This stern resolution so oft repeated in the past came to us— Will and my self—as we started one morning with canes in hand from Manitau. The distance was 12 miles, of which over one mile and a half was up in the air. * Busted! The journey contemplated for the day was 24 miles. Wa oxpected promptly to march up hill and then march back again in time for supper. , Othors had done as much, and why not wel True, I weigh over 200 and am crossing the half century line, and Will has been sick all the spring and summer, but then the job muet be done. Forty- three persons went up the day before on horseback, and we propose to make it a foot. Reader, you who have lived all your days on level ground, you think it isn’t much to walk 24 miles in a day; well, you can do it if you don’t have to stop to climb a ladder a mile and a half high, and then climb back again Well, that was just the rub—all but the ladder. About a mile out we pass the famous Ute Iron Spring, and take a drink of its powerful waters and then pass on. Our path begins to go up, up, up! Will it never stop! Yes, on the summit of the peak and not before. We follow a roaring mountain torrent and the view is We are off at 6 o'clock. grand. Sometimes the walls close in |} like canons, and you go through a deep gorge. Here massive rocks have tumbled into the stream and the waters tear around and under them. The mountain sides are covered with evergreens. The crust of gog and magog lift their eranite helmits high the air, but under the exhiliaration of the mountain air we pass on into new wonders. Here are sheltered falls. A mighty rock has fallen from the mountain's brow into the stream and the water dashes over it foaming with rage. Above there is cne cascade after another and by the furious fall of water you have some idea of your steep mscent. Now you tollow the narrow path winding ~ up around the mountain side and again we follow the stream. At 8 o'clock we reach a log house called the “half-way house.” We inquire how far it is to the top of the peak! ‘Eight miles,” and how far to town? “Four miles,” but we thought this was half way house. *‘No, only a third of the way:” that begun to make us look solemn. We had put in our best time, and had been two hours in com- ing tour miles. Just then two men with & drove of donkeys fell into the trail, and they told us to strap our baggage on them, Weo did so and helped drive them, but it was a help, and with two canes each we plodded on in good time. These men had a contract for supplying the signal sta tion with wood st §20 per cord. 1t'sull right! They may have a dollar a stick, for all T care. The patient little don. koy, how he toils o, An 1ron wood- ruck is fastened to his pack sac and he tukes nearly an cighth of a cord to a load, aud I found cven then ho was more of a success on a climb than we were, After going a couple of miles wo resume our baggage and plod on. Now the path is more and more abrupt, doubling back and forth on the mountain nide, Here we are in the burnt district —thousand of acres a tangled and wild desolation. Now we pass immense tields of clean granite, We are nearing timber line, where the trees close their struggle with the eternal frosts, But the air is certainly lighter and as you go on even ai a moderate pace, your heart thumps like a sledge hammer against your side —poor thing it wants to get out of that and go back—you can’t blame it. Now your breath comes troubled and labored, you fairly pout. There is not breath cnough to go round, and to add to your discomfort you are getting tired—never so tired before. Keep your feet turned up to au angle of 40 degrecs and it is too much, I found I could sit down easi- er than ever before, my feet and how they ached, and my poor calves how I pitied them, Now Willisa young man of a good deal of decision, and when he makes up his mind you cau't budge him, *‘He said this is played, T don't go sny further,” and really the boy hed my sympathy. We are now at the head of the stream, one of tho highest there is, we are over 11,000 feot above sea level, nearly two miles high, A mountain guido ap- posr leading a company on hurscback, We ask him huw much further it is, “three miles,” well how much higher, 43,000 frul." Weo take our lunch by the spring, how cold the water is, we canuot drink enough to quench our raging thirst. Now we are joined by two men returning, They wentup the day befors and were caught in & thundcr-storm right whero we were, uw described 10 ag awfully grand. They were in the midst of the artillery S sky aud great balls of tire rolled frow cloud to cioud and a dead tree not far off was shivered. Just then massive clouds rolled down upon us from above and the rain began to fall, and the men in alarm hustened downward, One of them had been very sick all night., He foolishly took *|his whisky bottle with him and took his pay forit. Up in theso high alti- tudes the air is intoxicating enough, We now held a council of war, Will could go no further, He had a blind- ing headache. 1 wanted to go on and started, but my feet and legs “struck” then and there, where they (were most needed, Never was an iron manufactory treated worse, It was the most downright rebellion I ever saw, It was a case of obstinate refusal to go another rod of up-hill grade. Then there came that melan choly thought which™overwhelmed so many men twenty years ago, “Busten!” 1t was a melancholy fact. 1 could not get around it or above it. KFurther 1 could not go. My rebellious ankles were becoming rigid with weariness, and though I argued and reasoned and thought of what others had done, and I ought to do, it was all of no use. Just then a wintry chill invaded our bones. It was like an Arclic blast, We shivered and our teeth chattered. Again I tried to go forward, Jbut my feet were as obstinate as ever. [ never saw a worse rebellion; I was disgusted, Denouncing one foot as Jeff Davis, and the other as Arabi Pasha, I started back. I had not gone far when I found it easy to rest, even on the down grade. Presently the cln uds pnrn-d and a glorious ocean of sunhght flooded monntain and plan, 1 looked as far castward as the vision could go, and saw afar off the smoke of railroad trains on the distant plains, and far, far away 1 could see our own prarie state robed in green, and flooded with the light. Well, such a vision was worth the effort. The mountain lake clear and cold, the bald peaks, the pitting crags, the roar cof torrents, the stately spruce, the rush and roar of caturacts, and that cold, cold spring, issuing from the very mountains brow, all go to form a picture not to b for: gotten, It was hard to give up, but we coneoled ourselves with the thought that wo would have beon drenched with rain and eleet, for it snows often every day on the summit, We could not have endured the piere- ing cold, and once there we could have seen nothing on account of the clouds, Tired as we were, wo found O\IAHA THU I\\DAY SEPTEMSER | DOCTOR WHITTIER, 617 St. Charles St, ST LOUIS, Mo A RE Sent of CHNORIC BLOOD Diceases than ans other ph wician i1 8 sont by mail or express everywhere.

At 8 o'cleck Mr, Stephens arrived with his friends of the executive com- mittee and other gentlemen. They entered the house by the rear en- trance of the stage, and unobserved by the audience. While Mr. Steph. ens was in one of the wings preparing to make his appearance, a portion of the audience caught sight of the roller chair and began cheering. The audi- ence qckly guessed what the cheer- ing was occasioned by and at onco took it up. The house rang with cheers. Having been adjusted and sottled down in his roller chair, Mr. Stephens whesled around and rolled himself out upon the stage amid the most uproarous applovse and enthusi asm. He wae followed by the mem- bers of the exccutive committee and other leading democrats, who took chairs that had been placed for them on the stage, Mr. Stephens continued to roll his chair out until he had passed across a little more than half the atage when he wheeled around, and facing the audience went a st two forward and ecotched the w of his roi chair against two-inch plank that had been placed across the stozo near t rtlights to keop the chair 1 poritic s the stage floor slants toward the audienco Given Away.
