Entered as second clins matter March 0, 1000, at the post office at Walden, Col 1 orado, under Act of Congress of March 2, 1879. i Laboring under the delusion that they i are merely doing as the natives do, the rediculous stunts performed by eastern ( young ladies, who come to such “wild and wooly and wholly uncivilized” sec tions of the country as North Park would make a horse laugh. As a mark of her williuguess to becomo westerniz- ( ed, a young lady, from the east, who is visiting not a thousand miles from here, donned a pair of leather chaps and as sisted in driving a bunch of horses, then wore the chaps to dinner, afterwards commenting to a lady friend that she really felt quite shocked at first over | some of the western customs, but was getting used to them.

It is no more than fair for the ranchmen to meet the government half way in all these questions, but the forestery department has away of putt ing the half way mark right along its front door.
