Heavy Winter to Come at the Mines

There is going to be, according to the old mountaineers, a heavy winter. They base their opinion on the animals, who are making the most extensive preparations for cold they have made in some years, and the miners say that when they make such unusual preparations a hard winter invariably follows. Snow has already fallen several inches deep in the mountains of Colorado and along the headwaters of the Rio Grande, and mining for the present season is practically suspended.—Kingston Shaft.
