"Slios going to break! shouted
Thorpe, starting 011 it run toward lli

The 111011 followed, strung Illicit wllh

paused lout; enough to glance Up

of logs. Hy Hint tliey all knew tl'ut

that something under in.ooo.OOO feet of
logs were racing down the river like no
many buttering rains.
At tin boom tlie treat jinn was al
ready ii-trcmhle with eagerness In

to linlil tlie tlmlMTH In their plaee.
"lt'n death, certain dentil, to ko out

Tim Shearer nleiied forward coolly,

"Hack! Hack! Don't follow me, on

The swift water Ixilled fhuu under
the liooni". Ham;! Miumli! banc! eranh-
I ed the Iok a mile up stream, hut plain
ly audible above the waters and the
wind. Thorpe knelt, dropped tlie cold
s,1,t through on either side of tlie
weakened link and prepared to clow It
wllh his hammer. He Intended furthei
I to strengthen the connection with the
other chain.
"I.eiiiine hold her for you. You can't
clixe her alone," said an unetnectel
voice next hN elbow,
I'horpe looked up In surprise and an-'
gcr. Over lit 111 leaneil ig juiiko. ine
men had been unable to prevent hl
following. Animated by the blind de
votion of the animal for Its master and
further stung to action by that mas
ter's doubt of his' fidelity, the giant hud
followed to assist as be might.
"you fool." cried Thorpe, exasperat
d. then held the hammer to him.
'Strike while I keep the chain under
neath!" he commanded.
Hlg Junko leaned forward to obey
kicking strongly bis calks Into the
barked surface of the boom log. Tlie1
spikes, worn blunt by the river work
already accomplished, failed to grip
Hlg Junko slipped, caught himself bj
an effort, overbalanced In the other di
rection, and fell Into the stream. Tlie
current at once swept him away, bu'
fortunately in such a direction that bi
was enabled to catch the slanting end
if u "dead heud" log whose lower end
was Jammed lu the crib. The dead
head was slippery, the current strong ,
Hlg Junko hud no crevice by which tr !
issnre Ills hold. In another moment lif
.voiild be torn away.
"Let go and swim!" shouted Thoriie.
"I can't swim." replied Juiiko lu so
iow a voice as to be scarcely audible.
l'or a moment Thorpe stared at him 1
"Tell Carrie." said Hlg Junko.
Then there beneath the swirling gray
Iky, under the frowning Jam, III tlie
nldst of Hood waters. Thorpe had lile
eeond great moment of decision. H
lid not paue to weigh reasons 01
hnnces, to discuss with himself expe
lleliey or the moralities of failure. Kin
ictlcmN were foreordained, mechanical.
All at once the great forces which the
winter hud been bringing to powei
crystallized Into something bigger than
himself or his Ideas. The triill lay Iw
fore hliu; there was no choice.
Now cleat l.v. with no shadow of
ilollbt, he to
br:,r.':
took the other view: 'lher
nothing better than love. Men
their deeds, were little
1 things. Success was a little thing, ttw
opinion of men a little thing. Instantly
lie felt the truth of It.
And here was love lu danger. That
it held Its moment's habitation in clay
of the coarser mold had nothing 1o do
with the great elemental truth of It.
l'or the llrs 1 time lu bis life Thorpe
felt the full crushing power of an ab
straction. Without thought, instinc
tively, he threw before the necessity of
the moment all that was lesser. It was
the triumph of what was real lu the
man over that which environment,
alienation, dillicultles, hud raised up
within ) 1 111.
At Kig Jtiuko'rt words Thorpe raised
Ills hammer and with one mighty blow
severed tlie chains which bound the
ends of tlie booms across the opening.
Tlie tie end of one of the poles Im
mediately swung down wllh the cur
rent lu the direction of Hlg Junko.
Thorpe, like 11 cat. run to the end of
die boom, seized the giant by the col
lar and dragged him through the wa
ter to safely.
"Hun!" he shouted. "Itiiu fia; yom
life!"
The two started desperately back,
skirting tlie edge of the logs which now
ilio very seconds ulouo seemed to bold
back. They weie drenched and blind
ed with spray, deafened with the orasb
or timbers settling to the leap. The
men on shore could nu longer see tliein
for Hid smother. The great crush of
logs had actually begun Its first majes
tic sliding motion when at last they
emerged to safety.
At tlrst a few of the loose timbers
found the opening, slipping quietly
through with the current; then wore.
I'lnally the front of tlie Jam dove for

