riders from the Hur Double M reaebed
Ihe raneh and were brought in to Identify
him as the horse thief. The two
were Moloney and Kite ItonfUs, neither
of them friends of the young rustler.
The foreman in particular was a wet
blanket to ids chances.
"You've got the right man all rigfit,"
he >. i . to I'.uck without answering
Flandrau's cool nod of recognition.
''What soft of a reputation bus he

winners for that matter."
As Hack turned to leave the bunkhouse
the boy touched him on the arm.

very low.

Fltindruti shrank from thy cruel
words, ns a schoolboy (Joes from his

It was then that Malonoy tuade si
friend of the young insui for life. He
let a hand drop carelessly on Curly's {
shoulder and looked at him with a I
friendly smile in his eyes, just as if j
he knew that lids was no wolf hut a
dog up against it iiiird.
"I>oo thinks he'll make it sill right."
Hut there were limes when Curly
wondered whether it would make any
dilVerenee to him whether t'ullison not
well or not. Something immediate was
in the air. I'tildii opinion was sifting
down to ;> decision. Most of these men
were up to the average for the milk
of human kindness. They were the
sipiurest citizens in Arizona. Hut Flandrsiti
knew they would siiulT out his
life just the same if they decided it
was Itest. Afterward they might regit
t it. Inn that would not help liiin.

They iicgilii to (plestioll hiiii. at llrst
casually siml carelessly, so it seemed
to t'urly. Hut presently he discerned
a drill in the talk. They were trying
to lind out who laid la-en his purl tiers
in the rustling.
"And I reckon Soapy and Had Kill
left you kids at Saguache to hold the
suek." Hack suggested sympathetically.
Curly grew wary. lie did not intend
to heiray his accomplices. "Wrong
guess. Soapy and Had Hill weren't in
this deal." lie answered easily.
Tlie foreman of lhe Har 1 >ouhle M
interrupted impatiently, tired of trying
to pump out tin- information l?y
linesse. "You've got to speak, Flundi
an. You've got to tell ns who was
engineering this theft. FaderstandV"
The young rustler looked at the
grim frowning face and his heart sank.
"lint with if " or-ili-i-eil I luck
"< ?h. I expect I'll keep that under
my hat," Curly tolil them lightly.
They won- crowded about liini in a
htilf circle, nearly a score of hard
leather-faced plainsmen. Some of
'liein were riders of the Circle C outlit.
Others had ridden over from
neiirhhoriiiK ranches. All of them
plainly meant business.
"Think attain. Curly." advised Sweeney
quietly. "The hoys ain't trilling
about this thine. They mean to tind
out who was in the rustling of the liar
I >oulde M stock."
"Not through me, they won't."
"Thr 'Uu'li you. And rijrht now."
A flo/en times during the evening
t'urlj had crushed down the desire to
hoc for mercy, to cry out desperately
for them to let him oiT. He had kept
telline himself not to show yellow,
that it would not last long. Now the
fear of breaking down slouched from
his -mil. lie rose from the bed and
looked round at the brown faces circled
about him in the shine of the
lamps.
"I'll not tell you a thin#?not a
t hint'.''
He -tood there chalk-fared, his lipo
dry tint lie had to keep moistening
hem Willi the tip of his tongue.
I Mitch had a new rope in his hand
with it loop at one end. He tossed It
over the hoy's bend and drew it taut.
Two or three of the fares in the circle
were almost as bloodless as that of
Mm- prisoner, hut they were set to sot*
tin* think out.
"Will you toll now?" Ttonflls asked.
Curly mot him oyo to oyo. "No."
"I 'uino ahoik. thon."

The rustler flinched.
"Careful, Hunk. Imn't you soe you're

slut rply.
"1 didn't aim to hurt him," Ituok defended
himself.
Cttrly's senses hud never heon more

Sweeney was chew ink tohaooo. Ho
would have that eliow in Ids mouth
after they had Ilnished what they were
jfoing P? do.
"Ain't lie the vainest ever?" some
one whispered.
The rustler heard the words and

"Now look-n-hore, Miss Kate,"

