Dll'RlNO the remainder of that day Craig Thompson inipress id everybody who knew hlin with the Idea that he was on the point of having one of his dreaded "fits." but If any one of them had stud ied him closely he would have known !»etter, for the expression of his face was childlike in iis sciitleiiess. But hi* loquacity was gone, for he was think ing. lie had volunteered and been ac cepted as the intermediary between son and father, and his Interview with Richard Maxwell had left upon him an impression which he was endeavoring, without success, to define. Lisle had objected to Intermediation, believing the direct way to he the bust. but Craig convinced him that his own way was preferable and had dispatched him on a supjMtsedly IU|M((Ut errand to a herdsman \\ ho had charge of an outly ing bunch of cattle Iticbard Maxwell was a natural mar tintt. Clockwork was not more exact than were the rules of his life, from which he never deviated. Ilis employ ees liked him. but at the same time they feared him. The slightest disobe dience was regarded as a resignation from his employ, and I.lsle was in this r»-si»ect as sulisei vient to him as they were. Maxwell was a handsome mau too. Although his hair and perfectly trained must ache were as white as snow, tin'. wa> not a line upon Ills perfect face I lis eyes were his most remarkable features, for there was within theii depths something so som ber, so threatening, so tierce and so re pellent that strangers instinctively avoided them and then looked again to discover the cause. Rut it was tmdis coveraMe. The more one looked the more obscure seemed the reason for avoidance, for the surface glance upon them, although searching and deep, had nothing in it of those qualities which at tirst repelled. His eyes were undeniably large, and they described a perfect oval. If eyes can be intensely black, his were so. and in hue the long lashes which fringed them and the rather heavy brows that shaded them wen* blacker still. You would not have said that I.isle's eyes were like his father's, but you would have insisted that Richard Max well's eyes were like his son's, with the difference that where the glance of the elder man repelled that of the younger attracted. Lisle Maxwell's training had been all that the heart of a young man could desire, and his father had been his tu tor in everything. Particularly had his instruction Iteen thorough In every branch of knowledge which properly should In-long to young manhood, and Lisle could not remember when any body save bis father had waited upon his wishes—at lenst until he was old enough togo abroad. After that the cowboys Instructed him in riding and lasso throwing. He could ride like an Apache Indian, rope the wildest steer that ever trod the ranges of Nevada, (ihoot from the back of his galloping horse with revolver or rille infinitesi mal articles thrown into the air by his admiring Instructors; he could leap from his horse to the ground and mount again while the creature was upon a mad run and could cast his handkerchief or his hat upon the plain and then, dashing past at tlie topmost Fpeed of his horse, pick it up again; he could catch and mount and successful ly ride the wildest and most untamed horse that ever belonged on Crescent and Cross ranch. There was nothing along those ranges that man could do which he had not been taught to do and to do well, better even than his in structors. and as a proficient in every manly sport—in marksmanship, horse manship ami courage—he was known and admired throughout that wide cir cle which ha had done for Lisle what she rarely does for woman. Muscular develop ment had kept pace with feminine growth, so that as yet there was noth ing about the figure of Richard Mas well's son to suggest that he was not what he appeared to be. I'he sun had browned his naturally olive ti. led skin so that the rich, red blood be neath could only suggest its presence by Imparting a deeper tinge, and his coarse, dark hair, through which glis tened a faint suggestion • 1 burnished copper, was kept half shorn, so that it fell In wavy and rebellious masses be neath the broad brim of his Texas lombrero. She had given !1 is brilliant lyes a certain boldness of expros 11 which docs not belong to women, and %'lu're was a poise about his In ;1 < 1 wlie h find totblng suggestive of tl fem uliio about It. The loose garments in w h he was costumed were ceriainly and yet Imperceptibly different from tlcso of his companions, due in every i stance to suggestions l'r< :a t!:e i';r Who never forgot nor neglecti I ; ay thing that had to do wi;li hi- pi :> •> -■ Llsle's voice