lieving the daily routine occurred yester-
day at the First Ward school, in the pres.
entation Of handsome silver Ice pitcher
and goblet to Prof. 2. G. Bundy, by the
lady teachers Of that school. Mr.. Bundy's
duties as Principal Of that school end with

courtesy and kindness that has ever
characterized his association with his
teachers during the period OF ten years.
The presentation was made in few well
chosen words by Miss Ida Iveson, the
Principals assistant, and was eloquently
responded to by Professor Bundy, who
said ot all the gifts ever received, this one
touched him most.

ST. LOUIS, June Pa Denver, CoI.,
special says: Justice Miller, OF the Su-
preme Court of the United States, this
morning, on motion OF the Rio Gran de
counsel to execute the mandate Of the
Supreme Court in the Grand Canon case,
went into general review OF the mandate
and stated in plain terms that the priority
Of right OF the Rio Grande Company in
Grand Canon covered only that part
too narrow for two tracks; that be.
fore the Rio Grande Company could be
granted a prior right under the mandate
they must first pay to the Santa Fe Com
pany the cost OF construction OF the road
through that part OF the canon known as
Royal Gorge, and they could not occupy
i until they paid for It. The right OF tie
Santa Fe TO occupy the track jointly with
the Rio Grande Company must afterwards
be settled by the Court. He would not
turn the Santa Fe Company out OF the
canon, but there must be speedy SET
tlement OF these difficulties and by both
parties coming together and settling on
an equitable basis.
