NINTH INSTALLMENT SYNOPSIS:Ruth Warren, who lived in the East, is willed threeâ€"fourth inâ€" terest in the "Dead Lantern" ranch in Arizona by her only brother who is reported to have met his death while on business in Mexico. Arrivâ€" ing in Arizona with her husband, who has ailing lungs and their emall child, they learn that the ranch is loâ€" cated 85 miles from the nearest railâ€" road. Old Charley ‘Thane, rancher und rura) mail carrier agrees to take them to the "Dead Lantern" gate, 5 miles from the ranch house. As they trudge wearlly through a gulch approachng the ranch house, a voice whispers "Go back! . ... Go back!" At the ranch house they are greeted suspiciously by the gaunt rancher partner, Snavely, and indian Ann, a herculean woman of mixed negro and indian blood. Snavely is difficult to understand but regardless, Ruth takes up the task or trying to adjust their three lives to the ranch and its development. Kenneth, Ruth‘s hus: band, caught in chilling rain conâ€" tracts pneumonia and passes away ! before a doctor arrives. Ruth tries to carry on. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Old Charley took another package from the car with some embarrassâ€" ment. "I had some money left, Mrs. Warren, and I figured I‘d add someâ€" thing to your outft." He paused soâ€" berly. "I think you ought to have thisâ€"never can tell when you‘ll meet up with someâ€"éome varmint or otherâ€"coyotes, anakes, and such." Old Charley had unwrapped two heavy littfe boxes and now ‘took from the aide pocket of the car a large reâ€" volver, "This gun‘s one of mineâ€" she‘s a dandyâ€"I‘d like you to have it, Mrs.,Warren." There was a quiet cincerity in the old . man‘s voice which seemed to tell the girl very clearly that she shonld have the wenâ€" pon. "Why ~â€" thank you â€"Iâ€" heavens! I‘m scured to death of it!" "Here, take it," Ruth took the gun gingerly. "I brought aJong an extra box of shells," said Old.Charley, "and we‘re going to have some target practice right now â€"when you once learn how to handle a gun, and won‘t be scared of itâ€"you‘ll find it a heap of comâ€" fort." "Most everybody in this country wears them," said the old man. "They ain‘t fancy but they‘re good riding clothes." And Ruth did find comfort and a satiifying thrill, when after the fourâ€" teenth consecutive shot she sent a fortyfive bullet through the lid of David‘s hat box at a distance of twenty feet. At about the thirtieth shot she found that she could keep Ruth opened the package and found three pairs of overalle with short jackets to match. There was a bright copper rivet at the beginâ€" ning of each seam, She rolled them up hastily. Old Charley was explaining his purchases: "You see, 1 hunted all over town but 1 didn‘t have no luck with habits like you wanted. 1 could have got one outfit but it didn‘t look like it would last long so I got you these."

He must have reâ€" ceived it. or it would have been reâ€" turned. Almost she wished that she had not been suspicious of Snavely that morning five weeks ago. If she had not taken that second letter to the box herself, while he was off someâ€" where destroying the finst, she could now blame the lack of an anewer on to him and without losing caste with berself write another, But she would write no more letters. Her people were not interested in her; very well, whe could take care of herself. Her pride to!d her that this was bestâ€"she would not have cared to have Old Charley, for example‘ know that she had crfed for help. "Just what kind of a «ituation is that, Dad!" Will was asking, as anâ€" cient Lena bore them over the hill to the south of the gate, "Danged if 1 rightly know," re:â€" plied Old Charley. "I‘d like to ask her some things straight outâ€"butâ€" oh. hell, she knows what she‘s up agnainst and she ain‘t the kind that want(s their private affairs nosed Into." Already, the heavy black gun seemed not a terrifying monster but a powerful friend. "No, [ can see that," repifed Will thoughtfully. Then for an hour Ruth discussed ranching with Old Charley. She eoon found that the son, too, was much in‘ terested in the subject. Ruth susâ€" pected that Will Thane had gone to the city to be educated and to make some money, and that having done both his thoughts were turning toâ€" ward the country and the work he had known in boyhood. Several times she saw his eyes fixed on the mountaing or gazing into the valley in the manner of one looking upon good things. her eyes open, and became really inâ€" terested. Already, the heavy black gun seemed not a terrifying monster but a powerfu) friend. Ruth‘s spirite roge. "Well, practice is what does it," reâ€" marked Old Charley; then quickly, "but _I _ wouldn‘t practice much around the home ranch if I was you, Mrs. Warren." He paused and addâ€" ed significantly, "I don‘t know as Jep Snavely would like itâ€"you might hit a horse or something." ~ .JUST BECAUSE Th LABELS ARE A LITTLE SoiltD SHE THINKS TH STuFFf IS NO GoODbâ€" myY GoSH!

