The original Eagle Tail tunnel had
been driven into the side Of a steep

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS TO DENVER
Daylight Run Made by Autos in Four
teen Hours.

Denver-The practicability of a
daylight run by automobile from
Steamboat Springs to Denver has been
demonstrated. A party of residents
from Steamboat Springs, Craig, Hay
den and other points in northwestern
Colorado accomplished the trip in
fourteen hours. Leaving Steamboat
Springs at a. m, the first Of the
party arrived In Denver at 8 D. m.
the same day.
The route followed the new forest
service road over Rabbit Ear pass for
a distance OF twelve miles, then over
the old road along Park range, strik-
ing the Midland Trail at Kremmling.
The trip Is said to have been made
primarily for the purpose Of trying
out the new link in the Rabbit Ear
read across the continental divide
within the Routt national forest This
portion Of the road was constructed
by the forest service In cooperation
with the state and Routt county.
According to forestry officials OF
Denver. the road engineer Of the for

ground making final survey Of the
remaining portion of the highway
leading through the forest, which IL

to give up their mining claim and return
to the United States. In the border town
OF Gadsden Bud meets Henry Kruger. a
wealthy miner. who makes him a propo-
sition to return to Mexico to acquire title
TO very rich mine which Kruger had
blown up when he found he had been
cheated out of the title by one Arason.
The Mexican subsequently spent large
sum in an unsuccessful attempt to relo-
cate the vein and then allowed the land to
revert for taxes. Hooked and De Lancey
arrive at Fortuna near where tho mine,
known as the Eagle Tail, is located. They
engage the services of Cruz Mendez. who
has been friendly to Kruger. to acquire
the title for them, and get a permit to do
preliminary work. Aragon. protests and
accuses them OF jumping his claim. Bud
discovers that matrimonial entanglements

been bugle-calls and excitement, and
then the first fugitive came in from
down below.
He was an old Mexican, with trem
bling beard and staring eyes, and he
told tale OF outrage that made their
blood run cold. The red-flaggers had
come to his house at night: they had
killed his wife and son. left him upon
the ground for dead, and carried on

crazed old man who told for truth that
which he feared would happen.
Notwithstanding the denouement
his story stirred the Mexican popula.
tion to the depths. and when Bud and
Phil tried to hire men to push the
work on the mine, they realized that
their troubles had begun. Not only
was It impossible to engage laborers
at any price, but on the following day
Cruz Mendez, with his wife and chill
dren and all his earthly possessions
on his burros. came hurrying in from
the camp and told them he could serve
them no more.
1T is my woman!" he explained; /;
my Maria! All, if those revoltosos
should see Maria they would steal her
before my eyes!"
So he was given his pay and the
fifty dollars he had earned and, after
the customary "Muchas gracias," and
with the faithful Maria by his side, he
went hurrying off to the store.
And now in crowded vehicles, with
armed men riding in front and behind,
the refugees from Moctezuma and the
hot country began to pour into town,
adding by their very haste to the panic
