Hold up your right hand, with the
thumb and forefnger we'll apart Do
the same with your left and bring it
up above your right, so that the tips
of the forefngers join, but those of
the thumb are little apart. The oval
gap represents the great bay of Cold
en-, mighty harbOr, deep enough for
all the navies of the world to swim
in, a noble anchorage for commerce,
dotted here and there with islands.
Far to the northeast. near the knuckle
Of your left foref1nger, a river flows
in, tapping two mighty valleys, TOO far
away to serve Golden with water.
Opposite Golden, across the narrow
strait where bay meets sea, looms the
great mount of Serene, covered with
redwoods that extend back of it, up
to the northern boundary of the state,
a region, half exploited, of great
beauty, vast logging prospects, partly
developed, of small, rich valleys.
Looking to the sea, to Serene, across
the bay to the mainland, Golden
queens it over an unsurpassed pano-
rama. On Semaphore hill, where ships
were signaled in the earlier days, Ca
leb Warner shared the apartment Of
Ted Baxter, on the top floor of an am
bilious apartment building.
Caleb, with none too large a capital,
would have chosen a less expensive,
less pretentious dwelling, but he had
come there first as a guest of Baxter
and now they divided two bedrooms,
equal expense. In the old Columbian
days the two had become fast friends.
It had been to a large extent the at
traction of opposites. Caleb, study
ing with enthusiasm, taking his games
seriously. Baxter, handsome, ire
sponsible, generous, blessed with an
array Of superficial qualities that
made him a universal favorite And
with a tendency to dissipation that
Caleb fancied he had somewhat
checked.r.'i :, ":|
But that was years ago and he
found Baxter fairly embarked upon
the pastime Of spending all the money
he could get hOld or IN the pursuit Of
amusement-"g getting all the fun he
could out Of life"-he styled it. Caleb
fancied he inherited this facility from
his mother a widow who spent her
time at fashionable resorts, West and
East, as fashion demanded, who tried
to forget her age and who let her son.
to a great extent, travel his own path
while she followed hers. Mrs. Baxter
held the command of the Baxter es-
tate. She made her son a fairly lib
eral allowance but kept the larger
portion for herself. Ultimately, it
seemed, it would come to Baxter, If
his mother remained unmarried.

from the sheath and thrust it back
Then he caught the horn Of the saddle
with one hand, twisted the fingers of

set foot in stirrup and, as the brute
swung in plunging half-circle, held
himself c)ose-pressed to it's withers be-

"We mus go along" he said. 1.-THE
senor mus not lose his train."@'
Those were the last words he spoke
until they reached the station a few
minutes before the train pulled In. He
waited until Caleb mounted the plat
form, then, with an "Adios, senor,"
was gone, mastering the curvetting
mustang and leading Ell Don.
Caleb, in the smoker, concluded at
last that the Mexican's fidelity, tinged
perhaps, by some injury in the fight
from which he had never recovered
some slight lesion in his brain from
the strain and excitement, had made
him mOnomaniac concerning the
safety Of his young mistress. He pos
sessed jealousy that he shared with
Maria. 1t was an obsession with both
of them.
"Pd hate to be the man who had
Luis Padilla on his track" he told
himself, wondering If the ample Ma
ria would also be transformed into a
whirlwind Of avenging fury. Here

was far cry to New England. Some

as altogether incongruous, farfetched.

Defense Opens Today
IH.nAinuad from PadA Onel

ordinates summoned by the defense
will be called upon to testify as to
LIQUOR conditions in Kennebec coun-
ty.
It is intimated that Sheriff Cum
mings will take the stand in his own
behalf; that he will admit having
given liquor away, but that it was
always as humanitarian act IN
cases of sickness where liquor was
needed and that the good of human
ity warranted such course especi-
ally where the alcohol he gave away
was for bathing purposes; and that
the sheriff will give the names of
those to whom he has given liquor
and the reasons for so doing. The
sheriff, it is understood, will testify
that he visited the home Of Maude
Clement on Swan street in Augusta.
but that he went there in his official
capacity as he visited other places.
Forty witnesses will testify for the
defense and a number of these will
be character witnesses, it Is expected.
The presentation of the defense will
probably run into next week and If
completed on Monday afternoon ad-
journment will probably be taken to
Wednesday or Thursday when the
arguments will be made. Judge Jo-
seph E. F. Connolly of Portland, Sc
nior counsel for Sheriff Cummings,
arrived in the city last evening.
