CHAPTER I. 1
A Dangerous Errand. j
"A city of hills with a fringe of l
houses crowning the lower heights
half-mountains rising bare- in the
-Background and becoming real moun
tains as they stretched away in the
distance to right and left; a confused
-mass of buildings coming to the
water's edge on the flat; a forest of
masts, ships swinging in the stream,
and the streaked, yellow, gray-green
water of the bay taking a cold light
from the setting sun as it struggled
through the wisps of fog that flut
tered above the serrated sky-line of
the city these were my first impres
sions of San Francisco.
The wind blew fresh and chill from
the west with the damp and salt of
the Pacific heavy upon it, as I
breasted it from the forward deck of
the ferry steamer. El Capitan. As I
drank in the air and was silent with
admiration of the beautiful panorama
that was spread before me, my com
panion touched me on the arm.
"Come into my cabin," he said.
' "You'll be one of those fellows who
can't come to San Francisco without
ratc.hinc his death of cold, and then
lays it on to the climate instead of
his own lack of common sense. Come,
I can't spare you, now I've got you
here at last 1 wouldn't lose you for
a million dollars."
"I'll come for half the money," I
returned, as he took me by the arm
and led mo into the close cabin.
My companion, I should explain,
was Henry Wilton, the son of my
father's cousin, who had the advan
tages of a few years of residence in
California, and sported all the airs
of a pioneer. We had been close
friends through boyhood and youth,
and it was on his offer of employment
that I had come to the city by the
Golden Gate.
"What a resemblance!'" I heard a
. woman exclaim, as we entered the
cabin. "They must be twins."
"There, Henry." I whispered with
a laugh; "you see we are discovered."
Though our relationship was not
close we had been cast in the mold
of some common ancestor. We were
j-o nearly alike in form and feature as
to perplex all but our intimate ac
quaintances, and wc had made the
resemblance the occasion of many
tricks, m our bovhood days.
Henry had heard the exclamation
as well as I. To my surprise, it ap
peared to bring him annoyance or ap
prehension rather than amusement.
"I had forgotten that it would make
us conspicuous," he said, more to
himself than to me, I thought; and
lie glanced through the cabin as
. though he looked for some peril.
"We were used to that long ago,"
I said, as we found a seat. "Is the
business ready for me? You wrote
that you thought it would be in hand
- by the time I got here."
"We can't talk about it here," he
said in a low tone. "There is plenty
of work to be done. It's not hard, but,
as I wrote you, it needs a man of
pluck and discretion. It's delicate
business, you understand, and dan-
gerons if you can't keep your head.
. . But .the danger won't be yours. I've
got that end of it."
"Of course you're not trying to do
anything against the law?" I said.
"Oh, it has nothing to do with the
. law," he replied with an odd smile,
"In fact, it's a little matter in which
we are well, you might say outside
the law."
I gave a gasp at this distressing
suggestion, and Henry chuckled as he
saw the consternation written on my
face. Then he rose and said:
"Come, -the boat is getting in."
"But I want to know " I began.
"Oh. bother your 'want-to-knows.'
It's not against the law just outside
it, you understand. I'll tell you more
of it when we get to my room. Give
me that valise. Come along now."
And as the boat entered the slip we
found ourselves at the front of the
pressing crowd that is always surging
in and out of San Francisco by the
gateway of the Market Street ferry.
As we pushed our way through the
clamoring hack-drivers and hotel-runners
who blocked the entrance to the
city, I was roused by a sudden thrill
of "the instinct of danger that warns
one when he meets the eye of a
snake. It was gone in an instant, but
I had time to trace effect to cause.
The warning came this time from
the eyes of a man, a lithe, keen-faced
man who flashed a look of triumphant
malice on us as he disappeared in the
waiting-room of the ferry-shed. But
the keen face and the basilisk glance
were burned into my mind in that
moment as deeply as though I had
known then what evil was behind
them.
