Johnny Greene was what proved more
to his disadvantages little bit fresh.

ways of the west.
Better keep an eye on that young
man, Luke Davitt," said Will Kerner

Johnny got through the next morn.

ing his inferior ability us an operator
In the afternoon he received "broken
message from mountain station. The
disjointed sentences and long stops
reused his ire. He took the mountain
man to be nexperienced-what tele-
graph operators call "a plug"-and,
growing impatient, sent over the wire
q string of expletive abuse. This was
received very quietly, and Johnny,
growing elated, gave good deal more.
Finally the mountain operator sent
back terse please sign"
This the young man from the east
did boldly, giving also the address Of
the firm. More conversation followed.
Meanwhile the freshman was wiring
to Q bigger audience than he knew-all
friends Of the mountain operator. In
about twenty stations up the line the
lever was clicking. the clerks, attracted
by the length and character of the mes
sage. were transcribing for their own
amusement
Johnny wired his name and address,
and then grew sarcastic The mount
ain operator said little, but finally sent
word he would be in San Francisco
soon.
1t pleased the young man to change
his tone at this He replied facetious-
ly: 'Come onl Whipped many bet
ter man before breakfast. Thirsty for
gore! Came out on the Pacific coast
for the express purpose of clearing out
u score OF You old 'forty-niners.
This happened one afternoon. The
next, as the men were going off duty,
went down. knew little of what
had passed, but was ignorant of the
extent to which the greenhorn had
compromised himself.
Standing below, and questioning
each clerk as he passed, was thin,
spare man on the wrong side Of forty.
He had the appearance Of a typical
Californian from one of the mining
towns, wore grizzled beard. blue
shirt, wide-awalkc. and had a couple of
Colts rcvolvers stuck in his belt. He
made straight for me-
slow dye do, stranger? Your name
Johnny Greene?"
NO." said l. "but he'll be down
soon" Then something prompted me
to question him. He was very reticent,
merely saying he had important busi-
ness with Greene and would wait for
him. Failing to get at what wanted
to know by circuitous means, Isaid
bluntly: "Are you Benjie Hitwell
from -" naming the mountain sta
tion where the freshman's abusive
message had gone the afternoon be-
fore
YES" was the reply; II hail from

1t was only the ludicrous side OF the
affair that forced itself on me then.

is no jury out here that will convict

don't know which was more terri
BILE to witness, the deep wrath OF the
mountaineer or the covering fright of
the young man. He clung to lis and
implored us to go down and get terms
of capitulation; and as last argument
bade us tell the old fellow that he had
a mother and sister.
We thought him Of no use to either
relative, but his craven cowardice
awakened u sort of contemptuous pity
that urged us on our errand of mercy
We collected few of the night clerks,
explained matters to them, and went
down to the old man in body.
"Now," said the night manager, put
ting on bold front, ~ know you, and
know what you are here for. But
am boss, and will not allow fight in
the opcrating-room."
IAN right" said the man, quietly;
'ril wait here for him, If he stays

'Have go at him, Luke" whispered
Will Kcrner, aside. "If you can't get
Greene off none Of US can."
| Above, the fresh young man from the
east was trying to give flavor to his
case by rolling on the floor in misery
and uttering frequent groans indicative
of his last hour. The mountain man
listened and his eyes blazed with scorn
when went up to him.
"Come, now, stranger" began,
family enough, 1--WE know the young
man gave you a great deal Of talk. but
it was only in fun, and he has not lived

said much more, and then several
of the night operators joined me and
put in a plea. Well, sir, we did all
but 60 on our knees for that green
horns life. In the meantime the
tumblings and despairing groans from
above made us blush to voice his cause.
At last the man from the mountains
turned round and spat on the floor
That was our answer. It said as plain
as words could: THAT for such! He is
not worth killing"
He made over to us the young
mans life on certain conditions. The
next morning the terms Of the treaty
were complied with. At nine o'clock
Greene sent over by wire the most alb
ject apology man ever framed, and
every station on the line was rung up
to get the message

towards short memory must be
peculiar dispensation of providence to
help him tread the earth again with
some degree of confidence. For saw
young Greene in Boston, and while the
sight of him recalled to me the awful
threat of that old mountain man, he
was talking to friend on Washington
