The Fake Is Exposed.
TlllZ two miners were thrust for
ward, and the embarrassed
Thorn, who had acti'd as spokes
man, was boosted to a table.
Under Murray's tin -on ra cement he
stammered out the story of his good
fortune, the tale running strai-rhr
ennigtj to fan excitement into a blaze.
There was no disposition to doubt, for
news of this sort is only too sure of
credence.
When the speaker had finished O'Neil
inquired:
"Are you an experienced quartz min
er? Do you know ore when yon
see if:"
"Sure! I worked in the Jumbo, at
Goldtield. Nev.. up to last year. So
did Taker."
"When did you go into the White
river country?"
"August."
"IIow did you go in?"
"We packed in. When our grub ran
out we killed our horses and cached
the meat for dog feed."'
"Is there any other dog feed there?"
"No, sir."
"Any people?"
"Not a soul. The country is open to
the first comers. It's a tii:e looking
country too. We seen quartz indica
tions everywhere. I reckon this speak-
for itself." Thorn signihVantly held up
his ore samples. "We've made our lo
cations. You fellows is welcome to
the rest. First come, first served."
There was an eager scramble for the
specimens on the part of those nearest
the speaker. After a moment Murray
nsked them:
"Did you fellows ever see an- rock
like that?"
One of hi workmen answered:
"I have."
"Where?"
"In the Jumbo, at ftold field. I 'high
graded" there in the early days."
There was a laugh at this. Thorn
flushed angrily. "Well." he rejoined,
"we've got the same formation over
there in the White river, it's just like
Uoldtield. It'll be the same kind of a
camp, too, when the news gets out."
O'Neil broke in smoothly to say:
"Most of our fellows have no dogs.
It will take them three weeks to cover
the trail. They'll have to spend three
weeks in there, then three weeks more
coming out over two months alto
gether. They can't haul enough grub
to do them." He turned to his employ
ees and said gravely: "You'd better
think it orer. boys. Those who have
ttams can make it. but the rest of you
will get left. Do you think the chance
is worth all that work and suffering?"
The bridge workers shifted uncom
fortably on their feet. Then a voice
exclaimed:
"Don't worry, boss. We'll make it
somehow."
"Thorn says there's nobody over
there." Murray continued. "Hut that
seems strange, for I happen to know
of half a dozen outfits at the head of
the White river. Jack Dalton has had
m gang working there for four years."
Dalton was a famous character in
the north, one of the most intrepid of
the early pioneers, and the mention of
his name brought a hush. A large part
of the audience realized the truth of
O'Neil's last statement, yet resented
having it thrust upon them. Thorn
and linker were scowling. Gray had
just entered the room and was signal
ing to his chief, and O'Neil realized
that he must score a triumph quickly
if he wished to hold the attention of
his men. He resumed gravely:
"If tlys strike was genuine I wouldn't
argue, but it isn't." A confusion of
startled protests rose; the two miners
burst out indignantly. Hut O'NeiF.
raiding his voice for the first time,
managed to make himself heard.
"Those jewelry samples came" from
Nevada," he cried. "I recognized them
myself this afternoon, and here's an
other fellow who can't be fooled.
Thorn told you he used to work in
(Joldfield. You can draw your own
conclusions."
The temier of the crowd changed
instantly. Jeers, groans, hisses arose.
The men were on their feet now and
growing noisier every moment. Baker
and Thorn were glaring balefully at
their accuser. But Gray succeeded i:i
shouldering his way forward and whis
pered to O'Neil, who turned suddenly
and faced the men again.
"Just a minute!" he shouted. "Yoi
heard Thorn say he and Baker went
pros per this in August. Well, we've
just had Cortez on the cable aud learn
that they were working for Gordon un
til two weeks ago." A sudden silence
fell. Murray smiled down at the two
strangers. "What do you say to that?"
Thorn flew into a purple rage. "It's
a mean lie! He's afraid you'll quit
work, fellows." Viciously he flung
himself toward the door, only to feel
tLe grasp of the muscular physiciau
tii cc his arm.

Hrpr A Brothers.
