gested that the men then in Jail be

as il would be violation of the law.
The meeting, however, was in no
mood to be warned. Mr.. COLON,
as city attorney, was in an en-
barrassing position, but he put the
question, declaring that he must
prosecute any offender if evidence
should be furnished him. A long
procession took IA of the leaders
to the city limits east and started
them for Kansas or Nebraska.

Hot Air from Arizona

johnson, Ariz., but any person who
is onto the ropes can get the
breezes from the Colorado town
on these hot summer days. Some
of the air is nice and cool and
some of it is very hot.
When you meet Bob Morrison
his first remark is "Some hotter
than Idaho Springs" and then
"When l was running the motor
in the Newbouse tunnel and
away he goes, pulls several hun
dred thousand cars from the tun
mel, and about the time the motor
is getting hot and you expect to
see it break out into flames, he
starts running hoist, and to hear
him tell it, the way he pulled
muck from those shafts, the guides
had to be well creased to keep
them from catching fire. The
next day he will tell of hauling
trunks for tourists and keeping cool
by drinking a beverage with white
foam on top (name forgotten in
Arizona.)
While Bob is trying to get his
second wind Walter Smith ap
pears and takes the center of the
stage. First he attends to bath
ing the tourists, whose trunks
have been delivered, and after
the laundry is all out he takes
orders for groceries for one of
the Idaho Springs stores. There
must have been some big eaters
there, the amount of goods he sold.
No wonder we all have to Hoove-
rize now. If he has not used all
your spare time he tells how he
hauled coal and how fast he could
shovel it.
And then NJ. T. (Mike) Gilchrist
of Dumont is always on the job.
He does a little prospecting on
several properties and then settles
down to business on the McClel-
land tunnel. He puts in few
rounds of holes to get everything
warmed up and working right,
and then makes it so real yon can
hear the shots go of, and some
days when he is in real good tri IN
you can smell the powder smoke.
On looking into our blacksmith
shop one would hardly recognize
the perspiring, sooty-faced hard
working man as Emil johnson, a
native-born Idaho Springs boy,
who assisted the output of Clear
Creek very materially by sharpen
ing steel. He tells of the good
times he had at the "Troc," while
learning to be society bud and
prize waltzer.
When the horseshoe game is
over in the evening, Axel Peterson
and Pete Hawkins do some fast
work sinking shafts and driving
drifts, while Carl Morrison builds
summer resorts and ships ore from
his lease.
And one does not have to confine
himself to the men from Clear
Greek county-the women also do
their share.
Mrs. Walter Smith formerly
Miss Maud Mason) will tell you
some amusing incident or the
comic makeup of everybody who
attended several hundred dances,
including the brand of powder
used, color of dress worn, and if
the shoestrings were properly tied.
| Mrs. P. R. Morrison tells us of
going to a restaurant with hun.
dreds of others, and of the many
good things to eat, most of them
unknown in this country.
Mrs. Carl Morrison trips the
light fantastic to the music of the
dishes at the White House cafe
in the day time, and at the Troc
at night to the music of the band
her smiling face and good nature
keeping her very busy at both
places.

To hoil an egg, you first catch the egg. Never take any of the 13 eggs 1ndcr the hen. Having caught the egg, prepare kettle of water hot enough to shave with, but don't stop to shave. You continue to heat the water while peeling the egg. An egg should be peeled from left to right, al. ways as otherwise you peel against the grain. Catch the water at pre- cisely 760 degrees Fahrenheit, whic.' you can ascertain by inserting the 'ls> dex finger in the kettle. Then with hammer, nails, and tongre-and-grooNe hoards construct small chute, or slide, which you can attsch to the ceil- Ing, leaving the lower end to swing in the kettle. Yon then roll the peeled egg down the chute into the water. You may then throw away the chute. Allow the egg to boil until completely ? finished, soft, :uediUm, or adamant, to suit the taste.

Fresh Greene for the Canary.

Canaries are very fond of lettuce, celery tops and cther young and ten. der greens, as all birdlovers knew. When the birdman5 tells us we must not give these things to our pets too frequently the temptation to 30 con- trary to advice is strong, for we sym. pathize keenly. An accident showed me the way to gratify our pets without harm to them. aS experience has proven. Some months since, a little birdseed was spilled on the earth in a large tub containing rubber plant Soon these seeds spre>uted, asd we hit upon the idea of removing the bottolN erom the cage and setting it over tkt
 young sprouts. The joy the canaries found in their greens, Nnd the conse- quent discovery that the birds were really gaining in health and song con- vinced us that box of sprouting b;rd- seed was the thing to keep on hand for them.-Exchange.
