the strange rapids and decide whether
he could run them or would have to
carry around. So Esau hid his canoe,
went deep into the forest, boiled his
tea over a diminutive fire masked
from the river by thick timber, ate.
and slept.
Later in the morning he walked
downstream to the head Of the rapids.
Across the river was the cleared space
at the end of a portage trail. The
whitewater was impossible; the In
dams carried around it. But the vet
eran, who had passed his life on the
wild rivers of western Kiwedin, did
not return to his canoe and drop down
to the portage. Along the opposite
shore he followed the rock-scarred
whitewater as it foamed and churned
and Numbered through a half-mile Of
clamoring chaos. Then he returned
to his canoe and started downstream
for the head of the portage. for not
even the trained eyes of Esau Otchig
who, In his youth, had run the Chutes
of Death on the Winisk and the Long
Sault of the Mad river, had found
way through for his canoe.
The old Indian was crossing the
river a quarter-mile above the rapids,
when, to his CONSERVATION, two men
appeared on the portage.
With a lunge of his paddle Esau
swung the nose of the canoe to the OPP
posite shore. Was it Paradis on his
way up river, or travelling Ojibwas
who would pay him slight attention?

CHAPTER VIII

= When Esau left Jim and Omar and
started down the Sturgeon river on
his mad mission in search of Jingwak.
he travelled all the first night, watch
ing the passing shores for the red en-
bers of dying fire. For, once Para
dis was warned of the coming of the
men from Sunset House, he would
lose no time in guarding the river
road over which they must pass. So
the old man rode the swift current
through the shadows, his eyes strain
ing for the glow of a campfire on the
foliage of the shore.
Before dawn the roar of white-wa-
ter drifted to his ears, and he landed.
For he would need the light to inspect
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1933-02-03

on the Waiting Canoe.
He had padded but a few strokes
when he saw canoe carried from the
forest and slid into the water. Leap
ing into the boat, the two packers
started straight across the head of
the rapids. They were trying to cut
him off! 1t was Paradis!
Furiously Esau drove his paddle,
angling across the current for the op-
posite shore, as his keen brain grap-
pied with the situation which con-
fronted him. He could land and take
to the bush-ambush the two men in
the canoe if they dared follow him up.
But there were others behind them on
the portage. That meant losing canoe
and outfit-defeat. Without these he
could not reach Jingwak.
Then, at the head of the carry,
third man appeared. There was a
puff of smoke, faint explosion of
rifle above the drumming of the rapids,
and bullet whined past Esau's face.
AS the two canoes swiftly ap-
preached each other, the old Ojibwa
made his decision. Life meant little
to him, now. There was one chance
in ten of his coming through; but he
would make the great gamble for that
one chancellor Jim and the memory
of Jim's dead father. The trail to
Jingwak led through the half-mile of
white fury ahead.
He stopped padding, reached for his
rifle, and fired at the bowman in the
boat cutting across his course.
Hit, the paddler slumped back into
the canoe. Close to the suck of the
first drop, the sherman seized his pole
and fought to check the drifting
canoe, as a second shot passed over
Esau's head.
Then, at the head of the portage,
the old man saw another canoe leav-
ing the beach, as again an Indian
fired at him from the shore.
"Ah-hahl" he cried, his furrowed
face glowing with the exaltation of
his mad purpose. $50 you catch old
Esau? Wal, come on Catch heem !"
Esau sighted his rife and fired at
the sherman battling with his pole to
free the canoe from the fierce suction
on the lip of the flume.
Splintered by the bullet, the bending
pole snapped in the Ojibwa's hands.
He lunged head first into the racing
current, and, followed by his yawing
canoe. was swept into the rapids.
Shifting his load forward to make
the canoe bow-heavy, Esau rose with
his setting pole. AS his boat slid
toward the dip of the long chute. the
old man waved his hand at the pur-
suing canoe and the men on shore as
his cry of defiance, Come and get
mel" was drowned in the drum-beat
of the rapids.
No rifle shots followed the doomed
figure standing with setting pole in
the stern of the birch-bark, as it
leaped forward. In awe the men of
Paradis watched the mad canoeman
deliberately steer his craft into the
NAV of death.
Down into the maelstrom of broken
water plunged the canoe, guided by
the spruce pole of the gallant old
Ojibwa in the stern. Following the
black water channels past boulders
'mounded with foam, and knife-edged
rocks thrusting through the spume.

State President of Eagles
Asserts Cuts to Mean
More Relief Cost.

Taxing officials who favor re-

sions were criticised Monday night
at mass meeting of indianapolis
Eagles aerie held in the lodge home,
43 West Vermont street.
Charles F. Stewart of Kokomo,
state Eagles president, who was the
principal speaker, declared that
those who would cut pension levies
should be asked:
In what poorhouse would you
like for your father and mother to
live?"
He asserted that for every pension
tax reduction voted there would be
a corresponding rise in cost for poor
relief.

FATHER VICTOR
IN COURT, But
LOSER TO SONS
Two Boys Cold to Parent
Who Fought Long for
Visiting Right.

Mikhitar Mooridian is a father
without family
He learned Monday afternoon that
a long series of domestic disputes,
climaxed by his wife's successful
annulment of their marriage on
grounds of bigamy, had lost him his
two sons.
Mooridian won a writ Of habeaS
corpus in circuit court last week
permitting him to see the boys, after
permission had been refused by jU-
venile court authorities.
Children Indifferent
When the meeting took place, the
sons, Vahram. 7, and Charles, 5,
now living with their mother and
foster father Anime Nahegran, at
1886 Northwestern avenue, showed
little interest.
Preferred ice cream, fruit and
candy was refused. In the pres
ence of their father, the boys
fldgeted and met his attempts at
conversation with mOnoSyllableS.
"You are not my father; I al
ready have a father" said Vahram.
Even Friendship Spurned
II just want to be friends with
YOU" said MoOridian.
Il don't want you for daddy,
or a friend, either" the boy
answered.
Mooridian pleaded with court at
taches to intercede for him with
his children. Finally, the boys
agreed to shake hands, after much
persuasion.
Showing their relief at termina-
ton of the interview, the boys
raced to their mother, who awaited
them in another room. Mooridian
said he would return to California,