Hut she swept his remonstrance

word. "I won't have it. What are yon
thinking about?"
"Ih 's a lustier. .Miss Kate; belongs
to Snai?y Siiilia's outfit," Sweeney answered
tin- girl.
"<'an yuii prove It?"
"We gut liiin ilouhle cinched.''
"Then let the law put him In prison."
"lie shut yore paw," |tuek reminded
her.
"Is thai why you're doing 11?"
"Ves'in," and "That's why," they
nodded.
I.Ike a Hash she took advantage of
their admission. "Then I've got more
against him than you have, ami I say
turn liiui over to the law,"
Kite pushed forward, rough and
overbearing. "Now see here. We know
what we're doing and we know why
we're doing It. This ain't any business
for a girl In mix in. You go hack
to the house and nurse your father
that this man shut."
"So It,Isn't the kind of business for
a girl." she answered scornfully. "It's
work for a man. isn't It? No. not for
one. For nine?eleven?thirteen?seventeen
big brave strong men to hang
one poor.wounded hoy."
At that an amused laugh rippled
out. It en me from Moloney, lie was
leaning against the door Jamb with his
hands in his poekets. Nobody had 110tleed
him before. He had come In
after the girl. When Curly came to
thilik it over later, if he had been
given three guesses as to who had told
Kate Cullison what was on the program
he would have guessed Maloiiey
each time.
"Now that you've relieved your
mind proper. Miss Cullison, I expect
liny of tile hoys will he glad to escort
von hack to the house," Kite suggested
with an ncid smile.
"What have you got to do with
this?" she Ihiiiied. "Our hoys took
htm. They brought him hen* lis their
prisoner. In> you think we'll let you
enine over Into tills enmity and dictate
everything we do?"
"I've got a notion tueked away that
you're trying to do the dictating your
own self," the Bar I amble M man contradicted.
"I'm not. Hut I won't stand by
while you get these hoys to do murder."
Kite laughed sarcastically. "You
hear your boss, hoys,"
"You've had yore say now. Miss
Kate. I reckon you better say goodnight,"
advised Ituek.
Slip handed Buck and his friends her
compliments In u swift How of feminine
ferocity.
.uninncy jnisr???<i into tin* circle.
"She's dead right, hoys. There's nothing
tr? tills lynching game. lie's only
h kid."
The tide of opinion was shifting.
Those who had heen worked up to the
lynching hy the arguments of Itoiitilft
begun to resent his activity. Klandrau
was their prisoner, wasn't he? No
use going off half-cocked. Some of
them were discovering that they were
not half so anxious to hang him as
they had supposed.
The girl turned to her friends and
neighbors. "I oughtn't to have talked
to you that way, hut you know how
worried I am about dad," she apologized
with a catch in her breath. 'Tin
sure you didn't think or you would
never have done anything to trouble
me more Just now. You know I didn't
half mean it." She looked from one
to another, her eyes shiny with tears.
"I know that no braver or kinder men
live than you. Why, you're my folks.
I've heen brought up among you. And
so you've got to forgive me."
Some said "Sure," others told her to
forget It, and one grass widower drew
a laugh by saying that her little spiel
reminded him of happier days.
"I'm so glad you've changed your
minds. I knew you would when you
thought It over," she told them chattily
and confidentially.
She was taking their assent for
granted. Now she waited and gave
them a chance to chorus their agreement.
None of them spoke except Malone".
Most of them were with her In
sympathy Put none wanted to be first
In giving way.

"Sure. Whatever's right suits me." '
"Well, you know what Is right, don't

"I expect."
"Then you won't hurt this man, our

"I haven't a thing against him If you

"Then you won't hurt him? You

Jake gave In Immediately and the
rest followed like a flock of sheep.
Two or three of the promises came

one individually had pledged himself.
The young man she had saved could
not keep his eyes from her. lie would i

rrom the room.
It was a long time before the bunkhouse
quieted. Curly, faint with weariness,
lay down and tried to sleep His
nrin was paining a good deal and he
Felt feverish. The men of the Clrele
C and their guests sat down and
argued the whole thing over. Hut after
u time tha doctor came In and had
the patient carried to the house. He
was put In a good clean bed and his
arm dressed ngaln.
The doctor brought him good news.
"Cullison Is doing tine. He ought to
make it all right."
Curly thought about the girl who
had fought for his life.
"You'll not let him die, Doc," he
begged.
"He's too tough for that, Luck Cullison
Is."
Presently Doctor Brown gave him a
sleeping powder and left him. Soon
after that Curly fell asleep and
dreamed about a slim dark girl with
fine long-laslied eyes that could be
both tender and ferocious.
