Mea- gro the fact that the provailing mining fe- ver made a granite ledgo seen scarcely an irrational site for prospect holes, the pro- prietors wero ridiculed no little for their cholee of location during their occasional visits, for supplies or other business, to the mneighbori moun- tain town. It was assumed Khnt they had independent sources of income, since the mine certainly could not yleld them the necessariss of life. *'She wouldn't buy her own fuse, lot alono blasting powder,” snid one mining sharp, nol disant. ‘*Such tenderfeet cc ouldn’t locate o graveyard for me. They'd better cat their shaft Into three-foot sections and peddle it to the new telegraph_compeny for post holes.” The parties were reti- cent and self-contained about thelr busi- ness, and bore weli the attempted facoti- ousness of the camp. At lust there was tho inovitable grati- fied flutter of fulfilled prmlic!iuu among the prophets, when *‘Crib” Lowis came to make his abode in town, with tac an- nouncement of his partner's departure for their former home. “L(m was not fitted for rough life like that,” ho said, in casual fl\’)]l\nnunu. “\'uw if wo had_mado 2 big ke, ho might have stayed with it TEie But Lord! how he did hato this part of the world! All you fellows know how often he used to swear ho was going to break off and go ‘hack to God's country.’ I miss him, of course; wo've been to- gether from the time wo could run alone.” Howard'’s absence was regretted less than might have been had not Lewis so freely alluded to his partner's sense of superiority to the eoction. There was no doubt that Lewls, left to himsclf, chang- ed most unfavorably. He coarsened and roughened day by day, and sottled thros 1ch lower eocial strats, until the most depraved and vicious of the camp were Lis chosen associates In the wild debauches of which, without labor, he al. weys had ample funds, 1t was at this time that my father, coming home to our late dinner, an: nounced the arrival on the evening train, of a fellow-Californian and old-time neighbor of our family. Mr. Walter made one or two expeditions into the outlying reglon and then quietly stated to us the conclusion of ney itiations by which the *‘Fraternity” became tho property of a wealthy Culifornia mining company, a8 whose agent our friend had come hither, The terms of the eale wore 00 considerable as to give the transaction an importance beyond any other that had taken place in tho district for a twelve-month past, Thorefore, Mr, Walter, apprehending a rush of claim- ants to ‘‘the extension,” thought it ¢x- pedient to fix acourately the boundarics of the original mine before knowledgo of this unexpected purchase should gencr- ally tromspire. Kor this purposo tho expert, my father, and a young surveyor, propared to drive out to the mine, and Dr. Walter, with whom 1 was a favorite, suggested that 1 shonld make the fourth in tho carriag We made a late wtart, and (lnvlm onsily tho thirty odd milet, wo reached the mine a little beforo night. It was not too late to view the place—certainly a8 littlo as well might bo liko any pre conceived idea of a voluablo mine. A littlo draw running down from the low mountains a league awsy, with only an cceasional scrubby treo dotting its arid border. A small tent on the slops near the run, and some rods distant, half way up the incline of tho mound-like hill, a primitlve windlags, in no wiso different, save in point of massiveness, from the apparatus at the well fn many en old- fashioned farmyard, “And thisis the mine that has coat Scott, Reynolds & Burke such a prepos- terous wum on the strength of your ver- dict!” I cried, plcking up a bit of the glistening white rock, almoat white as marble, that salted the earth. *I won- der, Mr. Walter, that you dare assume such responsibility. This is certainly unlike any ore-bearing rock that I have seen, youl fhtter myself that I ave grown quite a connoisaeur, “That is the phenomenal peculiarity of the mine—the surface indicatious are g0 slight. Yet you can find a certain amount of silver float among this beautiful, worthless stuff. The fact remains that the load is almoat virgin sil ver, as you shall seo to-morrow, 1 have traced it far into the extenslon, by a well defined line of minor shafts—you sco the dumps warking their situation, Those men worked almost as if by intuition?

Well, I aupposo Lo feels dis “raced by hia diesipation there, and the figure he geta is big enough to eutisfy any man."” commonted 1y alytical turn, and 10t over-full of faith in his kind, Mr. Walcer laughed, “Straight enough 8 our ¢ ) i8 concerncd, Wa'll uo what o bicd in the busl FWWhat prosision hevo you against Howard's claim?" wmy fathor asked du biou that's all richt.

Mr. Walter came and stood near the carriago, ““There is somothing oppres- sivo in that tent,” he said; 1 could not sloep there, possibly. A chill struck me the moment I entered. It was just so when we looked in at the stores this afternoon What can bo the causel” ©A band of Apaches may have looked inand left their bluod-mmlln»q taint on tho atmosphere,” my father jeorod. “They were seen through hore a faw woeks ago.

