Arrivâ€" ing in Arizona with her husband who bas alling lungs and their small child, they hear that the rauch is loâ€" cated 85 miles from the nearest railâ€" road,. Old Charley Thane, rancher and rural mail carrier agrees to take them to the "Dead Lantern" gate, 5 miles from the ranch house. As they trudge wearily through a gulch apâ€" proaching the ranch house, a voice whispers "Go back! . . . Go back!" At the ranch Aguse theéy are greeted suspiciously ‘b;l the gaunt rancher partner, Snavely, and Indian A’u’n, A hprculean â€" woman of mixed pegro and indian blood. Snavely is diffiâ€" cult to understand but regardless, Ruth takes up the task of trying to adjust their three lives to the ranch and _ its _ development. Kenneth, Ruth‘s husband, caught in chilling rain contracts pneumonia and passes away before a doctor arrives. Ruth trics to carry on. She is not encour aged by Snavely in plans to try and stock the ranch or improve it. She writes to her father in the East askâ€" ing a loan with which to buy cattle. She receives no reply. Will Thane comes home to visit his father . . . and Ruth meets him. A rancher neurby decides to retire and offers to sell Ruth and Snavely his liveâ€" stock on credit. Snavely tries to balk the deal but Ruth buys to the limit of her threeâ€"quarter interest in Dead Lantern ranch The day came when Ruth, A in, and David set out to oblain some Mexicans. She had told Snavely that she had wanted to go, herself, beâ€" cause she had never seen the town of Palo Verde, This was partly true, but she felt that he knew her real reason: she wanted to be sure to get some â€" Mexicans. He refused to go with her and «he commandeered Ann for an interpreter. She hoped David could stand the rideâ€" â€"it would be twenty miles there and back.

They had reached the highway and were perhaps i mile south of the gute when they met a covered wagon, wccompanied by a horseman. A lean old Mexican with white mustachios and a wispy goatee, drove the team. Beside him sat a girl of eighteen, whoseâ€"beantiful. fawnâ€"like eyes. left tle figure of the young horseman, as tuth and Ann came nearer, Anmn spoke quietly to Ruth, "I think we better ask them people." "Yos. do." "Bhenos . dias, Senor," Ann ad the replied to the old man and continued to talk for some time.

Ruth saw that she spoke Spanish more naturally than English,. Finally, she nodded toward Ruth and awept out her arm to indicate the western mountains. The old man was silent for a time after she had finished. He spoke a short sentence to the young horsemun. ‘The young man smiled, whrugged his shoulders and said a word or two, his eyes on the girl. The old man scemed undecided. He asked a few questions of Aun, and after her replies: fell into: anâ€" young mustache and drew a little closer to the girl‘s side of the wagon. The girl caught her black mantilla awbout her throat with a dainty ivory hand, her large eyes lowered to the small tips of her toes which rested on the footboard under a voluminous blue skirt. The old man scemed undecided. He asked a few questions of Aun, and after her replies: fell into: anâ€" other silence. The conversation was resumed and continued pleasantly. Suddenly Ann turned to Ruth. "They‘ll come. We pay them fifty dollars a month, an‘ give them fresh beef when we butcher. The other things they eat they will buy from us. We can fix up a place in the barn fer ‘em." Apparently everything was settled. She spoke to Ann. "What have you learned about these people?" "I doan‘ know th‘ country they come fromâ€"a ranch ten days over the line. Don Francisco was the maâ€" jor â€" domoâ€"â€"boss of the ranch but there was a death an‘ a changin‘ amongst the owners that he didn‘t like, «o he left an‘ come to "th‘ U. S. Alfredo was workin‘ at the ranch an‘ ‘(‘ume wlong on account of the girl. They ought to know cattle work." They were entaring the foothills four miles beyond the ranch gate when the old man drew his horses to a stop. Ruth had noticed for some time that he was imtently