 NEW YORK, Jan. 2j.--(Spccial Cor. rcspondcncc of the Journal Mincr).- The markets for the past few days have been characterized by profit taking The banking interests which bought stead. fly in December have been taking town their gains, and the result has been q normal, healthy reaction, which mas been helped along by professional opcr ators on the short side.
 The feature of the week wa. the sharp decline in Shelters, which the Standard On.Amalgamatcd interests arc said to be accommodating. some people profess to believe that this buy ing is being done now SO that thc pur- chascrs can pound the market with stock lat,r but thc fact. are that the accumulation is part of ,hc plan, pre-. yioaly ordained, to permit the real rulers of fuancial America to obtain a "suL.tautial interest" in Shelters and other Guggcnhcim enterprises.
 Morgan is going to Europe.
 There is harmony and peace among the crst-whlc warning factions in Wall Street. Morgan would not go oT to Europe to buy paintings and indulge his fancies if peace and harmony did not reign. His departure is the best sign that the financial crisis is now history, and that the banking position is safc Business will, in the course of time. revive, now that the barricadcs which have blocked the avenues of business are being removed.
 The logical position is the bull posi-. ton, and the slogan of the investor should be, "Buy on all rcsessions."

BOYD LAKE RUNNING WATER To
SEVERAL LARGE DITCHEs
PAYING ABOUT $500 A DAY
Rcmarkable Quick Piece OF Work
on Digging Outlet Canal Re-
corded. Water Made To
Dig Its Own Ditch by
Sluicing.

After couple of years of effort
and expense that would have dis
couraged even big corporation, b.
d. Sanborn, individual. is just be-
gtnntg to reap the benefit of the
hare work, in the income from tho
great Boyd Lake reservoir.
He is now selling nearly $500
worth of water every day, to the
bitches under his reservoir. 1t is
probable that he will dispose of $40,
900 worth of water this season.
Three weeks ago Mr. Sanborn was
told by pretty good water man,
that It would still cost $4,000 be-
fore he had the outlet OF the reser-
voir completed 30 that he could rIn
water. The work remaining to be
done has cost only mere fraction
Of that sum.
To dig mile OF outlet canal. and
accomplish this in the short time
allowed before the water was need
ed upon the ground required con-
siderable ingenuity, and this was
how II was accomplished. The wat
er itself, which was earning $500 a
day for owner, was earning almost
a. much more in doing the work
of excavating the big ditch.
First, two narrow bitches were
cut with machine, just like the
trenches for new pipe line for the
Greeley water works were dug
The two trenches were about six
teen-1oet apArt. and then the watel
was 6eruH In. There was plenty o
faH g tive the stream good curren
and quickly the core was cut away
But the canal had to be cut mucf
deeper than the trenches would go
30 invention was again brought in
to play. While the water was rush
ing through the sixteen feet wide
canal. a plow was let down to the
bottom. and at the end of Ions
cable. and a guide line from the
plow shafts to the shore of the can
al. The other end of the cable was
fastened to the center of telephone
pole. that had heavy wagon wheel
on each end. running on either side
of the canal. To each end of the
pole, team of horses was hitched
and the rig was ready to commence
digging loose the soft bottom of the
canal. the dirt being sluiced out by
the force of the water.
The plow was held in position
by a man on each end of the guide
line, and the ditch WAS cut down to
a depth of sixteen feet.
The outlet canal is now virtually
completed and the water is being
used by several of the bitches be-
tween Greeley and Loveland.

OLD STAND PIPE ON LONG HIKE
Ben Marsh Has Moving Job That
Will Hold Him For IL While

Ben Marsh has job of moving.
This isn't the first one he has had.
but it is keeping him about as much
employed as any he has ever tack
led. 1t is the moving of the big
standpipe of the old Greeley water
works, from it's old resting place On
top of Normal hill, to the sugar fac
tory at Windsor.
The huge steel tower or tank is on
trucks and there are two big traction
engines pulling away at each side
of the thing. They came down the
ciyt streets with the outfit, and al
though the gravel was almost as hard
as asphalt. and the wheels of the
moving trucks about eighteen inches
on the face of the wheels. these sank
into the hard gravel several inches.
The first stage of the journey is
the easiest. as the difficulties will
Just begin when the soft dirt of the
country roads is encountered 1t
may take several weeks to move the
tank to Windsor, IL miles west of
here.

