ny "a O'
Colorado was wet" when | lived
there, else many of the amusing in
cidents which are still fresh in my
memory would never lave occurred.
The one which | am about to relate
took place in small but prosper
Gus city among the Rockies, which
then supported 10 saloons.
One day there appeared in town
man who introduced himself as
Mr.. Willard. He was an attractive
chap, Of medium height and build,
clean-cut, Well-dresscd, good-na-
tured and in his manners a perfect
gentleman He established himself
in a small room and advertised for
music pupils. 1t was not long be-
fore his splendid performance
aroused suspicion as to the cause Of
his settling in a mountain town to
undertake the routine work of teach
ing children.
Mr.. Willard easily made friends,
and his story soon became public
property. He had been a professor
in conservatory of music and or
ganist in one of the largest churches
i'll New York, but love of drink and
weak will had played havoc with
his career. Not that he was ever
so badly under the influence of
liquor as to be unable to perform
his duties for no fault could be found
on that score; but his booztng ten
denotes had shocked the good, con-
ventional people with whom he as
ISOLATED. shocked taem again and
again, until at last their patience
was exhausted He came west, de-
termined to begin life anew.
II seemed as ii Willard had truly
srsforned" File was never known
TO enter any of the IS saloons, nor
was his condition ever such as to
indicate familiarity with the cup
that inebriates. On the strength
OF this good behavior the Metho-
tlists, who had the largest church
and finest organ in the city, decided
to offer him a position as organist
with a salary that was considered
princely.