studying the mountains before him. He turned to Aun and asked in his soft, polite Spanish, "Are these low mountains not named with the name of the cwolf ?" "Buenos dias, Senoras," he replied in a voice which was mellowed gra. ciousness. "I have heard that onee they were culled s0," replied Ann, "Ah‘" Ann waited a moment but he did not continue . Thoughtfully, his eyer seanned the mountain. "W is3 shouldn‘t they be named for a wolt?" she asked. "Al â€" these mountains, but have | not The vol mye cano with ef_I Iave true Ann spole heard about he‘ll go on." "Oh, Ann‘ Think of something to tell him. I want these people â€"1 like them.. Now, Ann, I‘m going to order / youvr _ GavE CHARLIE / THW RRT WHY, I | THROUGHT HE was A \REGU\.AR LADY ‘ KILLER! / i these mountains, but have I heard tales of these mountains?" old man paused again, and there an iunderenrrent of anxiety in his e is he continued "Do I mistake elf, or is there not one. small m where it is eaid a rock speaks in voice of evil. There is a tale ravellers which 1 remember to e heard in my boyhood is it not RLOO C quickly th‘ voied a moment but he did Thoughtfully, his eyes mountain. "W hy be named for a wolt?" to Ruth uth. "Ho‘s doan think you to tell the old man what | told you to tell him; if it‘s wrong to lie about the voice the blame is on me, not you. And I‘m going to ask you never to go through that gulchâ€"we‘ll build the road around itâ€"and no one will ever go through‘ there again!" Ann‘s face was a study. "Wellâ€" nowâ€"" she said slowly. A moment more of thought and the Indian womâ€" an‘s face brightened with relief. "Why, I don‘t see but maybe that‘ll work â€"Gawd, Misa Ruth, 1. wisht you‘d thought of that before!" She turned to the old man and after a few minutes‘ talk he emiled and gathâ€" ered up the reins. . "Aun, we can‘t let them go through! â€" Here, you legd David‘s horse and give Don Francisco mine. Tell him and Alfredo that you want to «how them where we are going to build a road soonâ€"see? Take them around the gulch. I‘ll drive the team through and take David and the girl. I think 1~tan handle her even ifâ€" even if she does think she hears something. â€" Those are my orders, Annt‘ The Indian woman spoke at length to the old man. He did no seem very eager to relinquish his seat on the wagon, but already Don Francisco had placed himsel{ under Ruth‘s vuthority. It was strange and rather nseemly to be employed by a woâ€" man, thought the old man, a beautiâ€" ful American woman, who was so fraâ€" wile and yet had such great strength in her eyes. Ah, these Americanos! What wonders their cities must beâ€" still, it was best to come into this country by way of work with which one was familiar, Ruth drove the wagon with David und Mazda seated beside her. She had never in her life driven a team, but it was not necessary to do other than hold the reins; the horses were content to follow the road, As they neared the brown bowlder, Ruth beâ€" gun talking animatedly to Magda, her smiling lips close to the Mexican wirl« ear. Yet she need not have done «o;â€" there was no whispering yoice in the vicinity of the rock. Snavely was not in «ight when Ruth arrived at the barn where Ann \mul the two Mexicans were waiting. But ten minutes later, as Ruth and and the two Mexicans were waiting. But ten minutes later, as Ruth and her son were on their way to the new arrivals to help them establish ranch house (Ann stayed with the themselves) Snavely rode out of the trail west of the corrals toward Ruth, She stopped to wait for him. "Thinkin‘ of startin‘ a town on the Deadâ€" Lantern®?" heasked without smiling. Ruth â€" laughed. _ "No, we . only brought three. We found them on When next her eyes sought the barn Ann was nearly at the house. ‘The giantess went to the rear and enâ€" tered the kitchen without noticing uth. Ruth had risen to join Ann when she saw the distant figure of Alfredo come out of the barn with a rolled matress on his shoulder, walk to the wagon, and toss it in. Immeâ€" diately behind him came Magda, an olla on her head and a halfâ€"filled sack in her hand. She also placed her load in the wason and returned to the barn. By the time Don Franciseo emerged with two chaire and an armâ€" ful of «maller things, Ruth was well on hor way. "Why are you putting your things Ruth â€" laughed. _ "No, we . only brought three. We found them on the main roadâ€"â€"they‘ve come from Mexico. 