CHAPTER XIV Continued.
The northilderi guarded tbelr traps.
It il believed that with the approach
of night the southslderi would steal
upon the trapi In squads and attempt
their destruction. The trouble had
been too long brewing to give up after
one alight engagement. The fishermen
on both aide felt that principle was
involved and they were there to settle
it by might. The gillnetteri declared
that the trapa were gradually destroy
ing the run of fish while the trappers
claimed that the gillnets were doing
greater harm to the industry than the
trapa. The men had spent their lives
fishing, the support of their families
depended upon It, and it was truly a
Vital Issue with them.
The run of fish was getting lighter
very year and whatever the fault
might be it was evident that the In
dustrv would soon become a thing of
the past. It was natural that both
idee should strike hard now as each
respectively oonsidered that the other
was the eause of the dying industry.
The shore people bad communicated
with the men on the water several
time daring the day. The women had
prepared meals and sent them out by
the boy of the village to a number of
the men. But the fishermen were bad
ly scattered and many ot them went
without meals.
Bankala bad made many inquiries
for Dan Lapham but he had not been
seen since the departure of the boats
from the north shore.
He bad led the way and given direc
tions fci the men to follow. But no
one who had come ashore could give
any tldinea of the vouns fisherman
Bankala bad prepared two meals and
sent them out by the boys but they
were unable to find him.
When night came still there was no
tidings from the young fisherman
The girl could endure it no longer
Bhe prepared enough lunch for siege
and slipped away to the beach unob
served. Bhe knew that if Tan had not
been killed or captured, he would be
found near his trap at the lower end
of the bay.
The night was very dark, and a
storm was brewing, but she believed
that she could make it to his trap be
fore it grew too dangerous.
Bhe tried the fishing boat but hor
strength was not sufficient to launch
it. Then she drew srrall skiff to
the water's edge. It would not live in
heavy storm, but Bankala knew that
if she eould reach Dan his strong arms
would bring her safely ashore again.
The roar of the surf on the bar was
already distinct. An occasional white
cap leaped above the murky horizon to
the southwest. Dark, misty clouds
obscured the last star. The wind was
already moaning in the boughs of the
tall fir on the bills.
Bankala shoved the light craft into
the water, and, guided by the interval
flashes from Cape Disappointment
light house, she pulled toward the foot
of the rocks where lay the fish trap
tended by Dan Lapham.
CHAPTER XV.
Rescued by the Enemy.
An accident had befallen Dan Lap
bam in the early morning engagement,
In the rush for boats before it wan
till daylight tie had taken the flint
one he came to. He led the way to the
place where he exiected to find the
aouthsiders, and was followed by the
long array of northside fishermen in
their boats.
He was far In advance of the other
fishermen, expecting to locate the ene
my and then await the airival of his
colleagues and assist them In the at
tack.
Before a single shot was fired and be
fore daylight began to dawn Dan came
to grief In a most unexpected manner.
The river biought with it all kinds of
driftwood from above. The fishermen
were constantly on the lookout for
this, for large logs, famous the world
over for their length and siie, often
com down with a speed and force
sufficient to crush a river steamer, and
the small craft of the fishermen would
stand no more show before these than
would an egg shell.
But It was not one of these that
caused Dan trouble. It is the con
cealed from which most harm comes
in all of the experiences of life. It is
the hidden that takes man unawares
nd dashes his hope to pieces or frus
trate his plans at the most unex
pected moment. We may battle with
the open enemy with hope of success,
but the one in ambush takes us at a
disadanUge and destroys or Is victor-
ions over as before we are even prepar
ed for defense.
Dan was keeping sharp lookout
foi the enemy. He knew the plana of
the aouthsiders and expected to in
teroept them before they should di
vide up into squads. While there
was still none In sight he was sending
hi frail old cralt like a cutter through
the water. An old snag was Blowly
beating its way with the current and
tide to the ocean. It was one of those
heavy, pitchy fir trunks whose weight
kept it deep in the water. Only a few
inehe of a knot, dark as the water
itself, projected above the surface, and
the thing stood like a rock directly in
front of the fisherman s boat.
Unconscious of its presence he sent
th old craft against it with a terrific
weep 01 me oars ana the result were
as sudden as a flash. The boat was al
ready running deep In the water from
the weight of the sea which it had
taken from below, and when Its rotten
hull struck the snag it was practically
lorn asunder.
