TIE OTERO BROS.

and Copper Mines.
In the corridor of the Southern Hotel last
night, a reporter ran across three gently
dressed young men, who appeared and
talked far more like under graduates. from
some Eastern College, than like real tough
men. But real tough men they must be, for
but few days ago they were released from
a Jail in New Mexico, and but few days
prior to that, armed with Winchester rifles
and accompanied by ten trusted friends,
they attacked mine in Santa Fe county.
The three young men were the Otero
brothers, and Mr.. William A. Vincent one
of their lawyers. Mr.. Page Otero is a grad
uate of the st. louis University and his
family are well known in the city.
The story told of their experiences regard

Mountains, forty miles from Santa Fe, one
of the richest deposits of copper. gold and
silver in the country, Is full OF interest.
Their father in looking over his papers

IMPORTANT If TRUE.
Remarkable Experi-nce of a st. Louis
Party in the West.

Party in the West.
A gentleman Just returned from the West
relates an amusing experience. While in
Montana he joined surveying party and
with it started out for trip across portion
of the plains, leading them some distance
from civilization. Towards noon, when out
of sight of any habitation, the party noticed
storm approaching. The black clouds
were chasing one another across the sky
with rapidity that warned them that the
rain would be upon them within, at the most
a very few moments.
They had made no calculation on storm,
and were entirely without protection. Ii
they should be caught without shelter, and
there seemed no escape, their clothing would
be drenched with the rain and they would
be obliged to travel in this condition for the
balance of the day. No alternative was ap-
parent, and they were preparing to meet
their fate, when brilliant idea flashed
across the mind of one of the party. Close
at hand was rocky promoDtary, In whose
base were several long, but narrow, assures.
"Why not" he suggested, remove the cloth
ing and stow it away where it would be kept
dry. Whatever water might fall upon them
would not injure their skins" Quick action
was a necessity, for already they could see
the storm approaching.
In minute every man stood clothed in
nothing but his native modesty. the clothes
were quickly slowed away and the jolly
crowd rushed back tothe wagon and tumb
led in between the wheels that they might
be protected as much as possible by the wag
on bed. Then they huddled together and
waited for the storm. And it came, not il
gathering rain drops, but in great big frozer
