began to force themselves upon him.
Why had he thought gold would be any
where in this country? Why was all
this land around him lying undieturbed? |?
Perhaps these Westerners had some
way of telling whether there was gold
under the ground. ST nearly dropped his
shovel at the thought.
He stopped work and wiped off cold
perspiration. He kicked a bit of the
hated blush rock with his boot. Then
he suddenly spat on his hands and began
"mucking" again.
"Wen, ST Warner" he said aloud,
you're down twenty-one feet in the
airth, and you're goin' deeper My be-
lief's thet a mans gotter kinder keep on
tryin'"
1t was the day ST reached twenty-three
feet that man on horseback appeared.
Seeing ST at the windlass, he rode over.
"Hullo, old one What you doing?"
he asked.
ST turned The stranger was staring
piercingly at the blush rock As ST no
ticed it, his mind seemed suddenly to
grow keener The idea of a few days
prior that Westerners might have some
marvellous knowledge of rocks flashed be-
fore him. "Oh, I'm kinder diggin' a
gold mine," said he.
"You are, are you?" said the horse
man genially. He was a bluff man, with
a hearty voice You don't mind my
looking at your rock, do you?'
"Not by no means
The stranger swung himself from the
saddle to the rock dump and picked out
samples here and there. He scrutinized
them, holding them to the light 81
watched him with the corner of an eye.
The other went to the shaft and looked
eagerly down.
Still in the same rock, eh?" His
ewes cleaned, and his face was redder
than when he rode up
Same rock" echoed ST. He began
to feel curiously excited.
"Well, so 1ong!" said the horseman.
"May see you again And he galloped
off in the direction of Four Ace. opposite
to where he had been headed before, the
samples clicking in his pocket.
The full force of an inspiration was
on ST. He tore to the tent. Maria.

YOU mean, ST Warner"
Maria he declared slowly. it's my
belief thet thar's rock thet don't show
gold, but has it jest the same. know
I'm right 1t amt all like tibet sparklin'
stuff, and I'm goin' slap into town to
one of them fellers that scrunches up
rock and tells you how many dollars of
gold you've got
With result next morning from the
assaver showing more than nine hundred
dollars to the ton for two samples, and
nearly sixteen hundred for a third, 81
was not surprised in the afternoon to see
the horseman of yesterday and COM
panion ride up
Il guess we might as we'll come right
to the point" said the stranger. /
don't know what you're expecting for
your claim; but we want to make an offer
anyhow Wen give you a hundred
thousand dollars for her as she stands.
Come-what do you Think"
81 caught a long breath. But he did
not hesitate. BY gum, mister" said
he, q kinder guess thet thar mines a
mighty rich affair; but | reckon | don't
want to work on her no more. She S

Here Sis tongue stumbled a little.
And" he added, 'Ill throw in thet
thar windlass fer you to use yourself.
A letter inclosing six twenty-dollar
bills reached Endville soon afterward.
Since then it is understood that Ebenezer
Brown dislikes discussions on gold
mining.
Two weeks later, as a Pullman from
the West rolled into the Grand Central
Station in New-York, ST Warner turned to
his wife. well, Maria" he said, IF
you jest keep on a-goin' you find that
one of these days you've kinder got thar.

Now that was a bran-new phase Of
the situation for both parties to con
sider Parson Dawson was a Scotch
man, with bristling gray hair, whiskers
like a window brush, arms like fail
handles, and fists twice as big as the
knob on Seth Burkett's bass drumstick
Moreover, he was more than SIX feet
tall, and his great-grandfather was a
chief "amang the McGreegors, and YOU
could see by his eve that all the hot
Scotch in him was boiling.
Il honestly believe the old boy IS glad
of the excuse to mix in, declared Reuel
Smart, who stood next to me. He has
to punch shadows when he IS licking the
Devil, and he hasn't had a real. good,
sou1-satisfying fight since he was or
dained"
And 1 will deal blows valiantly on
this side, faith if l don't" agreed Parson
Wormell, who had Irish in him IN some
kind of a strain and was built like
Percheron, and at the Merriman barn
raising had carried up the big beam
alone after two grunting men had
dropped it.
And now there's old Brian Boru

