HEARD ON THE BOUESS.
White The wheat market was firm
though tired and the fact that final
sales were c lowar than previous
close would argue that bull news had
been discounted at the price.
Barrell While we advise buying
wheat on all setbacks, we would not
ignore good profits when offered. Re
actions will follow all quick upturns.
Ware & Leland A good many shorts
have been forced to cover but are
willing to put out lines on any good
sign of weakness. We are inclined to
look for a good scalping market in
wheat,
Pringle On any weak spots we ad
vise buying July wheat, believing in
higher prices for it.
Miller The undertone of the market
continues strong. There is an absence
of liquidation. Commission houses po
sition is a comparatively light one and
we see no reason to change our opin
ion on the bull position.
Topics Union, Reading, Steels and
Smelter are the best stocks to sell on
bulges.

"Now, silence and listen!" said Gray.
They soon detected a curiously sub
dued clamor from the Inner recesses ot
the cleft. At first almost Indistlngruish
able. It gradually assumed the pecullai
attribute of immense volumes of dis
tant sound and filled the ear to the ex
clusion of all else. It was like nothing
any of them had heard before. Now it
recalled the roar of a mighty waterfall.
and again its strange melody brought
memories of a rive? in flood. But the
dominant note was the grinding noise
of Innumerable millstones. It cowed
themall. Even the dog was afraid.
"Guess we tied up Just in time," ex
claimed Gray, feeling the need of
speech. A little sob answered him.
Elsie was beginning to admit the 6heet
hopelessness of her undertaking. .
"Now, cheer up, Miss Maxwell," said
he. "All the water that Is going in
must come out by the same road. At
the worst we can skate back the way
we came and take our chance. But it
will soon be broad daylight, and I'll
answer for it that if Captain Courte
nay is yet alive he is not between us
and the mouth of the inlet or he would
have contrived some sort of racket to
let us know his whereabouts. Now, I
propose that our friend In the bows be
asked to shin up the cliff and. prospect
a bit. He ought to know how to crawl
through this undergrowth. Fifty feet
higher he will be able to see some dis
tance." Suarez was very reluctant to leave
the boat, but the American adopted a
short cut In the argument, offering him
the alternative of climbing ashore or
of being thrown overboard.
So the Argentine adopted the less
hazardous method and climbed to the
bank. A splash and a scramble and a
slight exclamation from Elsie told that
the dog had followed. Soon the swish
of leaves and the crackling of rotten
wood ceased. Suarez might be out of
earshot or merely hiding for a time, in
tending to return with news of an im
passable precipice. Theie was a crumb
of comfort in the absence of the ter
rier. Joey would either go on or come
back to them at once.
Gray felt that the girl was too heart
broken to talk. He listened to the
rhythmical chorus of that witches'
caldron in the heart of the defile and
watched the gray light slowly etching
a path through the trees until it touch
ed the fast running water wtth m
shimmer of silver.
Neither of them knew how long they
remained there. At last a straining
and creaking of the boat warned them
that the water level was rising and the
ropes needed readjusting. It was now
possible to see that Elsie had made

