(Continued) They picked their way down tle drunken descent to the Scales, then breasted the sluggish human current to Sheep Camp. A group of -men were reading .a notice newly posted upon the wall of the log building which served. as restaurant and hotel, ‘and -after scanning it Pierce explained: “It's another call for a miner's meeting. We're having quite a time with cache-robbers If we catch them we'll hang them.” The Countess nodded. “Right! ‘They deserve it. You know we don't inside.” Now, then, I'll say good-by.” She paid Pierce and extended her hand . “Thank you for helping me across. I'll be in Dyea by dark.” hope we'll meet again,” he said, with a slight flush. The woman tayared him with one of her generous, friendly smiles, “I hope so, too. You're a nice boy. ike you.” Then she stepped into the building and_was gone. “A nice boy!” Phillips was pained. A boy! And he the sturdiest packer on the pass, with perhaps one ex- ception! him. he was more than a boy. enced a keen desire to appear well in her eyes, to appear mature and forceful. He asked himself what kind of man Count Courteau could be; he wondered if he, Pierce Phil- ips, could fall in love with such a an as this, an older woman, a woman who had been married. It - would be queer to marry a countess, he reflected. As he walked toward his tempo- rary home he beheld quite a gath- ering of citizens, and paused long enough ta note that they were being harrangued by the confidence-man who had first initiated him into the subtleties of the three-shell game. Mr. Broad had climbed upon a raised tent platform and was presenting an earnest argument against capital punishment. Two strangers upon the fringe of the crowd were talk- ing, and Pierce heard one of them f course he wants the law to take its course, inasmuch as ;thete isn't ,any law. He's one of thé gang. &. he surest way to flush.a covey of crooks is to whistle for old Judge Lynch,” the other man agreed. “Listen to him!” “Have they caught the cache-rob- ” Phillips made hoid to inquire, “No, and they won't catch them, with fellows like that on the com- mittee. The crooks hang together and we don’t. If I had my way that’s just what they’d do—hang together. T'd start in by bending a limb over that rascal.” Phillips had attended several of these indignation meetings and, re- membering that all of them had proved purposeless, he went. on toward the McCaskey brothers’ tent. He and the McCasl ‘{ '$ were not. the closest of friends, in spite of the fact that they had done him a favor =a favor, by the way, for which he had paid many times over—neverthe- less they were his most intimate ac- quaintances and he felt an urgent desire to tell them about his unusual experience. His desire to talk about the Countess ;Courteau. was irre- sistible. But when ‘he entered the tent his greeting fell flat, for Joe, the older McCaskey, -addressed him ~sharply, almost accusingly Say, it's about time you showed Vhat’s the matter?” Pierce saw that the other. brother was stretched out in his blankets and that his‘head was bandaged. “Hello!” he cried. hat ails Jim? ‘Ishe sick?” — “Sick?

All were armed. Pierce, Philli amazement gave way to indignation. “What is this, an arrest or a hold-up?” he in- quired. — “Thisvis an outrage!" Jim Mo- Caskey complained. i'm just get- ting over one stick-up. I'm a sick man.” ‘Sure!” his brother exclaimed furiously. “You're a pack of fools! What d’'you want, anyhow?” “We want you to shut up!
