"The thaw will open' up the lake in
i few days. Then he will go down in
the first slush." And Jean looked about
him cautiously again and whispered
lOwvif you see' . anything'' about the
lead missions that you do not under
stand think of Jean de Gravols."
He rose 'to his feet and bent over
Jan'S white face.
"I am going the Athabasca way to
day." he finished. "Perhaps, Jan Thor.
eau, you will hear after a time that it
would be best for Jean de Gravois
never to return again to this Post Lac
Bain. If so you will find him be
tween Fond du Lac and the Beaver
river.' " He passed out.
When Cummins returned he found
Jan's cheeks flushed and the boy in-a
fever. ' -
T3evil take that Gravois!" he growl
ed. "He has been a brother to me," said
Jan simply- "I love him."
On the second day after the French
man's'' departure Jan rose free of the
fever which had threatened him, for a
rime, and in the afternoon he har
nessed Cummins' dogs. The last of the
trappers had started from the post that
morning, their sledges and dogs sink
ing heavily in the deepening slush, and
Jan set off over the smooth toboggan
trail made by the company's agent in
his return to Fort Churchill.
' This trail followed close along the
fought the missionary, Joining that of
Jean dl'Gttfvdls' miles beyond: Jan
climbed the ridge. From where he had
made his attack he followed the al
most obliterated trail ' of - the French
man and his malemutes until he came
to the lake, and then he knew that
Jean de Gravois had spoken the truth,
for he found the missionary with his
face half buried in the slush, stark
dead. ' - .

meaning of Jean's words. The bullet
hole under the .dead man's arms-was
. too Jarge to escape eyes like Jan's. Into
the little hidden world, which ho treas
ured in his heart there came another
face, to remain always with him the
face of the courageous little forest
dandy who waa hurrying with his
bride back into the country of the
Athabasca.
From that night Jan's eyes were no
longer filled with the nervous, glitter
ing: flashes which at times had given
hjra an "appearance almost of madness.
In place of their searching suspicions,
there was a warmer and more com
panionable ; gloiyC jan&T Qnmmins , felt
the effect of the change. ,
A Cree trapper had found Jan's vio
lin in the snow and had brought It to
Utballa. Before Cummins finished his
supper, the boy. began to play, and he
continued to piay nnuvuie iigncs at
the post went out and both the man
and the child were deep in sleep.
Then Jan stopped. There was the fire
-of a keen wakefulness in his eyes as
he carefully unfastened the strings of
his instrument and held. lt close to the
oil lamp,' so that he could peer down
through the narrow aperture in the
He looked again at Cummins. The
man was sleeping with his face to the
wall. With the hooked wire which he
used for cleaning his revolver Jan
fished gently at the very end of the
box, and after three or four efforts
the wire caught in something soft,
:which he pulled toward him. Through
the bulge in the MF7hole he dragged
forth a small, tightly rolled cylinder
of faded red cloth. '
For a few moments he sat watching
the deep breathing of Cummins, un
rolling the cloth as he watched, until
he had spread out upon the table, be
fore him a number of closely written
Dazes of naper. He weighted them at J
-one end with his violin and held them
.'down at the other with his hands.
The writing was In French. Several
of the pages were In a heavy mascu
line hand, the words running one upon
another so closely that in places they
seemed to be connected, and from
- them Jan took his fingers, so that they
. rolled up like a spring. Over the oth
ers he bent his head, and there came
from him a low, sobbing breath.
Qa these -pages the writing was that
rf a woman? and from the paper there
still rose a" faint, sweet scent of helio
trope. For half an hour Jan gazed
upon them, reading the words slowly
until he came to the last page.
A new and strange longing crept
Into his heart. He stretched out his
arms, with the papers and his violin
clutched in his hands, as if a wonder
ful spirit was calling to him.
For the first time In his' lonely life
!t came, to him this call of the great
world beyond the wilderness and sud
denly' he crushed the woman's letter
to his lips, and his voice burst from
him in whispering,, thrilling eagerness:
"I will come to you some day w'en
te leetle Melisse come too."
He rolled the written pages togeth
er wrapped them in the faded red
cloth and concealed them again in the
box of his violin before he re-entered
the cabin.
; The pext-morning Cummins stood
In the door and said:
'Howwarnrthe sun Is! The snow
ind Ice are" going, Jan. It's spring.
We'll' house the sledges today and
begin feeding the dogs on fish."
