' ' ' OOKSTIRATtOS AT LOS I BOLLOW.
Grace) Penroy waited anxiously the return
af her messenger to Btoncfleld. The night
passed without hor com in;, And Grace rose)
early, litUe rested, no anxious was she to be)
nee more on good terms vrito, her lorer.
Ho alarm was felt until lata In the for.
noon, when Once noticed Borneo standing
to the road near the stable whinnying to bo
Admitted.
Captain Btarbright came) sauntering tip
the) walk. lie managed to pas most of hi
time in or about Lone Hollow, but slnoe the
coming of Lura Joyce) ba had made no ad
vance In bis suit for the band of uraos; in
oooeequeno the heiress was letrning to re
gard him with considerable Jess aversion
than formerly.
"Isn't that liomeodown yonder, Captain "
questioned (iraoe, who stood on to veranda
as the Captain came up.
"It looks like Mud Lure's horse, surely,"
returned Captain Htarbrilit, as be glanced
toward the road. "I wonder where bis mi.
tress 1st"
Wbe went to SloueQelil yesterday."
"And rodellomoot"
"Yes."
Captain BUrbright turned on his bed sod
hurried at once to the stable. If be expect
ed to meet Lurs Joyce he was mistaken,
Komeo stood by the road gate whlnneylng
to be admitted. The Captain led the horse
tohisstalL lie noticed that the horse was
saddled, and he wondered at the non-appear-anoe
ot the animal's mistress.
" You did not see Lural"
Grace Pcnroy's face was white as the piit
the question to the Captain on bis return.
I did not'
He twisted his cane and looked thought
. Jut and perhaps a trifle uneasy.
The bone was saddled I"
"Yes."
" Then something has happened to Lun,"
cried Grace, in a distracted voice.
" Don't borrow trouble-"
, " But Borneo It vicious, and I have al
ways feared that be would be the death of
Lura. Iam sure eomothlng terrible has
haDoened." persisted Grace. "Go at once,
Captain btarbright, and look for her. Bura
mon the servants and move quickly. If any
thing has happened I shall never forgive
myself," and Grace wrung ber bands and
looked distressed Indeed.
A vague snsplcton entered the mind of
Captain Btarbright fta be turned away to
obey the orders of tbe mistress of Lone
.Hollow.
" If something hoi happened, it will be a
glad day for me," mused the Captain, a
faint smile lifting the wings ot his tawny
mustache.
He hastened to the stable, saddled one of
Us grays and was soon galloping swiftly
away In the direction of BtoneflokL
Ho one had met or seen tbe girl, and when
the Captain returned to Lone Hollow late in
'the day be brought no news of the missing
gin-
Tbe servant scoured the vicinity without
isocoees. Old Mr. vendible was worm up
i to fever boat, while hi granddaughter was
, nearly crushed with grief.
, H I know something terrible has bap
'pened," declared poor Grace, again aad
lagaln. ' "

bea mighty naeful one for both of you; yes,

Then the old man stamped up ana aown
the porch, thumping bis cane after every
other word In a way that, on another occa
sion, would have been laughable In the ex-v
treme. -
The shades of night came with ao news
of the missing Lura, . Captain Btarbright
felt like congratulating himself. If an ao
cldont had happened It would prove a
lucky circumstance for him.
Be had been only too anxious to have the
determined Hiss Jorce out of bis path, that
he might have no object in the way of the
full aooomplishment of his sohemee. He
hoped that she had really met with an acci
dent that would prevent further Interfer
ence on her part.
"Oh. CftDUin. what shall, what tan we
dot "moaned Grace, appealing to Captain
Btarbright in a way that almost touched bis
hardened heart.
" We can only hope for the best,", be re
turned.
"Do you think we have any reason to
hope!"
He saw that she was anxious lor nun to
spoak words ot cheer, and so he would not
disappoint ber, for the Captain was ex
tremely anxious to gala the good win 01 toe
heiress who bad once snubbed him for bis
hasty familiarity.
" i mink we nave gooa ground ior nope,
Grace," he said, in a roassuiing tone.
" Really, I haven't tbe least luoa tnaiany
thing serious has befallen your cousin. I
bave known tbe young laay ior some urns
and can assure you that, though reckless
and high-strung, she Is abundantly able to
take care of herself."
"Then bow do you account for ber not re
turning hornet "
" I do not pretend to account for It," he
answered. "What was the errand that
took ber to Btonefieldl"
He retarded Miss Penroy keenly a he
put the question,
" A little affair of our own,"
'Which does not concern me, eht" re
torted the Captain, with a low laugh.
