i That Alaskan night was of tho foul
eat I A fretful kamook bayed diurnal
3y on tho opposlto shoro whoro Halda
Indians sometimes dwoll on tholr
canoo voyages among tho Prince ot
Wales Islands. Tho Coplan Coppor
company's emcltcr cast fitful patterns
ot light and shadow upon tho freezing
bay. Tho wild voice of tho hills sm'oto
tho sea beyond with a hiss and roar.
January was in angry mood in the
wilderness as I kicked tho snow from
my boota beforo tho doctor's cabin,
and his hound uttered a long, low
growl within. It seomed but a mo
ment when our pipes wero loaded, tho
"whuBkoy" on tho rudo tablo besldo us,
and tho fire roaring in the doctor's lit
tlo rusty stovo.
Turning EUddonly and bringing his
flst to tho level of my faco, the llttlo
man unpacked himself brusquely:
"Am I correctly informed that
you'ro leaving camp for tho east on
tho next boat?"
"That's my intention unless this
storm detains me."
"Well, sir," continued tho doctor, as
he placed a foot on the "hound's thick
nock and recharged his glass, "I hope
nothing will lntorfero with your leav
ing but I can't see the horizon of a
llttlo moss down near the Indian quar

and it'll explode any minute."
Whon the doctor rummaged for two
black shroud-llko gowns and careless
ly throw them-across tho bed, I sus
poctcd that wo wero either to lynch
somebody, commit a corpse to tho sea
or participate in some ghoulish cere
mony of pagan belief amongot tho
Slwaah across tho bay. Finally I
blurted: "Doe, what are these black
kimonos for? Looks llko a hanging."
"It might bettor be a bangin'," bo
retorted, pawing amongst his apothe
cary stores, from whiob he occasion
ally set osldo a package. "It's small
pox! That's what it la in a camp
of panicky miners roady to bolt on tho
first whiff. Smallpox fourteon-day-stage,
and a pest bouse harboring the

Bmallpox!"
Then with a toss of tho head and
ono of those sudden turn, upon bis
auditor which characterized all his in
tense utterances, he growled: "Como

We skulked along tho beach as far
as possible from tho glaro of tho
smelter. Black buzzards, sheltering In
a wood pile, chattorod raucously.
Tho doctor whlsperod: "Our plan,
romomber. If tho buck shows fight,
do yonr part; I'll do mine. We'll
avoid a rough-and-tumble as long as

Wo remained for a moment In the

the "Job" about to be perpetrated.

Tho hat reeked with tho foul stench
peculiar to the domestic conditions of

We lured the Indian outside Our

sweet air ot tho Alaskan forest, intox
icated mo.
Tho doctor began menacingly:
"Why didn't you rldo out on tho morn

dangered tho, health of tho whole

The Indian replied sullenly as he
movod toward tho canoo upon the
beach. "Squaw too sick. Hunt for
meat all day. I go when tho water
sleeps mebbe soonly." He turned de
fiantly with clenched fists.
"Seo here, Thllnklt, you'vo come

Now, we'll do this quietly or we'll do

drow his pistol while I entered the
hut and seized tho Indian's rlflo.
A long dory-llko canoe was torn
from tho thin Ico Into whtch It lay
bedded. The brutal duty was under

Having given his commands, tho
doctor Joined in somo mighty shoving
and ousslng to get ,tio boat away;
tho Indian's reluctant paddlo caught
the water lazily, and the deeply laden
craft ot disease and death, and hatred
of tho white man, finally pointed her
angular nose toward an unknown and
a doubtful fate. I looked around for
Doc, beforo setting tho hut aflro and
burnlne tho last vestlgo of the case
that had worried him. He was not

from tho Indian's dying flro. I hol
loed softly, and, gazing toward tho
disappearing boat descried his squot
flguro with a paddlo. la tho bow!
WaB It possible? YeB, thoro ho was
and from thoro ho called to mo this
weird adieu: "Good night, old chap.