writer, tasclunted.
The grandeur of the sacrifice
struck them dumb. They did not tin
derstand the motives beneath It all, but 1
the fact was patent
HliC Juiiko broke
down and sobbed.
After a time the stream of logs
through the gap slackened. In a mo
ment more, save for the Inevitably
stranded few. the booms were empty
A deep sigh went up from the utten 1
tlve multitude.
"Site's gone?' said one man. with the '
emphasis of a novel discovery, and
groaned.
Then the awe broke from about their
inluds. and they sioke many opinions
and speculations. Thorpe had dlsap- j
peared. They respected his emotion 1
and did not follow him. '
"It was Just plain foolishness, but J
It was great." said 8'iearcr. "That no
account Jackass of a Big Juiiko ain't
worth as much per thousand feet 11s
good white pine. 1
Thsn they noticed a group of men 1
gathering aliout the office steps, mid
011 It some one talklug. Collins, the
bookkeeper, was making a speech.
Collins was a little butchet faced
man. with straight, lank hair, near
sighted eyes, a tluild, order loving dis
position and a great suitability for bis
profession. He was accurate, unemo
tional and valuable. All bis actions
were as dry as the sawdust lu the
burner. No one had ever seen him ex
cited. But he was human, and now
hl knowledge of the company's affairs
showed bim the dramatic contrast. He
kuew. He knew that the property of
the Arm had been mortgaged to the
last dollar lu order to assist 'expansion.
m that not another cent could be bor
rowed to tide over present dllllculty.
He knew that the notes for $r.0.000
rovertng the toau to vtauace 1 arpenier
?aoie due lu three months. He knew
from the loug table of statistics Which
'ie was eternally preparing and com
parlw that tlie season's cut should
ve netted a prottt of $200,0s. enough
to pay the Interest ou the mottgages,
to take up the notes and to furnish a
working capital for the ensuing year.
Tbeae things he knew In the strange
Toucrrle arithmetical manner of the
routine bookkeeper. Other men saw
a desperate phase of firm rivalry. He
saw n struggle to the uttermost. Oth
er men cheered a rescue. He thrilled
over the magnificent gesture of the
gambler scattering his stake In largesse
to Heath
It was the simple turning of the baud
from full breathed prosperity to life
less allure.
His view was the Inverse of his mas
ter's. To Thorpe It bad suddenly be- j
come a very little thing In contrast to
the great, swret, elemental truth that '
the dream girl bad enunciated. To
Collins the affair Vas tulles vaster than '
the widest scope of Ills own narrow j
life. 1
The firm could not take up Its notes 1
when they came due; It could not pay
the Interest on the mortgages, which .
would now be foreclosed; It could not I
even pay In full the men who bad 1
worked for It that would come under ,
a court's adjudication.
He hud therefore watched Thorpe's
desperate sally to mend the weakened
chain lu all the suspense of a man '
whose entire universe Is lu the keeping
of the chance moment. It must be re
membered that at bottom, below the
outer consciousness. Thorpe's filial de
cision had already grown to maturity.
On the other band, 110 other thought
than that of accomplishment had even
entered the little bookkeeper's head,
The rescue and all that It had meant
bad bit bim like a stroke of apoplexy,
and bis thin emotions bad curdled to
hysteria. Full of the Idea he appeared
before the men.
With rapid, almost Incoherent speech
he poured it out to them. Professional
cnullon and secrecy were forgotten,
Wallace Carpenter attempted to push
through the rlug for the pnrpe of
slopping him. A gigantic river man
kindly but firmly held hi in buck.
"I guess It's Just as well we hears
this," satd the latter.
It all came out-tbe loan to Carpen
ter, with a bint at the motive the
raucblnatlous of the rival firm ou the
board of trade; tbe notes, the mort
gages, tlie necessity of a big season's
cut; the reasons tbe rival flrui bad for
wishing to prevent that cut fiom ar
riving at the market; tbe desperate and
varied lueaus they had employed. Tbe
men listened, silent. Hamilton, bis
eyes glowlug like coals, drank In every
word. Here was the muster motive be
bad sought; here was tbe story greut
to his baud.
"That's what tre ought to get!" cried