was a rich contralto, rather soft for a man, to lie sure, but sutlieiently strong nevertheless. In a drawing room, issuing from the throat of a society belle, it would not have been out of place. There was rcaliy nothing masculine about it. yet it wa - heavy enough for a youth of IN Cr.iig Thompson described it perfectly \ 11 he said that it was "kinder cooing, like a girl's." Craig's Interview with the ranch owner had been short, and when he came away after it was over he v>-i --110 better Informed concerning what the outcome of Lisle's disobeiii. nee would be than he was before it began. The only change that had taken place in the appearance of Richard Maxxvi d since that night 17 years ago when lie had called upou his lawyer with the baby In his arms can be summed tip in the white hair and the bronzed sk;n which time and exposure had impart ed. In all other respects he was the same. He and Thompson we ekn iwn to each other. During the time that Maxwell had spent in Nevada tlicy had often met, so that no introduction «vas necessary. "How are you. Maxwell*:" was Thompson's greeting when tiny met, and they shook hands cordially. "Glad to see you. Thompson." was the rejoinder. "The boys are g King the stock in rather earlier than usual this year, are they not?" "A little. There's more of it to get in. I've got three or fo v thou-ai It. tra. You must have as many." "More, 1 think." "I see you've brought your ki ! a! ng with you this time." sn:«1 The .q n. ramming home a wad of toba •> v.l which he was replenishing i - pipe. "Fine lad that. Maxwell." He did not look up as lie made the re ' mark. If he had, he wonl 1 ' t have I seen the slightest alteration in the ex pression of his companion. Rut Max* well did not immediately answer. When he did. it was to ask a question. "He has arrived, then?" he asked quietly. "Yes; about .*lll hour or two ago. i met him out on the ridge while I was chasing a steer that would have given me a deuce of a run if it hadn't bet m for young Lisle's rope. He said i.e wasn't coming to the ronn ! up. bin 1 had to have sonic help to get that crit ter in. so 1 persuaded him to come along. Then lie volunteered 1 > ride out to a distant bunch of mine, and that's where he is now. I reckon I wish I had a kid like him." "If you see him before I do. x- i! 1 you send him to me?" said Maxwell "Sure. 1 say. Maxwell, have you J messed with anybody vet 7" "No. I shall follow my old custom and mess with my own outfit. I hank you all the same." "Humph!" thought Thompson a h ■ moved away from the presence of Lisle's father. "I'll bet a dozen of the, best 5-year-olds in my bunch that I>k Maxwell Is madder'□ a hornet, only he'll be hanged if he'll show it " Then he mounted his horse and dashed away In the direction that Lisle had tai. -n. They met half a mile outside of th" \ camp. "Say. Lisle," exclaimed Craig v. I. ;i they had pulled up their horses and were walking them along side by side, "how does the old man look when lie's j mad. eh?" "Was he angry, Mr. Thompson'? "Call mi' Craig; it's easier. That's ; what I'm trying to find out. I'll be blamed if I know whethei lie was in; d or pleased. Are you going back if he ' tells you that you've got to?" "Certainly." "Well, that's dutiful. 1 approve of it. I'.ut I wouldn't do it!" "You do not know my father." "Correct. I don't. Rut I know Craig Thompson. Craig and me are reasonably well acquainted, and he : does lots of tilings that I don't approve of. That would be one of 'cm 1 ain't advising you against your father's authority, not a bit of it. Don't got any such Idea Into your head. Say, there's one thing that you might be turning over In your noddle while you are getting ready for the interview. 1 t'H \i ' < 'How arc i/"u, Maxvt.ll?" was Thump gun's greeting ♦his: I managed to give him the Im pression that you hadn't any id ;i of .•lining here; that you were only look ng onto the scene over the ridge when aiy steer came along and that you had >0 help me in; that I asked you to do it. See?" "Thank you; yes." "Well, there he comes. Now you can work the thing out as you thii ; Int. 'jut if you have a row with the old man rou're welcome In my outfit at any aoly minute." He touched his spurs to his horse and rode on, leaving Lisle to meet his la ther alone. "Is this the beginning of cotiti disregard of my wishes, I.isli Richard Maxwell as soon as lie v. as with his son, but without expressing the least sign of anger. "No, sir." "You know that I did not wish you to come here, did you not?" "I did." "I'hat is going against my wishes." "I cannot always be guided by them, sir. The time will come when I will be obliged to decide for myself. 