HE little room to which Mrs. Kelly conducted Ann was hard- ly larger than a steamer state- room and was very: primitive as regards its furnishings. “It’s a small place and a rough place for such as you, but it's the best we have,” said Mrs. Kelly. Ann responded to the humility which shaded the hearty voice of her hostess, and, though she shivered in the chill air, answered cheerily: “I'm sure this is very nice. The bed is tempting.” ‘ ‘How changed Raymond was! How deeply brown! He looked as vigorous as she saw him first at the ranch, and yet differentâ€"years older; and with his strength, his resolution, something new was mingledâ€"something graver and sweeter. He was handsomer in the miner’s heavy boots than in the cow- boy's spurs and kerchief. Hesitatingly, with many misgivings. Mrs. Kelly withdrew. and Ann hurried- ly disrobed and leaped into the bed, which was white as snow and almost as cold. It was like a plunge into the breakers at Magnolia; it fairly took her breath away, and there was no escape from this icy contact, for the air was as bitter as the sheets. But the joy of the meeting with Louis and the unexpected glow of confidence and pleasure with which she met Ray- mond's anxious, piercing eyes came back to warm her heart. UV‘ ' wrâ€"-â€" “_'_ Her mind took up again the singular- !ty of her position, lying there in a frosty bed in a miner’s cabin. She laughed. “Am I to meet my death by freezing?” But at last a glow of com- fort began to steal over her, a delicious languor, and thenâ€"she was awakened by a grinding sound and by the shout- ing of cheerful children, and a few minutes later the gentle voice of Mrs. Kelly sounded at the door. “Certainly.” said Ann. and the pale and pretty little housewife entered with :1 pitcher of warm water. “Are you awake?” Ann threw back the coverlet to find the room full of sunshine. “May I come in?” asked Mrs. Kelly. “Good morning. How did you sleep the night?" ' “I don't know. I haven't the slight- est idea Where the night went to.” After her hostess left her Ann lay staring at the rough walls and the still more primitive ceiling in wonder. “It must be real.” she thought. “for I couldn’t possibly dream it.” “'ith a realization of her own sloth. she sprang out upon the cold floor and began to dress with a vigor and celerity she did not know she possessed. During breakfast she studied Mrs. Kelly and began to understand at last that the little mother had not merely washed and dressed the boys and cooked the breakfast, but had served as waitress and maid of all work. and now. calm and sweet and self con- tained, was presiding over the table. If any dish needed replenishing. she sprang up to get it. and this put the robust daughter of wwlth to shame. “Don’t you feel tired some mornings and lie abed ‘2" she asked. Mrs. Kelly smiled. “Indeed I do, but I can’t afford to lie abed. When Matt makes his next strike. sure I’m going to hire a girl and sleep till I’m weary of it, if it takes a week.” _ “Y'Ou must let me do something while I am here,” said Ann. “Let me pro- vide a maid for you.” “Oh, no; I was only jokin’. Sure, you couldn’t hire a girl on the hill to do housework. Besides, the best of them are not fit company for you, and in a small but like this you're cheek by jowl with your help.” Ann had not thought of them as com- pany, but she gravely replied: “I might bring a. maid from my cousin’s house. At any rate, you must let me help this morning. I can sweep and dustâ€"1n- deed I can.” _ l‘vSIighty little dusting the shack needs in this air,” said Mrs. Kelly. “Good luck to me, it’s tiny." 7‘1 must help or '1 will not my,” 1n- sisted Ann. “At least I can amuse the children.” Louis shot through the door like a stone from s sling. His eyes were dancing. “Good morning, everybody i” he shouted. “Haven’t you breakfasted yet? Why, we've been done ten min- utes. Isn’t this bullyâ€"this life up here? How do you feel this morning?” Ann laughed to see him so elste, so vigorous. “What a child you us!" she exclaimed in wonder. Geed morning, Nora.

