WEDDED0N SUMMIT
'0F A LOFTY ROCK
PLUCkY DENVER GIRL WOULDN'T
TAKE A DARE FROM YOUNG
MAN ON CASTLE HILL.

DENVER. Aug. 3l.--"I dare you to
marry me right here and now on this
rock" said Louis l.. Stephens, of this
city, to Miss Pearl Maxey.
II never took q dare in my life," re
piled the girl "and you know it-muct
less dare to marry you. Do you
mean it?"
She glared at him almost fiercely
and he knew that she was game. Bu'
SO was he.
Il mean just that he asserted
doggedly.
Then you're taking an unfair ad
vantage" said the girl, and I'll mar
ry you at any time or place you name.
That settled ii, and after hurry
call for minister tStephens having
been carrying the license around ir
his pockeD. Miss Maxey became the
bride of Mr. Stephens on the summit
of Castle Rock, near Golden, yester
day afternoon. There was a party o.
friends with the couple. and they wit
messed the whole proceeding. Wher
IL was over, the boldest man of the
party stepped forward and said:
"Of course we're all privileged tC
kiss the bride?"
"Oh, ! suppose so.' conceded the
victorious husband, with natural re
luctance.
How about the rest Of us?'
This query came brazenly from an
other stranger.
Certainly not responded the hus
band. glaring at the crowd OF 300 that
Witnessed the ceremony.
So the strangers had to be content
with inducing a grocer to open his
store on Sunday and sell them rice
enough to bury the adventurous cou
pie, IL they had not been active enough
TO wiggle out of II.
II was the manager of the resort
Charles f. Quaintance, who hunted
up a minister for the function. He
obtained the services of the Rev. F.
NJ. Mccormick, who climbed the rock
and performed the ceremony. The
couple took the 5: 80 train for Denver
and arrived here. not much the worse
for rice, on schedule time.

SOCIALISTS.

CHICAGO, Aug. 31.-Soeialists who
objected to Interruptions OF the speech
OF Eugene " Debs a. the Socialist
picnic at Lemont. ILL.,. "treed" John
Peterson, owner OF the park. on the
tin roof OF one OF his pavilions for
half an hour. Several ultra-enthus-
iastic Socialists had few minutes
earlier attempted To toss the park
owner into the arms OF several OF
their wrathful comrades upon the
green sward
The opening gun" speech OF Mr..
Debs had gone wide cf it's target on
account Of Mr.. Peterson's inthrpola-
tons. and about half the audience di.
rected its attention to the occupant OF
the roof. Several volunteer speakers
succeeded in dispensing the crowd,
and after being marooned for half an
hour Mr.. Peterson descended. with
evident trepidation, and retreated to
the interior OF the pavilion.
The interruption of Peterson came
when Mr.. Debs was rounding ont an
excorlation OF the Republican and
Democratic parties before an audience
OF about 1000. About 80 OF the more
venturesome had scrambled 20 the
roof OF pavilion about so feet from
the speakers stand Every point OF
the orator was being emphasized by
the vigorous pounding of their heels
upon the tin roof OF the structure.
Wearing special policemans star,
Owner Peterson clamhered upon the
roof and ordered the intruders 10 get
down After being loudly jeered and
badgered and kept on the roof, he
gave up trying to handle the crowd
and came down.

WILL CLEAR SPACE
ON BOUNDARY LINE
UNRESTRICTED STRIP OF LAND
100 FEET WIDE TO SEPARATE
ALASKA AND YUKON

OTTAWA, Ont, Aug. 31.--The gov.
eminent OF Canada has concurred In
proposal OF the United States au.
thorities for the reservation OF a strip
OF ldnd. sixty feet in width. along each
side OF the international boundary
line, between the Yukon territory and
Alaska, similar TO that recently laid
out along the Mexican boundary by
proclamation of the president OF the
United States.
Ii Is considered that such strip
will be Of great service In protecting
the revenue and In the enforcement OF
the law generally ft is thought ad.
visatle therefore To at once reserve
the land necessary. and prevent entry
upon Il or the erection OF structures
upon Il. except railways. aqueducts,
canals and other works OF a Iublic
character.
Part OF the rights OF the strip OF
land mentioned Is vested in the prov.
ince Of British Columbia, but 1t is con.
sidered that the province will be will
ing to cooperate with the Dominion.
In it's memorandum on the subject
the Dominion government has suggest
ed. also, that steps be taken to make
a similar reservation along other parts
OF the international boundary which
besides extensive stretches OF water
boundary comprises some 1900 miles
of land On the 400 miles west OF

eminent OF British Columbia has al

POLO PONIES THAT
FETCH BIG PRICES

ponies IN rounding up cattle makes
them sure-footed, intelligent, aggres-
siyc and courageous. These ponies
are worth from $3.50 to 81 900 to the
ranchman. They are not sent east
with the ordinary ponies for sale. but
are disposed of privately.
There are not more than dozen
men who bring the polo ponies on
from the west The shipment of
ponies is consigned to Long Island.
Westchester county and Brookline,
Mass, places where the polo playing
contingent reside. After reaching the
east the ponies usually sell readily.
There is always a. brisk demand for
this class OF horses. One Westerner
recently sold three carloads in three
days and then returned home with
$4,000 in his pocket The fsvorite

mixed-bred Westerner ranch pony the
better OF the two. He has plenty OF
speed and can gallop on the hard turf.
while the English pony is accustomed

Many OF the better class of polo
ponies are the results OF transfusiou
OF good English blood by mating stall
lions from abroad with American
Ia1ch mares. Another cross with the
trctter has been productive OF good
results, and the foais- have shown

Many American polo ponies and

ANOTHER SLASH
IN THE SALARIES
TTi-State Limit Finally Fixed
at $1,000 That League
May Pay

HARRISBURG. Pa. Nov. 20-Before
the Tri-Statc League session was al.
iourned. shortly after . o'clock yester'
day morning. the question of the sal.
arv limit was again taken up, ana
when the matter was definitely settled
the figures adopted the afternoon be
fore were again cut and the salary
limit FOR 1903 placed at $1,000 per lnoath,
with $500 for the high Individual sal
arv.
This step was taken only after a
long discussion. in which the represent
atiyes looked to the future in making
plans for putting Tri-State baseball on
a paying basis.
Every representative present is con-
fdent that the sixteen players now on
the baseball blacklist will be reinstates
in order 10 help the league along. ana
with those high-salaricd men out of the
league. lower salaries can be made the
rule.
The radical stops taken both on the
salary limit and the guarantee system
were freely discussed in baseball cir
cles. and the club owners are confident
Il is the first step toward putting base
ball on permanent basis in the Trl-
State cities.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE

Lillian Mortimer's latest melodra-
matte Offering "Bunco in Arizona" was
the attraction at the Grand Opera
House last night and it drew one of
the best houses of the season--also
seemed to please better than almost
anything yet offered i'm the way of pop
ular priced plays. IL is a thriller from
start to finish. Miss Mortimer has
succeeded in giving a fairly realistic
picture of the west as it is today in
some sections. and has drawn on h.r
