'•v",+ f --12-- "Well, Son, now you can hurry back and begin cutting Into a fortune. If that vein's only four Inches wide, you've got plenty to keep you for the rest of your life. Run along." Anrl FairchUd "ran." Whistling and happy, he turned out of the office of the Sampler and Into 4the street, his coat open, his big cap high on his bead, regardless of the sweep of the cold wind and the fine snow that it carried on Its Icy breath. The waiting of months was over, and FairchUd at last was beginning to see his dreams come true. So this was the reason that ,Rodalne had acknowledged" the value of , the mine that day In court! This was the reason for the mysterious offer of fifty thousand dollars and for the later one of nearly a quarter of a J million! Kodaine had known; Rodalne had information, and Rodaine had been willing to pay to gain possession of what now appeared to be a bonanza. But Rodaine had failed. And FairchUd had won! Wofa! But suddenly he realised that there was a blankuess about it alL He had won money, it Is true But all the money in the world could not free him from the taint that had been left upon him by a coroner's Investigation, from the hint that still remained in the recommendation of the grand Jury that tlie murder of Sissle Larsen be looked Into further. Nor could it remove the stigma of the four charges against Hurry, which soon were to come to trial, and without a bit of evidence to combat them. Kiches could do much--but they could pot aid in that particular, and somewhat sobered by the knowledge. Fairchild turned from the main road and on np through the high-piled snow to the mouth of the Blue Poppy mine. A faint acrid odor struck his nostrils as he started to descend the shaft, the "perfume" of exploded dynamite, and it sent anew Into Fairchild's heart the excitement and intensity of the strike. Evidently Harry had shot the deep hole, and now, there ta the chamber, was examining the result, which must, by this time, give •one idea of the extent of the ore and the width of the vein. A moment more and he had reached the bottom, to leap frota the carrier, light his carbide lamp which hung where he had left it ob the timbers, and start forward. The odor grew heavier. Fairchild h^W his light before him and looked far ^ ahead. wondering why he could Hot see the gleam from Harry's lamp. He shouted. There was no answer, and he went on. Fifty feet I Seventy-five feet! Then he stopped short with a gasp. Twisted and torn before him were the timbers of the tunnel, while muck and refuse lay everywhere, . A cave-in--another cave-in--at almost the exact spot ha* ""•"rrrrof! "rmra be- HB.Vau Nice dead. Greater became the hole in the cave-in; soon it was large enough to admit his body. Seizing his carbide lamp, FairchUd made for the opening and crawled through, hurrying onward toward the chamber where the stope began, calling Harry's name at every step, in vain. The place was empty, except for the pile of stone and refuse which had been torn away by dynamite explosions in the hanging' wall, when? Harry evidently had shot away the remaining refuse in a last effort to see what lay in' that direction -- stones and muck which told nothing. On the other side*- Fairchild stared blankly. The hole that he had made into-the foot wall had %een filled with dynamite and tamped, as though ready for shooting. But the charge had not been exploded. Instead--on the ground lay the rdmainder of the tamping paper and a short foot and a half of fuse, with Its fulminate of mercury cap attached, where it had been pulled from Its berth by some great force and hastily stamped out. And Harry-- : *Jj'„ Harry was gone! . CHAPTER XVI A feS*. as Cave-in! tore, shotting off the chamber from communication with the shaft, tearing and rending the new timbers which had been placed there and imprisoning Harry behind them! Fairchild shouted again and again, oftly gaining for his answer the ghostlike echoes of his own voice as they traveled to the shaft and were thrown back again. He tore off his coat and cap, and attacked the timbers like the fear-maddened man he was. dragging them by superhuman force out of the way and clearing a path to the refuse. Hours passed, while the sweat poared from his' forehead and his muscles seemed to tear themselves loose from their fastenings faith the exertion that was placed upon then Foot after foot, tjie muck was torn away, as Fairchild, with pick and •hovel, forced a tunnel through the great mass of rocky debris which choked the drift. Onward---onward at last to make a small opening In the barricade, and to le:in close to it that he might shout again. But still there was no answer. .Feverish now, Fairchild Worked . *Jth all the reserve Rtrengtbthat Was fc him. Behind that broken mass, IPwjfFflS thoHgh slfhdes of tto#fmst had come to life again, to repeat in the Twentieth century a happening of the Nineteenth. There was only one difference--no form of a dead man, now lay against the foot wall, t® rest ther? more than a score of years until it should come to light, a pile of bones in time-shreddefl clothing. And as he thought «f it. Fairchild remembered that the earthly remains of "Sissie" Larsen hnd lain within almost a few feet of the spot where he.had drilled the prospect hole Into the(/foot wall, there to discover the ore that promised bonanza. Bat this time there was nothing and no due to the mystery of