A Fire of Little Sticks

Two days after the arrival of the
letter from Washington announcing
the approaching invasion of private
capital. Brouillard. returning from a
horseback trip to the Buckskin, where
Arson and Griffith were setting grade
stakes for the canal diggers, found a
visitor awaiting him in the camp head
quarters office.
One glance at the thickbodied,
heavy-faced man chewing an extinct
cigar while he made himself comfort
able in the only approach to a loung-
ing chair that the office afforded was
sufficient tc awaken an alert antago-
nism. The big man introduced him
self without taking the trouble to get
out of his chair.

hard-bitted mouth to the other. You're

it?"
"Brouillard, if you please" was the
crisp correction. And then with
careful effacement of the final saving
trace of hospitality in tone or manner:

demanded half angrily.
"oh. nothing much; nothing to make
you hot at him. He said he gathered
the notion hat the young sorehead
was trying to bully you"
He was. was the brittle admission.
"See here. Grizzly"
The thing to be seen was a small
buckskin bag which, when opened,
gave up paper packet folded like a
medicine powder. The paper contained
a spoonful of dust and pellets OF metal
of duh yellow luster.
The photographer drew a long
breath and fingered the. nuggets.
"Gold-placer gold" he exclaimed,
and Broulllard nodded and went ON to
tell how he had come by the bag and
its contents.
"Massingale had an ak to grind, Of
course. You may remember that
Harding talked loosely about the Mas
singale opposition to the building Of
the dam. There was nothing in it.
The opposition was purely personal,
and it was directed against Harding
himself, with Amy Massingale for the
exciting cause"
That girl?-the elemental brute!"
Grislow broke In warmly. He knew
the miners daughter fairly well by
this time, and In common with every
man on the staff, not excepting the
stairs chief, would have fought for
her in any cause
Brouillard nodded. Il don't know
what Harding did, but Smith, the Tri-
angle-Circle foreman, tells me that
Steve was on the warpath; he told
Harding when he left, lest summer,
that If he ever came back to Niquoia,
he'd come to stay-and stay dead"
Il never did like Harding any too
well, was the photographers defni-
tive comment. and Brouillard went
back to the matter of the mornings
seance and its golden outcome.
That is only little side issue
Steve Massingale came to me this
morning with a proposal that was
about as cold-blooded as a slap in the
face. Naturally, for good business rea.

to give me block of the stock if I'd

"Well?" queried Grislow.
Exactly. You can imagine what
told him. Then he began to bully and
pulled the club on me-"
Again Grislow's smile was jocose.
