When he came back we took time,

wrought, and beyond that. to dig into

| pipe connections. Gone, likewise, was
! the greater part of the heavy wooden
shaft-lining. a little of this remained
in the upper part of the shaft, but
from point possibly twenty-five feet
down. there was nothing but the bare
rock sides of the square pit swept by
the receding flood.
AS for the hollow roaring noise
which had followed the crash of the
explosion, and which still continued
there was a good and sufficient reason
plainly visible from the pits mouth.
Some twenty feet down, and on the
eastern side of the shaft, a stream of
water big enough to run q goOd-sized
hydro-electric plant was pouring into
the perpendicular cavern, and it was
its plunging descent into the bowels
of the earth which was making the
mimic thunder.
Beasley was the first to find speech.
where the blazes is all that water
comm frOm?" he exploded
That's just what we're going to
find out - 1 barked "Can you and
Daddy handle my weight in a rope
sling2"
They both protested that they could
handle two of me If necessary, and q
sling was quickly rugged and was
lowered into the pit. At the nearer
view thus obtained, some of the mys-
teries were instantly made clear. The
reason why the wooden boxing disap-
peared below q certain point In the
shaft was that it had never extended
any farther down. 1t had been mere
ly box with a bottom land all those
pipe-dream Impressions which had
tried to register themselves on the
day when 1 had my struggle with the
suction-pipe octopus were instantly
translated into facts. I could have
sworn, then, that there was a bottom
in the box, and there was a bottom.
And that other impressiOn-that I had
encountered an inrushing stream of
ice-cold water in the ichilling depths
here was the stream; a foot-thick, /
never-failing cataract, pouring in
through a perfectly good and substan-
tial conduit of twelve-inch iron pipe ! |
In a flash the whole criminal mys-
terry involving the ostensibly flooded
mine was Illuminated for me- Haul |
awayI' l called to the two above |
and when they had drawn me up to
the pits mouth and l could get upon |
my feet, L yipped at Daddy and the |
marshal TO come on, and led them in |

the right-hand gulch.
a brief search revealed precisely /
what I was expecting to find; what /
anyone in possession of the facts pre-
cedent would have expected to find. |
In the middle of small pool slightly
upstream from the path level-a peck
eted bit of water neatly screened and
half hidden by a growth of low
branching spruces-we saw q cone
shaped whirlpool swirl into which a
good third of the stream flow was
vanishing. Below this pool an appar-
emily accidental heaping of rocks
formed a small dam which kept the
little reservoir full.
Without a word, Daddy Hiram and

Tit for Tat


That word "thunderbolt' is hardly
a figure of speech. The thing that hit
us couldn't be compared to ANYTHING
milder than thunder and lightning.
There was a flash, a rending. ripping
roar as If the solid earth were split
ting in two, and the air was filed with
flying fragments and splinters. Air, I
say. but the acrid, choking gas which
filed the shafthOuse could scarcely be
called air

in that wagon" gurgled the old man
at my side, and I could have shouted
for joy at the mere sound of his voice.
since IT was an assurance that he
hadn't been killed outright.
It's only a question of a little time.
now, Daddy" I prophesied. "What
you said yesterday-that Fullerton
would try to get possession without
destroying the property-no longer
holds good. He has evidently decided
that We've got to be Ousted. even at
the expense of building a new shaft
house and installing new machinery.
Why has he changed his mind, when
he knows that he could starve US out
in few days2"

If sOmethin's in the wind-somethin

Then there's another thing" I put
in. "SuppOsing, just for the sake of
argument, that our first guess was
right: that he did take Jeanne to

daughter, Daddy, and I know her, a
little. Nobody but an idiot would sup
pose that she'd live with Fullerton as
his wife for a single minute If he
makes himself your murderer"
1T sure does look that-away to a
man up a tree" admitted the stout
old fighter.

ing that they're not married, / can put
up better fight, or be snuffed out-if

But at this the old man, who, no
longer ago than the yesterday. had
seemed to lean definitely toward the
nO-marriage hypothesis, suddenly
changed front

Then you do believe that jeanne

AT the instigation of the American

passed several bills which benefit the
ex-service man. Among them are.

A Freak Dinner.

Freak dinners, says London Sketch,
are no new invention; they are as
old as the first rich and greedy men.
One that took place some generations
ago was held at Carlton house. Pail
Mall. There were over 1000 guests,
and the two chief features OF the oc-
casion were Big Sam, porter eight
feet high, and a marble canal down
the center of the high table filed with
living gold and silver fish.