Harry's disappearance. Fairchild suddenly strengthened with an Idea. Perhaps, after all, he had been an the other side of the cave-In and had hurried on out of the mine. But in that event, would be not have waited for his return, to tell him of the accident? However, It was a chance, and Fairchild took it. Once more he crawled through the hole that he had mode in the cavein and sought the outward world. Then he harried down Kentucky gulch and to the Sampler. But Harry had not been there. He went through town, asking questions, striving his best to shield his anxiety, cloaking his queries under the cover of cursory remarks. Harry had not been se*n. At last, with the coming of night, he turned toward the boarding house, and on his arrival, Mother Howard, sighting his white face, hurried to him. "Have you seen Harry?" he asked. "No--he hasn't been here." It was the last chance. Clutching fear at his heart, he told Mother Howard of the happenings at the mine, quickly, as plainly as possible. Then once more he went forth, to retrace his steps to the Blue Poppy, to buck the wind and the fine snow and the high, piled drifts, and to go below. But the surroundings were the same: still the cave-in. with its small hole where he had torn through jt, still the ragged hanging wall where Harry had fired the last shots of dynamite in his Investigations, still the trampled bit of fuse with its cap attached. Nothing more. Back ;nto the blapk night, with the winds whistling through the pines. Back to wandering about through the hills, hurrying forward at the sight of every faint, dark object against the snow. In the hope that Harr^, crippled hy the cave-In, might have some way gotten out of the shaft, i'-ut they were only boalders or logs • >r stumps of tr3e,. At midnight. Fairchild turned once more toward town and to the boarding house. But Harry had not appeared. Ttyere was only one thing left to do.' This time, when FairchUd left Mother Howard's, his steps did not lead him toward Kentucky gulch. Instead he kept straight on up the street, past the little line of store buildings and to the courthouse, where he sought out the sole remaining light In the bleak, black building--Sheriff Bard well s office. That personage wns nodding in his chair, but removed his feet from the desk arid turned drowsily as Fairchild entered. "Well?" he questioned, "what's op?" "My partner has disappeared. I want to report to you--and see If I can get some help." * "Disappeared? Who?" "Harry Harklns. He's, a big Cornlshtnan, with a large mustache, .very red face, about sixty years old,' I should Judge--" "Walt a minute," Bardweil's eyes narrowed. "Ain't he the fellow I arrested in the Blue Poppy mine the night of he Old Times dancer* "Yes." "And you say he's disappeared? When does his trial come up?" "A week from tomorrow." "And he's disappeared." A Slow smile tame over the other man's lips. "Sheriff." snid he as calmly as possible. "you have a perfect right to give that sort of view. That's your businesst--to suspect people. However, some sort of an accident happened at the mine this afternoon--a cave-in or an explosion that tore out the roof of the tunnel--and I im sure that my partner is wandering among the hills. Will you help me to find him?" The sheriff wheeled about 1b his chair and studied a moment., Then he rose. "Guess I will," he announced. "It fcan't do any harm to look for him, ftn.vwHy." Half an hour later, aided by two deputies who had been summoned from their homes, Fairchild and the Sheriff left for the hills to begin the Search for the missing Harry. Late the next afternoon, they returned to town, tired, their horses almost crawling In their dragging pace after sixteen hours of travel through the drifts of the hills and gullies. Harry had not been found, and so Fairchild reported when, with drooping shoulders, he returned to the boarding house and to the waiting Mother Howard. And both knew that this time Harry's disappearance was no joke, as it had been before. They realized that back of it all was some sinister reason, some mystery which they could not solve--for the present, at least. That night, Fairchild faced the future and made ais resolve. There#wa3 only a week now until Harry's case should come to trial. Only a week until the failure of the defendant to appear should throw thefjl*, deeds of the' Blue Poppy mine Into the hands of the court, to be sold Tor the amount of the ball. And in spite of the tact that Fairchild now felt his mine to be a bonanza, unless some sort of a miracle could happen before that time, the mine was the same as lost. True, It would go to the highest bidder at a public sale and any money brought in above the amount of ball would be returned to him. But who Would be that bidder? Who would get the' mine--perhaps for twenty or twenty-five, thousand dollars, when it now was worth millions? Certainly not he. Unless something shonld happen to Intervene, unless Harry should return, or In some way Fairchild could raise the necessary Hve thousand* dollars to furbish a cash bond and again ttfcover the deeds of'the Blue Poppy, he was bo better off than before the stride made. Long he thought.