CHAT ABOUT PUBLIC PEOPLE.

Some people in Pennsylvania have thought that
c. L. Magee favors ex-President Harrison as the
best possible candidate to name next year MI
Magee the prime mover In the recent reVoi'
against Senator Quay in the Keystone state ne
Is shrewd politician, and his support Is vaIua1 n
fight against Senator Quay because he knew tnat
the Senator not friendly to General Harris1hn,
should control the delegates. When Mr.. Magees
right hand man was asked who Mr. Mageev SsS
asked II II Harrison. he said; III Mr.. Masee
asked that nc would laugh.
Some OF the ms and outs OF politics In the Key
stone State are forging to the front There - no"
no doubt that Mr.. Magee and other Repupncah
politicians from Pennsylvania who supported mar
rson in 1892 against Mr.. Quay's wishes. and prac-
tlcaly forced his nomination. are no longer for
the ex-Presdent. Mckinley Is said TO be thei
choice and the Ohio statesman Will receive from
them what votes Senator Quay cannot hoid OF
control This was asserted by one OF the NC
Kinley boomers who was in the city yesterua!

And here again the rumors about John Wana-
maker and Senator Don Camerons place come TO
the front Once Mr. Magee and other politicians
in Pennsylvania supported the ex-President NOW

Harrison or nearly so. The place In the United

retirement OF Senator Cameron is an aiiurlhg one

mile below and five to eight miles from
you. YOU will see the tops of a number
of round, grass-covered mountains,
spotted with villages and flecked With
| prospect holes.
The railways have been open less
! than six months, but even now the trip
| to Cripple Greek, up one road and
down the other, is taken by many of
the tourists who visit the mountains.
Both lines are narrow gauge and about
as crooked as they could be built.
Looking back from the rear end of d
Florence & Cripple Creek train you
see the track lying among the hills be-
low, curved and cOiled, Topped and left
there like a garden hose (which child
rem have been playing with. The
scenery along the line of this new road
is really remarka BILE, only people who
go to Cripple Creek have their minds
on something more enticing than
scenery.
A Rich Spot Narrowly Missed.
About a dozen years ago two men
sailed claim at the foot of Mount
Pisgah and there was a great excite
ment in the country. The LeadVille eX-
citement was cooling down. Silver
Cliff, Ruby and the GunnisOn had dis
appointed the world. In fact, the
country was greatly in need of an ex-
Pisgah came to the front very rapidly.
An enterprising assayer packed an out
fit in from Leadville and spoiled the
boom" There was nothing there.
Even the two young men who had fur
nished the salt were not there. They
left just before the committee came
round with the rope. If they had
sailed just about a mile farther east
the wonderful camp of Cripple Greek
would be twelve years old now, and the
two young men would be lodging re-
porters instead Of the police.
No End to the Finds.
Since the completion of the railroads
mines are being worked at a profit
that were unable to ship at all be-
fore. There are today no less than 100
claims that can ship ore and There
seems to be no end to the finds. 1 saw
one hill, or rather a mountain, that
was untouched a year ago and now it
resembles a clover field where pigs
have been roofing. The entire camp or
district has today, as nearly as can be
estimated. about 10000 people Near
the top of one of the hills is the city
of Altman, where Governor Waite had
his war. 1t is the highest incorporated
city in the world. The newsboy told
me so. The camp is a gold camp, and
the rate on low grade ore to Florence is
81 a ton. The railroad was built dur
ing the panic, but it is paying a divi-
dend to the stockholders. President
Johnson told me that.
The new cyanide mills at Florence
are able to treat ore at a profit. that

