suppose you mean the fellows that | were picked up. Yes, it was a long time ago. Outlawed long ago." His eyes were still trained on Long | woods face, his memory wringing it. self without the slightest sue.
 ''What do you know about the Trop- ic Dawn?"
 Not much,' replied Longwood, but enough to know that man has got to keep reading all the time if he doesn't want to fall behind the news of the day. I was never aware, for instance, that murder was ever outlawed Guess they must have passed that law out there in the last year or two"
 "Sit still, Longwood. Don't go just yet. I want you to tell me about the Tropic Dawn. l want you to tell me all you know. It's funny, isn't it, how a mans memory will get the best of him?"
 Now the story that Longwood tolG to Bostwick was not precisely the story he told to me. Longwood was
 
 getting prices which his heaviest competitors would not even dream of asking, and I fancy that he kept his business wits about him on that i'm portant day-the most important day since his mother gave him birth. But you will never be able to understand how the game was spread between them until you have learned what Longwood did in San Francisco twen- ty years before; for 1t was then that he cana by the money that gave him his little start-I mean after he lost his job in Boston and went out to the coast with all his belongings con- verted into ready money.
 To Longwoods fancy San Francis CO., while he still had money, was a Garden of Eden in which men had been placed for the sole purpose of seizing with both hands the pleasures of the world and the flesh. When the ozone poured in from the ocean, and the crystalline weather cordialed his brain and his spinal cord, the shacks of which Market street was built were turned by the sun into palaces of mere joy. The restaurants. with their lights and linen, were, for him. the supping rooms of kings. The painted women who clustered in the streets of evenings were the dainty princesses of a fairy realm.
 When his money was all gone he began to realize that the geographical position of San Francisco had been chosen for the quick accomplishment of one or the other of two specific things: Suicide or seafaring. And
The Nevada County picayune., 1911-07-21

when Longwood, indorsing the second alternative, started to walk to the water front in search of a job as sailor before the mast, he was clothed in the raiment of a tramp.
 On the whole. he seemed to be glad of it, anyway. Printing and binding up to that time-had not been for him the golden purse of Fortunatus. He knew the business well. knew 1t from the tannery up; knew 1t in its practical and theoretical phases; the printing part, the binding part, the finance. But nothing ras doing in San Francisco in that line, and so far as Longwood was concerned. nothing was doing in San Francisco in any line at all. If you made an exception of suicide and seafaring
 And even at that. as he neared the water front, it became questionable with Longwood whether suicide would not be preferable to seafaring-all things weighed. Two months of pawning and selling had picked him clean of his clothes and of every other thing of value he had; and similar term on the bad whisky and Spanish free lunch they were offer ing at the Slovarian homes for the friendless near the water front had mottled his face and imparted to his eye the alertness ana permanent an- ticipation you sec on the visage of the man without name. San Fran cisco had danced him on her knee. kissed him and sang to him. And now he was hustled and shoveled about, not because he was counted as worth the shoveling. but merely be- cause he seemed to be in somebody's way.
 What an accommodating town, to be sure, In the days of his pre- ternatural joy the lustrous weather touched him with it's wand of gold and quickened the streams of his blood.
 Seafaring? Yes. To be kicked by the actually kicked; to say nothing of falling from the top of a mast some day to find your home in the bounding deep He was trying to use himself to the thought when he felt a touch on the shoulder and heard voice in his ear.
 Did you sign with the Tropic Dawn?"

when the horses are coming through the stretch and the bettors are prop ping themselves up with the broken reeds of hope. Longwood drank and waited. The door-opener led the way.
 Men" he said, 'I have drank good liquor in every latitude and close to near every longitude in the world. but this here liquor is the best liquor I ever tasted"
 He spoke of the liquor. but he was not thinking of it.
 This here is good liquor" added another of them, not seeing it and not thinking of 1t, Out it ain't the finest of the fine by long ways. It ain't got the taste that mo-qua has got Mo-qua Is the Chin-Chin cham pagne, and I once drank 1t In Canton, but it'll put you to sleep for four days if you snuff up enough of it at set ting"
 It was gritty work-this polite con- versation-gritty and unprofitable for plain blunt men accustomed to the alternatives of speaking their minds or remaining dumb like the beasts. But they played the game though with the obviousness of infants. "Did you ever see such fine weath- CT as we're having these days?" spoke | a third This here weather Is enough l to make a man contented with his | lot In life If he was convict n | Chile. It makes me think of when I was little child on my own mothers knee at home, so 1t does" The door-opener was dragging at his pipe.
 q was wondering if all you men has weapons" he said, "Not that you're going to need them special, only I've always been in favor of a man having a weapon on h.ro, if it's nothing but a lady's pen-lSnife, espe- cially when you're going to be intro duced to strangers.
 And then followed another round | of tho ~'eather
 Speaking of weapons" resumed the door-opener. q once knowed a man who got hurt fearful in Callao by not having a thing on his person by Portuguese in an argument about whether the king of England wasn't the pope of the Protestant church"

