The City Was Unruly.

There was hot times in store for the
police officers last Saturday night and
Marshal O'Rourke says that never before
during his term of office has he had as
much to contend with. Many of the
miners were paid of, and those inclined
to indulge focked into the city where
they proseeded to 1iven up things.
Trouble started about o:3o in the White
House saloon, and during the melee
many people received jolts in the face
and head. that they will remember for
some time. A man by the name of Will
Lewis lost control of himself and pro-
ceeded to sweep out the place. He had
little difficulty in completing the job and
at the end of about three minutes the
street in front of the saloon was crowded.
He cared not who happened to be in his
way. But he ran against a youngster who
was capable of looking out for himself.
Lewis received as good as he sent and in
the end wound up in the city jail. In
decent language was indulged in by
Lewis, and it required the combined
strength of Marshal O'Rourke and Night
Watchman Libby to put him where he
belonged.
On Monday morning Lewis was taken
before Magistrate Whiting, where he re-
ceived a fine of $25 and costs. Had it
not been for the fact that this was the
mans first offense he, no doubt, would
have received the limit

HAD A SPECIAL TRAIN.
George Moscript Forgot His Trunk and
Makes a Hurried Trip.

A special train is nice thing. All be-
cause you can have it move at your
pleasure. That is the thought that struck
George Moscript, one of the popular
young men of this city, last Saturday
night. II appears that George went to
Denver some time during the day and
there met his old friend George E. Pal
mer, who is now famous as the owner of
the finest collection of horses in the west.
The two went up to the Brown, where
they had good long talk, after which
Mr.. Palmer suggested that the two make
trip to Salt Lake where the Elks were
to be in convention.
Haven't got my trunk with me-"
said George.
But a little thing like that did not
worry Mr.. Palmer. Stepping over to the
telephone he rang up the dispatcher of
the Colorado and Southern and asked for
special for Idaho Springs.
" In thirty minutes" was the reply.
Messrs. Palmer and Moscript repaired
to the Union depot and upon their arrival
found the train all in readiness. They
seated themselves and away she went.
The trip was made in about two hours,
the couple arriving here at about II
o'clock. But they were not satisfied with
only securing the trunk, but instead COM
PEELED few of their intimate friends to
get up and dress. Then the trunk was
secured and the party started for Denver.
They arrived there safely at 2 O'Clock
and a few hours later Messrs. Palmer
and Moscript boarded the Elk train for
Salt Lake City.

Not Served First, He Took His
Leave Accompanied by Men,
bers OF His Party, including
Mrs. Goelet.

Grand Duke Boris has taught Newport
that when In Rome to do as the
Romans do is not a rule for royal OBJ
The lesson was taught at the
expense and humiliation of Mrs. Richard
Gambrill, at whose dinner the Grand
Duke was a guest Of honor.
Newport to-day is divided into hostile
camps over the propriety Of the Grand
Dukes conduct in taking with the ut
most seriousness the error or indiscre-
ton Of Mrs. Gambrill's butler.
1t was a trihing error from some
points Of view, but so far reaching in
its results that Mrs. Gambrill has been
placed without the pale OF those who
will meet the Duke during the remain
der Of his stay in Newport. 1t may
also interfere somewhat with the popu-
larity OF the royal visitor among those
whose A~mericanism Ii stronger than
some other qualities which seem in
%digenous TO the atmosphere of Newport.

bers OF the royal family always receive
the first attention. One of Mrs. Gam
brill's servants. however, served souB
to the hostess before the Grand Duke
was waited upon.
The royal blood of Russia boiled Al
that. The nephew of the Gear, who has
repeatedly arrived anywhere from fifteen
minutes to an hour behind the stated
time at dinners given in his honor
could not brook such a fracture of the
social convenances. The jar to his royal
dignity was so great that he passed his
hand across his forehead as though the
shock made hin faint. He excused
himself to his hostess and abruptly

the Dukes conduct and with Icy dignity
she bade the departing guests good
night.
The latter were driven to the Goelst
villa, where a hasty dinner was pre-.
pared and the Grand Duke got the hrsi
