Four small boys OF this city spent a
happy day at Lake Manawa yesterday as
they were possessed OF, to them, untold
wealth. The youngsters had been to Fair
view cemetery to watch the old soldiers
place wreaths and flowers on the graves
of their departed comrades On their way
home the four youngsters noticed some
thing shining in the sun in the middle of
the road on North Second street, near the
cemetery gate. The0four made rush for
it and the one who got their first exul-
family held up a., his round silver dollar
The otAer three at onee commenced search
ing the dust and. were rewarded by finding
two more dust covered silver dollars. This
meant rs cents each and, after obtaining
permission from their respective parents
they FASTENED to Lake Manawa TO ride on
the roller coaster and enjoy the other ats
fractions to their hearts delight and until
the whole of the 50 was expended.

coRREcTs AN ERROR.
To the Editor of the Durango Evening
Herald:

To the Editor of the Durango Evening
Herald:
VIII you permit me to correct a
wrong Inference which a little per
sonal in your paper OF recent date
has given to the memory OF Mr..
Charles NJ. Perrin. Mr. Perrin was a
southern gentleman. one among the
many whose fortune took flight dur
Ing the civil war. His beautiful de
yotion to his widowed mother and to
his sisters. who resided in New Or
leans was known only to his init
mate friends He was ever kind
hearted and chiyalrous: ne was gen
ial and general fayorite. and did
much for the social life of Durango
in It's earliest days. He was as ready
TO lend aid 10 the unfortunate. and
to care for the sick, watching over
many a lonely death bed. providing
the last comforts, and paying the
funeral expenses. This the writer
knows to be true. Mr.. Perrin died
alone In a hospital in Trinidad Is
years ago While surveying he
climbed a tree to get a better view,
and unfortunately falling, was so in
iured he became unconscious and so
remained during the cold night. He
was taken 10 the hospital and none
OF his friends knew of the accident
or of the consequent pneumonia, un-
Ill his death few days later,
Mr.. Perin's hair was not blonde, .
and he had no curl on the left side; !"
1t was dark and he was inclined to
badness. He was both manly and
gentle. You have in mind another
Charlie" who went to Missouri
In the early days Mr.. Perrin occas-
ionally built a camp fire on the peak
to the west of Durango and 1t was
soon known AS Perin's peak. Why
cannot the memory of some OF Du-
rango's pioneer men be eommemor-
ated-those who bore The brunt and
hardships of frontier life. and who
mad noble qualities of heart and
head? Why should they so soon be
forgotten? Why need Perln's peak
be commerclalized to "Calumet?"

West supported the Stansel claim on
the ground that when he engaged IN
the tragedy OF January 9th he was
in the performance of his police duty,
and had been vindicated in the trial
which followed by IL OF his peers.
Alderman Casey said that II Stansel
had turned tail that day the people
would have been in with petition
to the council TO fire him.
Ordinance 437. providing for the
refunding OF $4,000 bonds was read
and approved and It was ordered that
blank bonds be printed.
Alderman Casey proposed to illum-
inate the diais of the town clock at
night and Alderman Balster broke In
with proposition to go after people
who are skidding logs over the water
pipe line, doing II damage. The mat.
ter OF the clock was deferred, but not
before Mr.. Casey roasted Mr.. Dalstar.
Mr.. Casey said an ordinance should
be drawn for the protection OF the
pipe line and Attorney Reese said
the same ordinance which had been
upheld by the supreme court in the
protection OF the Animas stream
would hold for Ave miles above the
| source Of supply on the Florida. An
| ordinance was presented to cover the
situation.
Attorney Reese told the council
what his experiences had been In the
matter of securing right of way for
tho nina a m 49,
deeds. A number OF the people
were asking exorhibant prices for
right of way. He suggested hat con-
demnation proceedings be begun. and
that this action be made to cover the
entire field at once. as the city would
have to pay all costs. whether In one
general proceeding or several.
Ordinance No. 429, establishing
and to govern sewer district No. /,
and giving its bonds was passed. The
district is defined as beginning 1t
Twelfth street, running south to
Fourth, west to Railroad street,
thence north along the railway back
to Twelfth.
