lar to that which has happened in almost
every neighborhood in the United States
and has been told and retold by thous-
ands of Others. He says: Last sum-

purchased bottle of Chamberlain S

with entirely satisfactory results. The

than former attacks when l used other

The glorious Fourth has come and
gone, but theJmemory of ell will linger
for time to come with this notable event.
Never in the history of Idaho Springs
has an event happened that even COM
pared to the big three day celebration Of
last week-or, we might say the big five
days celebration.
The truth ofthe matter is that the blow
out commenced on Wednesday and did
not come to a finale until Sunday even
ing. And still the people did not grow
tired. True it was impossible to hold the
crowd, but what would we have done
with them had they decided that Idaho
Springs should feed and shelter them for
all that timer
1t is safe to say that the biggest and
most enthusiastic crowd ever present in
the city was here on the Fourth. They
came from all parts of the state, and were
jolly good natured set of people. Cen
tral City, Georgetown and all of Clear
Greek county, in fact everyone who had
the time and money to spare, made it a
point to be present.
Can any other mining camp boast of
maintaining the perfect order that was
preserved in the city during the celebra-
ton? During the entire four days not
one arrest was made. While few of the
visitors persisted in indulging little too
freely in intoxicants, their behavior was
good and only once was any trouble pro-
missed. That was when two colored men
got in an argument, and threatened to
carve one another. Marshal O'Rourke
and Night Watchman Libby are entitled
to great deal of praise for the perfect
order throughout the city.
AS general rule in a celebration of
this kind, pickpockets and sneak thieves
make it point to be present on such
gala occasions, but as far as can be
learned no one lost cent during the en-
tire week.
One man, who might be called faker,
arrived in the city and succeeded in Sc
curing license for the carrying on of a
game, but as soon as Marshal O'Rourke
learned it was not square he ordered
the man to close up and leave the town.
But everybody enjoyed themselves.
There was plenty of amusement for both
old and young, and there was something
doing all the time.
More interest was centered in the drill
ing contests than any other events. Es-
pecia11y was this so of the machine drill
ing. The principal makes of machines
which were entered were the water Ley
ner, model S, the Ingersoll-Sargeant, and
the Sullivan drills. ]. George Leyner,
of the Leyner drill made a
special inducement to the contestants
using his machine, by offering special
prize of $50 to the team that made the
best record with his machine. From the
start it could be seen that the Leyner
was the drill that would capture the
prize as all who handled this make did
excellent work, To be sure every en-

he received an answer which. according
to his Interpretation, read rs follows:

As he finished. Greeley sank back in

Just then Larkaway took q quick for
