CHAPTER NV.

"There Is No Law for a Genius"
 March came in like lamb with delicate weather. crystal clear and opal bright. and with it came Miss Ordway Sandry was glad to see her, but the critical point was at hand and he scarce took time to eat or sleep from the great work of the contract
 The mammoth raft was ready, the largest, according to Daily, that the camp had ever sent out in all it's life, and a special boat from the Portland Mills company would lay off Yaquina to receive it on the sixteenth.
 On the night of the second, Daily caught a glimmer of white on the lin tel. It was a paper, stuck in with thumb-taek
 Watch your raft" it said, for pow der
 That was all, and it was unsigned Daily told Sandry of the incident and showed the warning.
 So for the remaining nights the great raft was lighted from end to end and four of the Indians patrolled it in shifts, armed with rifles and un. der orders to shoot at the first sign Of trouble
 The work went forward rapidly. The Siwashes. born and raised in the tim Der country, knew all the work of the camp and they needed no driving.

said, but his voice had fallen to 8 whisper, whisper that was caress. laden as heavily with wistful sadness as whisper might be, and don't fret 1 am all right"
 Without word obedient to him as the primal woman ever is to man, Siletz went away in the night toward the cookshack.
 AS she passed up the path she all most brushed the garments of Poppy Ordway, standing in rigid silence, her hands shut in the folds of her gowr her rose lips ashen, her eyes strained wide
 "Fcol! Fool! Fool!" the woman was thinking in rage of passion. Why didn't l suspect? She Is some thing to him-she has her charm. There is danger in her to me-oh, Sandry, you stupid, simple heart!" For Poppy Ordway had heard the ca ress of that lowered voice. The new passion in her took fright, and furi. ous, choking rage sent the blood hot upon her heart
 The next morning he found upon his window-ledge handful of fern and a spray of tiny, yellow, waxlike flowers that were beginning to show where the little streams tore down the noun tains. lining their rocky beds. He took them in and put them away in a drawer among his papers, silent voice of sVmDathV that was as deiicate az it was strong.
 That morning when Poppy ordway encountered Siletz the bright smile she gave her covered sudden hatred that had sprung, full grown, from a mans low whisper: and the bad times that followed for the girl had their inception then.
The Huttig news., 1916-02-12

bursting through the rest, the jingle of her words, the amazed eomprehen- sion of them
 The days that followed were hard ones for the young owner of the Dill lingworth. He did not see that he had taken the silent little girl of the hills. and that the dominant clever woman of the world had taken him. Yet such were -he facts in the vague, half formed shape that affairs had as- sumed.
 With splendid tact Miss Ordway kept away from him, presenting at such times as they chanced to meet serene poise that was as charming as her abandon had been that night by the rollway On the other hand, Siletz watched him with troubled eyes. There was that in features and voice that frightened her as a loving woman is ever frightened when trouble rides the shoulder of the beloved.
 Therefore one night soon after San drys talk with Miss Ordway, Siletz followed him as he went to the office after supper. 1t was black night, and Sandrs gas not aware of her pres enee until touch fell on his shoul der, almost as light and soft as that of the mist upon his. face.
 "Sandry," said Siletz
 He turned swiftly and all the vex- atious ache of his heart seemed to cul minate suddenly in a desire to take her in his arms.
 Yes? he said, yielding to the in- f1uence of the misty darkness and the nearness of this girl who typifed the wild so alluringly, s'the Night Wind breathes upon my heart. Why is it. Little SIetz?"
 ''Why-why," stammered SiletZ, 'T hardly know. Yet-there is some thing"
 She fell silent a moment, standing beside him.
 The winds of God are heavy on my soul, Sandry," she said at last ear are sad. What can l do-oh, what can 1 do to help?3
 There was in her voice the simple cry of a sympathy so intense that it was anguish, and Sandry's lips tight ened in the darkness.
 For heady moment he could scarce resist the bidding of the lawless thrill that she was ever capable of sending through him, to take her into his arms as he had done that day when she beneld the sea. But tardy thought of Miss Ordway shut his hands upon themselves and steadied his voice.
 He put his hands upon her shoul ders and turned her round.
 "Go back to Ma Daily, child,' he

