for the first time retired without offer

Shortly thereafter the Colonel sought
his own virtuous couch and prepared
to surrender himself to the first good
sleep in three weeks. He laid the fiat

grew louder; evidently 1t was ap-

murmured. "And they just passed over

CHAPTER XIV.

The success of Bryce Cardigan's
plan for getting his rails down from
Laurel creek depended entirely upon
the whimsy which might seize the crew
of the big mogul that hauled the last
load of logs oct of Cardigans red
woods on Thursday afternoon. Should
the engineer and fireman decide to
leave the locomotive at the logging
camp for the night, Bryce's task would
De as simple as turning hose down a
squirrel hole. On the other hand,
should they run back to Sequoia with
the engine, he and Ogilvy faced the al
tentative of borrowing" it from the
Laguna Grande Lumber company's
rOundhouse; and that operation, in
view of the fact that Pennington's night
watchman would be certain to hear the
engine leaving, offered difficulties.
Throughout the afternoon, after
having sent his orders In writing to
the woods-boss, via George Sea Otter
flor he dared not trust to the tele-
phone), he waited in his Office for a
telephone call from the logging camp
as to what action the engine crew had
taken. Finally, at quarter of six,
curtis, his woods-boss, rang in.
They're staying here all night. sir"
he reported.
House them as far from the log
landing as possible, and organize a
poker game to keep them busy in case
they don't go to bed before eight
o'clock" Bryce ordered. I'm the mean
ulne, send man you can trust-Jim
Harding, who runs the big bull-donkey,

He had scarcely hung up, when
Suck og1lvy came into the Office.
"ell?" he queried casually.
"Safe-o, Buck !" replied Bryce.
Nothing to do but get bite of din
her and proceed to business"
Buck insisted on keeping an engage
ment to dine with MORA, and Bryce
agreed to call for him at the Bon
Husto restaurant. Then Bryce went
nome to dine with his father. Old
cardigan was happier than his son
mad seen him since the return Of the
latter to Sequoia.
Wei, sonny, I've had a mighty
pleasant afternoon" he declared as
Bryce led him to the dinner table.

the Black Minorca nodded vigorously.
Sure!" he assured the Colonel. "Fn

Together Pennington and the Black
Minorca entered the automobile and
proceeded swiftly to the Laguna
Grande Lumber company's mill Office.
From locker the Colonel produced a
repeating rifle and three boxes of
cartridges. which he handed to the
cholo. who departed without further
ado into the night.

A rife shot rang out from the side

understood.

"Safe-o, men," ogilvy called Back

to the men by stepping into the omen
and starting briskly to work with

At the bottom of the pile Of lumber
the Black Minorca was discovered with

also he was suffering from numerous

AMBER FORMED BENEATH SEA
Natural Resin Of Pines Turned Into
Precious Material by the Action
Of the Elements.

The worlds supply Of amber, that
rare and therefore precious substance,
the gold Of the north." as II has been
called. comes from the coast of Sam
lnnd in the eastern Prussian penin-
srla, between the towns of Burstrort
and Palmnicken, and here the shafts
of famous mine run out under the
Baltic and the miners are actually
working under water. Ages ago the
country was land of pine forests
which the ocean overwhelmed; the
pine trees vanished beneath the sur.
face of the sea. and then, century by
century. the wood became fossilized
and the natural resin of the pines was
turned into amber. Millions Of years
were needed TO transform the resin
into amber, and the search for amber
has developed romantic and picturesque
episodes like those that have bccome
part and parcel of the story of gold
and diamonds. An amber mine. how
ever. is not necessarily under water,
and there is an open-air mine AT Palm
nlcken where amber is dug for in much
the same way as diamonds are sought
in the mines Of Kimberley. In nor
mai times this one mine provides oc-
cupation for about 1900 amber
seekers.
