As Jack came down the stairway from the elevated road at Twenty-third Street he ran against a man who was hurrying up a man in a pronounced traveling-suit, grip-sack and umbrella in hand, and in haste. It was Mavick. Recognition was instantaneous, and it was impossible for either to avoid the meeting if he had desired to do so. "You in town!" said Mavick. "And you!" Jack retorted.

"Well, all I hope is that they don't camp on our trail." "I guess everything is all ready," remarked Tom. "I can't think of anything more to do," said Ned.

James, where I had written Phil to meet me, if he could come down from Boulder. "Young Wayland had his time in the city, and I had finished my business and was going to start back and leave him to enjoy by himself his trip to Pike's Peak and the other sights of the State, considerably disappointed at not having seen Phil, when he came in on us as I was packing my grip-sack.
