has been altogether dispensed with.
His condition this morning exhibits
continued improvement and another

Colorado Springs, Col., Aug. ). The
opening of the Denver & Rio Grande
Railroad to Durango, 450 miles from
Denver, in Southwestern Colorado, was
celebrated there to-day. This is the
completion of one of the several exten
sions of that road now being constructed
in this State. The extension just fin
ished is two hjimdrud. miles long, begin
ning at 'Alamosa, on the Rio Grande
River, and terminating in the Animas
Valley. In this valley are immense
coal deposits, one hundred miles wide.
It is also the natural southern outlet for
the rich mining district of San Juan,
which lias been but little developed,
owing to the want of proper transpor
tation facilities. Other extensions will
tap the San Juan on the east and north,
a region covering the area of the State
of Massachusetts, and intersected by
various mountain ranges and traversed
by many rivers. At present 5,000 men
are employed on these extensions, and
about three miles of track are laid
daily.
In April, 1880, 3;!3 miles of road were
operated. On the first of this month
805 miles were in operation, so that dur
ing the last sixteen months 458 miles of
road nave oeen completed. Iliese roads
are being bunt in a mountainous coun
try, and will tap sections of the State
rich in mineral resources. Eight hun
dred and fifty miles more of road are
now under contract and construction
and is being pushed as far as the Utah
border. The extension to Gunnison
City will be completed on Monday next.
The other extensions to mining camps
are being pressed forward to comple
tion before the early snows, and tlio in
crease of miles of road operated and
the great development of the industries
of the State have caused a great in
crease in its earnings. In 1880 the gross
earnings for the seven months ending
July 31st, were $14,300,040; for the same
time in 1881 tliey were 3l.U4ü,4aa.72,
The net earnings for the first six months
in 1880 were $520,218.53, and for the
same time this year, $1,173,830.05.
CoVClO t'OIIMIIIIIfli.
San Francisco, Aug. 5. The princi

Round Valley, burnt . last night. The
fire originated from the overturning ot
a lamp. The loss aggregated over fifty
inousuiui uoiiars, iiiuuuv on uusiness
property. Partly insured.
Hung At Last.
Syracuse, N. Y., Aug. 5. Nathan
Orlando Greenfield was executed this
morning for the murder of his wife,
Alice, at Orwell, Oswego County, Octo
ber 15. The case was remarkable for a
stubborn contest in the courts On
three trials the jury disagreed, and
twice the finding was guilty. There
were three death sentences and five
stays and reprieves on the sixth. To
day the formal execution took place,
five years and nine months after the
crime was committed. After so many
escapes from the gallows, Greenfield
was confident he would not be hanged,
and gave up the hope of commutation
only tinder the gallows.
The execution took place in the jail
in the presence of twoliundred persons,
official witnesses and press representa
tives. The prisoner was cool and un
concerned. Being asked if he had any
thing to say, he replied, "nothing."
The trap sprung at 11 o'clock. Ascene
took placo just before the execution.
The prisoner's brother insisted on
standing by him to the last, declaring
him iniwcent. This the Sherift' refused
to allow, as unlawful.
Greenfield had an affecting interview
with his brother and cousin this morn
ing, and assured them that he was inno
cent and ready to die. The chaplain
implored him to confess. He protested
innocence, and fervently prayed for
mercy upon himself and his enemies,
who perjured themselves on his trials.
He went calmly and unfalteringly to
the scaffold. The Sheriff asked if he
had any confession to make, and he
said: "I have none. As Christ is good,
it is true that I am innocent!"
George Gorlinni's DcIiiNion.
New York, Aug. 5. The Tribune
thinks George C. Gorham is still labor
ing under a delusion. He is continuiog
as a candidate of the Republican Sena
tors for Secretary of the Senate. The
Washington newspaper of which he is
supposed to be editor spoke of him a
day or two ago as "The present candi
date for the position," and adds that
his election was only deferred through
the deadlock which characterized the
extra session of the Senate last Spring.
If Gorham is anything except a consci
entious adventurer, which may perhaps
be doubted, he is an anti-aministration
man. That of itself ought to and no
doubt will settle the business. We ob
serve in Republican newspapers a mild
but determined! objection to Gorham' s
attempt to load himselt again upon the
party.

