CHAPTER VI Continued.
Cautiously bo circled tlio Mack
cabin every nerve tnut for struggle
every senso alert. Ha found nothing to
reward his search whoever tho cow-
ard had been ho had disappeared
nmong tho rocks vanishing completely
In the black night. Tho fellow had not
oven waited to learn tho effect of his
shot. It was not until ho enmo back
to tho open door thnt tho miner
thought of his companion. What had
liccomo of Jose? Could It bo that tho
Mexican was hit? He entered shrink-
ing from the task yet resolute to lenrn
the truth. A black shapeless figure
scarcely dlsccmlblo ns a man lay
huddled beneath the table. Westcott
lienl over It feeling for the heart and
turning fnco upward. There was no
visible mark of tho bullet wound but
tho body was limp tho fnco ghastly In
tho grotesquo dance of the Humes. The
nssassln had not wasted his shot Jose
Salvarl would never see Mexico
again.
Westcott straightened tho body out
crossing tho dead hands and covered
tho fnco with n blnnket stripped from
n bunk. Tho brief burst of Iluine died
down leaving tho room In semi-darkness.
Tho miner was conscious only
of a feeling of dull rage a desire for
revenge. The shot had been clearly
Intended for himself. Tho killing of
Jose had been n mere accident. In all
probability tho murderer had crept
away believing ho had succeeded In his
purpose. If he had lingered long
enough to see anyone emerge from the
hut ho would naturally Imagine tho
survivor to bo tho Mexican Rood!
This very confidence would tend to
throw tho fellow off his guard; he
would have no fear of Jose.
IIo reached beneath the blanket and
drew forth the dead Mexican's revol-
ver slipped tho weapon Into his own
belt opened tho door and went out
closing It tightly behind him. Joo
could IIo there until morning. While
tho darkness lasted ho hail work to do.
Ills purpose settled thero was no hes-
itancy In his movements. Ills was tho
codo of tho West; his methods those
of the desert and the mountains tho
code and method ot n lighting man.
A dim trail rock strewn led to the
spring whero It connected with an ore
road extending down tho valley to
Haskell. Another trail across the spur
shortened the distance to the Ln Itos-
lta shafthousc. Hut Wehtcott chose to
follow none of these lest bo run Into
some nmbusendc. Slowly and silently
cautious to dislodge no rolling stone
and keeping well concealed among tho
rocks he finally descended to the level
of tho shaft feeling confident that his
jiresenco was not dlsco .cd.
lie had no clearly defined plan only
n desire to lenrn exactly what was be-
ing done. The olllce beyond the shaft
was lighted nlthough tho faint glenm
was only dimly revealed along tho
edgo of lowered curtains concealing
tho Interior. However this evidence
that somo one was within served to
nttrnct Westcott's attention and lie
crept nround under the shadow 'of tlio
dump and approached the farther
corner. Ho could perceive now two
"men. on tho hoisting platform and hear
the growl of their voices but without
being able to distinguish speech. He-
volver In hand ho mode tlio round of
tho building to nssuro himself that no
guard had been posted there then
The heavy grcoii curtain extended tn
the sill but was silt In one corner.
With his eye close to this slight open-
ing he gained n partial glimpse ef the
Interior. Thero were three men In the
room and Westcott diew n quick
breath of surprise as hecognlzed the
two faces fronting him Hill Lucy at
the desk n pipe In bin mouth his feet
elevated on n convenient chair nnd
Henton leaning back ngalnst the wall
apparently half asleep with his eyes
closed. Tho third man wus facing
Lacy but concealed by the stovo; he
seemed to lie doing tho tnlklng and
held a paper In his hand resembling n
map. .Suddenly ho rose to his feet nnd
bent over the edge of tho desk und
