Among others on the riotous wave of humanity that is now washing toward Deep Creek is Kdward Maduu of the well known Mailen Bros, of Ogden, who feathered their nests during the boom days of that thriving metropolis. He made his appearance this morning with a team and a "grub stake," Charlie Char-lie Ktnery and a plug hat, the latter carried for the purpose of introducing aristocracy and a sthetieism into the country at its start. "J missed tho Leadville boom," said Mr. Maden as he threw the hitch-strap about the gaunt form of a telephone pole aud put a knot iu it that was stubborn stub-born as the rock of ages, "and I've got nobody to blame but myself. I guess I'm in time for tho train this trip, however, how-ever, and if there's anything in I)eep Creek I propose to get my hare of it. Oh. there' a whole troop of tis from Ogdeu. and you needn't be surprised if wo want to capture the cily government at Dug-way. Dug-way. All wc want is a chance, and if we'uro a little ahead of the procession we'll lay out a camp lire that will light them through on the last milo."