111 ihis one instance 1 have anticipated it. I have seen the camp.l will return home now if you order me to do so." "I wish you to do so. Ido not order it." "Then I will remain. If the sur roundings here will contaminate me, it is better that it should happen In your presence than in your absence." "Very well, you may remain for a day or two at least, with the under standing that if at any time I desire y ai to return you will do so without demur." "< Yrtainly, sir." That was all there was of it, and Craig Thompson, when he heard what had taken place (for Lisle did not re gard it out of place to repeat the con versation to him), was delighted. "Lisle," ho said, "you've got more force and sand behind that pretty girl face of yours than half of the men out yonder. If, now, you could only sprout a hair or two 011 that upper lip of yours, I'd like it. They'll grow, though, after awhile." CHAPTER IV. A LASSO DUEL. iICnARD MAXWELL did not. I however, send his son away, but he did the next best thing j from his standpoint of the circumstances—he kept him constant ly at his side 011 one pretext or another, so that Lisle had very little chance to follow out any inclinations that were original with himself. His father's watchful, restless eyes and keen intel ligence anticipated everything which might have embarrassed his theories or created interrogation points In the mind of the youth, and day after day passed without Incident other than those of such constant occurrence that they had ceased to be noticeable. It was rarely, too, that Craig Thompson found an opportunity to converse with his young friend, for whom he had conceived such a strong and unaccount able liking. One day. when the xvork of sorting and separating was nearly completed, Craig rode over to Maxwell's camp and asked for Lisle, and one of the men having pointed him out, at some dis tance, where he was riding slowly to ward the slope of the mountains, Craig gave chase and soon came up xvlth him. "Say, Lisle," he said as soou as they were side by side, "do you remember Jim Cummings?" "No; I never heard of him," was the reply. "Well, he thinks he has heard of you. 1 thought he had gone east, but he's shown up here, and he's looking for you." "Looking for me? I don't know him. Who is he?" "He's the fellow that worked for me that you winged—the one who said that you were cut out for a girl and all that. Remember now?" "Yes." "lie's minus a bit of one of his ribs, but he's about as good as ever, and he's a bad egg if there ever xvas one. Ile'll hurt you if he gets a chance. That's what I wanted to tell you." "I do not fear him," said Lisle haughtily. "Who said you did? Not 1.1 would not be here preaching toyou If I thought that you were afraid. But 1 want to warn you about this fellow. lie hasn't made any breaks, and he won't, be cause he knows that if I had a handle to take hold of that would prove that lie was looking for you I'd make mince meat of him in no time. He hasn't said anything; not a word; not he, but he stands around and watches you out of the corners of his eyes and grins like a bloody coyote, so that I know that he's up to something. All that 1 want ed to say 011 this matter Is for you to keep your eyes peeled so that he can't get a chance to take you unawares. The games will be coming 011 in a day or so now, and then is when you must have your peepers behind as well as in front of you. The boys like to have the games mixed up with a fight or two, and if Cummings gets a fair chance at you and opens the ball in what these cusses call a gentlemanly way it would not do for me or for Dick Maxwell to take a hand in, for if we did we'd have seven or eight outfits going all at once, and there'd be a graveyard started here that a dozen eastern doctors could not fill in two years. All you've got to do is to keep your 'trinkets' In good working order, so that you can use any of them at short notice. Do you know him by sight?" "Yes that is, I will remember him if I see him." "All right; that's all. I'm going back now." He went away then, and Lisle rode •on, speedily forgetting everything that Craig Thompson had said, for his mind was busy with other problems that had been suggested to it by his sojourn in the Smoky valley and which were des tined to tax to the utmost the explan atory powers of ids father. The day soon came when the work of the round up was completed, and the time for play arrived. There was a broad stretch of level ground near the center of the valley, and that was se lected for the place where exhibitions . * *;kill in horsemanship and the