RECORD -StOcknan-
OF all the expensive imposi,ions
ever foisted upon a legitimate in
dustry in the guise of protective pa
ternallstlc government, this mango
inspection farce is the limit 1t has
cost the cattlemen of the West far
more than they ever lost through the
man re when 1T was at its worst, and
as matter of fact all of the expense
and trouble has been for nothing, as
the mango is about as prevalent to-
day as it ever was About the only
real good accomplished has been to
teach the cattiemen how TO dip their
cattle
1t is not the mango that is worry
ing the stockmen now, it is the fool
government rules and regulations
If they could get rid of the inspec-
ton farce and all the trouble and
cost it entails, the mango could
easily be taken care of.

fAonia Newspaper
Perhaps this announcement, made
Thursday night brought q cloud OF
regret into more hearts than would
the same sad message regarding any
other man in Paonia. For over a
year now John +. McDonough has
been suffering fro m diabetis and his
friends have sadly realized that he
must pass away, nevertheless news OF
his demise was universally deplored.
Mr.. McDonough came here from
Gunnison county and opened black
smith shop which he ran for some
thing over year. During his resi-
dence he made the acquaintance of
nearly all of the people in the valley
and it can be truthfully said that he
never made an enemy He was the
most even tempered and generally
all around good citizen whom it has
been our lot to meet.
He leaves a wife and three child
rem, besides his mother and several
brothers and sisters to mourn his
early death, which occurred at the
age of 33 years. The funeral will
be conducted by the Masonic fratern-
ity on Sunday afternoon at 200 o.
clock.
The News Champion adds word
to this expression of the sympathy
which Gunnison County friends feel
for the family and appreciation of
the many sterling qualities of the
deceased, who grew to manhood at
the Los Pinos creek ranch of his
honored father, John McDonough Sr.

EFFECTS OF THE FOG.
Even Blind Men Lose Their Way
The Ground Sounds Different"

Nothing has such bewildering ef-
feet as fog. Only animals which fin,
their way by scent can get about in
1t with any certainty, says Chums.
Birds are entirely confused by It,.
Tame pigeons remain all day motion
less and half-asleep, huddled up, eth
er in or just outside their houses.
Chickens remain motionless for hours
during heavy fogs. No bird sings or
utters call. perhaps because it fears
to betray its whereabouts to an I'M
seen foe. During one very thick fog
a blind man was found wandering
about certain district of London.
This man was in the habit OF carrying
rotes and parcels, and had scarcely
ever lost his way before. Asked why
he had gone astray, for he was quite
bird, and 1t was supposed that wealth
er would have made no difference, he
said that in fog the ground sounded
quite differently"

surely a woman.

Il am sure of it. Saliceti has only

Barnes doesn't even answer her.
His quick steps are carrying him so
rapidly in pursuit along the dizzy
mountain path that Marina, though
keep up with him.
Their path leads along the preci-
pices, now and again reaching some
little mountain valley through which
a stream trickles between stunted
pines, and about whose rocks are
growing the sweet forget-me-nots and
violets of Corsica.
But as they near the summit of the
mountain, darkness comes also and a
binding mist, cold with the chill of
melting snow, descends upon them,
and enveloping them with a fieecy
sheen, the rocks and lichens about the
path are shrouded from their gaze

Duration of Animal Life.

A great variance as to length of life
appears among different animals.
Some insects live only for few hours,
while fish, elephants and turtles are
frequently centenarians. The average
life OF the mosquito is three days.
Toads usually live to the age of about
Is years, while carp have been known
to reach hundred and fifty. Chickens
live from ~ to Is years; dogs to the
age of 10 and occasionally Is, and par
rots to extreme age, These birds have
been known to pass the age OF 200
years. Turtles are also frequently cen.
tenarians, as are storks, and elephants
are said to reach the age of 300 years

Injured in Sawmill.

Willis Meeks, who was working at
the Bear State Lumber Company
sawmill No. 8, which is located ABOUT
three miles southwest of Womble, met
with a very serious accident Friday
night. The feed carrying the sawdust
from the saw became choked up ana
he attempted to clear it out by using
the small end of his cant hook. Nhlle
he was doing this the saw caught his
cant hook and threw it into his face.
1t struck him on the left side OF his
face, tearing his cheek badly ana
breaking his upper jaw bone.

shrink: Holy Mother Of God, a
ghost,"
For it is the countenance of her
foster father, old Tomasso Monaldi,
whom everyone had thought dead
from the night of her wedding.
But now the goblin recognizes her;
it cries: Marina, daughter of my
heart! you have come to succor your
poor old hunted down Tomasso," and
sinking on his knees, it catches the
half fainting girls hand, and kisses it
.reverently.
You, alive, dear old Tomasso? I'm
possible!" half shudders, half sobs the
girl, sinking down beside the spirit
and looking into his deep, dark eyes
that CLEAN so lovingly upon her.
Two weeks ago, on the morning Of
the tragedy, De Bellocs soldiers re-
that they'd killed you" says Barnes
impressively.
BAH" sneers the ghost; "the ser.
geant, l suppose, told his officer they
shot me. The soldiers fired. 1t was
easier for me to fall down behind a
granite boulder than stand up and let
them shoot again, though it was the
darkness of the early morning. Then
| came up on the mountain here, and
fearing the soldiers would again pur.
sue me, | have been a hermit, de-
