along it's reputation as a breeder Of

A Union Card to Work for Himself

A Union Card to Work for Himself.
Winfield Scott Stratton, the millionaire
mine owner, philanthropist and street car
magnate, Is the most eccentric man in
the West, and the way in which he
Joined the Carpenters union illustrates
this. Recently he went to his new and
palatial home In Nevada avenue, in Col
orado Springs, to see how work was
progressing. 'Tim' Murphy was there
with his force of workmen, for he was
boss Of the job. StrattOn walked in and
looked around. Then he suddenly fell
into a rage at the apparent slowness of
the work. He absolutely "cussed" out
the whole shooting match, and told them
to get out Of his place, and that mighty
quick; he did not want to see their faces
ever again." With that he called Muir
phy aside, and Tim" was laughing with
in himself. for he knew the ways of the
big mine owner.
"'Tim," he bawled out, "you and me
can do more work than hundred of
these blacksmiths." Then he skinned off
his coat. and started to go to work.
Where is your card. VIM" asked
Murphy, half seriously.
card be hanged" rejoined Stratton;
IT don't need a card.''
But this is a union job, Win, and if
you amt got one, it's all off. We can't
work with non union men here, and you
are not union man."
That's so, Tim, rejoined Stratton.
II guess you'd better call the boys hack
and finish the job. And, 'Tim.' put my
name in at the next meeting Of the un-
ion."

SOME REASONS WHY.

That the RIO GRANDE LINES is the
most popular route to the EAST is
evinced by the fact that the greatest
percentage CT transcontinental and Pa

WHY?
BECAUSE

passing through Salt Lake City, the
Modern Zion.
It's scenic attractions are unsurpassed

of boys, ten chances to one. is that we
belonged to it ourselves. We wanted to
make noise and get in the way in the
street just the same as these boys do.
Want Vigorous Exercise.
"When a boy stays in school he is
bound to want to take some sort of Wig
orous exercise. If he is healthy that is
sure to be the case.
IF he does exercise he has to have
some space. He has to use the street if
he can't find a vacant lot convenient.
If he does use the street some of us are
going to have to dodge him or stop awhile
to let him play.
II am just thinking as I stand here
that Montana and Galena streets may be
just as good place for the boys to play
as another point and that we might just
as well be waiting for the youngsters to
have their sport as for other people to
wait.
THE fact is, think, that the most Of
US are perfectly willing to wait. It does
not matter much If it makes a dollar or
two less so the boys have good time.
That may be rather poor philosophy, but
1t is the way feel about it at present"

LEAPFR0G GAME IN STREET
Older People Tarry at the Corner Of
Granite and Montana While
the Sport Goes On.

"Boys don't change much as the years
go BY" said man who was In q party
Of people at Montana and Granite streets
last night.
The youngsters who occasioned the re-
mark were about a dozen in number, and
they were engaged in the old-fashioned
game OF leap frog. The boys were
strung out along the sidewalk and mo-
nopolized the most of it.
A dozen men waited and watched the
little fellows disport themselves. There
was no complaint among the older peo-
pie because the way was blocked. They
seemed satisfied to linger while the boys
had their fun.
1.-THE game looks little foolish at my
age" continued the gentleman who had
made the first observation. ''but 1t used
ITO be just as much fun for me as it now
appears to be to those little fellows.

fellow back to the old days when a day
seemed like more time than a week does

we are likely to declare that there is no

are cartooning the proposition ad-

a good one. The hard-working farm

on the farm, and her position has
