Intercourse with his fellow men confined to this yearly visit to a set tlement, and even that wus of the briefest nature, confined always to the business in hand. Even when busy in the town he pitched a small tent in the open on the outskirts and dwelt apart. No men there in those days pried into the business of other men She Screamed Aloud, was neither If he aroused tran speculation it soon He vanished into the mountains and as he eame no more to that pl , he was soon forgotten. Withdrawing from his fellow men and avoiding their society, this man was never so satisfied as when alone closely Curiogity tale DOr necessary sient Interesi died away. tuo Or rose with every step he made away more difficult mountain trails, For several days he journeyed through the mountains, choosing the wildest and most inaccessible parts for his going. Amid the canons and peaks he threaded his way with un 'erring rcturacy, ascending higher and higher until at last he reached the mountain aerie, the lonely hermitage, where he made his home. 'There he reveled in his isolation. What had been punishment, expiation, had at last become pleasure. Mvilization was bursting through the hills in every direction, railways were being pushed hither and thither, the precious metals were being dis covered at various places and after them came hoards of men and with them--God save the mark---women; but his section of the country had hitherto been unvisited even by hunt- ers, explorers, miners or pleasure seekers. He was glad, as he had grown to love the spot where he had made his home, and he had no wish to be forced, like little Joe, to move on. Once a man who loved the strife, noble or. ignoble, of the madding crowd, he had grown accustomed to and summer alike he roamed the mountain , delving into every forest, exploring every hidden canyon, sur- mounting every inaccessible peak; no storm, no snow, no condition of wind or weather daunted him -or stopped him. He had no human companion- ship by which to try his mettle, but nevertheless over the world of the material which lay about him he was a master as he was a man, He found some occupation, too, in the following of old Adam's inherit- ance; during the pleasant months of summer he made such garden as he could. liis profession of mining en- gineer gave him other. employment. Round about him lay treasures ines- timable, precious metals abounded in the liills. He had located them, tested, analyzed, estimated the wealth that was his for the taking--it was as val- golden guineas were to Selkirk on his island. Yet the knowledge that it was there gave him an energizing sense of potential power, unconsciously enorm- ously flattering to his self-esteem. Sometimes he wandered to the ex- treme verge of the range and on clear days saw far bencath him the smoke of great cities of the plains. He could be master among men as he was a master among mountains, if he chose. On such occasions he laughed cynically, scormfully, yet rarely did he ever give way to such emotions. A great and terrible sorrow was upon him; cherishing a great passion he had withdrawn himself from the common lot to dwell upon it. From 8 pervertell sense of expilation, in & madness of grief, horror and despair, he had made himself a prisoner to his ideas in the desert of the mountains. Back to his cabin he would hasten, and there surrounded by his living meniories--deathless, yet of the dead! --he would recreate the past until de- jection drove him abroad om the hills to meet God if not man--or woman. Night-day, sunshineshadow, heat-cold, storm-calm; these were his life. Having disburdened his faithful ani mals of their packs and having seen them safely bestowed for the win , den change he had been constant to a | years. The world for him had stopped ' years back--the | yonder where people were mated he | care in the silent hills. His heart and spirit | from the main. traveled roads or the | silence, habituated to solitude. Winter | ueless to him as the doubloons and | across the mountains from which he drew such comfort because he fancied the absence of man con- { duced to the nearness of God. It was a delusion as old nearly as the Chris- tian religion. Many had made them- | selves hermits in the past in remorse | for sin and for love toward God; this man had buried himself in the wilder ness in part for the first of these causes, in other part for the love of wom:n. In the days of swift and sud- remembrance, and abiding in his de | termination for five swift moving its progress in one brief moment five rest was silence. What had happened since then out did not know and he did not greatly In his visits to the settlements he asked no questions, he bought no pa- pers, he manifested no interest in the world; some things in him had died in one fell moment, and there had been, as yet, no resurrection. Yet life, hope, and ambition do not die, they are indeed eternal. Resurgam! Life with its tremendous activities, its awful anxieties, its wearing strains, its rare triumphs, its "opportunities for achievement, for service; hope with its illuminations, its encourage- ments, its expectations, ambition with its stimulus, its force, its power; and greatest of all, love, itself alone-- {all three were latent in him. In