Out from the shadows of the woods
1 stole Injun Charley. The whole hear
IliK and aspect of the liuill had elm lit.'-
I ed. Hit eye jrlcaiueil with a distant,
farseelni; tire of Its own, which took
110 account of anything but some re
mote vision. He stole nloiiK almost
furtively, but veJtli a proud, upright
carriage of his neck, n backward tilt
of his flue head, a distension of his
nostrils, that lent to his appearance u
panther-like pride and stciilthluess. No
one saw him. Suddenly he broke
through the group and mounted the
steps beside Collins.
"The enemy of my brother Is gone,"
said he simply In his native tongue,
and wllh a sudden gesture held out be
fore them- a scalp.
Tlie medieval barbarity of the thing
appalled them for a moment. The days
of scalping were long since past, hud

of forgotten histories, and yet he
again lief oie them was tlie thing In nil

The human animal had tasted blood.

They remeinliered the words of Collins,
the
little bookkeeper. They hated.
They sluxik their Hits across the skies.
They turned and with one accord
struck back for the railroad right of
way which led to Shlugleville. the
town controlled by Morrison V Daly.
The railroads lay for a mile straight
through n thick tamarack swamp, their
over a nearly treeless cranberry plain.
The tamarack was a screen between
the two towns. When half way

the entire village had assembled. Kven
old Vauderhoof, the tire catcher of the 1
yard, hobbled along breathlessly on bis
rheumatic legs, lu a moment the
musks were fitted; in a moment more
the little bund had emerged from the
shelter of the swamp and so came Into
full view of Its objective point.
Hbliiglevllle consisted of a big mill, '
the yards, now nearly empty of linn-1
ber, the large frame boarding house,
the ofltee, the stable, 11 store, two sa
loons and a doxen dwellings. The par
ty at once fixed Its eyes on this collec
tion of bulldlugs and trudged on dowu I
the right of way with utihusteiilug I
grlmiiess.
Their approach was not unobserved. ,
Daly suw them, and Maker, his fore- '
Iiihii. saw them. The two at once went
forth to organize opposition. When
the attacking party reached the mill
yard It found the boss and the fore
man standing alone on the snwdiist, re
volvers drawn.
Duly traced 11 Hue with his toe.
"The tlrst man that crosses that line
gets It." said he.
They knew be meant what be said.
An lutant's pause ensued, while the
big man and the little faced a mob.
Daly's river men were still ou drive, lie
knew 'the mill men too well to depend
ou them. Truth to tell, the possibility
of such a raid 11s this hud not occurred
to bim for tin simple reason that be
did not anticipate the discovery of III'
complicity with the forces of nature.
' Skillfully carried out, the plan was a
good one. No one need know of tlie
weakened link, and It was the most
inutiirai thing in the world that Sudlei
iSc Smith's drive should go out with th
Increase of water.
The men grouped swiftly and slleutl;
on the other side of the sawdust Hue
The pause did not mean that Daly's de
fense was good.
"Do you know what's going to hap
pen to yollV" said a voice from the
group. The speaker wus Hudwuy, bill
the contractor kept himself well lu tin
background. "We're going to bull
