THE STORY OF A MINE.
By BBET HABTE
[Copyright'd, 1880, by Houghton, Mifflin & Co., and
published by arrangement with them.]
CHAPTER XII.
A HACK FOR IT.
OYAL
‘Shy Ann,’ strapped to the l*ck seat, and
ravin’ and cussin’ at Ben Holliday, the gen
tlemanly proprietor.” It is presumed that
the unfortunate tourist’* indignation was ex
cited at the late Mr. Benjamin Holliday, then
fie proprietor of the line—on evidence of his
insanity that ly one who know that large-
hearted, fastidious and elegantly-cultured
Californian, since allied to foreign nobility,
win for a moment doubt.
Mr. Royal Thatcher was too old and expe
rienced a mountaineer to do aught but accept
patiently and cynically his brother Califor
nian's method of increasing his profits. As it
was generally understood that any one who
came from California by that nuto had some
dark design, the victim received little sym
pathy. Thatcher’s equable temperament and
indomitable will stood him in good stead, and
helped him cheerfully in this emergency. lie*
ate his scant meals, and otherwise took care of
the functions of his weak human nature, when
and where he could, without grumbling, and
at times earned oven the praise of his driver
by his ability to “rough it.” Which “tough
ing it,” by the way, meant the ability of the
passengers to accept the incompctency of the
company. Jt is true there weit* times when he
regretted tliat he had not taken the steamer;
hut then he reflected that he was one of a
»vigilance committee, sworn to hang that ad
mirable man, the late Commodore Cornelius
Vanderbi t, for certain practices and cruelties
done upon the bodies of certain steerage pas
sengers by his line, and for divers irregulari
ties in their transportation. I mention this
fact merely to show ho v so practical and
stout a voyager as Thatcher might have con
founded the perplexities attending the admin
istration of a great steamship company with
selfish greed and brutality; and that he, with
other Californians, may not have known the
fact, since recorded by the commodore’s fam
ily clergyman, that the great millionaire was
always true to the hymns of his childhood.
Nevertheless, Thatcher found time to lie
cheerful and helpful to his fellow passengers,
and even to bo so far interesting to “Y uba
Bill,” the driver, as to have the box seat placed
at his disposal. “But,” said Thatcher in some
concern, “the box seat was purchased by that
other gentleman in Sacramento. He paid ex
tra for it, and his name's on your way bill!”
“That,” said Yuba Bill, scornfully, “don’t
fetch me, even ef ho chartered the whole she
lving. L6ok yar, do you reckon I’m goin to
spile xjiy temper by setting next to a man
with a game eye? And such an eye! Ge-
whillikins! Why, darn my skin, the other
day when we were watering at Webster’s, he
got down and passed in front of the off leader
—tliat yer j>itito colt that’s tin accustomed to
Injins, grizzlies and buffalo—and I'm bless ef,
when her eye tackled his, ef she didn't jlst git
up and rar round that I reckoned I’d hev to
go dgwn ami take them blinders off from her
eyes and clap on his. }1 “But be paid his
money, and is entitled to his seat,” persisted
Thatcher. “MebbeTie is—in the office of the
kempeny,” growled Yuba Bill; “but it’s time
some folks knowed that out in the plains
I run this yer team myself.” A fact which
was self-evident to most of the passengers.
“I suppose his authority is as absolute on this
dreary waste as a ship captain’s in mid
ocean,” exclaimed Thatcher to the baleful
eyed stranger. Mr. Wiles—whom the reader
has recognized—assented with the public side
of his face, but looked vengeance at Yuba
Bill with the other, while Thatcher, innocent
of the pi-esencc of one of his worst enemies,
placated Bill so far us to restore Wiles to his
rights. Wiles thanked him. “Shall I have
the pleasure of your company far?” Wiles
asked, insinuatingly. “To Washington,” re
plied Thatcher, frankly. “Washington is a
gay city during the session,” again suggested
the stranger. “I'm going on business, said
Thatcher, bluntly.
A trifling incident occurred at Pine Tree
Ci ossing which did not heighten Yuba Bill’s
admiration of the stranger. As Bill opened
the double locked box in the “boot” of the
coach—sacred to Wells, Fargo & Co.’s express
and the Overland company’s treasures—Mr.

