zEB WISE AND THE WOLVES.

Meeker Review: 2. B. Wise, who
is feeding cattle on the Walbridge
ranch. when returning from milking
Thursday morning. saw two gray
wolves in the county road. Just at
the weaving corral-as though they
were picking out the best veal in
the bunch.
Mr.. Wise succeeded IN getting his
rifle before the wolves made their
getaway. and shot the nearest ami
NAL In the neck. He then pulled
down on the second wolf. only to find
that he only had one cartridge in the
rife.
BY that time the wounded animal
jumped up. and Mr.. Wise set his
dog Keno on it, and there was the
flercest fight you ever saw. both ami
mails rearing up on their hind legs
and fighting for dear life. The dog
finally killed the wolf.
The wolf that made it's escape ran
to the cedars and gave its war-whoop
thanking its Lord that Mr.. Wise only
had one shell in his rifle. else there
would have been two strange faces
in wolf heaven that morning.

Mr.. Phillips and a number of gen.
tlemen had banded themselves into
a company to make an effort to re-
cover a great treasure belonging to
the United States that was lost in a
Pacific Mail steamship Off the coast
of Mexico in the Pacific ocean in the
early part of 1868. The ship set
sail from San Francisco carrying ST.
100000 in coined gold from the San
Francisco mint. on the northern
coast of Mexico, at point known as
ManZanillo, the ship foundered and
was driven ashore.
Several years later, after the close
of the civil conflict, the United States
government recovered about $780,
900 of the gold coin.
With the consent of the govern
States, Mr.. Phillips and his company
have undertaken to dig for the gold
coin contained in the ship. They had
built large pier out to the point
where the ship was run aground on
the shore and were working when a
great storm swept away their pier
and several lives were lost.
The last letter received from Mr..
Phillips was on December 2S, and,
as he was a frequent writer to his
business associates in Denver. they
regard his silence as very significant.
His family is at Danville. ILL.,, and
they have become greatly alarmed at
having no word from him.
John Z. Phillips was for many
years engaged in the newspaper busi-
ness at Crested Butte, In Gunnison
county. He owned and edited the
Crested Butte Pilot for number of
years. Fortunate investments in
mining at Cripple Creek made him
Independently wealthy, and he was
one of the many newspaper men OF
the state who made good in their
mining ventures. Mr.. Phillips was
a likeable man and had a host OF
warm friends. Several years ago he
| spent a great deal of time in this
city. watching over his realty inter-
ests here. II We are not mistaken,
he was for time director In the
Grand Valley National Bank of this
city, until he sold all his interests
here. e
II he has lost his life in the un-
dertaking, which was not wild
goose chase, as money had been OBJ
tanned by the government of the
great hoard that had been lost, there
will be general regret throughout
the state.

One of the most interesting attrac-

son is Augustus Pitou's fine produc-
ton of Ragged Robin" with the ever
popular Chauncey Olcott in the star
part 1t will be here Oct. 8. The
piece is the product of the labors of
Rita Olcott, the wife of the star and
Rida Johnson Young. In writing the
play, the two authors have followed
the Celtic style of the National the
alter in Dublin, where the Land of
Hearts Desire and other plays by
Yeats, Russell, Lady Gregory and
lights of the new Irish literary move
ment have been produced. There is a
charming Interviewing of myth and
folk tale with the human interest in
the story that will bring one back to
the days of the Irish fairies. Mr..
Pitou never gives us poor produc-
ton. and in Ragged Robin" he has
taken full advantage of the fairy ele-
ment to create some scenic effects of
greater beauty than has ever been
seen in Irish Drama. There is an ex-
cellent company and Mr. Olcott has a
bouquet of new songs of the daintiest
and catcliest kind.
