Tin* brutal captain of the whaler treated Mala and his family to a meal on the ve.s.ei, introducing them to forks, cups atnl other unaccustomed eating utensils as welt as to the white mans food (though it was far from being the best, before the trading commenced. Mata's sacks of skins were dumped out on the table, Akrat stood by as interpreter. while the captain uxamined the skins. Oi -okuiok watched, while I’uala and littio t'pik were entertained by Vogel, the young and good-looking second mate of the sidp. "Ask him what he wants most," said the captain. ' Me does not know," said Akrat after translating. "Does lie want a gun?" "He say perhaps. He means yes." The captain gave the gun to"Andersen. who stood i. upright on the floor, while Mala ami Akrat piled up the skins until they were abreast of the gun's muzzle The captain kept pressing down the skins until he had several hundred dollars' worth, for which lie offered Mala a • heap gun. Mala inspected Ids prize with delight. For live more skins a box of cartridges was handed over to the Eskimo. "He says big hair face is a very fair trader," translated Akrat. "Sure." winked the captain. "That gun cost 412.” As Mala, Aba and the children prepared to leave the whaler, the captain spoke fo Akrat. nodding towards Aba. 'Tell her to stay on board tonight." Aba looked pleased at being so honored by the "white god" when Akrat translated Ids words, hut Mala was bewildered. "But we had Just met. And lie didn't e\en ask me first!" "He is a white man—big leader. Everything he does is all right. You should feel honored," said Akrat, taking him by the arm and conducting him from the cabin. I'pik wanted to stay with Ids

The next morning Vogel took a gun and went out on the ice, looking for seal. He tired at one from behind a hummock of ice, but the animal had taken alarm and slid into the uaie, as the bullet whined over it. Continuing across the ice, Vogel sighted another dark objeet against the white glare of the ice, 11*' aimed nulrkh and fired. He did not .miss this time as a Jerk of the animal's head as the bullet struck told him. 11*- ran up quickly to his kill, fell on Ids knees beside it, horror spreading over his features. Hr had shot an Eskimo woman. Lying there on the ice, wil!t her seal pai l,a over her head, she had looked almost exactly like a seal. He turned Iter over and recognized Ab.t. Tears yet stood in iter eyes, as she had cried for Mala as, too drunk to walk, she had sought to regain Mata's igloo after Hie night on t e whadec, had stumbled and fallen in drunken stupor, In frantic haste, Vogel threw AhaT body over Ids shoulder and carried

it hack to the vessel.

They did not tell Mala why he was sent for when a sailor arrived and told him to take the first boat back to the whaler. He stopped at his igloo to see Aba and the children. As the small boat neared the edge of the ice near the ship. Mala marveled at the strange silence ot the crew ami the Eskimo women It was with foreboding that lie crawled into his Igloo. Vpik ami I’uala rushed to him and clung to Ids legs, whimpering and crying, dirty and Unkempt. Orsodidok sat glumly at one side, Ids head bowed. Mala rubbed noses dully with Ids children, then noticed a large patch of clear new snow in the rear wall, where it had been cut away and

File flopped dow n on the skins and was soon in a drunken slumber. Mala lifted her head; It lolled from side lo side. A queer odor made him lean down and smell of Iter breath; its odor brought a grimace lo his lips. Mala had packed his gun and his few household belongings, ready •for the Journey li.ck home the next morning, wliea the captain of the whaler sent Andersen to him with an offer to act us harpooner, the •hip's harpooner having fallen overboard and injured bis arm in a drunken frenzy The day was fair and the spouting of w hales had been -een far out to -*'ii. Mala approached (he captain, cold and unsmilling. The familiar c lap on his shoulder did not warm him up. "What's the matter with hint'’' the captain asked Akrat. "Does he want more pay?" "That part good." said Akrat. "But he want one promise—his wife she must stay In igloo while he gone No come here. X^ook after

children."

"Why. sure 1 " laughed the captain, relieved "I promise him myself nobody’ll lay a finger on her. And tell hint I’m sorry tebnut his woman I didn't understand*" Alter listening to Akrat, Mala looked searchingly at the captain, and then broke into u boyish grin and offered his hand, whit*-man fashion, completely satisfied. ‘‘Mala throw harpoon like you throw a knife," Akrat told the cap-

tain.

On that day's whaling Mala more than made good Akrat s boast of his ability as a •harpooner; a big bull whale fell to his prowess—big enough so that two days would he needed in the cutting and loading. Mala remained with the crew dispoaing of their "catch," hut that night the whaler was the scene of a lively celebration In honor of lit*' first whale of the season The boatswain, seated on the deckhouse, played the ac cordion, while the Eskimo women, whose husbands were out wlOi the small whaleboats, danced wilh the sailors. Liquor was forced upon them, whether they wanted It or not. They shrieked and laughed in drunken abandon, even us they were grubbed by sailors and carried to the cubing below deck. The Eskimo women on hoard failed to please Die captain. He felt lonesome and remembered Aim Me remembered her. but found it onnvenient to forget his promise to Mala. He sent two sailors ashore, who brought Aha otf hoard despite her protests and Orsokldok'g attempt to prevent her abduction When she was brought on hoard Vogel pbotestrd: "That's hardly fair. You promised Mala—” "1 promised nothing, you lllywMle school bojrl" pouted tint cup-

