And Thomm Tulley, one time miner, editor, governor'! priv&te sac retary, and now deputy state treasurer of Colorado, rubbed his bald pate reflectively. A reflective rub looks Just like any ether kind, but tha novels always call them re flective when they are followed by a good atory. "Don't tell me about cyclones or earthquakes, or any such make-believe dancers. I can stand anything but the rip ping, splitting, crackling sound of a snow avalanche breaking loose from Its moor ings, and tha swish and roar and boom when It gets under way, and the snapping of trees and tha crashing of bowlders and trembling of the whole earth as it nears the bottom of the mountain and the sickness that comes over a fellow when It flirts past Within a few feet of him, kicking snow in kls face and making a plaything of rocks s big as a house and felling whole forests at a time. "I waa wrecked twice In one night by nowslldes In the Ban Juan and It was Just for a Joke, I guess, that one or the Other didn't mash me Into dust, or preserve me In Ice.

We were without any mail fur forty-two daj'F, und It was seventy-three days before wo got a train after that slide. Same winter, too, that the big Idaho slide came down from Kendall mountain and brought so many trees with it that the whole town of Bllvcrton was kept In fire wood for two years. Piled It right up In the town limits and smashed it Into stove slie, too. I was up on Kendall mountain on my uncle's mine, the Tituavllle. We had couple of fellows up there to look after the tblg stamp mill through the winter, and every few weeks Charley Price and I would go up to see how they were getting along. "It was too far to tramp back and forth to the bunk-house, so Dave Purdy and Will Kane, the two fellows who. were guarding the mill, had fixed up the assay office for a bedroom. That day when we got to the mill it began to snow, and we stayed all night. So we built up a roaring fire In the assay furnace and plied back on our blan kets In the other end of the room. The snow fell almost In blankets. It seemed, and the wind howled aVfully. Several times we heard the roar and smash and felt the building shake as a snowsllde went down some other part of the mountain, but we thought we were safe. No slide had ever touched that spot. I have looked over the ground since and I know Just how it hap pened, but It was more than a surprise that night when part of the avalanche slopped over from the gulch on our right. We were Just getting to sleep and we heard the infernal crack and boom and roar right above us, and smash, bang, and away down -the gulch It went with kalf the assay office. Took the furnace and our fire and all the roof and Just left ua lying there in the snow with our bed ding. And scared! That's when my hair got up and stood on end and has never laid down peaceably since. Two or three trees away In the mountain had Just cut oft a slice of the slide that filled the gulch and bad turned It over Into the little gulch where our assay office stood. That's what caused our wreck. "Well, we held a council right quick, dug up a lot of matches and some candles, and after we saw what had been done to our house we declared we couldn't slay there any more. We took our blankets and can dls and matchea, an old sheet iron stove and an old canvas tent and moved up to the big mill fifty feet up the side of the moun tain. We climbed to the crushing room, near tho top of the mill. There we put up out tent to keep out the draft all we could. Then we nailed a comforter overhead,, got the stove going and fixed up pretty com- i'ortable. We were sll scared half to dath, for we could hear every little while "lidea going down the mountain, some near by, some so far we could only hear the roar. "Then we got to telling stories. Purdy was an old mule skinner, and he used to tell the most blood-curdling storiea I ever heard, lie wouldn't hurt a Tea, but ac " VP! 1 n4ir. ' CO.NewYork 15th and Douglas Streets. cording to his tales he had killed and skinned at least forty Indians. He was telling us about an Indian tight, and he had Just killed two reds and was skinning them when Kane, who had been trying to see out at the window, fell inside on tha floor and yelled: ' 'My God, boys, here comes one from above!' "Purdy commenced praying tor forgive ness for being so mean to the Indiana, and the rest of us were too scared to speak or move. The slide came down from behind the mill and hit the bottom of the gulch with a roar worse than anything I ever Imagined. It bIM part way up the side of the other mountain, slewed around and started ,down off the creek gulch, tearing out the whole lower half of our mill, boil ers, engines ten of the stamps and the whole blessed works. That old mill danced around like a pasteboard box. "Well, we wouldn't stay there any longer. It was long past midnight, but we put on every dud we could find, tore up comforts and wrapped the strips round us. put on German socks and snowshoes, and set out into the night. "I took an axe in case we should have to cut wood arid build a fire; Kane had a pick, and Price a shovel for fear some of us should get burled, and Purdy carried all the provlalona we had saved a bottle of whisky and two salt crackers. "We couldn't see three Inches, but we knew timber was somewhere up hill, and we knew that old John Lambert's cabin was somewhere In the timber, and It was safe. So we climbed and climbed In that screaming storm and became worse scared every minute as we could hear the aval anches tearing down the mountains all around us. We never did find Lambert's cabin, but we walked till daylight. Then we found we had gone clear over the ridge Into Deer park, miles from home. "W started home then, and we were In mortal terror for fear we'd start a slide ourselves. Every time we had to cross an open space we carried our hearts in our teeth, it seemed to me. There was one slide a full mile long, and with a slope of forty-five degrees anyway. We thought sure that'a where we'd go down. Kane was the best snowshoer, and he went first, We warned him not to use his pole, keen on his shoes, and try to ride on top. Seemed to me he wasn't thirty seconds making that run. Then I tried. That's where I lost my hair. It don't matter, for I know I never could have made It lie down again anyway. But on that ride It was more like a fall it Just blew off. We got home safe, but there were twenty-three men of Sllverton killed that winter In snowslldes, and they're the only things I'm afraid of at all." Denver Post. A Kortaaate Tens. . B. W. Goodloe.