THEKE WERE TWO OF 'EM.
New York, Au2. 5. The Sun says:
Rev. Dr. Stephen II. Tyng and Rev.
Jno. O. Bache, his assistant in the
Church of Holy Trinity, went from the
ministry into the life insurance busi
ness. 1 yng is now resident director m
Paris, ot the equitable, and Bache is
having an office at No. 83 Liberty
street.
A CO-l'AKTNEl'SIIir.
Tyng and Bache have also formed a
partnership of their own under the title
of John O. Bache & Co. When Tyng
went to l aris, June 1st, lie lett with
Bache a young man, R. P. Cooper, as
clerk.
THEIU NICE YOUNG MAN.
Cooper is 28 years of asre, and has ex
tremely pleasing address. His first
venture was to Dorrow thirty dollars
ostensibly to attend his mother's fune
ral, but really to go on a lark to Coney
island. Cooper had been given the
keys to Tyng's apartments in Florence
Flats, Fourth avenue, He would occa
sionally open and air them. He did
more. He made them a delightful
place for the entertainment of his
friends, whom he entertained in a
sumptous manner among the doctor's
beautiful household goods. Among a
variety of similar adventures the young
man was dismissed. He has not yet
been arrested.
The .null Bag ltaeket.
New York, Aug. 5. The Times, not
ing certain comments of the Canada
postollice authorities on the mail bag
controversy, says: They appear to
mean that an artificial scarcity of mail
bags in the United States was created
for the benefit of certain favorite con
tractors, and that employes of our post
offices were only too ready to encour
age their needy brethren on the other
side of the border in using property
which does not belong to them. There
seems to be room here for further in
vestigation. Peoria PicklnxN.

Convict' Break for Liberty.
San Francisco, Aug. Ü. -A Falsom
dispatch says: Yesterday live convicts
at the branch prison, named George
Lupton, George Walker, Bob Durken,
John Cooney and James Geordon'made
a break for liberty. They knocked
down the guard and ran for the river,
The officers and guards pursued them,
Durkin was wounded in the leg and
captured; Walker was shot dead; Coon

Prohibition Prohibited.
Raleigh, Aug. 5. Seventeen counties
give a majority of 21,748 against prohi
bition. The other counties will proba
bly make it 00,000 to 70,000. The whites
are divided and the negroes are solidly
opposed to tno raoauure.

