weather the wet season has regularly set in the belt that stretches for north of river along pre cents as cheerless and dismal a prospect as a depressed imagination would care to picture ever is stirring at- such times which then occur upon the j rivers carry- down immense quantities of timber the coasts where it is collected assorted and held ready for transport to San Francisco or other commercial centres This of course entails activity commensurate with the fall of the rain and the extent of the freshet river is the natural drain for the great basin of the Mendocino redwoods and though its actual course is short compared with other California rivers its north middle and forks together form a very aggregate of water high way the logging business on which is by no means least of the indus tries of State Two or three winters ago I chanced to be in this section of the country during the early part of January just as the heavy rains were setting in luck would have it had got caught in the district lying between the middle and south forks of river When heavy set in it is no un common thing for dwellers be tween the forks to bo kept water- bound for lays at a time with the proving the woolen torrent or making a diffi cult passage over plashing soggy mountain divides to the stage roads in tho interior of the country Such was the state of affairs when I found unexpectedly caught at a small logging camp near tho hanks of the creek thankful enough however under the circumstances to have a shelter over my head a roaring fire to sit at and a bunk to turn into when got ready Rains down live ly remarked one of the woodsmen who occupied cabin ai ho finish cleaning supper and lit his pipe Start in in purty early aint it Jim Waal no replied the party from bunk where he was lying stretched upon his blankets reading eouiq old papers by tho light of a candle I it down heavier nor this January wartit it when forks was an we make the Point for nigh on to two weeks The third personage addressed as Bill absented with a nod of head from a stool before the fir where tat with bin upon his chin No nor I wouldnt to make the Point on such a night as this observed the first personage who spoke as he drew up a stool and myself and away at pipe Its a matter of so mo difficulty then crowing the river is it I asked with a of anxiety as I knew very well that the Point al luded to was settlement of Stew arts Point toward which I was then travelling and that to get there it was necessary to cross tho fork of tho river we now on Well stranger I should remark fiaid who hitherto said nothing looking up Tho forks in all up crick lie riz morcn five feet semt and theres bridge ye take and its a mighty thing to do for j hand let a Why fust thing yo know the hull pile might break up an find at the Point quicker it you had fur in didnt get crushed to saw dust or drowned afore ye was fifty feet on way And old logger re luphcd into meditation with a in which I thought I could detect a tingo of pity The slight smattering which I sccsed of woodcraft was enough to tell me that remarks just made related to enormous pile of hetero geneous log and trunks of trees that formed compact mass bridging stream quarter of a above slippery and treacherous nature of which might well prove fatal to a tyro in the should ho at tempt to croitht and perilous causeway which I noticed on pass it that afternoon constituted then the only practicable connection be tween shore and company had Into silence only broken by sound of tho swish driving rain upon cabins walla when suddenly tho door was thrown open and a fourth woodsman stepped unceremoniously In Hello I Dan exclaimed trio almost in ft breath as now comer brought his dripping oil clad fiituro to Irr Whats brought ought in such a night said Bill making room for him I ha thought youd rather ha stayed in in your place you I cam to hook life to sire that of his married part- returned the person Dan her for ho might have appro- rain from his clothes broke What ye want with a hook night chorused the crowi the an git for the little gal- replied Pan- bad wi the do old woman to git from the Point right away hook Oh thar in tha corner ho continued walking to one end Of the cabin and taking op a long polo tipped steel like a boat hook iised occasionally by loggers to steady themselves upon such passages as Pan now proposed to make were the logs a ye come along Dan asked Bill tiTcly The water was lapptn em party lively replied Dan but that thero big trunks right cross stream below an itll take a mighty big path to start her Guess shes all right for a day or two yet anyway Well yero bound to make it said Bill getting op and suiting the action to word III see the with the lantern and bo saying both men stepped out into the dark pulling to cabin door with some difficulty behind It might have been ten or fifteen minutes after that a low deep sound qoite distinct from that made by the wind and rain dashing the swirl of the water lapping the banks of the stream some fifty the cabin suddenly fell upon our ears Both the- woodmen in the cabin jumped to their feet simultaneously and I did likewise The logs busted cried Jim an the chances is Dan and Bill got acrost yet enough theys got caught an so God help em and the logger caught up a lantern and jumped out of cabin without waiting to put on his hat speedily followed by his partner and myself all of us making our way in the direction of the creek The muffled sound like the deep distant rumbling of thunder came heavier and began to resolve into the grinding and groaning of the trunks of trees now rather felt than soon moving down creek slowly to the position where Thar they are Jim his already blanched face looking even more ghastly beneath the rays of the lantern carried in bis partners hand Thar they are both them see their lantern up from front log certainly about one hun dred yards up stream flickered and danced a fitful spark oscillating from side to side with motion of tho log on which the men evidently stood though I could not distinguish their forms through the darkness and blind ing rain Two minutes more and the dread had approached near enough distinguish figures and their peril They were standing near the higher of a gigantic redwood trunk the foremost of thn squadron of trees and logs coming down an Inexorable rear directly upon it and threaten ing to overwhelm or snap or crush it by sheer weight if it offered the least obstacle to their majestic on ward sweep The two evidently or rather shifted their position near shore as possible where they could now their friends standing by our lantern just as we saw them by theirs But the unequal distribution of gravity which this very step of self preserva tion involved was moment tree to assume a more end more lotion to stream so that it evident to an experienced that it was only a- matter of time before it would again Stretch fame harrier from shore to shore that it had start ing upon its compulsory voyage This however ineffectual as it would have been to protect the lives upon it from the irresistible now bring jcotcd against It was not destined to bo accomplished owing to ilu- creased momentum of ly floating tree in front a shrink divided com paratively deep stillness of night intent had nil tho actors on the proving necessity of tho moment oven to hazard an exclamation A figure came flying down the slope from the camp above and as dashed to bank of crook it evident thatsho was swing ing her pic leather thong through straight for the standing now not than fifty feet abreast of us on tho trunk of tree BUI who was holding lantern caught noose and slipped it over the head of Pan till thong caught securely around his waist said in a voice wo could hear from bank Thar are I kin ketch on to tho hack tho loop an make the bank as quicks I haint got no and family to sport noways Jump Ho saying both men jumped head long into current flight strong arms straining wary energy to drag them through tho eddy made by tho tree now of its weight swinging slowly around towards lengthwise of stream Thirty feet and both men would been safe but at last great sup porting beam os being driven sheer endwyBdown the channel short er lags now with froo room to play surging and drivingpsst it on every side One of these bore straight down upon the woodsmen With a gigan tic bred from the deadly dan- before them pull ropo by the on shoro for a moment to make nearly submerged bodies fairly leap from water Next moment both disappeared from view beneath tho ponderous trunk and when five later burden at end of was dragged to it lighter by one Nothing bo dono for tho son orous and adventurous man who bad Jft a incisure own