Westcott knew him Knrlght I
Desperately determined to lenrn
what was being snld the miner thrust
the heavy blnile of his Juckknlfe be-
neath tho lll-flitlug window snhh nnd
succeeded In noiselessly lifting It a
scant half Inch. He bent lower tho
speaker's voice clearly nudlble
through the narrow opening. "There
wns a dead man back Knst wasn't
there?"
"What difference does thnt make?"
"None pnrtlculorly except to nat-
urally Increase the worth of my serv-
ices. I'm not squeamish about stiffs
but I like to know what I nm doing.
What ore you holding on to this other
fellow for?"
Knrlght walked nervously ncrow
tho room chewing nt his cigar only to
come back and face his questioner.
"Well. I suppose I might as well tell
you" he said almost Biivogely. "JTou're
In too deei) already to wlgglo out. We
made rather a mess of It In New York
nnd only n bit of luck helped us
through. Wo had the plans ready for
three months but nothing occurred to
give us a chance. Then all at once
Cavendish got Ids first telegram from
Westcott nnd decided to pull out not
telling anyone where ho wns going. He
employed me to draw the will and told
mo ho planned to lcavo tho city for
some tlmo. As soon ns I could I told
the others over tho phone nnd wo got
busy."
Lacy stared Incredulous.
"And thero hasn't been no klllln'?"
Knrlght shook his bend.
"Not by any of us."
"Then how about that dead mnn In
New York the ono thnt wns burled
for Cavendish? Oh I read about
that. Ileaton showed It to mo In the
pnper."
"That's the whole trouble" Knrlght
answered gravely. "I do not know
who ho was or how ho come there.
All I know Is he wns not Frederick
Cavendish. Hut his being found there
dead In Cavendish's npnrtments nnd
Identified puts us In nn awful hole
If tho rest of this affair should over
becomo known. Do you seo? Tho
charge would bo murder and how nro
wo going to hold tho real Cavendish
Olive nnd not hnve It como out?"
"The other one tlio stilt wasn't
Cavendish?"
"Certnlnly not; you know where
Cavendish Is."
"I never saw Fred Cavendish; I
wouldn't know him from Adam's off-
ox I've got tho fellow Heaton turned
over to me."
"Well bo's tho man; the dead ono
Isn't."
"How do you know?"
"Hecnuse Frederick Cavendish
bought and signed n round-trip ticket
to I.os Angeles and boarded the mid-
night train. My mnn reported thnt to
me and Henton Just had time to catch
the same train before It pulled out.
Isn't that true Ned?"
"Yes It Is and I never left him."
"Hut" Insisted Lacy stubbornly
"did you see the dead one?"
"Yes. I kept away from tho In-
quest but attended the funeral to get
n glance nt his face. It seemed too
strange to bo true. Tho fellow wasn't
Cavendish; I'd swear to thnt but ho
did look enough llko him to fool any-
body who had no suspicions aroused.
Dammit It's spooky the very thought
Of It."
"Hut you saw n difference?"
"Hecnuse I looked for It; I never
would hnve otherwise. Hut anywny
I wns already convinced that ho wns
not the mnn. I nm not sure what I
should have thought If I had met him
nllvo upon the street."
I.ney appeared amused crossing tho
room and expectorating Into tho open
stove.
"You fellows make mo laugh" he
said grimly. "I nm hardly Idiot
enough to bo tnken In by that sort
of old wives' tale. However If that
Is your story stick to It but If you
were to ever tell It In court It would
take n Jury nbout five minutes to bring
In their verdict. Let's get to busi-
ness. You want me to help out In n
sort of accident I presume a fall
over n cliff or tho premature discharge
oflnstlng pow;der; these things are
quite common out here. And to pre-
vent nny stir at this end before you
fellows get. hojd of the stuff you want
mo to call off my working gang nnd
let Westcott alone. Come now speak
up."
"Yes" acknowledged Knrlght "I
don't enro bo much for Westcott but

