2 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: JANUARY 22, 1877.—-Eight Pages. THE OMAHA BEE. THE PRICE OF DORA’S GOLD! BY 8. ANNIK FRUST. If you had half the sprit ofa man, you would go too I"’ Poor John Raynor had heard thie 80 often in the last two weeks that at last he was roused to answer. “See here, Dora,” hesaid, pulling his wite down upon his knee, and bholding her fast, ‘‘do you mean that? You have said it about fifty tumes since this expedition was talked about, now tell me if you ‘want me to go.” Dead silence on the part of Dora. “] have been working hara for five years to ciear off the mor'gage upon the a'm that I might have a home for you,” .ontinued John, earnestly, “aud 1t is mine now, clear of debt. We are not rich, but I am strong and not of aid of work, and you have been brougntupa farmer’s daughter, and know the dutiesot a farmcr's wife Six months ago you were happy a3 a bird, my bride and darling, but now” “Now,” interrupted Dore, ¢ I ses au opportunity for you to bec me rich in a few months insteed of tolling and slaving for life, as your father and my iather toiled and slaved to make a bare living by farming. They te:l us that gold can be picked up at the Black Hills in pockettuls at a tune.” “Well " “Aund we could be rich. We could leave this miserable farm and go to the city to live in a great house, with servants, carriages fine furni- ture. O3, John !” Dora had slipped from her perch upon her husband’s knee, and stocd before him, her little figure drawn erect, her big blue eyes flashing her cheeks with excitement. “And it wou.d make me happy ?”’ asked Jobn wistfully. “Yes! Oi course it would! Who wouid not be happy with plenty of money ?"’ “There are two sides to the ques- tion,” said Jobn, quietly. “The Indians have the right to keep us oft this promisiug gold coun.ry, and they defend its passes. It may be Your bag of gold will be only John Raynor's scal, head ! ““Oh, if you are afraid to go, that ends n !"” Dora said, quickly. 1t was a cruel lpeech and it stab- bed the honest, loving heart of John Rayuor to the core. He was no ©coward, bit a strong, brave mar, ‘with a noble nature, but he was fond of his home, of the farm he had worked so 'mt‘n{ull) to clear of dabt, and of the wife he had loved for five long years Oaiy s1x mouths had pased rince his wedding day, when Dora seem- ed entirely happy 1n his love, and 1 the cosy nest he biad taken an honest pride 12 winning for her. Then the young men of the vil lage of Topham became smitten with the gold tever, and about a doz2n of them resolved to form an expedition to the Black Hilis Dora’s brother, T'om Haven, was the prime moverin the scheme, and coming every day to lay all his dreams and plans before his sister, he had inspired her with the same feverish thirst for gold that was driving him from home to brave the the toils and perils of the expedi- tion. wuike many women brought up to work hard, to own but little finery, to live upon plain fare, Dora set a fictitious value upon the delights of wealth. 8he built gorgeous air- castles founded upon the few works of riction she had read, and dreamed of an existence to which that of a princess in a fairy tale would have been dull and prosaie. And with her head full of these airy visions, it provoked her past all patience that that John was content to follow his plow, to eat greens and bazon, and wear coarse clothing, as ne had done all his life. He would hsten to all Tom’s glowing de- seriptions of the expedition with a grave, quiet face, sometimes speak- ing a word of caution or warning that fell upon deaf ears. He would answer all her hints and taunts by a gentle: “I'm well content here, Dora, with my life-long home and my darling wife!” But at last he was roused, not to any hope such as spurred the others on, but to the fact that Dora wished him to go. “She thinks more of thegold than of me !"” he thought, rising heavily from the chair and speaking slowly. “8inoce you wish it, Dora, I will go!” hesaid, and even her enthusi- asm was held in check a moment by his pale face. “Oh, I don’t wish to drive you,” she said, pettishly ; “ir you are con- tent to vegetate for life in this mis- erable hole, I suppose I can put up with it.” “I will go!” He spoke the three words with stern emphasis, and left the room. His heart seemed breaking. For five years he had had but one dream for the future. Father aud mother lay in the churchyard, brotbers or sisters Lie had none, and the entire love of nis heart was given to pretty Dora Haven. He 'was burdened with debts his father left for his sole legacy, his home was heayily mortgaged, nnd he would not ask Dora 1o share in the priva- tion and toil by which he freed him- self. And when at last he could ask ber to come and brighten the home he had made for her, it had seemed to him his cup of happiness brimmed over He possed fro.n the room where he had announced his decision, and wandered slowly ull over the house. It was small, but every portion was wll of tender association to him. In one room bis parents had died, in another was the cottage {urmmre hehadsentall the way from *“York’” to get to please his bride. The parlor carpet and substantial horse hair set | had come at the same time, filiing | him pardonable pride at the prepa rations .or his marriage. These white curtains Dora had | made in her fi st week of home life as his wife. Tnese autumn leaves they had | gathered mn their lover stro I3, and Dora had made them into wreaths | and bunches to bring with , her to aderu the walls of their new | bome. He was but & simple farmer, nct yet twenty-five, with but a meagre education, and not given to dreams or castle bulldmg. Taoroughly content to live as his father and grand-father haa lived before him, he eould not compre- hend the visious filling Dora’s ima- gination. He hait hopsd yet that she would urge him to give up his