she spoke in her usual listless man

apparent carelessness was the con-
sciousness like a sharp sword. that
the gift was the forerunrer of some
thing to follow else than her pleasure.
She emptied the berries out of the
basket into a dish and stood regard

She was wondering vaguely what

CHAPTER iiI-con.Inued.

That night his comrades at the tav
ern had told him of this; they taunt
cd him with 1t: they laughed at the
girl. They did not like her-not one
of them. Narrow natures dislike and
distrust that which they cannot under
stand. Young Green also had aroused
his fears. Green had an education
he had asked where the girl obtained
her education. therefore she must
have an education. Tonight he was
assured Of this.
He kicked the book contemptuous-
iy. and muttered. under his breath, an
oath against young Green. II ever he
came there again 1t would he a sorry
day for him.
Dolores said nothing.
A sudden frenzy seized him. He
stopped and snatched the book from
the ground. 1t was an old astronomy.
She had been reading the book. for
she preferred il to any of her moth
er's books. and whel young Green
saw 1t the day he was there he was
much surprised. and promised to take
n volume on the subject the next time
he went that way.
She thanked him. and 1t was the
first time she had thanked any one
since Betsy Glenn died. That was
two weeks before. and he had not
come again as he said he would. but
she watched for him. feeling sure that
he would keep his promise to her feel
ing strangely glad when she thought
of him. She had perfect faith in him.
Her fathers face was lurid as he
snatched the book from the ground.
His small eyes. close set. were full
of brute cruelty: the veins of his
forehead were swollen. In his hands.
used to welding the heavy hammer,
the book was toy; his fingers
closed over 1t. and in an instant it
lay In shreds at her feet.
For moment she did not compre-
hend what had been done; she looked
from the book to him and back again.
Then she arose: her face was white.
and her eyes flashed. She looked at
him. and he covered before her. She
was tall and stately; he had never be-
fore appreciated her dignity. Now he
appreciated II to the full. The book
was the dearest thing in the world to
her: he could have wounded her in
no other way.
Mechanically he gathere, up the
scattered fragments and as she held
out her hand for them he gave them
to her without word. without even
slancing at her. For the time she
was more than his daughter; her
eyes were on his face. and her spirit
ruled his. Then they strayed away
to the mountain top veiled in haze.
The fire died out of her eyes; her
hands. mechanically holding the torn
leaves OF her book. fell listlessly at
her side; her shadow lay long and
dark behind her
There was a sense of mystery about
her which her father could not under
stand; he shrank from 1t and from
her. and passed away up the dark
bank heavy with the shaaows of the
pines that swayed in the faint breeze.
and again silence fell around her.

clasped behind him. his fair head
bent slightly forward. Dolores was
watching him. but he did not know 1t.
He never guessed of the wistful
brown eyes following him down the
stubbly path.
Bess whinnied shrilly when he
came in sight. She was restless and
snappish. but when he mounted and
rode out of the shop she grew gentle
again. AS he rode away Johnson
called after him that she must have
gone some distance without her shoe.
for her foot was tender.
Dolores watched him with her far
seeing eyes as he rode up the noun
tain, then her gaze went down to the
shop. Her father was standing in the
doorway also watching the rider. He
had forgotten his pipe; his face in the
hazy sunlight was full of sullen
hatred, and he looked capable OF
committing almost any act His NUT
tered threat or the previous evening
returned to her clearly and distinctly.
Her eyes widened with nameless fear.
She looked up the mountain again to
where the black mare was bearing
her rider proudly along the yellow
thread of road: she was no longer
listless: her face was white, her lips
quivering with excitement.

IDAHO SPRINGS CITIZENS ARE
READY TO BAR UNION LEADERS

Denver, July 31.-A Republican spe-
cial from Idaho Springs last night
says:
II. E. Gregory. member Of the
Georgetown Miners Union. who is al
legged to have made threats to blow up
the dam of the company that fur
nished electrical power for the Sun
and Moon mine, was arrested last
night. He was in possession of CORE
spondence from Chandler. the financial
secretary of the Idaho Springs union,
in which the latter is alleged to have
said that the union could easily bring
about the suspension of work at the
Sun and Moon by destroying the pow
er pant.
Other evidence tending to show that
the union leaders were cognizant of the
dynamite plots has been developed.
The coroner's inquest discovered that
Philip Fire was not shot by the mine
watchman. but was probably killed by
a piece of the dynamite that he and
his accomplices exploded.

STOCkMEN PLAN
PACKING HOUSES

Denver, July Heterogeneous for
the formation of a $5.OOO.OOO corpora
tion which will establish Independent
packing houses in the leading live
stock centers of the West were COM
pleted at a meeting of leading stock
men of the country held in Kansas
City on Monday and Tuesday of this
week. Charles F. Martin, secretary of
the National Live Stock Association,
and one Of the promoters of the COM
pany, returned from Kansas City
Wednesday. He announced that the
plans for launching the gigantic enter
prise had been outlined at the meet
ing and that the project was an as
sured success.
Another meeting is to be held in
Kansas City on September LIST, when
the company will be incorporated and
the stock books opened for subscrip-
tions. Already pledges have been Sc
cured for large amount Of stock and
active work on the construction of one
or more of the plants will be started
Immediately after the September meet
ing.
1--WE have enlisted the leading stock
men of the country in the new ven-
ture," said Mr.. Martin, land will have
all of the money needed to launch the
enterprise quickly and in a thoroughly
capable manner. We have several
propositions from various towns along
the river concerning the establishment
of plants. The best is a bonus of $780,
900 and 600 acres of land worth 5000 an
acre. Nothing will be done about the
location until the September meeting.
and we may then decide to build more
than one plant. We think independ-
ent packing houses will benefit the
stockmen throughout the entire coun-
try and will make money for the men
who are interested in them as we'll
Our principal object is to establish
competitive market and thus increase
the prices which are paid cattlemen

Gore Canon Rumor Denied.

Denver, July 31.-The Republican
yesterday says: Opposition from the
New Century Light and Power Com
pany will have no effect upon the des-
TIMES of the Moffat road. Such is the
statement made by General Manager
Ridgway of the Colorado-Utah Con-
,struction Company, which is building
the Denver, Northwestern & Pacific.
There was an article published yes
terday," said Mr.. Ridgway. of which
the substance was that the New Cen
.tury Company had driven us out of
Gore canon. and that resurvey had
been ordered by Mr.. Moffat. looking
to a roundabout route. There is not
a word of truth in the statement.
Neither Mr.. Moffat nor any officer of
the company has ordered any new re-
survey made for the purpose of aban-
doning Gore canon. nor will such re-
surveys be made. We will, without a
shadow of 1oubt. build our line
through Gore canon as proposed at the
