While tie was Kttendlng little
gronp of customem t had wandered to
ward tbo back of the store,' curiously
examining the thousand and one com
modltle which supplied 'the strange
needs of humanity here ln this lost
corner of the world; and, thus oecu
pled, I was diverted by voice like
sudden music, a voice oddly rich and
laughing and confident for uch grim
and sinister surrounding. It was one,
too, which I seemed to have heard be
fore, and not so very long ago. When
I turned In Its direction I was Immedi
ately arrested, as one always Is by
any splendor of vitality ; for a startling
contrast Indeed to the spiritless, fur
tive figures that hud been coming and
going hitherto whs this superb young
creature, tnll and lithe, with proudly

carried head on glorious shoulder.
Her skin was a K"lleit olive, and It
bad bis-n herd to suy which whs the
more Intensely black her bnlr. or the
prmid eyes which, turning prewntly In
my direction, seamed to strike Un
me as with an actual liniyict of eoft
Ore. '
My presence seemed at once to put
her on her guard. The music of her
voice was suddenly bushed, at thoiiKli
she had hurriedly, almost in terror,
thrown robe of reticence about an
Impulsive naturalness not to be dls-
played before strangers. As for tbe
storekeeper, he was evidently a fa
miliar acquaintance. He bad known
her he said after she was gone
since she was a little girl.
While he oke, my eyes had awl-
lentally fallen on the coin still In his
nand, with which she had just paid
him.
"Why," I said, "thU I a Squish
Oouhloon I"
That's what it Ib." said the English
man luconlntlly.
"But doesn't It strike you as strange
that she should pay her bills with
Spnnleh doubloous?" I asked.
"It did at first," lie answered; and
then, as If annoyed with himself, he
wa attempting to retrieve an expres
sion that carried an Implication he evi
dently dUln't wish me to retain, he
added : "Of course, she doesn't always
pay In Spanish doubloons. I suppose
they have a few old coins In the fam
ily and use them when they run out of
others."
It was as lame au explanation as
well could be, und no one could doubt
that, whatever his reason for so doing,
he was lying.
"But haven't you trouble In dispos
ing of them?" I Inquired.
"Gold is always gold," he answered,
"and we don't see enough of It here to
be particular as to whose head Is
stnmped upon It, or what date. Be
sides, as I snld, it Isn't ns If I gut many
of them ; and you can always dlnpose
of them as curbwltlea."
"Will you sell me this one?" I asked.
"I see no harm In your having It," he
snld. "but I'd Just as soon you didn't
mention where you got It."
"Certainly," I answered, disguising
my wonder at bis secretlveuess. "What
ts it worth?"
He named the sura of sixteen dol
lars and soventy-flve cents. Having
paid him that nmount I bade blra
good-night, glnd to be alone with my
eager, glowing thoughts. These I took
with me to n hit of coral beech; made
doubly white by the moon, rustled
over by giant palms, and whispered to
by tbe .vast living Jewel of the sea. I
took out my atrnnge doubloon and
flashed It in the moon.
. ,lut, brightly as it shone, It hardly
seemed us bright as it would have
seemed a short while back; or, per
haps, It were truer to sny that In an
other, newer aspect it shone a hun
dred times, more brightly. The adven
ture to which It called me was no
longer single and simple as before, but
a gloriously confused goul of cloudy
splendors, the burning core of which
suddenly raying out, and then lost
again ln brightness were the eyes of
a mysterious girl.

PORTLAND, Feb. 6. Work on five
highways was mapped out at a meet
ong of the state highway commission
today .Tbe traffic lanes considered
were the Pacific, Columbia, McKenzle,
The Dalles-California and the Baker-
Cornucopia highways. ,
The commission ordered paved the
last unsurfaced gap on the Pacific
highway between Portland and Sa

between Canby and Aurora. Bids on
this job will be called for at the
March meeting and by state ta,'r time
the highway between the .metropolis
and the capital should be completely
hardsufraced.
Receiving an offer from Mult
nomah county of $85,000 for the
Mount Hood loop, If the commission
would match this sum, the commis
sion dictated a letter to Multnomah
county stating that the Btate and
governmen will meet Multnomah's
$85,000 with $170,000 Joint. At the
same time State Highway Engineer
Nunn was ordered at once to select
the cheapest route he can find be
tween Zigzag and the Multnomah
county line.

Irreconcilable Republican senators

A canvass of the senate has shown
the "bitter enders," they said "any

The "irreconcilab'.es" are eonvfneed

thi, respect, be declared, and are
visibly weakening since President
Wilson' letter to Senator Hitchcock