intention and remain at home, and yet he knew that her content with the humbie happiness he could give her was gone. But Dora, though frightened twenuty times a day at the success of her taunts, would not speak the words he hoped to hear Very rapidly the were made Lo depart, for Lie olhers were nearly ready, ana the little uest ezg at the bank was all gon - be- fora John Ruynor was fully equip- ped as a miner. I'ne tirst realization of what she was giving up for a dream, came to Dora wnen she stood upon the plat- orm of the rustic railway staiion, with Tom up n onpe sids and John on the otber, the former full of ex- vltation, with merry smile and brizht eyes, the iatter grave and stern, with lowering brow and set lips “John,” the little wife whispered, “if you do not wish to go"" “It is too late for that!” he said, barshly, and theu hearing the ap- proaching train, his face softened, and he eaught ber in his arms. “God keep you, little wife,” he said, hoarsely, “I go forlove of you ! I may come DacK ricn and msake you happy. No man will work hsrder for gold than I wili, to bring it to you. ‘I'brough a mist of t.ars sl him follow the others into the car aid then joined the groups of weep- ing women who had come upon the same sorrowful errand as her own. tetters came but rarely John’s tiard hands could guide a plow far m re easily than they could wield a peun, and when he wrote his epsties were brief, though loving. As the expedition went further and further from the borders o: vivilization, the communications became less fre- quent. Bat trom the hour when the train carried John out of sight, Dora’s punishment began. The co~y home his love had fitted up for her was a bauuting reproach, and the excite- ment of Tom's visits over, memory began to recall all John’s love and the chauge tnat had come upon him aiter he decided 10 join the gold- seekers, 1t was no comfort to cross the lots and go to her old home, for there Mir. and Mrs. Haven bewailed T ms absence, and gave Dora round scold- in:s for epcouraging him in s crazy expediion. ¢ L'ke 23 not we'll never see either one of them again, or know how they died.” Mrs. Haven would moan, rocking herself to and fro, ‘“a good son Tow was, till he got the gold fever.”’ “And a better husband than John never lived,” Mr. Hayen wouid say, “and you gave hiw no peace or rest till you drove him oft I”’ Aud geing vack to her desolate bouse, Dora could gather no comfort in the old dreams. Nannie, her only servant, would bring her kuit- ting to the sitting roowm, and drive der mistress Lalf frantic by her sincere lamentations for the master. Night after night, kneeling to pray for John’s safe return, Dora felt the agouy of self-reproach grew keener and keener. For 1: had come to this very s:on, that the longiug for wealth, ths hope of being a great Iady, all faded away, aud the desolate wife’s only prayer was for her husband’s return. A whole year passed away, and the miners had not returned. A wee snowdrop of a baby came io Jie for one brief week upon Dora’s breast, and then leave her. Oceca- sionally the newspapers that came irregularly to the village, told of dis- aster and death in the gold regions, but never were the names of the party from Topham in the list, and Dora hopec against hope. win'‘er snows were lying over the farms, and tifteen months had drag- ged out their weary length since John Raynor had left his home. A pale, wasted shadow of Dora moved listles-ly about the farm-house, and Nannie muttered often: “She’ll not be long after her hus- band and child ” Grief and remorse were doing a fatal work with pretty Dora, when one evening as dusk was setting into night shadows, there came a startling knock at the door of the farm-touse. Dora started to her feet, but s»nk back, half fainting, into her uhaer saying, with white trembling lips : “‘Quick, Nannie, go quick! may b2 John.” Nanuie was not behind-hand and opened the door quickly. A tall brown bearded man stood upon the poreh, who passed the old ¢ servant, and entered the room where Dora, with white cheeks,and startl d eyes, looked at him, then prepa-ation It beyond him. Beyond him into vacaucy “Tom! Tom! Where—wiere is” Bhe could not frame the question, but her brother caught her wasted figure in his arms, as she reeled across the room to meet him. “I haue come alone, Dora!” he said. *‘There are but three men left of all wto went from here.” The white lips moved, noiselessly only the great blue eyes were strain- ed in mute question. “We were returning,” Tom said, “and we hud succeeded beyond our wildest hopes We had sent the gold on vy a circuitovs route, with :ames Hill and Jerry Fane, and a guard of triendly Indians.” He paused, but the burning eyes never weavered “‘They got safe to the nearest tert, and forwarded the gold by careful | stages to Chicage. But we were not so fortunate. We were encamp- ed one night and John was writing to you by the fireligh . He looked | up at me to ask if it was worth | while to write, when, after so lnng' a silence we were goluu home, and while he spoke the crack of a rifle | told us the Indians were upon us. | ‘rhe first shot killed John. | rait seven days, collected by the agents and Correspondents of the New York Daily WDILD.I d . sccuracy and enter- unequalled.

Now, I must go back to mot -er, but I will bring her Lack, at onee.” Dora did not hear him. With diszy brain she was trying te read the letter that was John’s dying legroy. Badly Tom kissed her, and mo- tioning to Naunie left her, to hasten h meward. Beant gre«ti.g he gave the love ! ones there, to hasten his paren s back to the farm, where his widow- od sister was reading har letter. In the deeparm chair, where Tom | had gently placed ber, she rested, still clasping the blood-stained letter in ber hands. But her eyes never read the lines there, her heartb oke over the fatal news that her brother brongt.
