Chapter 25
MOTHER MOUNTAIN LODE
ttllHO Is this man, Colorado Bfll,
" Mr. Harrlgan!" asked Pierre.
"What does he look like?"
"WaL he's a fairish big man wld
grimly whiskers all over his face
older than ye'd guess and hard as
rock, and a cold, distrustful kind av
an eye. He drifted Into Red Butte
a few years back said he was from
Colorado and aimed to prospect this
country. Everybody calls him Colo
rado, and nobody ever asked him
any questions, which Is a handy
habit fer some av us as you your
aelf, I'm thtnkln', can testify."
Pierre Ignored the Irishman's
hint. "I can't Imagine how Bruce
came to know a man like that. It's
funny. If you ask me!"
" 'Tis right you are. me lad, and
there's a lot av things about the
whole business that's funny not
exceptln' yerself. Here ye come
right out av nowhere, to find a man
that nobody knows, who's gone oft
wld somebody that nobody knows,
to somewhere nobody knows where.
We've pounded the trail two days,
and camped one night, and divll a
word have ye said to let me know
about yourself.
" TIs all right, av course," said
Jimmle. "If It were not that I'm
gettln' to like ye, I wouldn't be
botherln'." N
For a moment Pierre looked Into
the older man's eyes, then, with a
helpless gesture, turned sadly away.
Presently he said: "Where Is this
Mother Mountain? Can we see it
from here?"
The old prospector went to stand
beside his young companion, say
ing: "I may as well be glvin' ye the
lay av the land so ye'll have It clear
tomorrow.
"That bunch of funny little round
hills away over there to the south
west Is the Biscuit Hills, where my
mine Is. 'Tis only a prospect now,
but it will be a mine some day. My
camp is one day go from where
we're standing. You can see the
trail startln' there. That, patch av
color that looks like fc-orasy-quilt,
beyond and a little to the south of
the Biscuit Hills. Is the Painted
Mountains where our friend Colo
rado Bill told me he was taking Mr.
Burnes, or Bruce, or whoever he Is.
"Now straight north, that blue
mountain risin' out of the desert
with two rounded peaks like a wom
an's breast is Mother Mountain,
where yer goin' to find Colorado
Bill and yer man Bruce Carey, If
ye don't meet thim comln' back.
Blackwator Tanks Is at the foot av
the mountain. As we're looking
'twould be right under the hollow
between the breasts. From here to
the Tanks Is a day and a half If you
don't go too slow. There Is always
water here at Drippin' Spring and
In the Biscuit Hills. Sometimes
there Is water at the Tanks. And,
except for these three places, there
Is never a drop av water In all this
land for many a hot mile.
"From Blackwater Tanks a man
might go on the far side of Skele
ton Peaks two days until he struck
the road which runs from Red Butte
north to Gold Center. Then It
would bo another day to Gold Cen
ter, or two days to Red Butte. But
no man In his right mind would ever
think av tryln' that route widout
hnrmn to carrv water. Ye can see
Skeleton Peaks to the east of
Mother Mountain."
"I see," said Pierre.
"Well, between Burnt Hlllo
which I showed you comln' across
the mesa from Red Butte to here
and them Skeleton Peaks is a low
lyln" bit of country we call Skeleton
Sink. There's r.s llvln' tping mat a
vor rone Into that hell-hole and
come out alive. Our desert Indians
i-nti It lh nlace of the dead.
"Thorn's not enough moisture
there t wet the tongue of a horned
tond."
As If In mentioning the route
Pierre would follow to Mother
Mountain he had approached a sub
ject upon which be did not wish to
dwell, the Irishman turned anrupuy
and beenn kindling the campnre.
But Pierre was caught In the aiw.ll
of the desert. "I can't make It seem
real," he said In a hushed voice.
"Gee. I wish Father Tonv mulrl
see this!"
"Father Tony!" Melalmwl tsA
Irishman. ' 'Tis a good lad va are
to be wishln' for a priest."
Pierre laughed. "Father Tonv la
not a priest, Mr. Harrlcan. He la
ou actor, i call him Fnther Tony
because he has always been like a
