We received a letter from Kd-

up in the mountains of Colorado,
ordering us to send The News.
Kdward and Mrs. Stevens are at
Kstes Park. Colo., for the sum-
mer. He says his summer cot-
tage is situated on the banks of
a Mowing stream, and of course
it abounds with bass and trout.
We do not think it is right to
tantalize a fellow with a picture
like that: but. anyhow. Iluhkird
