Bradier stood on the road in front of liis house gazing up at the passing plane, His expression Indicated that he thought himself a fool for pot being u.R there with her. Not far down the s^re«t Corew, too. Was looking up at the i machine Unit was carrying away his wife. He thought that Bradier was Up there, also. His face was, haggard: deep lines brought out the •torture and unhajjpinoss that he i felt. Tears ran in his eyes. , Bradier s,aiv. Corew first; ; Rage iriountfj in Jim's breast.! Here was •> the man that had been the cause, of I him staying behind. . Bradier had ' stayed -behind to' help Corew battle , Rayon! Corew, the.man whose wif6 he, would steal!. I Corew turned as he heard's Bradier's footsteps pearing him. His eyes opened in amazement at seeing . Bradier. - "I--I " Corew's eyes were blank. "I thought Vou were up : there with her." Bradier bit ,out viciously. "If it wasn't for you, I would have been!" Then, acting [Sheerly on Impulse, Hayon was bluffed--and he knew it. But he was sporting--let it not be said that General Rayon-refused to play the game! f His eyes Opened wide. "But ha promised njew. bonus when he gets control." Bradier spoke -grimly. "General, that11 never happen--now that you are with me. You arid your army are on the payroll right now. Do you want it in writing?" Rayon shook his head. "Between gentlemen?". They touched glasses. "What do you want me to do?" "We've been having trouble withs, bandits--we want to get our oil to the terminal, but Mr. Lentz doesn't seem to approve of that. . Use your own judgment ... here . . . have a cigar." ' ' Rayon helped himself' and the two men walked to the door together. "-Hey, somebody,, get this General's horse!" called Bradier.

The next morning, as Jim Bradier stood in his pajamas, washing, he was interrupted by a load babble of noise that rose from the stroet. He ran to the window. Hayon and his gang stood in the Alianza enclosure! Bradier quickly buried his revolver underneath a seat cushion, then ran to the doorway, where he stopped. His Chinese boy was carrying a breakfast tray across the road, directly in front of Rayon. "Get back to that kitchen." bellowed Rayon. Bradier yelled louder. "Bring that breakfast here!" . The boy hesitated, took two steps toward Bradier, when there was a shot. The boy toppled over in the dust--dead. Shot by one of Rayon's men. Bradier ran out. toothbrush in hand. He stood in front of Rayon's horse and looked up at the leader, gesticulating with the toothbrush as he talked. "Who did that? That was my breakfast!" Rayon looked down at the odd figure in pajamas and broke out laughing. "He was the best cook in all the camps!" yelled Bradier. Rayon leaned back in his saddle and roared. The rest of the gang followed suit. Taking instant advantage of Rayon's head being thoown back, Bradier, with a quick lunge, reached up, and yanked the leader off the horse with one hand and jerked the gun from Rayon's holster; with the other. Holding Rayon between himself and the gang and with a gun pressed into Rayon s stomach, Bradier growled, "Send those lice out of the camp!" Rayon, taken by surprise and helpless in Bradier's grasp, gav.e the oider for the men to ride away. They hesitated, then as the command was repeated, broke and made for the open desert. Pushing Hayon before him,- Bradier led the bandlv leader into his home. The.oil men stared gaping at this strange procedure, Inside, Bradier pouted drinks, and then two men were like the best of old friends. Their conversation was general, complii lentarv to tite other. Finally Bradier I jsaid' '* • _ V \ • -Well--what'U it be. General-- • Rayon grinned Widely.-, ®*You and 1 speak the same language, Mr. Bradier. it'll be an honor to eo-operate with you." "Fine! How much are you getting?" ^ "MY stipend is five thousand a niontb.v' Rayon's arms swung in a fe-eneruus gesture. Bradier leaned forward, his smile gone. "I'll pay vou ten. What kind of a piker is ntz--underpuying you like that?" compllsh it." His . voice rose. "Nearly, Lentz--don't forget that a ] second. You're not going to get away with it. If you've ever had; any idea of being president of an 1 oil company with a palatial homo on Long Island, forget it." • "You're mad, Bradier--quite mad. I don't have to listen to a criminal who has men killed." "I not only had men kilied," an-j swered Bradier, "I've killed them. But I was producing oil--getting it out of the ground and into ships' under conditions that would have ended you overnight. And you're j ended now--you and your double-1 crossing." i "I don't know what you're talking jabout." • "I'll tell you. You tried to get! control of this company. You paid > Rayon to wreck our property and I kill our men. When I get back to: New York I'll cook your goose at' the home-office, and I'll have Corew put in your job. After I've left, you still have Corew to deal with. You'll' find him a man, Lentz--a man. You can't spare him, or buy him. I know you can't, because I couldn't.) From thjs minute, on .you won't know how long you're going to live.. That'll be your punishment. You won't Hnow what man is stepping \ip to you--behind you--I believe there's an instant of recognition after a fatal shot--an instant when; you are conscious of ghastly pain.1 You'll hear the b«ne crash and j you'll taste the salt. That's what'si goin^ to haippen to.you!" Bradier walked to the door. "George K,' Lentz--fat and filthy--and fin-! ished!" he called back. ^ Bradier went immediately to a phone booth and called Vida. "Vida, this is .Jim, talking: Everything's* set. We're going tonight. I've ar-j ranged for accommodations on the steamer. I'll be over in a little while/' He hung up and walked quickly: to Louis Sixto's cafe. He sat at a table with Teresita "and told her of his plans to leave. . The girl start-; ed to cry. ,1 "Teresita. stop your crying! Stop it!" • " She stood up and pulled her to him " quickly, impetuously. . She clung to him with a pasionate. despe. rate strength. "I want you to love m.e, Chico--I want-you to lovift me. I 'don't want tQ, lose you. . . I An't live if I do."* . "Be av good girl,. Teresita." said Brudier. palting her .shoulder. "You'll be all right. You'll" have no trouble getting men--all the men you want." He. pulled out a roll of bills and banded them to her. "There. Now forget it. will you!"* She knocked the money from his hand angrily and ran from the room, tears streaming down' her beautiful voung face.
