In all our talks I had been care

CHAPTER MI.
FOR BETTER OR WORSE.

FOR BETTER OR WORSE.
Macpherson's foreboding that the
strain and exposure of the trying
night would be too much for me was
as true as many another reluctant
prophecy. The following morning,
and for many mornings thereafter,
was unable to leave my room or my
bed beneath the low-pitched rafters;
and Mrs. Setter and Winifred came
and went and ministered to me.
Macpherson came, also, like the loyal
friend that he was, sitting with me
night after night, after the days
hard work on the placer bar; and
when I was once more able to take
a passing interest in the things that
arc, he told me what had befallen.
1t came out by Titles while Angus
watched with me in the intervals
when sleep would not come for all
my wooings. Wykamp had not been
seriously injured in his narrow es-
cape; had ridden to his work
the following day, in fact, with his
head bandaged and fierce frenzy of
determination driving him. The
force on the dam had been doubled;
night shift had been put on, and,
as Angus talked, could hear the
mum of the dynamo in the electric
plant set up to furnish the light for
the night gang. AS result of all this
increased activity, the dam was near
| ing completion. and the stock of the
land company was no longer a drug
in the market.
AS for Macpherson, he had turned
miner as he had promised to. His
demand for water had been prompt
y acceded to, and so far from prov
! ing an obstructionist, the engineer
had allowed his own workmen to

CHAPTER XII.
LA PETITE GuERRE,

1t was sodden thing, limp and
unresponsive, that Macpherson
dragged out of the NAV of the hungry
whirlpool and carried across the tot
tering wreck of the coffer-dam to the
half-fnished excavation in the oppo-
site canyon slide. When I Joined

bridge and scramble along tho
steep activity down which I had
once shot to plunge in the ICY
waters of the stream, he was maxi
ing fire in the shelter of the exca-
walton, hurrying TREMENDOUSLY and
muttering to himself like man gone
daft. In the excitement of the mo-
1nent he seemed to take my presence
quite as matter of course.
"Look him over, Jack, for Gods
sake, tell me if I'm murderer"
he gasped, going down on his hands
and knees to blow the spark in the
llindling.
He had propped the engineer in a
corner of the cutting, and I lost no
time in obeying the command. As
nearly as l could determine there
were no bones broken; but there
were two or three slight scalp
wounds, and the man was well
drowned.
"Pull yourself together, Angus, and
help me-" said. throwing Off my
overcoat. "The fellows drowned, and
he's dead man if we don't get to
work on him pretty suddenly"
Fortunately, we both knew what
to do, and how to go about it; but
there was despairing half-hour or
more of it before the first long-drawn
sigh Of returning life rewarded our
efforts. Macpherson worked silently
with set teeth and the tireless pa.
thence of piece of machinery; and
when Wykamp began to breathe nat
urally he sank back and covered his
face with his hands. A pebble ratified
down the slope of the excavation and
looked up. Setter was standing al
the pit-edge, gazing down upon us
like man lately aroused from his
first sleep.
'Well, I'll be dad-burned!" he said
clambering down to stare first at the
two of us and then at the uncon
/. scious engineer. "This yere's VIVA,

nod toward the unconscious engi-

it was not pleasant to hear. II don't

The unpleasant laugh came again.

said. shortly. II ought! to kill him,

He covered his face again, bursting

mingled wrath and remorse.

mile in the dry sand of the chan
mel was fain to curse the impulse
which had made me forsake the trail.
A hundred yards below the dam
workings my ditch crossed the trail
below and the stream by box-flume
bridge; crazy structure on spind-
ling stills that weaved and racked
under me as ran. I did not dare to
look down or aside until I had won
across; and then 1 saw that was
too late, and that 1 was on tho
wrong side of the stream. The
wooden coffer-dam was built out
from the other side of the canyon;
and the engineer, leaving his horse
where I had once left mine, had
climbed to the top of the timbering
to look down into the seething food
hammering at it's upper side and
sweeping foam-flecked past its outer
extremity. And on the trail below,
with his horse neighboring playful
ly with Wykamp's, was Macpherson,
waiting quietly until the engineer
should finish his inspection and come
down.
My end of the fume was in the
shadow of the canyon wall, and I
knew that neither of them could see
me; but stood up and waved my
arms and shouted to them. NV
tongue clave to my teeth, and
whether my cries were louder than
whispers, know not. 1t mattered
little; the thunder of the torrent
was deafening, and no warning shout
OF mine could dominate it. With
shaking knees I climbed a little
higher on the canyon wall to lay hold
OF gnarled tree growing from q
cleft in the rock. When 1 looked
again, the engineer had turned to
creep back over the dollhouse tim
bering of the coffer-dam. In the bal
ancing instant I saw worm-like
thread of fire eating it's way up into
the black shadows on the down
stream side of the timbering; saw it,
and saw that Macpherson had seen
1t. He was urging his horse up the
trail, and his ringing shout came to
me above the din and turmoil of the
waters. Then the thread of fire dis
appeared and rumbling crash shook
the mountain like the shock of an
earthquake. I heard the grinding
crunch of shattered timbers, and
when I looked again the coffer-dam
had become mere log-jam in the
seething whirlpool, and the released
torrent was breast-high on the trail
where Macpherson had halted. But
for the sight of him sending his
horse zigzag up the steep acclivity
opposite, should have tainted and
fallen. AS it was, my brain reeled
and horrible nausea seized me. 70,
ut that moment Macpherson flung
himself from the back of the scram
bling bronco and ran out on the
wreck of the timbering to lool
