omahas boom !. about over, while Den
I vsr's has Just commenced There are some
very handsome stone buildings here and Z
number of exceptionally eles can't ones Ia
process OF erection. For that reason II
/ seems strange that the postof.ce shoofd be

Denver has Woman's Exchange similar
/ to the one in Grand Rapids. bat Il has 3
restaurant connected with IL which is large
/ liz latronized by al excellent class of people.
1 Zach article on the dill Is either nye or ten
cents aud every thing Is homemade. There
/ i no restaurant or bakery flavor about Ii
and one can make either an elaborate or a
: simple meal as ones appetite requires.
l The bread. cake, pies and iried-cakes are
made by women who wish TO make little
money that way. One woman has furnish
/ ed sixty loayes of bread day 10 the institu-
ton. Denver seems TO be more metropoll-
l tan than Grand Rapids in one re-
spect at least Here it seems 70

have a 6 o'clock dinner. This Is the case
not only in the first-ciass hotels, but also IN
| the private boarding houses.
This is supposed TO be q climate OF CON-
psratiyeiy little severe weather and that
would seem to be indicated by the number
| Of straw hats and bonnets one sees on the
streets. Bat the effect of that is nsutrsiized
| By the great number of seel-skin garments
worn. l know have seen more, genuine,
| handsome seai-skins the few days that
have been here than IN three years in Grand
Rapids.
One thing strikes a stranger on riding
around Denver, and that is the large mum
l Der OF little brick cottages. Some Of them
contain four or five rooms but good
\ many only two or three. They are very cosy
some OF them, and ara convenient fer sm al
/ families. But one from the East misses the
| pretty Queen Anne buildings, which are sc
| common there and so very scarce here. Tbs
brick dwellings cannot we'll be made quit,
/ so picturesque. aud sprinkling OF modern
frame houses would add much TO the beauty
/ Of Denver.
