the isthmus hove in sight he was in n
fever of doubts and anXicties When
she touched the port he ran out to
meet her. Another man disembarked.
He talked rubber from the moment he
landed until Selkrl lost sight of him.
Hes after the rubber, too" senten-
tiously remarked the American consul.
Sclkirk stared. held his breath and
then bolted from the office. Before
night he was on his way back to the
interior, carrying with him only a light
travelling outfit and two guides WIZ
had accompanied him on his former
trip. He knew that It was n race be.
tween the English and American COM
panies, and Selkirk felt his native
American pride urging him onward
But the Honduras forests and
swamps are the worst in the world to
get lost in, and before they were two
days out from Amapala the guides ap-
peared hopelcssly tangled In tropical
jungle. Selkirk swOrc at the stupidity
Of the native guides and tried to find
his way out by studying his chart.
Then queer thing happened. They
suddenly plunged out of their dismal
forest fastncss into an upland opening
with n score of native huts in full
view. But more surprising than these
huts was the appearance of the ma
tives grouped under an immense coyol
palm eagerly gcsticulating and talking
to a white man. Selkirk gave little
impatient grunt and ground his teeth
I'm rage. Before him was the English
agent who had landed at Amapala two
days before.

Selkirk's Deal
In Rubber
By GEORGE ETHELBERT WALSH



~ELKIRK had been sent south to
look after the American Rubber
cOmpany's interests in the in
terror Of Honduras, and after
two months Of the most eXasperat ting
exploration through the swamps and
woods Of the lOwlands ten miles back
from the coast he was free to confess
that lie was not I'm love with the Job
Besides the risk to ones life from fe-
vers and ruthless cutthroats, the pay
was hardly commensurate with his
ideas of his usefulness. 1t seemed like
two years instead of two months since
he had seen white man or a civilized
home, and 1t was good to gaze at the
blue expanse of the sea again and even
ut the dismal mud and thatch houses
of Amapala. Only that morning he
had returned to the coast, and his ex-
pectant eyes had scanned the sea eager
ly for n steamer, but he had been dis
appointed and then rcjoiced at the re-
port that the isthmian steamer was
due in two days.
( I'll arrange to return on her" he
had said abruptly, expressing his
thoughts aloud I'm sick of these In
fernal wids and people"
The American consul, a small dried

Gated long residence in the tropics,
shrugged his shoulders and smiled
Selkirk looked at the man In pity and
added, "And you stay here right
along!"
'Twenty-tlve years now." was the
laconlc reply. 81 suppose I'll die here
too. One place is about as good as an
other"
Then. turning brusquely toward his |
desk, he added: "Sclkirk is your name,
isn't 1t? Yes, have some mail for you. |
Here's letter marked important. 1t |
was brought on the last steamer"
Sclkirk looked over the letters. Some
were business communications, others
from home and friends, but the one
marked important was from his en-
ploycrs. The rubber companys name
was plainly stamped on the outside.
He tore it open rapidly, scanned its con-
tents in few vivid glanccs and then
swore mildly under his mustache

through Selkirk's brain, and then at
the end was promise to give him Il
