~ HERE was great rejoicing In
Tribulation Canyon, for the mo-
rnentous question of Christmas
dinner had been settled TO
everybody's satisfaction. For
turkeys were scarce in the canyon
that winter and so were chickens In
fact, most of the miners would nave
had 10 compromise on bacon or plug
cut-as canned corned beef was af-
fectionately called-if Doc had not
dug I'D the needful and given dinner
invitation 10 the whole camp.
For Doc had the best diggings in
the camp. also the first water right,
SO he generally had grub in his cabin
when two thirds of the other miners
were living on hope and rarefied at
mosphere. And as wilson's heart was
as big as his Observation-Disclosures in
fact. for he was in debt half the time
the canyon breathed sigh of re-
lief. for they realized that their
Christmas dinner was in good hands.
And il was TO be high toned al
fair too, for when Doc made the
rounds Of the camp with his invita-

on your frills and make the people
from the Flat think we have a flrst
mortgage on prosperity"
Now. there were only two China
men in Tribulation Canyon, All Lee,
who cooked for Doc Wilson's camp,
and Ben Hoy, who did the washing
for the entire community. And busi-
ness had been decidedly dull with Ben
Hoy, for most Of the miners had
reached the one-shirt stage OF the
game IN rnelr progress toward accu-
mulating a fortune, and a man with
but one shirt TO his back generally
lets his reputation for cleanliness die
a natural death, while he keeps his
nakedness under cover as long as pos
sible
But there was something doing at
Ben HOys Christmas week. Never
before in the history of the camp had
SO many white shirts tapped on the
line back Of the Chinaman's cabin.
and on the evening of the 23d Ben
Hoy stood in his doorway, his eyes
riveted on the moonlit clothesline and
his soul a-nutter with the ravishing
music Of the Mapping shirt tails He
would iron on the 24th. and in the
evening the miners would come with

For cur liberty" he retorted. Come
on. We'll have supper downtown some
where. and Wen go to the theater aft

And you'll go broke after that" she
supplemented.

"Oh, 1 know who 1T is,'' said Sandy's
partner. It's that Chinese laundry
man; he ought to be run out of the
camp"
rs it now?" replied Sandy. "weel,
weel; 1 dinna ken the Chinese were sic
musical bodies"
At 8 o'clock Ben Hoy put up his
fiddle, took a last affectionate look at
the clothesline, then went to bed. But
unfortunately for Ben Hoy and his sill
yer-lined dreams half a dozen mules
from Thompsons pack train got loose
during the night and incidentally
bumped into the washing. They
stripped it as clean as a whistle and
when they were discovered the next
morning one of the mules had nego-
tiated about three yards OF the clothes
line.
They didn't even spit out the clothes
pins" remarked Doc Wilson, telling of
the affair afterward.
Ben Hoy took the brush and 1T
was probably just as well, for there
was enough of that clothesline left to
answer the purpose.
