could only gasp:

The man looked at them moment
in blank establishment, and then light
evidently seemed to break on his mind,
for he turned and looked sharply at
Avery and asked:
''Will you tell me your name?'
Certainly. My name is William
Avery"
The other man stepped up to him at
once and extended one of his hands,
palm downward, on the middle finger of
which was heavy gold ring with GU
rious device in the back. III
IF that is your name, you can tell
me the history of this ring" he said,
looking Avery full in the face.

the reply, while the others looked on in

CHAPTER IN.
JOINING FORCES.

Tom and his party camped the first
night about 80 miles from Dyea. The
next morning they were early astir and
continued their journey. The young
girl was too full of life and spirits to
ride quietly at her fathers side, and
Tom had several long chats with her
as they wound their way along the
faintly-marked trail.
She confded to him that she did not
remember her mother, who died when
she was very young. She had always
lived in Wisconsin with her father, and
was an only child. She refused to be
left behind on the present occasion, she
said, and It was very apparent she
ruled her father in most things.
In return Tom described his life at
home, and the young girl listened with
breathless interest to the story Of the
voyage and his adventure at San Fran
cisco.
She was.riding by his side late in the
afternoon when suddenly she pointed
to the summit of hill not far ahead,
and exclaimed:
"See! There's a man. coming this
way!"
She had scarcely spoken when the
second mate announced the same fact.
AS for Tom, he would not have seen an
army just at that time, for candor COM
pels the statement that he was already
hopelessly in love with his fair com
panion, and paid but little attention to
other things. ..5.+....
Five minutes later Joe Tarbox had
met them, and Tom accosted him at
once with: : ~. ..s
How are you! Bound for Dyea2"
That's just it, was the response as
the man ran his eyes rapidly over the
liberal outfit with an appreciatiye
glance. "Where mis- ht you be head
ing?" .s* II. ~
Were going toward Fort selkirk,"
said Tom. a.
Going down the river to Dawson?''
ITS hard to tell where we'll fetch
up" replied the young man evasively.
Did you meet anyone on this trail
lately 2" asked Avery, pushing forward.
The man hesitated moment, and
then said:
"Well, yes, I did meet two men yes,
terday. Friends Of yours ?'' s
What were they like 2" asked Tom.
Zone was tall chap that I think I've
seen at the river stations, and the other
was q sailor. He said he was, and he
looked it. He was stout built, with q
nose that looked as if it was broken
Some time. He

told me he had written to both the
Averys. They were old friends Of his.
He told me to look out for them in
Dyea. Have you got the papers with
you?'
That's what / have. Here they are,
all shipshape and above board, 2 replied
Rider as he proceeded to extract them
from his belt.
That's Dick Taylor's fist the world
over assented Tarbox as he examined
the letter. II remember the day he,
wrote that in our tent. We had just
found the first big mug
i He coughed to hide his confusion and
then added:
"It's all right, Of course, but man
has to be careful. Once let the mob
know where we are and what, we've
found and we'd be overrun in no time"
AS luck would have it Hank Bowers
chose this instant, when Tarbox was
examining the papers, to throw look
of ferocious triumph on the mate. AL
though neither Of them noticed the fact,
Joe Tarbox raised his eyes just then,
and to man of his training nothing
more was needed to put him on his
guard. ..-s ~ 81.
He cast keen look at Bowers. and as
if his scrutiny had been satisfactory he
dropped his eyes again, but there was a
little hardening Of the muscles about
his jaw, and with careless twist of his
body he brought his weapon nearer his
hand.
He was too old a hand, however, to
make any outward sign of alarm, and
said, coolly:
Its pity you didn't pick up the 9th.

by this time.''

asked Bowers. =.
do just as the letter says" replied
Tarbox. Build fire and3hell see the
smoke and come. The route is toe
crooked to describe"
How long afore you'll be back with
the grub? We've got good lot here
but you can't hev too much"
It'll take me three days to get in
and two or three more to get what ]
want. If L can't find horses I shall
have to go to Skaguay. I shan't be
back under fortnight or three weeks
at the best"
After finishing hispipe, Tarbox plead
ed fatigue, and rolled himself up in his
blanket. But there was no sleep fol
him that night. The sinister look on
Bowers face had given him the clew he
wanted, and as he waited patiently fol-
daylight he muttered to himself:
THAT was close shave! There il
something wrong about that sailor, il
his company is anything to go by. Il
this Bowers isn't the man saw driven
out of Joe Ladue's station for stealing
then I'm mistaken. Dick will be al
right. They may make all the fires
they want to, and that's all the gooc
it'll do them. I'll just bring back two
or three pen of the right sort with me
There's no other way"
At the first sign of daylight he was
astir. A hasty meal was soon eaten
and, shaking hands cordially with both
men, he said:
'Tell Dick I'll be back as soon as
can. You can't miss the TRAIL ii .
Then he struck out manfully on the
back track to Dyea, leaving the plotters
standing in front of their tent, exult-
ing.

