is ALWAYS a welcome for the traveller who
comes fresh from civilization bringing the
gossip Of the day. The ranchman deep
down in the canyon, the cowboy up on the
mesa. the miner back in the mountains, the
hunter and clalm-holder everywhere WILL
share his canned corn and peas his ven
tson, his coffee or his baking powder DIS
cult with the fellow who can reneVe tne
uonotony of his situation with fresh ac-
counts Of the outer world.
But if you have baggage to carry, look
out. There are two ways of freighting
over the mountains. One is the old
Spanish method with burros; the other Is
by means of freight trains OF OK teams.
One costs about as much as the other and
there is little choice between them in the
matter of speed. But if you are going OH
away from the wagon roads, rs we were
with our little party, the OK teams, OF
course, could not 90 and there was noIhlh3
for it but burros or pack-horses-
We decided in favor Of the burros. The
burro is an exotic in the Rocky Mountains
of the United States. He is Of Spanish de-
scent and has probably neither improved nor
deteriorated in any respect since the days
Of UIoa. We found three that we thought
would carry our baggage. One was q
somber black with silver tipped hairs on his
snout and long ears. We named him the
Friar.
Another was a blue gray. Mr. Higgins,
who sold US the little things, said blue-gray
was the best color in the world for a burro
or broncho. The blue made them tough.
We thought so a week later when old Blue,
as wedubbed him, fell forty feet over preci-
pce into the river below, and floated down
stream few rods and came ashore with his
load safe but very wet. There are no ami
mails more sure-footed than these little DON
keys as they trudge over the rough, steep,
zlg-zag, mountain trails, but old Blue had
struck piece of bad trail and a big rock
gave way with him. These were circum-
stances over which he had no control
The Friar coming behind him sagaciously
turned up the steep rough rocks and clam
bered around the scene Of the disaster. Our
tired beast of burden was Isabel, a dainty
little specimen Of brute patience and en-
DURANGO Her hoofs were hardly as large
as my two fingers, and she looked more like
toy donkey IN a shop window than COM
mon carrier. She was very old, Higgins
said, and so, nearly white. Old Blue being
the largest Of the three carried big cow
bell and led the procession.
The price of our caravan was not appall-
ing. 1t was October, winter was at hand,
and Higgins said cash was more Of an OBJ
;ect than any thing he knew Of. So we
made him very happy by giving him fifty
dollars for the lot. With them went their
pack-saddles. These were homemade af-
fairs cortrived like sawbucks and fashioned
as nearly as possible TO fit the burros back.
Through the tree Of the saddle with long,
stout ropes we fastened on our load of
"plunder."
We were going, three of US, one an ex-
pert miner, to examine some placer proper
ty. There were shovels and pans, hams,
potatoes, canned stuff, bacon, kettles, picks

reach of rats and mice. The shelf, Of any
desired size, is hung from nails or screw

support should be little further apart than
the width of the shelf.
This helps 20 braceit and, to some extent,

all fairly straight and free from kinks. Put
the braces on last and use only one loop for
them. Secure the ends of the wire on the

ABOy Horribly Mangled by Street Car.

While the steam motor and two cars were
making their way to Five Points at .
o'clock yesterday afternoon, lad named
Jesse McQuaig, who had been amusing
himself by jumping on and off of the
moving train, made a misstep and fell
between the cars, and was instantly killed
There was no one on the train that saw
him fall, and the rear car passed over him
without any noticeable jolt, as it was heav-
lily loaded. Someone on the sidewalk hailed
the train and told them they ''had left boy
back there" when the train was stopped
and the conductor went back to see what
was the matter. He found the mangled
form Of the boy lying beside the track, and,
he thought, breathing. The accident oc-
Cured near the corner of Second and
Main streets, and the boy was taken back
to town, and as he had expired by that
time was taken to Larkin & Lindquist's
undertaking rooms, where he was iden-
titled.
In the absence of Coroner Larkin. the in
quest was held before Judge Dee in the
county court room. The evidence went TO
show that the trainmen had used due dill
gence in guarding the platforms, and that
no one was to blame.
The funeral will be held this afternoon at
$3.50 o'clock from the residence of Mr. VII
son, on Green street. The street car com
pany bears the expenses.

