CHAPTER XLIX Denny had tried to put warmth and sincerity into her words urging Rio tr stay, but her voice registered in her own mind as cold and unfamiliar. And that last sentence — some perverse thing inside her had laid caustic stress on it at the very moment she wished to express only kindness. It was evident that Rio felt this also, because she turned a quick, i penetrating look on Denny. Then she reached out and patted her hand. "Don’t trouble about me, Denny. I went off the deep end fer a moment, but—l guess I'm not really so desperate. I must have a couple thousand left—salted down in my hometown bank for just such an emergency. It’s enough to pay my Way for a wheie —if I do stay.’’ She had regained command of herself, and as her eyes moved from Denny to Bourne, and back again, her face broke into a halfrueful, half-bitter little grin. “The fortunes of war, my comrades I —l’ll march up to my quarters now and—formulate a new campaign.’’ She turned and walked into the hall to the etairway. There was something rather lonely and gallant about her. Denny felt it; was touched by it; yet she could not help wondering if the new campaign included the capture of the master of River House. Though she was instantly ashamed of the thought, she was not quite convinced that she was wrong. Bourne nad watched Rio’s exit with an unfathomable light in his eyes. When she began mounting the stairs, he tamed to Harp, who had been a sympathetic spectator during the scene. “A fellow never can tell when thoroughbred blood will crop out in a range nony,” he commented. He was about to say something more when the ringing of the doorbell pealed through the house. Pinecone and Alderbloom were both out for the evening, and so he went to the front door himself. Denny heard him say, “Hello, stranger' Glad to see you. Cotoe In.’’ » The answering voice brought Harp’s head up with a jerk. “Pagel” he ejaculated in away that made the name sound like an oath. “The confounded nerve of that bird—barging in here as if he was a pal. I wonder what he's up to now?” Page was coming down the hall toward the living room. One look at his slightly thick neck, his glossy black hair with its precise waves, his strangely round nostrila reminded Denny as the time she saw Page and Willow Haskell in the cabin of the Taku Wind. Revulsion swept her She wanted to get away before he came into the living rooa>; but it was too late to act on the impulse. He had seen her and was coming forward, smiling. There was an ebullient assurance in bis stride; even in his manner of wearing his ultra-smart tweeds. “I couldn't wait another minute to congratulate Rev, Mrs. Boumel” he said, in a hearty, yet patronising tone. ‘And, of course, to wish his channing bride evary happ'.nejsi” He bent over her hand with exaggerated obsequiousness and from under his dark brows sent her a Tong look that hinted at a mutual understanding, a sharing of things past from which her husband was excluded. She felt the color race to her cheeks. “And what a surprise you gave me, Rev, you ely old bird I” He swung about to clap a hand on Bourne’s shoulder. “Winnutg River House and its mistress at the same time.. . Ah, there, Harp, my good fellowl How are yous" The foreman acknowledged the greeting with a sour glance and a pointed silence. “Well, folks,” Page went on cheerfully, rubbing one well-manicured hand over the other and looking about him. “Seems like old timee—all of us together again. But I must say that Tarnigan looks like last year's little old bird’s nest to a chap just back from the States. 1, for one, don't see how you ever stuck it out for a whole winter.” He sat back in his chair with such a bland air of superiority Denny had difficulty holding back the withering retort that rose to her lips.

Bourne, however, seemed unaware h of the man’s odious manner. g Page beran to detail his winter d activities in New York. Astor hr had exhausted his subject he remarked, as if the d thought had just occurred to him, y “Being in love seems tn have weaky ened your head, old man. I couldn’t believe it when I heard you had laid . the Maid up on the Lonewater ways. t What was the matter! Did the old n ' tub break down on you or did you get cold feet when the Ice began to , form!” ’ Bourne replied serenely, “No. I t had another good reason.” He looked across at Denny with a slight smile. d She thought, “I know the reason. t He risked his boat to keep me here and so avenged himself for a slight to his pride.” But she was too ex- , asperated by Page's attitude to feel d any rancor in the thought. r “Well," continued the master of the Taku Wind, “I’m shoving off at ’ sun-up in the morning. When do . you hit the current, Rev?" “Not until noon. But I’ll be dose ~ on your heels getting into Wrangell, Jack.” 8 Page waved a hand and responded ’ with bluff magnanimity, “Oh, if * you’re that near ready, I’ll wait for s you. I don’t want to hog all the P breaks.” ’ "Why this sudden benevolence?” 1 "Just my natural good sportsman- " ship, Rev. Besides, I can afford ft. 0 Looks like a big year on the Stikine. 5 I don’t know how many hunters you'll have, of course. But I’m fixed t so that I expect to make a dean-up s this season. A elean-up big enough e to give me a fling in gay Paree next i winter.” “You don’t expect any such thing,” s was Bourne’s good-natured contra--1 diction. “You xnow as weH as I do - that there'll never be a big enough year on the Stikine to make good S business for two outfits.” Page laughed. “Why not sell out * to me then?" he suggested, in the t light manner of one who knows such o a contingency Is out of the question. Bourne seemed vastly amused. >, “Why! I’m holding all the high e cards here. Against my River House trade, the mail contract, and the t freight contracts I hold, the best you ” can do is get the worst of it” e “I’m not so sure about that” re- - turned Page. On a table between - him and Bourne lay a couple of I packs of cards. He rested his fingers on one of them and with his thumb 1 began to riffle the edges. “I’m quarc teringmy hunters at the Hudson’s r Bay Hotel—for a lot less money ■ than it costs you to keep yours at 1 River House. I’m getting a bunch » of crack guides down from Caribou t to handle them. The mail contract —that'll be up for bids again next I year, and weT see who gets it then, s As for freight, seeing that you’re > still tied op fn Tarnigan while I’ve r already made one trip, I imagine . 