correspondent of THE Chicago Record Herald
writing from Colorado Springs. reports that mos
quitoes are found in mines 1,2OO and even 800 feet
below the surface of the earth ''Experienced
miners tell me- he writes that the MOSQUITOES
sometimes become bad that the men are IN
able TO work. This phenomenon occurs only in
shafts and tunnels where there is stagnant water
but the surrounding country is entirely arid-as
dry as bone-withOut any swannps or ponds or
other places where mosquitoes might breed Mos

THE CHAPERON SPEAKS
Very limp and damp my gown. and the sun is beat
ing down.
And my hats askew above my blistered face
But at least It's consolation and bit of compen-
sntion
To know my lambs are gathered in one place
FOR Dolly Am,rylis and the most imprudent
Phyllis
Are seldom found together in one spot
ana the only relaxation in a chaperOns vocation
is 10 get them all together on yacht
Hence sit here glad though paling. for I never
cared for sailing.
And always had horror OF the sea-
action
Is thing TO be accepted thankfully
Ana dolly, Amaryits and the most imprudent
For once they bear my glance and nlurmur not
And content Is Ger me stealing tthOagh I'm sure
For know they can't escape me on u yacht
