to sell your share in these mines,
Jim?" said John.

north Sailor B. You can have your
choice"
That's not fair!" said Jim. "T'll
play you a game of seven-up for the
first choice; three games of ten points
each-best two out of three to take
first choice"
GAN right" responded John, as
Blake produced well worn pack of
cards and shufied them. But before
we play, let me finish my proposition.
You wish to sell your claims for two
hundred and fifty thousand If you can
find purchaser. viii you give me an
option on your claim, I'll give you
five thousand in cash for the follow
ing option on your claim-you to deed
me all your rights in consideration Of
one hundred thousand dollars, payable
in sixty days from this date; one hun
bred thousand payable in six months
from date, and one hundred thousand
payable in one year from date. And"
you bet your life will" interrupt
ed Blake, extending his hand. Make
it two thousand in cash, John. That
will be enough. Make it two thousand
and I'll go you
I'VE win call it twenty-five hundred
and you can have the other twenty

CHAPTER XIII.
The Quest Ter cold.

The two young giants performed
wonders in the three weeks which fol-
lowed their discovery of gold. Glow
ing with health and strength, and in
spired by ambition, they gnawed
ragged holes into the side of the
mountains with their picks and drills.
Several nuggets were found, but these
were of small value compared with
the broad stratum of ore which opened
out from the spot selected by John
Burt. The claim chosen by Blake
soon exhausted itself, and he turned
his attention to the third, expressing
fear that he was a "hoodoo."
"But there's luck in odd numbers
says Rory OMoore," sang Blake as
he poised ON a shelving ledge and Wig
orously drove a crowbar into crew
ice. Ere the sun dropped below the
range he had uncovered another wide,
deep vein Of gold-bearing quartz.
The spring rains set in and the
brook became foaming, laundering
torrent. Avalanches tore down the
mountain sides, plowed their way
over the cliff, and, with a roar which
shook the cabin, hurled themselves
into the valley. The pine trees lost
their plumes Of snow, and sang in a
higher key the refrain which told of
relief from burdens carried complain
ingly for months.
Piled in gray heaps near the tunnel
was ore worth not less than forty
thousand dollars. With the flight OF
the snow and the birth of spring,
Blake wearied Of his task and longed
for its REWARDS.
TEL you what let's do John" he
said one night after supper. Lets 60

Calaveras before found the gilt.
Wall, john he concluded, relapsing
to the familiar Yankee drawl, "'don't
this beat time, as Uncle Toby Haynes
used to say?'
ut certainly is remarkable" said
John Burt, folding the map. How
did you happen to select this particu-
lar spot, Jim?"
Just happened to, that's all" was
the laconic reply. ! laid out claims
all along here, but this one seemed
the most likely"
Il suppose your claims cover the
ground indicated on this map, don't
they?" asked John.
1T don't make a bit of difference
whether they do or not" asserted
Blake with much vigor. IF you find
ore, the claim is yours, John, and don't
you forget it'll"

that and the map against your claim
and experience. What do you say,
Jim?"
ITS not fair to you, John, but I'll
gladly accept. and here's my hand on
it,"
After breakfast they set about To-
eating the sailors vein. In less than
an hour Jim Blake sunk his pick into
quartz rock which showed free gold.
While Jim was gloating over his find,
John appeared from behind ledge.
He handed Blake nugget which
weighed fully ten pounds, and a
glance-to say nothing of the weight
showed it to be almost solid gold.
Blake grasped it, devoured its dull
gloss with sparkling eyes, and hurled
his hat high in the air.
Eve are rich! We are rich!" he

to Auburn and negotiate the sale of
these mines. We ought to get big
money for the Sailor, John"
How much?" lsked John, after
moments pause,
Half a Million replied Blake posi-
lively, with a loving accent on the
million" Half a million is dead
cheap. Don't you think so, John?"
81 shall not sell my interest-at
least, not at present" said John Burt,
"and l advise you not to. We can
handle this property without trouble,
and make more in developing it than
by selling it, Besides, l doubt if we
can get an offer of half million"
I'VE can try, John" said Blake
hopefully 1.-TWO hundred and fifty
thousand dollars is a lot of money.
would take it in a minute if l could
get it."
They discussed the matter for
hours, but Blake would not recede
from his position. Dangling before
his eyes was a purse containing two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, to
be obtained without further work or
worry. 1t meant pleasure. affluence,
ease, liberty-it was enough Not SO
with John Burt. When the rock
crumbled beneath the first blow of his
pick and the ten pound nugget CLEANED
in the shale, he recalled the parting
words of Peter Burt quoting the Ian
guage of Isaiah: 81 will give thee the
treasures of darkness and the hidden
riches of secret places"
"We'll talk no more about this mat
ter tonight, jim" he said, when Blake
had finished telling of the great things
