BURIED UNDER LAND
SLIDE = LIVES TO TELL

Hugo Crause, brother of Mrs.
Thos. Osborne. who resides in lower
California, went through an unusual
experience n day last week and
it seems like a miracle that he lives
to tell about it. He was completely
covered with dirt and rock which
slid from a bank twelve feet above
and escaped with only slight bruises
and cuts, and possibly a broken rib
or two.
The accident occurred when he,
with Mr.. Osborne and two workmen,
went TO a gulch near Coyote canyon
to repair a bridge which had be-
come a great hazard to all who used
it. Testing the bank above, the
men started to dig a trench below,
into which they proposed to place a
beam and thereby place strong sup
pc1s for the bridge above. AS, the
earth was removed below, and with
out the slightest warning, the entire
embankment above moved down and
caught Mr.. Crause, narrowly miss
ing Mr.. Osborne.
Catching a glimpse of Mr.. Crause's
blue shirt the workmen frantically
started to dig him out, hardly hop
ing that he could be buried under
the tons of dirt as he was and es-
cape death. However. in falling
he had placed his arm over and
before his face, and thus escaped
suffocation for the few minutes he
vas held a prisoner. Although his
head was buried only a few inches,
the lower part of his body had sew
eral feet of earth and rock upon it.
and as a result he was bdly bruised
bout the hips and maybe a. rib or
two broken.

INDUSTRY AND PATIENCE KEY TO
SUCCESS SAYS BURLINGTON CHIEF
margaret Hayden)

Hale Holden, president of the
Burlington railroad. that has for 23
years linked Cody with the rest of
the rallied world. on last Wednesday
evening from his summer-robed pri-
vate car, exchanged greetings with
the Cody club through one of its
members, who was introduced by
j. H. Patrick, the Cody-Burlington
hyphen.
President Holden was rejoicing in
Yellowstone freshness and fairness.
having just returned from the park
OF parks through the east gateway,
which, with the splendid newly fin
1shed double-track highway, he de-
clared to be easily the favorite ap-
proach to the four-square play
ground. He denied being on a va
cation trip, but declared his purpose
to be the obtaining of a first hand
knowledge of service conditions, that
patrons might continue
to trough it de luxe" in increasing
degrees.
Mr.. Holden vas entirely pleased
with their new project, the Cody
Inn, and deeply impressed with park
progress. contrasting conditions be-
tween the old stage days, and the
present hot-and-cold water. excellent
food and comfortable camps and
cabin regime. where Ford and Lin
coln brother find every desire graf
fled.
Speaking of the settlement prob
lem. Mr.. Holden said these condi-
tons had changed with the change
In the immigration policy of the
government; formerly they brought
hundreds of foreigners who are the
grandfathers of our present splendid
citizenry; now the movement west
ward must needs be more gradual.
and Wyoming, as well as other west
ern states, will increase through her
population and the immigra-l
ton of people from our own eastern
territory. Thinking If our great
irrigation opportunities, President
Holden said the surface of Wyoming
had not yet bee scratched and he

physical and mental. to come into

net of natural and spiritual esourc-
es.
Asked the qualities that make for
success, the big chief named indus
try, patience patience with our
selves and others; and industry, said
he. involves courage and determin-
ation.' which means. in short, that
a man will stick to his Job; and
there are more $4,000 a year va
c%ancies than 800 a month, for there
are none of the latter; and it is
not the kind of service so much as
quality of service that measures one
and determines his advancement.
Patience means that we must go
through the preparatory period and
endure ~hardships and disappoint-
ments, but by patience and industry
every American who hasa good
mind and a good body is bound to
succeed. 1 do not take much stock
in geniuses nor those exceptional
cases or They are always
interesting but sometimes they are
misleading. There is no magic in
railroading o in any other BUS
mess. but hard work and patience,
together with a human understand
ing of other people will build a flu
ture.'
AS more of an added than an
after-thought. the great executive
said that without righteous en-
thusiasm for work everything is a
failure.
From general expressions follow
ing in the wake of their chief, there
was a pre-conceived conviction that
the priceless asset of loyalty had
done its share in filling the %"
vacancy.
Rejecting upon Mr.. Holden's at
titude toward the immense and not
inaccessible Shoshone tie timber sup
ply, reminded of Southwell's lines:
After wits r dearly bought,
Let thy fore-wit guide thy thought"
He said he had not spent much
looking backward, but speak
ing for the company said they are
interested to increase the produc-
ton of ties along their w road
and are always willing to inves-
tigate any opportunity to secure a
supply of sound ties
along the Burlington lines.
