Incidentally these same Passonians would not have known a harbinger in any case, presuming possibly that it was one of those newfangled nipples for the hydraulic pipes at the Eureka Washings, or something fancy that Bill Judson was selling in cans at the Three Star Grocery.

But spring had unmistakably arrived at Canyon Pass when those two irrepressible pocket-hunters, Steve Siebert and Andy McCann, got together their frayed and rusty outfits, exchanged the hard-earned money each had toiled for during the winter over the counter of the Three Star for supplies and loaded each his burro till the sad-eyed little brutes 2almost buckled under the weight of flour, beans, salt pork, coffee, and prospectors' tools..."

Book excerpt: This novel tells the story of two irrepressible pocket-hunters, Steve Siebert and Andy McCann who don't get along. Excerpt: "What's the matter with the two old sourdoughs? All the time they were buying that stuff they never spoke a word to each other, and if one of 'em caught a look from t'other he snarled like a wild tagger! They'd have shown their teeth—both of 'em—if they'd had any left but stubs." "Ain't spoken, to my knowledge," said the storekeeper, "Steve and Andy ain't, in all of these twenty years. 'Fore that they were as thick as hasty puddin' an' threw in together ev'ry spring—even-steven—when they went prospecting; comin' back yere to Canyon Pass in the fall as happy as a bride and groom return from the honeymoon." "What happened? What made 'em so sore on each other?" asked Smithy. "Don't know. Never did know. Never could find out. 'Twas right after the big slide. You've heard tell of that, even if you ain't been here six months?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mystery of Lost River Canyon One hot, sultry August afternoon, a weary horse, whose heaving sides and foam-flecked breast bore evidence to the fact that he had been driven long and rapidly, was reined up in front of a little station on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad. His rider - a tall, broad-shouldered, full-bearded man - was dressed in clothing which seems to have been chosen by the ranchmen of the country of which we write, as a badge distinctive of their calling - a red shirt, wide-brimmed bat, corduroy trousers and heavy top boots.
