This Is one OF the best mines In this camp.

The Buckingham Mazeppa troupe from
the Pacific slope are at the Tabor Opera
House. Miss Buckingham was here only
few weeks since and did not make very
good impression. She and her whole gang
had a drunken row the last night they
were in Leadville. II Is expected that
Kate Claxton will be here soon with her
Two Orphans" and John T. Raymond is
also booked for here in the near future.
Leadville's municipal election takes
place week from next Monday, AMI the
Republicans are quite confident OF electins
a Mayor. The Democrats have nominated
j F. Humphrey, the present Mayor, but
there Is a great dislike of him by both
parties, and it is quite possible that the
Republicans will put man in nomination
that can be elected.
John Laube De Lauburfels, an Austrian
who held commission in the L. S. Army
during and since the war, died here last
Tuesday, and yesterday his remains were
forwarded to Burlington, Iowa, TO his son.
Lauburfels was man OF learning and was
very we'll connected In his family relations
In Austria; he was Baron. After the
war and while in command Of body OF
soldiers who were making n raid on the
Apache Indians, his wife and six children
were captured and all were killed except
his wife, who escaped; but the loss oil her
family made her insane and she committed
suicide The Baron then came to Lead
vile and has led dissipated life since. He
was said TO be the best draughtsman in
Colorado. His remains were escorted 10
the depot by every military company in
camp-four companies in all.
Mr.. II. F. Stevens thinks he will go to
Aspen as soon as spring opens, and grow
up with the camp. We hear that Mr.. c.
W. Nelson, who runs on the Erie road
from New York to Bufilo, is expected
soon in Leadyille. There will no doubt be
a rush of ''tender-feet" into this camp be-
fore the lst of June. The advance guard
are already here.
