In a Wild Country.
Lw ATI' en the fiHov. i:ic: morning
O'Neil's expedition was landed
at the deserted tisuiiu; station of
Omar, thirty miles down the
sound from Cortez. From this point
its route lay down the bay to open
water and thence eastward alon? the
coast in front of the Salmon river delta
some forty miles to Kyak. This latter
stretch would have been well nljru im
possible for open boats but for the
fact that the numerous mud bars and
islands thrown out by the river afford
ed a sheltered course. These inside
channels, though shallow, were of suf
ficient depth to allow small craft to
navigate and had long been used a3 a
route to the coal fields.
Applet on. smiling and cheerful, was
the Crst member of the party to ap
pear at the dock that morning, and j
when the landing had been effected at J
Omar he showed his knowledge of the j
country by suggesting a short cut
waiv-h would save the ion; row uown
to the mouth of the sound and around
into the delta. Immediately back of
the old cannery, which occupied a gap
in the mountain rim. lay a narrow
lake, and this, he declared, held an out
let which led into the Salmon river
flats. By hauling the boats over into
this body of water a task made easy
by the presence of a tiny tramway
vith one dilapidated push car which
had been a part of the cannery equip
ment it would be possible to save
much time and labor.
"I've heard there was a way
through." O'Xeil confessed, "but no
body seemed to know just where it
was."
"I know," tb young man assured
him. "We can gain a day at least,
and 1 jade every day is valuable."
"So valuable that we can't afford to
lose one by making a mistake," said
his employer meaningly.
"Leave it to ce. I never forget a
country on?e I've been through it."
P.ut Dan Appleton was net mistaken.
A two Lvurs' row across the mirror-like
surface of Omar lake brought the par
ty out through a hidden pap in the
mountains and afforded them a view
across the level delta. To their left the
rrnce they had just penetrated retreat
ed toward the canyon where the Sal
mon river burst its way out from the
interior, and beyond that point it con
tinued in a coastward swing to Kyak.
their destination. Between lay a fiat,
tra' kless tundra, cut by sloughs and
glacial streams, with here and there
long tongues of timber reaching down
from the hizh ground and dwindling
away toward the seaward marshes. It
was a desolate region, the breeding
place of sea fowl, the hunting ground
for the great brown bear.
O'Xeil had never before been so near
the canyon as this, and the wild stories
he had heard of it recurred to him with
interest- lie surveyed the place cu
riously as the boats glided along, but
could see nothing more than a jumble
of small hills and buttes and beyond
them the dead gray backs of the twin
glaciers coming down from the slopes
to east and west. Beyond the foothills
and the glaciers themselves the main
range was gashed by a deep vallej
through which he judged the river
must come, and beyond that he knew
, w as a country of agricultural promise,
extending clear to the fabulous copper
belt, whither the railroads from Cortei
were headed. Still farther inland lay
the Tanana. and then the Yukon, with
their riches untouched.
What a pity, what a mockery, it wai
that this obvious entrance to the coun-1
try had been blocked by nature! Jusi
at his back was Omar, with its deep
rud sheltered harbor: the lake ne had
crossed gave a passage through tbc
guardian range, and this tundra
O'Xeil estimated that he could lay a
mile of track a day over it led right
up to the glaciers. Once through the
const range building would be easy, for
the upper Salmon was navigable, and
its banks presented no difficulties tc
track laying.
He turned abruptly to Appleton, who
wry? pulling an oar.
"What do you know about that can
yon?"' he asked.
"Xot much. Nobody knows much,
for those fellows who went through in
the gold rush have all left the country.
Gordon's right of way comes in above.
B:id so does the trust's. From there on
I know every foot of the groimI."
Camp was pitched late that night far
out on the flats. During the prepara
tion of supper Murray sat staring fix
rdly bffore him. deaf to all sounds and
Insensible to the activities of his com
panions, lie had lost his customary
breeziness and his good nature. He
was curt, saturnine, unsmiling. Ap
pleton undertoo.k "to arouse him from
this abstraction, but Slater drew the
young man aside hurriedly with a
warning:
Harper & Brothers.
. "Don't do that, son, or you'll wear
splints for the rest of the trip."
"What's the matter with him. any
how?" Dan inquired. "He was boil
ing over with enthusiasm all day, but
now why, he's asleep sitting up! He
hasn't moved for twenty minutes."
Tom shook his head, dislodging a
swarm of mosquitoes.
