GOLDEN OPPORTUNITIES FOR
MEN WITH MONEY

| In looking around a few days ago
Tor house, only three vacant ones
were found in Durango. Two of them
were in poor locations. one near the
5melter, without any yard. the other
| IN back street in North Durango
rhe third was well situated, but had
only been vacant a few days. This
| hows how much need there is in Du.
rango of more building. There are
vacant lots on Second and Third ave
nue.. not far from the business portion
of the city. where neat pretty houses
| might be built, with lawn in front and
| arden at the rear. According to the
| way people have been leaving Durango
| lately because they were not able to
| secure homes, such residences, once
erected, would be constantly occupied.
| II few men with capital, would come
| in here and put up score or more of
iottages, they would be making mon
ev on them in a very short time. On
Fifth and Sixth avenues are pretty
quiet spots for residences and now
that the business parts of the city are
being pushed more and more towards

a pretty place to live in. and easily

Animas City are not so far away as
the suburbs of many cities, where
many business men live in preference
to the portions near which their of

the new road which the Boston Coal
Fuel company have just laid out,
can be seen the finest view in Duran

road, over which they intend laying

waiting only for the pick to turn Du-
range into one of the richest cities in
the union. Standing on that road
which winds around the mountain
side one can dream tales like those
in Arabian Nights of the fueure which
awaits Durango, and reasonably ex-
pect the widest of them fulfilled.
There is no reason why Durango
should not equal any city in the state
in wealth and size. 1t has resources
enough to make it the Denver of the
southwest in less than ten years
time. Every new family that comes
in to settle helps that much to in
crease it, and every new store or office
that is opened adds that much to its
business Importance. But people
mist have places to live in In a
very few years, months perhaps.
houses with thriving gardens and
yfeen lawns should extend out on all
the suburban roads and dot the hill
sides. Almost every business capacity
that men are endowed with, can find
an outlet and success in Durango.
The hordes of working men with their
families are those that build up the
population and prosperity OF a place,
and these are the people that are now
going away from Durango because
they cannot find suitable places to live

THE HEALTH OF JURORS

An interesting question has been
raised by the demand Of one Of the
men who served on the jury that tried
the famous Mohneux case in New
York. he has preferred a claim for
$4,000, on the ground that his health
has been permanently impaired in
consequence of his long confinement
and arduous service incident TO the
trial Of that case. The claim has been
submitted to the city comptroller, and
that official Is reported to be consider
ally puzzled as to the decision he
ought TO render. If he disallows the
claim the ex-juror intends TO submit
It to the courts, in which event some
highly interesting and novel points of
law and equity are sure to be raised.

the services Of It's qualified citizens for
