Kyne iJ .'i [ ' ' ' ' O "PLEASE LET ME HEAR FROM YOU. - * * John Stuart Webster, mining engineer, man's man. 89 years younc board it a train Valley, California, on his way back to clvlll*atlon after clean ing UD JIOO.OOO. He la dreaming of cool bathe, silk pajamas and ham and eggs. But he looks like a hobo to the porter and the conductor. His way of chang ing their views gives a hint of the mettle of the man. Then he meets a dis cussed lady, who makes his heart flop over for the first time in all his days. > He eliminates the offending man after the style of the man's man the world over. Being yhat he Is aad Also girl-shy, he does not take advantage of his opportunity. But t\» Just had to find out who the no-longer-dlstressed lady Is, being determined to hatch up a scheme to meet her again—and marry her. She is Dolores Ruey. i " . l CHAPTER ll—Continued. Webster struck tbe upholstery of an adjacent chair a terrific blow with his stick —the effect of which was to cause everybody In tbe room to start and to conceal Mr. Webster momentarily In a cloud of dust, the while In a bel lowing baritone he sang: "His father was a hard-rock miner; He comes from my home town " "Jack Webster I The devil's own Wn!" shouted Neddy Jerome. He swept the cards Into a heap and wad dled across, the room to meet this latest assailant of the peace and dig nity of the Engineers' club. "You old, •worthless, ornery, no-good son . of a lizard 1 I've never been so glad to see • man that didn't owe me money. I've been combing the whole- civilized world for you, for a month, at least Where the devil have you been?" John Stuart Webster beamed hap pily upon his friend. "Well, Neddy, you old gtocking-knltter," he replied quizzically, "since that Is the case, I'm not surprised at your failure to find me. You've known me long enough to have remembered to confine your seprch to tte uncivilized reaches." "Well,, you're here, at any rate and I'm happy. Now you settle down." "Hardly, Neddy. "I'm young yet, jrou know—only forty. Still a reql live man and not quite ready to degenerate into a card-playing, eat-drlnk-and-be merry, dle-of-inanltlon, slnk-to-obllvioa and go-to-h fireplace spirit 1" And hp prodded Jerome in the short ribs with a tentative thumb tbat caused the old man to wince. He permitted bis rlend to drag him downstairs to I tbe deserted lounge, where Jerome paused In the middle of the room and renewed Ms query: ,N --"Where have you been, I ask?" "Out in Deatn valley, California, try ing to pry loose a fortune." I "Did you pry it?" John Stuart Webster arched his eye brows In mock repfoach. "And you can see my new suit, Neddy, my six teen-dollar, made-to-order shoes and my horny hoofs'encased in silken hose —and ask that question? , Freshly shaved and Ironed and almost afraid to sit down and get wrinkles In my . trousers I Smell that!" He blew a Cloud of cigar smdke into Jerome's amillng face. The latter sniffed. "It smells expensive," he replied. "Yes, and you can bet it tastes ex pensive, too," Webster answered, banding his cigar-case to his friend. Jerome bit the end of his cigar and •pat derisively. "How much have you made?" he demanded bluntly. "It's none of your business, but Til toll you because I love you, Neddy. I've made one hundred thousand dollars." "Chicken-feed," Jerome retorted. - *Vohnny, I've been combing the'mln eisl belt of North America tor you for a month." "Why this sudden belated interest In me?" ' . "I have a fine Job for you, John —" "Klng'cf X," Webster Interrupted, and showed both hands with the fin gers crossed. "No plotting against my peace and comfort, Neddy. Haven't I told you I'm all dressed up for the first time In three yean, that I have money In my pocket and more in bank? Man, I'm going to tread the primrose path for a year before I get back into the harness again." Jerome waved a deprecatory hand, figuratively brushing aside such feeble and inconsequential argument "Are you foot-loose?" he ,demanded. "I'm not I'm bound In golden chains—'" "Married, Mi? Great Scott I might have gueased it So you're on your honeymoon, eh?" "No such luck, you rlchy-drlnking iconoclast If you had ever gotten far enough from this club daring tbe past fifteen years to get a breath of real fresh air, you'd understand why ■ I want to enjoy civilization for a week or two before I go back to a mine su perintendent's cabin on some bleak hill. No, slr-ee. Old Jeremiah Q. Work and I have had a falling" out Dad burn your picture, Neddy, I want some class! I've been listening to. a dago shift-boss playing the accord eon for