 During the discussion Judge Elliott and MT. Austin had Mayor Toney on the carpet, so to speak, and submit ted him to a rapid cross fire examin- ation as to the "whys-and-Hherefore of Fifth avenue.

"If we could clear out the splinters

of saplings on each side for the gate

The logs were held up in the pond.
and a crew of men set to work to cut
away the splintered ends Of the old
sill and apron. The current rendered
footing impossible, so all the work had
to be done from above. Wet wood
gripped the long saws viselike, so that
a mans utmost strength could scarcely
bulge them. Nevertheless they held
to it. Orde. satisfied that they would
succeed, departed up river to the rear
This crew he found working busily

were herding the laggards of the flock.

quent upon the opening of the sluice

He led the old man ashore. At the
end of ten minutes Orde cried cheer
fully:
"War's over. boys! Break that jamw
The crew swarmed across the log
barrier to point above the center pier.
This they attacked with their peavies,
rolling the top logs off into the current
below. In less than no time they had
torn quite hole in the top layer. The

mediately the logs in the wings were
tumbled in from either side. At first
the men had to do all the work, but
soon the river itself turned to their
assistance.
The going of the jam drained the
water from the lower floors of the
mill. The upper stories and the grain
were still safe.
By evening the sluice gate had beer

pressed. 1t stated that the loss of life
was as yet unknown.
Don't you know any better than to
get into that kind of row down
here?" said Daily. Don't you realize
that this isn't the northern peninsula ?"
"Sure I do" replied Orde placidly.
"Come along here till show you the
situation"
The sheriff did not reappear. Reed
evidently now pinned his faith to the
troops.
BY 3 o'clock the main abutments had
been removed. The gate was then
blocked to prevent it's fall when its
neither support should be withdrawn.
Suddenly was heard an exultant yell
from one of the axmen. A brief in
slant later the swapping Of wood fibers
began like the rapid explosions of in
fantry fire; crash and bang Of tim
bers smote the air, and then the river,
.exultant. roaring with joy, rushed into
the new passage opened for it.
Orde stormed into the camp.
"Roll out, you river hogs" he shout
ed to those who had worked out their
shifts earlier in the night. Roll out,
you webfooted sons of guns. and hear
the little birds sing praise"
Suddenly Orde had froze in an atti-
tude of attentive listening. "Hark!'
said he.
Faint, the wandering morning breeze
bore to their ears a sound whose diff
ference from the louder noises near at
hand alone rendered it audible.

trail. followed eagerly by Newmark
