A Corner of His Heart.

n corner OF Ills heart.
The second evening after the closure
Richard was dining with the Mar
shalls In their car. The Palmyra was
to pull out the next day. Hardin's
name was brought up by Tod Mar
shall. "She was light potatoes" he
dismissed the woman. 'But she's
broken the mans spirit"
Richard, 1t was discovered, had
nothing to say on the subject of the
elopement.
''I'm sorry his sister is not here to-
night" began Marshall mischievously.
II did ask her, Tod" Claudia has

Richard gulped down his coffee,
boiling. 'Mrs. Marshall, will you let
me run away early?" Why should he
give any excuse? They knew what he
was running away for
He made his way to the little white
tent on the far side of the trapezium.
Times, by the door, was bidding good
by to Sonora Maldonado.
He forgot to greet the Mexican. She
stood waiting; her eyes full of him.
Surely, the kind senior had something
to say to her? He had taken the white
girls hand. He was staring into the
white girls eyes. Something came to
her, memory like forgotten music.
Silently, she slipped away into the
night.
Richard would not release lines

look in his.

you were going. You were running

"You know that I love you! 1 have
been waiting for this minute, this
woman, all these lonely years."
Her head she kept turned from him.
He could not see the little maternal
smile that ran around the curves of
her mouth. Those years, filed to the
brim with stern work, had not been
lonely. Lonely moments he had had,
that was all.
Nothing for mel" He stopped, and
made her face him, by taking both of
her hands in his.
She would not look at him vet,
would not meet the look which ALWAYS

he'll ever have" He turned a minute
later to see his chief standing bare
headed. His own cap came off.
Were buryIng the lad" said Mar
shall.
The minute Of funeral had to be
pushed aside. The river would not
wait. Train after train was rushed.on
to the trestles; wave after wave hit
them. But perceptibly the dam was
steadying. The rapid fire of rock was
telling.
Another ridge Of yellow waters rose.
The roll Of water came slowly, dwin-
ding as 1t came: 1t broke against the
trestle weakly. For the first time the
trestle never shuddered. Workers and
watchers breathed as a unit the first
deep breath that night. There was a
change. Every eye was on the river
where 1t touched the rim Of the dam.
Suddenly a ehorused cry rose. The
river had stopped rising. The whistles
screamed themselves hoarse.
And then girl, sitting on the bank,
saw two men grab each other by the
hand. She was too far away to hear
their voices, but the sun, rising red
through the banks Of smoke, fell on
the blackened faces of her brother and
Richard. She did not care who saw
her crying.

cano's edge; and the swift eruption
scorched her. 1t was the pitiable wreck
Of dignity, of pride. His words were
Incoherent; his wrath involved his sis
ter, crouching in tears. Innes shrank
from him, the man she did not know.
The coarse streak was uncovered in all
its responsiveness. He turned on Innes
suddenly. She was crying, huddled
heap on the couch.
1--WE had enough crying-between
you and Gerty. VIII you get out? I've
got to have some Sleep"
Through her sobs he could make out
that she was afraid to leave him.
"Well, then, I'll go. I'm used to hav-
ing to leave my own tent. A dogs life. ;"
He flung out into the night.

Something was wrong. She left her

shining CHASTITY pale under the SCOT,

edge. Breathlessly all watched the
rushing water fling itself over the dam.
For several hushed seconds the struc-
ture could not be seen. When the
foam fell a cheer went up. The dam
was standing. Silent, 1t was supposed,
was bringing In his train.
Above the distant Jagged line Of
mountains rose red ball. A new day
began. And again the Dragon rose; a
mountain Of water came rolling dam

rails.

There was long wait before any

though 1t were a tennis ball, sent 1t
hurting down the lower face Of the
dam.
Things began to go wild. The men
were growing reckless. They were
sagging toward exhaustion; mistakes
were made. Another rock, as heavy as
the last, was worked toward the edge.
Men were thick about It with crow
bars. They hurried. One concerted
effort, drawing back as the rock top
pied over the edge. One man was too
slow, or too tired He slipped. The
watchers on the bank saw a flash of
waving arms, heard cry; they had

There was hush Of horror; a halt.