Each day thereafter the sun rose
sarller, the day was longer and the air
ras warmer, and with the warmth
Jhere.now came, the sweet scents of
the budding earth and the myriad,
-wroads -of the; deep, unseen life of the
forest awakening from Its' long slum
ber Jitf ItsTBed of snow;
' The post fell back into its old ways.
K6w and then a visitor came in from
ut of the forest, but he remained for
iraly a day or two, taking back into
the solitude with him a few of the
necessaries of life. Williams was busy
preparing bis books for the coming of
the company's chief agent from Lon
tea and .Cummins, who was helping
H6n6r 'M
of the
Coparight, 1911, bg the Bobbs-
Merrill Co.
the factor, had a good deal of extra
time on his hands.
Before the last of the snow was
gone he and Jan began dragging in
logs for an addition which they plan
ned for the little cabin. Basking out
In the sun, with a huge bearskin for a
floor, Melisse looked upon the new
home building with wonderful demon
strations of interest Cummins' face
glowed with pleasure as she kicked
and scrambled on the bearskin and
gave ; shrill voiced approval of their
efforts.
Jan was the happiest youth in the
world. It was. certain that the little
Melisse, nearly six months old, under
stood what they were doing.
As the weather grew warmer and
spring changed into , summer Jan took
Melisse upon short excursions with :
him into the forests, and he picked
for her great armfuls of flowers
and arctic ferns. . The grave wasiev
er without fresh offerings, and the
cabin, with its new addition complete,
was always filled with the beautiful
things that spring up out of the earth.
Jan and Melisse were happy, and in
the joys of these two there was pleas
ure for the others of the post, as there
had been happiness in the presence of
the woman. . Only upon Cunimins' had
there settled a deep grief. , The
changes of spring and summer, bring
ing with them all that this desolate
world held of warmth and beauty, fill
ed him with the excruciating pain of
his great grief, as if the woman had
died but yesterday.
At last, his gaunt frame thinned by
sleepless nights and days of mental
torture, he said that the company's
business was calling him to " Churchill,
and early in August he left for the
bay. He left Melisse in care of Jan,
and the child seemed to recognize the
guardianship.
When Cummins came back from
Fort Churchill . in . the autumn he
brought with him a pack full of things
for 'Melisse, including new books and
papers) for which he had spent a share
of his season's earnings. As he was
freeing these treasures from ' their
wrapping of soft caribou skin, with
Jan and Melisse both looking on, he
stopped suddenly and glanced from his
knees up at the boy.
"They're wondering over at Church
ill what became of the missionary who
left with the mail, Jan. They say he
was last seen at the Etawney."
"And not here?" replied Jan quickly.
"Not that, they know of," said Cum
mins, still keeping his eyes ,on the
boy. "The man who drove him never
got back to Churchill. They're won
dering where the driver went too. A
company 'officer has gone up to the
Etawney, and it is possible he may
come over to Lac Ban. I don't believe
he'll find the missionary."
"Neither do I," said Jan quite coolly.
"He is probably dead, and the wolves
and foxes have eaten him before this
or mebby ze feesh!"
Cummins resumed his task of un
packing, and among the books which
he brought forth there were two which
he gave to Jan.
"The supply ship from London came
in while I was at Churchill, and those
came with it," he explained. "They're
schoolbooks. There's going to be a
school at Churchill next winter, and
the winter after that it will be at York
factory, down on the Hayes." He set
tled back on his heels and looked at
Jan. "It's the first school that has ever
come nearer than 400 miles of us.
That's at Prince Albert." .
For many succeeding days Jan took
long walks alone in the forest trails
and silently thrashed out the two prob
lems which Cummins had brought back
from Churchill for him. Should he
warn Jean de Gravois that a company
officer was Investigating the disappear
ance of the missionary?
At first his impulse was to go at once
into Jean's haunts beyond Fond du Lac
and give him the news, but even if the
officer did come to Post Lac Bain how
would he know that the missionary
was at the bottom of the lake and that
Jean de Gravois was accountable for
it? So in the end Jan decided that it
would be folly to stir up the little hunt
er's fears, and he thought no more of
the company's investigator who had
gohe up to. the Etawney.
CHAPTER VI.
The Red Terror.
CUMMINS' word, of the school
at Churchill had put a new
and thrilling thought into
Jan's bead, and always with
that thought he coupled visions of the
growing Melisse. This year the school
would be at Churchill and the next at
Bio Snows
ff "TEs
Potest TrfT
York factory, and arter: that it might
be gone forever, so that when Melisse
grew up there would be none nearer
than what Jan looked upon as the oth
er end of the world. Why could not he
go to' school, for, Melisse and store up
treasures which in time he might turn
over to her?