It went down like a rock, and the
young fisherman had either of two al
ternative. One was to take refuge by
dinging to the cause of his disaster
nd the other was to swim for the is
land. But there was no time to waste un
der inch condition. At soon as he
had recovered from the shock which
ImbI oat aim deep below the surface he
arose and swam for the snag which
danced about for a moment, after its
contact with the boat, like a top.
He clung to this for several mo
ments when be discovered that it was
taking a course ranging farther from
the island and heading directly for
Disappointment rocks. The experi
enced fisherman knew what this
meant. Raising his head as high as
be could above the surface of the water
he sighted the dark outline of the near
est point on Band island as marked by
the accumulated driltwood, taking
Tillamook lighthouse for hi guide,
and (warn in a southwesterly direction.
Dan Lapham was good swimmer
and was strong and experienced, but
the water was cold and the current
pulled at him like thing of life
Hatthng to keep from being drawn to
Disappointment rocks and at the same
time to gain the nearest point of the
Island he soon found it telling upon
his strength.
Benumbed and exhausted he felt
that ease coming over him which is
never experienced except under certain
conditions. He had heard men rescued
from drowning, tell of this sensation.
ne anew si once wnai 11 meant, tils
strokes grew weaker, and In spite of
the fact that a consciousness came over
him that he wa gradually giving
away he felt a certain amount of reliel
that is said to always come to the per
lulling n.an in his last momenta a dix
ty, lulling feeling that make death
rather welcome than appalling.
A dull bussing sound entered hi
ears. Ilia limbs moved a if in a
dream. The water seemed freed all at
once from it chill. The darkness
gainerea more aeeipy out it was as
gentle as the shadow of deep. The
waves rocked him a smoothly as i
babe in a cradle. '
"Hankalal" he spoke. "Bankala
It cannot he I I cannot leave you. I
must not surrender. Arm and legi
you have never failed me. Heait, send
forth that blood you owe to Bankala
and revive tbi body to battle the waves
and live for the poor, unfortunate or
phan girll"
witna spasmodic eriort he arose
from his sinking attitude. He shot
forth his limb wito forced and awk
ward motion. It wa then that Dan
Lapham discovered the weakness of
will power compared with the grip of
fate. He saw that youth, strength,
determination, must all yield to the in
evitable.
But the aame fate that had carried
him to the border of the dark shadow
now threw a straw within his reach.
A daik solid object grated against his
side. He was caught by it and carried
along at a slow but steady rate of speed.
tie reached out bis band and clasped
the limb of a tree. One of the (alien
monarchs of the upper country had
been caught in the flood and wa being
can led to the ocean.
Lapham dragged himself upon Its
branches and closed his benumbed
hand upon two of them that be might
not be swept away. Thus, exhuasted
and In a semi-conscious condition, he
lay upon the drift, which was pursuing
Its course toward the ocean.
"Steer clear of that drift mate,"
exclaimed a nmn'i voice, low and
husky.
Five men were seated In a boat.
Four of them were lying upon their
oars. The fifth was steering the craft.
The men were merely using their oars
to keep the boat from drifting seaward
and the steersman was holding ber
along side the current. While the men
held the oars in their bands long, black
guns lay across their lap.
It win the advance guard of the
southsiilers. They were in waiting for
the approach of the northside fisher
men. A slight redness above the heli
um to the east Indicated that morning
was approaching. The men had been
watching for the approach of the north
sideia for several moments. They
were the lower guards, who expected to
apprehend the fishermen of the traps
in the lowet bay. A large log with
branche extending In many directions
had almost run into them. Bo dark
was the night that it had approached
them very closley before they saw it.
It was this that had called for the com
mand to the steersman.
"There is a man aboard that drift 1"
exclaimed one of the men, "Tie on to
the drift," eaid the leader.
One of the men grabbed a branch of
the drift and the boat and log floated
along together.
"the man's dead," remarked one of
the fishermen as he came near the ob
ject. "Bring him aboard, anyway,"
said the leader, "and we will bury him
on the sand spit."
Then the fishermen raised Dan Iap
ham from his place on the drift, fairly
prying his clinched hands from the
branches of the tree, and laid him in
the boat at their feet.
CHAPTER XVI.
Daring the Element.
"Give him a drop of whisky
not dead by any means."
He ii
"Raise him up light in, boys, and
i ub him I He la one ot old Bearing's
slaves, but he Is human and we will
treat him as such."
Thus sioke the men who had rescued
Dan Lapham from the floating timber.
They worked with him sometime be
fore he was restored to a thoiongh con
sciousness. The men knew him well
and treated him kindly, though they
now regarded him a a legitimate
"prisoner of war."
Lapham wa favorably known by all
of the fishermen and boatmen ot the
river. His extraordinary strength gave
him piominence among the toiler of
the river, while his courage and kind
ness gained tor him their respect.
The half-drowned fisherman received
the same cate and attention as would
one of their own number. One shared
a dry vest with him; another had an
extra rain coat and with this garment
and that he was loon warmly clad, and
with youth and reviving strength be
was sooa himself again.
But the scenes were rapidly shifting.
Dawn was breaking and the approach
of the norttisiders had been discovered.
The boats began to line up for the cap
tuie of the fishermen from the north
side who were supposed to be ignorant
of the presence of the southsidnis.
Dan Lapham was placed in a peculiar
position, but one common in war. He
was to sit side by side with the enemy
and receive the fire of his friends. He
knew what his companions in tlta boat
did not know. He knew that the north
side fishermen were armed, and that
they would come prepared to do war
unto death, He knew that he would
soon be subjected to their fire and that
they would shoot to kill.
Closer and still closer the northsid-
ers approached. They lined up through
the gloom of dawn like so many speck
on the river and bay. The southsider
lay upon their oar with gun in band.
To row down upon them and capture
them at a given signal was the pre
viously arranged plan.
The keen whistle of small launch
rang out over the water from the head
of the southside flotilla and the llttlt
fleet moved to the north under th
steady strokes of the oarsmen.
"Bingt" rang out a rifle shot from
the north side.
"Bingt Bingl fiing!" followed
succession of shots from the same di
rection. The aouthsiders were taken complete
ly by sui prise. They had come to
capture, not to fight, but now that the
trouble was on, it wa left to them to
fight or to flee. The bitter feeling to
long existing between the two stubborn
factions would not permit the latter
alternative, and as If fro" common
command, the aouthsiders rained their
rifles and poured forth a volley In the
direction of their competitor. Thl
was returned by heavy volley from
the north tide, and then a desultoiy
flring.began all along the line.
The fishermen were not accustomed
to the use of fire arms nor this manner
of warfare and it was-better for them
that they were not. After the second
volley the member of each contending
element began to fall back and the
Doata scattered in every dircetion.
But neither aide would abandon the
stiuggle. It was the purpose of the
southsiders to destroy the trapa, while
it was the determination of the north
siders to defend them to the last.
At the very first volley from the north
a rifle bullet stiuck the fisherman di
rectly in front of Dan Lapham, the
very man who had aided in resuscitat
ing their captive. He was wounded in
the aide and fell Into Dan' arm. Dan
begged them to pull for the island that
the wounded man might receive better
care. His request was granted, for the
fishermen now were anxious for an ex
cuse to get out of a fight that was ac
much more real than they had ex
pected. (To ts continued)
Don't Grit Your Teeth.
"No teeth to fill," the dentist said to
the man in the chair, "but you are
grinding off your teeth more than you
ought to. Do you grit your teeth in
your sleep 1"
And the man sntd he didn't stay
awake long enough to know about that,
but were they much ground off T
"More tliau they ought to be at your
age," suld the dentist. "You have
worn the eniiuiel off from aome of
them and got down to the dentlue.",
"What's going to happen?" asked
the victim.
"Why, If you keep on grinding
them off," said the dentist, "the teeth
will hollow out and we'll have to put
plugs in them with gold tops to give
them new grinding surfaces."
This wasn't a very pleasant pros
pect, so later the mini sought to as
certain for himself whether he did grit
his teeth unduly. And while be was
still unable to atny awake long enough
to find out, be did discover that he had
a habit nt times of gritting hie teeth In
his waking momenta, when he sat back
from his work to think of something,
for Instance. And lie made up his
mind thut he would stop that, anyway,
and he hoped that he might thus (top
grinding his teeth In Ills sleep, if he
did so grind them. For, fine as they
might be, he didn't wnut any of those
nice little gold-cupped plugs put In bis
teeth If he could help It New York