In many ways the Ak-Sar-Ben festival of IMS was the most successful and remark able of all these autumnal festivities. Chief of Police Donahue says the crowds were the largest and best behaved. Assistant General Manager Leussler of the street railway company says his lines carried 1,000,000 persons and sustained not an accident to a single passenger. Colonel George Hall, the veteran conces slonalre on King's Highway, pronounced the entire festival the best of the kind un dertaken In the United States. The hotels, with' greater facilities than ever, did the largest business In their his tories. . "The Ak-Sar-Ben crowds this year were the largest the city ever had," said Chief of Police Donahue, "for Ak-Sar-Ben or the . Transmlsslsslppi, not even excepting McKlnlpy day at the latter In 1898. In ad dition to the carnival visitors Omaha en tertained the League of American Munici palities and tho crowds that came to hear Judge Taft speak." Street Cars' Great Record. Chief Donahue and others consider It remarkable Indeed that the street railway company could have carried 1.000,000 per sons, thousands of them unaccustomed to riding on street cars, without a single ac cident. This matter Is one of general com ment .But the police department Is coming In for much praise for Us work. Most cities under such olrcumstancea employ outside detectives. Chief Donahue and his regular force of-100 men looked after the enormous task and did so with signal success. "The pcpl of Omaha should be proud of their fall festival," said Colonel Hall, owner of the Country Circus on the King's Highway. "I have been In the show busi ness all my life, and I have to say the efforts of the Board of Governors In bring ing In outsiders to the city surpasses any thing I have ever come across. If a show man cannot get the money on the King's Highway It Is his own fault." Colonel Hall was in Omaha with a circus before there was a railroad west of Des Moines. He has been traveling all over the country ever since and says his only re gret Is that he has not been to the Ak-Sar- Ben before and says that If tha Board of Governors wants him another year he will be on hand with an entirely new outfit. Colonel Hall has a large number of cages of wild animals and at present has a big act showing 1n Berlin, Germany, the home of the famous Hagenback. Jack Will Be Here Aaraln. Coming from Coney Island, where he played many weeks at Dreamland, C. F. Hafley ("California Frank") said after completing the week In Omaha with his wild west attractions: . We are so much pleased with the patron age which our show has been given In Omaha that we are going to return next year, and If it Is possible give our patrons twice as much for their money, though our show now Is Just as it was presented at Coney Island. 'Take the week or ten days of Ak-Sar- Ben In Omaha and every day has averaged along with the number who attended at Coney Island and tha week In Omaha, has been much better than the average week In Dreamland. 'The Ak-Snr-Bcn certainly brings the crowds to the city and the crowds spend their money to be entertained. Then we enjoy an Omaha audience hospitable, a they all are In the west, and not frosty. People out here appreciate our western acts even more than in New Tork City, where we are showing them something that not one in a hundred has ever seen and what only one In ten thousand hM seen on the western plains." C. E. DAVIS RENEWS HIS BOND Pan a riarar In Conrt Room Until Bailiff Reproves Him for thn Act. Charles R. Davis, charged with the mur der of Dr. Frededtck Kustin, made his first appearance In the district criminal court room Saturday morning when he gave a bond In renewal cf the one given in police court at the time he waa bound over. The first bond expired .with the closing of the May term of court Saturday night and the new bond was to Insure his appearance at the next term which opens Monday. The amount of the new bond was $10,000, the same as the old one and it was signed by Charles E. Davis as principal and his bro thers, Frederick H. Davis and Latham Davis, as the sureties. Charles Davis, the defendant, while wait ing for the court to reach his case puffed contentedly at a cigar until Bailiff Morgan reproved him for smoking while court was in session. Davis probably will be ar raigned within a few days and required to plead to the charge. DOCTORS MIST21KES Are laid often to be buried tlx feet under ground.
