!. THE OLD STAGE DRIVERS /.
ss.ss.-ss..ss..ss.-s..s-.s..+++s-s-...s..s..s..s-

The old race of stage drivers has
pretty>well passed away in this re-
gion. One is still hobbling around
town on crutches. His enemy is
rheumatism in one knee, the knee
that in the old days worked the
brake. If an enterprising reporter
will look him up. he can in half an
hour get a story that win make two
or three columns of most interesting
"reminiscences. for it was strenuous
work to drive stage west of Salt
Lake in the overland days.
Many driver was killed and
some deeds of heroism were per-
formed, in the shadows of the desert,
as splendid as ever made the stories
of the days of lSnighthood.
The old driver. Dan Roberts, is
one whom all old timers know. There
is another one here, Ed Cook He
was telling yesterday how one driver
drove into Deep Creek station. A
man was on the seat beside him and
others in the stage. AS he neared
the station he said to the man beside
him: 81 do not like the looks of
things here Just then an Indian
whom he had often fed, rose up and
shot him through the breast; another
shot struck the man beside him and
ne heil inSenSlDle into the boot OF
the stage. The driver called for one
of the men in the stage to come
from the inside to help him A man
climbed out. and the driver gave him
the leaders reins and said Keep
them straight in the road and urge
them on; | am gone" sank down
and died in the boot.
All the men at the station had
been killed. That was but one Incl
dent of early staging. Those trag-
edies were frequent clear to the
Sierras, and it was only about forty
years ago.
Now men growl at paying cents
per mile on a Pullman, making the
whole 600 miles in comfort in twen-
ty-four hours or less, and the idle
and careless ones do not stop to
think that the foundations of stages
are laid on the stilled hearts
of pioneers; that men who for a
beggarly salary were ready any time
to take their lives in their hands
and face the cold. the heat, the thirst
and the savage that civilization
might, from crude beginnings, build
at last its industries, its temples and
its homes.-Salt Lake Telegraph.

ONLY MARRIED IL DAYS.

Married 2 days ago, at the age of
30. Mrs. Anna l.. Lloyd. formerly
Mrs Worley, was granted an abso-
lutte divorce from VIM. c. Lloyd in
Canon City yesterday.
Mrs. Lloyd alleged that since the
day of her marriage. April s, her
new husband had been SO cruel to
her that there was no living with him
and that she would rather die than
be compelled to continue as his wife.
She alleged that she had not had two
square meals since she was married j:
that her husband kept the food
locked in the cellar, and. further
that when she did get some food on
her plate her husband would take
the plate away from her The hus-
band entered general denial to the
charges and the jury awarded the di.
vorce to the woman
Mrs. Lloyd was the widow of q
civil war veteran and drew a pension
which was cut off by the marriage
Friends will endeavor to have the
pension restored.

TOO MUCH HAT.

The expected has happened. These
big Merry Widow" hats have reach
ed such proportions that a serious
attempt is being made in some of the
eastern churches to get the ladies to
check their millinery during the
church service, to the end that the
audience may be able to see what is
going on in and around the pulpit.
Moreover, pews that have usually
accommodated six persons now hold
only four, because the hats take up
SO much room. 1t is clear that a
crisis has arisen and that the dimen-
sions of all public edifices must be
increased if the usual number of
persons are to be accommodated

No cattle dipping will hereafter
be allowed in the state unless it is
done under the supervision of a
state or government inspector. This

has been made necessary by the at.