BY HAMLIN GARLAND HAMLIN GARLAND Louis stared at his sister and w‘as about to make some revealing remark when Raymond intervened. “We are very glad to have you in camp. but you must not suffer inconveniences." “I’ve been thinking perhaps it would do me good to sufler hardship.” she an- swered. with a reflective glance. He considered a moment before chang- ing the subject. “Everything seems quiet up street thls morning, so our trouble may blow over. I am going up, by and by and will report on what is brewing in the saloons. They are the “It’s quite simple,” replied Raymond. “The county is about equally divided now between the miners ot the peak and the citizens of the plain. The peak's interests are not those of the Springs. and it has resented for a year the domination of the Springs. The owners of the mines are either resi- dents of the plain or of the east and violently opposed to the politics of the camp. Burnett’s man, Mackay, at- tempted to reorganize the working hours of the camp and failed. You know of the mishandling he received." “What are they going to do now '2" “I don't know. As the case stands. the camp is hot against any invasion by the sheriff and ‘a mob of hirelings,’ as they call his deputies, and his at- tempt to overawe the camp only creat- ed more furious resistance. I will be able to tell better what the outcome will be when I learn what the union has decided to do. Thus far it has been a game of hint on the part of a dozen men who are not strictly miners at all, and the question of wages has had lit- _---~ do attention. I am going up now. to see what is going on.” ‘ As Raymond entered the street the peace and beauty of the Kelly home and the vision of the two women bent peacefully above their sewing stood away in radiant contrast above the reeking saloons, the reckless crowds and the rows of drink inflamed men lounging along each bar. storm centers. I’m sorry Don started to come h, and I hope he will so quiet- ly back and forget the whole incident." “Tell me about the camp. What is the trouble all about? I can’t under- stand," she said. The lover’s senses, sharpened by Ann’s presence in the camp, detected a more sinister change in the temper of the men. Up to this time all that had taken place had been jocular, at least on the surface, but the sheriff’s threatened invasion with a hundred hired thugs stirred the red fires at wrath in men like Hanley, Brock and Collingwood, who had hitherto been but onlookers, and they were now the inciting centers or men talking loudly and with undisguised fury. Hanley, perceiving Raymond at the door, approached to say: “One of Mun- ro's vedettes intercepted that kid of yours last night and got word that Don Barnett was on his way up here. You better warn him at.” _ Raymond resented his tone, but cold- ly replied: “The boy was mistaken. Barnett turned back at Grand \ iew.” Some one plucked him by the arm, and, following his guide, Raymond en- tered the room used as the othce of the union, where he found Carter, the president, and Lamed, the organizer, in the midst of a hot argument with Munro, Smith and a group of others of their sort. Larned was shaking with excitement and rage, and Carter, the little president, looked white and scared. Munro, with a grin, said: “Come in, Rob. This is a council of war." Raymond entered calmly, his head a little bent. his keen eyes studying ev- ery face. “What’s it all about?” Lamed explained, his hands quiver- ing, the veins on his forehead bulging, his eyes mums and revered. “If they do it,” he said, “I leaveâ€"I get out. I will not countenance lawlessness of this sort. I’m not a tool. I know what the eflect will be. If they turn back this posse the state militia will be called out. I came to organize a union to meet the coming question of labor and capital. I did not come here to form mobs. I refuse to sanction it. I will not have a thing to do with it. If you make this raid I leave the camp.” Raymond spoke. “I’m not involved You can stand 0! a aherifl once or twice, and you might even stand on a regiment at amide. but you can't stand at! the United But. my, and that’s mtyen’nmup enlistintheend.

It was like the tap of the finger of fate. Munro opened the door. and Do- lan, the reporter, entered. “Hello, lads,” he called easily. “ Vhat’s doin’?" 0‘ ‘"-â€"vâ€" _. They all éhgfited, "Hello, Jim!” and Larned, starting forward, exclaimed: “Well, rather. The sheriff, with a hundred men and a Special train, is at Trinchera. He means business this time, lads.” The roomful of men now gathered into groups to discuss the certainty of war. Dolan, gay with excitement, drew round him Carter, Larned and Coiling- wood. Smith and Denver Dan were the center or another squad, while Ray- mond took Munro aside and earnestly pleaded: “See here, old man, you must keep out of this. It isn’t your funeral, but it will be it you don’t vamoose the ranch.” i Latned’s voice, rising high and cut- ting above the others, interposed. “Then I leav e. You are crazy. You can’t hold : this hill with a million Gatling guns. The national committee will not stand ! for it. Goodby!” Clapping