for two canoes, and it neatly harbored them boat when they had unmasted it. I This discovery did not look like ac cident The place appeared to have been used before. It was possible that "they were picking up a hidden trail, which others had searched for When he served the rashers and hot bread, they sat down to supper with fifty confused pictures of Dalton’s gold prospect staring up at them from the table top. . “Must have been almighty puzzled some time about where that ""gulch or i was,’’ said Speed. ‘H think he found it once, and then couldn’t track it,’’ Pete said vaguely. Maitland noticed the veiled question in Speed’s look at her. “Did Bill tell you that he asked. Pete’s answer seemed reluc tant. "i “Maybe the igloos are a<symbol of* something else,’’ Maitli^ ventured. -J'Then why are they- drawed so clear,’’-'Speed said doubtfully. He gave the thought a more m'ystical turn. “You’d think some jinx was ridin’ Dalton. His hidin’ from ever’ one .because of the gold, and the gold hidin’ from him.’’ Knowing the gambler’s vein of su perstition, Maitland was not alogeth- er astoni.shed to hear him ask her, “That strange figger you seen, Pete, didn’t maybe give you a whisper about Dalton’s reasons for keepin’ his trail so dark?’’ uses electricity only for starting and lighting.

Their interest in what they were about to do was taking on a tense pre cision. “I’ve said the magic was simple,” observed Speed. “Now we’re goin’ to see whether it’s true.” The dog scrambled, up the cleft of 4^- the ravine under tangled brush, Theirtquiet place to wait in range of view was painfully restrict ed,- and they knew ho'W invisible Dal ton’s trail could be. At the head of the ravine, they em erged on a blind, steep-walled gulch. Here Rusty stopped and looked at them expectantly as if it were now their move. ‘ “Doggone,” Speed muttered, and frowned at- the blasted pine which Rusty seemed to have regarded with a little more intention than the stone. The dead tree spread its limbs close to the cliff; one of the high branches almost touched the rock face. — Uncoiling a rope from his belt. Speed made a careful throw at the pine limb—and tightening the rope on it securely, hauled himself up the trunk. He climbed tiH'he reach^ the limb that touched the wall, crawled out on it to the end, and dropped to a le<^. There he gave m shout of dis covery. His pardner swung up the rope he had left dangling, stepped out along the high limb, and joined him. Above the ledge there was a fault in the cHff, a fissure with broken steps that offered an ascent to the summit. It seemed to be one trail of entry into Dakon’s secret range; there might be others. They ^Misted the dog and the Pete was visibly disturbed by the question. She parted her lips as if to answer; then chang^ her mind and shook her head. They did not speak for a while, but sat pondering in the gloom over emp ty plates.

Pete, riding the black mare with a foaming rein, was shoul dering the broncos in to the platform. It was a superb feat of horsemanship. Speed took the “break* as readily as if be had expected it. He dropped hie partner across its hack, and fastened him there. In another instant he de tached the halter line of the second bronco. Mounting, he curbed its plung- close to Pete’s stirrup, while'* he held the dynamite stick away from the mare’s head.
