EFFORTS bEntf ;,MAbE
T0'ESrABLiSH PARK

If the efforts now being vigorously
put forth by number Of prominent.
residents Of Pueblo and Custer ooun,
ties bear fruit. there will be estab-.
lished by the government . national.
park at place near the Pusblo-Oua
ter county line. These men have boon
working quietly, bu. none the. less
diligently ON = scheme which has
reached suoh stage, Of completeness
that it will soon be put Into the
hands Of Colorado's three congress-,
men to be presented to congress.
One of the gentlemen. who ID push- :,
irg the proposition looking to the es-
tablishment Of the national park in
Colorado. was in Pueblo Saturday
and outlined the plans which It 10
hoped will meet the approval Of a
national administration which has,
thus far. been committed to the prop.
osit on Of forest reserves and national
parks.
/ 1t is the plan Of those at the head
of the movement TO secure from oop.
gress an appropriation of $500, 600
which will b. used in establishing
and maintaining for . period Of years
park whioh shall occupy about
three townships living on the county
line.
The site is famous as ono u of the
most beautiful sections Of the entire
state. In the tract. which it is pro-
posed to make into park. are noun,
tains. which for grandeur are. SUR
passed by few mountains In the, en-
tire state. There are beautiful val
leys. sparkling streams and waterfalls.
and everything that could be desired
in a mountain park. Those who have
seen the site cannot find words to de-.
scribe its beauty. and all are united
in the hope that the administration
which has shown such an unusual in
terest in the preservation to the ma
tion for are beauty spots will report
favorsbly wher the proposed bill for
the establishment Of this national
park shall be presented.
Wild game is said to abound In the
neig ghborhood Of the proposed site.
and annually there are thousands Of
visitors to this locality.
The men. who arc urging that q
national park be established 1t this
point have hit upon novel plan for
attracting the attention Of the nation
al Jaw makers TO the spot. ID They are
taking pattern from President Roose-
velt. who recently sent to congress
AN illustrated message - where pho
toGraphs were used to impress upon
the law makers the nscessi ty Of forest
preservation The photographs were
n novelty In presidential messages.
but 1t Is not unlikely that tho pio.
tures will impress the congress In .
manner not possible with words. NO
matter how we'll written. Taking
pattern from this scheme. the gentle.
men who seek to have the national
park established, are having made =
collection Of photographs which shall
convey to congress some idea Of the
scenic grandeur of the. locality.

Vanity of Men.

In a Woman's club, a group Of
ladies cited many, many instances
of the follish vanity of males.
"Take the case of BEES" one said.
Because the queen bee rules the
hive, because she is the absolute mis-
tress Of millions of subjects, man up
to a few hundred years ago denied
her sex. He called her the king bee.
''Pliny wrote somewhere, The
king bee is the only male, all the rest
being females And Moses Rusden,
beekeeper to Charles H., stoutly de-
MED, in order to please his royal
master, that the large bee. the ruler
Of the hives, belonged to the gentler
sex.
Even Shakespeare couldn't bear
to think that the bee Of bees, the
largest and wisest and fairest, the
hives absolute lord, was fem ale.
No, all the proofs Notwithstanding,
Shakespeare called her male. Don't
you remember the lines
Creatures that by rule in nature teach,
The act Of order to a peopled kingdom.
They have king and officers of Sorts

Mark Twain as an Art Critic.

A friend once took Mark Twain to
see a new beautiful piece of sculp-
ture. 1t represented young woman
coiling up her hair, and the owners
companions stood open-mouthed in
admiration.
Well" said the host, turning to
Mark Twain for his verdict, what
do you think of it? Grand, isn't it,"
eyes, it's very pretty, "said Mark,
but it's not true to nature
why not?" inquired every one in
surprise.
"She ought to have her mouth full
of hairpins," replied the humorist
gravely.

| love thee, Carolina,
Broad thy rivers, bright and clear;
Majestic are thy mounthins;
Dense thy forests, dark and drear;
Grows the pine tree, tall and stately
Weeps the willow dropping low,
Bloom the eglantine and-jaSmine,
Mods the daisy, white as snow.
CHORUS.
Let me live in Carolina;
Til life's toll and strife are past;
Let me sleep in Carolina,
When my sun shall set at last;
Where the mocking bird is singing,
Where. my heart is fondly clinging
would sleep when life is DER
Sweetly on the old home shore.
| love thee, Carolina,
Peace and plenty there abide;
How beautiful thy harvest,
Gathered in at Autumn tide.
Fair thy fields where grows the cot
ton,
Light and feecy, soft and white;
And the golden wheat doth ripple
Like a sea Of amber Light.
| love thee, Cardinal
Land Of story and Of song;
Of patriot and hero
How their deeds to memory throng.
Great in peace and great in battle;
Heart Of fire to love or hate;
Brightest star of all tire Union
Is the glorious Old North State.
