CHAPTER XIX.

Daylight awoke with the familiar
parched mouth and lips and throat
took long drink of water from the
pitcher beside his bed, and gathered
up the train OF thought where he had
left 1t the night before. He reviewed
the easement of the financial strain.
Things we're mending at last. While
the going was still rough, the greatest
dangers were already past.
His mind moved on to the incident
at the corner OF the bar Of the Par
thenon, when the young athlete had
turned his hand down. He was no
longer stunned by the event. but he
was shocked and grieyed, as only a
strong man can be, at this passing of
his strength. He had always looked
upon this strength of his as perman-
ent, and here for years, It had been
steadily oozlng from him. AS he had
diagnosed II, he had come in from un'
der the stars to roost in the coops OF
cities, He had almost forgotten how
to walk, He had lifted up his feet
and been ridden around In automo
biles, cabs and carrisges, and electric
cars. He had not exercised, and he
had dry-rotted his muscles with alec
hol. And was It worth 1t? What did
all his money mean after all? Dede
was right. It could buy him no more
than one bed at time, and at the
same time It had made him the abject
est Of slaves II tied him fast. Which
was better? he asked himself AL
this was Dede's own thought 1t was
what che had meant when she prayed
he would go broke. He held UP his

CHAPTER XVIII.

When the ferry system began to
run, and the time between Oakland
and San Francisco was demonstrated
to be cut in half, the tide of Daylight's
terrific expenditure started to turn.
Not that 1t really did turn, for he
promptly went into further invest
ments. Thousands of lots in his resi-
dence tracts were sold, and thousands
of homes was being built. Factory sites
also were selling, and business proper
ties in the heart of Oakland. All this
tended to steady appreciation in the
value Of Daylight's huge holdings. But,
as of old, he had his bunch and was
riding it. Already he had begun Dor
rowing from the banks. The mag
nificent profits he made on the land
he sold were turned into more land,
into more development; and instead
of paying off old loans, he contracted
new ones. AS he had pyramided in
Dawson City, he now pyramided in
Oakland; but he did it with the
knowledge that it was stable enter.
prise rather than a risky placer-min'
ing boom.
Work on DayliSht's dock system
went on apace; yet 1t was one oil
those enterprises that consumed
money dreadfully and that could not
be accomplished as quickly as ferry
system. Not content with manu-
featuring electricity for his street rail
ways in the old-faslhoned way, in pow
er-houses, Daylight organized the Sier
ra and Salvador Power Company. This
Immediately assumed large proper
tions. Crossing the San Joaquin Val
ley on the way from the mountains
and plunging through the Contra Cos
ia hills, there were many towns, and
even robust city, that could be sup
piled with power, also with light; and
1t became a NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
project as well. AS soon as the pur
chase Of power sites in the Slerras
was rushed through, the survey par
ties were out and building operations
| begun. And SO It went. There wei,
a thousand maws into which he pour
ed unceasing streams Of money
In the spring Of the year the Great
Panic came on. The first warning
was when the banks began calling IL
their unprotected loans. Dayligh
promptly paid the first Of several o

ed; then he OWNED that these de-
mands but indicated the way the wind
was going to blow, and that one of
those terrific financial storms he had
heard about was soon to sweep over
the United States. How terrific this
particular storm was to be he did not
anticipate. Nevertheless, he took
every precaution in his power
and had no anxiety about his weather
ing II out.
And in the end, when early summer
was on, everything began to mend.
Came day when Daylight did the UNI
precedented. He left the Office an
hour earlier than usual and for the
reason that for the first time since the
panic there was not an item Of work
waiting to be done. He dropped into
Hegan's private office, before leaving,
for a chat, and as he stood up to go,
he said:--
"Hegan, we're all hunkadory. We're
pulling out of the financial pawnshop
In fine shape, and we'll get out with
out leaving one unredeemed pledge
behind. The worst is over, and the
end is in sight. Just tight rein for a
couple more weeks, just bit Of a
pinch or furry or so now and then,
and we can let go and spit on our
hands"
For once he varied his programme.
Instead of going directly to his hotel,
he started on round Of the bars and
cafes, drinking cocktail here and a
cocktail there, and two or three when
he encountered men he knew. II was
after an hour or SO Of this that he
dropped into the bar Of the Parthenon
for one last drink before going to din
ner. BY this time all his being was
pleasantly warmed by the alcohol, and
he was in the most genial and best Of
spirits. At the corner OF the bar sew
eval young men were. up TO the~old
trick of resting their elbows and at
tempting to force each others hands
down. One broad.shouldered young
giant never removed his elbow, but
put down every hand that came
against him. Daylight was Interested

hundred and forty hair brides. All
the rest goes, and good radiance. It's
that much junk"
A knock at the door interrupted
him, and he was left to stare delight
eddy at the Crouched Venus and on
around the room at Dede's dainty pos
sessions, while she answered the tele-
phone.
ut is Mr.. Hogan" she said, on re-
turning. HE is holding, the line. He

Daylight shook his head and smiled.
please tell Mr.. Hogan to hang up.
Pm done with the Office and don't
want to hear anything about any
thing"
A minute later she was back again.
He refuses to hang up. He told
me to tell you that Unwin is in the
Office now, waiting to see you, and
Harrison, too. Mr.. Hogan said that
Grimshaw and Hodgkins are IL bfouble.
That it looks as If they are/going to
break. And he said something about
protection"
| 1t was startling information. Both
Unwin and Harrison represented BIZ
banking corporations, and Daylight
knew that If the house of Grimshaw
and Hodgkins went 1t would precipi
tate a number of failures and start o
furry of serious dimensions, But Day
light smiled, and shook his head.
He caught her by the hand and drew
her to him.

tended. IF you stop now, all the worh
