Ken Burney is given the general man- agership ofBradley Bardiii•6 ranch un. the understanding that he rids Bardin of two cattle thieves, Martin Bruce and Miguel Gallegos. Bardin's. daughter, Idyriel,falls in love with Ken. Kon, . with thirty picked and .rained men, meet and defeat Gallegos' force of two hun- dred in El Cajon Bonita. Fie then .mattes arrangements to meet Bruce and his men and the remainder of the Gallegos forces, in the Same place.

He picked up one of the rockets be- side him and thrust the end of it up- ' right between tem bowiders, then turn- ed and fixed hie binocularsopGaIle- gos and his followers. "Get on him, men. Ready! Aim! Fire!" As Gallegos crumpled, Burney touched a match to the fuse of the rocket. Up it soared with a rush, bursting with a prodigious report and unloosing a tiny parachute foul which floated a small Mexican flag. Instantly the two machine guns he and Senor De flare had secreted on their first visit to the valley came into action against the excited and unsuspecting Gallegos force, grouped among the Bruce' dead. At, the same moment. Burney's Wien opened on them and the Second act of the tragedy was on. Three minutes of rapid fire, then Burney sent up another rocket. This time it released a parachute with a small American flag, and in answer to its summons the rurales lode out of the pass in column of two, swept into line and charged down -the valley, (To be continued.) rode to the right and hid himself and party in similar fashion. "Distribute yourselves along the edge of the bush and preferably be- hind bowlders, men," Burney ordered.

Idon 't think him to his bargain, intimating that .he owes an obligation to the Mexican gov- ernmentto carry out his contract, CHAPTER XXX.-(Cent'd.) "That is Bruce's plan. At least, 1 think it is, because it would be my plan if 1 estimated the situation as I think he has. Until tonight he was ind doubt as to which route I would select, but he knows now that I plan toenter from the north. Ile will per- mit me to make a peaceable entry to the pass, then he will enter behind ire. But what he doesn't know is that a tr;iop of rurales-not less than sixty sabres --is going to permit him to - enter unmolested and tben drop in behind him. "Whzt he does know is that there is but one troop of rurales within a radius of two hundred miles of I'.1 Cajon Bonita and that a commanding officer of that troop isn't ,quite feel enough to tangle with the Gallegus forces. Lie just couldn't win, he knows4 it and so do they. Also Bruce realizes' that the Mexican government has adopted an attitude of patient watch- ful waiting as far as Gallegos is con- cerned. Unless he gets unbelievably dirty it will elect to believe he doesn't exist. Also, Bruce knows that my party, fully armed, is going to make an uaoffrcial entry into Mexico To- night, and he thinks I do this because, I desire to keep the -lie{ican govern- ment officials in ignorance of my inev enrea.ts, for if my • party should run into the rurales we would be ar- reeted as illegal entrants, a charge of breaking the neutrality laws would be longed ngainst us; or it night be as- sumed that we were bandits or smug Piers. At any rate we would have no out, took up the slack of his trigger, defer so and off we'd go to a firing pulled a little ahead of his target and squad .:r a filthy 'Mexican peniten- tiary. "Conversely the same conditions ap ply to Bruce and his party.

