RIO GRANDE PASSENGER
TRAIN HAS NARROW ESCAPE

Denver. Colo. Feb ia Denver IL
Rio Grande passenger train from Pu
eblo for Denver narrowly escaped run
ming on to a burning bridge just east
of Palmer Lake at $50 yesterday
evening. The engineer and fireman
noticed the flames in time to stop the
train. and an examination showed
that had the train tried to cross, it
certainly would have been wrecked.
The cause Of the fire is unknown.
The most likely theory is that the
flames caught from a FIRE started un-
derneath the bridge by tramps. who
were endeavoring to warm themselves,
although there. is a rumor that the
fire was started with the intention OF
wrecking the train for the purpose OF
robbery.

ARE
STIRRING THINGS UP

Our congressman. just now, are
manifesting an inclination to stir
things up They do not seem to be
content to permit day to pass with
out lambasting somebody or some
thing. Being safely entrenched be-
hind the federal constitution they feel
privileged TO say just what they think.
They are not like the West Indian
islander who furnished the subject
OF a little story that was going the
rounds a few weeks ago. These Is
landers have a great deal OF trouble,
it is said. because OF their methods
OF administering justice. Every time
foreigner gets in trouble and is sent
to jail, some offended nation hastens
a gunboat to the scene and forces the
release OF the prisoner. This thing
has been going on for so long that
the natives have become wary and, in
consequence, lenient with non-native
offenders. Once in while. however,
they have opportunity to square ac-
counts. Such an opportunity came
recently to Judge In Haytl One
day an offender was brought before

Judge at once inquired the nationality

the interpreter. "Hm-hm." repeated
the Judge. 'And has Switzerland a

Judge, strengthening up. we will go no

And your thoughts rise up

And see. no matter which way You

The grinning features of R. E.

When your dark-brown mouth tastes

When you swear, for drink you'd cut

And you find your pockets are shy

Then you're SOLDERING up. my boy.
This may not be good poetry. but
