cause them to perish if each year the

the wind in preventing the spread OF

1t is, he claims. not the wind, as
such. that prevents sound from trav-

strength of the wind. If, for instance.
the wind Is stronger above than be
low. or stronger at one side, its eff
feet will be to tilt the sound waves

ences of temperature in the air also
cause detection of the waves of sound.
Other atmospheric causes exist which

a year earlier with a thousand dol

said was, I'm reasonably certain that

him was inevitable, 1 was perfectly

I hope you've been well and clipper,
all these weeks"
I said what l was obliged to, and
wasn't any too confoundedly cordial
about it, either, I guess.
Fullerton drew up a chair and began
TO talk, much as if we'd invited him to.
about his Woodworking year in South
America; about the fabulously rich
mines in that far-away Utopia of the
gold-diggerS ; about his voyage up from
the Isthmus; about the OddneSS of his
meeting me on the train, combined
with the more excruciating oddness of
his meeting me again, here in the East
ern TimanyOnis things like that.
He was just comfortably surging
along in the swing of it when a door
opened behind US and he jumped up
with another ''Well, well, look who's
hereT and when 1 turned, he was
holding Jeanie's two hands in his and
braying over her like a wild ass of the
plains. And, if you'll believe me, that
girl had gone and changed her dress
That is what she went to do when she
slipped out and left me to stare at her
empty chair, after she had heard her
father say, "Well. hello, Charley Bull
lerton!"
Il was all off with me from that
time on. For what was left of the
evening. Fullerton played a solo. I
got full-up on the performance about
nine o'clock, and climbed my ladder
and went to bed, muffiing my head in
the blankets so that 1 wouldn't have
to lie there and listen to the bagpipe
drone of BulIerton's voice in the room
below.
[ hoped-without the least shadow of
reason for the hope, of course-that
the next morning would show me a
hole in the atmosphere in the space
that Fullerton had occupied. But
there was no such luck. He was pres
ent at the breakfast table, as large
as life and twice as talkative.
I made my escape from the cabin
as soon as 1 could and tramped over
to the mine. A glance into the shaft
showed the black pool in its depths as
placid and untroubled as if we hadn't
Just lifted a million or so cubic feet
of water out of it by hard labor.
In morose encouragement 1 recalled
the few things I had learned about
drowned mines while I was knocking
about in the Cripple Greek district
trying to trace Fullerton. Particular
ly remembered my talk with Hilton,
the man who had finally put me upon
what had proved to be the right track
In the tracing job. He had talked
quite freely. Sometimes the flood was
only the tapping of an underground
stream, as when one digs a well; in
other cases-and these were most COM
mon In the Cripple Greek region
the source of the flood would be found
in a buried lake or reservoir, large or
not so large, as the luck might have
it. If the source were q lake-so Hill
ton had said-there was little use In
trying to pump the mine dry.