his hat on = his head, he walked out of the room, ‘ his white face set in a furious frown. “I can’t go back on the boys now, Rob. They need my military training, i and, besides, I am in it. I won’t sit . back and see the district done up by . these thugs who never earned an hon- . est dollar in their lives. And youri friend Barnettâ€"what good is he on earth? Just a bloodsucker on the bare back of labor. I’m with the boys. and if my experience can do ’em any goo-J I‘m ready.” “I know how you feel. Jack. but this is desperate business. A tight with the.) sheriff will set the whole couniry against the miners.” Munro smiled contemptuously. “He won’t fight. A round of shots in the air will send him hotfooting it back to the Springs. It’s all a farce.” “Be careful. The farce may turn into tragedy at a moment’s notice. These miners are idle and full of liq- uor. Men like Kelly who have women to protect”â€" Munro caught at this. “By the way, who was the ‘femme?’ My word, she’s a peach.” Raymond’s tone was coldly 'indit‘fen out “Kiss Rupert is from New York city, Barnett's cousin. She ls here to look after her brother Louis. I was not thinking of her so much as or Mrs. Kelly and other women who can’t get away.” Brock roared out: “Call a meeting, Carter, and we’ll carry it our way! To blazes with the national committee!" Carter, however, was scared blue by Larned’s despairing retreat and re- fused. “We’ve got to go slow. We can’t win without help. I won’t make the call." San Juan Smith. with flaming face, shouted furiously: “Then we’ll do it without your sanction. The executive board will act.” Raymond, on the doorstep, made a last appeal to Munro. “Jack, you can’t afford to go into this thing with Smith. Keep out or it. It’s bad business all around. It's one thing to strike and another thing to resist authority. See this street!” In some way word had already passed along the ridge that the sheriff was ac- tually on the road and that he would reach the end of the railway in mid- afternoon, and a great throng was packed round a man on horseback who was good naturedly trying to force his way toward headquarters. “That’s one of my scouts,” said Mun- ro, “with news of the invaders.” And he pushed ofl into the crowd, while Raymond, with serious face and slow step, went down the path toward his mine. news ?" 3'¢@oo¢o¢4o¢o¢¢¢¢o¢¢¢@¢¢ ¢¢¢§ Q? “Fight? or course they’ll fight. They'll go down and drive the sheriff‘s men like sheep. But what then? The crazy jacks!” women? Are they in danger?” Kelly was reflective. “Not now. The sheriff will hardly reach the hill this time. He'll go back. The authorities and the newspapers will chew the rag for a couple of weeks, and thenâ€"we’ll be up against it!" “All the same, Matt, I wear my guns from this on, and one of us must stand guard at night. The camp is filling with dangerous men.” At Kelly’s invitation, Raymond and Louis took noonday dinner with him. It was a most delicious meal to Ray- mond and a pleasantly exciting one to Ann, for she confessed to having cook- ed the eggs and potatoes. All reference to the trouble on the hill was jocular. “They're going to fight,” he said to “It isn’t your funeral, but it will be.” The roaring savagery of the Golden Horn saloon seemed of another world, having no possible connection with the peace and sunshine and homely joy of the Kelly cabin. The old mountaineer seemed to take it lightly. “They must fight their own battles. I had nothing to do with bringing on the strike, and I’ll have nothing to do with staving it off.” “Is it a regular strike?” asked Ann. “It is. and it is not. The big mines are all shut down.

But what they do doesn’t concern us. We are going right along in our small way. Our men are all outside the union.” Mrs. Kelly spoke in praise of Ann to Raymond (she had divined his love). “You should ’a' seen herâ€"working ev. ery blwsed minute this forenoon, Rob- en"â€" “You must not compliment me too much,” interrupted Ann. “Maids are sometimes spoiled by too much kind. ness. Are there shops near? We need a few things to make us comfortableâ€" and my valises, when can I get them?” Raymond replied: “I will take you down to Bozle tomorrow, if you care to go. The shops are better there and the streets less turbulent.” “I’d like to go very much,” said Ann, on a sudden impulse. “I’d like to go this afternoon. Can we drive? How far is it?” “We will ride, 11 you are not afraid of our bronchos and steep trails. It will be more comfortable than 3 mg on.

They are,” he added. with a glance ot unabashed admiration. “In- troduce me, Rob.” Raymond reluctantly complied. “Miss Rupert, this is Mr. Jack Munro.” Munro stepped forward and held out a very handsome hand, and Ann could not refuse to take it. He was smaller than Raymond and seemed hardly out of his teens, as he stood there smifing brightly, his bated head lightly poised on shapely shoutders, and some magic in his smile made Raymond and Kali)" seem for the moment cold and reserv- ed. His assurance, his frankness amused her. LECEM BER ‘20, 1906 “I came to tell the lady that no harm betel] Colonel Barnett, her escort.
