slant reader of the Dayton Volkeszeitung'
He knows that this paper aims to adver-

not hesitate in buying a bottle OF 1t Tor
his wife, who for eight weeks had suffer
ed with the most terrible pains in her
back and could get no relief. He says :
after using the Pain Balm for few days
my wife said to me, 4 feel as though born
anew, and before using the entire con-
tents of the bottle the unbearable pains
had entirely vanished and she could
again take up her household duties" He
is very thankful and hopes that all suffer

recovery. This valuable liniment is for

w. A. KUNTZ.....
Next First National Bank.

The popular mountain market of this
section is that of w. A. Kuntz.
Cleanliness and the best meats to be
obtained has given him a reputation in
Idaho Springs.
His meat cutters are always courteous
and understand their business.
The fact that he buys for spot cash
and discounts all bills means that he can
carry this little benefit to his customers
as money saving proposition for them.
He respectfully asks you to call and give
him satisfaction for you every
time and that makes you one of his

Much Needed Warning.

Bob Wright, the father of four small
children, who lives up Chicago creek,
was given warning last week that If he
did not look after his wife and children,
a committee would look after him. 1t
has been known for some time that
Wright was neglecting his family, and
had it not been for the neighbors, they
would have found it pretty hard to get
along. The husband and father has fac
ulty of spending all the money he gets
for liquor, and never does he go home un-
til he is either full or broke. The neigh
bors grew tired of his antics and placed
the matter in the hands of the humane
society. The result was that he was no
tilted to care for those deserving. Wright
from all appearances needed the warning,
and it is said he has settled down and
gone to work.

Already the manager is receiving appli-
cations from parties who are desirous of
securing the place for entertainments
which will take place during the tourist
season. Many lodges which intend to
hold state meetings will now come to
Idaho Springs.
Travelling Passenger Agent Church of
the Colorado and Southern railway, who
was in the city last Friday, was much
pleased with the enterprise. He an
nounced that Idaho Springs could now
look for the company which he repre-
sents to bring many people to the city.
Excursions will be more numerous and
the stopping point will be here. Picnic
parties and other organizations will come
to the city to spend day, or perhaps two.
In the neighborhood of $500 will be ex-
pended in illuminating Big Chief. A pack
will be used in taking the necessary arti-
cles to the summit. Big Chief is nearly
IL 900 feet above sea level, or over one
mile above Denver. Thus it can be seen
that the people in the capitol city will
will have no difficulty in witnessing the
display. All other surrounding towns
will be so favored.
The girls band of Georgetown will be
in the city on the day of the opening,
which will probably be on the 2oth uf the
present month. They will march through
the principal streets, playing popular airs
and meet every special train which brings
in the visitors. A dance is to be given in
the evening.
There will be no difficulty in accommo-
dating all who are desirous of tripping
the light fantastic. The dancing floor can
accommodate eighty couples at time,
and then have room to spare.
The best view to be obtained of the il
Illumination will be in front of the Troca-
dero, so makeit point to be there.

Teamsters Most Pay License.

William E. Elliott, who was arrested
last week on the charge of conducting an
express wagon without license, had his
trial before Justice Whiting last Friday.
The magistrate held that the work being
performed by Elliott was strictly within
the limits of the city ordinance, and in
accordance Herewith fined the defend
ant in the sum of IS and costs. An ap-
peal was taken to the county court for the
purpose of testing the validity of the city
ordinance.
Elliott claimed that the city had no
right to ask him to pay license when he
was only teaming. He testified on the
stand that he took contract and job work
of hauling, and in view of this fact the
magistrate could do nothing but impose
the fiue

