Avnlanches in Colorado Continue to
Do Their Destructive and
Deadly Work.

Telluride, Col, March 4.-Two
snowslides came down the mountain
near the Bob Tail mine Monday, the
second burying several men at work
clearing away the debris from the
first Henry III. Martin is missing.
Several were rescued with slight in
juries.
In the first slide the residence of
Superintendent Van Law, of the
Smuggler-Union mine, was carried
away, but fortunately the occupants
had moved out upon instructions of
Manager Collins who feared for their
safety. While force of men were
clearing away the trail the second
slide, much heavier than the first,
came down with a crash, burying
several of the workmen. The noise
of the moving mass gave warning to
the men and they made a dash for
safety. Several ran to a projecting
cliff which they thought was safe,
but were knocked off into the snow
pile by the edge of the slide. All
but Martin, who is thought to be
buried under the mass of snow and
rock, escaped with their lives, though
several were more or less seriously
hurt. The worst slide of the many
that have run within the past few
days is to come, it is feared. This
is the Pandora slide, which runs be-
tween the Bullion tunnel and the Val
ley View mine. It's path takes the
whole trail from Smuggler to the
Hanging Rock and down the canyon
to Pandora. Of late years it has not
run, but on account of the recent
heavy snowfall it is expected at any
moment.
At three o'clock Sunday afternoon
heavy snow, commenced falling.
This is the worst storm of the sea
son and will greatly increase the dan
ger from snowslides.
The bodies of Paul Delpra and Gus
Won Fintel were found Monday in the
third slide on the Liberty Bell. Both
were horribly mangled and almost
unacceptable.

among the ghosts quite contentedly
But at breakfast next morning he was
fain to confess that the spirits had
shamefully misused him by removing
all the bedclOthes. Most peculiar of
all, the blankets had vanished into thin
air. Presently the son-in-law of the
house put in an appearance. and in

Liberty OF Women.

A great achievement Of civilization
Is the liberty given to women. Per-
sonally, l am Il partisan Of unlimited
liberty to women. but | am Obliged to
confess that the liberty which they en-
joy has taken away half the piquancy
there was in making love to them.
Love now is without mystery. without
obstacles to overcome. difficulties to
surmount. without duennas OF all sorts
to eschew. to bride or to dodge, with
out secret meetings. without letters
thrown out of the windows or certain
signals given at ball, without ladder
or disguise.
I.Ove-making is deprived Of half the
charm is possessed when women were
not free. Now the door Is wide omen
and you go in. ,s,u make love to n girl
under the very nose of her parents who
think the sc.ne is quite natural and
proper. They do not frown at YOU.
they receive you with open arms. and
their only hope if there is anything in
you. is that you will win the girl.
Your letters to her are not opened.
You have not to cudgel your brains to
find how you will be able to get that
letter into her hands; you have not to
insert it into tart: You simply write
on the envelope the name of the girl
In full and her address, and it gets
there.

Care of the Range.

There Is great difference between
the ranges Of to-day and those which
were used a generation ago, and which
had to be "blackleaded" ut stated in
tervals to be kept in order. A great
many Of the cooking stoves Of to-day,
with polished tops, need only to be
washed Off with soap and water. Still,
the majority in practical use are black
ened, or, what is much more Objec-
tiOnable, enameled. The last device,
enameling. seems to have been invent.
ed merely to conceal grease and other
stains. Good hOusekeepers have long
ago learned that no stove or gas range
can be kept clean unless it is washed
with soap and water and scraped be-
fore 1t is polished. When grease Is
spilled on the stove and Is rubbed off
quickly with hard cotton cloth it soon
disappears. and if the stove Is hot 1t Is
not necessary to wash it off, A few
drops of kerosene put on the cloth will
often remove an obstinate grease spot.
1t is difficult to get coal that does not
clinker. These clinkers may be easily
removed by putting an oyster shell Oc-
casiOnally in the stove when the fire
is burning brightly. The fumes arising
from the oyster shell clean off the
