"Can't you see, trolly, dear-vlleaven
knows how I hate hurting yon, but I'm
thinking of your ! ippiness as well as
Will's—can't yon *fee that It was only
a passing episode to him, this engage-
ment f*
Mojly sat perfectly silent, fixing her
eyes oil Kitty's face.
"If he had meant It, wouldn't he
have written oftener from Clayton?"
"How long was he ill, then?" cried
Molly.
"He was In bed a few days after you
left. Of course, he couldn't resume his
work till his arm had healed,' but he
wasn't what you could call lit At
he went to the dlrecto!^ office
every day to work on the plans."
Her blue eyes, tranquil as a child's,
looked I nib Molly': gray ones. Pres-
ently Molly laughed.
. "To think I didn't know!" she said.
"I have been blind, haven't I? And I
thought that it was you who had
ceased to love me." 1
"I, Molly, dear? Well—it was pretty
hard, coming here v|tb WiU Carruthers
and feeling you ought to know, and
not daring t-i speak. But please don't
take my word about the man you're en-
gaged to. 1 feel like a mischief-maker.
But I love you, dear, and I like Will,
and I do feel he isn't to blame. Thnt's
why 1 came to you. And Tve no doubt
he's honorable enough to say nothing
at all, if yoa want to—"
"Kitty !" Molly sprang to her feet,
<|ulvering with indignation.
Kitty rose. "I don't know now that
Pve done right," she raid. "I hope jou
won't cdrae to have any feeling against
me, dear. Only you didn't e« m t<j un-
derstand—well, tilings. And what Tth
saying hasn't anything to do with Mr.
Bowyer. if you feel that you don't csfe
(or him."
"Care for that beast !** said Molly.
top alone remained above tins treacher-
ous swamp, and the rails hung fes-
tooned iu midair.
The whole embankment would have
to be reconstructed. As the mere me-
chanical process of dumping might
serve merely to add to the weight su-
perimposed upon the treacherous bot-
tom, Wilton determined to lay down a
corduroy over the sink-holes—a mat-
tress of tree-trunka. The depositing of
the ballast on this.would serve to com-
press the muskeg and loose rock, mak-
ing a firm foundation, and the trunks,
as they became water-logged, would
Iiardan, Increasing the strength of the
whole structure as time went by.
But for a few hours he almost aban-
doned hope. At the best, it meant hold-
ing up the construction of the line, for
the permanent way was now only a
few miles behind, and he dared not
start operations on the east shore until
lie knew whether the muskeg could be
spanned.
He spent the morning In his office,
writing a report for the directors. The
news would reach Clayton as soon as
it could be telephoned, but at least he
would have another chance. It was
too late now to think of changing the
route without throwing, the company
Into liquidation. And Kitty held Con-
trol. .
The thought of that strengthened his
resolve. He could not bring himself
to go to Molly with the desponclency
upon him, but busied himself that af-
ternoon examining the wreck.
For about a month he had had a
strange protege. One evening Jules
Halfhead, the deaf-mute, appeared at
the door of bis shaCk, and quickly as-
sumed the care of It. He was nearly
always to be found there In Wilton's
absence. Sometimes, however, he
would betake himself back to the port-
age, and he was tfree of the camp,
where he ran errands and messages fojr
0 e.engineers, and was UiaAiutt of .tulld ,
practical Jokes.
wnton came to the concluaioa, how-
ever, that the Muskegon's mind was aa
acute as any man's, and that his appar-
ent simplicity was nothing but the out-
ward aspect of M* infirmity.
When Jules had cqpked Wilton's sup-
per that evening he came Into the office
in a state of eacdteinent'.; The man had
hived the Work. He was often to be
seen on the trestle, clinging for dear
irfe to a plank as the trucks rumbled
past within an inch qtf his head. When
lie «aw the wreck of the embankment
that morning, the foreman tfild that he
had burst Into tears. Now he was evi-
dently trying to describe something to
Wtltop in pantomime;"but Wilton could
not follow his meaning.
Suddenly he seized a pencil from the
desk and, stooping, began to draw a
picture of the trestle upon the wall
with remarkable skill.
Wilton's interest was at once
aroused." "Yes," he aatd, nodding to
Jules. "What about it?"
It was his habit to talk, although the
deaf-mute could not hear his voice.
Jules had an Instinctive faculty of un-
derstanding. He looked at Wilton and
nodded back.
He neat drew four uprights—the
tjtfce no further cluuk^s with him. It,
would serve no purpose to accuse him
of fiaVliig tampered with tl e trestliug.
He Would give him a )s«st ;?«>utettherc
where be could do no harm, und thus
get rid of him.
Fighting down 'he burning ruge in
his heart, he \\eut dovu the ror.d to-
ward the* sipick xYhieh the engineer oc-
cupled. This was a rewnsmu-ted
shed. Yfcfere was only one room In It,
but Chambers had asked to have this
rather than shar$ the quarters of the
other engineers.
. The men were back In the l«mk-
houses. but th« door of the shed was
padlocked. Thinking that <'lutinhere
might he In f lie on in P. he inadt* his
way toward fhe other (jmimv*. But
presently he heard some one .alil.ig
hfrttr and, turning, saw Andersen run
nlng after him.
"Were you looklug for air. Cham-
bers, sir?" asked the foreman.
^"Yes. 'Where ia heT' r,
"Why, he went back to iHayifltn/thls
noon, Mr. Carruthers! He said JtCwas
going In fur you." ? If
Wilton's suspi<*ioiis suddenly tlauied
up. "'ilie key!" he shouted^ pulling
at
I guess he took it w^h litp^" said
Andersen.

' the staples pulled out at
once!" «
Wilton waited, fuming, until .Ander-
sen reappeared with the tool. The fore-
man wren'bed out the staple* and WH-
■tou burst open the door. As he had
expected, the sliack was completely
empty of all Chambers' belongings.
The two men looked at each other.
Slow understanding came into Ander-
sen's face.
"He was a bad yun," said the Swede.
"I guessed you knew your business,
Mr. Carruthers, when you t(lok*on Tom
Bowyer's right-hand man. It wasn't
for me to say nothing."^
"Keep your mouth shut still, Ander-
sen," said Wilton, slapping him on the
shoulder. "We'll Just start working
again. And keep your eyes open. Some
time we'll get him, and I'll telephone'
Inspector ^ualn to pick him up If ever
he sees him In Clayton."

meaning could be attached to that.
Wilton wondered Ifxthat was \>lwt
he did mean. If the uprights had been
tampered with beftfiWtey were set 6 -
to the ground, b/ax-cuts or otherwise,
the weight of Hie ballast would un-
doubtedly have broken "them. The

such case 1h practically lnU osed up4n