that man whose seat you’ve got,” said Yuba
Bill, who, for insulting purposes of his own,
preferred to establish the fiction that U’iles
was an interloper, “and ef he reckons, in g
sorter mixed kempeny like this, to lock up
his port mantle, I don't know who’s business

into a simulated rage, “who in blank is run

ER worked hard.
That the boyish
little painter who
shared his hospital
ity at the “Blue
Mass” mine qfrould
afterward have lit
tle part in his ac
tive life seemed not
inconsistent with
his habits. At present the mine was his only
mistress, claiming his entire time, exasperat
ing him with fickleness, but still requiring
that supreme devotion of which his nature
was capable. It is possi&e that Miss Carmen ‘
saw tins too, and so set about with feminine
tact, if not to supplement, at least to make
her rival less pertinacious and absorbing.
Apart from this object, she zealously labored
in her profession, yet with small pecuniary
result, I fear. Ixical art was at a discount In
California. The scenery of the country had
not yet become famous; rather it was re
served for a certain eastern artist, already
famous, to make it so; and people cared little
for the reproduction, under their very noses,
of that which they saw continually with their
own eyes and valued not So that little Mistress
Carmen was fain to divert her artist soul to
support her plump little material body; and
made divers excursions into the regions of
ceramic art, painting on velvet, illuminating
missals, decorating china, and the like. I
ha^e in my poneasion some wax flowers—u
startling fuchsia and a bewildering, dahlia—
•old for r incro pittance by this little lady,
pictures lately took the prize at a
foreign exhibition, shortly after she had been
half starved by a California public, and
claimed by a California press as its fostered
child of genius.
Of these struggles and triumphs Thatcher
had no knowledge; yet he was perhaps more
startled than he would own to himself when,
one December day, he received this dispatch:
“Come to Washington at once.—Carmen
De Haro.”
“Carmen De Haro!” I grieve to state that
such was the preoccupation of this man,

afterwards running away from him, came
back at last to his memory, he was at first
mystified and then self reproachful. He had
been, he felt vaguely, untrue to himself. He
hail lwen remiss to the self-confessed daughter
of his enemy. Yet why should she telegraph
to him, and what was she doing in Washing-
ton ? To all these speculations it is to be said
to his credit tliat he looked for no sentimental
or romantic answer. Royal Thatcher was
naturally modest and self-depreciating in his I «*“*» “P ■>“ '»* «vat, you are.

where a woman has to do half the wooing,

In his bewilderment Tliatcher had over
looked a letter lying on his table. It was
from his Washington lawyer. The eonclud-

But bora Thatcher, who, with something of
Laucelot’s concern for Modred, hail a noble
pity for al[ infirmities, interfered so sternly
that Yuba Bill stopped.
On the fourth day they struck a blinding
snow storm while ascending the dreary pla
teau that henceforward Cor GO) miles was to
be their roadbed. The horses, after flounder
ing through the drift, gave out completely on
reaching the next station and the prospects