My companion swore softly to him
self. "What's the matter?" I asked.
"Don't look around," he said. "We
are watched."
"The snake-eyed man?"
"Did you see him, too?" His man
ner was careless, but his tone was
. troubled. "I thought I had given him
the slip," he continued. "Well, there's
no help for it now."
"Are we to hunt for a hiding-place?"
I asked doubtfully.
"Oh, no; not now. I was,, going to
take you direct to my room. Now
we are going to a hotel with all the
publicity we can get. Here we are."
In another moment we were in a
lumberine coach, and were whirling
over the rough pavement, through a
confusing maze of streets, past long
rows of dingy, ugly buildings, to the
hotel.
"A room for the night," ordered
Henry, as we entered the hotel of
fice and saluted the clerk.
"Your brother will sleep with you?"
inquired the clerk.
"Yos "
lw.Wi.MwwwM.l.iiMwiw.ilw.
Henry paid the bill, took the key.
and w wore shown to our room. Af-
rer removing the travel-stains, I de
clared myself quite ready to dine.
"We won't need this again." said
Henry, tossing the key on the bu
reau as we left "Or no. on second
thought," he continued, "it's just as
well to leave the door locked. There
might be some inquisitive callers."
And we betook ourselves to a hasty
meal that was not of a nature to
raise mv oninion of San Francisco.
"Are you through?" asked my com
panion, as I shook my head over a
melancholy piece of pie, and laid down
my fork. "Well, take your bag. This
door look pleasant and say nothing."
He led the way to the bar and then
through a back room or 'two. until
with a turn we were in a blind alley.
After a- pause to observe the street
before we ventured forth, Henry
said:
"I guess we're all right now. We
must chance it, anyhow." So we
dodged along In the shadow till we
came to Montgomery Street, and after
a brief walk, turned into a gloomy
doorway and mounted a worn pair of
stairs.
The house was three stories in
height It stood on the corner of an
alley, and the lower floor was in
tended for a store or saloon; but a
renting agent's sign and a collection
of old show-bills ornamenting the
dirty windows testified that it was
vacant.
"This isn't just the place I'd choose
for entertaining friends," said Henry,

aPMa9awavYakBMeveBBWBa9wBHaSBw9RaEKr
mjxiiJOQfc4(xm'i&3W. mj4Ffiram)
with a visible reliel from his uneasi
ness, as we climbed the worn and
dirty stair.
"Oh, that's all right." I said, mag
nanimously accepting his apology.
"It doesn't have all the modern con
veniences," admitted Henry as we
stumbled up the second flight, "but
it's suitable to the business we have
in band, and "
"What's that?" I exclaimed, as a
creaking, rasping sound came from
the hall below.
We stopped and listened, peering
into obscurity beneath.
"It must have been outside," said
Henry, and opened the door of the
last room on the right of the hall.
The room was at the rear corner
of the building. There were twq win
dows, one looking to the west, the
other to the north and opening on the
narrow alley.
"Not so bad after you get in," said
Henry, half as an introduction, half
as an apology. .
"It's luxury after six days of rail
roading," I replied.
"Well, lie down there, and make
the most of it, then," he said, "for
there may be trouble ahead." And he
listened again at the crack of the
door.
"In Heaven's name, Henry, what's"
up?" I exclaimed with some temper.
"You're, as full of mysteries as a
dime novel."
Henry smiled grimly.
"Maybe you don't recognize that
this is serious business," he said.
I was about to protest that I could
not know too much, when Henry
raised his hand with a warning to si
lence. I heard the sound of a cau
tious 'step outside. Then Henry
sprang to the door, flung it open, and
bolted down the passage. There was
the gleam of a revolver in his hand.
lI hurried after him, but as I crossed
the threshold he T"ts coming softly
back, with finger cu his lips.
"I must sec to the guards again. I
can have fhem together by midnight"
-Can I help?"
"No. Just wait here till I. get back.