was a dirty Job for you."
I heard no more except tho woolles
gathering nloft nnd hitting tho distant
coa with a roar. Tho sturdy llttlo
Doc would "finish tho Job alonol"
Flrlntr tho hut from the Inside I
Enenkcd through tho camp toward the
doctor's shack.
It bo happened (ns It always hap
pens) that on tho day nfter ray grue
some Job with Dr. Dickson, ono or tho
visiting eastern directors had a "trc
menjus case of crampa," as tbo super
intendent Impressively announced.
"Now, whero waB that good-for-nothing,
lying, scheming llttlo Doc? Why,
l-drunk nbed, of course"
So, with thlB verdict, a collection of
exasperated directors visited Dick
son's shack to rout him out Tho door
unlocked, but tho doctor was nowhero
In camp. A meeting of the directors
was called whloh resolved that it was
dangerous to the camp to continue tho
employment of a man who was this,
that and tho other bad, lncompotont,
unfnithrul thing. So Doo was dis
charged on tho spot, the while an In
vitation waB propared to another phy
sician at Juneau to como and fill tho
exalted nosltlon.
It was an Innate sense of respon
sibility which impoilea me to stem
away on the third night after Dick
Bon had gono to sea with his sick
wards. Packing my light kit I bun
dlod up what remained and left It
labolod to follow mo in tho Mary Ann
when tho visiting directors returned to
Ketchikan. My noto to them did not
create a favorable impression of my
attontlvcness to their distressed busi
ness. "Gentlemen: Ab I may serve you
moro by finding Dr. Dickson than by
remaining In camp, I have left como
of my duffio to accompany you on
your voyage to Ketchikan. I am
cruising down tho bay to hunt for him
and for bears. Whllo sailing, pleaBe
look for my flro and a freBhly-blazed
Bpruce on your port Bide. Kindly blow
the launch whlstltfsvery two mllos
down. I ought to be from six to olght
miles south on. tho west coast of
Prince of Wales Island."
From tho doctor's shack I appro
priated his rifle, a supply ot ammuni
tion and such medicines as I thought
bo might need; also I took some
Scotch whisky, and brandy, pies and
tobacco, a cot, tont and bedding, a
stovo, shotgun and shells, field glass,
disinfectants, and all the provisions I
could lnduce-tbo cook to hand out.
Ono of tho squaw's babies bad died
on tho day following tholr rough voy
age from tho mlno. "And tho other
llttlo varmint," said Dickson softly,
"will paBs in his checks presently. Tho
squaw'llkpull through It tbo buck don't
lay down this week. I'm goln' to
stand by tho case n while longer If
you sal the boss iBn't cussln' of me"
Early tho noxt day wo hoard tho
siren of tho Mary Ann. Tho launch
was sailing down tbo bay. What I
said to the rubicund and pudgy Doc,
and JuBt what ho Bald to mo as ho
stood off twenty yards or so with eyes
of greater eloquenco than his quaint
tonguo had over known, doesn't mat
tor hero and now. Sufllco It that I
made my short but tangled way to tho
nhoro alone, Btood under Doc's pink
shirt and near tho fat now blazo and
waltod for tbo Mary Ann. Hor plrnto
captain, soolng mo waving a small
birch signal-fashion, stopped his en
glno and drifted as closo as he deemed
prudent in a few moments the launch
lifeboat had taken mo aboard nnd to
a cabin lead of sleepy directors. Thoy
suddenly perked up with u chorus of
questions concerning "tho IrrenponBl
bio llttlo ncanip."
Yen, I had found him In tho interior
of tho iBlnnd. Ho had fallen in with
