She TAPPED the Bank

A conductor on one of the Besseme1
Gals, who has the reputation of being
able to satisfactorily take care of up
ruly passengers, was routed in a
peaceful manner last evening by a
woman.
She was young and portly colored
woman who had evidently taken toe
much of the flowing bowl. At any
rate her nerve was wonderfully cool
and she was the only one in the ca,
who was not moved by the perform
ance.
She boarded the car at Northern
avenue, and, all of the seats in the
closed department being taken, she
was obliged to stand up. taking her
station near the front door of the car.
Before she had time to survey the oc-
cupants of the car the conductor came
forward with his "Fare, please"
The colored woman made hasty
investigation of her pockets without
Locating the necessary fare, when
suddenly her eyes spanked as she
thought of where she carried the
money.
Without any hesitation she stopped
and, raising her skirts, she began
putting her hand down in her stock
ing, money receptacle often used by
women. The conductor very sudden
ly happened to think of trolley rope
needing attention in the rear of the
car, and the passengers began to see
scenery on either side of the track
which was more inter esting than they
ever before realized.
AS the conductor returned for his
fare the colored passenger handed out
the nickle as if nothing had happened
and said: "Gib me East Pueblo
transfer, please, sab "-Chieftan.

A fOurnfuI Wall

In the shade of the old apple tree
I've waited so long, love, for thee,
that the voice ouce l heard grows faint
with each word, till it's barely a
whisper to me. There is no more
buzz left in the bee: the blossoms are
withered, ah mel And the tree that
once grew where 1 waited for you. has
changed to an old chestnut tree.
In the shade of the old apple tree,
where you hear the blamed buzz of the
bee; with big carving knife that
swiped from my wife, am waiting,

three, and an axe and cutlass, you
see; and I'll stick all these things in

Was Too Much for Him

In tent opposite the postoffice,
Mr.. and Mrs. Brinker, of Cripple
Creek, are conducting mission for
the salvation of souls. The various
ministers of the city have been invit-
ed to speak at the evening services
and last Monday evening Rev.
Edgerton, of the Methodist church,
delivered the sermon. He chose. for
his subject, My Mothers Bible "
This furnished an excellent theme for
appealing to the petter side of men
who had fallen into sinful paths, but
who. as young men in the east, were
MS yet uncontam mated with the
worlds follies, and doubtless at one
time possessed bible given by their
sanity mothers.
At the back of the tent, while the
man of God was speaking, sat an un.
fortunate SO full of booze that he
could scarcely walk. Between his
drowsy spells he learned the trend
of the remarks, which undoubtedly
portrayed his former life 1t was too
much for him. Finally, he pulled a
dime from his pocket and said:
Here's dime. partner; don't say
any more" The minister told MIN
he was not talking for his money-it
was for his soul-and he kept right
on, even more emphatic.
The sufferer could not stand it
long. so moment later he aros. and
staggered to the platform. Here
is dollar take that; it's all got.
Now, don't say any more about my
mothers bible. Laying down the
coin he staggered back to his seat.
Rev. Edgerton was much en-
barrassed by the incident. but was
given strength to send the truths
home more forcibly than ever, and
after the service the fellow was forced
to take his money back. As his
conscience was troubling him a great
deal, the dollar probably went to buy
the stuff that wiped out temporarily
the thoughts of his mother or any
thing else, save snakes. .-Montrose
