Liverpool Sold for So ESQ.

Liverpool, which has decided to

city Of London. Centuries ago the
city corporation advanced to the
crown the sum of S1,S5O,O00 and in
discharge of the debt the fee simple
OF some three hundred manors and
estates was conveyed to the corpora
ton. Among them was the lordship Of
Liverpool, with all customs, anchor
age and tolls of the waters OF the
Mersey," and "all the immortal,
seignorial and regal rights" of the
town and lordship of Liverpool. But
the city fathers of those days did not
know good investment when they
had 1t, and this lordship and rights,
from which an annual income OF many
millions Is now derived, were sold to
Lord Marybrough for the sum of
$2,250-London Chronicle.

Keeping on the Go.

1t is as much part of our whole
duty to ourselves to rest sometimes as
1t is to work. The law Of rest is as
imperative as the law Of labor. II
any kind Of machine is run all the
time it soon wears out, and this Is
true of the human machine as Of any
other. The women who accomplish
most in the world are the ones who
have the wisdom to rest, IL 1t is only
five or ten minutes at time; who
relax and "let CO." We tell ourselves
that we have no time to rest, that
we must keep going, for we have so
much to do and the end of toll is
never in sight. But IL we were to
pause and draw breath even in the
thickest press and stress Of the day
we would work faster and better for II

feel better.-Ladies' Home Journal.

Fox Climbed to Roof Of Barn.

recent meet, climbed two-story
barn at farm at the foot Of Skid
daw, taking refuge on the roof. From
this coign OF vantage, and in full view
of the field, numbering some hundreds,
he watched intently the efforts made
to dislodge him. A terrier was put
on the roof, but the fox played hide

down the face of the wall in squirrel
fashion, and, alighting, fell to the

In one place it is $50 feet wide.
and at another it overflows half of

the lower bridge, known as the Lewis
bridge, the creek has cut new
channel which saved the structure,
but makes the road impossible. This
was temporary structure put in
after the old bridge was taken out
when the Big Creek reservoir broke.
Referring to The Sentinels state
ment that the bridges on Big Creek
and Plateau creek were improperly
constructed, Mr.. Dwyer stated that
all the bridges on Plateau creek
which he had personally supervised
were still intact. He says that there
are two bridges on Big Greek still
standing and that the citizens pulled
out three others to save the material
as they are considered unsafe.
Commissioner Bessire this after
noon said that he would not vouch
for the safety of the Fruita bridge
if the river rose much higher.
