Dear, on your grave, in my heart,
Grow flowers you planted when living,
Memories that cannot depart,
Faith in life's holier part,
Love, all of your giving ;
And Hope, climbing higher, is warer
To reach you as life grows purer,

miles west of Leadville, Ool., has for a |
long time been overrun with desperate |
characters, who kept it in a perpetual |
state of turmoil, Often several of |
these would band together and virtu- |
ally take possession of the camp, shoot- |
ing men down in the streets and clos- |
ing stores, blocking business for several |
hours. Shortly after dark one Saturday |
night recently, Patton und Malloy, two |
desperadoes, having the reputation of
killing a number of men, becoming in-
toxicated, started up the street firing
revolvers promiscuously, General in-
dignation ensued, and the people
turned out en masse and pursued the
desperadoes, who were finally brought
to bay and literally riddled with bul
lets, They returned the fire of the
mob but without effect. A little later
a vigilance committee was formed for
the purpore of hanging three or four
of the worst blackiegs, but that clases
