CHAPTER XIII.
A Cirl Like Her.
T was dark, the ni.ht of that
second day. when Stephen
O'Mara came quietly up to
the opon door of his own
lighted shack and stopped for a mo
iient to paxe in at the two men. whose
faces were touched by the jilow of the
lamp on tin? table. There had' been
Juo"e than one moment in those foity-
i.uht hours which had elapsed since he

wondered whether Garry I'evereau
would oven await his return to. Thirty
Mile.
Save for a short and casual "See you
in the niornin?," Stephen O'Mara turn
ed without a word that night to leave
the Improvised sleeping cjuarters in the
storehouse shack.
lie looked at (J any nodding drowsily
on a bunk and then at Fat Joe seated
near him. Their eyes held for a mo
ment before Steve turned again toward
the door. And perhaps his manner
was a little too unconcerned that even
In::, a little too carefully careless, for
almost before he had lifted the latch
Fat Joe stepped forward cue quick,
protesting step and then stopped ou
second thought.
"You ain't coin' " he began, and
suffered that spoken protest also to re
train uncompleted.
"It's not late." Steve's voice was
thoughtful. "It's not late, but it's sure
ly very quiet." lie stood gazing out
into the gloom. "Maybe I'd best run
down and see what ails oar visitor of
the other night. Somehow the more
I've thought about it the more I've
come to fear that he is temperamental.
Joe, too temperamental for such a
wearing proposition as this one is like
ly to be. And you haven't slept much
Fince I've been gone. Oh, that was
easy. Just from your eyes! So you'd
better turn in. I'll just stroll down and
let them know that I'm back home."
It is odd how much of finality there
can be in the quietest of statements.
I '.yes narrowed, .Toe stood in the middle
of the floor and watched him depart
without further objection. But the
moment the blackness had swallowed
him up he backed to the bunk, fum
bled for a gun which Steve liad tossed
upon the blankets and followed out
into the dark.
Stephen O'Mara stood a long time
outside the door of the workmen's
bnnkhouse that iiisfyr, lingers upon the
latch, before he made any move to
enter. I.ut neither a wish to eaves
drop nor a desire to frame experimen
tally the words he meant to speak was
the reason behind that pause. It was
in itself a new thing to find the long,
low building lighted at that hour, even
tlyugn. as he had himself put it to
Joe an instant before, it was hours
from being late. That night the al
most absolute silence beyond the closed
dnoi was an even more unusual state
of affairs. The voice of one man only
was audible, the words he spoke hi
tl'siinguisbable altogether. IHit sud
den bursts of laughter, punctuating the
recital which he oou!dnot clearly fol
low, were indication : enough to the
man outside of what manner of tale
was holding the ears of that roomful
of rivermen. Stephen O'Mara. who
had long ceased to wonder at the dis
covery in them of new and impulsive
finenesses which bordered close upon
inherent nobility, knew fully as well
how utterably and unspeakably gross
could be the premeditated coarseness
of those same men.
There was no movement to mark his
entrance when he finally pressed the
latch and swung the door open, not
so much as a single glance to indicate
that his presence was noted. Under
the vcllow light of flickering oil lamps
the eyes of all those scores of gaudy
shiitcd figures lounging against the
walls were fixed eagerly upon the face
of him who held the middle of their
stage him who talked from where he
half lay, propped on one elbow, In his
bunk at the end of the room. Harri
dan, red shirted, red headed, was
lounging -ct ease, waiting for the last
gurgle of appreciation to subside be
fore he gave them the close of the
story, the last titbit, the savor of
whlih already had set him noisily to
licking his lips. And in the doorway
Steve, rigi l of a sudden, sensed what
that ciimax was to be.
"Ilcr fi-an-say inside" the droning
ly indistinguishable words were very
plain now "her fi-an-say inside, con
boomed with pride and anticipation,
tellin all who had come to dance that
she had pr-romised to be his for-rlver
more. And her at that same minute
outside with him, and both av thim"
Ilariigan did not hurry it in the tell
rx. And if his portrayal of Archi
bald Wicket-skam was unmistakably
deliberate, neither did he fail for want
of sufficient detail to make the other
picture clear. Vilely --he gave them the
jomplete imagery of his vile brain.
A shout wsnt up, a lender, hoarser
outcry of applause which rocked the
room, And tb?n that rigid figure in .
n ,7-
mo.
the t.K.j'xr cortiv ;-,;!; .
the doorway had started forward. Be
tween those lanes of suddenly silent
men Steve passed in silence, to stand
before him who had achieved his cli
max a breath before. And at his com
ing llarrigan slid from the bunk, start
ed to reach within the blanket pack at
the head of what had been his lied and
then thought better of such impulse.
Bravado intermingled with blank sur
prise, he came haltingly to his feet.
The voices of few men have been as
unhurriedly deadly as was that of him
who faced llarrigan that night.
"That was wise, llarrigan." Steve
told him slowly far too gently. "That
was wise to let your knife lie safe
within your pack, for if you'd touched
It I'd have killed you, as I ought to kill
you now. But you're drunk, llarri
gan. You were drunk a minute ago
when you lied your lie. You're sober
er now. You're sober enough to start
again and tell me you're a liar."
They waited the roomful of river
men. Nothing stirred save the clouds
o! filmy blue smoke floating against
ths rafters that and a bulky blot of
shadow outside which shifted a little,
noiselessly, just beyond the patch of
light that streamed through the door.
They waited, heavy breathed, while
llarrigan began to recover from the
disconcertment into which O'Mara's
coining had flung him. Slowly the
former's lips twisted into a mocking
leer; mockery rose and swam with the
hatred in his inflamed eyes. He would
have spoken, sparring for time, when
Steve's hand leaped in and made of the
joking effort only a rattle in his throat.
Beneath the stiff red stubble the flesh
was livid where those fingers had been
when he was vable to draw breath
again.
" 'Twas only a bit av a joke," he
gasped and gulped and swallowed
hard. " 'Twas only a bit av a joke I
was tellin' the bhoys about seein' you
an' "
Steve'3 voice bit In and cut him
short.
"Your turkey's ready, llarrigan!" ITe
pointed at the pack toward which the
"There's not room for both of us on
this river.'
other had groped and then thought
better of the Impulse. "You were go
ing of your own accord. I see. Well,
I'm telling you to go now! The door's
open. I left it so for you when I
came in. And I'm telling you, too, be
fore you leave that you'll do well not
to come back. There's not room for
both of us ou this fiver any more, llar
rigan!" The riverman's eyes shifted. Fur
tively they flitted from face to face in
those rows of faces at the walls. But
whatever he thought or hoped to find
fleeting flash of support or encourage
