Bio Oil Blaze.

Saturday night the STANDARD Oil
Co.'S pipe line from Independence to
Neodesha sprung leak near Syca-
more. Before it could be controlled
about a Thousand barrels OF oil flowed
out into Elk river near by and along
the banks OF the stream. The oil COW
cred the surface Of the water for some
distance and saturated everything
near. The Standard employees mend
cd the break in the pipe line and as
the suresJ aud quickest method OF
clearing up the barrels OF Oleaginous
waste set fire to it. 1t was fired early
Monday morning and was still burn
ing In the afternoon. Elk river at
that poiut is Yeritable river OF fire.
The chances are that the oil will all
be consumed by evening and the fire
will die down. But while IL lasts the
region about Sycamore and Elk river
is being thoroughly smoked with the
black, thick smoke which emanates
from crude kerosene.

A TRIP TO COLORADO.

I see that very cheap rates are offered
in making a trip to Colorado. su<Iose
We go? We must, however. take ours
even cheaper than that offered by the
railroads. 1t may not be quite so salts
factory. We cannot see SO much, but
we will save many miles Of uresome
travel You see we will just drop down
anywhere we wish and then in an IN
slant go somewhere else a hundred miles
away. You remember among the fairy
stories of the man who had piece
OF carpet which he would put on the
ground, sit on 1t and wish himself IN
Bagdad or somewhere else and he was
there In an instant? So I lay my car
pet. all Of you are on, and away we 30
to Colorado.
Away out to the left we see high
mountain covered with snow. 1t is Plkes
Peak, 14147 feet high. II is the first OF
the great mountains which you see
among the Rockies standing as sen'lneis
"a head and shoulders above the other
giants of the range.
Long before the time Of railroads this
mountain guided travellers, prosp<ctors
and hunters after gold in the journey
as the north star does the sailor on t"e
sea.
The mountain was discovered by Cen
eraI Zebulon NJ. Pike, in 1906, after whom
1t was named.
In 1873 gold was discovered near Its
base and If we were there l suspect we
could still see some signs of the pits that
'ehoneycomeed" It's sides, but no great
amount of gold was gathered there.
It Is great and beautiful as we travel
but look at the top of the mountain
covered as It nearly always is with
snow.
We see It begin to rise IN a whirling
column: a storm of wind must have
struck 1t; the column ascends higher and
higher, flashing back the bright sun
light IN its seven colors We SOC 1t as 1t
still rises, half a mile perhaps and then
begins to spread out like an open UNI
brella. The rainbow eolors fly past, In
termingle with each other If giants
were entwining ribbons 1t is wonder
fully beautiful; look well. for perhaps no
one has ever seen such a sight and we
never will again. We are over Colorado
Springs. and look al the foot OF the
mountain across a beautiful valley; 1t
almost looks as II you could throw a
rock and Strike IT, but II Is seven miles
away. We have never been in so clear
an atmosphere and our eyes are de-
ceived. This city is 5000 feet above the
sea nearly hve times as high as Atlanta.
This broad street to our left leads to
the Garden of the Gods" at the foot
of the only accessible part of the peak,
about miles from the city. At dis
lance the tall rocks look like the spires
OF churches; as you get nearer it looks
as If these gods had rolled all the
great stones they could find In the midst
Of this garden" and left it almost the
picture of desolation. the grave of a
long buried. unknown past. About 9
miles away we can see the top Of the
peak, 1t is warm where we are. being

Is Sc degrees. 4 little above freezing