 That day he got his first letter from Poppy Ordway. It was heavy and satlny and it breathed an insidious perfume.
 Also it was brilliant with excitement and hinted at great things.
 I'm certain Hampdens crooked, D she wrote; I've found a man who knows him-and he's in the commis- sioner's office. He's young and he's susceptible and he thinks Pm one of the 'ring!'

The Gall of the Wind.

The night lay thick over the Silet2 country. High above the pine tops sang with a roar, soft-voiced but far reaching as thunder Mystery and loneliness pressed upon the wilder ness like finger. It quivered the sharp ears of Black Bolt pricked for ward, listening, it padded the feet of Coosnah running ahead in the trail, but upon Siletz it's touch was lost She, too, was of the forest on night like this; she, too, was free of It's hid den paths. Hour after hour they threaded the familiar way, and pres ently the forest frightened, fell away left them at the steep shore of the Siletz river, gurg1ing along in the darkness, swift and shallow.
 Fields and pastures lay here upon right and left and cabins stood squat 1n the shadows. This was the headquar ters of the reservation. Through the small settlement, up lane and across

He's offered in my case, specially-to come down on the price of my patent two hun dred dollars-of course clandestinely; I'm to say nothing about it to the 'ringi Ye godsi I'm wild with the luck. More later"
 February was passing. The days of fitful sunlight were becoming more frequent. The camp was humming with business. Silent, bent on the thing in hand, the Indians worked without need of encouragement.
 The slough was bank-fuH and it's surface was covered from dawn to dark with floor of logs slowly drift ing on every tide downward to the backwater.
 At the slough,s mouth a huge cradle was slowly forming Tn it's braces Here the little loading donkey puffed and footed, graphing many-ton tim Ders with it's two drag hooks, placing them here and there. The mass of chains covered the bottom Of the cradle a few feet apart.
 Twelve men worked continually at the great marine monster, packing the logs inside the cradle, carrying the giant chains up and over as the snug floor reached the top, iacing the whole together and at last lifting the center gently. thus giving to the thing it's likeness to vast cigar

 we can't trust Hampden minute. John," said Sandry; I'm learning sus- picion." Indeed he was learning many things. Only John Daily In the sanity of his just nature watched this Johnny Eastern take his rough knocks and come up with his teeth set.
 These two were growing together in a slow affection. The big room had, in sense, become home to Sandry and the evenings when Ma sat in her little rocker and Siletz braided her mats with Coosnah beside her filled his toil-worn soul with peace.
 The Preacher had slipped away as silently and mysteriously as he had come, with blessing upon all and a promise to return-"when you shall need me, my children"

will Sandry supplied the question:
 ''What?"
 You" said Miss Ordway in whis- per.
 With her pretty, inimitable gesture of daring she put up hand, laid 1t against his cheek and drew his face toward her.
 Boy" she said in curiously choked tone, as if emotion dominated ger, oh, boy! With your youth and your eagerness, your inherent strength and your losing battle! Did you not know that you were as fire to me?'
 She slipped off the log and stood be- fore him, her hands clasned across her breast and all her magnificent beauty a lure in the spring dusk.
 An" she laughed recklessly, you have set me flaming, like a line of fire at night! And l care nothing that tell you--there is no law for a gen ius!"
 And, turning swiftly. she went down the slope, away from him, leaving him as she had done once before with his head whiriing under the spell of her beauty and her daring. But this time she had left far more, for within him there surge6 and rioted emotions that deGed control-joy and triumph and savage desire to even scores with the man who had so cruelty pressed him, relief at the prospect of saving so cas- fly his East Belt and his future; and,