mentwas hidden behind a common
mask of astonishment as blank as had
been his own. They were waiting for
his answer. He knew they were wait
ing for that as he crossed to the door.
And when he paused there, to turn in
.sudden savagery, he realized that his
tardiness had robbed him of his
chance. It was too late to talk back
then.
"Y'ou're tellin" me," he rasped out,
"and I was goin sur-re! But things
ar-re not yet finished between you and
me, for I'm pr-romisin' you that I'll
be back. I'm pr-romisin you I'll be
wid ye again. I'll be wid ye again,
come spring!"
lie disappeared. And hard upon his
going Steve wheeled and fronted those
scores of silent "men. His eyes leaped
from point to point, as Harrigan's had
craftily flitted. Briefly, crisply, he ac
companied the sweeping survey with
a voice that was loud enough for all of
them to hear.
i
"Big Louie! Fallon! Shayne! This
i is your change to say so if you're go
' m: to ne lonesome, now tnat tout
song bird has flown. Speak up! I
camp, down tonight Just to -hear you
i
J
talk."
Nothing but an indistinguishable
murmur answered him. a low growl
that was neither argument nor eva
sion. Rebellion was still a mug way
ahead for most of them. They had not
yet had time to talk themselves to the
pitch of open revolt. They had merely
begun to listen to Harrigsn. whose dis
ciples in dissatisfaction they were.
And now In his absence they stirred
uncomfortably under the gaze of him
who remained. They dropped their
heads and searched for matches. But
Steve felt the weight of unspoken
thoughts when he, too. faced back in
fhe doorway. This time there was no
naming of names. He embraced tin?
whole room when he spoke.
"They tell me," Steve continued, "that
there's talk among you of no more
work on the river when we've put this
railroad through. I've heard it said
that some of you think you are cutting
the ground out from under your feet
with everv shovelful of earth you lift.
You ought to know better than that.
You ought to know for yourselves that
there'll 1 e need for more men in these
woods than there has ever been before.
But if you don't, if you en n't' sec it
thr't wav. whv not come around and
let me have a fair chance to talk
things over with you myself before
you decide to turn on this job? I want
von to remember that a man who is a
liar in one thing is mighty likely to
talk loose tongued. no matter what he
preaches."
And there, without lifting his eyes
from the floor. Big I.oule cleared his
throat and made answer.
"Maybe," he retorted "maybe, and
maybe not so sure either! I havjj lis
tened to big words beforo-uow, me,
that have put no food under my belt,
no coat to my back."
"If it's only food and shelter and
clothes for your back. Big Louie, you'll
not have to worry. But I'm not prom
ising either, mind, that there'll be c:wy
money to blow on white whisky. AYere
you expecting any?"
That brain which' could cope with
but one idea at a time was fertile
ground for seed whi h such a one as
llarrigan might row. Big Louie fail
ed to reply. lie sat quiet, deep in
thought, when Stephen O'Mara closed
the door noiselessly behind him.
It was minutes after Steve h;J gone
back up the hill before Garry Iever
eau reached out a hand in the darkv
ness md touched, experimentally, what
had seemed to be only a shapeless
black blotch at the edge of light, a
rod or two from the door. And in
stantly at Ids touch the shadow was
galvanized into life. It reared and
plunged and enveloped the slighter
man in a crushing embrace and bore
him over backward. With the muzzle
of a revolver chafing his ear (Tirry
managed' to worry his head hi-zh
enough to free his mouth and nostrils
from dirt.
"(let off me! Oct off mo, you fat
romancer, you!" he whimpered fiercely.
An explosive grunt of dismay an
swered him before Fat Joe let him rise.
In a thin and profane tenor he was
bidden to explain his presence there.
"I couldn't sleep," Garry replied, his
voice still peevish, "so I came out for
a breath of air. I saw him str;rt this
way saw you following him with that
gun in your hrmd. I just slipped over,
too. In case there noght be doings.
What's the row, Joe?"
Joe tool: him ungentiy by the elbow,
turned him about and started him up
the rise.
"An old grudge." he deigned an un
gracious explanation. "It's years and
years old. Steve licked him once.
Once when they were boys the folks
that live down next to Allison's dress
ed Steve up like a picture book, tiie
nearest I can make outVand sent him
to town a-shoppin.. llarrigan, he"
"I know! I remember!" Garry's eager
whisper interrupted. "That is, I didn't
know that llarrigan was one of the
mob Steve whipped that day. But that
wasn't what I, meant. Who was the
the girl llarrigan was talking about
when Steve when Sieve"
Joe's fingers tightened a little as the
other evinced a tendency to lag.
"Hurry a bit, will you?" he iHged
compiainingly. "Show a little speed!
I'm supposed to be up thcr: artloop."
And then, gruffly, "It was the Allison
girl, of course."
In spite of the hand upon his elbow
Garrett Devereau stopped short in his
tracks.
"Barbara!" he stammered. "Barbara
Allison? Joe, was that Ihe girl he
meant tonight when he said he was
going to 'marry one of those women
himself?"'
Joe peered at him, trying to make
out the expression upon his face.
"Why not?" he wanted to know.
"Why not? Ain't he good enough for
her?"
There came a pause; then Garry's
stunned rejoinder.
"Good enough!' he repeated sense
lessly. "Good enough?" He laughed
half wildly, as though he had sudden
ly hit upon a very funny "thought in
deed. "That man in love with a girl
like her good Lord!"
And Fat Joe, who had failed to un
derstand, swore again beneath his
breath because there was no time left
in which to argue the matter. His
face was still very red from his strug
gle for self restraint and his whole
mental balance so disturbed that ho
forgef 'entirely conceal the blued re
volver dangling In one ha ml when he
re-entered the cabin a moment later.
The latter object ruined the effect of
his insouciant rendition of "Home.
Sweet Home."
"Thought you were going to retire,
Joe?"
Steve was already undressed and
crawling into bed. Ills question was
slow worded and a trifle stiiScd.
"I was," Joe assured him hastily. "I
was. I ju?t stepp'---! out to see that ev
erything was tl;-Iit and tidy for the
night; that's all."
(Quizzical eyes contemplated the re
volver now.
"Taken to carrying a weapon, after
all, eh? Well, perhaps that's wisest.
And blow but the light, will you, Joe?
I'm tired. You'll have to undress in
the dark."
Then Steve buried his face in his
pillow. But sundry sounds, escaping,
were unmistakably hysterical. Joe's
mouth opened and closed, fishlike. He
stood and stared down at his side in
beautifully eloquent profanity, if a
stare can be both eloquent? and pro
fane. "You need a nurse," he stated sulki
ly at last. He finished the light with
a vicious blast. "You r.cel a chap
eron!" But once again, just before ho slept.
Steve heard him mutter to himself less
in.iuredly as he heaved over in his
bunk.
"This lias been a very bu;-y even
ing." he opined. .

