t
CtlAltLlE'S wnnlgon. In rase you
do not happen- to know what
such a ttijng may be. was a
scow about twenty feet long
by ten wide. If nns very solidly con.
structrd of hewn timbers, square at
both ends, n-as Inconceivably clumsy
aud welshed an ubbetlernble number
of pounds. When loaded, It carried all
the bfd rolls, teuts, provisions, cooking
UtnsUs. tools and ,a chest of tobacco,
cothea and other minor supplies. It
was managed by Charlie and his two
cookers by means of pike poles and a
long sweep at either end.
The packing brgan before the men
bad dulahed breakfast Bbortly after
daylight Ibe waiilgnn, pushed strongly
from shore by the hike poles, was drift
ing toward the chute. The heavy mow
threatened to turn side on. nnd the
sweeps at either end churned the wa
ter frnntl(,'Ully In an endeavor to
straighten her out
As Nenmark looked at tb smooth
rim of the water sucking Into the
chute ho began to wonder why be had
come. The noble ship was pointed
right nt last aud caught the faster wa
ter head on.
"All right!" Charlie shouted.
Zeke and his male took In the oars.
The wanlgan shot forward below tha
gate.
Wbnck. bump, bang, and the scow
stopped so suddenly that Its four men
pluuged forwn'rd In a miscellaneous
heap. The water, backed up behind
the stern, began to overflow nto the
boat Ncwinark snw that the. scow
bad mn her baw on an obstruction
and had been brought to a standstill
squnre Jjcnrath the sluice gate. The
water was beginning to Bow the entire
length of the boat. Various lighter ar
ticles shot past him and disappeared
over the side..
Newmark hnd an Inspiration. The
more Important matter, nucb as the
men's rlnthew ling", the rolls of bed
ding nnd Hie henrler supplies of pro
vision, hnd nut yet rut loos from
their mmtrlnc. I seized one of .the
long onr. thrust the blade under the
edge of a thwart astern. ad the aha ft
of the oar across tha cargo and by
resting hW wrfxht on the handle at
tempted to lirlng It down to bind tb
contents nf the .wanlgan to tbejr
places. The cookees came to his as
Distance. Tseher they aqecceded In
bending the long hickory sweep .far
enough to r.itcli Its handle end under
suotber fqrwnrd thwart. The second
oar was quickly locked Alongside tha
first, and not n moment too soon. A
rush of water forced ,thep all to cling
for tbelr Uvea.
Two or three rlverroen appeared at
tho edge of the ctiu(e. A moment later
old 'roan Reed ran up. carrying a rope.
This, after some difficulty, was made
fast to the bov ot the wanlgan. A
short ropo from the top of the dam
allowed the boat to be lifted free of
the obstruction; cable astern pr-1
vented tho current from throwing her
broadside to tho rush of waters; an
other cabfe from tho bpw led .her ,1a,
tho way sne anouia go. xen rainuiw
later abe waa pulled ashore out or tno
eddy below, very much waterlogged
nnd manned by a drenched and dla
gruntled crew.
'"pout two ton of water In them
bed' rolls and .turkeys." grumbled
Charlie.
In a, couple of hours' run the waul
gnn bad overtaken and left far behind
the rear of tt)e drive.
"Well," said Charlie nt Inst "we
hotter raako

down In the jam
pretty toon." '
"Well.t' said

returned Newmark dryly.
"Well, stay with us as long as you're

benrtlly.
"Thank you." Newmark acknowl
edged (bis. "J Relieve I will."
"That old mossback Reed was rlgbt
on deck with bis rope." remarked John
ny Slmmsj "That was pretty decent
of him.",
"Old skunk!" growled North. "ITo

"Ob, he's a poor old dCTll." replied
Orde easily. "That's the way the

Charlie grumbled fiercely Inartlcu
late, but Johnny Cballan Interposed
with a chuckle of enjoyment,
'ne got 'bunked.' "
"Tell ns!" cried Orde delightedly,
"it was down nt McNeill's place,'
explained Johnny Cballan. "They was
a ceUDle of sports there who throwed
out three cards back up on the table

iictd up the Jatk of'htnrf.
,Tbey showed you where the jack was

''Three card 'monte." said A'eir mark.
".How much!" nskedfSlmmji.
"About $.ip." rrplled ttbdy.
Orde lurned on the disgruntled cook,
"And ypn had lift In your turkey
Camping with I his outfit of hard citi

It."
Johnny Cballan was explaining to
bis companions exactly how tbe came
"waa played.
At this point Newmark broke into
the discussion.
"Have you a pack of cardsr' be ask'
ed In .bis dry, Incisive manner.
'An old deck was produced.
Newmark cleared a' cracker box of
drying socks and drew It to, him.
"These three are tbe cards," be said,
speaking rapidly. ;Tber la tbe Jack

the Jack, one of you," be challenged.
"Any of you," be urged. 'tTpn. North."
The foreman leaned forward and
rather hesitatingly laid a blunt fore
finger on ono ot the card. It, wis tbe
ten of spades. "Let me try," Inter
posed Tim Nolan. "I bet I cad pick
her." ' ' ..
"Ob, yea, yon belt" shrugged New
mark. "And that's where tha card
sharps get you fellows very tiro."
He deftly flipped tbe cardai
Nolan, who bad watched .keenly, In
dicated one without hesitation. Again
It proved to be tho ten of spades.
Everybody 'was ambitious, and the
young man, nltb inexhaustible pa

ally at each wrong guess! At length
be called n bait. "By tbls.ilme,I'd

made bis swift passes nnd distributed
tbe cards. Then, quite calinly!t'wlttiout
'ddlurblpj: the three on the iff acker

An exclamation broke jtrOm . the
group. Nolan leaned forward, ana turn