Englishmen have settled in ireland and be-
come more Irish than the Irish themselves -
but an Irishman never becomes an English
man. This assimilation and DISSEMINATION
is accounted for only by the justice of Pa
gan Rome, Christian France and Catholic
Ireland and the injustice of Catholic, Puri-
tanical or Reformed England. English
civilization towards Ireland meant eXter
mination.

institutions not English. We have far
sample in Sir Arthur Chichester, agent Of
that Grand Turk, James ]. who wrote that
ut is famine alone that must consume the
Irish as our swords and other endeavors
work not that speedy effect.n Yet 100
years of massacre and misrule have not
consumed the Irish and in this nineteen b
century, Mr. Balfour would exhaust all the
resources of civilization" to coerce a peo-
pie which he knows, judging from the
past, must be uncOnquerable. Ralfour

but his day is near and he and his party viii
have for winding sheet a Shroud of Pigott

broken hearted of an oppressed nation.
Put the Grand Old Man once again at the
helm and Ireland will not be the foe but the
friend of England.

PETITIONS.

Some time since numerousl signed
petition was received asking the council to
take action toward opening block %. the
principal business block of the city, but it
seemed there were others who did not want
it opened, and the names of not few who
were on the petition for it now appear on
the petition against the proposed improve
ment. The petition or remonstrance was
opposed to the laying out of street through
the abOve-named block or any other block
in the city. The petition was referred to
the committee on streets.
The mayor then announced that Mr. A
H. Nelson was present and he desired con
sent to suspend the order OF business that
Mr.. Nelson might speak on the foregoing
subject. Mr. Nelson stated that he had
been agitating the subject for the last six
years. If the work had been done four
years ago it would have cost less by one
half than it would now and if delayed
longer the expense would be corr aspOndingIy
greater. 1t had been argued that the new
frontage would come on the market in com
petition with present values and thus de-
preciate property on the business streets as
they now exist. This he classed as narrow
mindedness and it should not weigh in the
minds of the council against the project.
Looking at it from sanitary point of view
he considered it great necessity.
Major V. NJ G. Silva was also invited to
speak on the subject, which he did in a
clear, emphatic and business-like manner.
He alluded to the additional expense of
laying water and gas pipes and the large
quantities of valuable land in the heart of
the city lying worse than idle He though
it an easy matter to get most any petit n
signed, no matter what the object
The mayor thought there might be some
legal objection to the matter, and asked Mr..
Nelson his opinion. Mr.. Nelson had gwen
the Cmatter considerable study, and was
of the opinion that the city had perfect
right to condemn the land necessary for the
street.
AS the city attorney was present he was
invited to express his views on the subject,
but he announced that he was not fully

IRELAND A BEGGAR

amongst the nations of the earth? Why
are her people discontented! Some say 1t IS
tbe result of Ireland's national faith, but
such is not the case, for the Catholic church
holds forth to the veneratiOn of its children
only those who during lifetime were noted
for Taeir industry in working for the wei
fapSSof their fellow men, and in no countries
do we find more peace, happiness and pros
perity than in the countries where the
Catholic faith has hold of the masses. Ven
ice. San Marine, Austria, Spain and France
are illustrations. With regard to Ireland we
should be really more struck with the fact,
that the Irish people are in existence, when
we consider the terrible resources which
have been employed for their determination,
than their want of wealth. That it is the
Catholic church which has preserved the
Irish nationality Notwithstanding all disin-
tegrating influences, may be proved from
the fact that the moment an lrlSL man loses
his creed he forgets his country.
The true cause of lreland'S misery is the
alien misgovernment of England; even hon
