THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE, SATURDAY. MAY 9, 1896.
ICopyrlght. 1895. by J. B. Lrpplncott Co.
"1 shouldn't1 have put it in any Buch
uncharitable form," responded Ludlow,
reflectively, "but, since you've men
tioned it, I'll say what's been in my
inind ever since you told me what
brought you to Tregarthen. Hester
Latimer's husband will have to do one
of two things help fight the family
battles or refuse to have anything to
do with them. The first may cost him
his life, and the last will be very sure
to cost him his happiness; I'm no hand
to meddle, ns you know, Hugh, but it's
well enough to consider these things
"before it's too late."
"That's the pity of it, Tom," replied
Ringbranxl, quietly. . "I'm afraid it's
too late now. I realized two things
pretty clearlv last nirrht one was that
life without Hester wouldn't be worth
living, and the other was that I'd rather
die than have her find me out for what
lam."
you haven't any good reason for think
in r t.nnt vnil lire "
"A coward say it, Tom; I ought to
be able to bear the truth, and that is
the truth. I know it; I've known it
all along, only I've been trying to make
i ex. t Tl,o'

what was at the bottom of all those
little things you remember in the uni
versity daj's; you don't know how I
despise myself when I think of it all."
"No, I don't remember anything but
what I said a. moment ago that you
-were always a peaceable sort of fellow."
"That isn't it; it's one thing to be
peaceable from principle, and quite an
other to be restrained by a wholesome
fear of consequences. It's always been
the latter with me. I can look back
over my life and see how I've been con
tinually dodging. When I was a little
fellow, the fear of a whipping was the
strongest incentive to good behavior,
and the same argument has held good
ever since. You know that, Tom, if
you'd only admit it."
".No, I don't know anything of
the kind," protested Ludlow.
"Well, it's true. You remember that
affair with Turnlmll in the last year
when he went out of his way to insult
me. ' You took occasion to praise my
self-control, but I want to tell you now
that it was the merest sham; I was
afraid to resent it, and that's the
truth."
"Nonsense!" retorted Ludlow; "you
did just right not to demean yourself
by fighting with a cub of an under
graduate." "I'm not arguing about that it's the
motive; it was cowardice, pure and
simple; there's no other name for it.
What are you laughing at?"
"It's amusing to hear you vilify your
self. But seriously, Hugh, this is a
word for it that you're properly in love
with Hester Latimer; if she docs you
the honor to return your affection
which, I take it, is not yet a foregone
conclusion why, you're a lucky fel
low, and you sho.uld be thankful enough
to'fight her battles, and those of her
father and brother if need be. It may
not require such a phenomenal degree
of physical courage, but it'll ask" for
some of the moral variety; and there's
always a wide possibility that it'll de
mand both in heroic proportions, i!
I were in your place I should fight the
battle beforehand ; then, if you find
you're not going to be up to it, the hon
orable thing is to pull out while the
girl is yet fancy free. That's pretty
straight talk; but you know me of old,
and you have invited frankness."
They were nearing the furnace yard,
and Eingbrand did not reply until they
reached the gate; then he grasped Lud
low's hand and pressed it warmly.
"You're a good friend, Tom. I'll think
it over and try to do as you advise
Only if I can't bring myself up to the
mark, you mustn't be surprised if I
should drop out unexpectedly. I don't
believe I could face you or Mrs. Ludlow
after that."
"Thinking it over" asked for solitude
and quiet surroundings; and after
leaving Ludlow, Eingbrand walked on
np the valley, skirting the base of the
mountain until he came to a rough
cart road leading toward the summit,
ne took it because it plunged into the
forest and offered shade; and after that
he paid little attention to direction or
distance until he found himself before
what appeared to be an abandoned
mine. The mouth of the opening was
choked up with broken timbers and
masses of rock, and on a board nailed
to a tree growing out of a crevice just
above the tunnel arch he read: "Mc-
Nabb Tunnel, T. C. & I. Co." The name
brought back Ludlow's story of the
feud and the lawsuit, and he examined
the place with awakening interest.
