that there was a limit to his period .
of action, for he seemed obsessed Dy
an ever growing passion to accomplish '
some end within a given time and had
no thought for anything beyond the
engrossing issue into which be had
plunged. She was dumfonnded by his
sudden transformation and delighted
at first, but later, when she saw that
he regarded her only as a means to
an enA, his cool assumption of leader
ship piqued her and she felt hurt.
Constantlne had been sent for Bait
with instructions to keep on until hd
found the fisherman even if the quest
carried Mm over the range. During
the days of impatient waiting they oc
cupied their time largely in reconnoi
tering the nearest cannery, permission
to go over, which Cherry -had secured
from the watchman, who was indebted
to her. The man was timid at first,
but Emerson won him over, then pro
ceeded to pump him dry of informa
tion, as he had done with his hostess.
Fraser looked on in bewilderment
at the change In Emerson.
"What have you done to 'Frozen
Annie?'" he asked Cherry on one oc
casion. "You must have fed him a
speed ball, for I never saw a gtfy
gear up so fast. Why, he Was the
darndest crape hanger I ever met till
you got him gingered up. He didn't
have no more spirit than a sick kit
ten!" ' .
Fraser then eyed the girl keenly.
"This is a lonely place for a woman
like you," he said, "and our mutual
friend ain't altogether unattractive,
eh?"
Cherry's cheeks flamed, but her tone
was Icy. "This Is entirely a business
matter."
"Hm-m! I ain't never heard you
touted none as a business woman,"
said the adventurer.
"Have you ever heard me" the col
or faded from the girl's face, and it
was a trifle drawn "discussed in any
way?'
"You know, Emerson makes me un
comfortable sometimes, he is so d -d
moral," Fraser replied indirectly. "He
won't stand for anything off color.
He's a real square guy, he is, the kind
you read about."
"You didn't answer my questloa,"
Insisted Cherry.
Again Fraser evaded the Issue. "Now,
if "this Marsh Is going after you In
earnest this summer why don't you let
me stick around until spring and look
out your game? I'll drop a monkey
wrench in his gear case or put a spider
in his dumpling, and it's more than
an even shot that if him and I got
to know each other right well I'd own

"Thank you; I can take care of my

Late one stormy night Constantlne
had been gone a week the two men
whom they were expecting blew in
through the blinding smother. Bait
refused rest or nourishment until he
had learned why Cherry had sent
for htm. As briefly as possible she
outlined the situation. Boyd Emerson
saw a huge, barrel chested creature
whose tremendous muscles bulged be
neath liis nondescript garments, whose
red, upstanding bristle of hair topped
a leather countenance from whl?h
gleamed a pair of the most violent eyes
Emerson had ever beheld, the domi
nant expression of which was rage.
His voice was hoarse with the echo
of drumming ratlines. He might have
lived forty, sixty years, but every year
had been given to the sea; its foaming
violence was in his blood.

sank into his mind the signs of an un-

"Yes." 4

threat for his bloodshot eyes were
lit with bitter hatred. Turning to the
girl, he said:
"Now give me something to eat I've
been living on dogfish till my belly
Is full of bones."
Long after Cherry had gone to bed
she heard the murmur of their voices.5
"It's all arranged," they advised her
at the breakfast table. "We leave to
morrow." , "Tomorrow?" she echoed blankly.
"We start in the morning. We have
no time to waste."
. She felt a sudden dread at her heart
What if they failed and did not re
turn? What if some untoward peril
should overtake them on the outward
trip? It was a hazardous Journey, arid
George Bait was the most reckless
man on the Bering coast. Emerson's
next words added to her alarm:
"We'll catch the mail boat at Kat
mal." "Katmal!" she broke In sharply.
"You said you were going by the Iliam
na route." She turned on Bait angri
ly. "You know better than to suggest
such a thing."
"I didn't suggest it," said,BalL "It's
Mr. Emerson's own idea; he Insists."
"I shall be dreadfully worried until
I know you are safely over," said the
girl, a new note of wistful tenderness

"Do you know," she began hesitat
ingly, "I've been thinking that per
haps you'd better not take up this
enterprise after all."
"Why not?" he asked, with an In
credulous stare. ' "I thought you were
enthusiastic on the subject."
"I am. I believe in the proposition
thoroughly," Cherry limped on, "but
well, I was entirely selfish in getting
you started, for it possibly means my
own salvation, but"
"It's " my last chance also," Boyd
broke In.
"A few days ago you were a stranger;
now you are a friend," she said stead
ily. "One's likes and dislikes grow
rapidly when they aye not choked by
convention. I like you too well to see
you do this. You are too good a man
to become the prey of those people.
Remember George Bait."
"Bait hasn't started yet. For the
first time he is a real menace to Willis
Marsh."
"Won't you take my advice and re
consider?" urged the girl.

the town burned. I awoke in a mid

voice of the crowd sounded like Jeers.

felt the magnetic propinquity of sex.
For her part, she lay awake far into
the morning hours, now . blissfully
floating on the current of half formed
desires, now vaguely . fearing some
dread that clutched her.
The goodbys were brief and com
monplace. There was time for noth
ing more, for the dogs were straining
to be off and the December air bit
fiercely. But Cherry called Emerson
aside and in a rather tremulous voice
begged him again to consider well this
enterprise before finally committing
himself to it "If this were any other
country. If there were any law up here
or any certainty of getting a square
deal I'd never say a word; I d urge
you to go the limit But"

the forlorn droop of her lips stayed
him. Without thought of conse
quences and prompted largely by his
leaping spirits, he stooped and, before
"she- could divine hi3 purpose, kissed
her. , '
"Goodby," he laughed, with dancing
eyes. "That's my answer!" And the
next second he was at the sled. The
dogs leaped at his shout, and the caval

But the girl stood without sound or
gesture, bareheaded under the "wintry

eyes which did not fade until the men

The innocent tenderness of her

She was far beyond any help when
he arrived, having taken strychnine
several hours before he reached her.
The cause of the sad event seems to
have ben disappointment ia an trffiir
of the heart. She had left her home
on a runaway marriage trip to South
Carolina with a young man to whom
she was engaged, and had got as far
as Red Banks when she was over
taken by her father, who seem3 to
have opposed the match, ad brought
her back home. A short time later
she was discovered in the throes of
death from a dose of strychnine which
she had administered to herself. Her
father had the strychnine for the pur
pose of poisoning rats and trouble
some dogs, it is said, and had it lock
ed op, but the girl succeeded in get
ting to it in some way with the very
fatal result stated above.
The young girl is said to have been
a tine looking girl in perfect health,
and the only cause ascribed for her
rash act is that stated above.
