M|N|NG NOTES
FROM AROUND
THE COUNTY

VIM. r. Riddle and son, VIM. Jr., Of
Pittsburg, Penn. went thru to Crested
Butte Wednesday. Mr.. Riddle is a
director Of the Allied Mines Corpora
tion, owning the Augusta, and is out
lining work on that property for the
summer. There is still little snow
around Little Pittsburg, at the foot
Of Augusta mountain.
After several days in Gunnison on
business, i. l.. Johnson left Monday
for Tin Cup to look up matters con-
nected with the Gold Cup group of
mines, which he is planning to oper-
ate this summer. Mr.. johnson il
much interested in the possibilities Of
smelter at Gunnison, and belives
mining conditions are ripe to sup
port one. He also has some sugges-
tons to make concerning the govern
ment road out Of Taylor park into
the Arkanas valley concerning which
he ha promised to write to the News
Champion more at length.
Henry Bright made trip in from
Taylor park Monday after supplies
for the summer. He is intensely in
terested in the proposed government
road into Taylor park, and sees the
long cherished hope of his life realiz-
ed If 1t goes thru as he believes. He
figures as outlined in the News Cham-
pion last week that the thru road to
Buena Vista would be just about 60
miles from Gunnison, perhaps trifie
longer, depending on the surveys and
grades.
Mr.. Bright is also a strong believer
in the park for agriculture, having
made ranching success there for
many years.

Colorado Mountains Sound the Call Of Outdoors

country in the United States, and
on every side the green clad noun
tains send forth an almost irresistible
call to the winter-weary town DWELL
ers. One could literally devote years
To the exploration of Gunnison county
and still find nnnumbered bright spots
in the ever-changing panorama of
mountain, forest and stream.
For q starter, one may take some
thing like rs one-day trips with Gum
nison as base of operations. Gun
nison county is of a surety natures
department store-everything and
anything you may want. From a
two-hour jaunt to the Palisades west
Of town, to two-week trip into
Taylor Park. With each passing
year the network of county and state
auto roads turnout the mountains is
increasing, until now q car can come
within good striking distance of
practically every beauty spot in the
county.
One of the finest of two-day motor
trips is to make the circle trip to
Crested Butte, thence to Somerset
and down the North Fork valley to
Hotchkiss and back to Gunnison over
the Black Mesa road, or on down to
Delta and thru Montrose and over the
Blue Mesa. Toward Crested Butte
exists veritable mountain wonder
land. Eleven miles north Of Gunni-
son. on The Crested Butte road, 1t Al
mont, the Gunnison river IL formed
by the confluence Of Taylor river and
East river. This spot In itself In
beauty spot good for . weeks invesd-
CATION. From Alm6nt one may 10 on
toward Crested Butte, on the excel
lent East river auto road, or on up
Taylor river. One may continue up
Slate river from Crested Butte ~ far
is to Irwin and Lake Brennan. This
Is one OF the finest trips in the coun-
ty, and can be made entirely with
car over good roads. The road to
Irwin branches from the main Crest
ed Butte-Somerset road near the top
Of the divide. Here one II surrounded
by majestic snow-capped peaks in the
middle Of the summer. Ice-cold wat
er, plenty Of firewood, and short hik-
ing expeditions In ali directions make
this Z beautiful camping location.
The deserted mining camp Of Irwin
andthe surrounding mines offer many
attractions for NJ afternoon's jaunt.

ed Butte II to Gothic, about twelve
miles north. This II another desert

IS ACRES FOR PARKS
IS GIFT TO ATLANTA

ATLANTA, March 16.-Offer to
deed the city 85 acres of land in
Druid Hills for park purposes without
any conditions, has iSen made for
mally to Mayor Key by Forrest Adair
head of the Adair Realty and Trust
Co., and it met promptly with appro-
val of the mayor. The offer was
made in behalf of the Druid Hills
Land company, of which Mr. Adair
is an officer.
Not since the donation of Grant
Park to the city has such large
tract been offered to the city for park
purposes free, according to the may
or. The acreage is said to involve
several tracts through Druid Hills
and will compose several parks IN
stead of only one, it is said. Council
will act on the offer next Monday.
The mayor was highly enthusiastic
over the offer. Atlanta has won
fame over the nation through the
building of system of parks and /
am only too glad to encourage addi-
tional parks" he said.

