To Tap the uneompahere.

Montrose.-One of the particular
reasons for the construction of the
Montrose-Delta interurban railroad Is
to tap the rich territory of the Un-
compahgre valley, and furnish trans
portation for the practically unlimited
fruit products. The greater part or
the necessary capital for the construc-
ton of the road has already been ar
ranged for, and the only obstacle to
the actual construction work is the
completion of the preliminary surveys
and the purchase of the right of way.
AS the line will also develop terri
tories now comparatively undeveloped
it is believed the matter of securing
the right of way will be easy.

Bitten by a Rather.

Greeley.-Rare presence of mind and
prompt action on the part of John
Elliot. formerly editor of the Platte
vile News, Evans Courier and other
papers in northern Colorado, and
brother of former Sheriff Jack Elliot
saved his life when he was bitten on
the hand by a big rattle-snake at his
home northeast of Fort Lupton.
Realizing the danger Elliot stuck
the blade of his penknife into the
wound for an inch, sucked the virus
out and bound the wrist tightly with
a handkerchief to stop circulation. He
drove fifteen miles to Fort Lupton for
a physician.

EXCITING TIME WITH BEES
Little Honey eatherers Capture Gro
Gerry Store, Driving Proprietor
and Customer out.

Troy, N. Y.-E. ]. B chard, a gro
Ger Of Cohoes, had ar exciting time
with a swarm Of bees in his store.
Mr.. Bouchard had on hand 100 pounds
Of honey and was attracted to the
rear of his place by the continual
buzzing. Several customers were In
the store, and the grocer excused him
self until he investigated.
He was greatly surprised to see the
great swarm fitting about his honey
stock, and for a few minutes watched
them come in and go out through q
small hole in the rear window.
When Bouchard endeavored to drive
the bees away they retaliated, and
succeeded not only in driving back the
grocer, but in clearing the customers
out as well. The grocer was Obliged
to resort to q smoking process to
drive out his unwelcome visitors. and
after they had gone he found that all
but one or two of his boxes Of honey
remained untouched.
The bees had evidently been work
ing some time and we're buzzing their
approval at the completion Of the job
when the grocer's attention was at

cow MOOSE is QUITE TAME
Wanders Far From Usual hauntS Of
BIG Game In cobbosseeeonteo
Lake Region Of Maine.

Kennebec, Me.-A lone cow moose
far away from the usual haunts Of the
Zig game animals, has for some time
freQuented the Cobbosseecontee lake
region Of Maine. Deer are occasional
" seen in that part of the state, which
is In Kennebec county. about half a
dozen miles west from Hallowell,
Gardiner and Augusta. Cow moose
are perpetually protected, and not be-
ing legal game they have increased in
recent years far in excess Of the bulls.
When not molested they become very
tame and will walk into a farm yard
Just to mingle with the cows or join
them in the pastures, where the moose
seeks out any delectable browse that
trees or shrubs may happen to offer.

Meantime George Burrell, the room
clerk. and Adam Lauder. the Scotch
laird who presides over the informa-

uuirers that Mr.. Williams has left the
hotel; that they know nothing about
the 1000 five acre farms In Texas

he was changed to a large room and

about o'clock on the afternoon
of the day before the story appeared
and has not since been seen. When he
left he gave the address Of a little
town IN the extreme north Of Texas
near the Oklahoma line.
In an interview with Mr.. Williams
which appeared last Saturday, he was
described as the representative Of an
alliance Of commercial and Industrial

said he wanted to find 1000 young