The child is fond of her name, Good night,” My last waking consciousness was ono of amusement at my father’s cavallor dealing with Mr., Walter, and a aild wonder at the pationce with which that gontleman sustained patent reflections against his courage. Then an indofinite period of doep, dreamless sleep, before I ewakened, starting, shuddering with the horror of —what was 1t? The lugubrions, long-drawn howl of a pack of wolves, drawn hither by the scent of our food! But, in this section even the skulking coyote was raro in the extreme. Waa it, then, the despairing cry of a vn)fnrur, hnL\tud who had fallon upon some un- known peril, or had a band of marauding Apaches slipped down upon us to make an unaccustomed night attack? A bed was o, withits her sproad e —— JVEMBER 8 1884, dend man i it, packing und treading the !ld earth over hia sensclens clay. Than, with deliberato ingenuity, he spaded \ over all loor of the tent nntil it pre sonted a uniform surface. The stores, the barrel, the tonls, wore carefully re. placed, and, last of all, the assasain set up again the bed in its accustomed stand But the consummation of brutal differ enco was reached when Louis cooly strotched himself upon that empty couch above the bloody grave where lay his vie tim, Mo lay, and seemed to sleep, and again tho splendid head and mournful eyas of his old-time friend took shape In the air and bent abovo the slayor. Lowis sprang up with a wild ringing ery that rang through the night with awful pow or, and dashed into the darkness, No need to questton longer what had roused us from slomber; tho samo alarm swept over us now, the ssmo engorged brain oppressed, the same depleted heart channels, tho same wavering, failing members distressed. The spell was broken. How long we had been watching we could never know; but we must have slept until the night was far advancod and dawn had not yet come, The scenes wo had just witnessed would have ocoupted hours in their actusl oceurrence; whereas they had been comp pressed into a brief period of time by some subtle process analagous to the swift operation of dreams. Shocked and stunned, we had not moved when Alfred Walter spoke. i) worn than mere hallucination. Thero is purpose init. Tho manifesta- tion is beginning again, Look at tho mine!"" Boyond a doubt thero was somo re- potitive power hero-some purpose of regularity in recurrence; for we watched the phenomenon until it had reached the stage of location. Then Alfred Walter stood up with o deop-drawn breath, “Lot us get out the Instead of monumenting we must open a tomb,” The three men lost no time; strong and active all, it was only & brief while till they had dug away the enrth from the mortal remains of Lon Howard, done to denth by the traitorous hand of the man he had loved and trusted like a brother. The terrible task accomplished, Hande rode over the bridge to Sal and brought back a crowd of men and a buckboard to convey poor Howard's body into town, Our own_vparty roturned iatact, Wo 1uft our melancholy convoy a leaguo out- sido the town, and hastoned forward to prepare forits reception. As we drove through tho main street of tho camp, still carly in the day, olusters of men were talking hero and there with the absorbed, impressivo air thut generally tells of the shovela, o claim *Yaador!” my father softly called, as I cocked my ready revolver—for on the frontior a woman learns the duty of self- defenso, In onother moment we were grouped beneath the carriags, preparing as wo conld for what might come. The long rifles rosted across the wheel spokes, and the reserve pistols lay close at hand. No cight, no further sound, The night waa opaquely dark. ‘“The horses!” I whispered, with a sudden recollection, and in another moment young Hande was noiselossly gliding with a_ snako’s sinuous movement to the tree where his two bays were tethered, Ho slipped amum: us again, calm and wary. “QOub and Bnby are there,” ke eaid, “bnt trembling to thoir hoofs, They scont mischief,” “Look at the mine!” cried Alfred Walter, thrilling. From the mouth of the shaft streamed upward—what? Aluminous mist, a palel y phosphorescent cloud, electric, growing vague and dim, but unmistak- able. It increased in volume and it deepened in density, ha Fhuun body of cold incaudescence in re- iof agalnst the gloom. Then began a distinct movement among its particles, neither pulsating nor rotary, but rather akin to &n irregular sys- tem of endosmose and oxosmose. It is impossible to describe tho peculiar ap- pearance of atomic ecintillation in a mass of purely nebulous matter that, in bulk, gavo no suggestion of molecular constitu- tion, Gradually the mysterious rubstanco densified about its centra. With many a wavering expreesion and contraction, an ontline shaped itself within the cloud shaped itself, apparently . materialized, and stood forth, the head and shou!ders of o singularly handsomo man, whose mournful eyes looked toward us, over us, through us, to the tent of the ‘‘Fra- ternity” partners, on the edge of the draw. 200d heavens!” cried Harvey Hande, t is Lon Howard,” *‘But look!” said Allred Walter; ‘‘see how the cloud is moving."” T'he central apparition resolved itself again into luminous mist, and the nebula swung forward, floating tromuloualy down the hillside toward us and the tent. 1t kept its shapoless shape no briefest min- ute, Now it stroamed up through the night like the mounting flame from somo funeral pyre; now it spread flatly, liko o great bird swoping with pinions w outspread; again rolling, globular in form and motion, or whirled furiously a8 If driven by a mighty gale. The edges of the aerial macs swept 80 near us in 1ts paesage that we, crouching there beforo the mystery, felt ourselves drawn for- ward with it, for through us, at its neighborhood, ran an electric thrill, acute to painfulness, yet with a curious sense of exaltation and attractlon, “1¢ is gone!” 1t ia not gone,” exid Alfred Waltor; ¢ It has entered the tent.” We had lefs the door-flaps of the tent thrown back, relylng on the dryness of the season and through the opening wo could ee tho whole interlor, illuminated by that strange uncarthly glow. And yet not the faintest gleam pierced the thin canvass walls, Save atita entrance The tent was not to be distingulshed from the light without. Gazing into that narrow space, we four who watched that sight saw developed o drama such 28 was nover seen by mortsl eye before.

Ho stirred, he turned in his slecp and rose upon one arm to look about him and gars out into the night, and, sceming reas- sured, sank back aczain to rest. Then suother tall shape appeared at the t loor, rifle in hand, s if from keep! quard, Ho bent to hear the alecper's ug.