Grace passed Into the bouse without
speaking again. Tbe Captain muttered
aomethlnir not oxaotly polite under bis
breath, and then turned away. It was now
almost dark. As Captain Btarbright ap
proached the gate a stout form rose up and
confronted him
"Hal it is one of Uie twins," ejaculated
the Captain, feeling annoyed at the sudden
appearance of one he oared not to see.
" It's me, fur a fact," grunted the man In
a surly tone. " I reckoned you'd be over
afore this, Cap'n. I got impatient, as did
maw and Bill, so here I be."
"What brings yon beret" demanded the
Captain, leaning against the lenoe, regard
ins tbe man with a frown.
" What do ye s'posel I thought you might
craft. Hain't teen the gal-"
"Hat then it is yonr hand that has been
in this work. I feared so."
" You wanted it done."
."True."
Bending forward, Captain Btarbright
whlsnered huskily!
" Go down the road into the hollow. We
must not be seen together. I will Join you
immediately.'
The man hesitated a moment, then turned
and shuffled swiftly away.
CHAPTER XL
IB ma OOLCH.
Glancing toward tbe house and seeing no
one watching, Captaia Btarbright passed
through the gate and walked wllh deliberate
eteD down the incline to the foot of the
mound on which stood the Vendible man
sion. Here be found his man wailing In the
shadow of some trees.
The Captain led the way Into aomelinder
growth until completely bidden from the
road, then be came to a pause and faoed his
evil companion.
"Well, what bave you to tell, Hank Ca
bers'"
"The gal's did for."'
' Explain yourself."
In a few words the villain told bow be
and his twin brother bad waylaid aod mur
dered daualless Lura Joyce.
The Captain listened without a muscle of
bis countenance moving or exhibiting the
least emotion.
"How came the girl in that out-of-the-way
placet"
'She beard 'twas a short cut, I presume."
- "Do yon know this to be a fuctl" -No."
"Didn't yon or Bill entice ber from the
main road I"
"We didn't I'll swear to that, Cap'n."
"Very well It seems that the girl came
to ber death by aooident, This Is as it
should be. I will accompany you to the
spot and view the body. If all is as yon
bave told It there will be something
further."
"Hard moneyt"
"Yes, bard money."
"Good."
A chuckle fell from the ruffian's lips.
Then, without more words, the two walked
to tbe road. Darkness bad fallen, and the
twain were not likely to be recognised even
should they chance to meet any one. Boon
they gained the path that led te Mother
Cabera's cabin. Down this the twain
hurried, and In a little time they stood be
fore the but itself.
"The body is inside, I suppose!"
"Nix," answered the man.
"Where then?"
"Bill nor me hain't toched it sense we
dropped hor down yender onto them rocks.
I wouldn't do it Ef yon want to see tbe
corpse it's your privilege, I s'pose."
Even tbe calloused heart ot the Captaia
gave an unwonted throb at this. The
thought that tbe slender body of their vic
tim liy exposed under the cliff for many
hours was unpleasant
"A lantern, quick," ordored Captain Btar
bright "I will investigate. Tbe poor child
must have a Christian burial In any event
It Is awful leaving ber there all this time."
"We couldn't help it Cap'n. We expected
yon sooner. Oittin' tired of waiton I went
for ye," answered the Captain's tool, apos
ogeUcally. Then be entered the house, returning soon,
bearing a lantern In bis band.
"Bill wouldn't come, so I spect I'll hov
ter pilot ye to tbe place."
"Very good. Lead the way."
And then the two men set off down tbe
path toward the scene of tbe late accident I
It order to gain the foot of the perpendic
ular bill it was neoossary to begin tbe de
scent some distance from tbe spot where
Lura Joyce had been hurled into the rocky
a scramble among bushes and
along dangerous places whore the loose
pebbles threatened to precipitate them Into
eternity, the two men gained the foot of
the declivity and stood in a damp atmos
phere at the bottom of the gulch. .
"Now, then, how far is it I" '
This from the panting Captain.
"About twenty rods, I reckon."
"Lead on, quickly I" returned fStarbright,
in an Impatient voloe.
TJie dampness and gloom did not agree
with him, and he was anxious to bare bis
linen viable mission over with at tbe earliest
possible moment There seemed something
uooanay in the surroundings, and for the
flrst time a foaling 'akia to foar crept Aver

bis lantern before him. ' Thfl walking was
comparatively easy, and aoon we lantern
boarer came to a halt : '.
" Weill" demanded Btarbright -"We're
here, Cap'o." s ' ' '
The Gantein felt a rislnit in his throat, out
he swallowed it with a gulp and peered for-1
ward over a rock as bis companion Sashed
the rays of bis lantern forward. '
He thought to look upon the mangled
remains of the fair girl he had once sought
In marriage, and it U little wonder that the
Captain was a trifle nervous under the cir
cumstances. '
"I see ne one 1" uttered Btarbright, after
a basty survey, -
Hank Cabera uttered an imprecation ana
eagerly scanned the rooky ground.