* finally to come to his cfcnclusiofl- nhd^tfien. with the air of|a gambler who has placed his last bet to win or lose, he went to bed. Bat morning found him awake long before the rest of the house was stirring. The first workers on the street that morning found Fairchild offering them dlx dollars a day. And by eight o'clock, ten of them were at work in the drift of the Blue Poppy mine, working against time that they might repair the damage which had been caused by the cave-In. That day and the next and the next after that, they labored. Then Fairchild glanced at the progress that was being made and sought out the pseudoforeman. "Will it be finished by night?" he asked. , "Easily." "Very well. 1 q*y need these men to work on a day and night ahift--I'm not sure. I'll be back In an hour." Away he went and up the shaft, to travel as swiftly as possible through the drift-piled road down Kentucky gulch and to the Sampler. There he sought out old Undertaker Chastine, and with him went to the proprietor. "My name is Fairchild, and I'm in trouble," he said candidly. "I've brought Mr. Chastine with me because he assayed some of my ore a few days ago and believes he knows what it is worth. I'm working against time to get five thousand dollars. U I can produce ore that -uns two hundred dollars to the ton, and if I'll sell it to you for one hundred seventy-five dollars a ton until I can get the money I need, provided I can get the permission of the court--will - you put It through for me?" The Sampler owner smiled. "If you'll let me see where you're getting the ore." Then he figured a moment. "That'd be thirty or forty ton," came at last. "We could handle that as fast as you coald bring it In here." But a new thought had struck Fairchild-- a new necessity for money. "I'll give It to you for one hundred and fifty dollars a ton, providing you do the hauling and lend me enough after the first day or so to pay my men." "But why all the excitement--and the rush?" "My partner's Harry Harklns. He's due for trial Friday, and he's disappeared. The mine is up as security. You can see what will happen unless I can substitute a cash bond for the amount due before that time. Isn't that sufficient?" "It ought to be. But as I said. 1 want to see where the ore comes from." "You'll see In the morning--If I've got It," answered Fairchild with a new hope thrilling In his voice. "All that I have so far Is >n. assay of some drill scrapings. I 'don't know bow thick the vein is to pinch out in ten mfcKitatMfHSf, >we strike it. But 111 kn<>^ flftgirty seon.:: Every cent that Robfet Fairchild possessed In the world was in his pockets--two hundred dollars. After he had paid his men for their three days of labor, there would be exactly twenty dollars left. But Fairchild did not hesitate. To Farrell's office he went and with him to an Interview, in 'chambers, with the judge. Then, the necessary permission having been granted, he hurried back to the mine and into {he drift, there to find the last of the muck being scraped away from beneath the site of the cave-in. Fairchild paid off. 2%en he turned to the foreman. - , . "How many of these Bum are game to take a chance?" "Pretty near all of 'em--if there's any kind of a gamble to it." "There's a lot of gamble. I've got Just twenty dollars In my pocket-- enough to pay each man one dollar apiece for a night's work if my hunch doesn't pan out. If it does pan, the wages are twenty dollars a day for three days, with everybody, including myself, working like h--11 Who's game?" The answer came In" unison. Fairchild led the way to the chamber, seized a hammer and took his place. "There's two-hundred-dollar ore back of this foot wall if we can break in and start a new stope," he an- V. , "Will, You Put it Through for Met" nounced. "It takes a six-foot hole to reach It, and we can have the whole story by morning. Let's go!" Along the great length of the foot wall, extending all the distance of the big chamber, the men began their work, five men to the drills and as many to the sledges, as they started their double-jacking. Midnight came, the firs; of the six-foot drills sank to Its ultimate depth. Then the second and third and fourth; finally the fifth. They moved on. Hours more of work, and the jperation had been repeated. The workmen hurried for the powder house, far down the drift, by the shaft, lugging back in their pockets the yellow, candle-like "ticks of dynamite, with their waxy wrappers and their gelatinous contents, together with fuses and catfs. Crlrhplng nippers-- the Inevitable accompaniment of a miner--came forth from the pockets of the men. Careful tamping, then the men took their places at the fuses. "Give the word!" one of them announced crisply as he turned to Fairchild. "Each of us'll light one of these things, and then I say we'll run! Because this Is going to be some explosion !" Fairchild smiled the smile of a man whose heart Is thumping at Its maximum speed. Before him In the long line of the foot wall were ten holes, "upholes," "downs" .and "swimmers,"' attacking the hidden ore in every direction. Ten holes drilled six feet into the rook and tamped wtth double charges of dynamite. He straight- "All right, menl Ready 1* v "Beady!" * . ^ "Touch 'em off!