Didn't Belong to Colorado.


In the sarly days of Leadville there
was a singular character living by
the name Of Major Martin McGinnis.
The major was the important man Of
the camp, and when any distinguished
parties came to the city they were
received by Major Martin McGinnis and
presented with the freedom of the
camp on gold plate. The French
government sent three mining engi-
neers over to examine and to report
upon the mineral deposits Of this To-
cality. They were received by Major
Martin McGinnis, who put them In car
riages and took them around the camp.
As they were going up California
gulch the Frenchmen suddenly jumped
out Of the carriage and commenced
to hammer and chisel upon a large
black bowlder that lay alongside the
road. The major watched them ges-
dculating to one another, and he final
ly said to the interpreter: what do
they mean? What are they talking
about" The interpreter said, '.They
say that rock don't belong here" The
major said: ''The deuce it don't! You
say to those foreigners that I won't
stand for them coming over here ard
running down our country. Tell them
that they can find anything anywhere
In Colorado"
The Frenchmen were right, however,
for this black rock was a meteor and
had fallen from the skies.-Leadville

HILLS IDEAS APPROVED.
Chicagoans Favor Reciprocity With
Canada

Chicago, Nov. 13.-Widespread be-
lief in the ACCESSIBILITY of reciprocity
with Canada is expressed by Chicago
ans as result of the speech on that
topic delivered before the Merchants
club Saturday night by James J. Hill.
Men prominent in finance and bust
ness declared, with scarcely a dissent
ing voice, that they were in entire &C
cord with Mr.. Hills position.
1t was pointed out that betterment
of trade relations with our Northern
neighbOr would mean an extension of
the Canadian market to the products
of the United States and that such an
extension would particularly benefit
Chicago and the Northwest. Even
men who are not in sympathy with
free trade ideas expressed themselves
in favor of some lowering of the tariff
wall, as far as Canada is concerned.
It was declared that American bust
ness men as whole have lost through
the absence of better trade relations
with the Dominion. Occasion also
was taken to sound a note of warning
that the establishment of improved
relations should not be long delayed,
for Canadians are declared to be
changing to some extent from their
former keen desire for reciprocity.