"The gal hain't nere, lor a tact," ne mut
tered at length. "I s'peot the wild animals
baa carried ber on."
"That is absolute nonsense."
"Eht Whylsltt"
"It such were the case some traces
would be left behind, I see none here.
Your lie won't go down, Henry Cabera,'
"It's traces you seek, eh! Wbaiaoyou
callthlst" and the man with the lantern
held u p a bit o t gray cloth that had evident
ly been torn loose by jagged point oi
rock.
Tbe Captain at once felt the delicate text
ure, and decided that it was a piece from a
woman's dress, and ctosely resembled one
that be had seen worn by Lura Joyce.
"Jest look down here, partner." "
Hank Cabera was bending closely over
the stones at tbe foot of the atcep declivity,
one huge, grimy finger pointing at the
ground. , The Captain saw and shuddered.
Here, under tbe maai auger, naa Been a
pool of blood which was now coagulated. It
was a horrid reminder of the awful tragedy
the solemn rocks and trees bad witnessed
but twenty-four hours earlier.
The Captain shuddered and drew back.
" What d'ye think now, pardnerl"
Cabera regarded Captaia Btarbright with
curdling grin, r ,,
"It looks as though somebody bad fallen
here, surely." admitted the Captain, "but I
must sea the body before I will be convinced
that a sure thing was made of the work."
"Do ye imagine a gal could fall sixty foot
onter them rooks an' not be icuiea, misterr-
"It doesnt seem possible," admitted Btar
bright, "bat bow am I to know that you are
not deceiving met Borne one seem to bave
fallen on these rocks, bat it may be another
than Lura Joyce. I demand to see the body
before any thing farther is done."
"WaL I'll do my best"
Then the man began a search which re
sulted in failure. , . ...
"Somethln's carried the dead gal away,
that's aarUn." muttered Haak. "I can't
see through it no more than you Ido," .
"Let me take your Lantern a moment,
Hank."
The forester turned tbe desired article
over to Captain Btarbright, and he pro
ceeded to make an examination on his owa
account He was not long in making dis
coveries that satisfied bun, A strand ef
curling red browa bair was pressed under a
bush near the base of tbe rook, and half
ooBoealed in blood-sprinkled leave lay a
pearl-handled penknife that he knew to be
the property of tbe venturesome Miss
Joyce from the fact that it had been a pres
ent from him In the days gone by. Here
was proof then that Lura Joyce had been
hurled to tb bottom of the gulch, and this
being true, tbe Captain was satisfied that
tbe girl was dead. He was ponied at the
disappeereaos of the body, however. .
Securing the twin evidence of the awful
mime Captaia Btarbright returned to bis
brutal oompanioa, aod signified bis readi
ness to return to the ground above.
Wal, what did ye And, Capn1'
" Nothing of importance." - i
" Do y think I'm lyin' about the gait" .
Hank Cabera refused to move aulll this
question was answered. . H coo fro ted
Captain Btarbright with aa ominous soowl
on his shaggy face.
! "N. Iam satisflod that you have told
only the truth, Hank."
A grunt answered the captain's warns,
and then Hank Cabera began moving tor
ward on the return. Just as they were oa
the point ot beginning the ascent at the
point where they bad entered the gnlob,
both came to a stand, petrified into living
statues for the time.
A scream so wild, weird and awful rent
the air as to curdle the blood In the veins of
the gulch trespasser. ,. . , . ,
"My soul I what was that t"
Captain Btarbright drew a coaoealed
pistol aod glared about him without reply.
A pair of gleaming eyeballs peered at tbe
twain from the darkness. They seemed
like demon eyes, and for the moment the
Captaia was too stupefied to fire, '
Again tbe awful cry woke the echoes,
and then tbe Captain raised his revolver
and sent a bullet hurtling through the air.
A yell followed, then a crash and two
men stood In darkness. .
Tbe lantern had been swept In fragments
from the band of Cabera. Black darkness
everywhere. Tbe gleaming eyes -bad dis
appeared and a solemn stillness reigned.
This was even more Impressive than the
pandemonium of sound had been. Hank.
Cabera clung to the arm of Captaia Bur
bright and cried in a husky whisper l
The gulch ta ha'tUtit I've beerd tt be
fore. Let's git"
ho good could come of their remaining, so
the Captain, who was himself deeply
startled, seconded bis companion's sugges
tion by immediately moving from tbe spot
Tbe twain were not as long going upas
coming down, and both were extremely
glad when tbe welcome light from the
window ot Mother Cabera's cabin gleamed
In tbeir eyes. The brave Captain actually
staggered with weakness as be crossed tbe
threshold.

