The reports say that the follow
ng bonds have been Cancelled:


The 1915 cancelled were cancell-
ed as follows:
Some before they were issued,
which means, in fact, they were
never issued at all.
Others were paid.
Others were cancelled by being
paid in by the railroads.
Otherswere cancelled by renewals
under the acts of 1873. 't
1t may also be true that some
were paid, and the coupons paid by
the money raised by the bonds issued
under the act of 1868, so, ,200, 600.
The report of Clapp states, as
does that Of Wilson, that it is i'm
possible to identify ''any exact bond
or bonds outstanding of those issued
under the funding act of 1866 or
1873, into which interest on railroad
bonds accruing during the war or
since 1866, entered from the first
that until the present comptroller
come into Office no accounts show
ing it were kept" REPORT, page
1t follows from this that if any
thing is possible to be done in the
way of tracing up and identifying
the bonds, funding bonds under the
act of 1873, issued for the State debt
proper bonds, all that can be traced,
even they can be, are such as were
refunded under the act of 1873 alone.
The comptrolIers reports do not
show them, but in single column
they show that under the acts of
1866 and 1873, both of the follow

refunded.

Rtu Nve Defines His Position,

The British press has in some way arrived
at the conclusion that the editor of this fash
ion guide and mental lighthouse on the rocky
shores of time Germs cash) is party with
wild tangled hair and an eye like tongue of
fame.
That is not the case, and therefore our Eng
fish co-worker in the great field of journalism
is, no doubt, laboring under popular misap-
prehension. Could the editor of The News
look in upon us as we pull down tome after
tome of forgotten lore i'll our study, or, with
glad smile, glance hurriedly over the postal
card in transit through our postoffice, he
would see, not as he supposes, wild, cruel
slayer of his fellow men, but a thoughtful,
scholarly and choice fragment of modern arch
itecture, with lines Of care about the firmly
chiseled mouth and with the subdued and
chastened air of man who has run for the
legislature and failed to get there, Eli.
The London News is an older paper than
ours, and we therefore recognize the value of
its kind notice. The Boomerang is young
paper, and has therefore only begun fairly to
do much damage as national misfortune but
the time is not far distant when from Green
lands icy mountains to midas coral strand
we propose to search out suffering humanity
and make death easier and more desirable by
introducing this choice malady.
Regarding the pOstoffice, we wish to state
that we shall aim to make it great financial
success, and furnish mail at all times to all
who desire, whether they have any or not
We shall be pretty busy, of course, attending
to the office during the day, and writing
scathing editorials during the night, but we
will try to snatch moment now and then to
write few letters for those who have been
inquiring sadly and hopelessly for letters dur
ing the past ten years. 1t is, indeed, dark
and dreary world to the man who has looked
in at the same general delivery window nine
times day for ten years, and yet never re-
ceived letter, nor even confidential postal
card from commercial man, stating that on
the 9Th of the following month he would
strike the town with new and attractive line
of samples.
We should early learn to find out such suf-
fering as that, and if we are in the postOffice
department we may be the means of much
good by putting new envelopes on our own
dunning letters and mailing them to the suf-
fering and distressed Let us in our abund-
ance remember those who have not been
dunned for many weary year. 1t will do
them good, and we will not feel the loss.

A Mountain OfSilYer.

The Red Elephant mountain, unlike all its
near neighbors, has its rock-ribbed surface
covered deep with dirt and float This was
undoubtedly the reason that no mines were
discovered until about four years ago, when a
practical miner, finding amongst the float some
very rich specimens, determined to penetrate
through the dirt till he came to the
rock bed, which on the sister noun
tains is washed bare. He was rewarded
by finding fine vein, which he called the
sBowlder Nest" and which is already accred-
tied with million dollars output of silver.
Three more mines, which are proving of equal
richness, were afterwards discovered adjoin-
ing the %Bowlder Nest" and were incorpor-
ated into what is known as the 'fRed Elephant
Mines" and now a score of rich silver mines
are pouring their rich ore, all within radius
of half mile, making network Of veins so
nearly contiguous as to justify the cap
ton of this article. ALI the mines on this
mountain are true fssure veins, and the
ore is of very high grade, running from
minimum of $50 ounces to 1000 ounces to the
ton, and the latitude is such, and it being on
the south side of the mountain, work can be
comfortably continued on this wonderful
mountain all the year round. Several of our
solid business men have purchased mines on
this mountain, and are vigorously developing
them The Red Elephant mountain is on the
Colorado Central railroad, four miles from the
fiourishing city of Georgetown in the county
of Char Creek From this little county of only
two townships we see over 100 mines at pres
ent represented-with rich specimens-at the
great Mining fair in Denver, Col

Reduced Her Fat.

According to the veracious chronicler of The
San Francisco Chronicle, a young woman of
that city was immense stout and had tried in
vain to reduce the weight which was becoming
almost insupportable. At last relative of the
family who had returned from Africa fur
nished her with some anti-fat remedy, por-
ton of which was said to be made of the colo
bar bean. On leaving for the east last May he
handed it to her, with directions for taking it,
and cautions against an excessive dose. She
began it, and at once grew smaller, not slowly
and imperceptibly, but rapidly and visibly.
Every day she saw the wane of her bulk, and
Rugged her thinner self for joy. Her
spirits grew buoyant as her weight
grew less, and one Sunday morning she
surprised her parents by bounding down
stair three steps at leap. Two dressmakers
were employed all the time taking in" the
dresses of the young lady, but notwithstand-
ing all their pleating and tucking her clothes
hung on her, as one of them said, "like shirt
on a bean-pole." She startled the whole
neighborhood by tripping along the sidewalks
a convalescent from dropsy, and to all Won
dering remarks replied only by smile AS
the days went on, however, and the condensa-
ton of their daughter showed no signs of COM
ing to stop, her parents began to grow APP
prehensive, and peremptorily ordered her to
desist from taking any further doses. But it
was too late, she was "thin as lath. She
glided about like ghost Medical attendance
was summoned, but the girl, dwindled and
ebbed until the other morning, the mother
stole into her room, uttered loud shrek and
fell senseless to the floor, Her husband
rushed in just in time to see an intangible
something that lay in bed shiver, grow indis-
tinet and disappear. His poor girl was gone,
grief of her parents is that they cannot give
their lost child funeral, for thero are no
remains.

Husband Poisoners.

DemOreStS Monthly.
A most extraordinary story of crime is that
which comes from Hungary Of an old Gypsy
woman, Thekla Popor, who it is said has
poisoned one hundred men, at the instance Of
their wives. The old Gypsy, it is claimed,
used red-colored liquid which left no trace,
the victim dying apparently Of some ordinary
disease. The accuser was the old woman's
daughter, who feared death herself, after
quarreling with the mother All the custom
ers of the old poisoner were women, nor were
they always wiyes. for some young girls who
grew jealous of their sweet-hearts, put them
out of the way, with the drugs furnished by
Mother Popor. For two years this terrible
trade prospered amazingly. The case proved
against her was of JocZa Kukin, rich peas
ant. The wife was arrested and lodged in the
same cell with the old bag who furnished the
poison The prison was SO arranged that the
talk of the two women could be overheard
The magistrate heard enough to convince INN
of the gilt of the accused. Among other
things Kukin's widow said: swell, l an
young and pretty, and he was old ana t to9s