From the small cleared space in front
of the working ho could sec the extent
of the cove with its shelving sides pitch
ing down toward the yellow fields in
the center; and, as there was but one
house in sight in the bowllike depres
sion, he concluded at once that it was
the home of the Bynums. Turning
again to the tunnel, he found that by
scrambling over the pile of debris in
the entrance he could reach a place
where the height of the excavation
permitted him to stand upright; and
when his eyes became accustomed to
the dim half-light, he looked about him
with the observant curiosity of one
who sees latent possibilities for the
collecting of literary material from the
most ' commonplace surroundings.
There was little to be seen save the
ragged walls of coal and a few rusty
mining tools; the heading stopped ab
ruptly about 30 feet from the entrance,
and the excavation was a mere irreg
ular gap in the edge of the thick seam
of coal. While he was examining a
miner's lamp which he found sticking
in a crevice, he felt a breath of cold
air which seemed to come from above,
and, looking up, he saw a narrow rift
in the sandstone roof of the tunnel
from which the draught appeared to
issue. Lighting the lamp and thrust
ing it up into the aperture on the end
of a stick, he could see that the rift
widened above the opening and that it
extended indefinitely into the mountain
at right angles to the direction of the
tunnel. The opportunities for further
exploration seemed promising, and
Eingbrand, yielding to an inquisitive
impulse, drew himself up into the crev
ice by the help of a coal pick. By the
smoky flare of the lamp he could see
that he was standing in a natural tifn
nel of considerable height, running
crosswise of the coal working and com
municating with it by the aperture
through which he had entered. As it
was evident that the latter opening
was artificial or accidental, he deter
mined to ascertain if there was any
other means of egress from the cavern.
Turning to the left, the exploration
came shortly to an end against a wall
of broken rock and detritus which
completely filled the crevice; re
tracing his steps, he pushed forward
in the opposite direction, meeting
with no obstacle. for a considerable
distance. The cleft was of irreg
ular width, but its walls were perpen
dicular and smooth, rising above his
head until their outlines were lost in
the gloom. At several points they ap
proached, each other so nearly that he
had some difficulty in squeezing
through; but after the passage of
one 01 tne narrowest 01 mese
rocky straits he came out into
a large chamber, in which the
murky darkness was diluted by a
thin stream of sunlight filtering
through a hole in the roof. He stood
gazing upward at the small aperture
far above, wondering if it could be
used as an entrance without 'the" help
of a rope ladder. The question had
scarcely taken shape before its answer
appeared in the form of a double row
of rude niches cut in the wall and run
ning in irregular lines up to the gash
in the roof. In the fine damp sand at
his feet he saw the imprint of a man's
boot, and there were many more of
them just beyond it. The explorer ex
amined them carefully, and then sat
down upon a rock to classify his find
ings. "I wonder if I haven't stumbled
upon something that'll help Ludlow
out?" he mused. "This is evidently an
entrance to the coal mine that he
doesn't know about. It's quite clear
By the smoky flare of the lamp he could see that
he was standing In a natural tunnel.
that it has been used, too, and some one
has taken a deal of trouble to make it
available. I wonder if there's any other
way but of the place? I suppose there
isn't."
He rose "and walked across the cham
ber to the point where the crevice ap
peared to continue its way into the
mountain. There was a narrow slit
showing that the cleft extended still
farther, but the contracted passage was
only a few inches in width. Fastening
the hook of the lamp upon one of thi
points of the pick, he pushed the light
into the crevice as far as he could reach,
and by this means was able to discern
the dim outlines of another chamber
similar to the one in which he was
standing. In moving the light about
to get a better view, the lamp tumbled
off and rolled out of reach; and in en
deavoring to recover it with the pick
the point of the latter became so firm
ly fixed in a crack in the rock that
he was unable to extricate it. "That
was a bright thing to do," he said,
pausing to wipe the perspiration from
his forehead. "I suppose it would have
been all the same if my life had depend
ed upon that trumpery excuse for a
light. Fortunately, I can get out either
way without it."