Residents of Idaho Springs should
keep awake. A big time is coming, and
it is not very far distant Some time the
coming week the management OF the
Trocadero will cause the whole surround
ing country to be lighted up. The affair
is to be one of the biggest of the kind
ever attempted in this state. No expense
is to be spared to make the enterprise
huge success, so be sure and be awake on
the night in question.
Big Chief mountain, the very top, is to
lighted. Calcium lights will be burning,
and in addition to this one of the grand
est displays of fireworks ever known will
take place.
And all this is in honor of the opening
of the Trocadero. 1t cannot be disputed
but that the Trocadero, which is now re-
ceiving its finishing touches, is one which
will prove of more benefit to this city
than anything ever before launched. For
years idaho Springs has been sadly in
need of just such an institution. There
was no place where the merry makers
could assemble in numbers large enough
to accommodate all who were desirous of
attending, and in view of this fact every
body will rejoice.
Excursions are to be run from all sec
tions. Two will come from Denver, and
Others from Georgetown, Silver Plume,
Empire, Central City and other points
1t is fully expected that 5000 people will
be in the city on the day of the opening
of the Trocadero.
The Trocadero is a structure of beauty
1t was built at cost of nearly 81, 900,
and under most adverse circumstances.
The promoters met with only discourage
ment from the start, but they fully real
lied that it would hurt no one and beneht
all. Now that it is completed, the knock
ers have arrived at the same conclusion.

FOURTH OF JULY
Passes Away Quietly in Gill5in County
Very Few People Remain at Home

Passes Away Quietly in GillHn County
Very Few People Remain at Home,
Last Friday was about the quietest
4th of July ever witnessed in Gilpin
county, nothing whatever going on, and
the citizens of the county took occasion
to visit other cities and resorts. The
majority of those leaving went to Den
yer, while some 300 visited the tourna-
ment at Idaho Springs, and many others
going to the South Boulder on fishing
excursions. All day Thursday the
trains were filled with outgoing people,
and Friday morning it was necessary to
run two sections out of this city. The
liveries had every available horse hired
out, and it was impossible to get horse
in any way.
The Central City firemen sent hook
and ladder team to Idaho Springs to
contest for the prize, and the boys re-.
turned with $50. having tied George.
town for first place, and first and second
prizes we're equally divided. Central
City team wanted to run Georgetown
afterwards for 800 but the latter would
not run.
A. G. Peterson won the 200 yard foot
race and a first prize OF $40.
In the double hand drilling Gilpin
county secured nothing but in the single
hand w. Roberts, of Nevadaville won
first prize Of 800, easily beating all
others by putting down hole 261S in.
Thursday afternoon the Central City
base ball club defeated the Golden Reds
by score of 16 to 6. The Goldens were
never in it for momsnt, being unable
to hit Semmens, while Central hit
Maughn very freely. 1t was good
revenge for the defeat that had been
administered Central by the Reds some
weeks ago. Tho score was.

Gilpin county had done very we'll and
everybody was well pleased, and ex-
pectations we're high that Central City
would win the base ball contest on Sun
day for 800, but we're doomed to dis
appointment. When the Central boys
got on the diamond they found they were
compelled to 60 against several Denver
professionals, and in truth picked nine
from the state. Our boys. after making
complaint and it doing no good, con-
cluded tt, play the Idahos as they stood
Then they were compelled to allow an
Idaho man umpire, and Of all the bad
ones he was the worst, he making de-
cisions that blind man would be
ashamed OF. After several rank decis-
ions Central refused to play until the
umpire was changed, which Idaho re-
luctantly agreed to do. but it had the
game well in hand by that time, and
Semmen's arm was in bad shape 30 he
had to retire, for Idaho had six runs in
at the time OF the change. Leidinger
was then put in by Central and did very
we'll. but the big lead Idaho had secured
could not be overcome, and the home
boys met with defeat. Central is not
satisfied with this defeat, and on Mon
day issued challenge to play the same
nine for 800, which has been accepted
by Idaho, and as soon as arrangements
can be made the two mines will meet
again, but Central intends that Idaho
shall play but nine men and not ton, %
they attempted to do last Sunday. The
score was as follows:
