The girl on her part felt a sudden gtwinge of remorse as she left him i there, a fine, strong. manly suitor, who guttered no complaint. though she ’wounded him. The twitching of his lips troubled her, but she did not re- , lent. In her heart she said: “I can’t I help it. It isn’t in me. He shouldn’t i ask it.” 1;; their stateroom and said boyishly: “Gee: We’re 9? at k“ NOW lEt her that!” He was no longer a boy. and he was bred to self control; therefore, though his voice trembled a little, he spoke quietly: “Goodby, Ann. Write every day, won‘t you?" As the 'time for the train to start drew near Peabody strove to win some softer word from Ann. but she was not or those who manifest emotion. Her training and her temperament were alike opposed to easy expression. When he tried to take her hand a sec- ond time with eyes that entreated she rec-oiled. "No, no! You have no right to expect In a voice which chilled him she re- plied: “Every day is pretty often, but you will hear from me. Go and see mother, please. She will not say so, but she will be glad to have you come.” v' _â€"-v enough for me.” Looking down at him at that mo. ment, Ann’s bosom swelled with an emotion almost maternal. “How thin he is," she thought. as her eyes took In his slight body. “I'll go. I’ll do any. thing for him. if only he can grow strong and well.” She loved that slender lad and aa- snmedtorhimagreaterweightotmre andhopeandfearthanforanyother human being. He was so like his ta- “I hepe so.” she replied rather dreari- ly. "but he seems unwholesomely ex- cited at the present moment.” ' “He‘ll get over that.” “I fear he will be disappointed. Fa- ther’s trip was made nearly twenty- tive years ago. when it was a really wonderful land.” “He is young. He will reimagine it." The boy stood like some beautiful an- imal poised for a spring as the ferry shouldered its clumsy way into the Jersey dock. He was of iess bulk than his strong. composed. modish sister. and his face was as dark. as mobile and as eager as hers was fair and imo passive. Peabody experienced once again a twinge of keen regret that Ann had not some of her brother’s radiant enthusiasm. Surrounded by porters and wearing an air or command, Louis led the way to the sleeping car, impatient of his sister’s deliberation. On one hip he carried a pair of large field glasses and over the other a costly camera. while half concealed cases of pencils and pads of drawing paper bulging from his pockets announced his artistic in- tention. Peabody remarked in a low voice: “Louis is transformed already. It will do‘him all kinds of good to go west.” The girl spoke musingly. “It’s singu- lar, but I have a premonition of some dark fateâ€"some vague sorrow. I nev- er felt so beforeâ€"not even on my trip to Egypt. If I don’t come back I want you to note that I was forewarned. Let’s go forward.” Wayne Peabody laughed good natur- edly dawn at the boy. “You wouldn’t care if civilization did stop at the west bank of the Hudson river, would you '3” “I should say not. I'm tired of it allâ€"the noise and the pavements and the heat and the wetness. I want to get out where the wolves and the cranes and the cowboys are; I want to hit the trail and find where father’s camps were." “Oh, sis, you make me tired!" cried the boy. “Just as it going west were bidding goodby to everything!” He beat his thin chest. “I‘m just begin- ning to live now. I'm glad to get away from the stuffy old town. I want to see something besides Fifth avenue and Central park.” The girl did not speak for a moment, and when she did her voice was dis- tinctly sorrowful. “I feel as though I were saying goodby to everything worth while.” “Including me?” asked her escort. She did not smile, but her accent was kindly as she answered. “Yes, W'ayne, including you.” fie resemblance of the monstrous hive of humankind to a height of land was so marked, so singular, that the girl remarked upon it. and the boy, a pale lad of seventeen, cried out in shrill Staccato: “Yes; but think of the real mountains we’re going to ckimb!” CHAPTER I. EARLY the entire boat load 0: passengers was jammed along the forward gates, ready to spring out upon the Jersey wharf, restive to reach the 'waiting trains, but quite apart from all these whose faces were set westward three peopleâ€"a girl. a man nearing forty and a slim ladâ€"lingered on the after deck as though loath to take their leave or the imperial city. COPYRIGHT. 