Like all primitive people, the
Maories are very inQuisitive, and, in
tho manner Of children, are inclined
10 bring everything TO their mouths
10 test its qualities In the early
days a party Of Maories came across
some bars Of soap, which had been
washed ashore from a wreck Find
ing that the stuff was too sticky to be
eaten raw, they resolved TO cook it.
Accordingly they cuO it up into small
pieces aud sprinkled these pieces over
the sweet potatoes and fish which
formed their evening meal Finally
hey covered the whole mass over with
fern leaves and mats, and, putting
earth on the top left everything to
sake quietly in the ovens TIL the
svening. The scene at that evening
neal must have been very funny.
Not only did the tribe have TO 60 sup
perless to bed. but the whole set Of
ovens was spoiled, and new ones had
20 be constructed before any further
rocking could be done.

The Machine Shops.

Few people realize the impor-
tsnce of the machine shops re-
Gently built by the Oil Well Sup
ply company. The force of
mechanics are compelled to work
overtime every day and in many
instances work until 8 o'clock at
night. Last Sunday the force
worked the entire day on special
order from the Colorado Fuel &
Iron company for its mines in the
outlying district, These orders
are from the west, the same work
that formally was sent east to be
done.
The work in every department
is ahead of the facilities for getting
it out and an addition in the force
of msohinists has recently been
made. Mr.. Brown thinks that if
the demand continues it will be
necessary to install more machin-
cry. The shops have turned out
more work in the last week than
any previous week and the condi-
tions point to probable rush all
winter.
These shops have put n sprag in
the wheels of the other machine
shops in this state, at least in the
way of repairing drilling machin-
cry, aud now instead of the work
being sent east it is done at home.
This plant also manufactures
drilling tools.

AN OPPORTUNITY.

The Colorado Springs Gszetts.
in strong editorial on THE OPP
portunity of Colorado Springs" ="
says among other things:
One of the things that has done
the most for this city is the build
ing of the Short Line to the Grip
pie Greek district No enterprise
ever undertaken by our citizens
has done 30 much for the city as
this, and we see new evidences of
its advantages every day. The in
crease of our population, of our
busin ess and of our industries due
directly to this road may suggest
the thought to everyone interested
in the city whether there are any
other outlets which oan be profit
ably opened up. One of the most
promising along this line would
be the construction of direct
connection with the district around
Florence and Canon City Canon
City is no more distant in direct
line than is Pueblo, and it would
be perfectly possible to build a
line at no more expense that would
bring the mouth of the Grand
canon and the oil and coal regions
of Fremont county within two
hours ride of Colorado Springs.
The addition this would be to our
business interests and the attrac-
tion that it would offer to our
tourists and visitors are 30 great
and 30 evident that they need only
to be suggested in order to be fully
appreciated by all.
