Ilot'K llumi : , Col. , February 25.
Ao I sat , lost nitfht , in a minor's cabin ,
about a half-mile below lioro , in thoguljh
the cabin of n minor who hm tripled
and climbed and prospected these ancient -
ciont hills for moro than 20 years , and ,
like many othore , lias fairly less of this
world's goods than ho began with the
conversation , quite naturally , drifted to
the events of "old tltnoi" in the moun
tains. My friends has a vast fund of en
tertaining incidents relating to this sec
tion , nnd so , after the uua ( pipe-filling
and cheering cup , ho inquired if I hade
oor hoard of the Hspinosaa , _ Doing a
comparative tender-foot , thot is , a newcomer
comer ) , and quito unfamiliar with the
stirring occurrences for which Colorado
was in ita uarlicr years noted , I had to
confess my titter ignorance of the subject
ho had broached. As it proved to bo an
interesting nnd tragic tale , I will nttompt
to reproduce it hero ; but I cannot hope
to give it in the uncouth , yet forcible
words of the bronzed old man who re
lated it ,
In 1803 the settlement of Colorado was
but 4 yoara old. The gold excitement
had brought into the territory , howoyor ,
a , largo , hardy , nnd peculiar population.
Denver ( Auraria as it was originally
called from the discovery of auriferous
deposits in that neighborhood ) was but n
small cluster of shanties and tents sot up
for temporary occupancy. Aside from
this there wore few towns , save in
southern Colorado , where the Mexican
element had drifted and established in
significant settlements which could boast
of little besides a name. Fresh discove
ries of gold wore being made , however ,
and Russell Gulch was fast developing
what subsequently became nn important
mining centre at Central , Black Hawk ,
and adjacent points , A few hardy pioneers
neers had pushed out beyond and Bottled
Brockonriago , Fairplay , Ore City , while
down by the foot-hills , like sentinels to
the fastnesses nbovoworo Colorado City ,
onoo the capital , before it was removed
to Golden ; Canyon City , Badito , and
other moro snooks upon the then almost
unbroken region. These were all , at
best , moro handfuls of people , but all
wore earnest , determined , hopeful men.
The search for gold had led them out
from thn overcrowded east , and they
came to found a future great state ,
There was much excitement hero then ,
both from local and outside causes. Rebellion -
bollion in the southern states , and the
development of that spirit hero had
caused n fooling of great unrest and
trouble lurked everywhere Confeder
ate plans for acquiring this territory
wore fortunately chocked by the vigilant
Gilpin at Pigeon Ranch. Indians threat
ened the borders likewise , and their
depredations finally led to Chivington'a
awful punishment of this enemy at Sand
Crook. Desperadoes scourged the inin
ing camps nnd larger towns , until vigi
lance committees took hold and admin
istered the justice that tro law could
nob. During tlioso troublous days in
18C3 an unknown danger cnr.io. Su
mysteriously did it work that for the
time it fairly paralyzed the mountain
communities. In Muroli nine men had
been found dead along the trails near (
Canon City. Each man had a bullo in
his head. So nearly similar were the
death wounds that these mysterious as
sassinations nautarally gave rise to much
speculation. And this was increased
when it was learned that three 'weeks '
before two mon had been similarly killed
in Santa Fo , nnd also a soldier in Con-
ujos. Thus , as far as could bo discover
ed , a bloody trail had its' origin iu the
/ity of the Saints , in l ow
tfoxioo , and reached now RB
ar ns Canon City , The news of
.ho . terrible crimes , of course , spread rap-
dly , but it could scarcely keep up with
-holr commission. Along the mountain
roads dead bodies wore found , each with
/ho fatal bullet in its skull. No victim
attacked over told the talo. The rillo
; hat sighted him carried certain death
with its missilo. Minors trudging their
weary way up the mountain trails , team
sters with horses and vehicles , mot thor
'ate alike , One singular fact appeared
bo this , that all wore killed in the
wagon roads or on the trails ; none were
over found off the beaten paths. Of
: ouno , the people became appalled , and
hardly dared to venture beyond the roach
of immediate aid. No one could toll
from what concealment the messenger of
ilouth that had never missed its mark
might in its turn roach him. Dread de
spair prevailed ; the fear of an unknown
fee pervaded the hearts of these pioneers
who dared face any danger openly. In
fact , a reign of terror prevailed , Tint as
sassinations became more frequent ; Mon
would leave their cabins , camps , or the
mountain cities for remote sections only
to bo found , perhaps , n few days later by
moro fortunate travelers , dead , and in
their skulls the small hole through which
their lives wont nut.