Bolt the door, and let nobody in bat
me. It isn't likely that they will try
to do anything before midnight If
they do well, here's a revolver.
Shoot through the door if anybody
tries to break it down."
I stood in the door, revolver in
hsCnd. washed him down the hall, and
listened to h.fs footsteps as they d.e-1
scended the stairs and at last faded
away Into the murmur of life that
came up from the open street.
CHAPTER Jl.
A Cry for Help.
I hastily closed and locked the door.
Then I rallied my spirits with some
thing of resolution, and shamed my
self with the reproach that I should
fear to share any danger that Henry
was ready to face. " Wearied as I was
with travel, I was too much excited
for sleep. Reading was equally im
possible. I scarcely glanced at the
shelf of books that hung on the wall,
and turned to a study of my surround
ings. The room was .on the corner, as I
have said, and I threw up the sash of
the west window and looked, out over
ine eti wiuuu ouu iuub, . . "police! Muraer: xieip: x wu cuu
a tangle of old buildings, ramshackle) scj0US that there was a man running
sheds, and an alley that appeared to
lead nowhere.
Some sound of a drunken quarrel
drew my attention to the north win
dow, and I looked out into the alley.
There were shouts and curses, and
one protesting, struggling inebriate
was hurled out from the front door
and left with threats and foul lan
guage, to collect himself from the
pavement "
This edifying incident, which was
explained to me solely by sound, had
scarcely come to an end when a noise
of creaking boards drew my eyes to
the other window. The shutter sud
denly flew around, and a human figure
swung in at the open casing.
"S-h-h!" came the warning whisper,
and "I recognized my supposed robber.
It was Henry. '
"Don'f speak out loud," he said in
suppressed tones. "Wait till I' fasten
this shutter."
"Shall i' shut the window?" I asked.
thoroughly impressed by his manner.
"No, you'll make too much noise,"
he said, stripping off his coat and
vest "Here, change clothes with me.
Quick! It's a case of life and death.
I must be out of here in two minutes.
Do as I say, now. Don't ask ques
tions. I'll tell you about it in a day
or two. No, just the coat and vest
ZZZXfpLio
There give me that collar and tie.
Whegs's your hat?"
The changes, were" completed, or
rather his were, and lie stood looking
as much like me as could' be imag
ined. "Don't stir from this room till I
come back," he whispered. "You can
dress in anything of mine you like.
I'll be in before twelve, .or send a
messenger if I'm not coming. By-by.'"
He was gone before I could say a
word, and only an occasional creaking
board told me of his progress down
the stairs. He had evidently had
some practice in getting about quiet
ly, I could only wonder, as I closed
and locked the door, whether it was
the police or a private enemy that he
was trying to avoid.
I had small time to speculate on
the possibilities, for outside the win
dow I heard the single word, "Help!"
I rushed to the window and looked
out. A band of half a dozen men was
struggling and pushing away from
Montgomery Street into the darker
end of the alley. They were1 nearly
'under the window.
"Give it to him," said a voice.
In an instant there came a scream
of agony. Then a light showed and
AUTOS AT A
California Hunt Not as Successful as
Had Been Hoped For.
A large crowd of San Joaquin coun
ty residents assembled at the Bol
linger ranch, in the eastern part of
the county, and enjoyed a coyote
drive, which was not as destructive
as the people of that district hoped
for, as the animals kept out of sight
and only a few were killed. Of late
the coyotes have been killing sheep,
pigs and chickens. The scarcity of
dead animals has caused the coyotes
to invade the ranches and give the
farmer a lot cf trouble. As a general
rule, these animals seldom attack
stock, but when driven to starvation
they become bold.
Jt was with the hope that a large
number would be killed that a general
invitation was extended to the people
to assemble and make a roundup.' All
kinds of vehicles, from the old fash
a tell, broad-shouldered figure leaped
back
"These aren't the papers," it hissed.
