"Breakfus' Teddy" he announced.
and began hammering out the alarm
in front of the door.
When Darrell sat down at the table
the proprietor posted himself at the
dining-room entrance and watched him
ominously. The fugitive's identity
was not suspected, but the proprietor
had heard of the extra plate-cleaning
the day before and wanted to see if
the insult would be repeated.
1t was not. Darrell made a half
movement to take the plate from the
table, but dropped it again after a
quick glance at the man in the door
way.
The food was brought on, Darrell be-
gan to eat and the proprietor went
away with a grim smile. Breakfast
and an envelope.
In few moments he had written the
following:
For the Sheriff: If you will call
at the old cabin in the coulee to the
left of the War Eagle trail, not far
from the mine, you will find some
thing that will interest you"
He did not sign the communication,
but put it into the envelope, sealed it
and addressed it to "The Sheriff, on
his way back to Anaconda" and left
it with the proprietor for delivery.
When he rode away from the tavern
Darrell was reassured His new per-
sonality had withstood the test and
he knew that he could trust it until
such time as it ceased to be service
able.
But one thing made him uneasy.
That was the doubt, now twice eX-
pressed, that giant powder could be
so comprehensive in its destructive
powers.
To settle his question what could be
better than to have the sheriff visit
the hut in the coulee? The body of
smooth-faced man would be found,
but evidences would be at hand TO
show that beard had been removed.
Everything would point to sudden
act of self-destruction. 1t would be
supposed that Nate Darrell, overcome
WIFI lHS lIOpOlCoohSSo Vi hlo tdoC, u6iIi
done away with himself.
The fact that the fugitive had es-
capped the explosion in some remark
able way would silence the doubters.
Shortly before noon Darrell rode into
Anaconda, turning aside and making
for the livery barn nearest the Black
foot trail The hostler came grinning
out to receive the horse.
THE calico carried you all right,
eh?" the man inquired.
Very well indeed How much do
owe you for him."
The hostler stared.
why" he answered, you bought
him from the old man. Don't want
to pay for the brute twice, do you?"
Darrell was quick to take care of the
emergency.
Il mean for his keep" he answered,
with shade of annoyance. will you
keep him here for nothing?"
You'll have to see the old man
about that. He's gone home to dinner
now"
Darrell united the traveling-bag from
the cantle and walked down the street.

"No camp in the United States

"No camp in the United States
has ever made such a record for
it's second year as Thunder Noun
tain is now making" said Mr.. Pur-
dunn "The new state wagon road
is the most important thoroughfare
in the state, and Governor Morris
on SO characterizes it, although he
came very near to vetoing the bill
appropriating $4,000 for it's con-
struction, to supply an amount
equal to that given by Mr.. Dewey
and myself. Today that road is
the busiest scene in Idaho, with
freight wagons and packers along
its entire length moving heavy ma
chinery and supplies to the snow
line to take in as soon as possible.
The road will be finished about
the first of August, when all of the
machinery will go in.
There is more capital going into
Thunder Mountain today than in
any other camp in the country, and
more prospeetors are going in this
year than ever before. 1t is no
longer an experiment in any sense.
| knew nothing of mining until l
became interested in Thunder
Mountain but l know the situation
there perfectly, and there is moth
ing to speculate on except the ex-
tent of the blanket formation
which we do not know beyond the
area above described"