Finally , a company of twenty volunteers
was raised in Park county. Their loader
was a man of great bravery , and every
man in the party was ready to lay down
his lifo to Bolvo the mystery. The first
work this company did was to punish a
band of notorious thieves that had boon
engaged robbing minors' cabins nnd
flumes , and who wore well known. But
this did not stop the dread work of
mysterious murders. At Rod Rock
Ridge right hero , by the way , where I
write this letter and all along the trail ,
murdered men wore found singly and in
pairs. And always the same wound ,
the same sized bullet , the same trained
hand , evidently , had fired the fatal
shot.
shot.A
A few days later the band of volunteers ,
in scouring the neighborhood , found n
trail in the lower part of the South park
that led toward Canon city. It was early
in the forenoon when the trail was
struck. They at once took it up , and
after having traveled some distance in the
mountains canto about noon upon two
horses feeding. This was to them a
strange diccovory , as this was not a region
where prospecting was then carried on.
It was the work of a moment to
conceal themselves. Shortly after two
mon appeared. They had evidently made
their camp hero for the day , for juat IHI-
yond the IIOMOS a small fire wa burning ,
and beyond doubt they worn partaking oi
their meal , Wily as thso mon wore they
had been taken mmwurcn. The scouting
party had drawn upon them before thuy
were a ware of their presence. Certain
that these were the mon they ouuhtand
with the memory of their fiendish dcodi
bp.ioro them rifles were at once brought t
, to bear and bullets sent speeding on theii
deathly errands The larger of the two
men foil , but was not killed. Raising
himself upon one arm , ho fought like a
wounded tiger. " His unerring aim
brought down two of his advaaarios be
fore n second bullet struck him nnd laid
liitn dead. The other man , the younger
ono , WAS ovidon'ly unharmed by the first
volley , for with the ngility of n goat ho
sprang into the rocks , scrambled nway ,
nnd made his escape.
Thee two mon wore the notorious Es-
pinosas , outlaws fromMoxico , two cousins.
This was discovered when the body of
the dead assassin was examined , a ) well
ns the snddlo-biga , which were foun 1
near thn firo. In a buckskin big sus
pended about his neck was nn illiterate
Spanish manuscript written by the older
Ktpinosa , It consisted of n singular
prayer nnd whnt was evidently intended
ns n statement of the purpose for which
ho had sot out upon this mission of blood.
From these it was learned that ho had
begun ns a religious monomaniac. His
father it appeared had boon guilty of
murder , nnd , no ran the manuscript , this
present elder Espinosa had been impelled
by his patron saint to commit those
deeds for the purpose of expiating
the father's sins which had been visitcp
upon him. To do this ho was to
number 00 victims , nnd to go on , on , on
until this was done but all his victims
must bo white men. Not until this was
accomplished could ho hope to merit fa
vor from his ruling spirit ; never would
its smile fall upon him and his father's
sin bo atoned until this was done. With
this task before him , ho enlisted a cousin
in his cause , nnd together they started
north from Chiahunhua. It was n trail
of blood thov loft behind ( horn , From a
record the older Egpinosa had kept ho
had at that time murdered 30 white mon ,
27 of of whom had boon killed in Colora
do , after leaving Conojos. Ho wna n
largo , conrso , hnrd-visagod ruffian , while
his companion was small , and , as near as
could bo judged by these who saw him on
the day of the encounter , of no particular
individuality.
It was evident that gain hid played no
part in this mission of the elder Espinosa.
