Back In Dawson, though he remained true to his word and never touched hand to pick and shovel, be worked as hard as ever In his life. He had a thousand Irons In the flre. and they kept him busy. Heavy as were his expenses, be won more heavily. He took lays, bought half shares, shared with the men be grub staked, and made personal locations. Day and night his dogs were ready, and he owned the fastest teams; so that when a stam pede to a new discovery was on. It was Burning Daylight to the fore through the longest, coldest nights till be blazed his stakes next to Discovery. In one way or another (to say nothing of the many worthless creeks) he came Into possession of properties on the good creeks, such as Sulphur, Do minion. Excelsls, Slwash, Crlsto, Al hambra. and Doollttle. The thousands be poured out flowed back In tens of thousands. Dawson grew rapidly that winter of 1896. Money poured In on Daylight from the sale of town lots. He prompt ly Invested It where It would gather more. In fact, he played the danger ous game of pyramiding, and no more perilous pyramiding than In a placer camp could be imagined. Out be played with his eyes wide open. Corner lots In desirable locations told that winter for from ten to thirty thousand dollars. Daylight sent word out over the trails and passes for, the newcomers to bring down log-rafts, nd, as a result, the summer of 1897 aw bis saw mills working day and night, on three shifts, and still be had logs left over with which to build cabins. These cabins, land Included, old at from one to several thousand dollars. Two-story log buildings. In the business part of town, brought him from forty to fifty thousand dollars apiece. These fresh accretions of cap ital were Immediately invested In oth er ventures. He turned gold over and over, until everything that he touched eemed to. turn to gold. With the summer rush from the Out side came special correspondents lor the big newspapers and magazines, and one and all, using unlimited space, they wrote Daylight up; so that, so far as the world was concerned. Daylight loomed tile largest figure in Alaska. Of course, 'after several months, the 'wbTId became Interested In the Span ish War, and forgot all about him; but n the Klondike itself Daylight still re mained the most prominent figure. CHAPTER VI. It was held by the thousands of hero-worshipping chechaquos that Day light was a man absolutely without fear. But Bettles and Dan MacDonald and other sourdoughs shook their beads and laughed as they mentioned women. And they were right. He bad always been afraid of them from the time, himself a lad of seventeen, when Queen Anne, of Juneau, made open and ridiculous love to blm. For that matter, be never bad known women. Born In a mining-camp where they : were rare and mysterious, bavins no sisters, his mother dying while be was an Infant, he had never been In con tact with tbem. But It was left to the Virgin to give blm bis final fright She was found one morning dead in her cabin. A hot through tha bead bad done It, and she had left no message, no ex planation. Then came the talk. Some wit, voicing public opinion, called it a case of too much Daylight. She bad killed herself because of blm. Bvery- body knew this, and said so. The cor respondents wrote It up, and once more Burning Daylight. King of the Klondike, was sensationally , featured In the Sunday supplements of the United States. , The Virgin bad straightened up, so the feature-stories ran, and correctly so. Never bad she entered a Dawson City dance-hall. When she first arrived from Circle . City, she bad earned her living by ' washing clothes. Next, she bad bought -. a sewing-machine and made men's drill parkas, fur caps, and moosehlde - mittens. Then she bad gone as a clerk into the First Yukon Banc All this, and more, was known and told, though one and all were agreed that Day- - light, while tbe cause, had been the 1 Innocent cause of ber untimely end. And the' worst of It was that Day light knew It was true. Always would he remember that last night he bad seen ber. He bad thought nothing of it at the time; but. looking back, he was haunted by every little thing that bad happened.' In the light of tbe , tragic event, ha could understand everything; her quietness, that calm certitude 'a if all vexing questions of living bad been smoothed out and ' were gone, and that certain ethereal sweetness about all that she bad said ' and done that had been almost mater nal. He remembered tbe way she bad l 1 at h!ra. bow she tad laughed v a he rnrratod M?-Viy Doinn' mls- 1 1 ':,!.: U'e f.v -.'