beating the Indians out of fine chance

torial from the St. Louis Sporting News,
the leading baseball publication in the

the baseball! pulse speaks for itself:

Alonzo Stagg, who has been
visiting the W. G.. Arkills family
for the past few weeks, left Fri
day morning for his home in Chi
cago. He is getting in condition
for foot b al next season and
as an exercise has been exploring
all Clear Greek and Gilpin counties.
The day before he left he hiked to
Georgetown, and Green and Clear
Lakes and returned by the way of
Waldorf, making the days hike
about thirty-five miles. While here
he visited Central City and Black
Hawk several times, returning a
different overland route each time
and once returning from the Gem
miner underland. He is probably
better acquainted with this coun-
try than number of our BOYS

$5e0, ,o0e Worth Of Ore During

Leased on Favorable Terms.


This we'll known mine, which
produced over e6OO.00O more than
half which was profit, in the last
six years, rud which made several
lessees we'd on, y now open f5r
lessers ON favorable terms.
During the latter part of and
since the recent war, it has been
worked only in small way and
with poor Judgment. Since the
decrease in the cost of miningthere
is an excellent opportunity to
make greater success than that
made by the late AL Friedman
and his associates and successors,
the dgar Leasing Company.
With good management and a
little capital to start, success seems
practically certain.
A lease and bond on the Early
Bird can be had in connection with
it if wanted. Information can be
procured of Dan Barry at the

The commencement exercises at
the opera house Thursday evening
were very impressive and we'll at
tended. The sixteen members of
the class of 1921 were seated on
the stage and represented class
of the highest standing-one OF
the best that ever completed the
high school course.
The first number on the pro-
gram was selection on the piano.

An invocation by Rev. 81. r.

was heartily applauded. She re-
sponded with an equally delight

to be present in our little city.
He spoke of the experiments that
have been made to grow and de-
velop brains; the experiences he
has had with criminals, and the
methods adopted by students of
the higher institutions of learning.
The almost universal habit of the
American Of jumping from inspi-
ration to conclusion without think
ing what may be the result of the
inspiration was also referred to by
the speaker. The entire discourse
was very enjoyable, and his many
practical illustrations in everyday
life of our lack of thought were
brought out most Interestingly.

FALL RIVER ROAD
IS UNDER WATER
At Intersection of Fall River
and Clear Greek Water Has
Run Over Bridge and Covers
Road, but Is Not impossible.

The Clear creek road to George
town at the intersection of Clear
creek and Fall river has been COW
cred with water the past few days,
and the Fall river road is COM
pletely under water. Some time
ago the old bridge was abandoned
and in its place a new culvert pipe
was installed under new cement
bridge, but at this time, due to
the excessive rains. the volume of
the water was too great to be car
ried off thru the culvert, and as a
consequence has run over the
bridge into the road and every.
thing in its way.
Road Overseer Alex Seaton, of
that section, with number OF
men, has been working steadily to
keep tn. main road open for traf-
&c. All cars passing this section
are required to go thru the stream
of water, but there is no danger at
tached to it.
The Alice stage truck, on max
ing its regular trip in Thursday,
was required to remain on the other
side Of the water-covered road, and
George Aiberts, driver Of the stage,
had to walk into town.
At the time the SiftinRs- News
representative was at the scene one
of our local Fords had been re-
quired to make a trip up thru the
water with supplies. The Ford
went thru the water, even if it did
no over the wheels and gave the
machine more of the appearance
of . boat than an auto. 1t made
the trip and came thru without
injury.
As soon as the water subsidies
the county will put in second
culvert beside the other pipe, SO
that there will be iplenty of room
for the water to flow and avoid
flooding the road.
Road Overseer Seaton says that
with all the debris that the water
has brought down, none of it has
been caught in the pipe to block
the outlet. Thursday morning, he
said, he saved saw buck from at
tempting the passage thru the
pipe.
At present the Fall river road
is closed to traffic, except for fish
or ducks.

Havoc With Roads

0~ vv<sA AAA vs$oN :. - - - -
rains together have caused consi-
derable damage and inconvenince
with the traffic over our noun
tain roads. The Fall River road
at the Clear Creek intersection is
still suffering from the recent rise.
The bridge has been standing
very well thru the flowing water.
At the foot of ellison Gulch, the
bridge across Clear Greek suffered
very badly from the high water in
Clear Creek, especially ON Fridav,
when it sank on the north west
corner about eighteen inches, on
account Of the foundation Of the
bridge giving away. Men were
rushed to the sinking bridge i'm
mediately nd commenced I he
work Of replacing the foundation.
The ground around the bridge is
very soft and consists mostly of
sandy land. The road to Gibson
Gulch has not been injured.
On Thursday evening the water
in the creek came up over the ce-
ment bridge in Georgetown but
did nodamage.
Several places on the Chicago
Greek road are washed out and at
the foot Of Spring Gulch the water
is over the road.
The Ute Greek road is absolute
ly impossible to anything. The
old Walker tunnel. within 4 mile
Of Chicago Greek. directly unde,
the road has eaved. t;akiug snch
an opening that is is impossible to
to 60 over it.
All the roads and bridges east
of the city are in excellent condi-
ton.
A number of small places on
Soda Creek and Bear Greek have
been washed out but the road is
passa BILE with cars.
The Virginia Canon road has
received no damage from either
the rains or giving way of the
banks.
Friday night the water went over
the Rose street bridge between 9th
and 10th streets in Georeetow n.
rhe entire lower end of George
town was flooded. but no great
damage was done. Everytime the
water gets real high it goes over
this bridge and floods this section.
ALI the dams at and around George
town are in good condition and are
withstanding he high pressure
very we'll.
The Fall River road at the Lu-
cania tunnel is completely washed
out new and impossible to auto
mobiles. Thd only way that one
may get up Fall River is to walk
along the side of the mountain,
