KIT CARSON IN ITS PRIME.

=. Had seven Thousand Hustling Citizens
where Now but Hundred Remain.
in 1910 you might have Travelled GOO
miles and not have found as lively a town
as Kit Carson, Colo.," said Station Agent
Billv Dunaway the other day as the Kan
sos Pacific train fingered before the sta
tiop house at the now quiet little town
on Big Sandy creek in eastern Colorado.
"Tbis was then the terminus of the Den
YER line of the Union Pacific, and you
can lust bet the camp was a hummer.
There we're over 1900 people here, and
Oover crowd you never saw. The popu-
iotion was made up of railroad men,
cowbovs, mule SINNERS, gamblers and a
preacher.
"The latter was sometimes lonely, but
the 500 other people in camp We're fair
" sociable and managed to have a mod
erately good time, and everything ran
wide open, and in the palmiest days Of
the camp there were IL saloons, dance
halls. theaters and all the other things
necessary to the fabrication Of existence
in fine CAV and bounding west. For two
wears things were redhot, with fights,
shooting matches and lynchiug bees near
" every night.
Some of the old time engineers who
were Jerking steam over the line then
saw a regular daily news item in railway
circles for awhile was to the effect that
q man or two had been hung the night
before to the bridge on the Sandy. The
lvpcbing of man for murder was an
unusual event, but dire vengeance was
vreaked on the petty burglar, horse
thief or other unprincipled offender who
did not have the nerve to shoot, but
sneaked around after dark to do his ne
furious work. When dealing faro, The
gamblers preserved peace and quietude
in the game by wearing two 6-shooters
silently swinging from their belts, and
when in game of stud the pack was
always secured from being blown away
nv one of these same free moral agents
Some stiff games were played in those
DAYS, and when a cowboy came in off
the roundup, or when the freightars
came in from long trip off to Mexico
and Arizona, or pay day on the line
came along, money was stacked foot
high on the cloth.
after the camp had been running in
this way for two years the road was put
on through to Denver, and the crowd
followed. Where once you could see
over ZOO people there are now hun
bred or SO, and all that remains Of the
former glory of this namesake Of old
Kit Carson is the namelcas barnyard
you see up there on the hill, a lot Of
broken beer bottles and desertion."-

Leopard Shooting.

Mr.. SimsOn writes thus Il consider
that exposure to Il leopard on foot, with
due precaution and a proper weapon, is
only fair sporting risk, and accidents
must happen occasionally" Mr.. Sim
son is certainly entitled to speak. He
shot many leopards on foot; he was
twice badly wounded by a leopard, but
on one Of these occasions third leopard
unexpectedly attacked him from behind,
when he had already killed two others
in the same patch Of grass jungle.
Mr., Simson mentions that an old
French gentleman whom he knew used
to go about hunting for leopards with
nondescript sort of dog, half pariah and
hall spaniel when the dog smelled d
leopard, he would cock his ears and point
out from respectful distance where tire
leopard lay, The Frenchman kept on
peeping and peering about, wholly re-

do in the way of attack, till he could

revolution. A general uprising is taking
place throughout the eastern portion of

kept from the public by tho authorities,
started near Holguina on April
"a, when two brothers named

and with twenty followers marched
out Of the little town of Pernio. They
were reinforced the following day by
eighty men from the town Of Velasco.
They continued in the direction of Milas,
near the north coast, where they were
strongly reinforced, and where they sx-
pected to meet expeditions from the
United States.
There are reports of uprising through
ont the districts Of Manxanillo, Holguina,
