Third Installment of Great
Serial Story
Picture
CAST
Harry Wilkerson Harry Carter
James Gallon Wilbur 'Hitfhy
Ruth Gallon Ella Hall
John Dore Robert Leonard
Story by John Fleming Wilson
Hounded by Wilson, Gallon is made
to believe that his former partner is a
real being and not an apparition. It
is this knowledge that breaks the
spirit of Gallon and prepares him for
death. Wilkerson compels Gallon to
employ him as superintendent in the
mines. It is the last straw; Gallon
sinks fast, and as his life is about to
flicker out, his dnughter, John Dore,
and the old cook are gathered in the
death room. Supported in Ruth's
arms, Gallon writes his last will. It
reads:
"I leave all my property to my
daughter, Ruth, to come into her full
possession on her eighteenth birthday.
I direct her never to let go of the Mas
ter Key which will make my little
girl happy. I direct that my daughter
keep Harry Wilkerson as superin
tendent until she is eighteen. I ap
point as executor of this, my last will
and testament, John Dore.
When Gallon dies, Dore finds in the
desk, n sealed envelope, addressed to
him, which reads, "To be opened on
if her welfare is threatened." It is
hard for Ruth and Dore to appreciate
all that has and is happening; much
of it is a mystery to them. Vaguely
they realize that Gallon had a dread
of Wilkerson, that ho had evidently
wronged him, and that Wilkerson, in
turn, has a mission of vengeance.
At the "Master Key" mine matters
come to a crisis when Wilkerson,
now in full charge, posts a notice to
the effect that "After this day all wa
ges in this mine will be reduced 25
percent." the man is after much mon
ey as much as he can get. He also
sees that Dore is a stumbling block to
his schemes. Of an afternoon Dore
interferes when Wilkerson knocks a
miner down. It is an excuse for Wil
kerson firing him as mine engineer.
Following this move the miners de
cide to strike. Wilkerson's domineer
ing manner has earned the dislike of
every one, of them. There is a fight
in the oflice between Wilkerson and
an old miner. The formdr draws a
gun and is only prevented from shoot
ing the miner by the timely appear
ance of Dore. Hut the incident is suf
ficient for the rough miners to soeV
Wilkerson's life. They secure a rope
and prepare to lynch him.
Hecause of Ruth because he can
not see murder done even in the heat
of pussion, Dore goes to the defenso
of the cornered rat. Standing on a
box, he tells the miners in a few, brief
words the exact situation so far ns he
is concerned, begs them not to risk
Ruth's property. For a time the men
listen and then they seem to get out
of hand. Ruth climbs upon the box
besides her sweetheart and joins her
own appeal to his. And this proves
successful as far as the life of Wilk
erson is concerned.
Hut the strike, it must lie ended.
Wilkerson realized this if he hoped
to continue the mine in operation and
get more money; his life would be
threatened at any moment so long as
the strike lasted. It is a bitter pill
to swallow but Wilkerson announces
to the men that the former scale of
wages will bo again put in force and
that John Dore will be appointed sup
erintendent of the mine. He is read)
to bide his time for revenge.

BIG QUERY FOR TIES RECEIVED
Boston Concerns Want Quotation on
.10,000,000 Feet of Railroad material
Portland lumbermen have been put
in an optimistic mood on learning
that an inquiry by wirehad come from
Boston for quotations and deliveries
on aO.000,000 feet of railroad ties.
If the inquiry develops into a pur
chase order, it will mean a revival of
business on the coast in the
filling the order. 11,000,000 feet of
ties wore recently contracted for by
Charles R. McCormick & Co. of St.
Helens for delivery at San Francisco
for the Denver and Rio Grande railroad.
Cheese Outfit Received
The Coquillo Valley Creamery has
just received a complete cheesemak
ing outfit. If the prices warrant it
this year, they will make cheese. T.
B. Klock, of Seattle, who was recently
in town, says that he thinks the price
on cheese will be high enough so that
this creamery can sell it to good ad
vantage. Mr. Klock handles all the
butler and chese that is shipped from
the creameries on the river and on the
bay side.
During the month of January the
Coquillo creamery paid three and u
half cents more for butter fat than
was paid in Humboldt county during
that month. Coquillo Herald.

BOYS AND BREWERIES
A man was trying to convince an
other that because of tho vested inter
ests involved the people had no right
to close the breweries. His friend an
swered thus: "I have three boys. By
the time I graduate them from col
lege they will have cost me about ten
thousand dollars each. Every inter
est of the brewery and everything
that the brewery stands for is dia
metrically opposed to and threatens
tho investment that I have made in
my boys. No doubt the brewer has
more than thirty thousand invested
in his plant, but I am going to safe
guard my own interests first. I shall
vote dry within ten minutes after the
polls open if I can get my ballot in by
that time. Selected.
