ivo years. The sun may glare fierce-
y all day , but any where in the shade

> ered icfreshingly , The actual merits
> f the place were forced upon us by
icaring an honestfaced woman on thu
raindcolareth.it "Denver was atif-
ng , " tint she "most melted down
here. " Down there , so contemptuous *
y spoken of , only lies a tritlo of 5-
00 feet above the se.i level , and one
jot accustomed to its elear , day air
Inds all their winter bloathing still
latcftil. The Denver citiren thinks
t is very warm , and will sit mopping
tis brow * and pulling when an Eiistorn
onder-foot wants an extr.i wrap to go
iding w ith. As for that thankless
voinan of Georgetown , 1 should like
o put her on the beach at Long
Jr.inch any of these d.ijs and see if
would ever call Denver hot ng.iin ,

iionntants might snoil onofor the city
.valls are piccipitous mountain sides ,
vith snow pitches sinning tluougli the
tine trees , and the etein.il snows of
3ray's Peak alwa\s in sight. Clear
3reek is a clear creek alonu here ; and
las an icy ripple to it as it te.irs
the valley , every bouldei ,
and strip of s.ind in its bed
v isible. Lying at the head of u nar
row valley , the "Silver QUCIMI , " as
-hoy - c.ill Georgetown , is shut in on
every side by the steep npur * of the
nount.iins , and the roada out of it
mist either wind tip the di/.y slopes ,
> r twist their way along the creek
Gray's Peak , th.it is Hhaip , black
ind white by twilight , and h.is all the
Ia7/ling retlections of blue and loao
ind gold at sunset , lies fourteen miles
'roin the town , and crowns the inottii-
: ain region. This "Dome of the Con-
: inent is ,1 fine old giant in the range
> f hoary Biimmits th.it are in line with
it , and at its feet lies the silver belt in
hieh the minors of Centi.il City and
icorgotowii have so lonu woikeit. An
pportunity to approach the Pc.ik
was given in an invitation fium the
malinger of the Atl.iutic nnd Pacific
Tunnel compiny to lidooutto their
c.uup on Kelso Mountain. The tunnel
nol , wliich proposes to pinrce both
Kelso .ind Gray's Peak , will emerge
.it the west end of its four miles on the
other side of the gre.it watershed ol
the continent , and thus g.iins its dou
ble mime. The w.iter that diains
fiom ono end of the tunnel willlim
its way to the Gulf of Mexico ; fron
the other end it will bo carried oft to
the Pacific ocean.
At that early hour thoic was a
stiingof miners with their dinner
c.ms going up and down the road , ami
climbing up the narrow paths ainom
the rocks , some of them so high ii\
th.it it was only by : i lollection of the
swinging cans that they could be
sighted. A grilled old fellow , sit
ting on n rock with a can on his knees
ae us a. comprehensive glance as wo
How by. Then wo learned that his
was the pioud pleasure to have crush
ed one of the swell young lawycis
sent out by a New Yoilc mining com
piiny to manage one of their cases
The precocious young spiig of Goth
am undertook to be loftily . humoious
in his cross-questioning of this piece
of old bed rock. The old piospectoi
is noted for his sharp-edged tongue
and , glaring ferociously at the strip
ling lawyer , answered his questions ii
ihumler tones. "I've been a minor
forty-yenis , " ho replied , taking in the
mc.isuro of his young prosecutor with
such a glance that the youngster sooi
dismissed the witness amid a tearing
court-ioom.
Further on a darky lounging in .
dooiway attracted all eyes , niidprorat
to bo the superintendent of a tunne
company , a high-handed , autoci.itic
overseer of a lot of white woikmen
His contempt for his white slaves is
boundless' , and when the Irish ser
daw dies along and diags his heels ii
unconcern , the ebon ovorsRor tells
him that "if he had him down Sputl
lie would sell him. " How the times
do change , nnd the customs with
them !
To those who aio up on niininj ,
news nnd posted in mining history
the sight of the Tornblo mine , the
Silver Plume , the Dives and Pelican
and n do/cn celebrated workings tha
wore pointed out , might have beei
highly inteiesting. To us tlmro was
inoro in the pictuicsque confusion ol
the hills , the tendings and cascades
of the creek , and the constantly near
ing snow peaks.
"Over theio , " quoth Mr. Kelly
indicating n ragged lull-side .vith 1m
whip-lash , "have been found some o
the i ichest pieces of 'Hoat' in the
country , but the piospcctors have
been 'digging for ten years , withou
finding the vein. " And , sure enough
the hill-aide was scratched , dug eve
and pioiccd with innumciable holes
as if w ild animals had been tcaiing i
up. Tlio patient prospector has tue <
every foot of the ground in vain , am
given the tantalizing thing un , only
to bo followed by another , ami ho by
others ,
lUriNO UP THIS VAM.BV ,
beside the creek in its leaps , windings
and lo.irings through miniatuio canyons
yens , the HurioimdiiigH giow all the
time wilder , and after seven miles erse
so wo left this load , that in midsum
inor leads on over the snowy sum
mits to Loadvillo. Xig igging up i
steep npur of McClcllan mountain , the
thick pines make dense _ shadows ii
the gorges below and hide the slopes
above. The trees mark the way 01
either hand with a thick , dark wall o
trunks and branches , and between
thorn ono gets an occasional glimpse ,
upward and outward of darling miow
fields and hoary summits.
In the open places , tlio nmik of the
timber line , the limit of regular vcgo
tation on the mountains , can bo seei
on all tlio heights near , and way
above this inhospitable region were
the dump piles and buildings of mines
Those swallows' nests in the air , where
the men work in w inter as well a
summer , are most astonishing , and i
is a mystery how some of them nr
leached. Hard us it may bo to get ute
to them in winter , the ininors have
way of getting down that far exceed
bobsledding in swift excitement. Th
reckless fellows sit on their spades
with the handle in front of them
their picks over their shoulder *
, nd win down like streaks of blue
can lightning. They keep this ni >
intil tliey wear n groove in the snow
0 deep and smooth that they can
lido dow n w ithout shovels , and then
heir vv inter sport is at its height.
At the Atlantic end of the now tun
iel wore workmen putting up stone
iiiildingj to replace the piesont lot ;
tructures , and utilizing for it the
ramto blasted out of the heart of old
velso. Cairjim , ' sputtering candles