have loved for his open and sunny countenance, having on the contrary the general aspect of a walrus drip ping and new-seated on it's wave washed icy throne. He had not ques- toned Longwood with his eyes, but gazed with stupid stare-stupid and cunning-while waiting for the an- swer, into the thick mist and sitting rain that were blowing in on soft breeze from the bay. The style of his dress, whatever it may have been, was hidden by his glittering rain coat; and his sailor helmet conspired with the coat to obliterate all traces of a neck.
 Why do you ask? Have you got a job?"
 He motioned to Longwood with his fat body rather than with his head, and waddled swiftly away along the water front, never turning to see whether he were followed or not, and never drawing a breath until he swung into a barroom called the Cove of Rest, half filled with men who were comforting themselves with quart glasses of steam beer and with pale whisky sold by the measure as an encouragement to the trade. On he went to the back door, which he pushed open with his foot, and then on down the steps that led to the cellar.
 At sight of the black pit below Longwood paused. forgetting for the moment that his negligee outfit was the union card of his perfect safety; but down he followed on the heels of his guide until he was stopped by the bulk of him where he was standing in the darkness knocking softly.
 When a door opened Longwood could see a light so thickly shrouded in tobacco smoke that it seemed to be a mile away. It came from a coal-oil lamp that swung from the ceiling over a table about which three good men were sitting with glasses and liquor for all; and as Longwood pushed past his companion and into the room, the man who had opened the door for him banged it shut, turned the key, seated himself at the table, and looked around at his frier ds.
 "Five!" he said, filling himself a drink and pointing to a chair Set down and get busy with the booze"
 There was a. false front on the whole affair; an appearance of ease and good fellowship that covered over the fluttering heart of canker and expectation. It was the dismal phantom of conversational politeness such as you see at the race track

DO WOMEN SWIG BOOZE
LIKE men in ATLANTA?
Charge Made By Members of
Small Clubs

Atlanta, Ga, April 20.-In fighting
the decree of council revoking it's Ii
cense because women were admitted
with men to promiscuous drinking, at
torneys for the Union and Mechanic
Locker Club say they propose to show
up the question of women drinking
at such fashionable and exclusive
clubs as the Capital City and Pied
mont Driving Clubs.
These attorneys declare that it is a
widely known fact that women go to
these fashionable clubs and drink free
ly and openly with their male es-
corts. They say further that they
propose to subpoena members of these
clubs and make them testify to that
fact when the question comes up in
court.
When council revoked the license of
the Union and Mechanic, it was charg-
ed that only a very small percentage
of the alleged membership had even
paid the initiation fee and that any
body who wished could go in and
buy liquor. 1t was further asserted
that women of questionable character
were admitted freely and drank all
they wanted.
Another locker club was knocked
out on the same score. City Attorney
Mason declares that council has full
authority to revoke the license of any
club in the city, without or without
cause.

WILL WESLEYAN BE
MOVED TO OXFORD?
Movement in That Direction
May Be Started

Emery College, Oxford, Ga, April 90
Professor H. H. Stone, of the de-
partment of applied mathematics and
treasurer of Emory College, proposes
moving Wesleyan from Macon to Ok
ford
Prof. Stone this morning said that
such a plan would surely be launched
in the very near future. Thirty acres
of land will be secured at the north
end of Church street for the campus
of the new college This will place
Emory and Wesleyan facing each other
on hills three-quarters of a mile apart.
The buildings Occupied at present III
Macon can be disposed of at an al
tractive figure and the money used to
erect new buildings here. The facul-
ties of the two institutions will be
merged and greatly enlarged. A dean
will preside over each. DR.. ]. K.
D,ckey will probably be at the head of
the system
The new science building, recently
erected at a cost of fifty thousand dol
lars on he Emory campus, and the
Gambler Library will be used by both
of the colleges. Emory's five hun
dred thousand dollar endowment and
the two hundred thousand dollars
now being raised by the Wesleyan
board of trustees will be combined,
giving the new institution one of the
largest endowments in the South.