New York, Nov? 5. The Herald's
pie-election country wide poll, pub
lished today, will predict the re-elec
tion cf Woodrow Wilson, by a sweep
ing majority. The Herald gives the ;
president 307 electoral votes to
Hughes 224. The Chicago Herald also
will predict Mr. Wilson's re-election.
The (Buffalo) Courier's poll cover
ing 32.1 per cent of the registered
vote of the city of Buffalo shows Wil
son 14,413, Hughes 10,102.
The Columbus (Ohio) dispatch
poll, covering eighty-two of Ohio's
eighty-eight counties shows Wilson
43,7-18, Hughes 20,807. The Dispatch
predicts cn this result that Wilson
will carry Ohio by more than 100,000.
When the Hughes meeting at Madi
son Square garden last night was to
have been called to order at S o'clock,
there were so many vacant scats that
the alarmed Hughes managers sent
out a hurry call for republican work
ers to fill up the big auditorium be
fore the candidate arrived. Despite
their energetic efforts, thousands of
seats wore unfilled. Elaborate police
arrangements were made by the
Hughes managers, in view of the tre
mendous throngs at the Wilson meet
ing Thursday. In.tead of streets
packed for blocks, there were a num
ber of republican workers inviting
parsers

As a result of the frost last night

"Ser.ator Hitchcock's opponent
spent two years in the lower house of
congress, yet in that time he did noth

to during this campaign as a reason
for his election.
"And during Mr. Kennedy's service,
he it remembered, his party was the
majority party in congress.
"Senator Hitchcock's influence was
