Of the old trapper.
Mortimer, who tell the story of the
mystic FL Dorado north Of the Peace
river, declare that the gold was only
available after heavy fall Of snow,
with which the old fellow apparently
washed his mineral. From an analysis
OF the circumstances generally, 1t is
thought that the place from which the
gold was taken was some old river bed
where the Pence river once flowed, but
whether the story Is correct or not re-
mains to be proved.

In England the London & North

firebox has been lined with fire brick
and SCARAB" oil burners, Of the type
in which the oil is atomized by a jet
Of steam, have been installed SO that
there are three burners in row across
the firebox. The burners are supplied
with oil by means Of pipe line
running from an oil tank, with a
capacity Of 1000 gallons. which is
installed in the tender, In the space
that used to be occupied by the coal.
Adjacent to this tank is heater,
through which the oil passes on Its
way to the burner, and In which 1t

vaIu. Of v.lIl.l.. Drop. ,,s, ,7so.

Denver.-COlorado public utilities,
telephone and telegraph companies,
railroads and private street car lines
will pay taxes on $191. 100 less than In
1920. This fnct is revealed In the an
nual assessment roll made public by
the State Tax Commission here.
The 1920 valuation fixed by the
commission totalled $227, ,454. .19O. while
the 1921 valuation Is 1927 ,282, 400. The
decrease Is occasiOned by the low
earnings of the railroads and various
public utilities.
Low earning capacity OF the Mis-
souri, Pacific resulted in decrease Of
$23O,0OO In its assessment, while ap-
proximately 100000 was taken off the
Rio Grande Southern. The valuation
Of the Denver & Rio Grande, which il
the largest in the state, was left ut
$41, ,Sss,sO0. The second largest as
sessment Is against the Colorado &
Southern, which was left UNCHANGED
at $23.9s1, ,72O No changes were made
in the Santa Fe, Burlington or Union
Pacific railroads.
Among the railroads 100000 was
Topped off the Rock Island. The reason
for this was said to be the fact that
certain property was assessed last
year upon which the railroad, was not
compelled to pay taxes.
An increase of $4,000 was made in
the assessment of the American Rail-
way Express Company and private car
lines were increased $4,000. The
Pullman Company will pay taxes on
$1,1O1,OOO, the same as In 1920.
A 100000 assessment was made in
the assessment of the Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph Company.
while the Western Union Telegraph
Company'h holdings in the state are
valued at s2.O92, 100, an increase Of
about $4,000.
The holdings of the Denver Tram
way Company have decreased a total
Of $4O8,94O since 1920, while the prop
erty value Of the Denver Gas and
Electric Light Company has increased
since the last valuation exactly $1,1S3,-
$50. A decrease also was made in the
valuation of the Colorado Power Com
pany. The 1921 valuation is placed at
S5,6O2, 400, compared with $5,963, $50 in
1920.

Transition From Poverty to compar
alive Affiusnes Accompanied by
Traditional "Fly In Ointment"

This is story Of luck following q
sequel as the most imaginative writer
Of comedy could invent. And this
story Is true, says a London dispatch
to the New York Sun. The hero Is .
young British ex-ofiicer. Captain
Greenwood. who. having been through
very rough time during the Russian
campaign. managed to escape from
the land of the Reds with his young
Russian wife. They arrived In Lon-
don some months ago, friendless. near
ly penniless and with no prospects at
all.
Captain Greenwood tried to get a
Job but, as previous to the war he
had lived with his parents (now dead)
In the country and had not yet ven-
tured into self-supporting state Of
existence. his wage-earning capacity
was restricted to narrow field.
Finally one day, borrowing enough
money. he put an advertisement in a
daily paper. in which he stated that a
young English officer who had to sup
port his wife was ''down and out" and
willing to accept any job. He stated
that he was country born and bred.
knew all about animals and a great
deal about farming, and was willing
to serve ION the land" In any ca
pacity.
Captain Greenwood received only
one answer, and this was from a Mrs.
Christie. resident in Shropshire. She
said she liked the wording Of his ad-
vertisement and as she was coming to
London would interview him at her
hotel on certain day. He kept the
appointment and within an hour was
engaged for a position as a sort of
manager and overseer Of this wealthy
woman's Shropshire estate.
He and his wife now live In castle,
rent free. food free, servant free. He
receives salary of $500 a year. has
the use Of horses and carriages and
Is In control Of hundreds Of acres Of
land. The only stipulation made by
his generous and somewhat eccentric
benefactress Is that no animal in the
castle or on the estate shall be killed.
Fat cattle range the hills, rabbits in
fest the woods, cats raise huge fam.
lilies, dogs are to be counted by the
dozen and (here comes the fly In the
ointment) rats as big as puppies roam
through the corridors and rooms Of
the splendid Tudor mansion.
None Of these creatures. nor any
bird or fowl Is allowed to die by any
save natural death. and Capt. and
Mrs. Greenwood are obliged to be
vegetarians. They can use all the
butter, milk, eggs and other farm pro-
duce that they want, but II they have
yearning for roast chicken or a
beefsteak they have to drive to the
nearest town and go to hotel in or
der to crafty their desire for meat.
1t Is easy to become vegetarian un-
der such delightful auspices, but Mrs.
Greenwood Is doubtful about those
rats.
