When ] met Tommy first his only asset
was In serious danger. for his Eve under
fed and underbred ponies were about TO
be seized for overdue taxes. l could not
help Tommy with money. but tried to
with advice. "Strike old Sam Ashby
for couple Of hundred dollars" I sug-
gested. Sam Ashby Was one OF the rich
men Of Helena, Mont, at that period,
and ran small savings bank. Tommy
Cruise tried old Sam Ashby." All he
got, however, was some pretty free talk,
in which the banker assured Tommy
Cruise that he would rather throw paper
money into the house OF his satanic ma.
jesty than loan 1t to such drunken,
shiftless fellow. Tommy Cruise got his
money, however. Three weeks later he
located the great Drum Lummond gold
mine. He knew that he had big thing,
but somehow he could make nobody be-
lieve in his mine. For years he worked
at it, however, living at times dogs

Once, while talking to friend OF mine,
he fell forward unconscious; he had not
eaten mouthful of food for thirty-six
hours, and yet with logged persistency
had worked on till lie fell In his tracks
At last his day came. He opened big
vein and had million dollars to his cred.
1t in good, safe bank. Hard times
over, he decided to pose as ''solid citi-
gen." so he opened savings bank at
Helena. One OF the first men to apply
to Tommy Cruise, banker, for d small
loan, was the one time banker, old Sam
Ashby, now less prosperous. Then came
to the old prospector the happiest mo-
ment of bis life, one that wiped out all
memory OF starvation and privstion.
For Tommy Cruise, showing bis would-be
customer the door, assured that custom
err, in language too emphatic and graphic
for English ears, that he would sooner
throw paper money into the house Of his
satanic majesty than loan It to such
druken, shiftless fellow as Sam Ashby.
One day Tommy Cruise invited the
whole OF Montana to his wedding; and
the whole Of Montana came. Tommy
had arranged for open house and free
drinks with every saloon in Helena.
