Hnforoe the Game Laws.

Enforce the Game Laws.
Let the statutes in regard to the
slaughter of game for sale be rigidly
enforced. At the present rate of de-
struction it will not be long until
there will not be single deer or elk
within the boundary lines of Eagle
county. A gentleman was heard to
remark short time ago that he was
easily able to kill two or three deer
every day, and that now he scarcely
knew of any at all. This is sufficient
proof for US that such game is rapid.
ly disappearing. If law is worth
enacting it should be worth enforce
nent. and we respectfully suggest
that the first individual who may be
found violating the provisions of the
act referred to be made an example
of. 1t is high time for vigorous ac-
tion.
1t is reported that people living at
Dotsero and thereaboats are becom-
ing incensed at the killing and sale
of deer and other game which has
been going on in that vicinity for
some time in open violation of tho
law. We are reliably informed that
in all certain parties have been closely
watched in this matter and that prob.
ably important arrests will soon
be made. Somebody stands good
show to adorn the inner walls of the
Canon City penitentiary with his dis
tinguished presence in the early fu-
ture, for such work.-Red Cliff

How the Apostles Died,

HOW the AP0St1eS Died,
Many readers, perhaps large ma.
iority of them, old as well as young,
will find new information, so to speak,
in the following paragraph:
st. Matthew is supposed to have
suffered martyrdom or was slain with
the sword at the city of Ethiopia, in
Egypt. St. Luke was hanged upon
All olive tee in Greece. St. John
was put into caldron of boiling oil
at Roam, and escaped death at Eph-
esus, in Asia. St. James the Great
was beheaded at Jerusalem. St.
James the Less was thrown from a
pinnacle or wing of the temple and
then beaten to death with fuller's
club. St. Philip was hanged up
against pillar at Hierapolls, city
of Phrygia. St. Bartholomew was
flayed alive by the command of a
barbarous king. St. Andrew was
bound to cross, whence he preach
ed unto the people until he expired.
st. Thomas was run through the
body with lance at Coromandel in
the East Indies. ST. John was shot
to death with arrows. St. Simon
Zealot was crucified in Persia. St.
Matthias was first stoned and then
beheaded. St. Barnabas was stoned
to death by the Jews at Salania. St.
Paul was beheaded by Nero.-Pu-
eblo Opinion.

The Pulpit and the Stage.

The Pulpit and the Stage
| A recent incident at Cambridge
Massachusetts, has raised new NOR
al question of great perplexity ant
some magnitude. Rev. George A
fewksbury, popular young Congre
gational minister, pastor Of Pilgrim
church, some time ago became 6
widower. After the manner of mos,
men in like condition, especially min
listers, and following the teachings oi
the New England Pilgrims, he in
due and decorous time commenced a
delicate but determined search for a
successor. He seems to have pro-
ceeded in an altogether unorthodox
manner. He coldly passed by the
widows of missionaries and other
c!ergymen. He wickedly ignored
the maidens of varying degrees of
youthfulness, whose Christian devo-
ton has, for some years, been wont
to take on an extra glow with each
successive appearance of an unmar
ried minister. He was cruelty in
sensible to the captiyations presented
at tea parties. He sought not the
counsel of any of the mothers in Is
rael. He profanely walked uncaught
and free past all the nets set for his
clerical feet at sewing circles and
the meetings of ladies' missionary
and charitable societies. He I'M
piously refused to lend his aid to the
fulfilment of the prayers of his dea-
GOES that he might be guided to the
right and the orthodox choice. He
perversely sought and won the pretty
sisters of Edmund T. Pheian, the
comedian. To state that the an
nouncement of the engagement was
Il dynamite explosion to tho church
would be putting 1t mildly. 1t was
an earthquake, cyclone and dyna-
mite eruption all in one.
Could a minister marry an actors
sister and remain Christian? Could
he be devoted to his Divine Master
and to comedians relative both at
the same time? Could he ally him
self to theatrical family and not be
led sstray, Was it not clear case
of the enticements of worldly beauty
triumphing over the heavenly clio
ries? The young woman may have
been amiable as well as beautiful.
She may have been pure and true.
She may have possessed the chris
tianity of kindness and devotion.
She may also have been of the ortho.
dox faith. But what did all those
things signify? She was an actors
sister. Her marriage with the pas
tor would establish sort of friendly
relationship between the pulpit and
the stage. Could that be allowed?
The Church said no. So great a
commotion was raised that the cler-
gyman was forced to decide between
Pilgrim Church and the actors sis.
ter. Like true man, he chose the
latter. But will any other orthodox
Church call him? How will be set
tied the great question: ais it a NOR
tai sin for minister to marry an
actors relativer May not the dar-
ing clergyman be driven by the un-
reasoning Church prejudice against
the stage into Unitarianism, or some

ago we met an old acquaintance
man whom We had known since he
came in with the Greeley colony in
1870. At that time he was poor
man, to-day he is a rich one. In
other words his lands and posses.
sions, together with his bank depos-
its, are worth fifty thousand dollars.
This he has accumulated since first
we met on the cactus plains where
now stands the beautiful city of
Greeley. All these years he has cul-
tivatad small farm less than a hun.
dred acres, much of the time but
forty. However, he has been indus
trious and frugal-has had a good
business head on him, and let slip no
opportunity to turn an honest dollar.
A part of his wealth, we will admit,
has been acquired by the enhanced
value of his eighty acres. To learn
something of his methods we pro-
pounded a few questions, and to
which he replied:
"When l arrived here in the spring
of 70 myself and family moved into
a tent. l was too poor to build
house. The first season 1 planted
some vegetables and corn, and in the
fall fattened some hogs and raised
some poultry. / also bought on cred
it few cows, and from a variety of
small sources gathered living. Dur
ing all these years l have farmed IN
Colorado | have raised no grain. My
farm was too small and therefore l
saw the necessity of growing vegets-
bles and small fruit that would pay
better than the cereals. l have
grown more acres of potatoes than
any other one crop. and have at times
made them net me 800 an acre. Ny
strawberries, raspberries and celery
have paid nae the best.
Continuing the conversation, the
gentleman said: 81 was fortunate
in locating in one of the best locali-
ties in the best state of the Union,
and l have labored to make the best
of 1t. / have succeeded so well that
my neighbors, think well OF me. Ny
rule in farming has been to feed the
land, and in turn the land has fed
me. have made it rule to plant
such crops as paid the best, and let
cheap crops, such as wheat, oats and
other grain alone. can grow cab
bage enough on single acre to buy
twenty acres of wheat, or celery
enough on an acre of ground to pay
for FIVE acres of land In single year.
l have made single milch COW pay
for three milch cows IN the cycle of a
year. In fact l have had no deadhead
crops or deadhead stock about me.
have not worked over hard during
these years but have worked dill.
igently. And the crowning secret
of my success has been owing to the
fact that from the second year of my
settlement in Colorado l have kept
out of debt and have paid everybody
that have had dealings with" -

sew YORK, Aug, 20.
Stocks opened generally at small advances, but
there no life in the list and the weakness in the
trusts caused little decline in the regular list The
declining tendency, however,was of short duration,
and Lackawanna developed con siderable strength
and was followed later by c., c.. c. & St.L Before
noon the regular list generally slightly above

toward the close when the usual reazations set the

day.
Railroad bonds were dull the sales reaching only
$756o0o, of whic $4,000 in the Rock Island
issues. The general tone of the market was rather
heavy.
Closing prices reported over the private wires of