..a on 'iook- 1. ! r t 1 teen lightly joyous, while at the same time It had lacked Its old-time robustness. Not that she bad been grave or sutv dued. On the contrary, she had been so patently content, so filled with peace. She had fooled blm, fool that be was. He bad even thought that night that her feeling for blm bad passed, and be bad taken delight In tbe thought, and caught visions of tbe satisfying future friendship that would be theirs with this perturbing love out of tbe way. And then, when be stood at the door, cap in hand, and said good night. It bad struck him at tbe time as a funny and embarrassing thing, ber bending over his band and kissing It He had felt like a fool, but be shivered now when he looked back on It and felt again the touch of ber lips on bis band She was saying good-by, an eternal good-by, and he had never guessed. At that very moment and for all the moments of the evening, coolly and deliberately, as be well knew ber way, she had been resolved to die. If be had only known it! Un touched by the contagious malady himself, nevertheless be would have married ber if he had had the slight est Inkling of what she contemplated. And yet be knew, furthermore, that hers was a certain stiff-kneed pride that would not have permitted ber to accept marriage as an act of philan thropy. There bad really been no sav- Through it All Moved Daylight, ing her, after all. The love-disease bad fastened upon her, and she bad been doomed from the first to perish of It Six thousand spent tbe winter of 1897 In Dawson, work on the creeks went on apace, while beyond the pass es (t was reported that one hundred thousand more were waiting for the spring. Late one brief afternoon. Day light, on the benches between French Hill and Shookum Hill, caught a wid er vision of things. Beneath him lay the richest part of Eldorado Creek, while up and down Bonanza be could see for miles. It was a scene of a vast devastation. The bills, to their tops, bad been shorn of trees, and tbelr naked sides showed signs of gor ing and perforating that even tbe mantle of snow could not hide. Be neath him. In every direction, were the cabins of men. But not many men were visible. A blanket of imoke filled the valleys and turned tbe gray day to melancholy twilight Smoke arose from a thousand bole in tbe now, where, deep down on bed-rock. In the frozen muck and gravel, men crept and scratched and dug, and ever built more fires to break tbe grip of the frost ; - Organization was what was needed, be decided; and bis quick Imagination sketched Eldorado Creek, from mouth to source, and from 'mountain top to mountain top. In tbe bands of one ca pable management Even steam-thawing, as yet untried, but bound to come, be saw would be a makeshift What should, be done was to hydraulic tbe valley sides and benches, and then, on tbe creek bottom, to use gold-dredges. There was the very chance for another big killing. Her bad wondered Just What was precisely the reason for the Guggenhammers and the big English concerns sending in tbelr high-salaried experts. That was tbelr scheme. That was wby they had approached blm tor the sale of worked-out claims and tail ings. They were - content to let the small mine-owners gopher out what they could, for there would be mil lions In the leavings. , "' And, gating down on tbe smoky In terno of crude effort Daylight outlined the new game be would play, a game In which the Ouggenbammers and tbe rest would have to reckon wltb blm But along wltb tbe delight In tbe new conception came a weariness. He was tired of the long Arctic years, and be was curious about the Outside the great world- of which be bad beard other men talk and of which be was as Ignorant as child. There were games out there to play. It was a larger table, and there was no reason why he wltb bis millions should not sit In and take a band. 8o It was, that afternoon on Skookum Hill, that he resolved to play this last best Kloa dike band and pull for the Outside. It took time, however. He put trusted agents to work on the beels of great experts, and on the creeks where they began to buy be likewise bought Wherever they tried to corner a worked-out creek, they found blm standing in the way, owning blocks of claims or artfully scattered claims that put all their plans to naught Followed wars, truces, compromises. victories, and deieats. By 1X911. sixty thousand men were on tbe Klondike, and ' all their fortunes and affairs rocked back and forth and were af fected by tbe battles Daylight fought And more and more the taste for tbe larger game urged in Daylight's mouth. Here be was already locked In grap ples with the great Ouggenbammers, and winning, fiercely winning. Pos sibly tbe severest struggle was waged on Ophlr, the veriest of moose-pastures, whose low-grade dirt was valu a'ie only because of Its vastness. Tbe ownership of a block of seven claims In the heart of It gave Daylight bis Hell-Roaring, Burning Daylight. grip, and they could not come to terms. Tbe Ouggenbammer experts conclud ed that it was too big for blm to handle, and when they gave blm an ultimatum to that effect be accepted and bought them out Tbe plan was his own, but be sent down to the States for competent engineers to car ry It out In the Rlnkabilly water shed, eighty miles away, be built bis reservoir, and for eighty miles the huge wooden conduit carried the wa ter across country to Ophlr.