The scheme was a colossal one, by all
odds the largest that had ever entered
into his dreams of what life held for
him. It was not until the first cold
chills of approaching winter crept down
from the north and east that he told
Cummins of his Intention. : .
Once his mind was settled Jan lost
no time in putting his plans into ac
tion. Mukee knew the trail to Church
ill and agreed to leave with him on the
third day, which gave Williams' wife
time to make him a new coat of cari
bou skin.
On the second evening he played for
the last time in the little cabin, and
after Melisse had fallen asleep he tool:
her tip gently In his arms and held her
there for a long time, while Cummins
looked on in silence. When he replaced
her in the little bed against the wall
Cummins put one of his long arms
about the boy's shoulders and led him
to the door, where they stood looking
out upon the grim desolation of the
forest that rose black and silent against
the starlit background of the sky.
"Boy, won't you tell me who you are
and why you came that nlght"
"I will tell you now that I come from
t e Great Bear," whispered Jan. "I
am only Jan Thoreau, an ze great God
made, me come that night because"
his heart ' throbbed with sudden in
spiration as he looked up into his com
panion's face "because ze leetle Me
lisse was here," he finished. .
For a time Cummins made no move
or, sound; then he drew the boy back
Into the cabin, and from the little ging
ham covered box in the corner he took
a buckskin bag. , ,
' "You are going to Churchill for
llsse and for her," he said in a voice
pitched low that it might not awaken
the baby. ."Take :this,,,.: ?' ; .';
Jan drew a step back.
"No, I fin work with ze compan-ee
at Churchill. That is ze gold for Me
lisse when she grow up. Jan Thoreau
is no what you call heem?" v
His teeth gleamed in a smile, but it
lasted only for ah instant Cummin's
face darkened, and he caught' him
firmly, almost roughly, by the arm. .
"Then Jan Thoreau .will never come
back to- Melisse," he exclaimed with
finalfty. "You are going to Churchill
to be at school and hot to work with
your hands. They are sending you.
Do you understand, boy? They!"
There was a fierce tremor in his voice.
"Which will it be? Will you take the
bag or will you never again come back
to Lac Bain?"
Dumbly Jan reached out and took
the buckskin pouch. A dull flush
burned in his cheeks, ! Cummins look
ed in wonder upon the strange look
that came into his eyes.
"I pay back this gold to you and Me
lisse a hundred times!" he cried tense
ly. "I swear. it, an I swear that Jan
Thoreau mak' no lie 1"
Unconsciously, with the buckskin bag
clutched in one hand, he had stretched
out his other arm to the, violin hang
ing against the wall. Cummins turned
to look. When he faced him again the
boy's arm had fallen to his side and
his cheeks were white. The next day
Jan left
It was a long winter for Cummins
and Melisse. It was a longer one for
Jan. He had taken with him a letter
from the factor at Lac Bain to the fac
tor at Churchill, and. he found quarters
with the chief clerk's assistant at the
post a young, red faced - man named
MacDonald, who had come over on the
ship from England. He was a cheer
ful, good natured young , fellow, and
when he learned that his new associate
had tramped all the way from the Bar
ren Lands to attend the new public
school, he at once invested himself
with the responsibilities of a private
tutor.
The school opened in November,-and
Jan found himself one of twenty or
so gathered there, from 40,000 square
mues or wuaerness. - two wnite
youths and a half breed had come

RICH SOCIALIST WILL
SPEAK HERE TONIGHT
James Graham Phelps Stokes, the
millionaire Socialist agitator, and at
present Socialist candidate lor Mayor
of Stamford, will speak this evening
at 8 o'clock at Main and Wall streets.
Stokes has been for some time waging
a very aggressive campaign for the
Mayoralty laurels, and judging from
the interest he has stirred up he has.
made a great headway among all the
voters of his city. There are seven
candidates for Mayor.
Stokes can hardly . be said to equal
the oratorical powers of Debs or even
Keir Hardie, but it is Generally admit
ted bv responsible critics that as far
as the knowledge of Socialism is con
cerned he has few superiors in the
American Socialist movement.
Those who will listen to Stokes will
no doubt have a chance to hear a
member of one of the richest families
of Connecticut to denounce the prin
ciple of rent, profit and interest, and
with it the source of the income of
his own family.