by wire. eff it's a hundred thousand
and 1 want it 1 can have ii. can't I?''
He got the car and the ladies got
their picnic.
This man was a carpenter, and it is
related of him that three years ago he
walked from Colorado Springs to the
rev camp a distance of thirty miles,
to save the 81 car and stage fare. He
has made his own place in this world
and seems perfectly capable of taking
care of himself.
1t is hard to say what the Indepen-
| dence mine is worth. An English eX-
pert made an examination of the
property few weeks ago and gave it
as his opinion that there was 81, 900, 600
in sight. If Stratton had an offer of
$1O,O00,0O0 cash for the claim today he
would probably refuse it. Why should
he sell? AS long as he can take out a
million year, net, he can live very
comfortably.
The mines of Cripple Creek are not
located on veins; they don't care any
thing about veins there. What they
want is an ore chute. or blowout"
as it is sometimes called. There are
number of 'blow-outs" in a mine
like the independence.
Mr.. STATIONS team was running
away in Colorado Springs not long ago.
The carriage behind them held some
women and children. A young man got
hold of the lines and succeeded in max
ing a remarkably difficult turn at a
street corner without spilling any of
the passengers, and finally stopped the
team. He got a thousand dollars for
that. If the same schedule were in
force in Denver, a man ought to make
$4,000 a day stopping teams at the
crossing of Seventeenth and Curtis
streets. The poor horses and women
are so nervous in that rare atmos-
phere that they are liable to break
and run at any moment.

only man of my acquaintance who is
just now walking the floor trying to
reduce his income and keep it under
500, 900 a month. This is certainly a
pathetic case, and the strangest thing
about it is that it's true. Last month
he made nearly $780, 900, and it fright
ened him. He prefers to have it come
slower and last longer. I was told that
his head was turned; that he would
tear up your card and would not talk.
1 sent my card up and asked him to
select weapons, a time and place, as l
intended to interview him

I am unable to see you. When this

it's hotter than Halifax, am trying to

most eXacting business are Harry Mer-
Ram and JEFF Callan. Both are rapid in
handling money TO a degree that al
most passes belief. It is a fact that
has been demonstrated over and over
again that Callan, a slim, sandy haired
young fellow, can sell tickets single
handed faster than the four men at the
entrance can receive them. Merriam
is almost equally rapid with the tickets
and has rare faculty of detecting
bad money, no matter how rapidly the
bills and coins are pouring in.
Inside of u Circus Ticket Wagon.
The inside of q ticket wagon resem-
bles somewhat an ordinary railroad
ticket office a wide brass-covered
counter, running around the wagon
just inside the circular window,
through which business is transacted
Over the wide window is a case hold
ing 1000 tickets in ALL the rest of the
5000 or 1900 being usually sold from
the offices set up through the town.
On a busy day the entire 1000 tickets
will be sold out in an hour, and have
been sold in 80 minutes. This means
the handling and selling of nearly two
tickets a second. But as there are
fluctuations in the rush. there are
times during the sale when the two
hen are handling and selling tickets
at the rate of three = second. Think
Of selling 90 tickets in so seconds and
perhaps giving change in each in
stance. The noise of the silver on the
brass counter is as if an army of type
writers were at work, there being a
continuous click from the time the
window opens until it closes.
1t is most interesting to sit inside
the wagon and watch the two sellers
taking in their hoard Of money. Be
tween them on the floor stands a large
basket, into which all bills are thrown
as fast as they are received. the bas-
ket being filled to overlooking before
the window is closed. Elves tens and
tWenties are thrown down with as lit
tie attention as ones or twos. and
though they drop outside the basket
on the floor, neither seller pays the
slightest attention to them. and they
often get up at the end Of their work
with two or three hundred dollars
trampled under foot. All gold pieces
received are also thrown into the bas-
ket. On the counter between the men
is a square box for dimes and nickels.
while each piles up beside him the
silver dollars halves and quarters re-
ceived and makes all change in sill
yer. If a man tenders a twenty-dollar
bill he will receive back nineteen sill
yer dollars and one half dollar
Buyers Who Forget Their Change.
Some. people show great suspicion as
they appear at the window and refuse
to give up their money Until the ticket
has been placed in their hands. the
idea being firmly implanted in their