no stalwait llguro holding and him

lesule him raining down their blows
vith such force that you could lie.u
lin whistle of the hammers through

vas a fascination in the regular
hythin of the blows , the free sweep

ho perfect poito of the figures. What

il.iughter ill-law to help her , the
chuery old l.idy is ready to welcome
the strangers and accommodate them
in her rude but spotlessly clean cabin.
The mugs of wild lloweis in the windows
dews and the perfect neatness of the
little rooms delight the eye , and on
her berullled pillows , with the lullaby
of thu pine tiees and the brooklet ,
mo could find the blisstul , dreamless
sleep if anywhere in the world.
It was ari.ingod for us to start .is
early as ( i o'clock in the morning , so
.is to get over the steoi'est ridu befoio
the heat of the day. The heaf pt the
day , forsooth. When I shivered down
stairs in ulster and heaviest wrap
pings , and bogged to go to the fire ,
anywhere to thaw out my benumbed
fnigeis , the waiter gills at the Barton
house rustled around the dining-room
in their freshly starched c.dico dresses
and complacently said that maybe it
might seem cold to us , but that thoj
never noticed it.
THE KKIN , coot , am OUT noons
made the horses frolicsome as kittens ,
and they started oil'with a bound that
made the piospoctivo ton miles dwin
dle considerably. With doubled lap-
robes the way was cool and a naifl'
w oultl have been the most acceptable
thing in the world. Climbing up the
side of n hill on a lodge of road , there
weie glimpses of tiny sti earns trickling
down fiom the snows above , and one
that fell ov or a long , smooth rock on
the hillside is what the Georgetown
people have called .Bridal Veil. It is
the most aiiy , gossamer bit of water ,
and in its si/.e and shape wholly fits
out the semblance to a iluating veil of
tulle.
tulle.Around
Around this cabin , side by side with
the snow , aio patches of ground pur-
plu with the delicate anemones and
blue with the bluebells , that bloomed
ovci a month ago on the plains. A
mile further up , at the Stevens mine ,
aio big bluebells , such bluebells as no
ono could resist. Though to reach
thu place the wheels sank deep in
slush and the melting snow .stud ; in
the horses' feet , the flowers grow oven
more luxuriantly than below timber
line. Through openings way up on
the face of the rock the oru from the
mine was shot down in buckets that
moved on invisible wires and rolled
down iii cars that traversed a nearly
perpendicular track , an empty car be
ing draw n up by the weight of tha de
scending one. .At this level of it,000 :
feet there was wonderful optical de
ceptions in the thin air , nnd it was
perfectly useless to try to guess at
distances. The cook of this mine i an
foith eagerly to see what sliango
vvhools had come that way , nnd to in
sist that vvo should all enter and p ir-
t.iku of his freshly baked mince pies ,
A mince pie in June if ) inther out of
Ncason , but with snow nil aiound one
and Hakes of snow beginning to lloat
in the air , it was nil in keeping , and
we did justice and paid all honois to
the cook and his pit's.
Gatheiing the big bluo-bolls with
Hiiovv-flakes in their n/.uiu cups , ane
mones and their fu//y little seed balls ,
binning buds of Indian pinks , tiny
dwarf Hiin-llowcis and the countless
yellow blossoms , I had noon a double
handful | of flowers , The French cook
at the tunnel put them in a tin can , to
giacu thu end of the tublu in the mess-
