CHAPTER IV.
The Girl With a Basket
It was June outside. June—It
slipped down out of the cool dells and
(Unties of the woods and soothed the
Pearlhunter's face, red with the stifle
and reek he had just left.' Fie filled
his lungs with it—Jutie—he tasted it
with his lips.
With half an eye on the door of the
Mud Hen. half an ear over his shoul
der, he crossed to the hank.
"What name?" Inquired the old
banker, making out the receipt, after
having placed the pearl away in the
vault.
The .oolor set the tan on the young
man's face afire. It was something
he had not foreseen—that a name
would be required; and ho had none.
A peart worth thousands, but no name
—he would gladly have given the one
for the other.
"What name?" Tepeated the hanker,
looking over his glasses out through
the window.
"Pearl—hunter!" tlie other stam
mered.
"Pearlhnriter—what?"
"Just—Pea rl hunter—•"
"Pearlhunterl Why, that's no
name."
"It's—It's all I have."
"Pearlhunter—well— I"
The banker had his mouth already
set to say something more—but he
didn't. Instead, he took a better look
at the tali younz follow on the other
Side OI llle WlUI^UW. Ul\t\ Milg£ Ilia [JCU
Into the Ink well a second time, al
though It was already overloaded to
the dripping point, he went on filling
ouf the receipt.
"Just bring this with you when you
want your pearl, Mr.—Pearlhunter."
"And If I lose It?"
"Then—well—Just bring your face.
Tes, that will do—your face. I reck
on you won't lose It."
The old fellow chuckled as If he
had surprised himself making a Joke.
It usually puts a man In a good hu
mor to discover that he has made a
Joke. The hanker stood rubbing his
bony hands together while the Pearl
hunter walked out.
What next? The Pearlhunter
stood on the sidewalk outside of the
bank door and debated that very
question: a question In two parts;
first, whether to go back to Fallen
Hock; second, whether to make an
other try nfior the Boss. lie finally
decided in favor of tin; Bosst. The
thought drew his eyes toward the
Mud Hen across the street. The Mnn
ln-tlie-Fancy-Vest was standing Just
Inside the door.
.11 mc iiiviuuii, u ;vui.b
with a basket on her arm enme out of
a grocery a block up the street and
walked rapidly toward the saloon.
The man just inside the door appar
ently was watching for her. She
seemed to know jhat he would he
there—to dread .that he would he—to
judge by the way she hurried past.
The man stepped out on the sidewalk
as the girl came opposite, ami tried
to stop her. He even stepped In !
front of* her. She turned out around j
htm and, with a hare word or two In
response to his ctTnrts to engage her
In talk, hurried rapidly on.
He stood looking after her till she
was a block or more down the street
—road would be the better word,
since the river road formed the one
street of the village—and then delib
erately followed.
All thoughts of the cabin at Fallen
Book, of the Boss sprawled over a
table at the Mud Hen, Instantly tied
the mind of the Pearlhunter. Ills
somewhat passive face livened; Into
his slow eye« one a quickened Inter
est. He hardly knew why he followed.
He simply found himself walking af
ter them.
The river road, as It follows along
under the brow of the cliffs below
Buckeye, makes many turns. The
girl and her pursuer were walking
fast when the I'enrlhunter peeped out
around a turn and looked after them.
By running at such times as the wind
ings of the road hid him, he had
caught up with them as near as wast
prudent. The girl was walking very
rapidly. It was plain that she knew
she was being followed. It was
equally plain that she did no* want
Iter pursuer to know that she knew It.
But walk.as fast as she would, the man
following tier walked just a bit faster.
Nearly a mile below the village, and
half that distance above Fallen Bock,
the river road angles abruptly to the
north through a cut in the cliff and
leads back Into the level highlands
Just where the road turns a path
leaves It. crosses n dilapidated rail
fence running along the east line of
the Warbrltton lands, and enters the
woods. The girl took this path. She
was in the act >>f climbing the fence
—low and broken where the patji
crossed It—when, with a prodigious
step or two, the man following caught
up with her and took hold of the
basket.
"Allow me to assist you," he said.
The Pearlhunter, from where he
had darted behind a clump of hazel
growing rank along the side of the
road, could just distinguish the
words.
Without answering, the girl sprang
to the ground on the opposite side of
the fence, but without letting go of
the basket. Neither did the other let
go. Placing his disengaged hand
upon the top rail of the fence, he
I vaulted lightly over. The Pearlhun
ter seized the favorable Instant to
•steal nearer. The sunbonnet hid the
girl's face so that he could not see It,
but he fancied the plump brown hnnd
on the basket handle was tremblings
The smile on the face of the man
clinging persistently to the other side
of the basket meant things that a
I smile has no business to mean.
' "Why do you always avoid me?"
Ills voice was low, soft, musical—too
musical. "Surely It's no crime for a
man to admire a pretty girl. "The cat
may look at the queen,' you know."
lie laughed. Something altogether
different from mirth in that laugh—
something altogether different from
mirth behind it. The girl made no
reply—if the heaving of her bosom
gave any index to her feelings, she
probably could not reply. She did
not even raise her eyes.
"You ignore me there In the vll
! lage," he pursued. "But out here In
the woods—well, it's out here. In the ■

The excln 111:1 tlim was suniriseil nnl
of him. 'llie «irl hurt suddenly
dropped her side of l!ie basket and
whirled. But quick as she was. he
was Quicker. As the liaskct clattered
to the ground he seized her arm.
There followed some muttered words
and n smothered cry that the Pearl
hunter was too busy ju.-t then to un
