That there is however, large element of Gull

from the character of individuals and families

The dwelling houses in Denver are generally
of small size, and are more like. the cottages at

fashion to have any more houseroom than is
absolutely required for the use of the family,
with perhaps spare chamber or two for guests
or to be let as lodgings. In the business streets
the buildings first erected are being replaced
by massive blocks. built usually of brick, but
often of beautiful lava.stone quarried in Col
orado, which ranges in color from delicate
pink to a dark brown.
Here, as elsewhere, business men talk of the
hard times of the past few years, but they have
been easy by comparison with the same period

There is always market for the wool and beef
that are produced on the plains, and mining
goes on in evil as well as in prosperous times.

Bill i'm Equity Against the Vermont ID wis
ion of the Oxdensburg Railroad.

BURLINGTON, Vt, Dec. 1.-THE Mercantile
Trust Company of New York, for itself and all
others in like interest not citizens of Vermont,
has filed bill in equity in the U. S. District
Court Of Vermont against the Lamoille Valley
Railroad Co. and others, which is likely to in
augurate another big Vermont railroad war.
Defendants are the Lamoille Valley, Montpelier
& St. Johnsbury and Essex County Railroad
Companies, Luke P. Poland and A. j. Jewett
Presidents, these roads forming the Vermont
division of the Portland & Ogdensburg rail
road. The bill sets forth that the first mort
gage bondholders were deceived by Poland and
others as to allowing joint mortgage of $780,
600 to be issued which was to have preference
over the first mortgage; that to obtain such
agreement Poland and others represented that
said sum would complete the line, enable them
to resume payments of the interest Immediate
.ly, well knowing the same to be false, and sue
cessfully deceived the first mortgage bondhold-
ers into the belief that said preference bonds
could not be used till provision was made for
the first mortgage interest. The bill further
accuses Poland and Jewett of gross breach of
trust in all branches of the transaction, and
asks for their removal and the appointment of
a receiver.

The American people are shrewd and observant.-
They are not often deceived by sham pretensons;
but when they are, they discover their error. If

would long since have discarded it; but finding that
there was not claim put forth in its behalf that its
curative properties did not justify they Immediately
gave it the preference to every article of its class.
