trespasg. The land Is afterward bought by another party. Has the latter any claim for damage against the trespass- err Understand me, the purchaser bought after the trespass was commit ted"
 Certainly" answered Nerthrop with out hesitation, provided suit is brought within six years of the time the tres pass was committed
 "Goodl Now, see here. These M. & D. people stole about a section of gov ernment pine up on that river, and I don't believe they've ever bought in the land 1t stood on. In fact, I don't believe they suspect that any one knows they've been stealing. How would it do if were to buy that sec ton at the land office and threaten to sue them for the value of the pine that originally stood on tt?''
 The lawyers eyes glimmered behind the lenses of his pince-nez.
 "It would do very well indeed" he replied, 'but you'd have to prove they did the cutting, and you'll have to pay experts to estimate the probable amount of the timber. How much, on a broad guess, would you estimate the timber to come to?''
 There ought to be eight or ten mill lions," guessed Thorpe after an in- stants silence, worth in the stump anywhere from sixteen to twenty thou sand dollars. It would cost me only eight hundred to buy it."
 'Do so by all means. Get your doc uments and evidence all in shape and let me have them. I'll see that the suit is discontinued then.".
 The next day Thorpe took the train north. By the time he had bought the sixteen forties constituting the section, searched out 8 dozen witnesses to the theft and spent week with the Mar quette expert in looking over the ground he had fallen into the swing of work again. His experience still ached, but duly.
 Only now he possessed no interests outside of those in the new country, no affections save the half protecting, good natured comradeship with Wal lace, the mutual self restraint respect that subsisted between Tim Shearer

Wallacs Carpenter. stood before him.

Wauacs Carpenter stood before him. He rose and swiftly shut the door in- to the outer office. Wallace seated himself mechanically.
 "Everything! Everythingv' he said in despair. "I've been a fool. I've been blind."
 So bitter was his tone that Thorpe was startled. The lumberman sat down on the other side of the desk.
 'eThat I'll do, Wallace" he said sharp Iy. 'Tell me briefly what is the mat ter"
 "I've been speculating?' burst out the boy.
 "Ahv' said his partner. 'T bought on a margin. There came 8 slump. I met the margins because am sure there will be a rally, but now all my fortune is in the thing. I'm go- ing to be penniless. I'll lose it all."
 "Ah!' said Thorpe.
 "And the name of Carpenter is so old established, so honorablep' cried the unhappy boy. And my sister!'
 "Easy" warned Thorpe. Being penniless isn't the worst thing that can happen to a man."
 ''No, but am in debt'' went on the boy more calmly, T have given notes. When they come due I'm a goner." How much?" asked Thorpe lacon- ically.
 Thirty thousand dollars"
 "Well, you have that amount in this firm"
 "What do you meanY
 "Tf vou want if yol can have itA Wallace considered a moment.
 ssThat would leave me without a cent" he replied.
 "But it would save your commercial honor''
 Harry cried Wallace suddenly, couldn't this firm go on my note, for
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1903-12-21

thirty thousand more? It's credit is good, and that amount would save my margins.".
 'sYou are partner replied Thorpe. "Your signature is as good as mine in this firm.''
 But you know I wouldn't do it with out your consent" replied Wallace re- proaehfully. sOh, Harryv' cried the boy. When you needed the amount let you have ity'
 Thorpe smiled.
 'sYou know you can have 1t if it's to be had, Wallace. I wasn't hesitating to figure out where we can raise such a sum as $6O,OOo. We haven't got it."
 But you'll never have to pay it," as- sured Wallace eagerly. "If can save my margins I'll be all right"
 "A man has to figure on paying what ever he puts his signature to-" assert ed Thorpe. T can give you our note payable at the end of year. Then I'll hustle in enough timber to make up the amount. It means we don't get our railroad; that's all"
 T knew you'd help me out. Now it's all right" said Wallace, with re- lieyed air.
 Thorpe shook his head. He was al ready trying to figure how to increase his cut to 30,OOO,O0O feet.
 "Tll do it, he muttered to himself after Wallace had gone out to visit the mill. 'I've been demanding success of others for good many years; now I'll demand it of myself"
 Fro BE coNTIEUED.1
 Good resolutions will be in order from now until New Years day. Peo- pie can make no better one than that they will have the Democrat office do all their job printing.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1903-12-21
CHAPTER XX.

f~nIVE years passed. In that time Thorpe had succeeded in cutting JOG, O,OOO,OOO feet of pine. The
 money received for this had all been turned back into the company's funds. From a single camp of twenty five men the concern had increased to six large, we'll equipped communities of 80 to 100 men apiece, using nearly 200 horses and hauling as far as eight or nine miles.
 Near the port stood a mammoth saw mill capable of taking care of 22,000,- GOO feet year, about which lumber town had sprung up. Besides it's orig tnal holding the company had acquired about 150,O0O,000 more back near the headwateFs of the Ossawinamakee.
 During the four years in which the Morrison & Daly company shared the stream with Thorpe the two firms lived in complete amity and under standing. Northrop had played his cards skillfully. The older capitalists had withdrawn suit. Afterward they kept scrupulously within their rights and saw to it that no more careless openings were left for Thorpe's shrewdness.
 And as the younger man on his side never attempted to overstep his own rights the interests of the rival firms rarely clashed. AS to the few disputes that did arise Thorpe found MT. Daly singularly anxious to please. In the desire was no friendliness, however. Thorpe was watchful for treachery and could hardly believe the affair finished when at the end of the fourth year the M. & D. transferred its op- erations to another stream a few miles east.
 "They're altogether too confounded anxious to help us on that freight, Wallace" said Thorpe, wrinkling his brow uneasily. 'T don't like it, It isn't natural"
 Thorpe's Camp One was celebrated in three states. Thorpe had set out to gather around him a band of good woodsmen. Except on a pinch he would employ no others.
 'I don't care if I get in only 2,0OO feet this winter, and if a boy does that" he answered Shearer's expostu- lations, tits got to be good boy"
 The result of his policy began to show even in the second year. Men were little proud to say that they had put in a lWinter at ssThorpa's One.9 Those who lfad worked there during the first year ATere loyally enthusiastic. As they were