fast to a fallen tree. Its branches were
locked among the gnarled roots of the
lowermost growth above high , water
mark. Already there was a distinct
lessening in the pace of the current,
and Gray fancied that the distant rum
ble was softer. It would not be many
minutes before the neighboring rocks
were covered. High tide he knew wa3
at 3:15 a. m. He forbore to look at
his watch lest the girl should note his
action. That would imply the utter
abandonment of hope.
It might be that his mind was too
taken up with the weird influences of
the hour or that Elsie's senses were
strung to a superhuman pitch. Be that
as it may, it was she who sprang to
her feet, all a-quiver with agitation.
"Do you hear?" she whispered, and
her hand clutched Gray's shoulder with
an energy which set his heart beating
high. He did not answer. He had
heard no unusual sound, but he was
not without faith in her.
"There!" she panted again. "Some
one is hailing. Some one cried 'Elsie.
I am sure of it."
"Guess you'd better toot 'Arthur on
the off chance," 6aid Gray.
Almost the last thing she remember
ed was the sound of her own wild
scream. There came back to her a
stronger shout and the bark of a dog.
She had a blurred consciousness of a
whole troop of men scrambling down
the choked ravine, of glad questions
and joyous answers, of a delirious dog
leaping on board and yelping staccato
assurances that everything was all
right in a most wonderful world. Then
she found herself in Courtenay's arms
and heard him say in a rapture of de
light: "I owe my life to you, dear heart.
That is the wonder of it. No need to
tell me you ran away from the ship.
I know. One kiss, Elsie, then full
speed ahead for the Kansas. By the
Lord, to think of it you here, at the
very gate of the inferno! Well, one
more kiss! Yes, it is I, none other, and
fit as a fiddle. Never got a scratch
There, now; I really must see the crew.
We must be ready for the turn of the
tide."
CHAPTER XIX.
"iHB events of the next hour
were shadowy as the dawn to
k Elsie. She knew that her lov
er placed men In each of the
canoes, that the lifeboat itself was
crowded and that it began the seaward
journey after the others had started.
They sped out of the twilight into
the morning glory of the open bay, and
never a savage hoot disturbed the ech
oes. Some of the Alaculofs had drag
ged a couple of canoes from beneath
the trees and raced off toward the vil
lage, others had followed a coast path
known only to them, while if there
were watchers by the side of that
mysterious river which flowed both
ways with the tide they kept a silent
vigil, awed by the force arrayed
against them.

ary under the vigorous sweep of six
ash blades Elsie's wondering glance
rested on the brown plumpness of a
girl who was gazing at Suarez with
wistful, glistening eyes, much as Joey
was regarding his master.
Courtenay caught the happy little
sigh, half laugh, half sob, with which
Elsie announced her discovery of the
idyl in the canoe.
"We owe a lot to that young per
son," he said. "None of "us could make
out a word she uttered when first we
saw her. She loses what small amount
of Spanish she can speak when she
becomes excited, and it was sheer good
fortune that some of the crew were
with her when she swung herself
down the side of the cliff to warn ua
of our danger; otherwise she might
have been shot. I suppose Suarez told
you what to expect''"
"You might as well be talking Alacu
lof yourself for all I can follow what
you are saying," murmured Elsie hap
pily. Whereupon Courtenay took thought
and explained that the channel which
flowed through that amazing cut iu
the cliff led to the crater of an extinct
volcano, into which the sea poured
twenty feet of water each tide. An
almost everlasting maelstrom raged
within, as the water entered by a side
long channel and sent a whirlpool spin
ning with the hands of the clock until
the enormous cistern was full and
against them until it was empty. The
sailors had taken refuge on a wide,
sulphur coated ledge high above tha
vortex, and the presence of several
skeletons showed that many an unfor
tunate had sought a last shelter there
against pursuit. Every Alaculof knew
of this retreat, but few dared approach
it, as the roar of the water far below
appalled them. There was only one
path. When the hunters closed that
their prey was safe. The alternative
to capture was death by starvation.
The Chileans and he himself during
the past fourteen hours had subsisted
on a bag of dried berries stolen by the
girl when she first led the sailors
thither.
"Didn't you see how eager we all
were to search the lockers?" he asked.
"But the rascals had cleared every
scrap when the boat fell into their
hands again with the falling tide."
She nestled close to him.
"I saw nothing," she whispered. "My
mind held but one thought that you
were alive, though indeed I was
mourning you as dead. But now I am
restored to my senses. I think I can
grasp what happened. Did Joey find
you?"
"Yes. You can guess my bewilder
ment when he sprang on top of me.
I was lying down. I heard our sen
tries shouting, but paid no heed. As
a matter of fact, Elsie, I, too, had
abandoned hope. I could see no chance
of escape. Great heaven to think
of your coming to my rescue! What
made you do it?"