use of various weapons were to take place. The nrst entertainment on the pro gramme was a foot race, and Richard Maxwell xvas requested to measure off the distance to be run. This he de clined to do, whereupon Lisle volun teered to act. His services were ac cepted, and he dismounted from his horse, leaving it in the care of one of BrV / I . ✓ ' "San, Lixh:,'' h S'lfrl, "do you remcmhrr ■Jim ('iiinmiiujxt" his men while he started off alone down that stretch of open ground. Craig Thompson saw him leave his horse and goto the center of the ground, where, after marking the point of beginning, he began to pace the dis tance for the contestants to run. "The fool!" muttered the old ranch man. "If I haven't lost all my judg ment, this is just the chance that .lim <'uniinings will take." Nothing occurred, however, until Lisle had paced the l."iO yards and fac ed about to return. Then, up at the head of the line, a horseman xvas seen to detach himself from the surrounding group, spur his horse into a gallop and dash at full speed .straight toward the solitary ttgurc in rue center or Uie tour nament ground, lit- was bending well forward in his saddle, his right arm was raised above him, coiling and twisting like a long and sinewy ser pent was the loop of his terrible lasso, more feared on the plains as a weapon of offense than all other known imple ments of warfare. Lisle saw and recognized him in stantly, and if he had not the loud shout that went up from the spectators would sufficiently have warned him, for there was not a man there who did not know the meaning of such an act. An old grudge was to be settled. A long standing feud was to come to an cud one way or another. A duel to the death was to be fought in their presence, and, although everybody could see that the advantage was un fairly on one side and that the man cm tlie ground was practically at the mer cy of the other, that was regarded as his own fault, one that he should not have committed while an enemy was near at hand, one with which they could not and would uot interfere. Many of them were aware of the inci dent of the shooting affair between Cummings and Lisle Maxwell, and now they were to witness the final act. The "code of the plains" permitted the man attacked in such a manner to make use of any weapon at his com mand, and the unerring marksmanship of the youth was familiar to every man there. Every one expected to see him pull his revolver and curtail hostilities with a single shot. At the instant when Lisle discovered that he was an object of attack he glanced toward the spot where he had left bis father. lie saw him start for ward as if to run to his assistance, and he saw Craig Thompson, who had hastened to his side as if lie antici pated the move, seize him around the body and hold hiin firmly, and he could imagine what the ranchman said, al though of course he could not hear it "Keep back, Dick; keep back! The kld'll be enough for him, and besides the boys would put a rope around you before you had gone a dozen steps." That was what lie did say, and after ward lie retained his grasp upon Rich ard Maxwell's arm, fearful of what he might do in the excitement that was to come. Lisle smiled, well pleased. He real ized thoroughly the danger of iiis posi tion, but he was not afraid. As he turned his eyes back again toward his antagonist he drew his revolver and raised it, but as he glanced along thu barrel he saw that if he fired there was imminent danger that the bullet might pass through or beyond its objective point and injure one of the spectators who formed the group around his fa ther. he thrust it back again into his belt and drew his knife, smiling when he heard a cheer go up from the crowd in admiration of his coolness and brav ery. Then, plauting his feet wide opart, lie waited. lie knew that if that fatal loop once settled around his shoulders he would be dragged down to certain and horri ble death. Cummings knew it, too, Siul so did the men who looked on. There was a hideous grin of exulta tion on the face of the horseman while he rode slowly toward his intended vic tim. There was no need for haste. The lad could not escape. The loop of the mounted man's rawhide lasso coil ed and twisted, writhed and hissed above and around his head as he ad vanced to the attack, and Lisle stood with upraised knife awaiting him. Twice Cummings rode all the way around him, toying with the lasso and Jeering in an ecstasy of fury, circling to the left and decreasing tho radius with each turn, playing with his in tended victim, and as he circled Lisle continued to face him. never taking his eyes from