shouted at the very top of IL. Winters
joined in, and even Helen nlingwOrth
found herself screaming. The three
men below were not more than five or
six hundred feet away, but evidently
they could not possibly hear in that
tumult of nature. No voices would
carry through any such rain and wind.
They were too intent ON their paths
and on what they had to do to look
upward. They rounded the shoulder
Of the mesa and disappeared In the
pines at its feet.
The three on the top looked at each
other.
''The dam still holds" said Rodney,
quite unsuspecting what was in the
wOmap's heart.
Even as he spoke, Helen nlingwOrth
turned away. She ran heavily in her
sOdden garments along the broken
mesa top past the house to the upper
edge. There below, her were the three
men just emerging from the fringe Of
trees. Rounding the end of the mesa,

Helen IllIngworth could see them
through the pines on the old trail. The
going was bad enough, but 1t was moth
ing compared to what they had passed
over and presently they burst out Of
the woods and ran along the greasy,
well-rounded hOgback that divided the
valley from the ravine.
The woman had no idea what was
toward, what was their purpose. She
could only stare and stare at the rap
idly moving far-off figure indomitably
In the lead, and the others following
after. There Winters joined her.
Rodney sent me to look after you;
he feels that he must stay back and
watch the dam for his paper"
Look" said Helen, pointing far
down. The men halted at the very
narrOwest part of the hogback. They
were clustered together. The bag lay
on the ground behind them. One man
bent over it, evidently opening it.
Another man swung the shovel vicious
ly, the third grabbed the pick. Win
ters had been too far removed from en-
gineering even yet to figure out what
was toward, They could only watch
and wonder.

fuse for a torch, the better to carry the
fire from one blast to another. AS II
sputtered into flame, he touched the
first fuse, then the second, and turned
and ran for his life after Murphy and
Funaro. They had Just got q safe dis
tance away when with a mufied roar
the two blasts went on nearly together.
When they ran back they saw that
twO-thlrds OF the hillOck on that side
of the ravlne had gone. A wall Of
earth through which water was already
trlckling rose between the great gap
they had blown out and the lake, the
upper level Of which was much higher
than the bottom of the great crater
they had opened.
"Hurrah," yelled Meade, the others
joining in his triumphant shout. "NOw,
another hole right there" he pointed to
the foot of the bank. "Drive 1t in
slanting and 1t will do the job"
"Will the dam be after holdln' ylt,
sor?" asked Mike Murphy, seizlng his
pick.
81 hope so, but, for Gods sake,
hurry"
With two men working, the last hole
was completed before Meade was
ready. Funaro, indeed, came to his
assistance in preparing the cartridge.
Presently oil was completed. Reject
ing the pleas of both men, Meade
struck the match, and this time, since
there was but one blast to be fired, he
touched it directly to the fuse and
waited a second to see that it had
caught and ran as before.
At a safe distance they drew back
and waited. Nothing happened. A few

Of the care they had taken, it had got
wet. 1t would not work. The precious
moments were flying. They stared
agonizingly ut the fuse through the
rain.
"Tll have to take look at it," said
Meade desperately.
FunarO and Murphy caught him by
the arms. They all knew the tremen-
dous risk in nearer approach. The
fuse might be alight still. At any sec
ond the flame might flash to the deto-
nator and then Yet Meade had to

But Meade shook them off and bade
them keep back. What was his dan
ger compared to the issue involved?
That last charge had to be exploded.
He stepped quickly toward it, and as
he did so he threw his eyes up toward
the gray, rain-filled heaven in one last
appeal.
see the upbursting masses of sOdden
earth, was he conscious of the fact
that the whole side of the hillock had
been blown away, that the last explO-
sion had completed the shattering work
of the first--that they had succeeded?
Did he mark the whirling water. driv-
en- backward at first by the violence of
the explosion, returning and rolling in
vast mass through the great opening,
did he see it plunging down the slope,
through the trees and bushes, and
pour thunderOusly into the bed of the
ravine? Did he see the tremendous
rush of the water from the great lake
that man had created tear earth from
earth, and ever widen and deepen the
opening as it crashed in foaming, ter
rible, red cataract through the outlet,
striking down great trees, roaring,
boiling wildly to the bottom Of the
gorge far below?
No, he saw nothing. Broken, beaten
down by huge bowlder that had been
thrown upward by the explosion and
had struck him ON the breast, and
lying battered under a rain of smaller
stones and earth, he was as one dead.
"By heavens |" cried Winters in great
excitement on the crest of the hill,

"Yes, yes; don't faint" cried Win

Faint! I'm going to him."

woman, letting herself down over the
