We Killed A Beer

On Friday last when William
Manley, B. ]. Matteson, Eric Johnson,
and Dan Switzerland &C. F. & /.
officials" were nearing Floresta
camp on their motor track car, they
were much surprised on seeing three
black bears. feeding on currants and
berries that are plentiful on the
steep sides of the ravine near the
track.
The first reports that reached here
were to the effect that Bert Matteson
after a hot chase grabbed one of
them by the tail and held it, while
his companions beat it to death with
clubs, but on being interviewed by
your correspondent, Mr.. Matteson
disclaimed exhibiting any such hero
ism.
The facts as near us we can ascer-
tain, are that after a hasty consult
tation, war was unanimously declar-
ed, but as there was not gun
among the bunch, the first decision
"that some should stay and guard the
bears, while others went for muni-
tions," had to be changed, as there
were no volunteers to guard the
bears. Pursuing the next best course
the full quartet double-quicked to
the mine a half mile distant, and
provided themselves with all the
shooting irons that could be procured
in a very limited space of time.
The bears, however, with their ma
tural instinct for sensing danger, had
commenced retreat, and when the
fellows returned from the mine,
there was only one in sight. Disre-
garding any ambush into which they
might be led they attacked in force
from three sides, and after fusilade
lasting fifteen minutes, the enemy
was silenced.
When the smoke of the battle had
sufficiently cleared, it was found that
one-third of the bears had been slain
the other two having made good
their escape. We are not going to
betray any condolences, as to who
actually killed the bear, but when
Mr.. Matteson left Saturday, he was
in possession of a nice bear-skin, as
trophy of the experience of himself
and friends, while on his last visit
at Crested Butte.

he received this appointment. He is
now living in Salt Lake, the proprie-
tor of the Cullen Hotel.
When the proving up ON the ranches
commenced it became necessary to
make another land district, which
was known as the Montrose land dis
trict, and in later years when the
business dropped off it was aban-
doned or given back to the Gunnison
district. The receiver of the Mont
rose land Office was John E. Pelton,
a millionaire, now living in Pasadena,
California He made his fortune out
of the National mine in northern Ne
vada. about fifteen years ago.
In the early days the localities
were designated as "basins." We had
Elk Basin, Redwell Basin, Peeler Ba-
sim O-B-Joyful Basin, Ruley Basin
and so on. Loking over the active
period Of two or three years, of 80,
'S1, and 'S2, one can realize now how
we were handicapped by long winters
and deep SHOWS, yet the heaviest ore
shipments out of Irwin were usually
made in the winter. 1t generally took
the most of the summer to get ready
to put in provisions and supplies,
yet, once stocked up, it was just As
convenient to mine underground in
winter as any time. 1t would be no
trouble to keep the road open to
haul all winter provided enough
teams were employed. One or two
teams might have trouble, but a
dozen teams, which could easily be
employed if enough work was going
on, would keep communication open
with the Crested Butte depot. No
more healthy country can be found
anywhere. The two or three winters
1 lived there never had better
health or apparently a better time,
as guess we did not know any better.
There was a good crowd and anyone
under the age of thirty or forty en-
joys that climate. Deep snow does
no mean extremely cold weather, but
it means you must learn to use snow
shoes or else stay in the house.
Yours truly,
]. E. PHILLIPS.

Old Stories

John Collett, the veteran Denver
printer claims that the oldest joke
is the one about the five-year-old boy
who was playing on the street and
who came into the house and told his
mother that the garbage man was a
good man. "How do you know he is
a good mani" asked his mother.
"Cause I know" replied the boy. "He
stopped and got our garbage and he
climbed on the seat of his wagon and
said: Get ap! And his mules wouldn't
start. And he said: Get ap! again
And his mules wouldn't start. And he
said: Get ap! again. And his mules
wouldn't start. And he didn't get mad
at them at ALL mother. He just got
down off his seat and went up close
to his mules and he told them all
about God and Jesus"

contests under the direction Of local
authorities are legal. The Leglsla-
ture has failed to change the law.
The Governor scorns the resolution
passed by one Of the branches Of the

the State capital. However, says
Governor Cox:
'Tf the law 10 changed, giving me
the right Of Interference, It will be
exercised, but shall not meet hy-
pocrisy with usurpation of power"
SO the Governor would stop the
fight II he had the power. But he
hasn't It, or at least will not admit
that he has. Therefore the irresisti-

eral FnENcH tried to impress on the
British Master General Of Ordnance
''how terribly deficient We were In
heavy artillery" and urged the manu-
facture Of that class Of ordnance as
well as ammunition. But IL was not
until LLOYD GEoRaE's advent as Min
lister Of Munitions, in June, 1915,
FRENCH states, that any real work
was done in the matter.
This military historian tells Of his
eighteen Founders firing IAN average
Of fourteen rounds a day, while the
receipts we're barely seven," and "the
sixty FOUNDER guns fred over forty
rounds day, against supply Of
eight or nine rounds at most" When
he outlined a programme Of his needs
as flfty shells a day, Of two high ex-
plosive types, "the War Office then
declined to work up to more than
twenty rounds a day." He says the
battle Of Neuve Chapelle had to be
broken of, after three. days fighting
because we were brought to stand.
still through want of ammunition
In May, 1915, "the British army had
only seventy-one guns altogether above
Eve inch calibre. against 1.416 below
IL, and no adequate steps whatever
had yet been taken to bring the pro
portion more nearly to the require
ments Of modern warfare" Not least
among the curiosities Of this tale OF
governmental obtuseness as to wars
needs is Lord FRENcH's story Of how
he was helped materially in the field in
the improvisation Of modern weapons
by two Americans, GEORGE Moore and
Colonel I. N. LEWIS, inventor of the
Lewis gun.
The United States can take a lesson
from this narrative If 1t will. 1t was
not until we had been at war fol
nine months that We turned out any
light artillery. Up to the end Of hos
tilities, when we had been at war fol-
twenty months, we had produced only
1899 light guns to 8,998 built by the
British In the frst twenty months
after they declared war against Ger
many. Curiously enough we excelled
in making heavy guns, for while we
had made only twenty-six heavy guns
by the end Of the eleventh month OF
hostilities, we had turned out 1907
by the end Of the twentieth month
against England's 449 at the end OF
her first twenty months Of war. But
twenty months would be an overlonl
time to wait for light and heavy, guns