OBSTRUCTIONISTS.
London, Aug. 5. In view of the
avowed determination of a few Parnell
ites to obstruct the business of the Com
mons, the views of the opposition have
been ascertained in regard to the ur
gency for supply. The result of the in
quiry encouraged the government to
believe if this step is necessary the op
position will cordially co-operate.
QUESTION OF RELEASING PUISONEKS.
It is believed the question of releas
ing some of the priSonersin Kilmanham
jail will be deliberated upon at an early
cabinet council.
COMMISSION OF INQUIUY.
It is stated that a deputation of prom
inent conservatives is about to go to
Ireland to inquire into and report upon
the relative condition of laborers living
respectively under and working, for
resident and non-resident landlords and
farmers. The object of the deputation
is to form a basis of its report for legis
lation upon the labor question.
A general strike.
Cork, Aug. 5. The laborers strike
everywhere, extending to Queenstown,
Mallow and the different centres of la
bor. All laboring men joined the move
ment. The strike is a general agita
tion for increase of wages. Employers
are stubborn.
BUAULAUGH.
London, Aug. 5. Bradlaugh did not
appear at Westminster to-day. lie ap
peared at Bowstreet police court and
presented information upon which he
demanded a summons against the po
lice for assault, in which demand he
simply alleged that an assault had been
committed on him. The magistrate
said this was insufticient, that Brad
laugh appeared to have invited assault,
that he should have refused the sum
mons if all the facts were before him.
and certainly should on what appeared
in the information. Bradlaugh intends
to proceed further.
l'A KNELL l'ELTS 'EM.
In the commons last night, on going
into committee on supply, Parnell
Lvmirrlit nnrlíir ruvinw tVin unuiinri cirin ff
O' Kelly, Homeruler, some weeks ago
tor characterizing the statement ot iot
tenham, conservative, as lying and ca
lumnious. Parnell argued that the
standing under which O Kelly had been
suspended was intended only to check
the persistent obstruction and not to
punish the hasty use of language, and
he blamed the speaker for not giving
him an opportunity ot withdrawing the
laneruaee he used on the nrst instant.
when lie was suspended by a vote of the
House for persisting, in spite of the
speaker's ruling, in raising the question
ot Irish political prisoners.
GLADSTONE ANSWERS.
Gladstone commented warmly on the
liberty assumed by Parnell of appealing
to the rules of the House one night and
insulting them the next, and severely
censured him for introducing the sub
jeet at a time when it was impossible
for the House to pronounce judgment,
Considering that O' Kelly had used the
words immediately after O'Connor had
been called to order for using the word
"mendacious," he thought the charge
against the speaker entirely tailed.
THE U. S. WILL l'ROSECUTE THE MAKERS
OF INFERNAL MACHINES.
In the Commons to-day the Home
Secretary read a dispatch from the
United States to Minister Lowell in
forming Earl Granville that he had
wired Secretary Blaine on the 20th July
an account of a convarsation he had
with Tenternen, Under Foreign Secre
tary, inspecting the infernal machines
at Liverpool, and to which he had re
ceived a reply from islaine stating that
the .National, otate and municipal an
thorities are strenuously endeavoring to
iiscover the authors ot the plot in which
he had reason to believe very few were
enirasred. and that no pains will be
spared in discovering and prosecuting
them.

.YlAt'key'H Start.
I remember an old friend of mine, a
40-er, once telling me about the Mack-
eys, and how they got their start in life;
which led to such great results. Mack
ey used to keep a small saloon, and
dealt with the commonest kind of cus
tom, and my friend would frequently
see Mackey s wife about the place. She
was very plainly dressed in those days,
a common gingham was good enough;
and as for diamonds: why, you might
as well of talked of buying the moon in
those days, and it was sometimes hard
ines to make both ends meet. But the
mining excitement came, and Mackey
was lucky enough to be able to make
a little venture with l'lood, (J linen,
and some others, who afterward struck
t rich. He is now worth, thev saw
$30,000,000 to $40,000,000, and his wife,
at a recent entertainment abroad, liter-
lily blazed with diamonds. I sunuose
when she comes here she will lead the
fashion in New York society. Some
times, in the pauses of all t his extrava
gant frivolity, however, she no doubt
hnds a moment or two to think of the
time when, in her simple gingham, she
used to help her husband serve the
customers at the little bar in the far
west.
Respiration Afl'eeted by Altitude.
M. Marcet, whose experiments with
reference to respiration on the Alps
are well known, has made similar ob
servations at various altitudes on the
,'eak of Tenerme respectively 7.000.
10,700 and 12,200 feet above the level bf
the sea. Among the results noted, it
appeared that the carbonic acid expir
ed is, under all circumstances, propor
tional to the weight of the body, the
amount being greatest during the first
or second hour after eating, then grad
ually diminishing; the amount of car
bonic acid expired was greater at Ten
eriffe than on the Alps, the increase in
the latter case being probably due to
reduced temperature in the other
case, however, 17 per cent, more car
bonic acid was expired at the sea level
than on the Peak of Teneriffe, this be
ing due to increased perspiration at the
nigner aniiuues; ine volume oi air ex
pired per minute, and also the number
of respirations, decreased at the higher
elevation.