"Walk on your toes, my boy. Walk
on your toes. I smell something cook
ing, and it ain't supper."
When food was served O'Xeil made
a pretense of eating, but rose suddenly
in the midst of it with the words: 4
. "I'll stretch my legs a bit." His
voice was strangely listless. In his
eyes was the same abstraction which
had troubled Appleton during the aft
ernoon. He left the camp and disap
peared up the bank of the stream.
"Xice place to take a walk!" the en
gineer observed. "He'll bog down in
half a mile or get lost among the
sloughs."
Darkness had settled when O'Xeil re
appeared. He came plunging out of
the brush, drenched, muddy, stained
by contact with the thickets, but his
former mood had disappeared, and in
its place was a harsh, explosive en
ergy. "Tom." he cried, "you and Appleton
and I will leave at daylight. The men
will wait here until we get back." His
voice was incisive. Its tone forbade
question.
The youthful engineer stared at him
in dismay, for only his anxiety had
triumphed over his fatigue, and day
light was but four hours away. O'Xeil
noted the expression and said more
gently :
"You're tired, Appleton, I know, but
in working for me you'll be called
upon for extraordinary effort now and
then. I may not demand more than
an extra hour from you; then again 1
may demand a week straight without
sleep. I'll never ask it unless it's nec
essary and unless I'm ready to do my
share."
"Yes, sir."
"The sacrifice is big, but the pay Is
bigger. Loyalty is all I require."
"I'm ready now, sir."
"We can't see to travel before dawn
Help Tom load the lightest boat with
rations for live days. If we run short
we'll siwash it." He kicked off his
rubber boots, upended them to drain
the water out, then flung himself upon
his bed of boughs and was asleep al
most before the two had recovered
from their surprise.
"Five days or longer!" Slater said
gloomily as he and Dan began their
preparations. "And me with indiges
tion!" "What does It mean?" queried Ap
pleton. "It means I'll probably succumb."
"Xo, no! What's the meaning of this
change of plan? I can't understand
it."
"You don't need to." Happy Tom
informed him curtly. There was a look
of solicitude in his face as he added.
"I wish I'd made him take off his wet
clothes before he went to sleep."
"Let's wake him up."
But Slater shook his head. "I'd soon
er wake a rattlesnake," said he.
O'Xeil roused the members of his ex
pedition while the sky was reddening
faintly, for he had a mind which work
ed like an alarm clock. All except
Appleton had -worked for him lefore.
and the men accepted his orders to
await his return with no appearance of
surprise.
With the first clear light he and his
two companions set out, rowing up the
estuary of the Salmon until the cur
rent became too swift to stem in that
manner. Then landing, they rigged a
"bridle" for skiff, fitted their shoul
ders to loop In a ninety foot tow rope
and began to "track" their craft up
against the stream. It was heart
breaking work. Frequently they were
waist deep in the cold water. Long
"sweepers" with tips awash in the
flood interfered with their efforts. The
many branches of the stream forced
them to make repeated crossings, for
the delta was no more than an endless
series of islands through which the
current swirled. When dusk overtook
them they were wet, weary and weak
from hunger. With the dawn they
were up and at it again, but their task
liecame constantly more difficult be
cause of the floating glacier ice, which
inc reased with every mile. They were
obliged to exercise the extremest cau
tion. Hour after hour they strained
against the current until the ropes bit
Into their aching flesh, bringing raw
places out on neck and palm. Hour
after hour the ice went churning past,
and through it all came the intermit!
tent echo of the caving glaciers ahead
rf them.
pun Appleton realised very soon
fc-hitber the journey . was leading, aril
at thought of actually facing those ter
rors which loomed so large lit conjee-
ture his pulses began to leap. He had
a suspicion of O'Neil's Intent, but
dased not voice it. Though the scheme
seemed mad enough, its very audacity
fascinated blm. It would be worth
Kvhile to take part in such an under
taking, even if it ended in failure.
And somehow, against his judgment,
he felt that his leader would find a
way.
For the most part O'Xeil was as si
lent as a man of stone, and only on
those rare occasions when he craved
relief from his thoughts did he encour
age Dan to talk. Then he sometimes
listened, but more frequently he did
not. Slater bad long since become a
dumb draft animal, senseless to dis
comfort except In the hour of relaxa
tion, when he monotonously cata
logued his ills.
"Are you a married man?" O'Xeil in
quired once of Dan.