touch | with a' woman these had gone. Some- thing as powerful and as human must bring them back. It was against nature that a man dowered as he should so live to him- self alone. Some voice should cry in bis soul in its cerements of futile re- ! morse, vain expiations and benumbing | recollection; some day he should burst these grave clothes self-wound {about him and be ofice more a man { and a master among men, rather than | the hermit and the recluse of the soli | tudes. I He did not allow these thoughts to | come into hig life; indeed, it is quite { likely that he scarcely realized them | at all yet; such possibilities did not | present themselves to him. Perhaps the man was a little mad that morn- | ing, maybe he trembled on the verge of break---upward, downward, I | | know not so it be away---unconscious- Fly as he strode along the range that ! morning. | He had been walking for some | hours, and as he grew thirsty it oc- | ! curred to him to descend to the level | | of the brook which he lieard below him | and of which he sometimes caught a flashing glimpse through the trees. | He scrambled down the rocks and found himself in a thick grove of | | pine. Making his way slowly and with great difficulty through the tangle of fallen timber which lay in every di- rection, the sound of a human voice, the last thing on earth to be expected | in that wilderness, smote upon the fearful hollow of his ear. | Any volce or any word then and' there would have surprised him, but! there was & note of awful terror in this voice, a sound of frightened ap- peal. The desperation in the cry left | him mo moment for thought, the de-! ponand was for action, The cry was, not addressed to him, apparently, but to God, yet it was he who answered-- sent doubtless by that Overlooking Power who "works in such mystarious ways His wonder to perform? He leaped over the intervening trees to the edge of the forest where | the rapid waters ran. To. the right of him rose & huge rock, or cliff, in front of him the canon bent sharply | to the morth, and benedth him a few rode away » speck of white gleamed above the water of a deép £4 stil) pool that he knew.

He was a silent man by long babit, ac customed to saying nothing, he sald nothing now. But instantly aiming from the hip with a wondrous skill and a perfect mastery of the weapon, and indeed it was & short range for so huge a target, he pumped bullet after bullet from his Winchester into the evil monarch of the mountains. { The frst shot did for him, but mak- ing assurance double and treble sure, He Caught a Glimpse of Her White, Desperate Face. he fired again and again, Satisfled at last thal the bear was dead, 4nd ob- serving that he had fallen upon the clothes of the bather, he turned, de scended the stream for a few yards until he came to a place where it was easily fordable, stepped through fit without a glance toward the woman shivering in the water, whose sensa tion so far as a mere man could, he thoroughly understood and appreciat ed, and whose modesty he fain would having not forgotten to be a gentleman in five years of his own go- ciety----high test of quality, that, He climbed out upon the bank, up- rooted a small tree, rolled the bear clear of the heap of woman's clothing and¢marched straight ahead of him up the canon and around the bénd. Thereafter, being a man, he did not faint or fall, but completely unnerved he leaned against the canon wall, dropped his gun at his feet and stood there trembling mightily, sweat be- dewing his forehead, and the sweat had not come from his exertions. In one moment the whola even tenor of his lite was changed. The one glimpse he had got of those white shoulders, that pallid face, that golden head raised from the water, had swept him back five years. He had seen once more in the solitude a woman. Other women he had seen at a dis- tance and avolded in his venrty vigits to the settlements. Of course, these had passed him by remotely, but here he was brought in touch intimately with humanity. He who had taken life had saved it. A woman had sent him forth; was a woman to call him back? He cursed himself for his weakness. He shut his eyes and summoned other memories. How long he stood there he could not have told. He was fight- ing a battle and it seemed to him at last that he triumphed. Presently the consciousness came to him that per haps he had no right to stand there idle; it may be that the woman need- perhaps she had fainted in the water; perhaps--.

He must ga to her; . yet stay, she might not yet .be clothed, in which event--, But no, she must be dressed, or dead, by this spare ; YYme, and im either case he. would have a duty to discharge. It devolved upon him to make sure of her saféty; "he was in' a certain sense responsible for it, until she got back to her friends, wherever they might be; but he persuaded himself that otherwise he did not want to see her again, that he did not wish to know anything about her future; that he did not care whether ft was well or fll with her; and it was only stern obligation which drove him toward her--oh, fond and foolish man! He compromised with himself .at last by. climbing the ridge that had, shut off a view of the pool, and look: ing down at the place so memorable ito him.
