between these points was made by a
woll-kno~n cight-cy Under car In
hour 81 minutes, the distance being
AZ miles. The lhst-named record was
the subject of 50 much discussion and
considered so wonderful by Colorado
people that milford who was resting
up after his drive In the Pixies Peak
hill climb, conceived n notion to see
what "a stock super-siX could do. The
answer was tho shattering Of the
cights record by exactly 16 minutes
26 seconds. The road traVcrsed is
mountainous. a succession of trcach-
erous ruts, mud puddles and loose and
sponEy gravel. Despite these COndi-
uons MulfOrd drove for short pc
riod at the rate OF ninety miles an
hour. slowing down TO % miles going
through towns.
Following his record drive of IS
minutes "a seconds to the summit of
Pixies Peak in n Hudson Supcr-siX,
two and Il half minutes faster time
than that made by the fastest car in

EXCITEMENT IN GRENADA.

1t seems the Pressgrove Co. have
closed their doors, and claim as their
reason, that the boil weevil had quit
the country, and after holding a
council of war, decided to concen-
trate their forces on the Pressgrove
Co. Pressgrove closed on Wednes-
day, and from what can be learned
they are fortifying on the inside.
One messenger in touch with the
Pressgrove forces said they had sent
out notices all over the country an
nouncing that they would open up
their doors on Saturday morning at
$3.50 o'clock. Some one reported
yesterday that the largest boil weevil
ever known was actually perched on
one of their windows. While this
goes to press, hnudreds of people are
being attracted by the advent of the
monster weevil. The result of this
attack on the Pressgrove stock by this
monster enemy, will be watched.
All kinds of speculations are current
as to the final outcome. It's report
ed Rice Pressgrove's hair has turned
nearly red, under the great mental
agony, incident to the sad catastro-
phe. One of his neighbors says he
openly avows he must have been born
on the wrong time of the moon.
