A Bit of Romai.ce in Colorado
The brigand style of some of the
mountaineers is very attractive to the
fancy of sonic of the young ladies of
of the Eastern States, who aro touting
through Colorado or are visiting
there. One bright and pretty girl

lino broncho, a scarlet cloili, and oyer
her handsome dark grecu, gold-buttoned
habit she wore a gold-mouuted
leather belt, to which was attached a
sheathed knife with a guarded hilt,

a l ghtcr .knile that glistened when
she rode. Attired iu this brigandish
habit Khe was happy, aud openly ex

she was iu his way or vexed him, aud

once, as wo all know, but we can not
prove it. He'll be lucky if ho don't

Lynch some bright midnight." The