Suicides often adopt Ingenious method, but the art of the felo de seems not to have advanced material ly during th centuries. Tbe modern case of a heavily Insured broker wbo on a feigned hunting trip stood bare legged In a quagmire for boor and wilfully contracted a fatal pneumonia la matched In cleverness by one 600 year old.'. . - . v ' The following fact are well vouched for, and Indeed were never ques tioned, says the Green Bag. Sir Wil liam Hankford, a Judge of tha king bench In tbe reign of Edward HL Henry IV, Henry V and Henry Vt and at the time) of hi death chief Justice of England, waa a man of melancholy temperament He seems to have contemplated suicide the greater part of bis long life and during hla later year the Idea became a fixed purpose. The act was of peculiarly serious conse quence In those day for tbe reason that the law treated It a a capital crime. Tbe offender was busied at tbe cross roads, wltb a stake driven through bla body, and all bl goods and property were forfeited to tbe crown, to the utter ruin of his family. and conduit cost nearer four. Nor did be stop with this. Kleotrlo power plants were Installed, and bis work ings were lighted as well as run by electricity. Other sourdough, who had struck It rich In excess of all their dreams, shook tbelr beads gloom- U, warned blm tbat be would go broke, and declined to invest In so ex travagant a venture. But Daylight smiled, and sold out the remainder of his town-site holdings. He sold at the right time, at the height of tbe placer boom. When be prophesied to his old cronies. In tbe Mooaeborn Baioon. tbat within five years town lots In Dawson could not be given away, wbile the cabins would be chopped up for fire wood, he was laughed at roundly, and assured that tbe motber-lode would be found ere that time. But be went ahead, when bis need for lumber was finished, selling out bis sawmills as well. Likewise, be began to get rid of bis scattered holdings on tbe van ous creeks, and without thanks to any one be finished bis conduit built bis dredges, Imported bis machinery, and made tbe gold of Ophlr Immediately accessible. And tie, wbo five years before bad crossed over tbe divide from Indian River and threaded the silent wilderness, his dogs packing In dian fashion, himself living Indian fashion on straight moose meat, now heard tbe hoarse whistles calling bis hundreds of laborers to work, and watcbed them toll under the white glare of the arc-lamps. But having done the thing, be was ready to depart And when be let the word go out the Guggenhammers vied with tbe English concerns and with a new French company In bid ding for Ophlr and all Its plant Tbe Ouggenhammers bid highest and tbe price they paid netted Daylight a clean million. It was current rumor tbat be was wortb anywhere from twenty to thirty millions Dut be alone knew Just bow be stood, and tbat wltb bis last claim sold and tbe table swept clean of his winnings, be had ridden his hunch to tbe tune of Just a trine over eleven millions. His departure was a thing that passed Into the history of tbe Tukon along with bis other deeds. All the Tukon was his guest Dawson tbe seat of tbe festivity. On that one last night no man's dust save bis own was good Drinks were not to be pur chased. Every saloon ran open, with extra relays of exhausted bartenders, and the drinks were given away. A man who refused this hospitality, and persisted In paying, found a dozen fights on his bands. Tbe veriest chechaquos rose up to defend tbe name of Daylight from such Insult And through It all, on moccaslned feet moved Daylight hell-roaring Burning Daylight, overspllllng with good na ture and camaraderie, bowling bis be wolf bowl and claiming the night a bis, bending men's arms down on tbe bar, performing feat of strength, his bronzed face flushed with drink, his black eyes flashing, clad In overalls and blanket coat, bis ear-flaps dang ling and bis gauntleted mittens swing ing from the cord across tbe should ers. But this time It was neither an ante nor a stake that be threw away, but mere marker in tbe game tbat he who held so many marker would not miss. (TO BE CONTINUED.) AS IT SOMETIMES HAPPENS.

Then be gavh tbem a sudden, vio lent wrench. y ' Bu they didn't break apart It Is saddening to have to spoil story In bis manner, but sometimes. In tbe Interests of historical accuracy. It ha to be dene. Hankford made good use of bl wit and succeeded in accomplishing bl purpose without incurring either unpleasant penalty. He gave open Instructions to his gamekeeper, who had been troubled wltb poachers in tbe deer preserve, to challenge all trespasser in the future and to shoot to kill If they! would not stand and glv an account . r One dark night he purposely crossed the keeper' path, and upon challenge made motlops of resistance and escape.

A remarkable cause was assigned for the death of Abraham Robinson at the inquest which was held at -East Ham. Robinson was a collector employed by the Qaa Light ft Coke company, his duty being to visit about a hundred bouse a day and collect the copper from the penny-ln-the-slot gas meter. Dr. Feeley, who attended him, said tbat he died from chronic metallic poison ing. Many of the coins in the meters were covered with 'verdigris and bis fingers were unusually green at the end of the day. He had a habit of curling his long mustache with his lin ger and this assisted In tbe absorp tion of tbe poison. "There are 400 self-supporting news papers, dally and weekly, owned and published by negroes In tbe United States; S.000 physicians have been graduated from negro and white schools and are now practicing among their people; 2,000 lawyers have been admitted to the bar In the United States courts of Justice and 380 au thors are found among our race.