** . > The carbide lamps were held close to the fuses for a second. .Soon they were all going, spitting like so many venomous, angry serpents--but neither Fairchild nor the miners had stopped to watch. They were running aa bard as possible for the shaft and for the protection that distance might give. A wait that seemed ages. Thtrij j_ "One!" ^ "And twx>--and three I" "There goes four and went together!" "Six--seven--eight--nine--*, Again a wait, while they' looked at one another with vacuous eyes. A long interval until the tenth. "Two went together then! I thought we'd counted nine?" The foreman stared, and Fairchild studied. Then his face lighted. II "Eleven's right.. One of them must have set off the charge that Harry left In there. All the better--it gives us Jtast that much more of a chance." < • * Hfi &ey •dm-Cr JpMfr tlH$-j||on« the drift tunnel now, cotgp|jj|(|;, aUffrtly as the sharp smoke o^^M^wSte cut their lungs--a long" Jo#*t«*jr. that seemed as many miles instead of feet. Then with i shout Fairchild sprang forward, and, went i# his hands and knees. It was there before him--all about him--the black, heavy masses of leadsilver ore, a great, heaping, five-ton pile of It where It had been thrown tfut by the tremendous force of the explosion. It seemed that the whole great floor of the cavern was covered with't, and the workmen shouted with Fairchild as they seized bits of the precious black Btuff and held It to the light for closer examination. "Look!" The voice of one of them was high and excited. "You 9ari see the fine streaks -of silver sticking out I It's high-grade and plenty of it!" But Fairchild paid little attention. He was playing in the stuff, throwing it in the air and letting it fall to the floor of the cavern again, like a boy with a new sack of marbles, or a child with Its building blocks. Five tons and the night was not yet over I Five tons, and the vein had not yet shown its other side! . Back to work they went now. Again through the hours the drills bit Into the rock walls, while the ore car clattered along the tram line and while the creaking of the block and tackle at the shaft seemed endless. In three days, approximately forty tons of ore must come out of that mine--and work must not cease. Morning, and In spite of the sleepladen eyes, the heavy aching In bis head, the tired drooping of the shoulders, Fairchild tramped to the boarding house to notify Mother Howard and ask for news of Harry. There had been none. Then he went on, to wait by the door of the Sampler until Rlttson. the owner, should appear, and drag him away up the hill, even before he could open up for the morning. "There It Is!" he exclaimed, as he 4ed him to the entrance of the chamber. "There It is; take all you want of it and assay it !n Blttson went forward.Into the .crosscut, where the men were drilling even at new holes, and examined the vein. Already it was three feet thick, and there was still ore ahead. One of the miners loked up. ' "Just finishing up on tire «!ress-cut,w he announced, as he nodded toward his drill. "I've just bitten Into the foot wall on the other side. -Looks to me like the vein's abont five feet thlcfc-- as near as I can measure it" "And--" Bittson picked up a few samples, examined them by the light of the carbides and tossed tljem away --"you can see the1 sliver sticking out. I caught sight of a couple of pencil threads of It in one or two of those samples. All right. Boy!" he turned to Fairchild. "What was that bargain we made?" 'It was based on two hundred dollars- a-ton ore. This may run aboveror below. But whatever It is, I'll sell all you can handle for the next three days at fifty dollars a ton under the assay price." "You've said the word. The trucks will be here in an hour if we have to shovel a path all the way up Kentucky gulch." He hurried away then, while fairchild and the men followed him into town and to their breakfast. Then, recruiting a new ganp on the promise of payment at the end of their threeday shift, Fairchild went back to the mine. But the word had spread, and others were there before him. Already fifteen or twenty miners were assembled about the opening of the Blue Poppy tunnel, awaiting permission to enter, the usual rush upoh a lucky mine to view its riches. Behind him, Fairchild could see others coming from Ohadi to take a look at the new strike, and his heart bounded with happiness tinged with sorrow. Harry was not there to enjoy it all; Harry was gone, and in spite of his every effort, Fairchild had failed to find him) Some one brushed against him, and there came a slight tug at his coat. Fairchild looked downward to see passing the form of Anita Richmond. A moment later she looked toward him, but in her eyes there was no light of recognition, nothing to indicate that she had Just given him a signal of greeting and congratulation. And yet Fairchild felt that she had. Then, absently, he put his hand Into his pocket. Something-there caused his heart to halt momentarily--a piece of paper. He crumpled it in his hand, he rubbed his fingers over It wonderlngly; It l.ad not been In his pocket before she ha"1 passed him. Hurriedly he walked to the far side of the chamber and there, pretending to examine a bit of ore, brought the missive from its place of secretion, to unfold It With trembling fingers, then to stare at the words Which showed before him: "Squint Rodaine Is terribly worried about something. Has been on an awful rampage all morning. Something critical Is brewing, but I don't know what. Suggest you keep watch on him. Please destroy •his." That was all. There was no signature. But Robert Fairchild had seen the writing of Anita Richmond once before! , (TO BE CONTINUED.) Pair Separated Since Death of Mother Are Reunitoiity Hew* paper AdVfertii|ftient.