somo Indians, ami, well, to bo quite,
frank, ho hnd nsked mo If tho man
agement and directors missed him,
nnd If I would convey to thorn his
apologies for leaving camp without
tho usunl polite exchange of u good
bye nnd bo forth.
TuIh twaddle exasperated them aH I
had Intended. Their lnngungo of and
concerning liltlo Dickson shall havo
to lie fumigated beforo public use can
be made of It.
My violent and obsequious friend,
Captain I'urloso, nnd I wero alono in
tho wheel hotiso whero ho kept his
oyes on tho company's mall bag. An I i
copied tho bag a villainous idea ttclzed
upon me
"Havo n smoke, Cap'u?" I offered
tho bandit this bit of eastern hos
pitality In my most percuaslvo
plnnlsslmo.
"Cap'n," I began, leaning over bis
smelly, llttlo black nnd tan flguro In
a confidential, warm-hearted manner,
' Cnp'n, I wroto Dr. Kumpus ot Juneau
a letter at tho mlno which I think I
ought not to send him until I havo
econ nomo one In Hcattlc. Just let mo
oj.en that bag a mlnuto and I'll with-
draw It beforo I forget It In tho rush
at Kctt'iikan."
"Cert," piped tho captain, llko tho i
good, bravo soul thnt ho is, "hero's
tho key." Then looking around fierce
ly at nothing, bo half whlapercd:
"Just turn tho koy in tho wheel
bouso door. Them gents from Massy
chowsltt might butt in nforo 'you'
dono It."
So, having "dono It" In a Jiffy, I felt
assured that tho temporary custody ot
Dr. Bumpus letter gavo mo control ot
tho situation creatod by my all-too-prcclpltato
frlonda, tho dlrcctora.
JuBt beforo wo nailed from Ketchi
kan I enclosod tho Bumpus letter In
ono of my own and addressed it back
to the company's manager at tho mine
Those letters, thcroforo, went to tho
mlno on tho Mary Ann'n roturn trip
and wero In tho manager's hands on
tho fourth day following our dopar
turo from Ketchikan for Vancouver.
This Is what I wrote tho manager,
a man preposterously Jealous of his
official prerogative:
"I beg to enclose the letter you ad
dressed to Dr. Bumpus, pursuant to the
direction ot your board while I was in
camp. In a fortnight Da Dickson will
return and explain the Important nenrloa
he has been ronacrlns your company.
"Inasmuch as my counsel and odvioe
concerning your company has beon the
object of my oramlnntlon of Its proper
ties and affaire, I suggest that nothing
be said to apprlso Dr. Dickson of tho
action ot your board, nor of Its lnjustloe
to him. I should rejrnnl tho doctor's
rcsttrnatlon from your staff, at this time,
as a serious calamity.
"Meantime, I am explaining the doc
tor's absenco to tho directors while they
aro on their way to Vancouver."
"Groat little runt, that camp doctor
at tho mine," I soliloquized, as wo
finally dobarked from tho steamor and
cottlod Into a Pullman bound for Se
attle. "What's that?" camo a Bcreechlng
and derlslvo chorus. "He's a llttlo
beast, and If"
"Now, Beo hero, gentlomon, I'vo de
termined to raise you to tho lofty lovel
of that little cut, botweon horo and
Seattle or wreck this train In tho at
tempt." So I told thorn of tho heroism ot
thlB runt of tho wirderneBS, and hoard
their snivels and saw tholr tears, tholr
hedging and squirming and Justifying
and all that mon do whoso conduct
should bring regret and remorse
A month thereafter I received this
assuring report:
"Kotchlkan. SS. AlosTw.
"Dear Mr. Hobs:
"I'm well apUnfl btu badly pocked, dot
away from the Cape an soon as I dared,
and came here. The squaw pulled