"An so you chaps ba been In the gulch
looking for the body ot that spitfire gaL '
Mother Cabera gave vent to a peculiar
grating laagh that Bounded harshly lu the
ears ot Captaia Btarbright
"That la the truth, Mrs. Cabera," as
sured the Captain, "Your son Hank toils
me that a terrible accident happened, re
sulting in the death of my esteemed friond,
Miss Joyce. The whole country is aroused,
and it Is highly necessary that the truth be
known. Miss Penroy and ber grandfather
are nearly distracted with grief, Since wa
did not find the body Iam not sure that
Lura Joyoe Is dead." i
You would like to know that she 1st " i
Captain Btarbright cast a quick glance at
the second twin, wbo lounged on the floor
near, with a pipe between his red Jews, aad
said :
"Oa the contrary, I should be glad to
know that she Is alive. It grieves me sorely
to think harm has come te one Who was my
friend." - j
"The spllflre gal was your friend?" I

After a moment of silenoe Mother Cabera
stopped to the Captain's side and touched
bisarm. ,K
"Come with me. Captain." she whisDered
in bis ear. Then sheorossed to one corner
ot the room and slipped aside mat re
vealing a trap-door. -
Seizing a candle that stood near she lifted
the trap and stepped through the aperture
t hus exposed. -' i . i
, Was there danger in fouowiagl
Captain Btarbright was not ready to trust
these people fully. He knew that bis life
would not be worth a picayune should the
Inmates of the gulch cabin deem it money
In pocket to take It He bad gone too far
now to recede, bowover, and so, making
sure of bis weapon, he followed the hag to
the cellar below.
As the trap closed above them Mother
Cabera said:
"I knew you was embarrassed up there
afore the boys, so I thought I would bring
you here where you could speak freely."
She flashed the blase of her candle about
the room, a small, square apartment, with
but the damp earth for a floor. Some boxes
and barrels stood about, and on one of the
former Mother Cabera seated ber gaunt
form.
"I s'pose you was expeeUn' this accident
a little sooner!"
"No. I bad nearly forgotten about it It
was an aocidont, thent" ,
"It looks that way."
"It Is very sad. I am sorry that the body
was taken away. There seems to be some
mystery about it"
A low chuckle answered him.
"It's plain's the nose on yer face, Captain
Btarbright"
"What do you moan I"
"I attended to the body. I was down
while the boys was away and fotohed tbe
poor gal up an' planted ber here, '
The hideous hag Indicated with a tap of her
foot the center ot the room, which seemed
a little higher than the surrounding ground.
"Good heavens I Do you mean that Lura
Joyoe's dead body lies here under our very
feett" cried the Captain, bis face white and
ghastly in the dim light
"That' It exactly. Hold the candle a
minnit and I'll show ye proof."
Mother Cabera thrust the candle Into bis
band and going to the side of the room lift
ed a spade that leaned against tbo stones,
and began digging In the center of tbe cel
lar. "No, no; that will do," cried the Captain,
aolammy sweat oortng out oa his face as
tbe spade struck something beneath the
surface with a thud that was sickening.
"Be you aatisflodT It won't take me
mor'n a minnit ' .
"No, I want no further proof," groaned
tbe wicked Captain. "I am assured that
poor Lura Joyce is dead. Let us go up."
"Here Is more proof, If you need It"
chuckled the bag, at the same time produo
log s soiled envelope, and thrusting it to
ward tbe Captain. "I'm oplnloned that the
tral was a-oarryln' this fur the heiress at
Lone Hollow."
It proved to be the letter that Lura Joyoe
lost and bad doubtless been stolen oy toe
bag while telling the girl's fortune on the
previous day.
Captain Btarbright read the letter with
It affectionate words tor the Btonefleld me
chanic, and folt his muscles harden,' bis
feelings congeal with rage.
1 will keep this," he said.
"It yen pay for it you may.'
The bag held out bony band. He thrust
the candle back in ber hand and drew forth
a wallet, counting out several bank notes.
These he banded over to hi oompanioa.
" That la the first Installment," be said, la
alow tone... , : i ...,,...v .:,(;,.
. " When does the next comet"'
" When I am master ot tbe Vendible
mllllona. No oa stands In my way now,
and before tbe snows of Christmas whites
the ground I will be master of Lone Hollow
and Its outlying lands."
Mother Cabers secreted the money, the
turned to .retrace her. stops to tbe room
above. Evidently she was thus far satisfied
with the situation. ... ,
" One moment"
Tbe band of Captain Btarbright detained
thenar.
" Yon must keep this affair wholly to
yourself, not even whispering my part in it
to your sons."
I am't a fooL Captain,"
This seemed sufficient answer, and tbe
two repaired to tbe room above. After
few more words with bis friends, Captain
Btarbright left the cabin and tornod bis
steps once more toward Lone Hollow,
