COPPER-BOTTOMED CLIFTON.
BY JOE ORGAN.

With rush of sound the flood came
down
And crushed the Keeling houses;
The dark of night adds to the fright
OF the victims it arouses.
Chilled to the soul with wet and cold
And dread of the flood that fills
Their hearts with fright, through the
murky night
They rush to the heights and hills.
But the day awoke to the steady
stroke
OF men of heart and action.
And soon they brought, with deeds
they wrought,
The people to vocation.
They fain decline all offers kind.
To charity show evasion,
Through local pride their troubles
hide,
And rise to the occasion.
From what. they tell, the blow that
fell
Was a numbing one and tragic;
But the wrecks that strew the scenes
in view
Have disappeared like magic.
The heavens are choked with smelter
smoke,
The sign of rich industry.
We can but read what is plain indeed,
IT'S growing town, and husky.
Your predictions missed, you pessi-
mists-
You cried in agitation:
"The luckless town is out and down,
And ruined beyond estimation!'
Go, crouch, and weep, and sluggard
sleep;
With doleful dreams you're haunted;
The town is rife, with men of life,
Your company is not wanted.
And when you break your sleep and
wake,
Twill give your heart a liftin'
To take a whirl and see the world
OF CopperBottomed Clifton.
And If you lack for potent fact,
From gazing through eyes bleary,
Abuse the town? No, sit you down
And read the COPPER ERA.

Dick Stevens, of the S. & S. Bot
thing works, met with an accident
Monday last, from which he escaped
without broken bones by a hairs
breadth. While driving along River
side his team became frightened, and
by a sudden lurch one of the single
trees was broken, and they became
unmanageable. When near the
Shannon hospital Dick was thrown
from the seat and barely missed
landing against the stonewall of the
Shannon hospital. However, he fell
in the sand, but sustained a badly
sprained wrist, and many bruises
about the bodily, but was not seriously
hurt.
w. E. Mcdowell and John McCrea
had a very narrow escape from
drowning in the Frisco Monday even
ing. They attempted to cross in a
light delivery wagon, which turned
TURTLE" but the boys managed to
make the shore. The team could not
pull the wagon, and finally gave up
trying, and would have drowned had
not Carl Schade gone to to their
rescue. At considerable risk of be-
ing drowned he managed to cut the
team loose and then got them to dry
land. He suffered on the following
day from his long exposure in the
ice cold water, but had the satisfac-
tion of knowing that he had per-
formed a kindly and humane act.
The A. & N. NJ. railroad has been
having very serious time during the
past week. On Wednesday of last
week several serious washouts occur
red along the ella river between
Guthrie and Duncan, and for several
days thereafter the river was so high
that but little could be accomplished
in repairs. The washouts extended
for more than twenty miles along
the river, making it impossible to
transfer passengers. Mail was re-
ceived on Sunday and again last night
and from now on the trains will be
run regularly, but will probably be
delayed by soft tracks. Both tele-
graph lines were also out of business
for several days, and Clifton
was completely shut off from the
outside world.
