A ROYAL PALACE
Some of the Wonders of One of the Resi-
dences Of the Gar,

oiAte VI tHe ohucIS oI oue Oh VnP ftFHl'
dences Of the Gar.
TsarkOe Selo is one of the resi-.
dences of the crown. 1t is 40 min
utes by rail from st. Petersburg and
is one of the places often visited by
tourists in Russia.
Near the principal entrance of the
grounds leading to the palace stand
two small towers, with carvings of
Egyptian figures and hieroglyphics.
The palace was built in 1744 and en-
bellished by Catharine II, when all
the ornaments in front-the vases,
statues, capitals and pedestals of
the columns, etc. were covered
with gold leaf, the gold amounting
to more than 1000, 900 ducats. None
of the gliding now remains except
on the dome and cupolas of the
church.
The chapel within communicates
through the gallery, which is used
by the imperial family, with the
apartments of the latter. The room
is large, fitted up in dark wood and
gilded, the ceiling being entirely
covered with gold. There are fine
paintings here. Near the altar hangs
a key of the city of Adrianople.
One Of the most wonderful rooms
in this palace is the famous amber
room, the walls of which are panel
ed with this costly material cut in
different designs. In several places
are groups of figures framed with
large pieces of the same substance.
The arms of Frederick the Great
frequently appear, nodded with the
imperial cipher, the amber having
been presented to him by Catharine.
The lapis lazrli is another re.
markable room, so called from the
demonstrations Of that stone with
which it is ornamented. The walls
are entirely lined with pictures cut
so as to fit into each other without
frames, and the floor is of ebony, in.
laid with large flowers OF mother Of
pearl.
In Catharine's bedchamber the
pillars are of purple glass, and the
walls r adorned with porcelain,
The walls of the banquet room are
lavishly gilded.
The Chinese room is remarkable
for the beauty of the articles it con
tains, while the two bathrooms are
conspicuous for their fine collections
of china vases, which are placed in
circular tiers up to the ceiling in the
upper end of each room.
The private apartments of Alexan.
der / remain exactly as he left them
when he departed for Taganrog.
They consist of his study. a smaller
room and a bedroom beyond, with a
camp bedstead in an alcove.
The grounds of the palace are Is
miles in circumference, kept always
in order by 60C veteran soldiers. In
onecorner of these grounds is a tow
er several stories high, which was
occupied by Alexander III and his
tutor. In another portion are the
baby houses of the grand duchess
and a pond with a fleet of tiny YES.

Solhe of the mine owners have expressed
themselves to the effect that they will
not start up until such time as the min
ers are willing to go back to york and
board where they ''the companies" say
they shall. In answer to that we can
only believe the mines of Lump Gulch
are destined to be closed down for a
long time as the Miners Union are de
termined there shall never be IA company
boarding house IL in connection with
the mines of Lump Gulch.
Respectfully yours,
Geo. M. Barry, Secretary.

tuous system Of compelling the miners

Peoples Party Confab.

The peoples party primary was held
on Monday evening in Miners hall.
Geo. McGibbon called the meeting to
order and after Jos. +. Qnirk was elect
ed secretary the work of selecting dele
gates was begun. 1t is but fair to add
that this primary was well attended
showing the largest crowd yet assembled
for such business. The members seemed
to have but one request, and only one
object in view, namely, securing the
nomination of j. l.. Walker. ST.. for
county commissioner. The delegation
will probably present the claim of Gee.
L. McGibbon for clerk of the court.
But the fight they are prepared to make
it is understood is for Walker. 1t is
even stoutly contended that the delega-
ton will listen to talk of fusion only
upon the ground that Walkers claim is
allowed. The delegation stands:

1t is said that the Democratic gold
bugs are anxious to have Senator Hill
take charge of their forces Mt Chicago.
I'VE wonder where their forces are. It
will take a nan of Hills acute vision
to discover them. But Hill has probably
not forgotten how the ~goldbugs knitted
him when a candidate for governor in
1893. Although he had declared himself
i'll favor of free silver, a gold platform
was thrust under him and in addition
the Democratic gold men voted the Re.
publican ticket. Now he is expected TO
lead the fight for gold. There seems t.,
have been a queer change all around.-.

Will You Sell Your BirthriGht?

THE Republicans will have a cam
paign fund Of $50. 600, 900 to send out
speakers and distribute literature and
organize in every doubtful state" says
the Washington Post. Whence will this
fund come to debauch the people and
fasten the shackels of the gold monopoly
upon them? The usurers and gold gam
blers of London and New York will ad-
vance it. Who will repay it? The very
people whom it buys, for the usurers
will squeeze it out Of them again with

Rather Mixed.

Senator Tillman came to Texas with
his pitchfork. He spoke in Dallas, and
as they had no suitable place to accom-
modate the large audience, they Dor.
rowed the Populist platform. Some of
the Democrats present objected to bor-
rowing and using their neighbor's plat
form, but the senator remarked, ooh,

On Saturday night the democrats of

of delegates to the coming county con.
vention. They found considerable diff
Guilty in securing a quorum. and had not
sufficient members present at any time
to fill the list of delegates and altern-
ates. There was apparently but one
candidate in sight, and an attempt was
made to slate a delegation which would
be solid for that man. But there were
several bitches in the proceedings, and
the delegation as it stands is not all har-
mony. r. G. Vaughan was elected
chairman and D. T. A. Macintosh sec

This delegation is the result of a
dead rank "job." Several leading dem
ocrats refused to attend the primary be
cause of the crowd they knew would
run it. And sure the above combination
is not representative of the broad mind
ed democracy of this cultured city.
The list it is said has evcn been modified

of 20 in the last general election, or of
two and one half votes to each delegate.
