wandered about, all eyes and ears As
yet we had not many acquaintance
and could not enter into the intimate
bantering life of the old timers. There
was enough to interest us, however. A
good many were beginning to show
the drink. After long period of hard
labor even the most respectable of the
miners would have at times strange
reactions. That is another tale, how
ever and on this Sunday the drinking
was productive only of considerable
noise and Boosting. Two old dodgers,
head to head. were Dragging laborious-
ly of their proves as cooks. A small
but interested group egged them on.
Yank and | then thought of going
back to camp and began to look around
after Johnny, who had disappeared,
when McNally rolled up. inviting US
to sup with him.
"You don't want to go home yet

ers Of its kind, save that the cattle
were in better shape, and the men
walking alongside, of the tall, compe-
tent backwoodsman type, seemed we'll
and hearty. But perhaps hundred
yards ahead of the leading wagon
came horse, the only horse in the
outfit, and on it, riding sidesaddle, was
a girl. She was a very pretty red
checked girl, and she must have stop
ped within a half mile or so of the
camp in order to get herself up for this
impressive entrance. Her dress was
Of blue calico, with white yoke and
heavy floGnces or panniers. Around
her neck was a black velvet ribbon.
On her head was big leghorn hat
with red roses. She rode through the
town, her head high, like a princess,
and we all cheered her like mad. Not
once did she look at us, but I could see
her bosom heaving with excitement be-
meath her calico and her nostrils wide.
She was a remarkably pretty girl, and
this was certainly the moment of he1
triumph.
About this time we had to come to
some sort of a decision, for our provi-
Sions were about exhausted. We had
no desire to replenish our stock from
that Of the local storekeeper. We were
doing pretty well in the diggings, but
we had also fairly healthy appetites,
and am convinced that at the prices
that man charged we should have no
more than kept even. Williams, the
storekeeper, was levying double prof
it's, one from US and one from the
overland immigrants. Don Gaspar
proposed we send out Vasquez with all
the horses to restock at Suffers Fort.
We were a trif1e doubtful as to wheth-
er Vasquez would ever come back, but
Don Gaspar seemed to have confidence
in his man. Finally, though a little
doubtfully, we came to the plan. Don
Gaspar sent out also to Mcclellan for
safe keeping his accumulations of gold
dust, but we did not go quite that far
In view Of probable high prices we in
trusted him with eighteen ounces for
the purchase of goods.

We looked about us for the first
time with seeing eyes. The little up

the sky, and at our backs across the
way the pines stood thick Serried.
were circling slowly. Somehow the
leisurely swing Of these unhasting birds
struck from us the feveriSh hurry that
had lately filled our souls. We drew
deep breathS, and for the first time
the great peace and majesty Of these
California mountains cooled our spirits.
II think it's Il bully place, Yank,'
said Johnny soberly, and that little
bench up above us looks fiat
We clambered across the slant of the
flower Spanglcd meadow to the bench,
just within the fringe of the pines. 1t
proved to be fiat, and from the edge
of it down the hill seeped little spring
marked by the feathery bracken. We
entered cool green place, peopled
with shadows and the rare, considered
notes of soft voiced birds. Just over
our threshold, as it were, was the sun
lit, chirpy, buzzing, bright colored busy
world. Overhead q wind of many
voices hummed through the pine tops.
The golden sunlight flooded the noun
tains opposite, flashed from the stream,
lay languorous on the meadow. Long
bars of it slanted through an unguess-

with magic the very tops Of the trees
over our heads. The sheen of the pre-
cious metal was over the land.

In John Cudahy, candidate for lieu
tenant governor on the Democratic
ticket, the Democratic party of Wis
consin has chosen one of the most pro-
gressive young>men In the state While
he has never been active in politics in
any way and great pressure had to be
brought to bear on him to become a
candidate, he has been prominently ac-
tive in every movement that had to do
with the welfare of Milwaukee.
Though a comparatively young man,
Cudahy has risen within the last few
years by dint of perseverance and un-
usual ability to be recognized as one
of the leading attorneys of the state.
He has often declared that the great
est honor that could ever be conferred
on him would be to be recognized as
the poor mans attorney"
81 would thousand times rather be
in a position to befriend poor honest
workingman and make him happy than
to possess the worlds riches" he once
said II adopted the profession of law
that might be of service to my fellow
man. If | can ever hope to have an
opportunity to be of help to humanity,
even to the smallest degree, l shall feel
that | have accomplished something
in life"
Cudahy received his preliminary edu-
catiOnal training in his native city,
Milwaukee, and afterwards took up a
course of studies in Harvard university
where he graduated with much honor.
Following his graduation there he
studied law at the University of Wis
consin where he had the highest hon
orS conferred on him.
Cudahy, through his manly person
atty, unassuming manners "and quiet
disposition, has following in Milwau-
kee and throughout the state that is le-
gion. His strength not only among
Democrats but among all parties has
made him the popular choice for lieu
tenant governor.