thrust deep Into his trouser pockets.
Then nfler a few minutes' cogitation
he resumed:
"All right then; wo'll tnko It as It
lies. The only question unsettled. En-
rlght Is what Is nil this worth to
mo?"
CHAPTER VII.
Mlsa La Rue Pays a Call.
Some slight noise caused Westcott
to straighten up and turn partially
around. He had barely time to fling
up ono nrm In tho warding oft of a
blow. Tho next Instant was one of
mad desperate struggle In which he
realized only that he dure not rclnx
his grip on the wrist of Ids unknown
antngonlst. It wns a fierce Intense
grapple every muscle strnlned to the
utmost silent except for the stamping
of feet dendly In purpose.
Twice Westcott drove his clenched
right Into tho shadowed face smash-
ing It the last time so hard the man's
grip relaxed and he went staggering
bnck. With a leap forward the bat-
tle fury on him Westcott closed be-
fore tho other could regnln position.
Again the clenclyd fist struck und tho
fellow went down in the darkness
whirling backward to tho earth and
lay there motionless.
An Instant.' panting brenthless
scarcely yet comprehending what had
occurred tho victor stnrcd at the
huddled figure his arm drawn back.
Then he became aware of excitement
within the sound of voices the tramp
of feet on the floor tho sudden open-
ing of n door. A gleam of light shot
out. revealing tho figures of men.
With one spring he wns across the
shnpeless form on the groundy nnd
had vanished Into the darkness be-
yond. Lacy wns first to reach tho uncon-
scious body stumbling over It in the
black shadow ns ho rushed forward
revolver In hnnd. He cursed rising to
his knees and staring nbout In the
silent darkness.
"There's n man lying here dead
likely. Hring n light. No the fellow
Is alive. Dammit It's Moore. Here
you what happened?"
Tlio fellow groaned opened his eyes
nnd looked nbout dazedly.
"There there wns a fellow at that
window there. I I saw him from be-
low nnd crept up behind but ho
turned nround Just ns I struck."
"He was at that window you say?"
"Yes; kneelln' down llko ho wns
lookln' Into thu room. Oh Lord!"
Lacy crunched over to tho side ot
the shnck and bent down to get a
better view. Ills fingers came In con-
tact with the knife which upheld the
snsh nnd be plucked It out holding It
up Into the beam of light passing
through tho rent In tho torn curtain.
He stnred nt tho curiously carved
bundle Intently.
"That's Jim Westcott's Jnck-knlfe.
He's been listening to nil wo snld.
Now we ore up against It."
"What's thnt?" The question came
from Knrlght. still nt tho corner of

