Fighting for Colorado Miners.

is fighting the proposed reduction of
tariff on Colorado ores and asks that
cities send representatives TO the
finance committees hearing opening
February 18th, when the bill will be
considered. Tungsten, produced large
ly in Boulder county, is scheduled for
the free list, which would force COM
Petition with cheap Asiatic labor and
probably destroy the home industry.
Zinc ores are also placed on the free
list by this bill, abolishing the pres
ent duty of 4 cent to cent a pound.
This would seriously injure state in
dustries. A cut of rs per cent. is pro-
POSED on lead ores and lead bullion.

lieves that the steel schedule revis.
ion of the House bill would seriously
handicap Colorado mills.

Niagara Falls, N. Y.-The great ice
bridge that has choked the river chan
mel between the cataract and the up
per steel arch bridge, below the falls
for the last ) weeks, broke from it's
snoring and went down the river, TAX
ing with it to their death a man and
woman said to be Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
ridge Stanton of Toronto, Canada,
and Burrell Heacock. seventeen, of
Cleveland. Ohio. Four other persons
were on the ice at the time, but man
aged to get ashore in safety.
The bridge was considered safe. For
weeks the great fields of ice had been
coming down the river. piling up
against the barrier until 1t was from
sixty to eighty feet thick, and under
the influence of zero weather the great
mass had become firmly anchored to
the shore. The jam was about 1000
feet vide. and in some places quar-
ter of mile in breadth.
For two weeks it had offered safe
passage to the hardy, and an immense
crowd of excursionists case to view
the winter wonder of the river. Had
the accident happened an hour later
hundreds would have lost their lives,
for the crowd was moving into Pros
pect park in the elevators that run
down the cliff for the purpose of ven
turing out upon the ice.
Somewhere deep in the great whirl-
pool sleeps the man. partially identi-
fled as Mr.. Stanton, who twice put
aside chances of rescue in order to re-
main with his terror-stricken wife,
and who, in the shadow of death-just
at the break in the rapids-spurned
assistance for himself and attempted
10 bind about the woman's body
rope dangling from the lower steel
arch bridge.
The lad, Burrel Heacock. was cast
in the same mold. Had he not turned
back On the ice to give assistance to
the man, he might have made the
shore.

he played out the string after having
his nose broken by a pitched ball
If you recall, we were battling hard
for the pennant in the American
league. The Sox had come from be-
hind, being way down at the end Of
the list up to near the middle of the
season. and they fought their way
straight up to the top. Every one
was worn out and almost exhausted
from the hard work, and they were
fighting us every step of the way al
most to the last day of the season.
Our pitchers were overworked, and 1t
looked as if one beating would ruin
the whole seasons work and put us
out Of it. We were playing one of
the eastern clubs-I have forgotten
which-and in the eighth inning were
leading by one run and fighting every
step of the way to hold that lead.
The other team was hitting hard, and
it took a lot of fielding to prevent

On bases and one out it looked all
off.
The circus seats had been erected
IN right field, making the playing field
a little short, and the batter drove q
hard line ball straight at those seats.
If the ball went through the seats
Hahn would have to run clear around
them to get it-and three runs would
score. Hahn saw the situation and
sprinted out with a desperate effort
to catch that ball. He never Stacked
his pace or tried to save himself. He
saw the ball going over his head, and
although he was within few feet Of
the temporary seats, he took flying
leap and caught the ball. As 1t struck
his hands he went crashing into the
seats, hitting the fourth row from the
bottom. The shock drove his body
almost between the rows. He was.
doubled up, and half of us thinking
he had been killed or seriously hurt,
started out just as he pulled his body
out Of the hole between the boards,
got up and threw. The throw was
made from the seats, and although
the runners took an extra base on
the catch, he got the ball to the in
field in time to prevent the runner
scoring from second. Hahn was hurt,
but refused to quit the game, and the
next ball was an easy fly, and he
limped under and caught, stopping the
rally and saving the game for us.

SCARS THAT STAY.
They Come From Cuts That Go Down
to the True Skin.

They Como From Cuts That Go Down
to the True Skin.
There are people who tell you that
everything in the body is changed ev-
cry seven years and that there is no
part of it which was there seven years
ago. This does not mean that we
slough the whole thing off at once, as
a snake does its skin or a deer its ant
lers. but simply that the innumera BILE
and tiny atoms which are used up by
the daily wear and tear are replaced
by fresh atoms supplied by our food
and drink. which keeps the body going.
just as coal and water keep the steam
engine at work.
But these changes are so minute and
gradual that the form of the body re-
mains the same, although such things
as scars take long time to disappear,
and sometimes they remain for life. al
though they always lose a great deal of
their prominence.
You have noticed that if you cut your
finger slightly it will soon heal up and
the scar will soon disappear. just as the
marks of a superficial burn will grad
ually go away, but If the cut is deep
the scar remains. This is because it
went down to what is called the true
skin. Any cuts or burns on the outer
skin are gradually pushed up and worn
or washed off, just as the hair on the
back of your head wears off without
your cutting it and grows again, but
anything that goes down to the true
skin, like tattoo marks, always re-
mains.-New York Sun.
