Mrs. c. f.. Dudley left for Phoenix,
Ariz., this morning to spend the win
ter months. For the past eight
years, she has been frequenting win
ter resorts from Mexico City to Long
Beach, and is certain in Arizona's
capital she has found the most desir-
able town in which to remain, while
this portion of the world is wrapped
in snow. Mrs. Dudley states as a
tourist resort in winter it is rapidly
rivaling many of the old time favor
lite haunts in California. She cites,
as an illustration, the fact that one
hotel there last year took in $1,1OO a
day for number of months, the mai
or portion of the patrons being tour
lists. Still Colorado and especially
this portion, has just as many at
fractions to offer in summer as that
section has in winter. and some time
in the not far distant future it will
be as widely recognized.

Today a great newspaper story is being shown at the Lion, which is in teresting in the extreme. It is called "The Tramp Reporter"
 Glen is reporter on the Times" He is sent out on an assignment; but yields to temptation and attends a cooking main. He falls down on his story and is discharged. He has no money and turns tramp, going to a dis tant city where he obtains a situation as a reporter on the Star" Lyman Garnet is also a reporter on the Star" but his work is no longer brilliant and he falls under the ban. He turns in a story which is mediocre and he is given the usual two weeks notice and Glenn is hired to take his place on the staff.
 Lyman has a wife and daughter who are ambitious. He has not been saving and has no means of support other than his weekly wage. He returns home from the office the day of his discharge and finds Lucy all expectancy as she is going away to college. She shows him a few simple gowns and he groans in despair as he knows she must give up her cherished dreams. He cannot tell his family that he has been dis charged on this occasion.
 In the office Glen is kind to him and the old man unbosoms himself and Glenn is much affected. Garnett again goes home and tells his wife their mis- fortune and she is well nigh distracted
 Glenn makes good and in a few weeks becomes the star reporter. There is mysterious murder and the entire staff is put on the story. Reporters come in with accounts. but the city editor is violent for the reason that other papers have had the same stories and he demands a solving of the rnys- tery Glenn is fortunate enough to be in a locality where the murderer is pursued by policeman and shot The thug, dying, cohfesses and Glenn has a scoop, taking notes of the confession
