A Cripple Creek Incident.

Denver Times.
 He was just in from the East, and the pattern Of his trousers were such that even the dogs regarded him with suspi- cion. He was walking ahead of fair girl his Cripple Creek cousin. as they climbed the hill he caught his breath and held it with an effort. The beautiful girl be- hind him was the first to speak. She had been debating whether to call him down for walking in front of her or heave a powder against his shoulder blade. Finally she took another course and got him.
 This light air don't agree with you" she observed sweetly.
 Perfectly" he gasped, using up all the atmosphere he had on his person.
 ''Is that so?" she gurgled sarcastically. Why your pants are so loud l can hear them clear down here
 The man started slightly. intending to freeze her with a glance. until it occurred to him that such course might require air, and so thinking, he dragged his leaden limbs skyward.

MRS. MARY FRIsB1E HouGH.


 A short time ago there was gathered in this city little company of sympa- thizing friends to pay the last sad trib- ute of love to one whose life had lasted almost century. Mrs. Mary Frisbie Hough, born in Branford, February 21, 1903. She married August 22, 1888, Rev. Alfred Hough of the same place. He was ordained May 20, 1885, over a church at Vernon Center, New York, where he remained until his death May 2S, 1889. Mrs. Houghs years of married life were very short; left with two lit- tie children, the oldest only three and a half, and the youngest not quite two years old. She came to this city in 1S41, and has lived in the house where she died for fifty-one years. One-half a century in one house and that not her own--it is seldom that one has tenant that length of time. She was a kindly neighbor, a true mother, leading her two little ones in the ways of the Mas l ter both by precept and example; good l to the poor, interested in all good works just in all her dealings with every one she made many friends. When she first came to this city she united with the College street church, but afterward changed to the First church in the time when, Dr. Bacon was pastor, and from that time until the close of her days on earth, was one of it's most faithful members. Nearly fifty years ago a member of this church, she lived to see most of those who were in the church when she united there, pass over to the eli oi, ,,i, that was there when she left off attend ing church, for she had been confined to the house for the last eleven years.
 Her, youngest daughter married and left home, is widow now with six children and three grandchildren. The oldest daughter, Miss Harriet w. Hough, has been all these years the thoughtful caretaker of her mother, and for the last twenty years has been with her constantly. It was a great pleasure to the friends who knew Mrs. Hough to see her in her home. None knew her but to love her, no one met her but came out from that home feeling as though they had been in the presence of one who dwelt near an abided with the Heavenly Father She could see put Qllllly WlLn one eye, the OlHeT en- tirely sightless, hard of hearing, yet was very much interested in all that was taking place in the world about her.
 Her daughter was her interpreter. She never failed to welcome her friends and always had a word of love for the way in which the Heavenly Father was leading her. The confidence and trust that she always had in the Christ love that had been her stay and support for these many years was most beautiful to see. Mrs Hough was woman of strong character. Her trust in the Mas ter began in her early life, and during these many years she has proved that He is the Guide of the widow and the Father of the fatherless. She never