three years—and he could only play three tunes. Now I want Sousa's band, rve been bathing In tepid, dirty water In a redwood sluice-box, and new I desire a steam room and a nee; * die ahow'er and an osteopath. I've been bosalng Greasers and Italians and was forced to learn their language to get results, and now I wtflfct to speak my mother tongue to my old friends. By thunder I'm gnlng to have a new deal all around." - yVery well. Jack. Dent aadto year? . fen —ii*b ttMy days to sicken of it all—and then I shall come and claim "my property." "Neddy, Til not work for you. I'm mad. I won't play." "You're It I Just tagged you." "*I require a rest—but unfold your proposition, Neddy. I was born a poor, _ weak vessel consumed with a curiosity that was ever my undoing. I can only protest that this Is no way to treat a friend." "Nonsense I My own brother wants this Job, and I have refused to give It to him. Business is business—and I've saved it for you." Jerome leaned forward and laid his finger' confidentially on Webster's knee; whereat the light-hearted wan derer carefully lifted the finger, brushed an Imaginary speck of dirt from It, and set It down again. "Be serious, you lngrate," Jerome pro tested. "Listen! I've been working for two years on a consolidation up near Telldrlde, and I've Just put It across. Jack, It's the biggest thing In the country. Colorado Consolidated Mines' Company, Limited. English capital, Jack, Pay 'em 6 per cent, and they'll call you blessed. There's twenty-five thousand a year In It with a house and a good cook and an au tomobile and a chauffeur, and you can come to town whenever you please, provided you don't neglect the com pany's Interests—and I know you're not that kind of an engineer." , "Do I have to put some mdney Into It Neddy r* "Ndt necessarily, although I should advise it I can let you in on the ground floor for that hundred thou sand of yours, guarantee you a hand some profit and in all probability a big cleanup." , . "L feel myself slipping, Neddy. Nev ertheless, the tall goes with the hide. I'm not -In the habit of asking my friends to guarantee my Investments, and If you say It's right I*ll spread what I have left of the hundred thou sand when I report; for duty." "It's been a tremendous Job get ting this consolidation over, Jack. When —" "In pity's name I Spare roe. rve heard all I want to hear about your confounded consolidation. News t News! Give me nefal I have to beg for a drink— Mose, you black sinner, how dare you appear before me without bringing a drink 1" Mose, the aged colored porter of the Engineers' club, flashed a row of Ivories and respectfully returned the democratic greeting. "Letter for you, suh. The secre tary told me to give It to you, Mistah Webster." "Thank you, Mose. Speak up, Ned dy, and tell me something. Ever hear anything of Billy Geary 7" 1 He was tearing the edge of the en velope the while he gazed at Jerome, who was rubbing his fat hands to gether after the fashion of elderly men who are well pleased with themselves. "You have a chance to become one of the greatest and richest mining en gineers In the world. Jack," he an swered, "now that you've cut loose from that young crook Geary. I don't know what's become of him, and neither does anybody else. For that matter, nobody carei" "I do—and you can take tbe brief end of thaf bet for your last white chip. Don't let me hear you or any body else say anything against Billy Geary. That boy goes for my money, every turn In the box. Don't make any mistakes about that oldtlmer." Webster's face suddenly was seii «os; the bantering intonation in 'his voice was gone, and a new, slightly strident note had crept Into It »But Jerome wared his hand soothingly. "All right eld Johnny Pepper-box, have It your own way. I'm a little mystified. Tbe last 1 knew of you two, you had testified against him In the high-grade trials at Cripple Creek, and he had pulled out under a cloud, even after his ac quittal." "Give a dog a bad name, and It will stick to him," Webster retorted. "Of course I testified against him. As en gineer for the Mine Owners' associa tion, I had to. The high-grade ore was found In his assay office, and the circumstantial evidence was complete, and I admit Billy was acquitted merely because I and others could not swear positively that the ore came from any certain mine. It was the same old story, Neddy. You can be morally certain that high-grade ore has been stolen from your %loe, but unless you catch thfe ore thief in tbe act how can you prove It? I suppose you read the newspaper reports and