TABoR's POVERTY.
Last of the Well Known Colora-
doan's Property Being Swept
Away.

Within the coming week the papers Of
this city will publish notices of the sale
under foreclosure proceedings of sixteen
lots on Thirteenth street, running from
Grant to Sherman avenues, and includ-
ing the old Tabor homestead. The sale
of this property closes the career in the
real estate world of a man who was,
only few years ago, one of the lead
ing property owners of Denver, and one
who has probably done as much for
the advancement of the city as any man
who ever came to Colorado.
Senator Tabor, the builder and formerly
the owner of the Tabor opera house, the
Tabor block and many other properties
as one of Colorado's rich men. A man
who had amassed wealth from the great
natural resources of the state and one
of the prominent business men of Den
yer.
Misfortune overlook him and piece by
piece his property has gradually slipped
away from him, until now the old resi-
the ambition of his life to construct one
of the finest residences of the Queen
City is about to go out of his possession.
Several weeks ago the fine opera house
which bears his name and also the Ia
Dor block were sold to satisfy mortgages
and passed into the possession of Mrs.
Laura D. Smith, the mortgagee. All his
taken from him in satisfaction of debts,
