OPPORTUNITY USUALLY
TRAVELS IN DISGUISE

l
The thing called opportunity plays
| some queer pranks.
A little boy walking along the rail
road in the Animas canon on his way
to school saw a rockslide on the road
| and knew the train was about due
and If not warned the passengers
would be dashed to their death hun
dreds of feet below. He did not have
much time and quick action was ne
cessary. He ran back and with his
coat tagged the train. The passen-
gers and crew We're saved and the
| railroad company was saved several
thousand dollars. While 1t was an
act for which the boy deserved credit
| and for which the passengers We're
grateful, 1t did not occur to anyone
here that the incident would make OF
| the little fellow a national hero. Hell.
| en- Gould saw an item in the newspa-
pers telling Of the fact and she offered
to educate this little boy, who up to
| the time of his preventing the wreck
mad been lucky to get few months
school. Local news rustlers thought
little of it except for the few para.
graphs of copy they got out of It, A
Denver correspondent wrote quite q
story about It for St Louis paper.
and st Louis writer got Into one of
the big magazines with his story.
while the New York World gave the
matter whole page, In colors al
that. Like many another thing, the
further away from home the story got.
the bigger IT grew.
Now any other ordinary small boy
would have done the same as this boy
under the same circumstances. The
action was not more heroic than
things done by hundreds OF other boys.
1t was the thought OF what might have
been that was appalling. 1t happened
that this act was noticed and recog-
nized by the foremost woman philan-
thropist of the world And so II hap.
pens that this boys prospects in life
are very bright.

The mounted police created quite a
stir at this place by tracing some

The cattle had been driven out OF
Arizona and sold here. 1t is neces-
sary for a butcher In this territory to
give a bond or license and keep a
record OF all cattle bought. This is a
law for the protection of cattlemen
