Good; the instrument is yours"

"Good; the instrument is yours"
That was the first step and the next
step came very shortly after, when,
having further demonstrated his ca
pacity in other ways, Meade was Civ
en- charge of the work ON the east end
Of the dam.
II don't care who he is" said Van
deventer to his chief subordinate, "he
knows what he's about, and If you
watch him you'll see. He's keen on
handling men. The other section fore
men will be hard pat to keep up with
him. He keeps watch on himself. He's
got some secret he won't betray. He
doesn't mingle with the crowd, but
every once in a while something slips
out. What he doesn't know about en-
cheering nobody needs to know, FIJI
wager"
"How do you account for his being
out here?
"Oh, it's the old story, 1 suppose;
he's come cropper somewhere
down and out and wants to begin
again, and can't do anything but this.
It's not our business, Stafford; he does
good work for US and we're satisfied"

charge of some special work, thai
Vandeventer unconsciously looked tt
him in any emergency. He actually
found himself consulting Meade or
occasion.
He had accompanied the younger
man on one of those rambles which he
had hitherto taken alone. He had not
broken down Meade's reserve, but he
had won his admiration and regard
Vandeventer was not unknown in en-.
cheering circles. In earthwork he
was by way of being an authority.
His experience had been varied and
extensive. Meade's reserve and reti-
cence rather hurt the older engineer.
He had invited confidence and had
even given his affection. He intimat-
ed delicately that If the other were
under d cloud Vandeventer might be
in position to help him.
1t was fortunate for Meade's pur-
pose of concealment, for his incognitO,
that most of his engineering work had
been done abroad and that he had
been out of touch with American en-
cheering for practically the whole of
his career. Vandeventer was Har-
ward man, too, and that made 1t espe-
cially hard for Meade to keep from
betraying himself. AS a matter of
fact, the younger man actually longed
to make a clean breast g., 1t, but he
could not quite bring himself to do it
yet. That might come later.
Three months ought TO see the COM
pletion Of the dam and the long canal,
which was to carry the stored water
to the irrigation bitches below. Van
deventer was already making plans
for another big job, and he had de-
cided, in his own mind, that among the
subordinates whom he would take
with him the newcomer should have
the first chance. Vandeventer felt
proud and satisfied when he surveyed
the work that had been accomplished
in the six months of labor. To be sure
the delay in the completion of the
spillway disQuieted him a little.
The dam had reached the spillway
level fortnight before, and had now
passed it. Indeed, ON the fifth Of JAM
uary the dam builders were within
five feet Of the top; that is, the crest
of the dam was 100 feet above the
level of the valley. They lad planned
to run the spillway around the east
ern end of the dam. The rock drills
and dynamite which had been ordered
had finally arrived in December, and
by putting as many as possible to
work on the spillway Vandeventer had
succeeded In opening 1t for its entire
width to an average depth of about
seven feet below the intended top of
the dam; that is, 1t was now about
two feet deeper than the actual crest
Of the dam. but 1t still lacked five feet
Of its designed depth.

the records had shown, was not due

CHAPTER XIV.
The Former and the Latter Rain.

The Former and the Latter Rain.
The work on the dam was progress
ing splendidly. Vandeventer, driving
his men hard, shared in all their furi-
GUS efforts. He was not only their
leader, but their inspiration. He had
surrounded himself with a body Of
able assistants, and his Transfers and
workmen had been culled until they
had become small army of picked
men Of which to be proud.
Among all these Meade stood very
high. In the four months he had been
with Vandeventer he had shown such
a grasp of things, such an ability to
handle men, in one or two instances
when, with intention to try him, the
resident engineer had given him

modest pride. "He thought all the

he happened to see your pOny-thls

He asked me whose 1t was; and he

Nan rode home much more excited,
more bewildered than when she had
ridden over. Strangest shock Of all
that this man of all other men should
profess to care for her. She had
shown anger when McAlpin dared
speak of It; at least, she thought she
had. And she still did not know how
sufficiently to resent the thought of
such audacity on De Spain's part.
This was, to say the least, a further
awkward complication for her feelings.
She already had enough to confuse
them.

die If he remained longer unaided, and
there were unpleasant possibilities, If
he died where he lay. She did not want
to pity or to help him, she convinced
herself; but she did not want his death
laid to Morgan plot-for none of his
friends would ever believe De Spain
had found his way alive and alone
to where he lay.
All of this Nan was casting up in
her mind as she walked home. She
had already decided, but without
realizing it, what to do. and was will

open.
Toward daylight of the morning, De
Spain dreamed he was not alOne-that

the coming of another day, weaker,