He elected to go back by the way he
had c6me, and when he was once more
in the open air he found that he had
just time to walk back to Tregarthen
before dinner. On the way down the
mountain he debated with himself as
to whether it were best to tell Ludlov.
of his discovery at once. There was no
apparent reason why he should not
do so, but he argued that there was
aiso no occasion for haste; a delay of
a few days could make no difference,
and in that time he might be able to
gather additional information which
would fit into the discovery and so
make it more valuable. Taking this
view of the matter, he determined to
say nothing to Ludlow about the exist
ence of the crevice-cave; and in reach
ing this conclusion he forged the first
link in a chain that was to bind him
at a time when he would have given
life itself for an hour of freedom.
It'll nw. f' ' n i'v w fi 1 m uiu ' wn 11 n
Passing the furnace on his way to the
village, he called for Ludlow, and they
walked home together. In answer to
his friend's question, Eingbrand replied
that he had spent the forenoon on the
mountain. "I've been thinking about
the story you told me this morning,
he added. "Can't you give me more of
the details?"
"About the feud, you mean?"
"Yes."
Ludlow complied by giving a minute
account of the rise and progress of the
vendetta, repeating his suspicions
about the agency of the Bynums in re
tarding the work of the McISabb.
"What reasons have you for suspect
ing them?" asked Eingbrand.
"No one else had any motive for in'
terfering with us, and I am sure that
some one blew down the. roof of the
tunnel more than once."
"How can you be sure of that?"
"I saw the marks of the blasts, and I
smelled black powder; our workmen
were using nothing but dynamite. Be
sides I questioned some of the people
living in the valley near the McNabb.
and several of them had heard the ex-,
plosions."
"Did you have the tunnel guarded
at night?"
"No; I didn't reach any conclusion
about it until just as we had decided
to abandon the work. Yt'hen we be
gin again, as I expect to within a few
days I shall leave a watchman- up
there at night.
"The place will ask for a brave man
"I can find one," rejoined Ludlow
cheerfully. Don t you want the job?
"I'm afraid I shouldn't be of mucli
use; but I'll take it, if you say so."
Ludlow looked incredulous. "That
doesn't sound much like the line you
took this morning.
"No, I know it doesn't; but perhaps
I m a little like the man who wanted
a drink of whisky in order to ascer
tain what effect it would have on him.
I've tried moral suasion on my weak
ness until I'm convinced there's no
virtue in that kind of treatment, and ft
has occurred to me that a heroic dose
of carnage may be what is needed."
"It may be, but I shouldn't go around
hunting for the occasion if I were you,"
replied Ludlow, holding the gate open.
"Perhaps I'll have to," said Eing
brand, as they entered the house. "Pos
sibly the occasion will hunt me."
To be continued.
Horticultural Party.
Poets have eung the joys of winter
hospitality, when the enow storm roars
outside and the logs in the fireplace roar
inside, and the bright welcome is only
equalled by the bright cheer of happy
guests as they thaw their frozen mem
bers by the ingleside. We Oregonians
do not have any of these joys, but the
ladies who were the recipients of the
gracious hospitality of Mrs. French and
Mrs. J. W. Condon do not feel there was
anything missing. Great bowls of bril
liant tulips, vases of geraniums, banks
of pansies are very satisfactory substi
tutes for the winter ornaments of icicles
and snow banks. The floral decorations
of the beautiful parlors, in their profu
sion and grace, made one forget the stiff
wind outside.
The amusement of the afternoon,
aside from the merry talk, was decidedly
horticultural, and several of the guests
went home able to think of many more
names oi tree than they could when the
contest began. Mrs. Fish, owing to the
happy accident of the long straw, and
good guessing, was the fortunate recipi
ent of the prize, a potted "silk oak."
When next the Dalles ladies pass an ex
animation on their horticultural knowl
edge tuey will know that to be heard
talking of "cashew" is not a sure sign
one is taking la grippe.
