Fif ty feet abore the arroyo bed It toee, forming a waterfall during ’ tains, and below was a great aaady hole. The bottom of this hole was damp. Bath could hardly conceal her disappointment—she bad pictur ed a plesMant little pool, and the : bottom of the sandy hole looked as though some one had spilled half a pall of water there, twen ty minutes before. But Will was boyishly enthusiastic. "There she Is! Believe me. when you find a damp place in this weather, -ttere’e something doing." When Alfredo and Don Pran- aisco came with the shovels. Will directed them in excellent Span ish to dig from the damp spot toward the wall. In less than a half hour there was real water at the bottom of the trench. She and Will returned to the ham for a rock drill and a sledge —the plan was to drill through Bte dike into the water beyond. Will and Alfredo took turns at swinging the sledge, while Don Francisco held the drill, giving It a quarter turn at each stroke. The drill sank In steadily; at eiTery blow a little more water trickled around the inch-thick bar of steel. Snavely, Ann and the Mexican woman came to look. Pour hours after they had be gan, the sound of sledge on^drill began to change subtly—“It's coming! We’re almost—through.’ Will’s voice was tense with'ei- eitement as he swung - the sledge. A few more strokes, and the drill shot in six inches at one blow. No one made a sound. Will dropped the sledge. Every eye was on Don Francisco. With both bands he worked the drill up and down to loosen it. Slowly he pulled it out and as it came, wat er spurted around it in ever in creasing volume. The drill was •nt and a muddy spout of water ■truck the sand three feet away from the wall. Every one, from David to old Bon Francisco, made some kind •f noise. Ruth hugged the first person at hand, until she discov ered it was Snavely. And even Snavely shook hands all around —real running water was too much for the old cattleman. No one slept that night. They kept the fire going for its light ■nd sat around watching the epont of water. Every n.iw and then, some one took a drink, and although the wafer was still quite muddy, declared that it was probably the purest water in Arlxona. With the proper troughs it would water every head of ■lock the Dead Lantern could ever carry and. incidentally, al- ttiongh Ruth did not suspect it, the value of the ranch had in creased by some thousands of dollars since that last blow from “A Little Neater— A Little Better” THA’TS THE WAY WE DO THE JOB Right-Way Shoe a G.

By daytixht a tomporary dam had been thrown acroea tha ar royo for tbe^ use of the cattle nn- til the water could be pipped to a permanent pond. Snavely had actnally helped to build this dam. But when the cattle had been driven up the arroyo and every one was going back to the ranch house for breakfast, Ruth sensed that Snavely was rapidly return ing to normal. After the midday meal Ruth and David accompanied Will to the mall box to meet Old Char ley. Before they left, however, Will had to take a last look at the water. Not a single cow was at the pond; they had all had their water and' now were scat tered over the pasture. On the way to the mall box the three friends talked incess antly. David rode with Will. It was when Old Charley’s car appeared far down the highway that Will said, “I’m planning a little joke on Dad'. He is always kidding me about leaving the ranch for the city—I know that he hopes some day I’ll come home for good and help him raise cattle. ’There’s a piece of homestead property which joins our place on the east and yours on the south—he’s always hint ing that I ought to take it up before any one else does. He watches that section like a hawk. Well, here’s the point. I’m not saying anything to Dad, hut this trio I'm going to pull stakes at Los Angeles and come home for good. I expect to get back about a month before the round up and I’m not going to say a word but just sneak out to that homestead and put up a shack and live there. It’ll be a kick when he discovers somebody squatting on that choice section of his.” The girl laughed. "Be careful he doesn’t take a shot at you be fore he discovers who it is.” Old Charley honked the horn as he sighted the three by the mail box. Ruth turned to Will. ‘‘It seems dreadfully inadequate to say “thank you’—■!—’’ “Good Lord! I’ve had the time of my life!” Ruth looked at his feet. “I shall remenber that the Dead Lantern owes you a pair of shoes, not to mention trousers—why didn’t I think to lend you some overalls?" He laughed, as Old Charley turned from the road. “All right, Ruth, but I’ll be needing boots instead of shoes the next time you see me." Within a week after the de velopment of the water the sum mer rains had begun. Almost every afternoon brought a brief shower: great, cold, pelting drops making the desert sparkle, redolent with the perfume of greasewood. Usually, after these showers, the sun shone for a time before it slipped behind the mountains—as though to remind the desert that it still was mast er. There had been two severe storms which turned the arroyos and gullies into angry little riv ers. AH the deep ponds were full to overflowing and water lay in small natural pools in many of the deeper canons. The cattle were everywhere— there was so much water that they could go where the feed was choicest and they made good use jof the opportunity. The remains I of the cottonseed meal was stored * in the barn and the band of bot tle-fed' calves was scattered. Al ready. every animal on the place seemed two-thirds fat. The Mexicans worked on their house—Ruth knew that they were happy and would stay in definitely. Every evening for an hour after supper