BeldinR pondered. He did not now
for a moment consider nn accidental
discharge of dynamite. But why had
this blast been set off?. „ The loose
sandy soil had yielded readily to
shovel; there were no rocks; ns far
as construction of a ditch was con
cerned such a blast would have done
more harm than good.
Slowly, with reluctant feet, Beldlng
walked toward a green hollow, where
In a cluster of willows lay the never-
falling spring that his horses loved so
well, and, Indeed, which he loved no
less.
He was Just |n time to see the last
•f the water. It seemed to sink ns In
qalcksand. The nhni>e of the hole had
rhangeo. The tremendous force of
the blast had obstructed or diverted
the underground stream of water.

profane, and now he certainly did not
choose his langusge. Chase turned

way to fury. But something about Held*

smooth voice. That was a singular
change to Beldlng—the dropping In
stantly Into an easy flow of speech.
“You’ve had losses here, and naturally
you’re sore. I don’t blame you. But
you can’t see this thing from my side
of the fence. Business Is business. In
business the best man wins. The law-
upheld those transactions of mine the
honesty of which you questioned. Now
I want to run that main ditch along

Beldlng. his dark gate sweeping bock
from the lane. *
“What! I—I—" atammerod Chasm
“You made your son swear to be a
man and die before he’d hint the thing
to Nell?" went on Beldlng. and his
volca rang louder.
Ben Chase had np answer. The red
left his face. His son slunk- back
against the fence.
“I say you never held thla aecret
over the heads of my wife and her
daughter?" thundered Beldlng.
He had bis answer in the gray face#.
In the lips that fear made mute. Like
a flash Beldlng saw the whole truth of
Mrg.~ Belding’s agony, the reason for
her departure; he saw what had been
driving Nell; and It seemed that all the
dogs of hell were loosed within his
heart. He struck out blindly, instinc
tively in his pain, and the blow sent
Ben Chase staggering into the fence
corner. Then be stretched forth a long
arm and whirled Radford Chase back
beside his father.
“And now, gentlemen," went on fiel
ding, speaking low and with difficulty,
“seeing I’ve turned down your proposi
tion, I suppose you think you've no
more call to keep your mouths shut?"
The elder Chase appeared fascinated
by something he cither saw or felt in
Beldlng. ami his gray face grew grayer.
He put up a shaking hand. Theh Rad
ford Chase, livid and snarling, burst
out: ‘Til talk till I'm Mark In the far*
Ypu can’t stop me!"
“You'll go black In the face, but It
won't be from talking." hissed Beldlng.

he threw It Pp the gun glittered In his

“For God’s sake, you don’t believe

It’a a lie. I know it's a Hr. And I’ve
got to tell Noll this minute. Come ^n
In with me. I want you, Beldlng. Oh,
why didn’t you tell mehooner?"
Beldlng felt himself dragged bf an
Iron arm into the kitting room, opt into
the patio, and across that to where Nell
sat in her door. At sight of them she
gave a little cry, drooped for an In
stant, Aien raised a pale, still face,
with eyes beginning to darken.,
"Dearest, I. know now why you are
not wearing ray mother’s ring,” said
Gale, steadily and low-voiced.
“Dick, I am not worthy," she re
plied, and held out a trembling hand
with the ring lying in the palm.
Swift as light Gale caught her hand
and slipped the ring back upon the
third finger.
“Nell! Look at me. It is your en
gagement ring. . . . Listen. I don’t
believe this—this thing that’s been tor
turing you. I know It’s a lie. I am
absolutely sure your mother will prov#

me, dearest; even If It was true It

She rose swiftly with the passlonatu

with her band oo Dick’s shoulder, her
eyes bright and warm as sunlight, she
showed the rangers what a woman
thought of them and of the Yaqul.
Nell clung to Dick, weeping silently.
Mrs. Gale waa overcome, and Mr. Gale,
very white and quiet, helped her up to
her room.
Early In the afternoon of the next
day Beldlng encountered Dick at the
water bqrrel. »
“Belding, this la river water, and
muddy at that,” said Dick. “Lord
knows I’m not kicking. Tint I’ve
dreamed some of our cool running
spring, and I want a drink from it.”
“Never again, son. The spring’s
gone, faded, sunk, dry as dust.”
“Dry!" Gale slowly straightened.
“We’ve had rains. Tlie river’s full.
The spring our to be overflowing.*
Why Is it dry?’’
"Dick, .seeing you’re interested, I

ently they all settled down to quiet
grazing. How good it was for Belding
to see those white shapes against the
rich background of green I His eyes
glistened. It was a sight he had never
expected to see again. He lingered
there many moments when he wanted
to hurry back to his rangers.
At last he tore himself away from
watching Blanca Diablo and returned
to the house. It was only to find that
he might have spared himself the hur
ry. Jim ■and Ladd were lying on the
beds that had sot held them for so i
may as well tell you that a big charge
of nitroglycerin choked my spring.’’
"Nitroglycerin?’’ echoed Gale. Then
he gave a quick start. “My mind’s
been, on home,_Neil. my family.
The governor la rraay about you. I
didn't have to waste two minutes on
him. Mother used ip the time. She
wanted to know all there was to tell.
She Is proud, yes; but. Nell, I wish
you could have seen how she took tha
—the story about you. Why. ske never
thought of me at all, until sha had
cried over you. Nell, ahe loves yo*

Do you hear that? And listen—she had
me in a corner and, of course, being
my mother, she put on the screws. She
made me promise that we’d, live in the
East half the year. That means Chi
cago, Cape May, New York—you see,
I'm not exactly the lost son any more.
Why, Nell, dear, you’ll have to learn