"Not yet, sir."
"Family?"
"Sure! A great big. fine one. con
sisting of a sister. But she's more than
a family she's a religion." Receiving
encouragement from his employer's
look of interest, he continued: "We
were wiped out by the San Francisco
earthquake and stood in the bread line
for awhile. We managed to save $4,000
from the wreck, which we divided
equally. Then we started out to make
our fortunes. It was her idea."
"You came to Cortez?"
"Yes. Aloney was so easy for me
that I lost all respect for iL The town
rang with my mirth for awhile. 1 was
an awful fool."
"Education!"
"Now, it's my ambition to get settled
and have her with me. I haven't had
a good laugh, a hearty meal or a Chris
tian impulse since I left her.""
"What did she do with her half of
the fortune?"
"Invested it wisely and went to work.
I bought little round celluloid disks
with mine; she bought land of some
sort with hers. She's a newspaier wo
man, and the best in the world or at
lease the best in Seattle. She wrote
that big suowslide story for the Review
last fall. She tells 'em how to raise
eight babies on $7 a week or how to
make a full set of library furniture out
of three Leer kegs, a packing case and
an epileptic icebox. She runs the 'Do
mestic Economy column, andshe's the
sweetest, the cleverest, the lffost stun
ning" Appleton's enthusiastic tribute ceas
ed suddenly, for he saw that O'Xeil
was once more deaf and that his eyes
were fixed dreamily upon the canyon
far ahead.
On the evening of the sixth day a
splintered, battered poling boat with
its seams open swung in to the bank
where O'Neil's men were encamied.
and its three occupants staggered out.
They were gaunt and stiff and hqavy
eyed. Even Tom Slater's full cheeks
hung loose and flabby. But the leader
was alert and buoyant; his face was
calm, his ejes were smiling.
"You'll take the men on to the coal
fields and finish the work," he told his
boss iuckcr later that night. "Apple
ton and I will start back to Cortez in
the morning. When you have finished
go to Juneau and see to the recording."
"Ain't that my luck?" murmured the
dyspeptic. "Me for Kyak, where there
ain't a store, and my gum all wet."
"Chew it, paper and all," advised Ap
pleton cheerfully.
"Oh, the good has all gone out of It
now," Slater explained.
"Meet me in Seattle on ihe loth of
next month," his employer directed.
The clerk, of the leading hotel in Se
attle whirled his register about as a
man deposited a weather beaten war
bag on the marble floor and leaned
over the counter to inquire:
"Is Murray O'Neil here?"
This question had been asked re
peatedly within the last two hours, but
heretofore by people totally different
in appearance from the one who spoke
now. The man behind the desk meas
ured the stranger with a suspicious
eye before answering. He saw a rag
ged, loose hung, fat person of melan
choly countenance, who was booted to
the knee and chewing gum.
"Mr. O-'Xeil is not here."
The fat man stared at his informant
accusingly. "Ain't this the loth?" he
asked.
"It is."
"Then he's here, all right!"
"Mr. O'Neil is not in," the clerk re
peated, gazing fixedly oyer Mr. Slater's
left shoulder.
"Well, I guess his room will do for
me. I ain't particular."
TIis room is occupied at present. If
you care to wait you will find"
Precisely what it was that he was to
find Tom never learned, for at that
moment the breath was driven out of
his lungs by a tremendous whack, and
he turned to beholdLDr. Stanley Gray
towering over him, an expansive smile
upon his face.
"He's around somewhere."
Slater turned a resentful, smoldering
gaze upon the hotel clerk and looked
about him for a chair with a detach
able leg, but the object of his regard
disappeared abruptly behind the key
rack.
"This rat brained party said he
hadn't come.
"He arrived this morning, but we've
barely seen him."
"I left Appleton in Juneau. He'll be
down on the next boat."
"Appleton? Who's he?" Dr. Gray in
quired. -
"Oh, he's a new member of the or
der initiated last month. He's learn
ing to be a sleep hater, like the rest of
us. He's recording the right of way."
"What's In the air? None of us
knows. "We didn't even know Mur
ray's whereabouts. Thought he was in
Kyak until he sounded the tocsin from
New York. The other boys have quit
their jobs, and I've soldxay practice."
"It's a railroad." -
Dr. Gray grinned. "Well, that's the
tone I use when I break the news that
it's a girl instead of a boy."
"It's a railroad," Slater repeated, "up
the Salmon river."
