white Peaks aud DARK canyons.

Colorado is a land Of dark contrast, OF
brilliant lights, Of intense shadows; a and
where heights and depths make obvious
the meaning OF the word a%ntithesis; a land
where every mood in mind can find an
answering mood III nature. The high
white minarets OF the mountains, from
whose slender pinnacles float the wind
blown banners OF the snow, appeal with
silent eloquen &c to the lofty aspirations OF
the soul; the sombre chasms cleft by Titan
forces through granite hearted hills,
within whose depths dark shadows thTong
and swirllng torrents dash, speak to the
heart a language that thrills. inspires and
awes. 1t does not follow that these
glories of white peaks and these glooms
of dark canyons preclude the pleasant
intervals, the sunny meadows OF the
secluded hooks, wherein the tired mind
or wearied body may find peaceful rest
and refuge from turmoil and toll. To one
making a journey in Colorado, New
Mexico or Utah, or taking a trans
continental tour from East to West, or
riee rersd, the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad offers accommodations equal in
elegance, convenience and luxury to those
OF any other line with the added attrac-
tons OF the uurivalled scenery along Its
line. Astounding in a magnificent opulence
of the white peaks and Ozark canyons. The
month Of November, 1890, wit
messed one of the most important
Improvements in railroad facilities
that has yet been made in Colorado
and the West. The completion of the
standard gauge OF the Denver x Rio
Grande railroad from Denver. Colo, over
the mountains to Ogden, Utah. which
five years ago was deemed an impossi
bllity, is certainly a triumph of daring
and engineering skill. The new line is by
way of Leadville, ~tunneling Tennessee
pass, threading the canyons of the Eagle
and Grand rivers, giving a view of the
Mount OF the Holy Cross en- route, taking
its trains through Glenwood Springs and
down the Grand river to Grand junction,
thence to Salt Lake City, Ogden and San
Francisco. By this route one is given an
opportunity ia behold the magniicence OF
Eagle River canyon and the marvellous
beauty and grandeur of the Canyon o.
the Grand, The overland train is a mode
in every respect. From the engine to the
last first. class coach everything is bright
and new and of the most elegant style Of
workmanship and finish.
If any reader desires to know more
about these s%tupendous works of nature,
write to s. X. Hooper. general passenger
agent, Denver, Colo. and he will send
you, free OF cost, elegantly illustrated
books, giving a full description of the
marvels of the Scenic Line. STANLEY

American Plays Gaining Favor.

The rapid increase in the number of
theatrical stock companies bids fair to de-
yelop In force what America has long been
tainted with the lack of, native play
wrights. The latest addition to the stock
company list is that of Augustus Pitou. He
will have four plays in its repertory md two
OF them have been written by Americans.
These are "a Modern Match" by Clyde
Fitch, who made a long step toward fame
by writing Beau Brummell," and "Geof-
frey Middleton, Gentleman" by Martha
Morton, the author of THE Merchant"
the plny which won the New York World
prize. Mr.. Pitou says, moreover, that he
intends to do all that he can to encourage
the growth of a purely American school OF
dramatic writing. Billy Crane has ex-
pressed similar sentiments, and both men
are giving practical evidence that they in
tend to keep their promises. America will
by and by be the play producing country
for the world.

which is so light that it Is almost silver

ed young a and his success as a pitcher
has not enlarged his Uranium. He was
born ut st. Louis t~wenty-four years ago,
and his robust, athletic frame weighs 100
pounds.
King began his professional baseball
career in 1885. After playing with clubs
at jacksonville, ILL.,, and St. Joseph, Mo-,
he went to Kansas City in the fall of 1885.
The seasons OF 1887, 1888 and 1889 King put
in with the St. Louis Browns. In 1890 he
joined the Chicago brotherhood club and
materially increased his reputation as a
pitcher. In addition to the remarkable
game already mentioned, King has done
other marvellous work in the box, as the
few illustrations following will show; In
one game this season Chicago only made
one hit of his delivery, in another Gin
cinnati did not get n hit in nine innings
but Knocked out three in the tenth. In an
other game Cincinnati WINS shut out l to o,
with only two hits, and in still another
King shut out Chicago 8 to o n gave
Anson's colts only two hits. Against some
teams, one of which is Boston, King is not
so effective, but his work on the whole
stamps him as n marvel in the box.

Every one in the erstwhile smoky city of

and the baseball cranks the country over
are well acquainted with his name and
style. New York lovers OF the national
game did not kno much about him, how
ever, until a few weeks ago, when he step
ped into the box at the metropolis and shut
out their beloved Giants. He not only
shut them out, but he held them down to
W. base hits, one of which was only a
scratch hit. Still more recently, when the
New Workers were in Pittsburg, King was

Every day, at early morning, noon
and evening, in Paris, you will see poor
people gathering at certain shabby cook
shops in the quarters of Belleville, Mont
martre, the Batignolles and others of the
sections outside the boulevards, where
poverty houses are thickest, each armed
with a tin pail, a pitcher or something
else calculated to carry liquid.
These receptacles are duly filled with
thin but savory broth, labeled from huge,
steaming caldrons, and which costs only
n cent or two n quart. Ihave drunk this
bouillon and found it nourishing and
good. 1t is made of the bones and scraps
of horse meat after the choicer pieces are
sold to the cheap restaurants, and the
very essence and marrow of the meat are
in it, for the boiling is kept up until the
bones are fairly honeycombed and the
meat reduced to shreds like bits of Irvine.
This broth provides the principal ami
NAL nourishment for the average laborer
in the gay city. He adds to it a few
vegetables, thickens it with bread, and
it having, as the cook book might say,
been seasoned to TASTE" makes a palat-

TRENTON, Sept. 10, 1S91.-Thomas
Woodfint. an Epglishman, who has been
working for Clark Bros, this city. was
arrested yesterday by Detective Leahy oil
charge of blgamy made by Mrs. Char
lotte Walker of No. SOP North Clinton
avenue Woodtint WAS married in June
to Miss Jennie Walker, daughter of
Mrs. Walker, after courtship or
few days. She was Il pretty
girl, not eighteen years of age. and
after married life Of only six weeks she
and ner husband were separated through
the influence of girl by the name OF
Alice Basford, who made certain state
ments TO tue husband about his bride.
This Miss Bassford also told some things
which led Mrs Walker to believe that
Woodf1nt had been married before and
had wife living in England at the time
he married her daughter.
After the separation she wrote to her
sou iI England, who followed up the clue
and found that Woodfint had been
married in 1886. to a lady by the name of
Penelope Stringer, in Shelton. He also
learned that Woodfnt's wife was still
living and had q child, but that he had
used her badly and she is now living with
her father. He further learned that
Woodtint was deserter from the English
army.
Woodfint pleaded not guilty, but when
Justice Matneson showed him the certifi
cate and the documents from England
saying he was deserJer, and had COM
pared the tattoo on his arms with the
description sent, the prisoner pleaded
guilty and was placed under 500 bail to
await the action of the Grand Jury.
Woodfint is better known as Thomas
Williams, as he went by that name Tor
some time. When he came to be married
he said his real name was Woodfint. He
at first said it was his brother who mar
ried Miss StrnGer, but when Justice
Matheson read the penalty. $1,000 or ten
years, or both. and he realized that he
might even be delivered to the English
government, he admitted that the charges
were true.
