ZNFORM4 HON ABOUT THE
UNION PACIFIC X. K.

Its South Park division is over 100
miles the shortest between Denver,
Buena Vista, Leadville, Kokomo and
Red Cliff; over ninety miles the short
est between Denver, Alpine and Pit
kin, and over eighty miles the shortest
between Denver, Gunnison and San
Juan.
Its Kansas division is ia miles the
shortest line from Denver to Kansas
City, Leavenworth, Atchison, St. Jo-
seph and all points east.
Its main line is over 200 miles the
shortest from Denver to Omaha, Coun-
Gil Bluffs, Sioux City, St. Paul, Mimi
eapolis and points in Iowa, Wisconsin
and Minnesota.
1t is over 400 miles the shortest line
from Denver and Leadville to San
Francisco, California and Oregon
points.
1t is the only line running through
trains between Denver and the Mis-
souri, River without change.
1t is the only line giving passengers
choice of two routes between Denver
and the Missouri river.
On the South Park and Colorado
divisions the scenery is unequalled on
railroad in the world. The health
orts are numerous and highly rec
commended.
The Union Pacific system Of rail
ways, centering at and connecting
in union depots at Denver and other
prominent railroad centres, furnishes
to the people of Colorado the shortest
quickest, safest and best route between
all important points.
Pullman sleepers, Horton chair cars,
observation coaches, steel rail, rock
ballast, air brakes, good eating houses
and everything obtainable for the COM
fort and safety of passengers.

The lake that has the highest elevs.
ton of any in the world is Green lake
in this state. Its surface is 1o,2s7
feet above the level of the sea. Pine
forests surround it, and the eternal
SHOWS deck the neighboring mountain
tops. One Of these, Gray's Peak, has
an altitude of 14,341 feet. The water
of Green lake is as clear as crystal,
and large rock masses and petrifed
forest are distinctly visible at the bot
tom. The branches of the trees are
Of dazzling whiteness, as though cut
in marble. Salmon and trout swim
among them. In places the lake is
400 feet deep-E1.
The above assertion that Green
lake is the highest body of water in
the world is possibly true, but the
Green lake that our exchange de-
scribes is not the one to which we re-
fer. His Green lake has an altitude
Of 1o,257 feet, whereas our Green
lake, in Estes basin, between Ruby
Peak and Mt. Owen, is fully 1000 #.
higher, if not more. Eternal SHOWS
deck the neighboring mountain tops"
about his lake, but eternal SHOWS bor-
der our lake, and eternal tiny icebergs
float upon its tranquil bosom. Trout
can't live in it and salmon freeze to
death in fifteen minutes. The lake
water is principally used to make ice
cream in August.

THURSDAY, SEPT. ~, 1881.

Prof. Otto Worth, of Pittsburg,
Pa, writes very interesting article in
the Gunnison Ntws- Dlx'e,at, on the
iron ore veins of the Gunnison coun-
try. In speaking Of the bog iron be-
tween here and Crested Butte, he says
"Another mine which may be men
toned is known as the Iron Swamp
and IS situated about half way between
the towns Of Crested Butte and Irwin
on Coal creek. Tne toll road con-
Meeting the places runs through it.
This mine produces variety of ore
known as bog or ochre ore. 1t is sed-
imentary and has been and is still be-
ing deposited on the side of the noun
tain as sediment from small streams
flowing into the swamp from the
mountain north. These little
pass through and over veins of sui
phurets, which decompose, and the
oxides being carried down by the wa
ter, are deposited as sediment in the
swamp. On the eastern side of the
swamp much of the ore has formed
into mass known as susqueoxide, al d
will, if selected, carry about sixty per
cent. metallic iron, but the great mass
which varies from two to fifteen feet
in thickness, will probably not carry
over forty per cent. of iron, with
trace of silver. This orc can be easily
mined and transported. 1t is situated
four miles west of Crested Butte and
five miles north of the Mt. Carbon
coal mine, but is only accessible from
Crested Butte or Irwin. This ore has
been used as fux in silver smelling
with greatsuccess. Its impurities con-
sist principally of silicates and alumni
ates, the usual characteristics of bog
ore."

too poor to carry their case up where
an authoritative exposition Of the Con-

But perhaps the most troublesome
class Of cases In regard TO carrying

being rashly and carelessly handled.
To cover the whole case. let the laws
be vigorously enforced against carrying
concealed weapons; enforce eur game
and bird laws, and laws against tres

risk Of shooting themselves or each 9TH
