There seems To be misunder-
standing in regard to the last
semi-annual report as to d sburse-
ments, many persons have the
idea that the amount Of County
warrants paid to certain officers
have been earned during the last
six months, when as a matter Of
fact tho warrants In question have
been outstanding for from twelve
to eighteen months, and have
becn called in and paid by the
Treasurer sincc the lnst report

A SPLENDID SHOWING.

Boulder Building and Loan Association
N Holds Ninth Annual NJ esttng,
7 The ninth annual meeting of the Boul
der building and loan association was
held in the district court room last night.
The report of secretary l. M. DeLong
was the principal business OF the meet
ing, and was received with considerable
interest by the members assembled.
The total receipts for the year includ
ng the s5.os3 o5 balance from 1897 were
s58 6sI8o The cash on hand after the
disbursements for 1893 is 81 1871. The
total resources are given as SI45.784.75.
The report says:
Reckoning by simple interest the net
rate OF profit is about I3 per cent for the
eighth series and over loH for the first
series reckoning bv compound interest
the rate is uniform for all series, being
little short of II per cent. Since the re-
port last year 20 homes have been built
or cleared of mortgage"
The report also shows that out of 822
shares of the first series originally issued
but 2o6 are still outstanding and that the
value of these shares in December was
sl87 %. 1t is probable that the date fol-
maturing will be in April, mixing the
run of the first series little over nine
years.

changes and was as follows:

A FAVORABLE REPORT.
Bouidsr's City Park siii Recommended by
COMMITTEE on Lands

bouidor's Ctty PARK Bfil Recommended Dy
COMMITTEE on Lands.
Washington, D. e.. February 1.-The
committee on public lands, which con.
sldered Representative Shafroth's bill
granting to the city of Boulder, Colo,
about 1900 acres of land for park pur.
poses and for preserving the native trees
on the lands, ordered favorable report
on the measure, recommending but one
amendment. This is to the effect that
the city's title to the land shall be subject
to all valid entries made prior to the
passage of the bill and is intended TO
cover the case of one man now settled
upon I6o acres of the land in question,
and having full title thereto. Mr.. Shaf-
roth was directed to make the report to
the house and insert new section in
SAID bill to read as follows:
"That said lands shall be forfeited to
the United States If within three years
from the passage thereof the said city Of
Boulder has not begun to use th= same
for the purposes granted. or if at any
time said city shall for period of three
years cease to use the same for such
purposes"
The committee states THAT the pro
posed bill grants to the city of Boulder a
tract of land consisting of 1900 acres to
be used by that city for park purposes
and for the preservation of the native
trees on the same.
"The land consists of precipitous
mountains, mostly all rock, and is totally
unfit for agricultural purposes. The
fact that this land is located close to the
city of Boulder and has never been To-
Gated upon for homestead. pre- emp,ion
or mineral purposes, shows that it is of
no commercial value whatever. The
land is mostly barren, having lew trees
on the same, most OF which are pine,
This land can be utilized for park pur.
poses by constructing roadways through
the same, thus making fine scenic drives.
Appended to the report is letter of
the commissioner of the land Office fav-
oring the passage of this bill.