"Listen to this message from the
cashier of the Cortez Home bank!" bel
lowed Gray, his big voice dominating
the uproar. Undisturbed by his pris
oner's struggles, he read loudly:
Joe Thorn and Henry IJaker quit work
15th, lfuvins? for Fairbanks over winter
trail, with live Jos four gray ami white
iiKiIemutes, black slupherd b ailor. Thorn
medium size, thirty-five, rod luiir. Uakt-r
dark, scar on cheek. WI l.SOX,
Cashier.
The doctor's features spread into a
broad grin. "You've all seen the dog
team, and here's the red hair." His
fingers sunk into his prisoner's licry
locks with a grip that threatened to
leave him a scalp fr a trophy. Thorn
cursed and twisted.
The crowd's allegiance had been
quick to shift, but it veered back to
O'Neil with equal suddenness.
"Bunko!" yelled a hoarse voice, after
a brief hush.
"Lynch "em!" cried another, and the
angry clamor burst forth anew.
"Don't be foolish." shouted Murray;
"nobody has been hurt."
"We'd have been on the train to
morrow. Send em down the river
barefoot!"
"Yes! What about that gang from
Omar?'
"I'm afraid they'll have to take care
of themselves." O'Neil said. "But
The Answer Roared From a Hundred
Throats.
these two men aren't altogether to
blame: they're acting under orders.
Isn't that right?" he asked Thorn.
The miner hesitated, until the grip
in his hair tightened; then, evidetitlj
fearing the menace in the faces on ev
ery side, he decided to seek protection
in a complete confession.
"Yes!" he agreed sullenly. "Gordon
cooked it up. It's all a fake."
O'Neil nodded with satisfaction.
"This is the second time he's tried to
get my men away from me."
"You fellows don't seem able to pro
tect yourselves, so Doc and I will have
to do it for you. Now listen," he con
tinued more gravely. "I meant it
when I said I'd open the commissary
and help you out if the strike were
genuine: but, nevertheless, I want you
to know just what it would have
meant to me. I haven't enough mon
ey to complete the S. II. and N., and I
can't raise enough, but I have signed
an option to sell the road if the bridge
is built by next spring. It's really a
two years' job, and some engineers
don't believe it cau be built at all, but
I know it can if you'll help. If we
fail I'm ruined; if we succeed" he
waves his hands and smiled fit them
cheerfully "maybe we'll build anoth
er railroad somewhere. That's what
this stampede meant. Now, will you
stick "to me?"
The answer roared from a hundred
throats:
"You bet we'll stick!"
When general good feeling was re
stored Murray attempted to make his
way out. but his men seemed determin
ed to thank him one by one, and he was
delayed through n long process of
handshaking. It pleased him to see
that they understood from what hard
ships aud disappointments he had
saved them, and he was doubly grate
ful when Walsh rounded up his crew
atfd announced that the night shift
would resume work at midnight.
He escaped at last, leaving the men
grouped contentedly about huge pans
of smoking doughnuts and pots of cof
fee, which the cook boys had brought
in. Liquor was taboo ia the camp,
V2
WW
but he gave orders that unlimited ci
gars be distributed.
The news of the White river fiasco
reached Curtis Gordon in Seattle,
whither he had gone in a final attempt
to bolster up the tottering fortunes of
the Cortez Home railway. His disap
pointment was keen, yet O'Neil from
the beginning had met his attacks with
such uniform success that new failure
did not really surprise him. It had
been a forlorn hope at best. Strangely
enough, he had begun to lose some
thing of his assurance of late. Al
though lie maintained his outward ap
pearance of confidence with all his
old skill, within himself he felt a grow
ing uneasiness, a lurking doubt of his
abilities. Outwardly there was rea
son enough for discouragement, for,
while his co-operative railroad scheme
had begun brilliantly, its initial suc
cess had not been sustained. As time
passed and Kliza Appleton's exposure
remained unrefuted he had found it
ever , more difficult to enlist support.
His own denials and explanations
seemed powerless to affect the public
mind, aud as he looked back he dated
' his decline from the appearance of her
first article. It had doue all the mis
j chief he had feared. Not only were
his old stockholders dissatisfied, but
wherever he went for aid he found a
disconcerting lack of response, a half
veiled skepticism that was maddening.