believed then, Just as everybody else I "Well, forget it. Jack. It's all over long ago, and forgotten." "It wasn't all over so |ong ago as yon seem to think. I suppose you knew the Holman gang was after ward sent to the' penitentiary for those same high-grade operations? Billy Geary's acquittal didn't end my interest in the cqge —not by a Jugful! I fought the case against the friends of the Holman crew among the mine owners themselves; and it cost me my good Job, my prestige, as a mining en gineer, and thirty thousand dollars of money 'that I'd slaved to .get together. Of course you never knew this, Neddy, and for that matter, neither does Geary. I wish he did. We were good friends once. I certainly was mighty fond of that boy." -He drew the letter from the en-' velope and slowly opened It "And you never heard what became of Geary?" "Not a word. I was too busy won dering what was to become of me. I couldn't get a Job anywhere In Colo rado, and I moved to Nevada. Made a million In Goldfield, dropped It In the panic of 1907, and had to start again—" "What .have you been doing lately?" "Borax. Staked a group of claims down in Death valley. Bully ground, Neddy, and I was busted when I lo cated them. Had to borrow money to pay the filing fees and Incorporation, and did my own assessmebt work. Look!" Webster held up his hands, still somewhat grimy and calloused. "The Borax trust knew I was busted, but th£y never could quite get over the fear that I'd dig up some backing and give them a run—so they bought me out" "Somebody told me Geary had gone «to Rhodesia," Jerome continued mus ingly, "or maybe It was Capetown. I know he was seen somewhere In South Africa." ' "He left the Creek Immediately after the conclusion of his trial. Poor boy! That dirty business destroyed the lad and made a tramp of him, I guess. r>tell you, Neddy, no two men ever lived who came nearer to loving each other than Billy Geary and his old Jack-pardner. We bucked the marts of men and went to sleep to gether hungry matfy a time during our five-year partnership. Why, Bill was like my own boy. Jerome, I curse the day I took that bOy out from un derground and put him. In the auar office to learn the business. How could I know that the Holman gang had cached the stuff In bis shack?" "Well, It's. too bad," Jerome an swered dully. He was quite willing that the subject of conversation should be changed. "I'm glad to get the right dope on the boy, anyhow. Have an other drink?" "Not until I read this letter. Now, who the dickens knew I was beaded for Denver and the Engineers' club? I didn't tell a soul, and I only ar rived this morning." He turned to the last page to ascer- 1 tain the Identity of hla correspondent and his facial expression ran the gaWut from surprise to a Joy that was good to see. John Stuart Webster read the letter deliberately, after which he sat In si lent contemplation of the design of the carpet for fully a minute before reach ing for the bell. A servant responded Immediately. "Bring me the time-tables of all roads leading to New Orleans," he ordered, " —also a cable blank." Webster had reread the letter be fore the servant returned with the time-tables. "August you go out to tbe desk, like a good fellow, and ask the secre tary to arrange for a compartment for me to New Orleans on the Gulf States limited, leaving at 10 o'clock tomor row night" He handed the servant his card. . "Now wait a, minute until I write something." He seized the cable blank, helped himself, unin vited, to Neddy Jerome's fountain pen, and wrote: "William H. Geary, Calle de Concordia No. 18, Buenaventura, Sobrante, A A. "Salute, yon young Jackass! Just received your letter. Cabling thou sand for emergency roll first thing to morrow. Will order machinery. Leav ing for New Orleans tomorrow night to arrive Buenaventura first steamer. Your letter caught me with a hundred thousand. We cut It two ways and take our chances. Keep a light In tbe window for your old "JACK-PARDNER." "That's a windy cablegram," Neddy Jerome remarked as the servant bore ft away. "Why all this garrulity? A cablegram anywhere generaUv costs at least a dollar a word." " That's my delight of a shiny night In the season of the year,'" quoted John Stuart Webster; "snd why tbe devil economize when the boy needs cheering up?" "What boyr "Billy Geary." "Where Is her "Central America." Neddy Jerome was happy. He was In an expansive mood, for he had, with tbe assistance of s Madly fats, rounded up the one engineer hi all tbe ■is - :• THE at&MANOE GKAH*M,I 0. ■i I 77i ? i v in i i i ,i r i -I, i.

