The next t~wenty-eight miles is BY two
horse stage, the next ten on wheels be-
hind four horses, the next ten with four
horses and sleigh, then eight miles by
sled and single team. and the las. half
mile on snow shoes.
1t was 9 o'clock in the morning when
u party left Steele on the Anderson and
NUM- stage.-The day was clear, afford
ing a fine view of the Seminole, the
Medicine Bow and the Sierra Madre
mountains. The road was IN splendid
condition and Saratoga was reached a lit
tie after | O'Clock. 10 the evening Hon.
l.. G. Davis took one of Mr.. Ferguson's
best teams and a pleasant drive was had
about the suburbs of the town and to
some Of the near ranches. Messrs.
Brown and Richardson were both well
pleased with the valley and are satisfied
that Saratoga has a bright future.
When your correspondent was here a
couple of weeks since the only way to get
to the mines was to go up with freight
teams, taking two days sor the trip. or by
private conveyance, so it was surprising
to tud a regular stage line IN operation
and that the trip could be made in a day
with ease. The line from here to Head
quarters" eight miles below Gold Hill, is
operated by V. G. Furguson & Co. -Four
horses are used aud the. round trip, half
of which is made on a sleigh, is made
every other day. AS Mr.. Richardson
remarked, these old Cheyenne stage
drivers generally get there" and on onr
return trip Mr.. Furgusou drove this
twenty miles in two hours and forty-fve
minutes. The round triI from Gold Hill
to Headquarters and return is made every
day by Price Farrar with a single team
and sled. TIE day We went up was more
pleasant, if possible, than the one proceed
ing, and the last change, onto snow shoes,
was made about $50 in the evening, and
the hotel vas reached about G o'clock.
sNowsHoEING.
Next morning the fun began aud for
two days the trips to and from the
different mines were ever intermlngled
with the grand sport of snowshoelng.
As stated above the old a1age was re-
versed and the apparent Object of the
party was to enjoy themselves more than
anything else. Every night Richardson
and Brown we're about as badly bnnCed
up as was the writer on his first trip. But
they were always fresh in the morning
and anxious to put on the shoes and take
a run" down the steepest mountain,
There were times when their Cheyenne
friends, if they could have witnessed their
curious antics and sumersau't', would
have enjoyed a more hearty laugh than
any show on earth could produce.
The snowshoes used are what are called
Norwegian shoes. They are from eight
to twelve feet long and about four inches
wide, are made of either pine or bard
wood and are very smooth on the bottom,
To use them requires a movement similar

Herald of July, 1891, tells of an interest
ing event TO occur at that time. The
Herald says:
Prof. James Allen and son have en-
gagements to make balloon ascensions
from Chicago, at the New England Fair
to be held at Worcester and the Eastern
State Fair at Bangor, Me. wedding in
the skies will probably take place at the
latter city.
OF Prof. Allen and his balloon life, the
st. Johnsbury, Republican has this to
say:
"Today is my Fifty sixth birt hday,"
says the veteran aeronaut James X. Allen
of Providence, R. l., yesterday, just be-
fore his balloon went up, land fhis is my
three hundred and fifteenth ascension.
All our family are Reconnaissance are
five of us-and all together we have made
more than seven hundred ascensions."
"When did you make your first ascen-
sion?" queried the reporter.
Sin 1855, in Providence From child
hood ballooning had been a hobby with
me and have made a theoretical study
Of it for many years. My principal rea-
son for adopting it as business, how
ever, was that my lungs were weak and
believed it would be good thing for
them-and 50 it has proved. 1t effected
a complete cure"
"Did YOU ever meet with an accident
in your ballooning?"
''Never but once. That was three years
ago, i'll Haverhiu. There was a heavy
gale and as my balloon bounded from the
earth it was dashed against the side OF
house with such force as to break my
collar bone and couple OF my ribs
That was the only accident l ever suffered
in all my ballooning. / may add that
my experience includes three years in he
Union army in the war for the Union
and after he close OF the war, three
IN he Brazilian army, as balloonist."
Mr. Allen is q we'll preserved man and
his physical condition goes TO show that
