Lines Needed Making.
The boundary line from the summit
Of the Rocky mountains 10 the Gulf Of
Georgia had been located by the former
commission about 1870. AT this time
the country for the most part was an
unknown wilderness, and It was barely
possible for the men TO locate the forty
ninth parallel By astronomical observa-
lions from such points as were access
ible. This left long stretches Of eoun-
try-from five 10 twenty-seven miles-in
which no attempt had been made TO
mark the boundary on the ground. While
the early engineers had definitely settled
the location Of the boundary by stating
that the boundary line should be straight
lines joining the monuments located al
ready and shown on the maps Of that
commission. II was the duty OF the men
OF this party to join these widely sep
arated monuments By straight llnes-to
cut a vista twenty feet wide. ten feet
on either side Of the line. through dense
forests; to locate the position and cree,
permanent monuments at intervals Of
not more than four miles; to extend the
system Of trianguIation-that is. to. de-
termine the latitude and longitude 81
the various monuments-and make 3

! two miles on either side OF the line.

his comrades to pull him up the side Of a

Thomas Riggs, one of the engineers Of
the party, tells a good story Of terrific
windstorm. He said: ''One morning
while we were In camp a frightfui storm

CHAPTER x.
An Interval.

All IntCTVdts
It was on the second day after his
arrival in New York that Stanton
called upon Jessica Floyd. This time
he went more confidently up the stairs
Of the quiet apartment house, sure OF
his right.
AS before, the little old Irishwoman
clad in black silk was waiting to ad-
NIT him; as before, he could have
cried out in the wonder of seeing this
girl who turned F1oyd's candid face
to him and smiled with F1oyd's gray
eyes. Only, this afternoon Jessicia
did not rise from the piano seat to
greet him, but from a chair near a
window.
"Jes is away again." she regretted,
giving him her hand.
II came to see you, by his permits
sion," Stanton returned.
The rich color flushed under her
marvellous skin. that was like no other
woman's he had ever seen. Floyd DIFF
fered there, man from girl. his COM
plexion being much darker and less
translucent.
'Tt is too early to give you tea and
cake" she told him, with playfaness
partly shy. But II you will talk to
me for half an hour, It will be after
four o'clock and can offer you hos
pitality.
What shall talk to you about?" he
doubted. IT am better at listening, !
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1912-08-30

knew Il was the din of the huge en-
gines he heard across thirty miles or
distance.
Hello" another voice took up.
through the drone. Stanton? This
is Mr. Bailey What? oh, why Floyd's
gone on" there was blank clicking
TO Long Island tonight" was faint
ly resumed. Hell be on his job when
you need him. Stanton; go bit easy
on the poor kid. He isn't a machine
Stanton exclaimed something ugly
and hung up the receiver with snap.
Bailey was fool, he mentally sneered,
and Green was another, and he him
self the third. AS for Miss Carlisle,
he had not seen or heard of her since
the trip to Indiana. No more orchids
and laurel. He smiled In sardonic re-
lief and went to open a window to
the pungent October air. Tomorrow
he would see Floyd at the course and
begin the work which intoxicated him
as it does all those who once acquire
the fearless mastery Of a car at high
speeds and taste the strong excite
ment of the racing game. He drew
breath of anticipated exhilaration;
this was the ground where he and
Floyd stood closest in understanding
and where Jessica could never come.
But he wished that she had not
looked so strangely grave and wistfui,
hat evening, It troubled him.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1912-08-30


You have seen her once" Floyd re-
called, as II to himself. He lisped, his
surest sign lof excitement. Stanton
had never heard him use that soft,
slurring speech except on the race
tracks; heard now in the quiet coun-
try surroundings, it infected the listen
er with contagious agitation and
emotion.
81 know, I know" he deprecated.
"But, I might see her more, and see
Ing no better men she might come to
bear with me. Not that there is much
in me worth it-she probably never
would look at me. What am asking
you, now, is whether you want me to
keep away from her. Say yes, and
we will shake hands and drop the sub.
ject for ever"
Very slowly Floyd held out his slen-
der hand.
"Jessica has the right to a chance,
he agreed. I'm not goin' to NEEDLE
with things beyond my understandin'.
An I'd rather have her your wife than
have anything else in the world. Only
you've seen her just once-you can't
tell II you want her. yet"
Stanton shot him one straight, sx.
pressive glance.
"She is like you," slipped from him
involuntarily; then, furious at his be.
trayal of sentiment, he dropped the
others hand. I'VE had better go, or
well miss the train." he bruskly re.
minded.
"Oh, she is like me-" confirmed
Floyd; he turned to look again at the
factory. I'VE are pretty close chums.
Yes, you an had better be gettin' to
the train"
They walked back to the nearest
trolley line, both silent.
The subject was not touched again,
until the following morning, when they
left the train in New York.
when shall L see your" Stanton
questioned. as they exchanged fare
wells in the noisy depot. "To-mor-
ROW."
I'm going to be out of town for the
next two weeks, Mr.. Green tells me, y
Floyd replied. "They want me at the
Mercury factory, and there are some
other trips, too, believe. Jessica IL
going to be rather deserted; II you
happen to look her up, no doubt she
would be glad to speak to some one
besides her nurse"
Thank YOU" accepted Stanton, az
carelessly. Take care of yourself"
He had not reached the exit when
Floyd overlook him.
Here are the entries for the Cur
race" he painted, thrusting folded
newspaper into Stanton's hand. There
are two Atalanta cars to run against
us. It's You who need to take care
of yourself, until afterward"
Floyd, wait! What do you mean
Do you really think"
But his mechanician evaded the
question.
Some people are hoodoos." he
laughed Keep away from them
please. Good-by."
He had not spoken Valerie Carlisle's
name, yet Stanton knew against whom
he warned. And the melodramatiC
absurdity Of the idea did not prevent

an odd thrill of discomfort and inse-
curity, from which he took his usual
refuge in roughness.
I'm not in the habit of hiding from
people, hoodoos or not. Good-by."
"Oh, very WE'LL" acquiesced Floyd
oddly. "But If you won't take care OF
yourself Stanton"
"Well, what?"
Never mind"
