THE LAST STAND.

NOON after 5 O'clock a man IN the
topmost window of the tower
~ called down that the forces in
the hills were moving in com
pact body toward the ridges below the
southern gates.
One hundred picked men were to be
left inside the castle gates with Vos
Engo, prepared to meet any flank move
ment that might be attempted. Three
hundred mounted men were selected to
make the dash down Castle avenue
straight into the camp Of the sharp
shooters. 1t was the purpose of the
house guards to wage fierce and noisy
conflict off the avenue and then retire

Ihey came tumbling out of barns and
sneds, cIutching their rifles in nerveless
hands, aghast in the face OF absolute
obstruction. The enemy, craven at the
outset, threw down their guns and tried

streets at the end Of the common. Fir

Trees as Natural Compass

not many guides themselves can do
that with absolute success, though 1t
seems a very simple thing to me-"
DO you mean that you can hold
a perfectly straight course through
thick woods and across broken coun-
try without a compass or sunlight to
guide?"
"As straight course as could be fol-
lowed in such a country
"What is your guide, the moss or
growth on the shaded side of tree
trunks?"
mo. That's not to be depended on.
Sometimes the dampness collects on
the north side of tree, sometimes on
the east side, sometimes on another
slant. You can't depend on 1t.
''But there is one thing which in any
general stretch of country is infalll-
BILE. That is the inclination of the
trees Every section has its prevailing
wind. If you know what is the pre-
vailng wind of the section where you
are going it seems to me that anybody
with half an eye ought to be able to
hold a straight course
.Of course you won't find the trees in
thick woods bending at a decided angle
as you will find those on exposed
ground But if you observe carefully
you will detect enough variation from
a straight perpendicular to keep you
going true That's the secret of my
sense of direction. and it's secret
every man in the woods can share"

A FAMOUS Canadian guide of whom

hunter not long ago how he did it.

every time and in the straightest line
possible?"
''That's what they say admitted the
old guide, "and" he added half apol-
ogetically, 81 should be ashamed of
myself If it wasn't pretty close to the
TRUTH"
How do you do it?''
''Well, sometimes l know pretty we'll

You know that is an entirely different
proposition from merely getting out OF
a forest or a section of country. The
man who doesn't know where he or
anything else is can always follow the
streams and get somewhere some time
if he holds out long enough.
But that is different matter from
talking an objective point, even imag-
mary, and then going straight through
the wilderness to that point Perhaps

This office is in receipt OF most
cheering letter from that wide awake
pushing gentleman, Frank E. Wire
secretary treasurer of the Gilpin-Im-
perial Mining company, which he is
financing and managing in the spirit
that betokens success. The efforts of
himself and associates will be con-
centrated in mining in Clear Creek
and Gilpin counties. The company is
so far financed that it will not be
long before the stock will be taken
off the market. 1t has been listed
with the Denver Consolidated Stock
Exchange for short period, but it
is not the intention of the company
to leave the treasury stock thus list
ed for lengthy time, as within. the
next thirty days 1t is expected all
will be placed that it is desirable to
part with. The company has a suffi-
cient amount Of money and gilt edge
notes on hand to place 1t on easy

erty near the Saratoga and that is

The supreme court of the state
Andrew Sandberg, former sheriff of
Clear Creek county which means that
he will have to pay to Mrs. Mamie
Borstadt of that county $1,000. Sand
berg had an execution out Of the
county court on judgment against
Mrs. Mamie Borstadt, says the
Georgetown Courier. When he came
to levy on her goods she claimed ex-
emption under the statute provided
for the head Of the house. Sandberg
went ahead and cleaned out the house
taking articles Of furniture and sew
ing machine. Mrs. Borstadt supported
her family by keeping boarders and
sewing. She brought suit in the dis
trict court and was awarded damages
in a sum three times the value OF the
goods seized. In affirming the judg-
ment Of the court below Justice Cab
bert takes up all Of Sandberg's de-
tense and disposes Of them in caus-
tic language. AS to the claim Of ex-
emption Sandberg alleged that it
should not stand because Mrs. Bor-
stadt did not cite the statute under
which she made her claim. Justice
Gabbert writes she did not have to.
That the general statement claiming
exemption was sufficient to protect
her from the seizure by the sheriff
and he should have known 1t.