the hand that held the rope. Then Cummings perceptibly increas ed the speed of his horse, describing the circles still more narrowly. Hiding madly at last, he approached nearet and nearer to his intended victim, the deadly rope never ceasing to writhe and twist above his head, as if it were possessed of life and hatred and was eager to fall upon its prey. Suddenly his arm straightened out, and the loop was released from his grasp. At the same instant Lisle leap ed Into the air. The rope struck him upon the head and fell harmlessly aside, and another die up from the spectators. Cun u ings laughed and dashed away, gathering the lasso quickly for another throw. In a mo ment he was ready, and the circling be gan anew, while Lisle, seemingly as cool as ever, faced him steadily and with unflinching courage. Three times the horseman made the turn. Then Lisle saw him rise in iiis stirrups. The deadly loop left his hand. It seemed to hang in midair over his head in ser pentine curves which changed their forms with every fraction of those per ilous seconds which seemed like hours. Lisle made no further effort to dodge. He knew that such tactics must soon become futile; that ultimately the rope must encircle him. It were better that It should do so now while he was fresh and still master of every faculty. lie remained perfectly still and waited un til the loop was almost upon him, and then, with a quick motion, lie placed his hands in the position that one as sumes when in the act of diving—to gether and directly above his head— and so permitted the coil to encircle him. It fell true and accurately. The horse ridden by Cummings was pulled back upon his haunches, and then, impelled by the cruel spurs and tight rein of its master, it wheeled and leaped away. As the coil tightened around him Lisle managed to seize the rope beyond the knot with his left hand. His right hand still grasped the knife. Then came that awful jerk, he was drag ged from his feet headforemost to the earth. As he fell he succeeded In shortening iiis left arm and reaching out iiis right hand, which had not loos ed its hold upon the knife. The keen edge touched the tightened rawhide, and it parted. Instantly he was upon his feet again. There was blood upon his face, but he did not know It. He turned and ran with all his -peed toward the nearest group of spectators. A howl of derision went up from the mob. It thought that lie was running away. Hut that mob did not know Lisle Maxwell. "Sonn body's horse!" he shouted as he ran. "Lend me a horse and a rope!" A man spurred toward him, dis mounted and thrust the bridle into his grasp. It was Craig Thompson. Hut Lisle did not see him. He only saw the hor | : , ;;ri instant lie was in the saddle \% itli Craig's lasso firmly iu his grasp. lie was shaken and breathless by the i xperience through which lie had just passed, but he was upon equal ground with his antagonist now, anil he gloried in the consciousness of his own superior ability. Something new had av.aliened within him, and he dashed into the arena, eager for the combat. Not half a minute had passed since the cutting of the lasso, and yet Cunimings had found time to tie an other loop and was riding madly back again. The hooting of the crowd changed again t ip, . ' preeedentcd in the experience that others had known of him, but it was true, and when at the close of the second day they arrived at the ranch Lisle remembered with sur prise that he bad never known his fa ther to be so companionable with a stranger before, but in this case he had appeared to find much that was con genial in their tastes. It is possible that his own intense love for Lisle per mitted him more readily to appreciate the good qualities of another who also loved him. It may be that he intui tively foresaw the time when Lisle would need a friend and that he dis covered in Thompson the man whom he would select for that position. Thompson's ranch adjoined Max well's, although o0 miles separated the buildings which the respective owners called home. In that laud of magniti cent distances such an interval of space was trivial, but Richard Max well had always isolated himself from ids neighbors in a way that utterly re pulsed friendly advances, so that lie was known more as a ranch owner than as a man, but now lie volunteered every outward demonstration that he desired to create more friendly rela tions with his nearest neighbor. During the journey to the ranch Lisle's father permitted it to be under stood that he preferred that no refer ence should lie made to the lasso duel. He seemed to have blotted it out of iiis memory as