Of and their curative qualities analysed,

talked of, when Mr.. Falkner. q clerk in the
store, mentioned that Mrs. Joseph Moore was
a firm believer in their efficacy Pursuing
his quest, the Tribune man paid Mrs Moore
o visit the next day.
Among the many good people residing in
Greeley, Colorado. Squire Moore and his

writer's opinions. Through those mediums
he was influenced to come to Greeley in the
early spring Of 1871, and here he has resided
ever since. During his residence in this
beautiful section of northern Colorado, he
has held many responsible public positions,
notably that of Justice of the Peace, an office
which he occupied u~ninterruptcdly for eight
years; and four years ago was reelected to
another term, his name being placed in
nomination at the convention without his
knowledge.
The ncwsgatherer was received cordially

stated that her health commenced failing

refused medical attendance or treatment of

from the family pharmacopGia or dispensary.

FELTS is MISSING.
Some Believe He Is Dead and Others That
He Has Lost His Nerve.

MAN1rou, Colo, Aug. 17.-William
B. Felts has mysteriously disappeared.
His flying machine with which he was
to have attempted flight from Pixies
Peak to Colorado Springs is still housed
Oh the top of the peak. There have
been rumors that Felts' nerve was be.
coming shaky, which were offset by
statements from the professor that he
was waiting for a clear day. Felts
went down the mountainside Friday
after stating that he was going for a
walk, since which time nothing has
been seen or heard of him. His friends
say he has probably lost his way in the
wilderness west of the peak and may
have fallen down a precipice and been
killed or injured. They have been
searching for him since Friday. There
are enough skeptical ones who believe.
however, that the professor had not
enough faith in his own invention to
take the risk.

Putting q Stamp Upside Down.

Folk in general are not nowadays SO
careful as they were years ago in the
matter Of afiixing postage stamps to
letters and receipt stamps upon bills.
and many never note whether the
stamps are the right way IN or upside
down. It was very different, however,
before the rush and roar of this half Of
the century began, for it was next door
to crime, in the eyes Of many. to affix
a stamp with the queens head the
wrong way up. Many were not only
under the impression that her majesty
would feel offended" but that if she
took the matter up personally or told
officials to act punishment could fol.

people who look with horror upon q

Neither way. We sold each word &C.

it was quite a large store, all divided