father to me. You should hear him
read 'All the world's a stage, and
all the men and women merely players'!"
As Pierre spoke with his best
stage voice and manner, Harrlgao
stood up and looked at his compan
ion witn new interest.
"By George!" Pierre exclaimed,
that's what's the matter with all
this." Pierre's sweeping gesture In
dicated their surroundings. "I knew
now why it s not real to me It's be
cause It's only a stage set Don't
you see, Mr. Harrlgan? the set
pieces and drop scenes and every
thing, like a stage scene. And you
and I and Bruce and Colorado Bill,
we are the actors." His eyes had
that look as If be were seeing things
his companion could not see, as he
said reverently: "And mother
mother Is standing there in the
wings."
The desert man turned to pre
pare their supper, but watched hla
companion with doubtful glances.
'Av It as to auess now about
what's none av my business, I would
say that ye do be a play actor yerself."
Pierre answered mechanically, "I
am. That Is, I was going to be an
actor. My mother was an actress.
I was on the stage with her when
I was little. She used to stand In
the wings when I played my parts.
I think she does it yet. She died
when I was only a boy.
"Mother thought I would . be a
great actor. I thought bo too. But
now, I'm nothing but a clerk in a
soda fountain."
"A soft drink bartender, heh?"
"I was ready to go to New York
to study for the stage. That was
what mother planned for me, but
Bruce Oh, well, that part of It is
all over now."
"This Father Tony's not your real
father, you ssy?" Inquired Harrl
gan, "and you have no kin to help
you out of this trouble?"
"Father Tony was Just a friend of
mother's. I haven't seen my own
father since I was a little chap. I
don't even know If he's living, I
have nobody but Father Tony and
Ann."
As If In speaking the name ot
Ann ho had aroused himself, he
cried, "I've simply got to find Bruce.
If I can get to him In time, every
thing may all come right yet."
((There me boy. 'Tis no good
losln' yer grip av yerself. Ye'll find
yer man tomorrow or next day.
Come now and put yerself outside a
good All av beans and bacon, wld
Java to wash It down. 'Tis food
that'll make the world look bright
er." For a while they ate In' silence,
as the sun dropped below the dis
tant mountains. The food and the
business of eating restored Pierre
to a less emotional state of mind
and presently he asked: "What do
you think Colorado and Bruce are
looking for, Mr. Harrlgan?"
" 'Tis mortal sura 1 am that
they're lookln" fer the lost Mother
Mountain lode."
"What is It they are looking for?"
"An' have ye never heard tell a
the lost lode of Mother Mountain?'
"But what Is this lode a load of
what?"
Again the Irishman laughed.
"Will you listen to' that your Ig
norance, me lad, Is as amazing as It
Is ridiculous. This lost. Mother
Mountain lode Is a big vein of gold
somewhere In Mother Mountoln.
Nobody knows where It Is, though
many, Includln' myself, had bad a
try fer to find It The reason It's
lost Is because the prospector who
discovered It gol himself lost in
Skeleton Sink. Some geologist
sharps prowlin' around on the edge
of the Sink found the poor prospec
tor's hones and a little bag full of
rich gold quam. and later another
prospector found what was left of
the poor rat's outfit at Blackwater
Tanks.
"The old prospector had found
this lode within striking distance
of Blackwater Tanks, and Colorado
and Bruce, if that's who be Is, must
have a danged good notion where it
Is, else why would Colorado go
Into that country this dry time av
year an' why would he lie to me like
he did about where they was goln'?"
(Ctr'il't ' 0 Melee Ce.)
"Proipectin fer troubla." That's
an irithman'a oD'ntin tomorrow
when Pierre's real -nation la r-
vealed.

This development Is one of (treat
Importance, and to my way of tin lin

I cannot impress upon the citi

the fact that this far-sighted move

considerable prestige to the program
