GOLDEN, Col, July 26.-The Colorado
Central railroad had one of the worst
washouts and landslides combined in its
history to cope with last night. Yester-
day afternoon a cloud burst about three
miles west of Idaho Springs on a noun
tain and struck the track at place called
Fall River. The water came rushing
down the side of the mountain carrying
with it an immense amount of sand,
gravel and rocks. 1t struck a cabin on
the hillside in which a man named Brooks
was sleeping and wiped it out of exist
ence. The unfortunate occupant has not
been seen since. After striking the cabin
the slide continued down over the track
of the Colorado Central, covering 1t for a
distance of 400 feet to depth of fifteen
feet by tightly packed sand and bould-
ers. One hundred and fifty feet of track
are washed away. The damage is very

Marshall p. Wilder in Chicago Tribune
One fall an old farmer began to feed
up the only two turkeys he had remain
ing. One of them ate everything that
was offered him, but the other went
hungry and kept himself very thin, for
he was an experienced old chap who
had seen all of his family and friends
disappear and knew just where they'd
gone. So he said to himself, s'If | don't
eat anything, L won't be cit to kill, and
I'll have chance to peck through an
other year." So he went on starving
himself until there wasn't much of him
left, except bones and feathers, but just
before Thanksgiving the farmer killed
both turkeys, put big stone in the
middle of the thin one. and sold him to
the grocer for rather more than the fat
one brought. Moral: It's never safe TO
refuse good thing. =, ~
Everybody ought to be thankful
Thanksgiving day. Some people think
they havn't got much to be thankful
for, but they might. at least, be grateful
that things aren't any worse. But
there's a good many that never can be
satisfied. They remind me of a little
boy that | met in the street. He was
crying so hard that he appealed to my
sympathies. "Well, boy" said l, 'lost
your mOther?'

Everybody ought to feel gOodnatured
Thanksgiving day, ought to be friendly

Bear Versus Man.

San Francisco Report.
Two of the crew of the schooner Mar
guerite, of Seattle, met with a severe
accident at Port Muller. OH the north
side of the Alaskan peninsula. Their
names are Thomas Boswell and j.
Schietfelin, and they were ashore pros
pectlng Tor coal. Both were armed with
rifles. They came across a bear and
bOth-fired. Though badly wounded the
animal made rush at the men, and in
the excitement Boswell got a cartridge
damned in his gun. Before Schieffelin
could reload the bear was upon them,
and knocked them down, one after the
other, with blow from It's paw. Bos-
we'll tried to get TO his feet, but the
bear seized him by the leg and crushed
it from the knee down. The animal
then ran away but returned about ten
minutes later, when Schieffelin, who
had recovered consciousness, shot it.

the reward VIII have been ample.
Appropriate Suggestions
Below are a few suggestions for a
Thanksgiving dinner, such as you would
eat in Charleston, $. c., or any old
Southern town, the inhabitants of which
are epicuTeS by inheritance.
Much has been said and written in
deriSiOn of Southern cooking; 1t has
been said that the Southern people ''fry
everything" and swim their food in
gravy" and ''revel in rich pastries, .
and delight in heavy desserts" but
the fact remains that they know
how TO eat, and are the best
cooks in the world. Their markets
contain the first and finest of everything
not dollhouse grown. but fresh and
natural and peTfect-aud the descend
ants Of the old black mammie's know
how TO cook by instinct. This cOmbi-
nation of circumstances is calculated to
produce menu par excellence. Of
course the thought around which
thanksgiving dinner clusters, as nu-
cleus, is the turkey.
The Royal Bird.
The pride of the Southern epicure is
to have this fowl as large as possible
and fat. 1t must he nicely dressed and
then it is ready for treatment. Place i'm
a clOSe-cOVered vessel, with enough
water to cover entirely, and boil until
slightly tender. While it is boiling pre-.
pare Tue dressing as follows: Roast q
pint of large chestnuts i'm their shells,
stirring them occasionally, so that they
may be uniformly toasted. When brown
shell and pound fine in mortar. Throw
into large bowl and add three stale
grated rolls (Or that have been softened
by steamlng and free from lumps). and
three corn mullins, one pint fresh
oysters with their liquor. one small
onion shaved line, two sticks celery cut
