The boy had enlisted at the age of seventeen and was twice wounded during the St. Mihiel drive.

senger and freight agent of the
Denver and Salt Lake route, the Mof-

present emergency at Pueblo and un-
til through service is re-established

operate. auto stages between State
Bridge on the Moffat line and Wolcott
on the Denver & Rio Grande. This
will make it possible for those destin-
ed to Denver and points beyond to
transfer by auto between the two
roads, losing little or no time, and in
some instances making the run thru
to Denver quicker than could be done
on the Rio Grande route via Pueblo.
1t was not announced what the charge
Of the auto trip would be.
But few miles separate the two
roads and it has frequently been sug-
gested in times past that short
route to Denver could be established
by the building Of connecting link
between the two roads with q little

NEW COUNTRY EXPLORED
By MANCOS NAN

During his recent stay on the lower
San Juan river in southern Utah. st
point where the last fringe Of hu-
man habitatiou borders on the wilder
ness, Charles Hayes made an exunr-
sion into the region north Of The
Navajo mountains where tie noun
tains break away into deep canons
that open into the San Juan and Colo
Yado rivers, says the Mancos Times-
Tribune. Mr.. Hayes thinks that IL
country he was in was never Travelled
before by white man. there being not
even trails except here and there an
Gent Indian trails, and he describes it
as being the roughest. most barren
and most worthless country he ever
saw.
However evidences Of ancient habi-
tation were plentiful - Cli6 Dwell
lers' ruins were to be found in al
most all the cAnons, many Of them the
best preserved he had ever seen. He
IL convinced that he saw ruins that no
white man has ever looked upon be-
fore, the dust Of the centuries has new
er been disturbed and whatever they
contained that is Of value to science,
learning or life, 10 there yet.
There is almost no water to be
found in that region, which adds to
the difficulties in exploring it
Mr.. Hayes invaded the country and
braved its perils in search Of uranium
and vadadium ore deposits.
