INDIAN FIGHTER.
GOES WEST
At HOME
AureIius (Smoky) Mills Was
Picturesque Figure on
Frontier
BY International News Service

DENVER, Sept. 25.-Aurelius
(Smoky) Mills, picturesque Indian
fighter, stage coach driver and
pioneer of the old West, is dead
here at the age of seventy-eight,
and with the passing of the veteran
another gap appears In the thin
ranks of adventurous old timers
Born in Iowa, Smoky" Minis as
a boy found life a little tame for
his daring spirit and induced his
father and mother to pack their
few possessions, hitch up an old
covered, wagon and set out for the
mysterious Golden West.
Seventeen Years Old Then
Smoky was barely seventeen
years of age at the time, but" being
stalwart and brave he was prepared
for the hardships encountered in
the cross-country covered wagon"
journey.
At the age of eighteen Mills
began prospecting near Central
City, one of the early bonanza min
ing camps of Colorado, and, despite
his failure to strike rich pay
dirt" the youth continued in the
mining game from time to time,
Cripple Creek, Leadville and Victor
being included in his activities.
Drove Stage Coaches
Driving stage coaches and fight
ing Indians and desperate holdup
gangs were other adventures OF
Smoky" In 1869 and 1870 he
drove a big eight-horse coach be-
tween Rawlins and Lander, Wyo.,
and attacks by Indian bands were
frequent. !
Several times Mills narrowly
escaped with his life in attempting
to fight off highwaymen who were
bent upon robbing his coach.
Late in LIE Mills came to Den
Yer, where for some years he was
employed as driver. of heavy four
horse fire wagon.

superiority of the city manager rule.

us to map out details of our plan.
When we do start we are going in

More than enough signatures to
bring about an election on the new
form were secured by workers pre-
vious to the city primary. 1t has
been pointed out the reason the petit
ton calling for an election was not
filed before the primary was be-
cause it was believed voters had

Dear Mr.. F'ixit: Between New

place to the Holiday Bldg, where
our business is located, that we can
park our auto over one and one-half
hours. There apparently is po-
lice rule requiring parallel to curb
parking on this street, although the
street Is one of the widest and most
suitable for angular parking in the
city. If the latter method were fol
lowed, about three times as many
cars could be accommodated as at
present, besiG 5 facilitating getting
cars in and out.
Will you kindly try to have the
rule on this changed and accommo-
date all who are obliged to park
their cars in the above block?