1905. old HAMLIN GARLAND that a girl of her age and tastes could desire, she had turned away to face the crude conditions of a western state in a warm glow of sisterly afiection. She took up the little red book, in which she had taken only a languid in. terest before, and, turning the leaves at random, fell upon bits of description that stirred her unaccountably. Now that the was about to enter this land of her We delight. the words took Louis was not weary. He eyed every man who came in, avid to discover some western trait, some outward sign of inward difference between himself and his companions. but could not. They were all quite commonplace busi- ness men, well dressed, close clipped and urbane of manner. Some of them were evidently salesmen going over to Philadelphia or out to Chicago, and they all ate long and with every evi- dence of enjoyment. Some of the wo- men were young and prettyâ€"students returning to the west for their summer vacations. Once more in the privacy of her state- room and looking out at the landscape reeling past, Ann sank back in her seat wholly dismayed. “What in the world can I do out there?" she asked herself most poignantly. “Of course they don’t play golf or tennis, and I can’t ride, and, besides, whom could I play with? Jeannette is not a bit athletic." And again the small round of her interests â€"she had no gayetiesâ€"was borne in upon her. “I shall die of inactivity.” Louis excused himself quite formally and went back into the smoking com- partment to sit with the men, while Ann, left alone, gave herself up to a close, half ironic study of the absurdity of her position. With a dozen most de- sirable invitations to distinguished Lon- don homes, with everything before her besides, I want to illustrate father’s journal.” This journal, the record of a trip into the west made by Philip Ru- pert before his marriage, had come to be the most powerful influence in the lad’s life. It was a worn little red book in which the father had written the daily happenings and impressions of his trip. and its diaovery by Louis in a box of old papers had quite trans- formed his life. It had made him an American, filling him with a longing for the “IIesperian mountains,” as the father called the romantic land he had seen but once. but whose splendor lived with him throughout the remain- der of his short life. As they sat at the table in the dining car Ann again listened indulgently to her brother‘s plans, and permitted him to order the dinner and assume all the manners of a grown man, honestly try- ing to conceal her own weariness of spirit, sincerely regretful of her bitter words on the ferry. his art. He had recently determined on being an illustrator of wild animal books. “I’m going to study them at first hand,” he repeated often, “the was; Melborn Foster has done. And, therâ€"the soul restless as flame, the slender body racked, worn with end- less enthusiasms, the burning, mos- meric eyes and the delicate mouth. All these she had known and valued in her father, and when the doctor seri- ously advised the Rocky mountains she readily gave up her own plans, and here and now she sat, rushing toward the west to a town repulsive to her, a place of emptiness and weariness, a so- cial desert, where no one lived but her cousins, the Barnetts, to whose hos- pitable door they were bound as voy- agers on a wide sea to a snug harbor. Without that home as a point of ar- rival Ann Rupert would have been in such uncertainty of mind as besets a sailor on a chartless sea. She was making this abhorrent trip in order that her brother might thrive in his physical well being as well as in HAMLIN GARLAND “Hello, Don ! ” ! " shouted Louis. DU RHAM CHRONICLE .mman, in fact. Don't ydu think her Werence a pose?” “I never did understand that girl," said Donnelly Barnett to his wife one night after a drive into the great Bear canyon. “She has everything to make her happy, and yet she goes about tor- pid as an oyster. What’s the matter with her?” Jeannette sighed. “That’s her moth- er’s blood. She’s like her mother in a hundred ways. Louis is exactly like his father. I remember when he came back from his first and only trip to the west. I was only a child, but I recall his enthusiasm. He was a lovable fel- low, but I never could stand Alicia. She was positively stony. I have hopes of Am. Her hand is strong and warm Ann was puzzled and a bit bored by their insistence on winning her admi- ration ot the mountains and, being nat- urally perverse, withheld the expres- sions of pleasure she might otherwise have uttered, for she was profoundly moved by What she saw. _ car and saw only remotely those who slept all night in the cramped corners of the ordinary coaches. Her cousins were not native: they were, indeed, only translated Philadelphians who had gone west in search of healthâ€"at least Mrs. Barnett was there for that rea- son. Her husband made the change for love of his wife. A certain percentage of the towns- people and the members of the special circle in which the Barnetts moved were health seekers, and Ann was deeply relieved to find that all the com- forts of an eastern home were to be enjoyed in the big graystone houses on Rampart avenue. Indeed, the Bar- netts lived quite as they would have done in Seabright or Lenox. They had a dozen horses, a suitable assortment of vehicles, saddles and bridles and were enthusiasts concerning polo and golf. Their neighbors and friends were unfailingly ecstatic in praise of the cli- mate and the views and seemed illog- ically anxious to placate the prejudices of this haughty, pale faced, scarlet lipped young girl, who looked with calm eyes upon the great peak gloom- ing to the westward. They formed, in fact. a colony of alien health seekers, busied with pleasures, set distinctly