EASY RULES GIVEN
FOR PUNCTUATION

One of the first things that must
be learned by the young man or wo-
man who sets out to become a thor
oughly competent stenogrpaher is the
proper use of punctuation. Morris
w. Cross, PhD., of the Department
of English, Princeton University, has
contributed an-interesting and high
ly instructive chapter on this subject
in The New Universities Dictionary
being offered to the readers of this
paper.
Professor Croll explains how the
number of punctuation marks in COM
mon use has gradually increased with
the development of the art of print
ing. Through the use of these signs
the meaning of printed or written
discourse is rendered clearer to the
eye of the reader. how and when
10 use each of the twelve marks now
employed is fully explained by Prof.
Gross, and the rules he lays down
can be easily learned.
The remarkable success which has
attended this dictionary offer shows
that the people of this city appre-
ciate the opportunity given them to
secure at nominal cost such val
uable educational work.

The rise and fall Of pric. does not
affect his plants or his railroad.
"Steadiness of market means a
big saving in this. And Ford's min
ers share IN it. Hence the larger
salaries"
Ford's two mines employ some 375
miners. Six days week they turn
out 2,200 tons of coal daily.
Practically the same miners have
been on the job ever since Ford pur-
chased the mines.
A group of these miners We're
waiting at the general offices to make
out their income tax reports.

asked one of the young men,
Not in the Ford mine," he re-
piled. MANY of the men in other
mines are anxious to get on here.
The talk of strike isn't worrying us.
We are satisfied-that's why there's
a waiting list for jobs in our mine"
Ford purchased the mines from the
Banner Fork Coal Corporation, July
1920. He still operates under that
name, but he owns 100 per cent of
the stock.

that a man can belong to a union if
he wishes. We laid the mine jobs

Along with Ty Cobb and Harry
Heilman, wonderful sWatsmen of the
Detroit Club and who ranked first
and second for batting honors of the
American League last season will
come here on Tuesday, April a, the
next Golden Rule Sales Day, for the
Detroit Rochester exhibition game,
little Maurice Archdeacon, who is ev-
elywhere conceded to be the fastest
man who ever pulled on baseball
shoe. The records show it, for last
summer up on the Rochester clubs
home ground timed by three profess
si0nal timers, ArchdeacOn encircled
the bases in the wonderful time OF
13 2-5 seconds, thereby shattering a
record that had stood for years, inn
mune from assault. The South is
peculiarly interested III Archdeacon,
for the reason that he got his first
experience in the game in the South
Atlantic League and it was from
there that he was purchased by-the
Boston Braves.
Manager Mitchell, of the Braves,
however, questioned whether Arch
deacon was quite of major league
caliber. And thereupon Manager
George Stallings, who rates his own
judgment quite as good as any other
man, quickly grabbed him up, paying
$4,000 for his release. And events
Of the past year fully justified Stall
ings' judgment, and at the close Of
last season Archdeaeon could have
been sold to any one Of several big
league clubs for fabulous figure had
the Rochester owners been SO dis
posed.
Archdeacon is an outfelder, and
center is his regular position. And
how he can go and get EN-.
1y Cobb is justly famous for his
speed Watch Archdeacon in the
game in Amerieus, compare him get
ting down to first base with Cobb
and judge for yourselves if anywhere,
at any time, on any ball field, you
ever saw chap that could fairly
burn the base paths as can this same
Archdeacon once he is under way.
Archie is always threat whenever
he is at the bat or on the bases, for
opposing fielders never know just
what he is going to pull, or when
he is going to steal. He delights in
surprising the opposition by doing
the unusual. And in this he is GER
tainly an adept.
Cobb and his whole first string
team will play five or more innings
in the Americus game, their only ap-
.pearanee south Of Macon. Seats are
being erected for at least 5000 peo-
pie The game win take place at the
Americus Playground as benefit for
the playground association. The adj
mission win be $100 for adults and
so cents for children of school age.