"Death could not be carried through the front." Mala lifted his stepson's averted face. "How is it possible?" "The white men took her. Their gun put sleep in her head." After pondering dully Mala gave an order. "Harness and load the sledge." After u silence: "VVheie does one sleep?" "I'p among the rocks.” Osokidok pointed towards Die hillock hack of the Igloo. At the cairn erected over Aba's body, Mala bowed his head and broke into sobs. He lifted a few stones and dropped Aim's effects Into Die cairn—all sine her necklace of,caribou teeth, which he placed about his own neck. Returning to the Igloo he found OrsokJdok had Die sledge packed. On it was the rifie and bo* of cartridges. After staring at them a moment, Mala took them up and hurled them lur away into Ute snow. The harpoon, which his step-son had also imeked on the sledge, he took Into Ids hands; calm and apparently unmoved, he stalked away without a glance at his children.

Bit. EXPEDITION TO SEARCH FOR LOST MINE ON MOUNTAIN PHOENIX, Ariz. (I'P)—Nearly n century of mystery itvl tragedy sur ■rounding Superstition mountain near here has at last amused public interest so much that a ‘mass attack" on the mountain will lie made hy citizens of Phoenix and neighboring towns on J::n. 20 and 21. The Dons club of Phoenix, romj.osed of young business men and headed hy Roliert J. Hannelly, president, on those dates will conduct a I wo-part expedition into the mount.iin and already more than (500 persons have said tha( they are going. .1'.-t of them are inttigued by the .'■any stories of lost gold in Superstiti* n. 4 hii mountain is supposedly the hs’ing place of the famous La Mina So nhrera (The Hat Mine), once owned by the Peralta family of Old Mexico, and reputed to Ikj tihe richest deposit of gold in Noith America. Ja cob Walz, a German, was the last American to own and work the mine, and he died in Phoenix in 1002. lit* i ften displayed nuggets of great value, which he said camp from there, but he would not reveal the mine’s lo, ation, and he admitted killing five men including his own nephew—who trailed him to fin! it. “These facts ihave given rise to a great mass of stoiies about Superstition mountain,” said Mr. Hannelly, who is a professor in Phoenix Junior college as well as Dons club pre-i-dent. "Half the people nut here seem to believe the mountain is full of gold Of course it is not, but i»eople believe it anyway, and they want to go hunting for it. The high pii.-e of gold here recently has stimulated them, and many persons are actually g u’nu in there every week. “N w the trouble is this—not one in .">0 is prepared for a haul prospecting expedition. There are real dangers The mountain is treacherous. It has no water in summertime, ind not much in wintei. Game i. scarce. Die plu e is so rugged and wild and expansive that only the be-t guides can avoid getting lost. It is no place for haphazanl prospecting and hunting." The biggest murdei mystery in 10 yeats in Arizona, still unsolved, is that if Adolf Ruth, who had a map to the last mine and who went to the mountain in June of IU.'Ii to find it. He never was found alive again, hut six months l iter his ,-kuli wa- found with a bullet hole in it, and then his body and lust camp were found nearly a mile away. Slteriff’.s officers worked fruitlessly for months on the case. Several persons have been shot at fri ri arrhusch in Superstition. In November three boys were shot at there, and one was wounded. Soon after, Calvin Hla,ine. of Phoenix, a traffic expqrt, with a ftiend, wa- hiking in tlie mountain and shots were fired at them for half an hour. The shots came from a mountain slope several hur l ed yards away, they said, in the roughest part of the mountain. These combine I facts and legends iih nit the mountain—the legends have grown by exaggeration of the fads - have served to publicize the place out of all reason. Thus the D<>ns club, a senice group like the Rotary or Kiwams, have -et out to di-pel fears about the mountain and to w: m people n it to believe all the fanciful tales of gold they hear. The plnCe seems dtvfin tely to have had its rich mine, hut it'- no pink tea to find. Professor Hannelly explained. The expedition wall he, first, for | iven who are expt rieneqd at prospecting, and who want to go deep into the mountain and re illy search for ore, at fFWi- own expense or adequately "grubstaked," an I lex! hy competent guides: and, -eiimd, for the general public, men and women, who want to go to the mountain and hike a short ways into it, to enjoy its scenery and lea in the danger- to be faced there, and to hear lectures on the legendah: ut the place. “When something mysterious builds up in people’s minds, like a haunted house or a lost treasure," says Mr. Hannelly, “the only thing you can do about it is to invite them to go there and ‘look for the ghost.’ We dislike to s *e so mam persons endanger their lives and waste their time and money hunting there, just becausei— like all of us—they like to believe the stories of lost treasure which they heu r. “I’d like to find a lost mine, too, hut I hardly hop*- to do so, ever. But you’d he amazed at the number of persons who have greater hopes than I have. They have come to Arizona from as far as Boston and Chicago nnd gone into that mountain Adolf Ruth himself was from Washington, 1). C. The sheriff at Phoenix says h<* will render a big service by educat. ing the public as to iwhat to ex|>«vt when they tackle Superstition tnnun* tain. , “Everybody, of course, will furnish his own transportation, pay all his own expense*, run his own risks, on our tri|m. We are just organizing end directing tlte expedition. I believe the number to go will iiun into the thou ands.”