None of the bodies of his victims had
boon robbed as had been noted by the
people of the neighborhood where' they
wore found from time to time. The
arch-assassin was meanly clad in buck
skin , and there was nothing in his saddle
bags beyond what has already boon men
tioned , save ammunition. Murder alone
was the object of this maniac.
The scouting party searched several
days for the younger Espinosa , but with
out siitccs * . No trace of him was over
found. The head of the dead outlaw -was
cut from the body , and was taken back
to Fairplay an a trophy of the remarkable
chaso. For years the skull was in the
possession of a well-known physician in
southern Colorado , while a knife the as-
Bosnian carried was long preserved among
the the territorial properties. His rifle ,
which had carried death to so many vic
tims , can bo seen any time in Denver in
the homo of an old mountaineer , then
poor , but who is now ono of the mining
kings of the state.

ho settlers there. An act of his at that
inssacra is nllcgcd to havn led to his own
cath nt the hands of an Indian enemy ,
n adopted son of the peaceable chief ,
Jornplantcr , Young Cornplantor , who
was friendly to the whites , hearing that
n attack mi the Harpcraiiold settlement
was contemplated , sent a squaw of his
wn tribe , clear from the shores of the

oador of the hostile band.
When this became known to young

mistaken identity. 1 know Mr. Wyinai
fairly well ; traveled with him over the
Rookv m mntains toward the Pacific last
summer , and became reasonably intimuto
with hts peculiarities , Ho was formerly
an extensive manufacturer nt Providence
and is n < ) w n gentleman of elegant leisure
of the Tom Oohjltroo typo. Of the party
of which I happened to bo a niombor ,
wore twn or three English noblomoii , a

MION ON TUB
on Itiillwnyit nnd Seeming to
be Perfectly at Hume ,
Indianapolis Journal ,
A passenger conductor remarked yes
terday that if it had not been for thn
commercial travellers , actors and ac
tresses it would hardly have'paid to run
trains on some days the past winter over
his road , and fortunately this class of
travel was heaviest on Mondays and Fri
days , when other travel was light. In
fact , said ho , railroading would seem
monotonous were it not for the commer
cial travellers. The Philadelphia Times
in a legnthy article on this same matter
enys : "There is a distinct population that
is constantly growing. It is composed of
commercial travellers , lecturers , show
agents , actors and actrcsips. They cat
moro metis in hotel-cars and railroad
meal-stations than they do at homo or , in
hotels. They spend moro nights in
sleeping-car bunks than in bods. To a
person who travels only occasionally it is
interesting to note how thoroughly equip
ped these professional jqurneyers are.
Upon entering a slooping-car early in the
evening , for instance , they remove their
shoes and put on slippers , lung their hats
up and don silk travelling-caps , take off
their coats and put on short sick coats or
Bmoking-jiickota.
'In the morning , when the occasional
traveler , obliged to wear the only cloth
ing ho has brought , goes to the toilet
compartment in hii coat nnd vest , nnd
thus struggles in nn cflbrt to cleanse his
ikin without soaping his sleeves or his
coat 0'illar , these professionals again ex
cite his envy. They come along all
Hiules , having slept well , and fooling
perfectly at homo , They hang up thiir
smoking jackets nnd dUplays snowy night
robes , ornamented with colored binding
atid oraid , and capable of being thrown
onoii at the nock and rolled up nbuvo the
elbows. From a pocket in the suspended
jacket ono produces an ivory backed
crush and costly comb , a tooth brush ,
and porhsps a nickol-plutod soap box ,
Another opens out a prettily embroidered
receptacle , composed of many folds , each
one a pocket and each ono labelled. In
tlioso pockets are a comb , a brush , a
tooth brush , shaving brush , soap box ,
pair of I'oisir cases , nail brush , whisk
broom , hand glass and cologne bottle.
1 heir familiarity with their surroundings
inns noticeublo a part of their equipment.
A glmico out of the car window is ul-
most certain to reveal to them their
' hereabout when they arise or when
they are waked up , or about to go to bed ,
yjioy carry time tables in thuir heads ,
ind give good udvico as to which station
Jus the boat caterer , They nro sociable
and democratic. "