1 think they‘ll be good workâ€" ersâ€"â€"they know cattle." "Whats the woman for?" "The girl? Oh. she‘s the older man‘s daughterâ€"I suppose she‘ll just keep house for them." snavely looked at Ruth for a long moment in silence, his alits of eyes glinting jorkily: Suddenly he left her and rode toward the barn, disemountâ€" ing at the saddle shed. When she reached the porch of the ranch house Ruth pansed with her hand on the door, and, changing her mind, seated herself on the rawhide cot who eame out of the karn carrying it copper tub as ede approached. The young man placed the tub in the â€"wagon, regarded. Ruth with a shrug â€" and â€" remained | silent, . his fingers smoothing his mustache. Snavely was efanding just inside the door. "What did.you eay to them?"" deâ€" manded Ruth, "Why are you putting your things in the wagon ?" ahe called to Alfredo ols o K By J. P. McEVOY and J. H. STRIEBEL "Well, I fired them, that‘s what I did! Do you think I‘m goin‘ to have « lyin‘, undependable bunch of trash like that on this place? They tell me they won‘t work an‘ are fixin‘ to leave; then you come down here an‘ they let on they will workâ€"what can you do with people like that?" "Ask her is it not true that she loves Alfreda." > Ruth did not reply, but she went to Magda and taking her arm pointed to the ranch house. "Come, Magda." The Mexican girl‘s eyes questioned her. Ruth emiled and led Magda toâ€" ward the house. The three men folâ€" lowed. At the kitchen door, Ruth turned and addressed Snavely. "You men will have to «tay out here," she «miled. "I want to talk to Magda with Ann‘s helpâ€"it‘s going to be a purely feminine conversation, Bxâ€" cuse us, please." Wsi\u"vé];: took a «tep forward, then stopped. s â€" "Ann," said Ruth when she had led Magda into the kitchen, "ask her in it not true that she loves Alfredo. Don‘t embarrass herâ€"make it just bet ween us girls." But Magda was very much embarâ€" rassed. She drew her mantilla about her face and twisted one foot. But she nodded. "Good! Now, Ann, you tell her that if she and her people stay and are good workmen, that I‘ll help her and Alfredo build a little house, and that I‘ll give them ten acres of land which is not included in the partnerâ€" ship but is part of some that I own. ‘Tell her that she and Alfredo and her father can have this land forâ€" ever. And tell her. that they are working for me, not for Mr. Snavely." Magda was transfixed with joy and embarrassment when Ann ceased to speak. The girl took an uncertain sbep toward Ruth. Suddenly, she curtsied almost to the floor and kissed her hand, as though she were a great queen. "Well." «aid Ann, "I can‘t tell you what she said ‘cause I doan know th‘ fancy words in Englishâ€"anyhow she thinks you‘re powerful good. But she «ays she cain‘t tell Alfredo nothin‘ ‘cause he ain‘t asked her to mary him yet. But she says that whe‘ll see to it that they stay here forever an‘ work much," leave." Before the Mexican girl had ceased to reply. sudden fear filled Ann‘s face. _ The Indian woman did. not translate Magda‘s words; she left the kitchen, crossed the back porch and entered her room. There is a tradition in southern Arizona â€" and â€" northwestern | Mexico that the «ummer raing begin on the Day of San Juanâ€"the twentyâ€"fourth ol June. Especially is this tradition strong in the San Jorge Valley, for it is here that the venerable Ambrosio Vega is said to have kept rain reâ€" cords for six and forty years. The discerning still say they can make out his records scratched in the wdobe â€"just left of the altar nicheâ€" in the ruin which wae once his home.
