feet wide at the bottom and 1900 at

keen blue eyes, an aggressive chin. a

keen blue eyes, an aggressive chin, a
repellent mouth, Henry Cavenaugh was
the personiflcation Of the modern Croe-
sus. Immutable in purpose, dogged in
perseverance, a relentless enemy.
Jesuit in that the end always justified
the means, he stood a pillar in the
world Of finance. where there is
sometimes Justice. but never any
mercy. Thirty-fve years before he
had been a messenger in stock
brokers' Office. OF his antecedents
nothing was known until he broke
one Of the famous gold corners in the
seventies. when a handsome. ruddy-
checked little Irishman bobbed up Sc
renely from nowhere in particular and
claimed to be the great Cavenaugh's
father But his proofs were not con-
vincing, and when the son showed
decided contempt for him, he gently
subsidized into oblivion and was heard
of no more. From time to time Car
rington gathered a small crumb Of in
formation regarding his sweetheart's
grandfather, but whenever he
broached the subject, however tact
fully, everybody concerned headed the
conversation for a different port.
Darlington had never laid eyes on
the old gentleman, and for all he knew
to the contrary he might be a myth.
He reasoned that in all probability the
grandfather was illiterate, uncouth,
and rather an awkward piece of family
furniture to handle, when the family
proper were ingratiating themselves
into the Chippendales OF society. I'm
fortunately. Mother Cavenaugh, good
hearted and amiable in her way. had
been stung by the bee OF the climbers.
and her one ambition was to establish
herself and daughters in society, and
had not he. Darlington, come OF an
aristocratic family tpoor, it is true),

would never have opened to his knock.

breaking the sunbeams against their
polished wings. Finally they settled
on the slate roof and fell to strutting
and waddling and swelling their
breasts pompously. Darlington opened
and refolded the document. but he did
not take his eyes from the doves.

STICK TO THE SIMPLE LIFE.
Unfortunate French Couple Re,oIute

Simple life is being practiced with
vengeance by laborer and his fam
lily at Montgerou, near Corbell. The
workman and his wife had hitherto
been known as an industrious and
thrifty couple. but they nevertheless
found it difficult to make both ends
meet, having to support six small chill

What should he do? What Ill wind
had blown this thing into his door
way? Nothing had warned him of the
impending tangle. Until two days ago
Cavenaugh was at the other end of the
world. so far as his investigations at
that time were concerned.
He struck a match. The silver of
pine flared palely in the sunshine,
writhed and dropped. black and
charred, to the floor. He shrugged his
shoulders. Chivalry of this sort was
not the order of the day There was
something stronger than the voice OF
duty. something stronger than the
voice of the heart; 1t was the voice
of pity, which urged its appeal for the
hundreds of men and women who had
invested their all in the Cavenaugh
concerns. The thought of their ulti-
mate ruin. should Cavenaugh be per-
mitted to pursue his course unchecked
bore heavily upon him. No. he could
not do it. He must fight, even if he
lost his all in the battle 1t is a fine
thing to right wrong. All the great
victories in the world have been won
for others than the victors. That
Cavenaugh was the father of the girl
he loved must have no weight on the
scales of justice.
Resolutely he thrust the document
into mis- coat pocket, closed his desk
and relighted his cigar. In that mo-
ment he had mapped out his plan Of
action. That very night he would
lay the whole thing very clearly be-
fore the girl herself, and whatever
decision she made, he would stand or
fall by it. for he knew her to be the
soul of honor
Poor girl. 1t was a heart-breaking
business. How in the world should
he begin, and where should he stop? !?
All, that was it. He would lay the
matter before her in a manner that
would conceal the vital nearness of
the case, as if it were some client of
his who was unknown to her. And
when she judged the case. he would
speak the bald truth. 1t would be a
cruel blow. but nevertheless he must
deal it. She loved her father, and
after his own peculiar fashion her ia
| ther loved her. She was the only one
in the family who could wheedle him
out of a purpose; to the rest of the
family his word was law immutable.
1t was very hard. sighed Darlington.
For the father he had neither pity nor
sympathy: there were many ugly
tales about his financial dealings: but

r RTED COMBINATION OF
GREAT NORTHERN COLORADO
POWER PROJECTS.
DENVER TRAMWAY DEAL
EXPECTED. TO SUPPLY ELEc.
TRIciTY TO TRAMWAY AND
OTHER LARGE USERS.

Denver.-A Greeley special to the
Denver Republican Monday says: One
of the greatest ombination enter
prises ever proposed in northern
Colorado will be carried out by the
Greeley Poudre Irrigation Company.
which will use its big storage system
not only for irrigation but for furnish
ing power for the Denver Tramway
and other big works in the northern
part Of the state. For some time it
has been known that the Greeley Pou-
dre irrigation district was to have an
additional supply OF water. 1t is said
that this supply is to come from res
ervoirs near the head of the Poudre
by the use of old priority ditch rights
not used for years. A big reservoir
site to be filled in this way, located on
Stove prairie. and purchased from Will
liam G. Evans. has been taken over
and incorporated with the system and
it is understood that Mr.. Evans is now
a member Of the Greeley Poudre Com
pany and that he is especially interest
ed in the power proposition to be de-
veloped. A party of Eastern capital
lists left today to inspect the proposed
reservoir and tunnel Of the enterprise.
d. A. Camfield. president Of the com
pany, said that matters are nearly
completed for letting a 100000 con-
tract
In Denver. say the Republican, it
was learned that plans for q great
combination of reservoir and water
rights in the northern part Of the state
is in process of completion. 1t will in
ciude the Cache la Poudre irrigation
project. in which w. G. Evans of the
Tramway Company has control, and
the Greeley Poudre Irrigation Com
pany, also the big irrigation district
now under way and perhaps one or
two ditch companies, the whole to
form a combination power and irriga-
ton undertaking Of magnitude. 1t Was
stated definitely that the proposed
merger was outside both the Central
Power Company and the Northern
Power Company.
Last March. George B. McFadden.
civil engineer OF this city representing
the Evans interests, filed a reservoir
project with the state engineer involv
ing the expenditure Of over $10,000,000
in the building Of reservoirs and add
ing to the capacity of those already
built and in the construction of many
miles Of canals and laterals for irri-
eating tracts of land in Weld, Larimer
and several small counties to the east.
The Roosevelt reservoir was to be
enlarged with a dam 400 feet high.
From this the water would be piped to
the junction of the Elkhorn and
dropped to the power works below.
The water. having served its purpose.
would be run to the Stove Prairie res
ervoir to be used for irrigating pur-
poses. All three reservoirs are in
cluded in the proposition for enlarge
ment.
