MEETING OF VETERANS.
Second Annual Reunion Of the Grand Army Of the |
Republic at Colorado Springs, COlo.- The Old |
Veterans Meet once More Around the Campfire. |

MANIToU, COL, Oct. 16, 1884.
To THE EDITOR: Believing that your read
ers would be interested in learning something
West conducts its Reunions, and as it was my
good fortune to have participated with the
comrades of Colorado in their second annual
Reunion at Colorado Springs Col, feel rs
though the comrades throughout the world
should know something about it. Colorado
Springs Post, No. %, had for long time been
preparing for the event, and had secured the
cooperation of its citizens, and / assure you
there was nothing left undone to make the
Reunion complete success i'll every particular.
The city Of Colorado Springs appropriated the
sum OF $500 for paying the expenses of the
Department Reunion, the citizens subscribed
$500 more, and the committee having the mat
ter in charge raised an equal amount through
other sources. The comrades of Colorado
Springs Post furnished an abundant supply of
pitch pine wood for the evening Camp fire.
and such grand evening meeting can better
be imagined than described. The comm ittee
having the matter In charge secured from the
Colorado National Guard the use of 100 wall
tents whice were placed in position in regular
military order; also an abundant supply of good
Oal-StraW, anu as the comrades arrived tneY
were assigned to comfortable quarters. pa
vlion tent was on the ground where regular
army meals were furnished at a nominal cost.
The Posts went into camp on the 9th of Octo-
ber and remained there until the 18th. All who
Joined this Reunion from the Department
Commander, his staff, and their families, down
TO the high private in the rear rank, slept, eat
and had their being in camp. The program in
the camp consisted of parades. reviews, guard
mounting, and Camp fires, and it seemed like
20 years ago TO stand up in line on dress parade
with old comrades who passed through the storm
of battle together
The opening day dawned most auspiciously
and fine weather continued all through the
Encampment. The camp was located on
plateau as level rs billiard table, overlooking
the Monument River and in full view OF the
snow-capped peaks of the everlasting Rockies
and the evening shadow of the celebrated
Pixies Peak. We could sit in camp and enjoy
Summer weather, and look but a few miles to
the west, over the foothills, and behold perpet-
uai winter. The camp was named in honor of
Department Commander Byron l.. Carr, of
Longmont, Colo, and more gentlcmanly, cour-
teOuS c0mrade it is seldom a mans fortune TO
meet, and what is said of him viii apply to
the members of his staff The members of the
several Posts in the Department turned out
well, some coming hundreds of miles. Poudre
Valley Post, No. Is, Of Greeley, Colo, attended
in full force and brought with them one of the
best bands in the State, and, in fact, the band
has few equals in any State. One of the at
fractions of camp was the Chaffee Light Artil-
lery. of Denver, Colo, commanded by Capt.
McBeath, who attended to the firing of morn
ing and evening guns. OLD VET.

BUSINESS AND LABOR.
The latest advices from the ses-island cotton
belt from South Carolina to Florida give I'M
favorable reports of the condition of the fine
crop usually produced there. The pr0tracted
drouth has increased the damage and re-
duced the yield from what it promised six
weeks ago. The large prices of last season
stimulated considerable increase of acreage,
but even with this the crop will be less than
last years. Light rains fell on the 22d, which
was the first in 100 days, but it is felt that it
will bring little Telief.-Rain fell at Danville,
Va, on the ped inst. Though tho tobacco crop
has been housed and the corn is being gather
ed, it will benefit the turnip crop and such of
the land as has been seeded in wheat, as we'll
as some pasture land.-The last rail in the
new line between Norfolk Va, and New York
was laid at Cape Charles on Saturday. The
new route will reduce the time between these
two cities to nine hours.

excitement. Atthe intercession of Gov. Cleve-

THE WAGES OF SIN.
Terrible End Of q Geofgias6irp Adventur.
Gus CaFDeRs


News has reached New York that a woman
whose escapades have ut different times startled
and shocked the good people of three CONT
nents has at last met with a dreadful fate in
Japan. This woman was known to New York
ers 16 or IL years ago as Mrs. John Beecher,
afterward as the Countess Pourtales later to
the Parisians as lady Of fashion, and finally
to the imperial circles 5of Yokohama as the
favOrite of the japanese Prime Minister She
was a daughter of respectable Georgia family
and was brought to this city blooming girl by
her mother just after thesclose of the war. APP
parently the family had saved some means from
the wreck caused by the war, for the mother
and daughter were able to live in good style at
the Aston House.
After awhile they moved to the Fifth Ave-
nue. Hotel, and there the daughter met MIR.
John Beecher, at that time a wealthy member
of q well-known wholesale liquor firm, who
lived at the hotel. 1t was not long before she
became Mrs. Beecher, and the young couple left
the hotel to occupy luxurious home. Mrs.
Beecher soon after her marriage manifested q
most firtatious and hayward disposition, which
finally so compromised her reputation that Mr..
Beecher was forced to seek divorce This in
course of time he procured, and shortly after
ward the community was startled by the an
nouncement that Mrs Beecher had shot at
Lloyd Phoenix as he was ascending the steps

