large contracting firms of painters in
Denver are paying the wage increase of
5 cents per hour recently demanded by

A poll OF the Denver yards is being
made by Switchmen's Union No. 1875,
preliminary to presenting a demand for
an eight hour day and a proportionate
increase of wages. In the Burlington
yards 95 per cent of the switchnen are
members of the local union, with a good
percentage in the yards of all other roads
except the d. & r. G. The new sched-
ule of hours and wages is being prepared
this week for submission to company Of
ficials and the State Industrial Com
mission.
Jack j. Reardon, night yardmaster at
the Union depot, and a member ci No,

week and looks like a winner.
At Monday nights meeting OF No. l26

was voted that every member henceforth
would insist on the union label, and see
to it that they got it on their clothing,
bread. cigars, tobacco, printing and every

THE SONS OF SORROW.

The most trifling incident may affect
your own destiny and the destiny Of
those who come after you. History is
full of stories illustrating this fact,
and none Of them is more remarkable
than the story Of Charles Samson de
Longval, who sacrificed everything for
love. One day, in the year 1862, he
was thrown from his horse; and as a
direct result Of this accident he and
seven of his descendants. for n period
Of 200 years. were Stunned Of men.
US though they were lepers, bearing
upon them the word ''unclean."
Charles was the descendant Of a
once illustrious house. His fOrbears
we're knights and soldiers under the
dukes Of Normandy, and had distin-
guished themselves for valor upon div
ers fields. They took part in william
the Conqueror's little basket picnic in
The Dolores star. [volume] (Dolores, Montezuma County, Colo.) 1901-current, 1916-09-15

England and might have remained
there in opulence, but returned to
their own country.
When the fateful accident happened
Charles was lieutenant in the army,
his regiment being stationed Mt Dieppe.
He was about thirty years of age, and
handsome and prosperous. His life
had been full Of adventure. for he had
spent several years in the wilderness
Of America. He was Of buoyant spir-
1t and extremely witty, and therefore
a great favorite with his regiment, and
q pet Of his commanding officer, the
Marquis de LaboIssiere. He also
seemed the pet of fortune, and 1t was
ncreed by his comrades that he had Q
future.
Then one day he went for horse
hnck ride. and. just as he left the
town. was thrown to the ground, be-
cause of a broken saddle girth. He
was unconscious for time. and when
he recovered his senses he was being
carried into n little dark cottage by
man of giant strength. He was
placed upOn a rude couch. and re-
r,nined there several days before he
was able to leave. He was waited
upon by the man who had carried him
in, and his daughter.
The man seemed bent beneath some
crushing sorrow. His face was hag-
gard and lined and his eyes full of
trouble. He was silent most of the
time. but now and then he talked to
himself in a wild way. and for hours
together he would pace the floor of his
little home. and moan and sob like q
nan in agony. The daughter was
beautiful. but as sad rs her father.
She never smiled and only spoke when
answering questions She was so beau
tiful and so gentle. and apparently so
afflicted that the young soldier began
Ivy plying her. and ended by loving
her pnssionately. All this time he
didn't know who his host was. and
when he asked the girl she only re-
Piled. you will know soon enough"
At last he was able to depart from
the house, and the somber host escort

Never come to this cottage again, If
you have any friendly feeling for me-

would see her in her coffin rather than
see her in love"
Charles returned to his regiment
nnd tried to devote ell his mind to
hts duties. but he coul,1 not forget the
SID girl in the cottage. So he went
back there, and had a few words with
her; this wns followed nv other visits.

pie must have seen him ""'ng and

/ ficted and Inundated by his present
course.
"Glve up this girl, crush down this
insane infntuation," said the marquis.
"and you'll have all your friends again.
AS it is, you are disgracing the regi-
ment."
Charles drew his sword, and broke
| it over his knee.
'Then 1 belong to the regiment no
longer" answered he. "I'll tear up my
commission at once"
And he did. That night he went out
TO the cottage to ask Marguerite to
marry him and 60 to the new world,
where they night begin a new life.
All the visits he had paid were with
out the knowledge of her father. And
new he went to the door on tiptoe, and
knocked gently-a knock she under
stood. There was no answer, and he
stood listening. He heard n moaning
sound, that came from the direction Of
an old shed back in the garden. He
stole there quietly. and saw that there
was light in the shed. The moaning
continued, soon rising to shrek. He

couch. Her father, his eyes glowing
insanely. was subjecting her to the tor

Confess that you love himw ne
was saying.
Then the door flew in as though
struck by thunderbolt and Charles
was in the room. He knocked the old
rGnn into corner and then tore the
engine Of torture away from the girl.
The father. half crazed with his men,
tai sufferings, had heard that the girl
was planning to elope with an officer.
For the sake of her lover. the girl
denied everything. and he was trying
10 force the truth from her.
Then Charles outlined his plan. but
The girl would not leave her father,
who was worse than alone in the
world. And the father would not con-
sent to her marriage unless Charles
agreed to adopt the old mans grue-
some profession. Charles did not hesi-
tate, and under such strange conditions
lie and the girl became engaged, and
were married few days later.
Alas that such devotion as that Of
Charles should have so poor n reward
His young wife died in less than a
year. leaving him n son destined for
his bloody trade. Charles thus estab-
lished the Samson family of execution