"Curse you, you've got the wrong
man!" There was a moment of confusion,"
and the light flashed oh the man whd
had spoken and was gone. But the
flash had shown me the face of a man
I could never forget It was a strong,
cruel, wolfish face the7 face of a man
near sixty, with a fierce yellow-gray
mustache and imperial a face broad
at the temples and tapering down into
a firm, unyielding jaw, and marked
then with all the lines of rage, hatred,
and chagrin at the failure of his plans.
It took not a second for me to see
and hear and know allthis, for the
vision came and was gone in the
drooping of an eyelid. And then there
echoed through the alley loud cries of
"Police! Murder! Help!" I was con-
through the hall and down the rickety
stairs, making the building ring to
the same cries.
It was thus with a feeling of sur
prise that I found myself in the street
and came to know that the cries for
help had come from me, and that I
was the man who had run through the
hall and down the stairs shouting for
the police. The street was empty.
Fortunately the policeman on the
beat was at hand, and I hailed him
excitedly.
"Only rolling a drunk," he said
lightly, as I told of what I had seen.
"No, it's worse than that I Insisted.
"Thprp was murder done, and I'm
afraid it's my friend."
He listened more attentively as I
told him how Henry had left the
house just before the cry for help had
risen!
"It's a nasty place," he continued.
"It's lucky I've got a light." He
brought up a dark lantern from his
overcoat pocket, and stodd in the
shelter of the building as he lighted
it "There's not many as carries "em,"
he continued, "but they're mighty
handy at times."
We made our way to the point be
neath the window, where the men had
stood.
There was nothing to be seen no
sign of struggle, no shred of torn
clothing, no drop of blood. Body,
traces and all had disappeared.
CHAPTER III.
A Question in the Night
I was stricken dumb at this end to
the investigation, and half doubted
the evidence of my eyes.
"Well," said the policeman, with a
sigh of relief, "there's nothing here.
I suspected that his doubts cf my
sanity were 'returning.
"Here is where it was done," I as
serted stoutly, pointing to the spot
where I had seen the struggling group
from the window. "There were surely
ffve or six men in it"
"It's hard to make sure of things
from above in this light," said the
policeman, hinting once more his sus
picion that I was confusing dreams
with reality.
"There was no mistaking that job."
I said. "See here, the alley leads
farther back. Bring your light"
A few "paces farther the alley turned
at a right angle to the north. We
looked narrowly for a ,bcdy, and then
for traces that might give hint of the
passage of a party.
I "Nothing here," said the policeman,
as we came out on inc oiuer sueci.
"Maybe they've carried him into one
of these back-door dens, and maybe
they whisked him into a hack here
and are a mile or two away by now."
"But we must follow them. He may
be only wounded and .can be rescued.
And these men can be caught" 1
was' almost hysterical in my eager
ness. "Aisy, aisy, now," said the police
man. "Go back to your room, now.
That's the safest place for you, and
I you can't do nothin' at all out here
I'll report the case to the head office,
an we'll send out the alarm to the
force. Now, here's your door. Just
'rest aisy, arid they'll let you know if
anytbing's found."
And he passed on, leaving me dazed
with dread and despair in the en
trance of the fateful house.
Once more in the room to wait till
morning should give me a chance to
work, 1 looked about the dingy place
with a heart sunk to the lowest
depths. 1 was alone in the face of
this mystery. I had not one friend
-in the city to whom I could appeal
for sympathy, advice or money. Yet
I should need all of these to follow
this business to the end to learn the
fate of my cousin, to rescue him, if
alivfe and to avenge him, if dead.
Then, in the hope that I might find
something among Henry's effects to
give me a clue to the men who had
attacked him, I went carefully,
through his clothes and papers. But
I found that he did not leave memo
randa of his business lying about
The only scrap that could have a pos
sible bearing on it was a sheet of
paper in the coat he had changed
with me. It bore a rough map, show
ing a road branching thrice, with
crosses marked here and there upon
it. Underneath was written:
