|fe? feiirt * Co py r i Dnle told Major Bradley and John Morelnnd of that which GofT had said to him at the Rate, The -major sug- i gested forthwith that he go to meet the man; it couldn't possibly do any ; harm, and there was a chance that he would learn something of Guff's In- 1 tent ions. ^ , So Dale went. , Guff was already tfiere, waiting. He was sitting on a '. ope on the Moreland side of the rhfer, whittling Idly. , When he .saw Dale approaching, he smiled and nodded, rose and pocketed his kulfe. "I want to make you an offer for that coal," he said at once. "All right," Dale replied. "If your offer is big enough, it will be consfd- , ered. But no shyster price ts going to get that coal, Goff." ' I Goff frowned uneasily. "You don't know coal, Mr. Dale. You don't know the business of mining?or I've got yoti sized up wrong. Thousands of men have gone busted trying to do things they weren't used to doing. There's n brg chance, too, that the coal isn't what it looks to be on the surface. You'd better take a sure thing, and avoid a possibility of loss. I'll give you five thousand, spot cash, for that coal." Dale shook his head. "You'll' have to come heavier than that, y'know, If you get the Moreland coal." "And an extra -thousand for yourself 1" Pale laughed a low, queer laugh. "You amuse me, Go(T," said lie. "Seems to me you've missed your calling in life. ,'Whnt a peach of a kingvillain you'd make in melodrama 1 You wouldn't have to act, either; you'd have to be Just your natural self. And you make me mad. too, Goff. Because I'm on the' square with the Morelands and everybody else?now, get that!" The comers of the shyster coal man's mouth came down. "Oh, bosh?don't pass me that virtue stuff. Every man has bis price, high or low. You've got yours, and , I've got mine. I'll give you five thousand, spot cash, if you'll persuade John Moreland to sell to me for five thousand, and nobody*!I ever know you got a Takedown from me. It's all the coal Is worth, that ten thousand. Well, yes?" Pale was of the type-that goes pale I with anger, and he was pale now. He I clenched his hands. "You can't insult me like that and get away with it, GolT," lie dipped. "We're going to fight, OofT, and I'm going to put a licking on you that fifteen horses can't pull off. Get me?" He threw aside his coat and rolled his sleeves to Ills elbows. Henderson (JofT ran his right hand quickly to a | rear trouser pocket and brought back a stub-nosed automatic pistol, which he turned threateningly toward Dill Dale. 1 ! "On easy, friend." OofT said very complacently. "There's no use In getting sore. I want the coal, that's all. If I can't get It hy fair means I'll got It In another way. Oh, I don't mind telling you; one man's oath Is as good In court as another man's. II you don't take tue up at ten thousand Til g've you so much trouble that you'll be ?lad to sell It to me later, for half that amount! The Halls think they own a hig interest in that coal! There's a lot or them, too, and they can keep you from working the mine. , Well, I can't waste time in dickering wllh you. What do you say?" "I say," and Dale smiled an odd lit- j tie smile, "that your plan appears to he perfect, except that you've overlooked one or two important details. For instance, there's the law, y'know." "The law?now don't go aud fool '"I'll,. couldn't afford to keep a hundred men here, month in and month out, just to protect your little mine. My patience Is about gone, L>ale?for the last time, " what do you say?" ? "1 say that I'll beat you at any game you put up against me," very quietly. "Furthermore, I say that you are a coward and a scoundrel, and that you haven't got the insides in you to tight me a fair man's fight. If you'll only pocket that thing you've got in your hand, I'll mow down halt' an acre of meadow bush with your hotly." The other turned red, then while, then red again. Kill I bile's words had lashetl hitu keenly. 1 lis eyes became like hard bl?ck beads, and he began to raise the wicked-looking pistol as though he meant to tire. Then there was the sound of a breaking twig behind him, and a voice drawled out: "Prap it, Mister?drap tile funny little gun, or the middle o* Tarment is yore po'tion right now 1" It was the moonshiner, By Heck, and his rille was leveled, (loll dropped the pistol, llcck grinned, advanced slowly, took tip the weapon mat tne hillfolk call a "coward's guh" and tossed it into tlio river. "Mow git?cat the mustard?light a rag away from here," lie ordered, "afore I let Mill Dale loose on ye!" Golt went away rapidly. "I wonder If you heard hltn say 1 r AKhfe v 4 ^ T i lapjbui'gLiebe ?

I Dale suiiled. Then he frowned. - CHAPTER IX. , If A Signal Victory. I The mining man Ilnyes, the major i and John Moreland were waiting at Hie gate when Dale, accompanied by i the moonshiner, returned to the cabin. Dale was the first to speak, lie told , brielly of that which had taken pi ice ; | at the blown-down sycamore, and at j ; the last of it By lleck straightened j . proudly. . "I be dadjlmmed ef I hadn't ha' pumped him so full o' lead 'at the' [ < couldn't enough o' men got around , him to tote off his corpst, ef ho hadn't i ha' drapped the coward's gun," I'.y i lleck declared as fiercely as lie could.

Now thar was my Uncle Bill, him what could jump a sixiern-rail fence ". "It was a nine-rail fence, By," Ini- J patiently cut in John Moreland. j "You've done told that so much 'at it's dang nigh wore out.

He knew they didn't want liiin to overhear what tlioy were going to say, hut it didn't offend hlin. ltl wasn't easy to offend tlie good-natured II eric. Moreland turned to Dale. "Well 7" Dale turned to Hayes. "We're going to begin the building of the little railroad at the eapHes; possible moment. And because 1 don't know anything about tl.e work, I'm going to ask you to lake ti e lead. Now, there may be some fighting. I don't want you to go Into this tiling blind- ' ly, yon ree. If you're gouig to with draw at all, do it now." "I'm not a stranger to lighting,'" 1 Have.'', replied smilingly. "I've boon through half a dozen coal strikes. 1 ' think you may count on me, .Mr. Dale." | "Tl en lay out u plait for Imincdlate action." "I'd suggest," nequieseed Iiaves, "that we si lid to the little town in the lowland lor a supply of picks and shove's, axes and -taws, hammers, drills, and explosives. In the meantime, you and I can stake out the way for the track." It sounded businesslike, Dale iiioii;;ih. Wiiiiin (lie li<>ur John Mot-eland anil his son Cah h started for Cartersville i>n foot, m:<l in (lie older man's pocket was motley stillieicnt to buy the tilings Hint were needed. Ihile and llayes set nut for the north <ml of 1 >a\<id Moreland's mountain, and eaeh of them carried a hand-as lor making stakes. * It was not often that the quiet llayes permitted himself to :;o into raptures over anything; however, he went into raptures over the Mot-eland coal. It was, lie do-Ian d, one of t*:e host propositions lie luul ever seen. It was no \vond<-r that Henderson Uoll was determined to net possession oi it, lie said. Tin n lliey \vi nt to woi k. Uv Mmdown two ih'ys later il.- y had j ? J ?? choscn'the route for Hie narrow-gauge railroad and set stakes accord ugly. Hayes told Ids general manager thai with a good: force of men the last rail could he nut down within two months. During those two days they had several times seen Henderson Hilt in company with lilack Adam Hall and Some of his relatives. Once they had come upon (Joll talking earnestly with Saul i/tttleford, the hig, hoarded, gaunt brother of the Uttleford chief. Hayes reminded Dale of this, and said to ' him further: "(JolT will have the Littleford? on his side the tirst thing you knowt | Maybe some of the l.ittlefords, as well ! us some ot the Halls, knew about this coal before David Moreland got Ids | mountain by state's grant at a few cents per ai re. If you'll take my advice, Mr. | Dale, you'll make friends of these two | sets Just as ijtilck as you can." Dale thrust Ills hand-ax inside his | belt and turi?d to the mining expert. | "D'yoti know, I was thinking of tliat I same tiling when you spoke," he replied. "And 1 believe 1 can manage it, now that Miss Llttleford's accidental i wounding lias given the old feud such j a big blow. I'm fairly sure 1 can man- j age it so far as Ben Littlcford Is con- j cerned; It's John that's going to be hard to bring to taw. lie should be home tills evening, it he's had good : luck, and I'll tackle him us souu as he j comes." Together they started across David 1 Morelund's mountain, walking rapidly, with Dale leading. Darkness came down on them when they had covered half the distance. The great hemlocks and poplars , loomed spectral and gaunt in the early 1 starlight. The almost Impenetrable J thickets of laurel and ivy \yhispered uncanny things, and their seas of pink und snowy bloom looked somehow ghostly. Now and then there was the pattering of sonic little animal's feet on the dry, hard leaves of bygone years. A solltr.ry brown owl poured \ out Its heart in wclrtl und melancholy , cries to the night it loved. There was , the faint, far-off haying of a hound, und the soft swish of a nlglithnwk'a wings. Men from the core of civilization must feel these things of the wilderness. . . . Suddenly Dale drew back and stood still. In the trail ahead, standing as motionless as the trees about him, wuh% tlie tall figure of a man. It was almost , us though ho were there to bar Hit way. The two went on slowly. The figure j iidn't move. Dale spoke, and the form came to life, it was I5y Heck; lie was caning on the muzzle ot his rille. "It's you, Is it, Dill, old boy?" lie j yawned sluggishly. "1 was n-waititi' Here fo' you. 1 reckon 1 must ha'J went to sleep n-standin' hero on my Feet I I've got news, Bill." "Out with It." "I've been a-trallin' Henderson (Jolt ill day," ileek said In guarded tones, lie's 'shore got them iowdowii Dalls : to bclieviu' they're already million- i tuilr.V "i know that," said Dale. "That's not news." "But that ain't all," By Ileek wml in. "(Jon's got Saul Llttlcford, too? | lock, stock, har'l-and sights. He owns Saul jest the same as 1 own my old spotted 'coon dawg Dime.

When the evening meal was owi j Dale drew John Morelund out to the cabin yard, where, the many old-lash j loued Mowers made the night air sweet with their blended odors, for a mm ! ment Dale stood looking toward the1 very bright stars and thinking; then ; tie told the hig man at tiis side ol I t:oil's plan concerning the Mttlefords.; and strongly urge# the making ol 1 friendship between the two clans. ,MJ'lie snake!" mumbled John More-' land. lit appeared to he worried about it lie folded his arms, walked to the gate ' and Lack to Dale without uttering an other word. It was hard for him throw down completely the hatred of years upon years, llad It been any ! other person than Dili Dale, a lighter j after Ids own heart, who had asked , it, he never would have even conskl- j ered It; he would have said quickly; ! "We'll thrash the Halls and the Littlefords, too!" The younger man read something of the other's thoughts. "With the help of the law," said he, "we might whip them all. Hut it would mean a great deal of bloodshed j ut best. The Littlefords are Halm's people, y'know. I like Babe. You like her, too, or you never would have gone with her to the hospital?now don't yon?" "I reckon I enin't deny," the Moreland lender muttered, "'at I like Itabe Llttleford. siio Min t like none o tin?, rest of 'em, Hill."

I The Stor y of I I Our States ! By JONATHAN BRACE I * XXXV.?W. VIRGINIA ! As TfIE I f vA *1 name im- ? I /yyjfcp , p,Ics' ^ est * t i~*5 Virginia was | originally a i f .portion of ? i Virginia, the j 0I(1 |)0mjnl0n | I Colony. While its history is oat- f t tirally yoked up with that of the I Mother State, there are many points In which the two sections of Virginia were divergent and it was for this reason that West Virginia finally became a sepurate state. The fiist white man who probably penetrated the wilderness of tiiis Western region was John Laderer, a German surgeon, who , went on a tour of exploration in IGtl'J. In the same year. La Salle sailed up the Ohio and landed i at several points in the present f state. There was little colonlza tion until 17112, when Scotch and j Irish adventurers began to till f Western Virginia. They were | encouraged but little, and, in t fact, tiie King in 1783 declared | Hint this part of the colony was ,, ? Indian country and could not || I rightfully'be settled. Colontza * tion continued, however, and bit- ! I tor warfare was waged against ? f tho Indians and the French who I I had come down from the North. ? f In 1774 the battle of I't. I'leasant ; i was fought, which was one of ? I the bloodiest of Indian conflicts. ? f The 'backwoodsmen who set- ; I tied in the Western part of Vir" einia were entirely different I! types of men from the wealthy ' slave owners along the toast. Jealousies between the two sections arose and the Western countries felt great dlssatisfaction at the way Virginia was governing them. The most | II marked point of disagreement was over the shivery question, II and St was because of this that, when Virginia seceded from the I I Union in 1S(?1, West Virginia |" took matters in its own hands. Delegates met at Wheeling, drew up a separate constitution, and declared tin ir independence. Their application for admission into the Union was accepted by II Lincoln, and in 1S03 West Vir 4 j;ii:ia became the thirty-fifth I | state. f ? It is often called the "ran- I ? handle State" on account of its 4 I shape. Its area is 24.17U square " f miles, and it has eight presiden- *? I tlyl electors. * (?byilcCluro Newrpaper Syndicate.) * .t, , j'l " Yhtry was little he i?!? tit ;is I drov j>::uv:iy in* tlu* k?en air of dawn, .fn | Hi/ r.ifrhts had hem- chilly.
