George T. Newton has solved a mys-
tery-One that has puzzled him during
all the many years he has been dwell,
or in the widest districts of the Rocky
Mountains. He made this announce.
il, It to Deputy Game Commissioner
Holland. Mr.. Newton is superinten-

County, about eighteen miles north.

sociation, in which are several Denver
sportsmen.
"For years I have been bothered to
know how a mountain lion carried the
carcass Of a deer after it had killed
it's prey" began Mr.. Newton. He
paused as if to allow Mr.. Holland or
any one else present to tell him that it
was no mystery, but no one spoke. Mr.
Newton is the typical mountalneer'
During this interval he held his big,
round sombrero in his left hand and
with the right stroked few struggling
grayish locks that persisted in falling
over his uncommoply white forehead,
He must wear his hat always when at
home, for his face under the line to
which the hat reaches was as bronzed
as an Indians. He sat attentively
waiting for minute or two, then be-
gan:
''But learned all about 1t just day
or two before left home. l had been
up on the trial leading to the Flat
Tops; you know the trail, Holland.
When 1 was up near Rim Rock, near
the end of our fence, I saw noun
tain lion in the trail in front of me,
and what do you think? The lion was
carrying a fine young buck, slung over
his shoulders. He held to the back
Of the deer with his jaws, turning his
head to one side, like that" Mr.. New
ton turned his own head In limitations
of the attitude of the lion.
GAS he trotted along, the feet Of the
deer treaked in the snow, forming the
queer tracks that have so long puzzled
me. I knew, always what the traks
were, but could never make out how
that deer was carried so that more o.
it did not trail on the ground.
"When the lion caught sight Of me
it dropped the deer and skunk off into
the sage brush-they are cowardly
Whelps.
During last summer l discovered no
less than thirty carcasses Of deer that
had been killed by lions and bears.
These brutes have way Of getting
into the park that would surprise you.
The south end of the park, you know,
is fenced, purposely to keep them out,
and they can't get in over the Flat
Tops, where the granite walls are pre-.
cipitate for fifty to seventy-five feet In
places. But the woven-wire fence was
built through a thickly wooded part,
and in places large trees were taken
advantage of as posts. The lions and
bears climb one side Of the tree, until
they are above the fence, then let them'
selves down on the other ide."-Den'

Camden IN. j. special New York
wUiS: Cold chills crept up and down
the back of Judge Armsfroag and the
ofacials in the Quarter Sessions court
this afternoon as Rsbecca Peters call
ed down bitter curses upon them all.
There seemed to be spell in the
court. until finally an omcer plucked
up courage enough to take the woman
across the Bridge of Sighs' to the
county Jail She was unable to pay .
fne Of $100 for telling fortunes. Mrs..
Peters is the woman who was charged
by Miss Jennie Kuhn with failing to
return $37 which she had obtained up
on q promise to return Miss Kuhn's
lover to her. Mrs. Peters advised Mise
Kuhn to skin a cat. boil the carcass,
battle in the water. then take q walk
around a block without her usual ap-
parel Miss Kuhn, hnding that the
charm failed to have the promised re-
suit, demanded the return Of her $37,
whereupon. it is alleged. the soothsayer
violently elected her from the house.
In sentencing her Judge Armstrong
said that 1t was only the fact that 1t
was her first offense that saved her
from imprisonment. The judge warned
superstitious people to beware of such
frauds as Mrs Peters. and declared
that many dupes In Camden encour-
aged people of the woman's class to
conduct the fortune-teiling business.
He warned soothsayers that the court
would deal severely with them IL they
should be brought before It
