TOURISTS
IN AN AUTO
Rev. C. N. Douglas and 7. B.
RenneII Enjoy Exciting Trip
From Denver.
LOST ROAD AT TIMES
Steep Grades, BouIders and Slide
Rock, No Barrier to the Horse
less Vehicle.

Rev. C. M. Douglas of New York
City, and his cousin I. B. Rennell or
Denver, reached the Capital City Sat
urday night in an automobile. Mr.
Douglas has been spending the sum-
mer in the Territory, studying the In
dians He was recently joined by his
wife. The automobile was driven
through from Denver by Mr.. Rennell,
the 500 miles between Colorado's cap
ital and Espanola, being covered in
FIVE days. In referring to the trip Mr..
Rennell said:
1--WE left Denver with everything
favorable and had no trouble in max
ing Pueblo in seven hours, averaging
25 miles an hour. Part of this was
travelled at better than 30 miles an
hour. The roads were generally fair.
We were lost at Salida, and took the
wrong road, which resulted in our
striking some bad places, and some
what lengthening the trip. At Pueblo
we mistook the fair grounds for the
ball park, and merrily bowled eight
miles in the wrong direction. We had
to retrace this distance before we
could get on the right road.
From Pueblo the road bed was
adobe and we ran into the holdover of
a tremendous rain storm 1t was get
ting pretty dark and as we were con-
tlnually striking washouts, in one
place whole bank and bridge being
gone, leaving hole long enough to
drop train of box cars in and still
look hollow. We made run for it,
and succeeded in pulling through the
slime and mud, but concluded that we
had better put up at the next ranch
instead of making Walsenberg, as at
first planned. We struck the WALDORF
Astoria of the west, (Fischer's ranch),
and that night did good work digest

ing the dough and leather we had for
supper, to say nothing of trying to be
comfortable on bed of slide rock.
"The next day we left this Noah's
Ark at 1880 o'clock and struck the high
spots for Greenhorn. The mud grew
worse and worse as We pushed along,
in some places being foot deep and
very stiff, and hard to get through.
We only averaged ten miles an hour
through the mud. Finally we reached
the divide and by the aid of micrOm-
eter miscroscope, discovered the city
/ of Greenhorn. The natives of this
metropolis switched us off our intend
ed run for Pass creek, to cross the
range, stating that the road was inn
passable.
I'VE ran up over the divide toward
Walsenberg, and struch very bad
roads by the wholesale getting into
the quicksand once, which made as
look like monkeys. However, our own
engine power pulled us through, and
we pushed along until the road abrupt
~
away, leaving gulch twenty feet deep
and fifty feet wide, with perpendicu-
lar walls, and nothing without wings
could possibly cross it. We opened a
fence and ran over two sections of
ploughed ground, frequently having to
turn out half mile to miss gulches,
to the road on the other side. Here
we crossed the main gulch over a
rickety bridge only to find the bridge
gone at the next one. There was moth
ing to do but back off 100 feet and
rush it, which we did successfully, but
not altogether painlessly, as the bump
on dropping into the gulch was fierce.
I'VE followed the telephone line In
to Walsenburg, without any further
real excitement, only little anxiety
now and then about the right road.
When we reached Walsenburg we dis
covered that in rushing guiches We
had broken one leaf of the left hard
