"THE LUCK OF ROARING CAMP


COLORADO INCIDENT-ADvENT OF THE
FIRST BABY IN MINING DISTRICT.
The Rocky Mountain News furnishes the
in Lake Mining district, in the Ssn Juan
country, for on that day, says the Lake City
Silver World, came an interesting stran ger
nor over the Antelope park trail,
but in the good old way, or
dsined by God, and faithfully kept up by
mankind. On that day the wife of S. T..
Hoyt gave birth to the first child ever born
in Lake district, and neither father nor
mother was more proud of the event than
were the "honest miners" who dropped
pick and drill and fastened to town as the
news spread from mine to mine, for they all
regarded it as forerunner of a higher civil
iZstion, and were prOuder than If they had
struck veritabie "bonaasL" The event
occurred in the morning, and when, toward
evening. 1t was announced that The first
born in Lake City would hold general re-
ception, all were eager to gsz5 on that little
mite of humanity which is to grow with the
growth of our mines, and be some day
known as the Sab initiU" settler of the me-
tropolis of southwestern Colorado. He was
passed from hand to hand, and it was curl
Gus, says the World, to note the manner in
which he was manipulated. Some were
there who wish to be considered in the ranks
of the "singly blessed" who BETRAYED them
selves by the easy grace with which they
6a1cl5d him upon the palms OF their out
l.. .ched hands; others there were who ex-
cited great alarm in the breasts of the doc or
and nurse by the awkward way in which
they grabbed the little fellow and he'd him
up as though ne had = ramrod in his back
and was natural born drurn-maiOr. A
number Of complimentary remarks were
made, after which the crowd adjourned TO the
"wet grocery" establishment across the way.
80 many healths were drank to the little
stranger that a passer- by, not knowing the
occasion thereof, might imagine that Lake
City had lost its calendar aud was celebrat-
ing the Fourth eight days behind time.

ADVENTURE WITH SHARK Paul Boyn-
ton. the famous diver, is writing sketches
of life beneath the waves for the Gentle
mans Magazine of London. In one Of
his articles he tells the following story
OF a rather uncomfortable experience: I
was down on q nasty rock bottom. A
man never feels comfortable on them;
he can't tell what big creature may be
hiding under the huge quarter-decks and
leaves (which grows there. The first
part Of the time was visited by por-
cupine fish. which kept sticking its quilts
up and bobbing in front of my helmet

me, and looking up there was shark
playing about my tubing. II makes you

sheered off. For an hour he worked at
it, till he could stand it no longer. II
you can keep your head level it's all
right, and you're pretty safe il they're not
on you sharp. This ugly brute was
twenty feet long, shoul think, for when
l lay down all my length on the bottom,
stretched a considerable way ahead OF
me and could see him beyond my feet.
Then waited. They must turn over to
bite and my lying down bothered him.
He swan over me three or four times
and then skulked off to a big thicket of
sea weed to consider. knew he would
come back when he'd settle his mind. II
seemed long time waiting for him. At
last he came viciously over me, but like
the time before. too far from nv arms.
The next time 1 had my chance, and
ripped him with my knife as neatly as !
could. A shark always remembers he &
got business somewhere else when he's
cut, so off this fellow goes. 1t is a curl.
