the United States that the worst that
could happen would be the ordering
Of troops into Mexico for the mere
performance Of police duty.
Obviously, too, they believed that
with strong United States forces
upon land sea hemming in the insur-
gents and cutting them off from out
side assistance, peace would be cas-
lily restored in Mexico and the Diaz
government would re-establish con-
troll. But the insurrection appears to
be spreading, it's forces to be increas-
ing, and this despite the action of
the United States government and
the suspension by Mexico of all con-
stitutional guarantees Of individual
rights.
= In sending troops to the border,
President Taft evidently acted with
haste and without due consideration
of possible consequences. It is also
evident that he acted without accur-
ate information either respecting the
strength of the insurrection or that
of the Mexican government.

 ''She was the sweetest thing ever saw," exclaimed the tie cutters wife rapturously. 'Only she couldn't talk. Two or three times she wrote things to me on slip of paper"
 Couldn't talk" repeated Gregson as the two men walked leisurely back to the boarding house. 'What the deuce do youa suppose that means. Jack?'
 ''I'm not supposing." replied How land indiEerently. We've had enough of this pretty face. Gregson. I'm going morning?s
 ''As soon as we've had breakfast, if you're anxious"
 ''I am Good night.'
 Rowland went to his room, but it was not to sleep. He was satisfied that a mysterious peril of some kind pawaited him at the camp on the We kusko, but he gave up trying to fath- om the reason for this peril, accepting in his businesslike way the fact that it did exist and that inza short time it would probably explain itself. The one puzzling factor which he could not drive out of his thoughts was the girl. Her sweet face haunted him.
 He went to bed, but it was a long time before he fell asleep. It seemed to him that he had scarcely closed his eyes when a pounding on the door aroused him. and he awoke to find the early light of dawn creeping through the narrow window of his room. A few minutes later he joined Gregson, who was ready for breakfast.
 'The slelIge and dogs are waiting," he greeted. As they seated themselves at the table he added: i've changed my mind since last night, Rowland. I'm not going back with you. It's ab- solutely unnecessary. for Thofne can put you on to everything at the camp, and I'd rather lose six months salary than take that sledge ride again. You won't mind. will you?"
 'To be honest, Gregson, I don't be- lieve you'd be particularly cheerful company. What sort of fellow is the driver?"
 we call him Jackpine, a Cree In- dian, and he's the one faithful slave of Thorne and myself at Wekusko. Hunts for us. cooks for us and watch es after things generally. You'll like him all right"

 haggard. The smile that came to his lips as he held out hand to Rowland gave to his death white face an ap- pearance even more ghastly.
 Hello, Jack1' he greeted. Whats the matter, man? Do look like a ghost?"
 What is the matter, Thorne? found Gpegson half dying at Le Pas, and now you''--
 'It's a wonder you're not reading my name on little board slab instead of seeing yours truly in flesh and blood, Jack," laughed Thorne nervous ly. "A ton of rock. mana ton >of rock, and was under it."
 Over Thorne's shoulder the young engineer caught a glimpse of the Cree's face. A dark flash had shot into his eyes. His teeth gleamed for an in- stant between his tense lips in some thing that might have been a sheer.
 Thorne sat down, rubbing his hands before the fire.
 We've been unfortunate, Jack," he said slowly. ''Gregson and have had the worst kind of luck since the day we struck this camp, and we're no longer fit for the job. It will take us six months to get on our feet again. You'll find everything here in good condition. The line is blaZed straight to the bay. We've got 300 good men, plenty of supplies, and so far as I know you'll not find a disaffected hand on the Wekusko. Probably Gregson and I viii take hold of the Le Pas end of the liue in the spring. It's cer- tainly up to you to build the roadway to the bay"
 "I'm sorry things have gone badly" replied Rowland. He leaned forward until his face was close to his com panion's. "Thorne, is there q man up here named Croisset or a girl called Meleese?"
 He watched the senior engineer closely Nothing to confirm his suspi- cions came into Thorne's face. Thorne looked up, a little surprised at the tone of the others voice.
 "Not that know of, Jack. Anything particular"
 "Just a word I've got for them-if they're here,' replied Rowland care lessly. Are these my quarters?'