I was down. Still. I've a mind to lick
him aplonty whon I trot strong- again.
"Two of the boys wont to the mine,
sneaked my things aboard the Mary Ann,
and left my written respects for that
manager. I shall have htm also to beat
up when ho comes my way. There's a
rumor hero that he has been discharged.
"I've heard something of what you did

Itozeklnh was tho good son of n bnd
father, Ahnz; and Aha, was tho bad
son of a good father, Jothuni; nnd
after the good llezcklnh camo his bad
son, Mannscch. Hut thcro must havo
been reasons back of theso scenting
contradictions. In llozcklnh'n enso
ono may havo been his mother, Ahljnh
tho daughter (or granddaughter) of
'.ccharlah. Twonty-nlno Zecharlahs
aro mentioned In tho Hlblo. Thin was
not tho nuthor of tho book of proph
ecy, but may havo beon tho prophet
who hnd so much Influence over King
LV.7.lah.
llczcklnh did that which wns right
In tho eyes of tho Lord. God'H ap
proval Is tho only wise goal for a king,
a president or tho humblest eltlzon.
It la tho fatal defect In most forms of
government that this ovor-rulo of Clod
Is Ignorud.
llezeklah began his reign by doing
tho thing that plainly needed most
to ho dono Drat. Ho found tho Tem
ple, tho pnerod mooting plnro of God
and mnu, with Its doom closed by
Ainu, lt.i lamps out, Its altani cold, Its
floors and hangings covered with dust
and dirt. Thcroforo tho young king
summoned tho priests and I.cvllcs to
tho court on tho cast of tho Temple
opposlto tho closed porch or entrance,
and In a frank and noble addrcsa do
dared hlii conviction that nil tho na
tional wncu had tholr origin In n neg
lect of tho worship of Jehovah, nnd
hlr. determination to make a new cov-
i-natit with tho Lord. Then h hado ,
them, as tholr first task, to cleanso (
tho Templo thoroughly.
Tho Second Step tho Worhhlp and
Praise Thus far tho prlcstH ami Lo
vlles alono had been purified. Now j
tho royal houno nnd tho peoplo wore i
to bo formally reconciled to Jehovah.
How was this dono? llezeklah gath
ered the chief men of Jerusalem, who
brought bullocks, lambs, rams, and ho-
goatB for a sin offering, seven of each.
Tho city rulers laid their hnnds upon
tho animals, thUB Identifying thorn-
solves with them. Thon tho priests
killed tho animals and Bprlnkled their
blood beforo tho veil In tho Holy
Plnco and upon tho altar ot lncenso,
pouring out tho romnlndor at the
bnso of tho altar of burnt offerings In
tho court beforo tho Temple Tho fat
of tho offerings was burned on tho
altar of burnt offerings, and tho flosh
was afterwards eaten by tho priests.
It was a mark of tho now national
fooling that nroso during Hozoklnh's
reign that this offering nnd thoso that
followed wero not mndo for Judah
alono, but for tho Northern Kingdom
as well.
Tho Third Step, the Wldo Invi
tatton. What was tho next stop in
tho great roform? Tho holding of tho
national feast of remembranco ot
God's goodness, tho pusaovor. This
should havo been celebrated In the
first month of the year, Nlsan, corre
sponding to our April; but bocauso
not enough ot tho prloats hnd beon
purified and bocauso of tho tlmo re
quired to gather tho people, It was do
clded that tho exlgoncy warranted tho
postponement to tho nexf month, Iyar
or Mny. A3 tho reform had widened
from llezeklah to tho priests and Lo
vltes, thon to tho chlof men of Joru
calem, then to tho wholo congrega
tion of citizens, tho noxt stop was to
oxtond it to tho cntlro nation, from
Beor-shoba, oven to Dan.
Tho Fourth Step Is tho Great
Passover. Whnt further purification
was needed beforo the paauovor could
bo celebrated? Jerusalem was full of
heathen altars "In every corner," and
thoso wero torn down and tho frag
ments cast into tho Kldron.
Tho Fifth Step Is tho Generous
Giving. What other Illustration of
their zeal did tno peoplo glvo when
tho passover wan completed? Their
now ardor for Jehovah blazed out In a
burning indignation against tho foul
Idols which they had beer, worshiping.
It was as whon "Petor tho 'Hormlt
aroused wholo multitudes to tho wild
est enthusiasm for tho rescuo of tho
Holy Sepulcher, or even tho dour
Scotch Lowlandor blazed up llko an
excttablo Celt at tho Initiative of Jen
ny Geddcs. How much moro theso
fiery Orientals? Jerusalem had boen
freed from Idols; why should the
country districts still bo polluted?"
Thus tho peoplo swept llko a flood
over Judah and nenjamln and the
neighboring Ephrfam and Manasseh.
Thoy broko tho heathen "Images" or
pillars, cut down tho "groves" or poles
set up as symbols of tho licentious
Asherah, nnd overthrow tho Idolatrous
hill sanctimrloa and their ultnrs.
Reforms must bo thorough, If they
aro to bo permanent.
Whnt was tho last step in Heze
klah's reform? Tho stop which evory
reform must tako beforo It Is com
plete, that ot permanent organization.
Tho secret of Ilezoklah's power over
mon and success In tho Borvlco of
God? It Is expressed in tho noblo
words with which tho chronicler
closes his account of tho groat refor
mation: "In overy work that ho began
in tho Borvlco of tho house of God,
nnd In tho law, and In the command
ments, to seek his God, he did it with
all his hoart, and prospered."