"Neddy," said John Stuart Webster, "by my halldom, I love thee. You're a thoughtful, kindly Ad stick-in-the mud-—" ' "No If a nor but's. I'm your boss," Jerome interrupted, • and waddled away to telephone the head waiter at his favorite restaurant to reserve a table for two. Mr. Webster sighed. Be disliked exceedingly to disappoint old Neddy, but— He shrank from seeming to think overwell of himself by declin ing a twenty-flve-thousand-dollar-a year job with the biggest mining com pany in Colorado, but — "Rotten luck," he soliloquized. "It runs that way lor a while, and then It changes, and gets worse!" When Jerome returned to his seat, the serious look In Webster's hitherto laughing eyes challenged his immedi ate attention. "Neddy," said John Stuart Webster gently, "do you remember my cross ing my fingers and saying 'King's X' when you came at me with that propo sition of yours? It Just breaks my heart to have to decline It, but the fact of the matter Is, I think you'd better give that Job to your brother, after all. At juiy rate, I'm not going to take It" "Why*" the amazed Jerome de manded. "Johnny, you're crazy in the head. Of course you'll take It" For answer Webster handed bis friend the letter he had just received. "Read that old horse, and see if you can't work up a circulation," he sug gested. Jerome adjusted his spectacles and read: "Calle de Concordia 19, Buenaventutp, "Sobrante, C. A. "Dear John: I would address yon as 'dear friend John,' did I but pos sess sufficient courage. In my heart of heart* you are still that but after three years of silence, due to my stu pidity and hardness of heart It is, per haps, better to make haste flowly. "To begin, I should like to be for given, on the broad general grounds that I am most almighty sorry for what I went and done I Am I forgiv en? I seem to sefe your friendly old face and hear you answer 'Aye,' and with this load off chest at last I believe I feel better already. "Jack, you poor,'deluded old piece of whlrt meat do you think for a mo ment that I held against you your testimony for the operators In Cripple Creek? I thought you believed the charges and that you testified In a , firm belief that I was the guilty man, as all of the circumstantial evidence seemed to Indicate. I thought this for three long, meagre years, old friend, and I'm sorry. After that I suppose there Isn't any need for me to say more, except that you are an old fool for not saying yon were going to spend your money and your time and reputation trying to put my halo back on straight I I doubt If I was worth It, and you knew that; but let It pass, for we have other fish to fry. "The nubbin of the matter Is this: There is only one good gold mine left In this weary world —and I have It It's the sweetest wildcat I ever struck, and we stand the finest show In the world of starving to death If we tackle it without sufficient capital to go through. It will take at least thirty thousand dollars, and we ought to have double that to play safe.

"This Is a pretty fair country, Jack —if you survive long enough to get used to It At first you think lfs Par adise; then you grow to bate It and know It for bell with the lid off; and finally all your early love for It re turns and you become what I am now —a tropical tramp I There Is only one social stratum lower than mine, and thafs the tropical beachcomber.

Ptease let me hear from you. "Affectionately, "BILLY." Jerome finished reading this remark able communication; then with in finite amusement he regarded John Stuart Webster over the top* of his glasses as one who examines a new and Interesting species of bug. "So Billy loves that dear Sobrante, eh?" he said with abysmal sarcasm. "Jack Webster, listen to a sane mfi and be guided accordingly. I was la this same little Buenaventura once.

Be reasonable. What did you wire that confounded boy?" "That I was coming." "Cable him you've changed yo«r mind.

I'll talk to Billy when I arrive In Buenaventura, and If the prospect doesn't look good to me. ni argue him out of it and we'll come home. Let me go., I might come back. But I must go. I want to see Billy." "You Just said a minute ago you'd turned the forty-year post" Jerome warned him. "And you're now going to lose a year or two more In which you'might better be engaged laying up a foundation of Independence iot your old age. For Heaven's sake, man, don't be a fool." "Oh, but I will be a fool," John Stu art Webster answered; possibly, by this time, the reader has begun te understand the potency of his middle name—the Scotch are notoriously pig headed, and llr. Webster had Ju*t enough oatmeal In his blood to have come by that center fire name honest ly. "And you, you poor old horse, you could not possibly understand why, if you lived to be a million years old." He got up from his chair to the full height of his six-feet-one, and stretched 190 pounds of bone and mus cle. "And so I shell go to Sobrante and lose all of this all-Important money, shall If he Jeered.- "Then by all tha gods of the Open Country, I hope I may. Dad bum you, Neddy, I'm not a Methuselah.