tho house unablo to telf what had
happened.
"Westcott has been hero listening to
our talk. Ho pried up the window
with this knife so he could hear.
Mooro caught him and got knocked
out."
"Ho he heard our talk In In
there" repented tho dazed lawyer his
lips trembling "And has got nwny?
flood heavens! man whero has he
gone? After tho sheriff?"
Lncy stared at him through tho
darkness nnd burst Into a roar of un-
restrained laughter
"Who? Jim Westcott? Tho sher-
iff? Well hardly at this stage of tho
im
style Is different. No sir; Westcott
Isn't nfter nny sheriff. In tlio first
place he lion't nny evidence. Ho
knows a thing or two but he can't
prove It; und If we move fnster than
he does we'll block his game sec?"
"Whut do you mean?"
Lncy leaned fnrwnnl and hissed his
nnswer Into Knrlght's ear.
"I'ut Cavendish where he enn't get
nt hltn. There's no other chnncc. If
Jim Westcott ever finds thnt fellow
nllvo our goose Is cooked. And we've
got the advantage we know where
the mnn Is."
"And Westcott doesn't?"
"Kxnctly but he will know. He'll
comb these hills until he finds the
trail that's Jim Westcott. Come on
back Inside both of you and I'll tell
you my plan."
The door closed behind them shut-
ting out the yellow glow nnd leaving
the hillside black nnd lonely.
Miss Donovnn did not go down to
supper. Henton waited some time In
the olllco his eyes on tho stairs but
she failed to appear and he lncked
the necessary courage to seek her In
her own room. Then Knrlght called
him nnd compelled his attendance.
The nbsencc of the girl wns not caused
from nny lack of appetite as she sub-
sidized the Chlnnman to smuggle her
n supply of food by way of the back
stairs which she nte with decided
relish but sho hnd no dcslro to show
nny nnxlety regarding n meeting with
the newcomers.
Her newspaper experience hnd given
her somo knowledge of human nature
nnd she felt convinced thnt her task
of extracting information would be
greatly simplified If these people
sought her company first. Sho was
nt tho window when some one rapped
nt the door. She nrose to her feet
and took a step or tw forward her
heart beating swifter.
"Come In."
The door opened nnd the light from
the windows revealed Miss La Hue
rpther tastefully attired in green silk
her blond hair fluffed artfully and n
dntnty patch of black court-plaster
ndnrulng ono cheek.
"Pardon me please" tho voice some-
what high-pitched "but they told me
downstairs you were from New York"
"Yes thnt Is my home; won't you
come In?"
"Sure I will. WTiy I wns so lone-
some In this holo I. simply couldn't
stnnd it nny longer. I know your
name; It's Stelln Donovnn well rnlno
! Is Celeste Ln Hue."
"A very prettv name; rather un-
usual. Are you French?"
The other Inughcd crossing her feet
carelessly nnd extracting n cigarette
caso from n hnndbng.
"French? Well I guess not. My
dnd's nnme wns Copley and I an-
nexed this other when t went on tho
stage. It tickles tho Johnnies nnd
sounds better than Sadie Capley. You
liked It yourself."
"It Is better ndnpted to that pur-
pose you ore an nctress then?"
"Well nobody ever snld so. I con
dance nnd sing n bit nnd know how
to wenr clothes. Tell me when were
you In New York?"
"About n month ago."
"Well didn't you seo the Itovuo?"
"Tho last one? Certnlnly."
"That's where I shone second girl
on the right In tho chorus nnd I wns
In tho eccentric dance with Joo
Stearns; some hit what?"
"Yes I remember now; they called
you tho Hed Fairy because of your
ruby ring. Whnt In the world over
brought you out here?"
Celeste laughed n cloud of smoke
curling gracefully above her blondo
hair
"Somo Joke. Isn't It? Well It's no
engagement nt tho Good Luck dance
hull yonder you enn bet on that. Tho
fact Is I've quit tho business nnd am
going to tnko a flyer In raining?"
"Mining? That sounds like money
In these days. They tell mo there Is
no phicer-mlnlng tiny longer nnd that
It requires n fortune to develop. I
wouldn't supposo a chorus girl "
"Oh pshaw!" nnd Miss Ln Ituo
leaned forward a bright glow on each
cheek. "Thero are more wnys of mnk-
lug money In Now York than drawing
n salary. I've caught on to a few
things ln the lost five years. It pays
better to bo Celeste La Hue than It
ever did to be Sadlo Capley. Do you