utterly as though it had not occurred. At home the old life was taken up where it had been left off, and with the exception of the presence of a guest— and within the memory of I.isle an in vited guest had never before been a part of the household—it was the same as it had always been. Studies were resumed at the point where they had been abandoned, occupations recom menced where they had broken off, and everything resumed its accustomed routine, for the master of Crescent and Cross never permitted anything to in terfere with the rules of his daily life. Rut the week of Thompson's stay came to an end, and Lisle was surpris ed when lie remembered that during the entire time he had rarely been alone with their guest—never, in fact, except at such times as they passed upon the broad veranda, where tlie old frontiersman loved to sit and smoke and chat with the "kid," interspersing his stories and anecdotes with whole some advice that was always given lu his inimitably blunt and forcible man ner. Lisle was often astonished by the deep learning of the strange man, whose customary disregard of correct English was at once a mixture of as sumption and carelessness. The youth's intuition revealed to him that behind and beneath the rough exterior of his new friend there existed a fund of ten derness and sympathy most profound. He was like a lump of rich quartz— the intrinsic value was all there in cased within the roughest and hardest of substances. Ou the other band Craig also met with surprises which puzzled lihn greatly, although he made no com ment uuless to I.isle In person. One of them earn" during nn evening when lUchard Maxwell was not present. Craig was smoking his pipe on the ve randa, lolling back in one of the com fortable chairs, when he heard ttie pl u no. "That's right, boy," he called out. "I'm in just the mood for some music. Couldn't you sing something for a change?" There was no reply In words, but the melody cli:uiged, and presently a su perb voice, in tender contralto, floated out to him. With increasing power it swelled iuto the pathetic air of Ash er's "Alice" until the clear high notes fcwept out across the starlit plain so sweetly. so purely, so longingly that Craig forgot his pipe, forgot Lisle, for got where 1 • was. forgot everything except a memory that the song con jured up !I is head sank lower and lower up i. his breast, tears stood in his eyes :.u>l splashed unheeded upon his tightly elasped hands, and when the m< !o'ly ceased he did uot move. Lisle left the piano and went out to him, but Craig Thompson wa not aware of his approach until he felt a touch upon his shoulder. Then he started up with a cry as one who lias been rudely awakened from a dream. "Come here, boy,"' he said in a tone that shook with emotion. "1 want to look at y.m. Who taught you that sung? Who gave you that voice? What strange mixture are you?" "Craig," said Lisle in surprise, not heeding the questions, "what is the matter? Are those tears in your eyes tears because 1 sang to you?" "Yes, they're tears. I)o you think that I am ashamed of them? Men shed tears only when they are necessary to keep the heart from bursting. Mine burst long ago, but somehow 1 got it together again, and maybe the cement I used wears a little with time. Any how, that song of yours opened a seam or two in the old wound. That song brings back memories, and memories are p'izin things to have around if they ain't just the sort that a feller wants. Who taught you that song?" "Nobody. I learned It myself. It came with some music that father or dered years ago. He does not like It. I never sing it to him. 1 have not sung it before in a long time. Ido not know why I thought of it tonight." "I on't you see. kid, why my cal lous old heart filled up with tears so that it would have burst if I hadn't shed a few?" "I am sorry, Craig, very sorry, that I selected that song." "Don't you be sorry; be glad. It saved me from one of my fits, for one of 'em has been coming on ever since I have been here." "Shall 1 sing something else for you?" "No; don't sing; don't play. I don't want to get the taste of that one out of my mouth. Sit hero and talk with me. We won't have another evening together for a long time—maybe nev er." "Why do you say that?" "I'm going to light out in the morn ing before that (it comes on. You think I am older than your father, don't you ?" "I should say that you are, by sev eral years." "Well, I reckon 1 am in some ways It conies of having fits, I suppose. tun Dick Maxwell is five years older than I am. He's IS or thereabout, according to iiis say. 1 look about 58. but I'm only 43.