long hours, beneath a scorching sun,
ment. We did not know when to quit,
but the sun at last decided it for us by
dipping below the mountains to the
west.
The following days were replicas Of
the first. We ate hurriedly at odd
times; we worked feverishly; we sank
into our tumbled blankets at night too
tired to wiggle. But the buckskin sack
of gold was swelling and rounding out
most satisfactorily. By the end Of the
week it contained over pound!
But the long hours, the excitement
and the inadequate food told on our
nerves. We snapped at each other
impatiently at times and once or twice
came near to open Quarrelng. Johnny
and | were constantly pecking at each
other over the most trivial concerns.
One morning we were halfway to
the bar when we remembered that we
had neglected to picket out the horses.
1t was necessary for one of us to go
back. and we were all reluctant to
do so.

tied them up yesterday, anyway"
Johnny caught this.

lently. II couldn't hear. Speak upr'
We were flushed and eying each 9th

"That'll do! said Yank, with an un-
expected tone Of authority. Nobody
will go back and nobody will go ahead.
Well just sit down on this log yere
while we smoke one pipe apiece. I've
got something to say"
Johnny and 1 turned on him with a
certain belligerency mingled with sur
prise. Yank had so habitually acted
the part of taciturnity that his decided
air of authority confused us. His
SLOUGH had Strengthened; his head was
up; his mild eye sparkled. Suddenly l

ment's hesitation we sat down on the
log.
"Now," said Yank firmly, Its about
time we took stock. We been here

CHAPTER XIV.
At Hangman's Gulch.

UR visit to the town we post
pOned from day to day be-
cause we were either too busy
~ or too tired. We thought we
could about figure out what that crude
sort Of village would be like. Then on
Saturday evening our neighbor with
the twinkling eye-whom we called
McNally without conviction because
he told us to-infOrmed us that there
would be a miners meeting next day
and that we would be expected to at
tend.
Accordingly we visited the town.
The street was full of men idling slow
ly to and fro. All the larger structures
were wide open, and from within could
be heard the sounds of hurdy-gurdies.
loud laughter and noisy talk. At one
end of the street group was organic
ing a horse race, and toward this Don
Gaspar took his immediate departure.
A smaller group surrounded two wres-
tiers. At one side a jumping match
was going on.
The two gambling places and saloons
were hard at it. The low rooms were
full Of smoke and crowded with slow
ly jostling men. In contrast to the
deadly quiet of such places in San
Francisco, these were full of noise
and hubbub. The men moved restless
ly, threw down their little bags Of dust
impatiently and accepted victory or
defeat with very audible comments.
The gamblers, dressed in black, pale,
sat steady eyed and silent behind their
layouts.
1t was about 4 o'clock when the
meeting was brought to formal con-
clusion The crowd dispersed slowly
in different directions and to its differ
ent occupations and amusements. We

scuttling back to the hole after more

contestant in a candle race hurries
back to the starting point to get his
candle relighted.
We PANIED that dirt clumsily and
hastily enough and undoubtedly lost
much valuable sand oversize, but we
ended each with string Of color. We
crowded together, comparing our pans.
Then we went crazy. I suppose we
had about quarter of a dollars worth
Of gold between US, but that was not
the point. The long journey with all
its hardships and adventures, the toll,
the uncertainty, the hopes, the disap-
pointments and reactions had at last
their visible tangible conclusion. The
tiny fiecks Of gold were a symbol. We
yapped aloud, we kicked up our heels,
we shook hands, we finally joined
hands and danced around and around.
We worked with entire absorption,
quite oblivious to all that was going
on about US. It was only by accident
that Yank looked up at last, so | do
not know how long Don Gaspar had
been there.
"Will you look at that?" cried Yank
Don Gaspar, still in his embroidered
boots, his crimson velvet breeches, his
white linen and his sombrero, but
without the blue and silver jacket, was
busily welding a pickax a hundred
feet or SO away. His companion, Or
servant, was doing the heavier shovel
work
"Why, oh, why" breathed Johnny at
last, edo you suppose, if he must mine,
he doesn't buy himself suit Of dun
garees or a flannel Shirt"
"IH bet it's the first hard work he
ever did in his life" surmised Yank.
"And I'll bet he won't do that very
long," 1 guessed.
But Don Gaspar seemed to have
more sticking power than we gave him
credit for. We did not pay him much
further attention, for we were busy
with our own affairs, but every time
we glanced in his direction he appear
ed to be still at it. Our sack of sand
was growing heavier, as, indeed, were
our limbs. AS a matter of fact we
had been at harder work than any Of
us had been accustomed to for very

believe there was ever president

decide. They have come in punches.
He hasn't always pleased me, just as

comes close to being nothing more
than cheap fault finding.
"A fool or a coward would have had

President Wilson's Mexican policy has
been wise and just and courageous.
Belgium? Hindsight! In the light