apart from the toilers and the traders of the place. CHAPTER II. NN’S entrance into the Barnett home cut her off from all con- tact with life distinctly west- ern. She found herself still amid the velvet and silver of the parlor They were met at the car door by a big, smiling man in modish summer dress, while behind him stood a pale, sweet faced woman in blue. “Hello, Don!" shouted Louis. “Hello, laddie! How do you do, Ann '2" replied Barnett, and as Ann and her cousin embraced the big man caught Louis by the hand. “How’s your muscle, my boy? Got all your traps? Here, Tom!" he called to a colored tootman, “look out for these things." ' The porter, with brush in hand. came dqwn the aisle. “This is Valley Springs, The train was now winding down to- ward Valley Springs, and only the splendid sky line of the range could be distinguished as the lights of the town began to sparkle out or the obscure murk. “I’m glad you were not disappointed, boy," she replied, laying her hand on his shoulder and caressing his cheek, “but you need rest. You’re seeing too much." “It isn’t a bit as I expected it to be," he said, “but it is glorious. That pur- ple green was wonderful. I’m going to try to get that some time. It isn’t as precipitous as the Alps, but it’s superb just the same, and just think how much wilder it was when father came here!” At last, just as the red was paling out of the sky, the train swung to the left on its southerly course. and the whole Rampart range began to stretch and wind away to northward and south- ward, while between the plain and the foothills rolled a tawny sea of sod, deeply marked with ravines and don- ted with pine clad buttes. The range grew dimmer as they gazed. and at last even Louis was content to sink back in his seat and wait. As that day and the next wore on the boy began to burn with a new phase of his fever. He commenced to count the hours till he might be able to discern Mogalyon, the great peak of the Ram- part range, Whose fame is worldwide. Ann experienced her first decided flush of interest as the swinging. reeling rush of the train brought the great peak into view, a dim, blue dome against the western sky. Louis did not return to the Pullman till after the train had left the city, and she was just beginning to wonder there- at when he came in with eyes ablaze. “I’ve struck ’em at last!” be fairly shouted in her ear. “They’re all up in the reclining chairs, chin bearacrs, spitters and all. i’m just crazy to sketch two or three of them. It doesn’t pay to ride in a stateroom if you want to see types ” he added in conclusive discontent. schedule time and had but a few min- utes in which to make their transfer, and so they saw little of the great cen- tral metropolis. To them it was only a gloomy, clangorous shed fitted with long strings of railway coaches all marked with strange namesâ€"names which meant little to her, but which ex- cited Louis almost to tears. “See,” he cried, “there is a car from Oregon and one from Wyoming!” The peOple who tilled the coaches were not markedly diflerent at first glance from those she had been traveling with, but Louis, more keenly discerning, began to dis- tinguish types at once, and when one or two big men came in wearing wide hats and chin beards he trembled with joy. “There are some cattlemenâ€"I'm sure of it,” he whispered hoarsely.

He looked up at her tenderly. “You’re good to me, Hesper,” he said fervently. “Sh! Don’t ever call me by that ab- surd name.” “It isn’t absurd. I like it," he said. Barnett, seated at his telephone, made every arrangement for them. “You’ll be met by old Jones, and when you get there Mrs. Jones will look aft- er you. She’s a very good cook, so don’ t get nervous when you see her. She’s not pretty. Raymond will do his best to entertain you, and when you come back you’d better ask Raymond to put his own horses in the cart and drive you out. He’ll be better company than J ones.” Barnett slyly winked at his wife. He really wanted to see Ann “jarred.” “It’ll do her good to rough it a little." he said privately. Thereupon Louis, trembling with eagerness, began to “rustle his outfit." He bought a pistol, a rifle, a broad rimmed hat, some blan- kets and the most highly ornamental cattleman’s saddle in the Springs. Ann was afraid to let Louis go alone, but Barnett poohpoohed her. “He’ll get on all right. In fact, he’ll rejoice to be free of us for a day or two. I’ll wire the mail carrier to meet him and take him down, and I’ll send a letter to Raymond to look out for him. He’ll be more than sate. He‘ll be happy. and he won’t miss us in the least.” Ann insisted on going down herself. fl want to see him properly settled,” "Oh, don’t do that. It isn’t the alti- tude; it’s the social whirl.

He’ll take to the boy like anything. I’m sure of it.” The plan as worked out by Barnett involved a trip on his automobile for the four of them; but be delayed too long. Mrs. Barnett entered upon one of her “poor spells,” and Donnelly, faithful as a big dog, promptly told Louis to go ahead and not wait for the party. “I must stay and nurse Jean- “Well. now.