11l get my share right along.” e “All right, old fruit” . Journo’s j f left hand went out in the gesture of one who acknowledges a point s scored against Mm. He slid his right ’ over the other deck of cards and, re- ; taining them under the hollow of s his palm, commenced a smooth, ’ under-the-hand shuffle, without look- * Ing at them. i Denny suddenly became uneasy. I It dawned on her that under the ap- - parent raillery of their interchange t something portentous was gliding; - something that was leading up to a » deadly serious issue. b Bourn* continued. “How about ” splitting th* pot right now, Jack, i 111 give yon seventy thousand for r your boat, your doefc and Ware e house, year good will—and a signed i agreement to keep off the Stikine for good. That lets you out with a e nice profit end Saves us both the exi pense of a fight.” Page laughed a little too loudly. - Then, lowering his eyes to the cards d he had picked up from the table, he r said, “Not a ehance. But I’ll be -fair, Rev 111 give you the same t amount for your holdings, including t River House." p “My holdings are worth over a r quarter of a million—more than six t times the amount of yours.” “Maybe so—today. But they h wont be after a year of strong coray petition. You know me. Rev. I’m i- out to buck you eveia way I can. i. It'll take a better riverman than J- • t ■

you are to crowd me off the Stikine. Better consider my proposition before you take on a fight.” » Page spoke with such an air of amused superiority that Denny began to seethe with indignation and resentment. Her gaze moved back to Bourne, who was sitting absolutely still, except for the gentle, fluid movement of his right hand over the cards on the table. Surely he was not considering Page’s ridiculous offer. As she wstched him for some hint of his thoughts, the facility of his fingers held her for a moment. They seemed barely to move, yet the pack separated into two parts, fluttered under his palm, and reformed continuously. With something of expectancy she hoped Bourne would say something that would put Page in his place. But to her surprise her husband suddenly turned his face toward her with a look in his eyes she never afterward forgot—the steady, concentrated gaze of a man considering, weighing, balancing one chance against another, and coming to a decision. The most surprising thing was that it was not the abstracted regard of a thinking man seeing through her to some vision of his own. She, Denise Bourne, was somehow in his calculation—or so it seemed in that first second, before she remembered how impossible it was. Nevertheless, she was so disturbed by it that she missed the beginning of Bourne’s reply to Page. ”. . . sporting chance. Well, how about a real sporting chance. Jack. Here, tonight. I’ll play you one stack of freeze-out—stud or draw. My outfit against yours. Loser to take his suitcase and walk out. Winner to furnish him transportation to Wrangell.” "No! No!” cried Denny. But neither man paid any attention to her. She was certain she saw a spark of elation leap into Page’s gray eyes, but he shook his head. “Nothing doing, Rev," he said. “Poker is all right as a pastime, if played for reasonable stakes; but you have to have the cards before you can play them, and— ’’ “Poker, as you very well know. Jack, is the only card game where you don’t play cards. You play—men. We’ve known each other all our lives. We’ve gone through high school and university together. What more sporting thing now to settle this than a game of poker—your estimate of my character, my psychology, against my estimate of yours. Have you got the nerve to back your judgment?" Page averted his gaze from Bourne, and with an uneven laugh, tossed his cards to the table. "Trust you to grow academic over poker, Rev. Poker might settle which of us is the better psychologist, but where talents are equal in that respect, it’s the luck of the cards, after all, that would decide the winner. Anyway, I’m no psychologist. I’m a river skipper. I'll gamble with any man on my ability in that game. If you really want to settle this—’’ He broke off with an oblique glance at Bourne. “Shoot! What’s on your mind?” “Well, how about a race? From your dock here in Tarnigan to the dock in Wrangell. Loser to sell out lock, stock and barrel to winner for —say fifty thousand. Our boats are evenly matched as to speed, so the | result will really depend on which of us is the better and nervier whitewater navigator." At the word “race” Harp had leaped half out of his chair and sat down again, protest written large on his hawk face. Bourne drawled his answer. “Been putting in a new set of engines for this, Jack?” “Not at all," hastily disclaimed the other. “The Taku Wind— hull, engines, propeller—is exactly as she’s always been. If she isn’t, all bets are off. How about it? Are you game, or is all this sporting talk of yours a bluff?” Again Bourne’s glance moved to Denny. She shook her head imploringly; but she was sure now he was not actually seeing her. “It’s a bet, Jack," he agreed, with sudden briskness. “We’ll make the start at five o’clock in the morning.” (To be continued) Cewnsht b, Btrrni wiiiombbz. .
