As he glanced in he uttered a cry of surprise. "The card Mr. Liggins gave me to present to Mr. Tevis is gone!" he exclaimed. "Here! We must catch Professor Punjab! He has my card. Come on!" Jack was about to rush down the stairs but was stopped by several of the men. "You can't catch him," they said. "Besides, the police may have him by now. Go back and get dressed."
Tevis, who expressed his delight that Mr. Ranger's period of exile was over, that the bad men had been put where they could do no more harm, and that the unexpectedly discovered mine had panned out so well. "You are to be congratulated on having such a son as Jack," said Mr. Tevis to Mr. Ranger. "If it hadn't been for John and Nat I guess I wouldn't have had much success," Jack remarked.
And them words on the top I take to be some foreign language, but I never went to school enough to learn 'em." "They're Latin," said Jack, "and mean, literally, 'you will go most safely in the middle, or, I suppose, 'the middle way is safest." "That's like Orion Tevis," commented the stockman.

Snell, and Jack related as much of the matter as he thought might have a bearing on his search. "I can give you Mr. Tevis's address," the cashier went on. "You must excuse my caution, but, as you doubtless know, there have been strange doings in connection with that land deal. So you are Jack Ranger?" "That's me. But now where can I find Orion Tevis and learn where my father is?"

Me and him didn't work as mining pardners for ten years for nothing. I reckon I do know Orion Tevis. So does Josh Post." "Where is he now?" asked Jack eagerly. "I must find him.

"I want to see Orion Tevis, and ask him about my father." "It will take me three days to bring you an answer," Mr. Hardy went on. "Will you wait here until then?" Jack bowed his assent. "You must trust the rings and card to me," Mr. Hardy went on. "Oh, they will be safe," he added, as he saw Jack give a start of surprise. "You can ask any one in Fillmore about me."
"It might rain before it is taken away," he explained. "You can never tell when Mr. Tevis or his messengers come. He can see that letter from his house, by using a telescope, but he may not send for it. It all depends." "How will you know if he does?" asked Jack. "I will come back here to-morrow at noon," replied the guide.
They had reached the highest point in the range where it was almost impossible to go further with horses. Jack, who was in the lead, pulled up his animal. Then, as he looked down he gave a cry.
