OLD PIONEER
ANSWERS CALL

Yesterday afternoon at the home
of his daughter at 1O2 Chipeta ave-
nue., occurred the death of Mr. NJ.
Sylvester Hildreth, one of the pio-
neers of the West and of the state
of Colorado. history is connected
with the passing from this life of the
well preserved old man of 6S years,
which is of more than unusual inter
est. A man who had travelled eN-
tensively. he was among the hardy
emigrants who endured the untold
hardships of the life of a prospector
and crossed the range in the year AZ
with the gold seekers in the mad rush
for wealth at the time of the great
gold craze in California. Meeting
with minor successes. after spending
ten years of his life fighting Indians,
tramping over mountains, digging
for gold and living the life of the
hardy prospector, he at last settled
down to the life of the more mod
crate and more civilized citizen of
this state. having grown up with it
through its many stages on its on
ward march toward civilization. Even
at the time OF his death there yet re-
mained the scars he received in the
many skirmishes with the redskin,
the tales of which he was ever fond
of recounting.
The ravages of age, weather and
adversely, dwelt lightly with the APP
pearance of the old gentleman and he
would have been taken more for
man of 80 years of age than 6S.
A short time ago he suffered
severe stroke of paralysis and from
this he never recovered, his death
occurring in this city yesterday after
noon.
He leaves three daughters and two
sons as follows: Mrs. Latham of
Chipeta avenue, Mrs. w. j. Hammond
of Pear Park, and Miss Leahy Hill
dreth of this city, constitute the i'm
mediate family of the deceased.

the remains but arrangements for the
funeral will not be perfected until the

RAIDED 90 Stills
in One MONTH
Increase in Illicit DistilIns Probably
Due to the Effect of the Prohibition
Law. Increase in Prices Has Some
Effect.

ATLANTA, August 12.-Notwith-
standing the activity of the revenue
officers and the many prosecutions
in the Federal courts, moonshining
continues on the increase. The month
ly report for July has just been COM
pleted by Revenue Agent James II.
Surber, with headquarters in Atlanta
and it shows an increase of 20 raided
moonshine stills over the record for
July last year.
During the month just past the men
in Mr., Surbers jurisdiction raided and
destroyed 65 stills Of this number 81
were in Georgia and 2S in Alabama,
with two in Florida.
The high prices being received by
moonshiners for their product is given
as the cause of the INCREASE in the
illicit business. Where they formerly
received a dollar a gallon for whisky
they are now getting that much a
quart.