Yet his immediate business worries
were not all nor the worst of his
troubles. His physical powers were
waning. To all appearances he was
' as strong as ever, but a strange bodily
lassitude hampered him. He tired
! easily, and against this handicap he
! was forced to struggle continually. Ho
! had never rightly valued his amazing
j equipment of energy until now, when
j some subtle ailment had begun to sap
it. The change was less in his mus
cular strength than in his nerves and
his mental vigor. He found himself
growing peculiarly irritable. His fail
ures excited spasms of blind fury
which left him weak and spent. He
began to suffer the depressing tortures
of insomnia. At times the nerves in
his face ami neck twitched unaccount
ably, and this distressing affection
spread.
A week or two of disappointments
should have shown him the futility of
further effort; at any other time it
would have set him to putting his
house in order for the final crash, but
now it merely enraged him. He re
doubled his activity, launching a new
campaign of publicity so extravagant
and ill timed as to repel the assistance
he needed. He had lost his finesse:
his nicely adjusted financial sense had
gone.
The outcome was not long delayed; it
came in the form of a newspaper dis
patch to the effect that his Cortez bank
had suspended payment because of a
run started by the dissatisfied employ
ees of the railroad. Through ('onion's
flamboyant advertising his enterprises
were so well known by this time that
the story was featured despite his ef
forts to kill it. His frantic cables to
Cortez for a denial only brought as
surances that the report was true and
that conditions would not mend unless
a shipment of currency was immedi
ately forthcoming.
Harassed by reporters, driven on by
i he need for a show of action, he set
out to raise the money, but the support
he had hoped for failed him when it
transpired that his bank's assets con
sisted mainly of real estate at boom
prices and stock in his various compa
nies which had been inflated to the
bursting point. Days passed, a week
or more; then he was complied to re
linquish his option on the steamship
iiiie he had partly purchased and to
sacrifice all that had been paid in on
the' enterprise. This. too. made a big
story for the newspapers, for it punc
tured one of the most imposing corpo
rations in the fatuous "Gordon sys
tem." It likewise threatened to in
volve the others in the general crash.
Hope Consolidated, indeed, still re
mained, and Gordon's declaration that
the value of its shares was more than
suliicient to protect his bank met with
some credence until, swift upon the
heels of the other disasters, came an
application for a receiver by the stock
holders, coupled with the promise rol"
a rigorous investigation into his va
rious financial manipulations. Then
at hist Gordon acknowledged defeat.
Bewildered as he was. half crazed
with anxiety. Gordon knew that the
avalanche had not only wtfeked his
fortunes, but was bearing hint swiftly
toward the penitentiary. its gates
yawned to welcome him. and he felt
a chilling terror such as he had never
known.

ENTERS LIKE A
THIEF IN DEAD
OF THE NIGHT
Devoid of All Pity, Catarrh Fas
tens Its Clutch on Its Victim
Unawares.
Catarrh is one of the most preva
lent of all diseases. Why? Because
it steals upon the victim like a thief
in the night. To be forewarned is to
be forearmed and ready to combat the
condition, but catarrh gives no warn
ing. Before you know it you have ca
tarrh. Catarrh usually is very hard
to overcome.
Catarrh affects almost every organ
in the body ami will finally produce a
condition known as systemic catarrh.
The circulation becomes poor and the
organs suffer. The patient has a gen
eral despondent feeling. Sometimes
catarrh resembles chronic malaria
and again it resembles nervous pros
tration. The kidneys become affect
ed, and the bladder and the stomach.
Then come indigestion, pains and
cramps after eating, kidney affections
which so frequently cause backaches,
especially upon arising in the morn
ing, and many other ills too numerous
to mention.
At the first sign of catarrh you
should do something- to check its
course. The most reasonable, rational
treatment is with a tonic; one that
will aid digestion, enrich the blood and
build up the muscles.
Hundreds of thousands of people
have proclaimed Tanlac an excellent
remedy for catorih. First aid should
be through the stomach, causing
good digestion and from this "hot
bed'' of human ills, good influence is
sent to every portion of the body.
Tanlac is composed entirely of vege
table ingredients selected for their
purity and potency and gathered in
many parts of the world.
Tanlac is being specially introduced
in Plattsmouth at the Mauzey Drug
Company.
Tanlac may also be obtained in
Springfield, at II. Ficgenbaum's store,
and in Weeping1 Water at the Meier
Drug Co.