You say ther‘s one hundred and fiftyâ€"one dollars in the bank: we could get a couple of Mexicans from that little border townâ€"Palo Verdeâ€"for about four dollars & day. And we have the plow and horses and freano. If the money won‘t be enough we could pay them off with an old cow or two â€"they‘ll do anything for fresh beef, you know." "Well, 1 once knew a man who had lived in this country for more than sixty years and he said that noâ€" body can tell anythng about the weaâ€" ther. So you see we can‘t shape our course very clearly on experience. But we can go ahead as though things were going to be a« they usuâ€" ally are. And of course we must have the ponds deepened anywayâ€"even it we don‘t try to get more cattle just now." Snavely looked at the girl curi ously. Ruth hardly paused for breath. "So let‘s get at the ponds right away. Now, then, as we‘re going to have pienty of water we should get some more stock. I should think it might hbe possible to get a few headâ€"say about two hundred more cows and at least twenty young bulls by swingâ€" ing some sort of a dicker with come other rancherâ€"â€"* "Mr. Sngvely, I mentioned at our last talk that I was going to write for capital to improve the ranchâ€"I â€"Iit seems that there will be some delay." _ â€" Snavely smiled sourly. "But," continued the girl hastily. "I am sure that we can do a good deal without capital,. First, I underâ€" stand that the rains are expected about the end of Juneâ€"leas than a month away. You say that the big watering pond will carry us over, but that all the feed will soon be gone in that neighborhood. If we do have rains won‘t the other ponds which are down in the meadow lands be "Then the thing to do is to have them deepened before the rain comes, don‘t you think go?" "Yeah", interrupted the father, "a very cute kid." . Ruth awaited the opportunity and finally cornered Snavely late one afternoon by the door of the saddle shed. Snavely whook his head. "Since you come we‘ll have to spend that méney for more grub." c "Oh, I hardly think eo. I‘ve taken an inventory of what we have and I think it will last a long timeâ€"if we don‘t hold any banquets or celebraâ€" tions," ahe «miled. Snavely looked at the girl curi "Maybe," he shrugged, "but they ain‘t deep enough to hold it longâ€"" ‘"Where are you goin‘ to git the money fer diggin‘ ‘em out?" "I‘m doing my best. Mr. Snavelyâ€" this ranch is going to be a real ranch some day and we‘ve got to think of everything and take advanâ€" tage "Cute kid," remarked Old Charley a moment later. "I‘ll say.so! How in the world she ever got out hereâ€"" Will paused abâ€" ruptly. "He is a nicg little fellow, all right, and what a kick he got out of that hat! He seeme to be taking to the lifeâ€"" filled ?" Snavely did not speak for nearly a minute. At last he said slowly. "You‘re gittin‘ onto a heap o‘ things, ain‘t youn ?" «* "Well. while you‘re thinking everything.

You are my partner and it‘s one partner‘s duâ€" ty to help the other. I don‘t pretend to know much about this work, but I know a great deal more than I did, and I do understand the general prinâ€" ciple that to make improvements we have got to begin. If you feel that we should go on as you always have, then you and I do not agree and we shall have to ask for outside help to uettle our difficulties. I have tertain rights on this ranch and I shall go into town next mail day and consult a lawyer, I wanted to go in with you and get some legal advice in the first placeâ€"" "Now â€" listen â€" here, . pardnerâ€"" Snavely walked toward her. His atâ€" titude had changed. "I‘ve already told you there‘s no legal advice needâ€" ed. Your will is all straight an‘ I reâ€" cognize it. That‘s all that‘s necesâ€" earyâ€"if you didn‘t have no right here"â€"his voice rose shrllyâ€""if you didn‘tâ€""He choked back his words and a moment was silent, thenâ€" "Look here, we can‘t stand no fussin‘. I‘m a _ queer one all right, you prob‘bly : thinkâ€"and you‘re prob‘bly right, but I‘m your pardner and we‘ve got to work together. The obâ€" jections I had to your schemes awhile back was just because they didn‘t seem possible. But I see now that you‘re right in one thing, We got to get a start on improvement. All right, let‘s tackle them represas. I‘ll go to Palo Verde toâ€"morrow and by next day I‘ll be back with a couâ€" ple of cholos. And we can start in. Mrs. Warren, [ aim to do anything I can to help fix up the ranchâ€"only, it‘s got to be possibleâ€"it‘s just got to be possible." In spite of Ruth‘s victory her knees could hardly support her on the way back to the adobe ruin. Somehow the fact that Snavely had agreed to do as she wished made her fear him the more. He knew now that she was not going to be easy to handle; what would he do next? She did not beleve that he would mildly subside. As David was outside earnestly enâ€" deavoring to rope a rooster with a miniature riata, Ruth unlocked her trunk and took a comforting peek at the ugly black revolver. She wished she could practice more with it . . . After a time she relocked the trunk and moved her chair near the doorâ€" way where she could keep an eye on David, and wutch the sunset shaâ€" dows steal past her into the distant valley. The old oak tree spread its protecting armsâ€"a faithful, gentle guardian . . . "Do you figger you can tell me how to run this ranch ?" At Fort Erie on July 7th, Magiâ€" strate W. T. Malkin, dismissed a charge of reckless driving against K. Martin of Niagara Falls, Ont., bus driver. The charge was brought by George Weles of Kitchener, followâ€" ing aâ€"crash on May 2nd when Welss Ruth was white, but she angwered evenly as she turned to walk away, "Very well, Mr. Snavely. There‘s only one thing for me to do now." Snavely let her take perhaps a dozen steps, then, "What did you say? What‘s that you‘re aimin‘ to do ?" Before a month‘s out you‘ll come beggin‘ me fer train fare out of here. If you‘re so set on improvin‘ things, fly to it‘"â€"he thrust his face forâ€" wardâ€"‘"but don‘t figger none on me; this ranch is like I want it now!"