Slowly the gray light stole over Et Cajon Bonita Fust the hills acroos the valley appeared indistinctly grad- ually little hummocks, small bushes,' tufts o,. grass and cattle became sharply outlined in the foreground. Burney bent a pair of binoculars an the barranca ,own the valley and, made out a man's head upthrust above the bank. A sentry, doubtless. Suddenly two men rode. out of the ).'ass into the valley, where they pulled up and gazed about them. Burney de- cided they constituted Bruce's advance guard; and that they were wandering what had become of the quarry. Fair• ire to heats it evidently disconcerted them for suddenly they wheeled their horses and rode ack into the pass. CHAPTER iXX.I. "Range, Rye hundred. Company, toad!" Burney'; order, relayed down the lino in a low voice, was productive of a faint clicking of bolts .is the cartridges were jammed home in the breeches, then silence again prevaileti. Beads of perspiration came out on Ken Burney's forehead; his hands were wet; he sat behind a rock, with his rifle laid across it, and waited. On the ground beside him lay half a dozen rockets and a box of matches. Suddenly, from within the pass, there came a ripple of rifle tire; within a minu e some fifty horsemen emerged from the pass at a gallop; out in front a man rode on a brown and white pinto horse that Burney readily recon• nized as Rowdy. He euddied the stove of his rifle firmly to his shoulder and lined his sights. on Martin Bruce; then he drew a full breath, let it half fired. Fifty yards from the pass en- trance the man on Rowdy rolled out of his saddle and the horse stopped instantly, faeed around and gazed curiously at the fallen man. But the ratter's comrades did not halt. Flog- ging their horses furiously with their vate grudge on Mexican soil without • quirts they galloped down the valley inter'fe:rnco from the alexic<n gov- ernment, knowing that the survivors can cross back into United States ter- ritory and not be asked embarrassing questions. So that, Your Majesty, is the tactical situation. "What happens after Ken Burney. Martin Bruce and Captain Eliseo Be- naviaes with their respective com- mands find themselves in that peas together ie problematical." • "If I were only young enough to ride in with you!" His Majesty conn - Seined wanly. "You call me king anti a king ou,;ht to lead his troops. I feel like a bewildered mouse. 1 can't go back to El Ranehito tonight. I can't face Muriel, so I'm going to borrow your blankets. Ken, hole up here to- night with the cook and await news of your fate as early as you can send it to me tomorrow. Don't delay -I'll 11s suffering. Son, have you got your house in order against a hasty exit from this vale of tears?" "Yes, sir; I surrendered my horse to Mlartin Bruce this horning and there's a thousand dollars waiting for me in eacrow in the Huachita Nation- al Bank. That, my outfit and my pay cheque constitute my entire estate. I have made you my executor and my father is my sole heir." - "What? Haven't you left some lit- tle remembrance to that girl you're o crazy about?" The king just could not help this little fishing expedition. "Nothing but a memory, sir. And perhaps I flatter myself in thinking that she will even remember nee six months f-om-now." The king winced. His fish had slip- ped off the hook. When Ken Burney and his men rode into the pass at three o'clock next morning they did so at a smart trot. Indeed, the drumming of hoofs on hard earth, the jingle of spurs and bits and the creak of leather would have proclaimef to any one half a mile di tant the newt of his approach. And that. at least one of Martin Bruce's watchful outposts gleaned the news was apparent to Burney when, and when the last of them had sweet by Rowdy and the fallen 1nan, Burney yelled: "Commence firing." An instant after Burney's men had opened the action, Tont Bledsoe's force on the opposite .ite of the valley came into action also. Then suddenly Bur - hey heard a solid crash of musketry -- a single ragged volley -and machine guns commenced to chatter. At a range of six hundred yards the Gallegos force, concealed in the bat- ranca, had opened fire, also on Bruce's force. With four machine guns and a hundred rifles assailing them from the front and thirty-two riflemen, expert riflemen at that range, assailing them from both flanks, the mad rout was stopped almost instantly. Caught in a bunched formation, the first horses to go down spilled those following after them, while a steady stream of bullets spat into the screaming, grunt• ing, neighing, cursing, struggling mass. It was horrible. The frantic cries of the survivors, endeavoring to identify themselves to the Gallegos men, were unintelligible above the noise of battle; their signals were interpreted as a desire to sur render and since it was no part of the. plan of Miguel Gallegos and Martin Bruce to extend quarter that day, their appeals went unheeded. Nor was it any part of Ken Burney's plan. He knew he was engaged in a battle cif extermination; as the Melee riders disengaged themselves from their fallen horses Burney's mon concen- trated their fire on them; three min- utes from the time the Gallegos forees n them nothingmoved in had opened o that stricken field save the woundod horses. If there were wounded Wien they elected to lie still, At his order Burney's men ceased firing; almost .nstantly the fire from Tom Bledsoe's concealed force across the valley ceased also, while from both parties broke wild cheers that carried in the crisp morning air a down to Miguel Gallegos in the barranca.