Miss Donovnn nodded. Her acquaint-
ance with New York fust life supplied
all necessary details ond It wns qultfj
evident this girl had no sense of
fchnme. Instead she wns rather proud
of the success she had nchleved.
"I Imagine you nre right" she ad-
mitted pleasantly. "So you found n
backer? A mining man?"
"Not on your life. "Nono of your
wild west for inc. As soon ns sqmo
business Is straightened out here It's
bnck to Broadway."
"Who Is It?" ventured the other cau-
tiously. "Mr Henton?"
"Ned Henton 1" Miss La Hue's voice
roso to n shriek. "Oh Lord! I should
sny not! Why that fellow nover had
-Then It Is the other?"
"Sure; he's the real thing. Not Bract)
to look nt maybe but ho fairly ooz
the long green. He's n lawyer."
"Oh Indeed." nnd Miss Donovan'"
eyes darkened. Nlitt was Interested
now feeling herself on the verge of
discovery. "From New York?"
"Sure; mnybo you've heard of him?
He knew you ns soon ns Henton men-
tioned your name; he's Patrick Kn-
rlght of Knrlght and Dougherty."
Miss Donovnn's fingers gripped hnrd
on the footboard of the bed her teeth
clinched to keep back n sudden excla-
mation of surprise. This was mors
than she had bargained for yet the
other woman coolly wntchlng. In spite
of her npparent flippancy observed n
change In the girl's manner. Appar-
ently the disclosure mount little.
"Knrlght you say? No I think not.
He claimed to know me? That is
strange. Who did he think I wns?"
Miss La Hue bit her lip. She had
found her mntch evidently but would
strike harder.
"A reporter on tho Stnr. Nnturallyi
we couldn't help wondering what you
&) r
liMl
"There's More Way tf Making Monty
In New York Than Drawing a Sal-
ary." was doing out here. You ore ln ti
newspaper business aren't you?"
"Yes" realizing further concealment
was useless "but on my vacation I
thought I explained all that to Mr. Hen-
ton. I nm not exactly a reporter. I
do feature-stuff."
"Whatever thnt Is."
"Human-Interest stories; anything
unusual ; strange happenings in every-
day life you know."
"Murders nnd and robberies."
"Occasionally If they nre out of th
ordinary." She took n swift breath
and mnde the plunge. "Like the Fred-
crick Cnvendish case do you remem-
ber that?" ;
Miss La Hue stared at her across the
dnrkcnlng room but if sho changed
color the gloom concealed It and her
voice was steady enough.
"No" she said shortly "I never nod
those things. Whnt happened?"
"Oh nothing much. Ho was rich
and wns found dend ln his apartments
nt tho Wnldron evidently killed by a
burglar. The case Is probably forgot-
ten by this time. Let's speak nbout
something else I hnto to talk 6hop."
Miss La Hue stood up and shook oat
her skirt.
"That's what I say; nnd It seems to
me It would be more soclnl If we had
something to drink. You nln't too nlco
to pnrtnko of a cocktail are you?
Ooodl Then we'll have one. What'
the hotelkeepcr's nnme?"
"Tlmmons."
'.'Do you suppose he'd como up If 1
pounded on the floor?"
Miss Donovun slipped oft the bed.
"I don't bellevo he Is in the office.
He went up the street Just before dark.
You light the lamp wlitto I'll see If I
can find the Chinaman out ln the hnll."
She closed tho door behind her
strode noisily down tlio hnll then si-
lently nnd swiftly retraced her steps
nnd stooped silently down to where a
crack yawned In the lower panel. Thnt
same Instnnt n match flared within
tlio room and wns applied to tho wick
of the lamp. Tlio narrow opening gave
only n gllmpso of half the room the
wash-stand the chnlr nnd lower part
of the bed. Sho saw Miss La Ituo drop
the match then open her vnllsc and
go through it swiftly. She found
nothing nnd turned to the wash-stand
drawer. Tho latter was empty and
was Instantly closed again tho girl
staring about the room ns though nt
her wit's end. Suddenly sho disap-
peared along tho edgo of the bed be-
yond the radius of tho crack ln the
door. What wns It she was doing?
Senrchlng tho bed no doubt; seeking
something hidden beneath tho pillow
or mattress.
Stella's feelings lead her
into a trap of the enemy.

"Tho bnlcony

"In the spring a Mr. nnd Mrs. nobln
looked nbout them for their home. 'How

pointing to tho eaves right over tho

"There Is somo one there' snld
Mrs. Hobln 'but sho looks very nlco

"'Ah her volco Is so sweet and so
nice nnd she really seems to bo glnd

"I think It would be a good Idea'
said Mr. nobln.
"So they built their nest under tho
caves right over tho balcony whero
nil day the lady sat most of the tlmo
sewing some of the time reading.
"She would have visitors there too
nnd sometimes she would tell them of
the robins who wero so nearby but
she always saw that no ono frightened