with his lawyer that she was in any way con
nected with his enemies; ho trusted to her
masculine loyalty that far. But here was
aomething vaguely dangerous to the feminine
mind—position, flattery, power. Ho was al
most as firmly satisfied now that he had been
wronged and neglected as he hail been posi
tive a few momenta before that be had been
remiss In his attention. The irritation, al
though momentary, was enough to decide this
strong man. He telegraphed to Bon Fran
cisco; and, having missed the steamer, se-
character, and take advantage of another
man’s experience. “Them that wants to stop
kin do so,” said Bill authoritatively, cutting
the Gordian knot; “them as wants to take a
sledge can do so, thar’s one in the barn.
Them as wants to go on with me and the
relay will come on.” Mr. Wiles selected the
sledge and a driver, a few remained for the
next stage, and Thatcher, with two others,
decided to accompany Yql»a Bill. These
changes took up some valuable time; aud the
storm continuing, the stage was run under
the shed, the passengers gathering around the
station fire; ami not until after midnight did
Yuba Bill put in the relays. “I wish you a
Yuba BUI wat on the road in an instant
ominous lurch on one side, and the off fore
wheel litw off in the darkness. Bill threw
the horses back on their hactnchca; but before
their momentum could be checked, the near
hind wheel sloped away, the vehicle rocked
violently, plunged back Wards and forwards,
and stopped.
Yuba Bill was on the road in an instant
with his lantern. Then followed an outbreak
of profanity which I regret, for artistic pur-
ixwcs. exceeds that generous limit which a
sympathizing public has already extended to
me in the explication of character. Let me
state, therefore, that in a very few moments
he succeeded in disparaging the characters of
his employers, their male and female relative*,
the coach builder, the station keeper, the road
on which he traveled, ami the travelers them
selves, with occasional broad expletives ad
dressed to himself and his owm relatives. For
the spirit of this ami a more cultivated i>oetry
of expression, I beg to refer the temperate
reader to the Third chapter of Job.
The passengers knew Bill, and sat, conser
vative, patient, ami expectant As yet the
cause of the catastrophe was not. known. At
last Thatcher’s voice came from the box seat:
“What’s up. Bill?”
“Not a blank lynch pin in the .whole blank
2oach,” was the answer.
There was a dead silence. Yulia Bill exe
cuted a wild war dance of helpless rage.
“Blank the blank enchanted thing to
blank!”
(I beg here to refer the fastidious and culti
vated reader to the only adjective I have
dared transcribe of this actual oath which I
once hail the honor of hearing. He will, I
trust, not fail to recognize the old classic de-
monjfc this wild western abjurgation.)
“Who did it?” asked Thatcher.
Yuba Bill did not reply, but dashed up
again to the box, unlocked the “IxxJT’ and
screamed out:
“The man that stole yotfr portmantle—
Wiles!”
Thatcher laughed.
“Don’t worry about that, Bill. A “bilwl”
shirt, an extra collar and a few papers
Nothing more.”
Yuba Bill slowly descended. When he
reached the ground he plucked Thatcher
aside by his coat sleeve:
“Ye don't mean to say ye had nothing in
that Iiag ye was trying to get away with?”
VNo,” said the laughing That her frankly.
“And that Wiles warn’t one o' them deteo
lives?”
“Not to my knowledge, certainly.”
Yuba Bill sighed sadly, and returned to as
sist in the replacing of the coach on its wheels
again.
“Never mind, Bill,” said one of the passen
gers sympatliizingly, “we’ll catch that man
Wiles at Rawlings suit*;” and Ik* looked
around at the inchoate vigilance committee,
already “rounding into form” aliout him.
“Ketch him!” returned Yuba Bill, derisive
ly; “why we’ve got to go back to the station;
and afore we’re off agin he’s pinted furClar-
mont on the relay we lose. Ketch him!
H—ll’s full of such ketches!”
There was clearly nothing to do but to go
back to the station to await the repairing of
the coach. While this was l^ing done Yuba
Bill again drew Thatcher aside:
“I alien* suspected that chap’s game eye,
but I didn’t somehow allow for anything like
this. I reckoned it was only the square thing
to look arter things gen'rally, and ’specially
your traps. So, to purvent troubil, and keep
things about ekal, ez he was goin’ away, I
sorter lifted this yer bag of hiz outer the tail
board of his sleigh. I don’t know as it is any
exchange or compensation, but it may give ye
,a chance to spot him agin, or him you. It
strikes me os bein' far-minded and squar’;”
and with these won Is he deposited at the feet
of the astonished Thatcher the black traveling
bag of Mr. Wiles.
“But, Bill—see here! I can’t take this!” in
terrupted Thatcher hastily. You can’t swear
that he’s taken my bag—and—and—blank it
all—this won’t do, you know. I’ve no right
to this man’s things, even if ”
“Hold your hosses,” said Bill gravely; “1
undertook to take charge o* your traps. I
didn’t—at least that d—d wall-eyed—Thar’s
a portmantle! I don't know who’s it is. Take
it.”
Half amused, half embarrassed, vet still
protesting, Thatcher took the bag hi his hands.
“Ye might open it .in my presence,” sug
gested Yuba Bill gravely.
Thatcher, half laughingly, did so. It was
full of papers and semi-legal looking docu
ments. Thatcher’s otyn name on one of them
caught his eye; he opened the paper hastily
and perused it. The smile faded from his
Ups.
“Well,” said Yuba Bill, “suppose we call it
a fair exchange at present.”
Thatcher was still examining the pajiers.
Suddenly tliis cautious, strong minded man
looked up into Yuba Bill’s waiting face and
said quietly, in the despicable slang of the
epoch and region;
“It’s a go! Suppose we do.”

The following instructions from
Comptroller General’s office will be
observed. “Circular No. 18, second
series.
The attention of this office has beefi
c tiled to the fact that in some counties
of the State the Auditors have been
in the habit of distributing loosely the
returns for personal property and
allowing individuals to fill out the
same sending the said returns to the
County Auditors without the oath j
which attaches to the same being ad
ministered. The practice must be
stopped and each and ev ry taxpayer
will be required to appeer before the
reapective County Auditors either by 1
themselves, their agents, or assigns,
guardians, trustees, administrators,
etc., and auswt r the various questions
as appear upon the returns. And the
County Auditors will put these ques
tions categorically tp each and every
person making n return of personal
property. When the said return n
maiie, the Auditor will administer the
oath and swear the party making the
return in each and every instance.”
Any jierson, company, or corpora
tion commencing any business in tlu-
county after the first day of January
1891, shall within thirty days aftei
commencing such business report to
the Auditor under oath, the average
capital employed or to he employed in
such business unless such capital is
shown to be listed in some other
county or State for taxation for fiscal
year 18 0-91 In accordance with see
tion 216 of General Statutes.
All real estate owners will be re
quired to state under oath all im
provements to buildings as well asad
jlition of new buildings since making
lust returns.
They are requested to state any ir
regularities, errors, or transfers in
real estate.
It is the desire of this office to avoid
mistakes und (live to the taxpayers in
little trouble as possible and any in
telligent co-operation on the part ol
taxpayers will be accepted.
Every male between the ages of 21
and 50 years except those inec pable o)
earning a support from being maimed
or from any other cause shall bt
deemed taxable polls.
