MORE OF THE DENVER BREED. 



In less than 4 hours 220 trout were landed, 

 almost an average of one a minute for these 3 

 men, I, N. Rogers and Julius Marx of Denver 

 and George W. Pingree, a Wyoming ranchman 

 and former resident of Denver. 



One a minute for 3 men, or an average of one 

 every 3 minutes, for each man!

MR. PINGREE, 

 (DENVER.)

"I never saw fishing so fine anywhere," said 

 Mr. Marx. "We had to move but little, and as 

 fast as we could cast, the fish took the flies. The 

 fish were 6 to 14 inches long. We ate 12 to 15 

 fish at each meal for several davs." — Denver Post. 



To my inquiry regarding the truth of this 

 report, Julius Marx replied : 



I enclose you a photo of our party and 

 one of our catches. We were fishing on the 

 Little Laramie. Pingree is the old gentle- 

 man, I. N. Rogers is in the middle and I 

 have a fish basket attached to my person. 

 Julius Marx, Denver, Col. 



Denver has long enjoyed the distinction 

 of harboring more game and fish hogs than 

 any other town or city in the United States. 

 It is a mystery how any decent sportsman 

 can continue to live in such an atmosphere. 

 If the test which was applied to old Sodom 

 should be put against Denver, and "clean 

 sportsmen" substituted for "honest men," 

 I fear Denver would go up in smoke as the 

 old town did. Marx's number in the corrall 

 is 1046, George W. Pingree's is 1047, and 

 I. M. Rogers' is 1048. — Editor. 



Mrs. Benham — Do you think a Mormon 

 who has 10 wives can be really happy? 



Benham — Well, he has 10 chances to my 

 one. — Town Topics. 



LOCOED LIMERICKS. 



MELVIN L. MILNER. 



Once a game hog. a trunk filled with game, 

 And attempted to market that same ; 



But he got in a mess, 



For the great L. A. S. 

 Soon put this old rooter to shame. 



For their wardens were watching for him, 

 And they hustled him off with a vim; 



Behind bars made him dine. 



Also cough up a fine — 

 Now this game hog is feeling quite slim. 



Said a scornful young lady from Me., 

 "Them novels all give me a pe. 



I simply can't stand 



The stuff by Miss Grand— 

 And don't you dare mention Hall Ce."

"Childhood's hours are the happiest times 

 of one's life !" sighed the disappointed man. 



"Oh, I don't know !" chirped his com- 

 panion. "I don't see but that I can watch 

 a ball game about as well as I could 40 

 years ago !" — Detroit Free Press. 



He — Like all young men, I have my 

 faults. 



She — Yes, Mr. Goodleigh, but they are 

 so insignificant that no self-respecting 

 girl would feel justified in marrying you 

 to reform you. — Town Topics.