room , and mourned and vvnnduicd
that wo hud no greater appotifesjaftor
such an early breakfast. Not ono of
us dared confess thu treachery of the
mince pics at the Stevens' mint. ' , and
wo worked hoioiudly nt the beauti
fully biowned cutlets just to spaiu the
artist's feelings.
Holding my tin can of lloweis in
both hands all thu way down , to
Georgetown , I filled it up again with
ice-water , preparing to c.ury my Al-
line trophies into Denver. Bitting in
thu car , thu first woman untored and
smiled when she saw thu great bou
quet. '
"Oh ! you've been up above the lino.
How lovely they are ! And that is the
seed-ball of thu anunipnu of which
Helen Hunt speaks in 'Bits of
Travel.1"
Another lady entered. "Why , have
you boon on ithu Peak ? You know
what Hoi on Hunt says of thu ane
mone's Bood-ball ? "
A third wearer of a Thompson ware
came , stopped at my flowers and said ,
Whore did jou get them ? Oh'
those anemones' Helen Hunt"
It was too much , and I interrupted
with n question of my own about a
tinner tlmt I was perfectly well no-
luamtcd w ith.
"That's thejcllow sweet-pea , " she
inswcred mo ; "thcio's a great deal of
such papilionaceous growth in those
mountains Helen Hunt"
Her wools struck unheeding ears ,
i fni I was stunned with the polysylla
' ble reply Then along camu a great
tall man , an amiable giant , whoso ca-
diverous countenance lighted with
smiles when ho saw the ( lowers that t
I was so carefully holding ,
I "I know whore jou'vo 110011,1110111' '
Let mo IK it for you , vvhoio it won't
upset. " And with lire shovels nud
lights of coal , ho wedged it in so that
| all the pitching and jeiking of the
train disturbed it not ,
The ride of fifty miles through the
v alloy and canyon of Uloar CIOOK , and
acioss the plain to Denver , just as the
last light was fading from the sunset
sky , is ono never to bo forgotten
Kvery foot of the wixy is beautiful *
| and in the wilder parts of the canyon
i'iu pair of eyes hardly sulHced. In
1 the open observation car thoio was lit
tle annoyance from smoke or cindeis ,
1
as in the descent of . ' ) ,000 foot but lit-
| . tie steam is needed to pull the train ,
| Clear Ciuek canon was ono bed of
i ( lowers nnd omy thing that can hloout
| in this lovely month shook out its
blossoms in that favored spot. Thick
ets and mats of wild rosi'.s made the
air fiagiant ; Indian pinks made blares
of color on the banks ; purple thistles
and hugo ticmblmg white-poppies grew
I almost within loach , cactus blossoms ,
| cnmson , golden , gicen and salmon
color , eovciod the tocky ground , and
wild geranium and wild v in buna , a
do/on difleient yellow lloweis , and
the stately yucca blossoms , with their
score of drooping creamy cups , wuro
enough to send one into ocstacie.s' .

d out the very beam of the biidgo

unny man of the Soldcnu company ,

mbecilu bdlad of "All on Account of

er into thu stream to HC.IIU his wife ,

him off in a trice , and biiilottod him
against its tenible rocks without a

wide as his w heels could stand on
' there were thu straight rocks up 01
ono side and the boiling current dowi
on the other , nnd no possibility o
turning. Thu helpless teamster sa
down in his ften/y , put his elbows 01
his knees and his chin in his hands
and swore , not in thu feeble , incomplete
pleto and impoverished phraseology
of to-day , but swore the picturesque
and resounding oaths of the day o

the rocky canyon swearing away fo :

At last he swam his horses by , hitchei
