COLORADO SPRINGS, JUNE 81, 1901.
MIR. AND Mrs. WISSLER,
After so long a time | will write
you a few lines. Six weeks today
since | left home, it hardly seems
possible sometimes, and again it
seems as though it might have been
six years, depends upon the mood
I'm in suppose. Colorado Springs
has changed sc much it doesn't
seem like the same place; it has
almost doubled in population in
the last six years, having about
tw~enty-eight thousand inhabitants
according to the last census. The
greatest change is in the people,
they always seemed to me to be such
a take-it-easy lot but now they rush
around like they do in Denver or
any other city. This is a beautiful
country and a delightful climate,
the shines out very warm some
tlmesbut it is always cool in the
shade and the nights are cool. 1t
seems to be just the place for me. /
ann getting stronger and feeling
better every day, but you will out
weigh me yet, Mr.. Wissler. I hope
to be back ready for school bv the
first of September, if notI shall be
disappointed. / do get so tired of
resting sometimes | can hardly
stand it, then l work a little.
| me Mr.. Walter Copeland, from
Extra, n day last week, on my way
to dinner and l don't believe / was
ever so glad to see anyone in my
life. One learns how to appreciate
"home folks when away off where
every person you meet is a stranger
especially when you are away be-
cause you are obliged. to be, and
knoH you must stay. | hope more
Extra people will come; it would be
such a nice trip for Mr.. and Mrs.
Wissler. l am at Mrs. Hobbs, out
in the suburbs, three miles from
Cheyenne, the nearest mountain,
and six miles from the footof Pixies
Peak. l wish you might see SOM
ofthe sunsets. never saw anything
equal to the one last night, the sky
was pink almost to the eastern hori-
zon, then it changed to red. If you
could put it on canvass, Mrs. Wiss-
Ter, your fame and fortune would be
secure. The sun goes behind the
mountains about seven o'clock or a
little after. | have been out to Mani
tou nearly all the afternoon; went
out to Iron Springs and drank some
of the iron water, but don't like it a
bit. | haven't done any mountain
climbing or sightseeing, have put
in my time getting we'll; will do the
other later. [ live out ofdoors most
~, have been riding my wheel some
lately but the air is so light it is
hard to breathe fast enough on the
upgrade, there is no level here. l
haven't been homesick once, but
oh, won'tI be glad to get back home
again. Oh, yes, | almost forgot, you
had a wedding, last week, d%idn'tyou?
Ha, ha! Your patience must be tired
by this time so | will bring this to a
close. Sincerely your friend,

Without a moments warming
another soul has passed from the
shores of time to the great beyond.
All day last Tuesday, June 25, 1901,
Mrs. Augusta Schlotfelt, a sister of
Mr.. Charley Jacobson and the
Mesdames John Schlater, Henry
Foss and George Myers, of Audu-
bon township, was at that gentle
mans home assisting in doingsome
sewing forthe family and after sup
per started for her home in the best
OF spirits and apparently as we'll as
usual, but some time in the night
a messenger of the grim reaper
came and closed her eyes to the
scenes OF this earth forever without
even the consolation of a soul near
her to soothe her during her dying,
hour or bid her a last goodbye, and
1T was not until about nine O'Clock
Wednesday morning that he broth
er and other relatives We're aware
that she was dead. The lady was
about fifty-one years of age at the
time OF her death and had been
afflicted by heart disease which,
more than likely, a the cause of
her sudden demise. She was the
mother of six children, three girls
and three boys, and one of her
daughters, Miss Mamie, about thir-
teen years of age, and a younger
brother, Adolf, were in the house at
the the time of their mothers death
but not in the same ROOM. Two of
the children are in Rock Island, uli-
nois, one daughter was at Adair
learning the dressmaking business,
and n boy is working for Fred
Wahlert. The funeral will proba-
bly, be held on Friday and the body
laid to rest i'll the Schwennecker
Cemetery, close by the old home.

NASH AND NIPPERT HEAD TICKET
Ohio Republican Convention Beats the
Record for Fast Time.

Ohio Republican Convention Beats the
Record for Fast Time.
Columbus, O., June 26.-The Repub.
lican state convention here yesterday
broke the Ohio record by completing
its work in three hours. The intense
heat was prostrating and Chairman
Hanna not only cut short his own
speech, but also those OF others and
then dispatched business with the Ut
most speed.
In those three hours the convention
nominated a full state ticket, adopted
its declaration of principles, endorsed
j. B. Foraker as the Republican candi-
date for reelection as United States
senator, completed the party ~organiza-
ton for the campaign and transacted
other business.
Of the seven nominations, only three
were new men. n one OF these, Nip
pert, for lieutenant governor, was nom
mated without opposition, after Lieu
tenant Governor Caldwell had de-
clined denomination. Nash, Sheets,
Cameron and Johnston were renom1-
mated for second terms without oppo.
sition. There We're free for all con
tests for the nominations for supreme
judge and clerk of the supreme court.
The vote showed that j. L. Price and
Lawson d.. Emerson had formed a com
bination that worked successfully for
both of them. Judge Price of Lima
has been on the common pleas and
circuit court benches and Emerson has
been prominent in politics in eastern
Ohio for many years.
