The boy stood silent, looking at Mackenzie. "Speak, boy," said French sharply. Kalman remained still silent, his eyes on Mackenzie. "It iss a bottle myself had," said Mackenzie. "Ah, I understand. All right, Kalman, it's none of your business what Mackenzie drinks. Now, Mackenzie, get dinner, and no more of this nonsense."
Meanwhile, Kalman was developing his mine, and dreaming great dreams as to what he should do when he had become a great mine owner. It was his custom, ever since Irma's coming, to spend the Sunday evening with her at the hospital. His way to the mine lay through scrub and sleugh, a heavy trail, and so he welcomed the breaking up of the ice on the Eagle River.
Come and sit down." "Will the horses stand here?" asked Kalman, whose sense of responsibility deepened as he became aware of Mackenzie's growing incapacity. Mackenzie laughed pleasantly. "Will they stand? Yes, and that they will, unless they will lie down." Kalman approached and regarded him with the eye of an expert. "Look here, where's your stuff?" said the boy at length.
With one of these orators David dimly felt familiar, and after listening for a few minutes to the lad's tirade against the 'autocracy of the school director' and the 'bureaucratic methods of the inspector, it dawned upon him that the little demagogue was his own landlord's son. 'Hullo, Kalman! he cried in surprise. 'Hullo, comrade! replied the boy graciously.
"I am awfully sorry, but the thing can't be helped now." Brown was too sick at heart to reply.

Five years of intelligent study of conditions, of steady application to duty, had brought success not in wealth alone, but in character and in influence. But upon Kalman, more than upon any other, these five years had left their mark.
Rosenblatt's words were followed by a chorus of encouraging cheers, for Samuel was not unpopular among the men, and none could see any good reason why a girl should object to be kissed, especially by such a man as Samuel, who was already so prosperous and who had such bright prospects for the future. But Irma continued to struggle, till Kalman, running to her side, cried, "Let my sister go!"
Through the dim light Kalman could discover the outlines of what seemed a long heap of logs, but what he afterwards discovered to be a series of low log structures which did for house, stable and sheds of various kinds. "Down! Bismark. Down! Blucher. Hello there, Mac! Where in the world are you?"
A girl in a dressing-gown, with her hair streaming behind her, came rushing from another tent, and sprang towards the door of the tent, from which came the mingled clamour of the fighting dogs and the terror-stricken woman. Kalman stepped quickly in front of her, caught her round the waist, and swung her behind him. "Go back!" he cried. "Get away, all of you."
After what seemed to us hours she slowly raised herself again and continued her tragic narrative. "He was already the fourth dweller in this house of temptations. "After his death his brother Kálmán came to join our circle. To the end he remained single; very early in life he was deceived, and from that moment became a hater of mankind.
