beautiful view Of snow capped
mountains is visible, and along
the side Of one of these on a
narrow trail, a trainsof burros
and their drivers is slowly as
cending. Gushing from the
side of the mountain is seen a
waterfall, dropping into a lake
out of which at stated intervals ,
the golden haired goddess Of
the mineral world arises. Ske
holds in her hands a nugget of
silver and after displaying her
treasure for few mkiutes,
disappears into the lower re-
gions. The center dome of
the palace is rs feetin diane
ter, while each of the two side
domes are 40 feet. Besides
these two, there are also %
smaller domeS under which
runs a promenade The dec
orationslof these domes and
the ~ supporting pillars are
magnificent. The writer has
visited the ancient and modern
palaces of some of the old coun-
tries of Europe but in none of
these did he find the effect
rnore dazzling. The valuable
Specimens of the Centennial
States leading industry are
deposited in glass cases, which
enclose the base of the pillars,
which are a glittering mass of
gold. Over 10000 speci-
mems of ores from all the diff
ferent mining districts, repre-
senting a value of nearly one
million dollars are arranged in
beautiful order. The differ
ent species of Colorado wild
flowers are painted by an ar
tistic hand in the domes and
in the petals are incandescent
lights, there being nearly
2, 500 altogether, and the
faithful reproduction of the
beauty of these flowers is re-
markable. Before giving your
readers an extract from the
speech of Gov. l.. Routt, a
few lines on the outward ap-
pearance of the building, which
really ought to have preceded
the description of the. interior.
but the writer was kept busy
away from the palace during
the day and your readers will
therefore excuse him for TAX
ing some notes in regard to
that this morning by daylight,
as darkness had set in when
the ball was opened and the
gubernatorial party entered.
The main entrance is in the
center Of the south side and is
shadowed by a large portico
upheld by massive pillars.
For about 20 or IS feet
around the building is colon
made which forms a fine prom
enade. One feature, which
attracts universal attention is
the four corner pillars, which
are capped under the caves
with enormous heavily gilt
globes, marked according to
the topography of the earth,
and when the sun shines on
these globes the effect is daz-
zling and unique.

and Stole Ring

The Two Men Who Were Working . Snake
and Stole a Ring.
This morning before Judge Miller two Young
men were arrsigned on a charge Of stealing a
gold ring from the store of A. Saltzstein. ON
9TH street. Saturday. The names given by the
prisoners were James Hall and Ernest s.
HUMPHREYS, and it was only through a severe
cross-examination by Judge Miller that the true
facts were shown.
The young men presented the appearance Of
countrymen, although the trick played at Mr..
Saltzstein's showed them to be experts at the
business. Hall. whose right name is said TO be
Lavender, claims Roanoke, Va, as his home.
while HUMPHREYS says his home is in Lynch
burg, where his father lives at No. liz Cabell
street.
According to their story they had met each
otner at several points in Virginia. their last
meeting being at Amherst Court House.
Humphries had a large land moccasin snake
anu the TWO men came as far as Alexandria to-
gether and then they came here.
Ihey entered Saltzstelns store and asked to
be shown some rings. The clerk put the rings
on the show case and then Humphries put his
snake there
The snake interested the clerk. but at the
same time he also watched the rings
Hall or Lavender put one of the rings in his
pocket, and after he had left the store com
plant was made to the police.
Precinct Detective Weldon and Officer Iyda
arrested both of them and recovered the ring.
Judge Miller questioned HUMPHREYS as TO
how he captured and charmed the snake and
he pretended that all the knowledge he had he
got from country people in Fairfax county, but
Judge Miller told him that not one countryman
IN i've thousand would do what he had done.
The judge said he would stop their little game
for while and gave them three months each.

Mr.. Alexander Williams, son of Mr. Brooke
B. Williams Of 3043 Gay street, died last Thurs
day at Aiken, sc. His body was sent home and

southern climate would benefit him had gone
to Aiken and engaged in business, where he
had been successful from the start A short
time ago he was struck in the side by a shaft,
but deeming the injury of little consequence
his family was not informed of the accident

of his death.

A SAD PARTING.


The formal change Of pastors at the Catholic
Church here yesterday was one of the most
notable events in the history Of that congrega-
ton. Bishop Vaudeville of Richmond made an
official visitation and at the IL o'clock services
introduced to the congregation Rev. Henry p
Cutler, the new pastor, eulogizing him as
faithful and active priest, who would make an
efficient and Jealous pastor. He regretted the
loss Of Father O'Kanes services, both as pastor
and as q member of the diocesan council
Near the close Of service Father O'Kane maMe
an affecting farewell to the congregation he
had served for eighteen years. He would be
glad indeed. he said, to serve them until the end
of his life and let his bones repose in the GENE
terry where he had solemnized the burial rites
SO many times. He had administered his trust
to the best of his ability and he left the church
in excellent financial condition. There was no
debt except the residue of the $1,000 for the
purchase of Yeates' Garden as a cemetery
Only $4,000 remained due on this purchase and
there was $500 in hand, SO that 81 200 was the
total incumbrance. He thanked the congrega-
ton for their constant support, and begged
them to give the new pastor the same aid and
confidence which they had always given him.
Father O'kane's discourse was the occasion of
many tears. The clergy in the sanctuary wept,
and there were tears and sobs throughout the
church. A congregation meeting will be held
tonight to give collective expression of the
people at Father O'kanes departure and to
welcome the new pastor.
POLITICAL MATTERS.
An effort is being made to induce Mr. James
s. Douglass, a well-known Alexandrian to be-
come an Independents candidate for mayor at
thursdays election. A mass meeting of col
ored republicans will be held tonight at the
colored Odd Fellows Hall. The democratic
committee has directed that all candidates on
their ticket shall pay their assessments to
Treasurer Price today.
Arrangements for the confederate memorial
services at o'clock this evening are COM
pleted, and the program heretofore published
in TIE STAR will be carried out.
The city council will on tomorrow NIGHT fix
the financial policy Of the city for the Coming
fiscal year.