ON THE DALTON TRAIL.

The two young men followed him in
silence. When they reached the tent
Tom repeated the story of his acquaint-
ance with the old miner, touching as
lightly as possible on the two occa-
sions in which he had risked his own
life, but a pair Of blue eyes were fixed
upon him all the while. and the girls
face showed that she fully appreciated
and admired his daring.

PARSNIP COMPLEXION.

1t does not require an expert to detect the
sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow
cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy
circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip
colored complexion indicates it.
A physician would ask if you had rheuma-
tsm, dull pain or ache in the back or over
the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate
often, or burning or scalding in passing it
if after passing there is an unsatisfed feeling
as if it must be at once repeated, or if the
urine has brick dust deposit or strong odor
When these symptoms are present, nc
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the
bladder, Inflammation, causing stoppage, and
sometimes requiring the drawing of the
urine with instruments, or may run into
Brights Disease, the most dangerous stage o
kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great dis.
covery of the eminent kidney and bladder
specialist, is a positive remedy for such dis.
eases. Its reputation is worldwide and it is
so easy to get at any drug store that no one
need suffer any length of time for want of it

The Lake CITY Lvnobine.

Charleston, S. c., April 2O.-The ar
gument in the Lake City case occu-
pied both sessions of the United States
circuit court here yesterday. J. p. X.
Bryan opened the case for the gov
ernment. His address, which contin-
ued for four hours, was a terrible ar
raignment of the crime of lynching and
of the prisoners at the bar. He de-
clared that human life is cheaper in
South Carolina than four cent cotton.
He accused the defendants in the Lake
City lynching case and their friends
of mutilating public records in order
to protect and shield the prisoners.
George S. Legare, replying for the de-
fense, declared that President Nc
Kinley had himself laid the founda-
tion of the crime by appointment of a
negro to Office at Lake City. He pro-
tested that the defendants were guilt
less.

The Philadelphia Exposition

The Exposition to be held under
the auspices of the Philadelphia Com.
mercial Museums, bird's-eye view
and short description of which we
published in these columns yesterday
is attracting the attention of the
business people in all parts OF the
world, and bids fair to be a most sue
cessful exhibition, and one which will
result in making the manufactures
of the United States known in all
parts of the commercial world.
United States Consuls abroad are
interesting themselves and are furn-
ishing lists of prominent business
men in the sections in which they are
stationed, whom they think should
be specially invited to attend the Ex-
position; Chambers of Commerce and
Boards Of Trade in foreign cities are
eleeting delegates to represent them
at the Exposition.
These delegates are coming from
all parts Of the globe. New South
W hlt5f CAAAldi % aIhhf COIths d6 well
as Europe and South America, are all
showing an interest in the coming
display Of American products.
The success of the affair depends
largely upon the interest manifested
by the people of this state. OF all
sections of the country which will be
benefited none will be more so than
Philadelphia and Pennsylvania.
Being the greatest manufacturing
city and state in the country, every
new market which is opened to us
will be a source Of profit to the people
at large.
The Exposition will bring the pur-
chasers right to our own doors, and
it would be folly upon the part of our
manufacturers not to take advantage
Of the opportunities presented by the
Exposition. Whatever success may
attend the coming exhibit will re-
dound to the good Of our state gen
orally; should there be a failure, it
will likewise reflect upon all.

HUI Predicts Another Call For Troops
man Hull, chairman of the house COM
mittee on military affairs, arrived home
yesterday. He expressed the opinion
that in view of the present conditions
in the Philippines the president will
have to call for more troops, adding:
"The army bill authorizes the presi-
dent to call 35, 900 more troops, if nee
essary, to serve two years. They
would comprise AZ new regiments and
make places for 1,500 more commits
sions. The president and secretary Of
war are anxious to avoid enlisting
men under this act but it looks now
as If call would have to be made"

Washington, April 20.-The Wade
court of inquiry was engaged steadily
yesterday in going through the testi-
mony which has accumulated as the
result of the three months investiga-
tion and in the preparation of the re-
port of its findings. The report will

of collating the essential facts is task
of no small magnitude, and will re-
quire several days time. There is a
unanimous determination on the part
of the members of the court to dispose
of the subject with the greatest pos
sible dispatch. It is possible a find
ing may be reached before the close
of the week.

General White is continuing a sweeping
investigation relative to allegations
of violation of the election laws by
various persons who are alleged to
have paid money to electors to register
and vote at the election in November
