decided in favor of the plaintiffs in the
action to have receiver appointed for the
Bear Gulch Mining company.
The case has been before the court con-
t,nually for 10 days and involves the most
valuable mining property in the state.
After stating his reasons, the court said
he would appoint as receiver any one the
contesting parties could agree upon, but as
they were unable to come to an under
standing, the court appointed Alexander
Livingston of this city, at present assist
ant cashier of the First State bank.
The defendants gave notice of appeal to
the supreme court. The court also issued
an order restraining the present board of
directors from acting in that capacity.

ion the increase of the capital stock of the
company from 100000 shares to 1000 900

SUFFRAGISTS AND THE PRIZE
RING.
Leadville Herald Democrat.

Leadville Herald Democrat.
The esteemed contemporaries in
the East, where quilting and small
gossip are still the rage for the
good danes, are taking account of
little entertainment to be given
in Denver, probably this week, in
the shape of regular prize fight
between professionals, for the bene-
fit of the women solely 1t will be
conducted on the standard gauge
and the fighters are under engage
ment to draw blood and lots of it
and to end with knockout.
And why not?
The women of Denver are the
equal of the male species and
should they banker after gore they
will surely have it.
The suffrage was granted to make
women the equal of men from the
political point of view and no one
will deny but what politics and
prize fights are near allied. There
would be no prize fights in Denver
were it not for politics; there would
be no decision on the statute book
of the Denver district court that
woman has right to walk into
saloon by the front door and lean
her foot on the lower railing and
her elbows on the upper and re-
mark, "here's looking at you"
were it not that her votes count as
the mans on election day.
Some silurians insisted that wo-
mans suffrage was intended to put
an end to the plug g-ugly's reign and
the wine room but no attention
should be paid to such tattle ft\
only for the gossip of the door step.
Denver was never such "wide
open town" in its history as it is
now and women are told in every
campaign that they control the
situation. If man can go to the
Tammen- -Floto-Gallagher club of
night to see a ''scrap" there is no
reason why his wife or his daughter
or his sweetheart cannot do the
same thing on woman's night at
the ringside.

A hen -pecked editor over in Kansas
who knows his subject, springs the fol-
lowing: There are women who are
comely, there are women who are home
ly, but be careful how the latter thing
you say. There are women who are
healthy, there are women who are
wealthy, there are women who will al
ways have their way. There are women
who are truthful, there are women who
are youthful-was there ever any women
who were old? There are women who
are sainted, there are women who are
painted, there are women who are worth
their weight in gold. There are women
who are slender, there are women who
are tender, there are women who are
large and fat and red. There are women
who are married, there are women who
have tarried, there are women who are
talkless-but they're dead"
