South park, over the Midland railway, excursions are run every summer day for gathering wild flowers.
 Down the steep slopes of the pass dashes in turbulent foam the Fontaine qui Bouille, past the pretty summer resorts dotted along it's course. Down this pass came the Utes in the winter to fight the Cheyennes on the plains, and up the pass in summer came the Cheyennes to return the compliment and fight the Utes.
 As the stars and wreaths of electric lights at Manitou are thrown into unearthly brilliancy by their back ground of somber mountains, so the story of the dark and bloody days of Indian warfare only aceentuates the contrast between them and the gayety of the spa of the three red canyons, the trey of hearts, pulsating with life, musical with orchestral or band con. certs and the song of the rushing Fontaine
 Not far from Manitou, directly to the east, lies Colorado Springs; and between them is Colorado City, the pay roll town" of central Colorado. Cripple Creek gold finds it's way down hill to this point, where 10,O00,000 tons of ore are annually treated.
 A huge couchant lion, to the south of Colorado Springs, looms the bulk of Cheyenne mountain.
 The mountain is scanned by two canyons, North and South Cheyenne The latter cleaves the mountain to it's base with a narrow ravine, cut down 1000 feet in the solid red rock by the mighty hand of centuries. The canyon is thickly wooded and termi- mates in an amphitheater of rocks, down which leaps Cheyenne Creek in succession of seven falls from a height of 700 feet. A quarter of mile upstream one comes to Midnight Falls, and short distance farther Juniata Falls are to be seen.

The demands of the tourist and of those women who keep pace with the midwinter social affairs save the mil liners workrooms from utter deser- tion at this time. Soon they will be filled with workers preparing for spring, when everyone wants new headwear.

RARE ADDITION TO MUSEUM
Specimens of Congo Game, Insects and Snakes Collected by Member
 of the Staff.

The bongo and okapi are animals only in museums, after they are stuffed. They are extremely rare both inside and outside of museums and the American Museum of Natural History is shortly to be enriched by mounted specimens of both, along with some 6O,00O African insects, 1,5OO snakes and 10000 catalogued subjects of all kinds. The collection is the result of six years work in the Bel gian Congo by Herbert Lang of the museum staff. Among the 10000 spec imens are $500 examples of imple- ments, pottery and textiles related to savage arts and crafts, including the art of living The number of speci- mems is so large that one is moved to wonder what the natives had left to sell to the next explorer after MT. Lang had finished his collection. The timid, and only two or three white men have ever seen it. Mr. Lang cap tured baby okapi, which had been deserted by it's mother on the ap- proach of the hunters. The baby got along well until the supply of milk gave out, and then it's pelt was added to the collection. Beside the bongo and okapi skins the collection includes skins of the giant eland, white mi noceros, lions, elephants, buffalos and many rare birds.-Christian Herald.

The genial glow of reading lamps makes the living-room table these cool nights the most cheerful and rest full place in the house. On this occa- sion the runner for the table should have large amount of consideration. While cushions are important. they are in the shadow and any shabbiness or defects in them will be softened- Devote then your best energies to hav- ing supply of table runners that will do you and your home credit.

Wool chinchilla in dark colors is an old favorite for winter coats, and is worn by men, women and children. It remained for the smart sport coat to bring out the unequaled fitness of white chinchilla for garments in which style is of as much importance as warmth, and both are essential to success.
 White ehinchilla appears with ever increasing frequency in midwinter coats for little girls, and smart sport coats for women. The latter are cut in simple lines and long, like the coat pictured, or shaped like sweater coats. Many novel touches in little details of finishing make them interesting, and they are carefully and beautifully finished
 These points are demonstrated by the coat illustrated here very clearly. It has big convertible collar which may be buttoned up about the ears, and the revers are faced with moire plush in black. Very accurate parallel rows of machine stitching ornament the coat at the bottom and adorn the collar, cuffs and pocket flaps. The buttons are white composition barred witH black, except the two that fasten the metal belt across the front, which is finished with tabs of black at each side. These buttons are black with white rims.

Little Mack's Faithful Attache of Sheriff's Office for Many
 Years

Little Mack, a factor in bringing many d man to justice in this county, is seriously ill. At the time of going to press the sheriffs office entertained little hope for his recovery.
 It was typical of the Fiery steed that his last trip was in behalf of the state Deputy Sheriff George Sears notified the sheriff yesterday that the horse had given out shortly after he had secured his prisoner, Johnny Welch just this side of Payson. Welch is alleged to have stolen saddle from John Kleinman's barn-fn Mesa and his capture may result in the loss to the county of one of it's most picturesque and trustworthy attaches for such he may be called.
 Jeff Adams brought Little Mack to tho sheriff's office when he first be- came attached to the department as q deputy under Sheriff Carl Hayden. Since that time the animal has always figured in the hunt for criminals in this county. A parade without the big sheriff on his big horse has been unknown in this city. Little Mack is loved by every member of the sheriff $ office and every one spoke of him yes terday in hushed and anxious tones.