COMES ALL THE WAY FROM
CALIFORNIA FOR HUSBAND
WERE TWO GEO. Il. ADAMS
Strange Story Of Love, Devotion and
DesertiOn.-Loyal Wife Re-
turns to California for
More and Probably
Vain Waiting

Coming all the way from California
to Greeley on slight clew. that
might lead to the discovery OF her
husband who deserted her seven
years ago. Mrs. George H. Adams, q
neat little woman, OF about So years
OF age. left again Saturday disap-
pointed. and to again sit down and
wait for the absent spouse.
Some months ago a man by the
name Of George H. Adams was ar
rested at Mead for selling liquor
without a license, and using tea
pot for dispensing the foamy. creamy
fluid. He was sentenced to short
term In the county Jail. A lady in
Cripple Creek saw the item about
Adams in a newspaper and thought
she might have discovered the hus-
band of girlhood friend in Califor-
mia, who had deserted his wife seven
years ago. The Cripple Creek lady
wrote to her friend. and a cores
pondence between the California Mrs
Adams and Sheriff Florance result
ed. The sheriff had q picture Of
Adams taken and sent to the lady
in California. The resemblance to
her former husband was strong
enough 20 that she sent . registered
letter to the man in jail here. which
however. he refused to accept. de-
claring that he had never been In
California. in spite Of the fact that
In q letter to the lady in Cripple
Greek he had given information thai
toadad to indicate that he was ths
man sought.
In due time Adams sentence was
finished and he left here. going to
Denver where he obtained employ
ment as singer in one of the electric
theatres.
A few days ago Mrs. Adams arri-
we'd from California. still hopeful
that she might find the man she was
seeking and for information Of whom
she was offering a reward Of 800,
dead or alive. Her visit here was
kept quiet by the sheriff until he
could again locate the man Adams
who had been in the Jail here. Sat
urday he was located at LOngmont
and Mrs. Adams went there imme-
diately. and shattered every hope by
learning for sure that Adams was
not her former husband.
The story OF the desertion Is a
pathetic one. The couple were fair
ly well-to-do at one time. Then re-
verses came and they lost every dol
lar and were deeply in debt besides.
The. then young. husband. went to
work at anything he could get. got
into better things. was finally elect
ed sheriff OF his county. paid up all
debts and was in every way a credit
to himself and his community.
Suddenly he disappeared as com
pletely as though the earth had swal-
lowed him up. Since then the wife
has been spending every penny she
could make. so far, in the vain ef-
fort to locate the missing man.

HEAVY DAMAGE IN SOME PLACES
-BENEFTT ELSEWHERE
GREELEY DISTRICT MISSED
Only Splendid Rain Fell In This
I.OcaAty.-West END Of County
Hard Hit.-Fruit and
Crops are Badly
Injured

A great rain storm. turning In
some parts to . terrific hail storm
swept practically the entire state
Saturday afternoon and evening. do
ing millions Of dollars worth of good
to growing crops in some places and
damage In small sections of the coun-
try.
The luck OF the Greeley district
still held good. and only the most
beneficial rains fell all over the
district from Psckham to Ault. and
east - far a. Kersey, or the limit
Of the irrigated district.
The hail storm wiped out crops in
considerable district in the west
end of Weld county and the eastern
part OF Larimer county. The storm
began In Spring canon. in the Pou-
DIRE valley. came down the Fossil
Creek valley. destroyed thousands
Of dollars worth OF fruit In the vici-
nifty of Fort Collins. travelled In a
southeasterly direction. swept grain
fields clear In the Johnstown district
and pounded beets and potatoes into
the soil. and finally spent Itself IN
the vicinity OF Platteville and Peck
ham. In the vicinity of Johnstown
It 10 pronounced the worst storm IN
25 years. Poultry was killed and
windows in houses smashed. For
several hours after the storm had
passed the hail lay on the ground to
q depth OF several inches. The strip
Of country laid partially or totally
waste was about - miles long By
three to four miles wide.
II 10 believed even yet that the
beet crop will recuperate but the
grain 10 completely gone. while po-
tatoes may do a little.
Fort Morgan reports splendid
rain Saturday afternoon and evening
which assures plenty of water for
late irrigation.
Sterling. farther down the river
also had good rains.
Colorado Springs and Pueblo had
rain and hail. and the biggest pre-
cipitation in years.
The benefit to the agricultural sec
tions OF the state far outwetghs the
damage in smaller sections. although
the loss will be heavy on some in
dividual farmers.
