Canada. Many Of our Colorado far

years Sol ,913 people emigrated from

Ancient Order of Hibernians, receiv-

a strong sermon on the spirit of the
day. bringing out forcibly- the idea
that the annual st. Patrick's day
celebration was above all else, a
thoroughly religious celebration and
irrespective OF nationality 1t carri-

ters of Erin have been loyal and
true In trial and suffering to the
faith Of their fathers. SO also have
they proven their worth as patrio-

when their country called them. In
conclusion he exhorted the Hi
bernians present always to live up
to the noble traditions OF their race
and thus prove themselves devoted
members of their church and loyal
patriotic citizens OF their country.

NEW MINING INDUSTRY
NEEDS WORK OF EXPERTS

The changed conditions OF Colora-
do mining make 1t more than ever
necessary that the operations of this
should be carried forward in accord
ance with the most approved meth
DDS Of modern science. Anybody
knows enough to pick up a gold mug
get lying at his feet, or to put up a
notice claiming rich silver outcrop
by right OF discovery. or to WELD a
pick and shovel according to the
primitive methods Of prospectors.
But 1t Is quite different matter to
take charge Of development of a
great gold or silver property. to lay
a plan for its operation IN such a
way as to secure the maximum out
put at the minimum Of expense. and
II is even more difficult to conduct
mining operations successfully when
these are complicated wsth other
problems of manufacturing and mar.
keting and distribution.
The mining industry in Colorado
has grown wonderfully complex. II
is no longer a matter of the output
Of one. two or three precious met
ais. but rather OF a great many min
eral substances, whose total produc-
ton far exceeds in value that of all
the metals. precious and base.
1t is a great mistake to suppose
that mining in Colorado has declin-
ed. Rather 1t has been transformed.
The successful leaders OF the min
ing industry these days are men who
hold their positions not as the result
CT some lucky chance in the discov-
cry OF bonanza ore. but rather by
their business ability. \
1t should not be hastily assumed
that the doors of opportunity are
closed because the conditions of sue
cess have been somewhat changed.
There is still opportunity for the
lucky strike. almost as great as there
ever was. The prospector. the leas-
er and the operators OF small prop
critics still serve a useful purpose in
this industry. And outside OF these
there is an endless field Of opportun-
ity for the men Of skill. intelligence
and industry. who. under the new
conditions are building the mining in
dustry Of Colorado to far greater pro-
portions than II could ever have hop
ed 70 reach under the old conditions.

Lessees were the last to work In
the Clay County, two or three years

been idle for some time. The mine
is an old producer and made a for

Smith in the early days. 1t has the
record Of having produced the rich

the county. The surface dirt in the
early part of its history run as high

THE BEAR THAT
WALKED LIKE a MAN
"a Tribute to Treachery, by
Mrs. e. zimmerman)

There is nothing in life so closely
aimed to the brute as the treacher
GUS man.
Like wild beast he will turn and
reno his best friend. One is inspir.
ed TO memory of Kipling's remark
able verse, The Bear That Walked
LIKE Man" This was a classic
ana demonstrated the attitude of Rus
sia at the time It was written.
The bear that walked like a man
left its mark upon the man who be-
friended it. A miserable beggar he
walked the earth SCARED and torn
and horrible to look upon. This was
gratitude of the bear that walked
like a man for one who would have
been his friend. Yet, all who gaz-
ed upon the terrible features of the
man, remembered the bear that
walked like man and his path was
bereft of all who would have extend
ed any further kindnesses.
So 1t is with the knocker. On a
mans soul he leaves his imprint and
thereafter he is the bear that walk
ed like man and SO deluded his
friend that he put his treacherous
claw into the soul of that man. But
the friend he betrayed and attempts
to ruin. bears not the mark upon his
face. but upon his soul, and he nev-
er, never forgets. And when a man
never forgets he always has his in
nfngs. The treacherous one who per-
haps owes what he gained to the
man he called by that most wonder
ful OF names. friend, goes his way,
foolishly imagining that he is secure,
little realizing on what a fragile a
footing he stands, the contemptuous
favor OF one who has little work
for him to do and who will turn him
adrift as an unworthy one, unfit to
be trusted because he betrayed his
friend.
Such men are the death of the
district wherein they dwell for a
time. Too many times. in the his
tory OF every place has there been
the bear that walked like a man;
who stood upright only SO long as he
might inspire one to believe that his
natfral pose, and then. like q cow
eriHr crfnEfng craven. white with
fear. yet daring to strike, his claws
concealed beneath his hairy paws, he
struck. Struck and wounded his best
friend and gloated because he
thought he had done a great thing.
Put the imprint of such treachery is
left upon the cowardly one and he
will pay for every second of his tri-
umph. For it is the history of such
contemptible cravens that they al
ways live to see their air built cas-
ties fall about their stunned ears
and always. without fail; they sup
ply the weapon with which they slay
themselves. One peculiar thing
about such poor souls is their will
ingness to shield themselves behind
anything-even a woman's skirt. and
never. never do they look a man
straight in the eyes.
But the bear that walks like a
man always comes into his own. In
his triumph he commits many follies
his tongue grows eloquent with his
greatness and never was there any
one SO willing to talk to a reporter
till the papers brand them; ''talka.
tive. dangerous, libelous and ire.
sponsible.
Thus the bear must fall to his
four feet again and through life go
branded as a very simple bear and n
longer even the bear that walks like
a man.!