sequently went to Paris, where she had not So
journed long before she became the Countess
Pourtales 1t was said she met the Count on the
steamship in which she sailed from New York.
The Count had been attached to the French
Legation at Washington, and had married q
daughter of Ben Halliday, but had been for
some time widower. The first Countess died on
railroad train while nearing Chicago, whittier
she was journeying.
After their marriage in Paris Count Pourtales
returned to his post in Washington and carried
his bride with him, but the fame of the Count
css's escapades having preceded her the couple
were not well received, and the Count at his
own request was speedily recalled. From Paris
they went to Japan, and there the Countess's
conduct was in essential respects similar to
what it had been as Mrs. Beecher in New York,
and the Count finally abandoned her in dis
gust. Eventually she openly became the mis-
tress of the japanese Prime Minister, and in
course of time attempted to play as free with
him as she had done with her husbands.
But among the other barbarous customs Of
that country is one that Furnishes infdelity
with death, whether the offender be wife or mis-
tress. As the story comes from those distant
shores, one night two masked men entered the
wretched woman's house, seized and bowstrung
her, then put her body into a sack and flung it
into the river. The information is undoubtedly
true, and it has been known for some time to
a number of persons in New York, but it has
not heretofore gained publication.

THE SAFE DEPOSIT.
As the Trail Greek Cave is Named. New
Mineral Developments.
IJF II JIVtI
Commissioner for Idaho.

A small force is now employed tun-
neling on the Safe Deposit Cave mine,
operations having begun on the ore $50
feet below the cave discovery The tun-
mel is now in 20 feet where a 2-foot vein
of quartz is developed, containing kid
MES of grey copper and steel galena
ores. Samples of the former variety re-
turn an assay value of 500 ozs. per ton
and the galena assays over 200 ozs. 1t
is the opinion of Mr.. Pophan, one of
the owners, that the miners will be able
to extract sufficient 200-oz. ore to pay
good wages, and in this event he will
continue as fast as possible the work of
development. 1t will require 200-foot
tunnel to tap the cave and from all APP
pearances the owners are hopeful that
this will be attended with the discovery
of rich mineral deposits. Numerous in
stances have occurred in the Rocky
mountains where such caves have con
tanned large and very valuable mineral
deposits with even less surface indica-
b1oHo, anu the owners OF the SAFE De-
post Cave location are reasonably san
euine. The development of this cave
will be prosecuted vigorously and there
is reason to expect much from its
depths. Beside the famous Mammoth
Cave of Kentucky there is probably
none other in America so wonderful as
this one on Trail creek 1t is at the
least calculation, from the sound of fall
ing bodies, 1000 feet in depth, and very
probably contains large tributary pass
ages.

Warren reports three verticle lodges

Quite an excitement was raised here on
Monday morning last, about half past one or
two o'clock, by the alarm of fire. Fire had
broken out IN coal bin at the gas works, but
no serious damage was done as it was extn-
guished before it got much Roadway. 1t
might have been terrible, as it was within ten
feet of the main oil tank which were filled last
week with about 5000 gallons of oil. Lucki-
" 1t did not reach it. The fire was started by
unslacked lime, which in someway was slack
ed that night. On Tuesday afternoon fire
broke out again, blowing the top Of Of one
small tank and setting fire to the building but
no serious damage done.
The machine shops hero, which have had
such an enormous trade during the summer,
are now scarcely doing anything, on account
of the depression of business. Frick Co.
have reduced their number of workman near
ly one-third; are only working half time in
several departments, the remainder eight
hours day and five days week. The Gel.
ser Co. have put off q great many men, and
now are working five days, eight hours per
day. 1t is the dulest times that have been
known here for number of years. The
American Company are working also on short
time, with less than half their number of hands.
Many people that have been suspended are
leaving town. In spite of the dull times the
town still continues to build up. We expect
a rush in the spring.
The skating rink is now under roof and in