she and the girl Magda had’ lessons in San- ish and English. When the hour was V'p Ruth went back to the rarch house, for, as the end of ■the lesson approached. Alfredo always picked up his guitar and stood near the door, his eye on the freshno outside. Snavely seemed to have chang ed subtly since the discovery of the water. Ruth sensed that he had begun to regard her in a different way; it was as if she had proved that she was not to be frightened, she could no long er be treated as a child. She had shown him that she knew some thing about ranching; and, since the drouth was safely past, that she stood a chance of meeting; her note. But the girl knew that Snavely was far from becoming reconciled to her presence on the ranch; he hated her and he hat ed the Mexicans. Another thing about this strange man had come to her notice; he seemed to be looking at the old well whenever, he was near the ranch honse. Rath had never seen him go there since he had bnilt the board fence around it: bat many times she had ktobed him oominf n9 ilMli^th' from tto ham with hB na^imed [•yea on the clomp of boehM by the 'woodpile. There was aai^ riding to do,- ie there alwaj^ is af^ the sum mer -rains.'’ Rath was ao busy that •she still had five hooks to read of the half doxen Will had sent her. Each morning she rode out with Don Francisco and Alfredo, often accompanied by David. Every fifth day she carried a slip of paper with numbers from one to twenty-two and rode un til she had checked all of the bulls. The white numbers on their sides were still glaringly conspicuous —- sometimes she could check six or seven animals all within a mile as she looked carefully from a hilltop. She still considered her system of mark ing very fine. , The summer rains, having been unusually generous, had gradu ally ceased except for an occas ional thunderstorm which hur ried over the San Jorge Valley. On the Dead Lantern the natural surface water In ravine and can on was fast disappearing and the cattle were drifting to the neigh borhood of the ponds. Late one afternoon Ruth and Alfredo were returning from the south pasture driving a poor- grade heifer. The heifer was to be butchered and It Is axiomatic among cattle owners that only the oft-color, the dish-faced, the knock-kneed, and the sway-back ed shall be served at the family board. When they were crossing the last deep ravine before reaching the ranch house, Ruth rode to ward the mountains, leaving Al fredo to bring In the heifer alone. There had been water in a pool farther up the ravine the week before and Ruth wished to look at the cattle which would remain In the vicinity as long as the water lasted. She met few cattle In the ravine and upon arriving at the pool found it empty. As she rode out of the ravine along the side of an entering gully and neared the upper level, her eye caught a white object hidden among the undergrowth in the gully bottom farther ahead. Pres ently she saw that the object was a numeral six painted upon the red-brown side of a bull. The animal appeared to he lying stretched out, and even though she could see little distinctly through the clumps of catclaw and ocatillo, Ruth felt with a quick tightening at her throat that the bull’s position was un natural. Dismounting, she half walked, half slid, to the bottom of the gully and picked her way toward the bull. As she approach ed. half a dozen great buzzards flapped into the air on reluctant wings. The next morning she and the two Mexicans returned to dis cover if possible why Number Six had died. Don Francisco and Al fredo held a long consultation together but could come to no definite conclusion—some sick ness such as comes to the strong est of things. As the three com panions rode on. the black buz zards slowly circled Into the gully. Suddenly Alfredo pointed southward. A group of buzzards were wheeling low above an oak tree which rose from the en trance of a gully In the opposite bank of the ravine. By noon, five more dead ani mals had been found within a radius of a mile. Ruth, half sick with anxiety, rode back to the ranch house for Snavely who had remained at the corals shoe ing horses. The old cattleman listened to what she had to say, then shrugg ed. "You’re liable to find a dead cow or two most any time--too bad about the bull, but they’ll die just the same as anything else." “But we’ve found six altogeth er—all recently dead!” Snavely grew more attentive. “Six—five besides the bull?” “Yes.” “Well, now, that don’t look so good. Here, I'll just saddle up an’ have a look.” He shook his head after he had studied' the carcass of Number Six. The buzzards had eaten very little, but they did not go far away. “I don’t know just what to make of It—maybe if we could find a fresher one. Still, It ’ ain’t black leg, anybody could tell that. Don’t look like he’d been hurt in no fight, neither.’’ “■Mr. Snavely,” said Ruth as they rode toward the oak tree where several b'uzzards stood or walked about, “you will have to be going Into town for supplies soon anyway—^why not go to morrow and send out a doctor— a veterlnaryf’’ (Continued next week) uiBf Mary Porter jaelcsoi^and Btr. 0.

In 1770, one Nichola Cugnot, in Prance, built two steam carriages. The most important early credit In power-propelled vehicles must go to Walter Hancock, an Eng lishman who in 1824 to 1836, worked at this problem. In 1884 came the first gas engine of Gott- lief Daimler. And in 1886 Carl Benz produced a small gas engine which was applied as a motor power to wheels. What is really our gasoline power automobile, then, can be considered as dating from Daimler production in 1884. TO ANNOUNCE DECISION Asheville, Oct. 24.—The Pev.