Dawson, an moo we as your speeritual
cOunsellors say We shall no. an We shall

out like a wire, and his forehead worked
till his eyebrows looked as though they
were caterpillars crawling around.
Parson Worme1 had shrugged down
his neck and pushed out his lower jaw

Captain Nose Britt and Captain Sile
Cole stared at the ministers long and
hard, and then they snapped their eyes
away and glared at each other.
4 respect the CLOTH yelled Sile at

Bought En- in Byron, Hooray-

Over the noise sounded that tremen-

lowing: Nor for Byron parson,
either! Music!"
Here We Come From Old Stark's
Lighthouse" squealed Liberty Evans's
ffe-and pur-r-r. boom!-the drums join
joined him.
But at the first step the two Captains
made, the parsons lighted on EN-
Dawson for Britt and Wormen for Cole.
/ 1t was only human nature for both COM
/ panies to stand stock-still and see what
/ happened We couldn't have moved for
our lives just then. Neither Captain was
anv SLOUGH of an antagonist, and It was
really worth looking at.
1t was a wrestling match on both
sides. Elder Wormen caught his man
arms length, and as Cole was running
the parson just kept him going. but
around and around in circle until he
had snapped both the Captains feet
off the ground. As for the stubby-

But a difficulty confronted the War
ners They must have implements, pro-
visions and a tent Sufficient money
was lacking.
Il guess I'll jest write Ebenezer Brown
to send along little more money" said
ST forthwith; land meantime III kinder
shove into a job or two araound
town"
The letter was sent, and in the follow
ing fortnight ST found employment at an
outftting store, at wages whose size
amazed him. But he was impatient for
the answer from Ebenezer.
Kinder slimpsy fer money letter"
thought ST. lingering the envelop sus-
piciously when at last it came. But
here goes"
ST WARNER-We see you've got another
hay-hoister. Anyhow if you hev' or not, we
don't want no more truck at all with yer gold
ninin'; but we'd be mighty glad to get them
twenty each Send 'em and it'll be quits. But
we reckon you'll never do nothin, same's you
did here. Yours
EBENEzER Brown, fer all.
81 tore the letter across with much
ceremony. I'm mad clean through,
Maria" he announced, land they'll each
want to choke 'emselves with it when
they do get their twenty"
From Endville ST turned deternlinedly
to the Four Ace outftting depot for the
money. Six weeks later, by close saving,
they had enough to buy the necessary
supplies The Warmers were ready to
dig for their gold.
That was a great day when ST first
struck his pick into the ground. As he
turned over the earth they almost ex-
pected to see the gold shimmering But
not on that day, nor in many days after,
did ANYTHING in the slightest resembling
gold come to light.
ST went down through two feet of
earth. Then he got into rock. Cant
see nothin' but primary stone here" said
he disgustedly, as he peered at bit of
the rock after the first blast. Looks
mighty little like thet thar gold ore them
fellers showed me in Four Ace. | guess
we'll hev' to go down further, Maria y
The work proved hard in the extreme.
Continual blasting was the only means
of progress deeper-yet little deeper
day by day a little deeper;-still the
same rock.
Then one afternoon cheerful Hoo
rav!" came to Maria's ears. She hurried
from the tent ST was standing by the
shaft, with something in his hand.
You amt got the gold, hev' you,
Si?"
81 laughed. Not this time, Maria,
reckon. I'm only hollerin' because I'm
mighty glad to get into different stone.
Look!' and he showed her a sample of
rock formation of curious blush tinge.
Maria examined it disappointedly.
Thar amt much glitter to thet, is
thar, Sir
well, no, and ST scratched his head;
"but we're gettin' deeper anyhow.
Perhaps the gold'll be below this new
stuff, he added more cheerily.
He was now down nine feet Each
day saw little gain in depth The shaft
was growing too deep to throw out the
rock, and he was forced to install a
