The ADVERTISING LAW.
Passed by the Legislature. Now
IN Effect.
SOME THINGS the LAW REQUIRES
TO BE PUBLISHED.

At it's recent session the Keh-
lucky Legislature passed a State
Advertising law, which is now in
effect. 1t provides:
"In addition to the notices now
provided by law to be posted, all
public sales of any kind of prop
erty, when sold under execution,
judgment or decree shall, unless
otherwise agreed upon by the par
ties to such execution, judgment
or decree, be advertised in some
newspaper published in the coun-
ty of such sale, if any newspaper
be therein published, at least once
a week for three consecutive weeks
next preceding the day Of sale.
Provided, that in the counties
where there is a daily newspaper
published, or in general circula-
ton, publication of such notice of
sale for three consecutive days
next preceding the day of sale be
sufficient. The advertisement
shall state time, place and terms of
sale, and shall give a description
of the property to be sold. ProSi-
ded, that the newspaper advertise
ment herein provided for shall not
be necessary where the appraise ed
value of the property to be sold is
| less than one hundred dollars, to
be ascertained by appraisement in
each case, as is now provided by
law.
whenever any suit or action in
court involving the settlement of
any estate whatever is referred to
any commissioner or other officer,
to receive and report claims, or
for any other purpose, it shall be
the duty of such commissioner or
lother officer to advertise the time,
place and purpose of his sittings,
in the same manner as provided
for advertising sale of property by
Section First hereof.
For all newspaper advertising
required by this act or any other
law, the publisher shall be entitled
to receive as full compensation for
such advertising at the rate of fif-
ty cents per linear inch, single col
umn, solid, eight point measure,
for each insertion, and in all adj
vertisements in judicial proceed
ings the cost of advertisement
sh all be taxed as costs by the clerk
of the court. Provided, that the
rates of advertising in daily news
papers shall not exceed one dollar
per lin cal inch per insertion"

Springs, a beautiful city Of $4,000
people. 10 situated on 9 plain just
ut the foot of Pixies Peak. The
climate here in sumner 10 most
delightful. Colorado Springs has
an altitude Of 6lS9 feet. while the
summit Of Pixies Peak il l4,l47 II
above the level Of the sea.
When l left Texas two weeks
ago the temperature was SO do
gress la the shade. I slightsd
from the train at Colorado Springs
"a hours later. aud found the pso-
Pile all wrapped in regular winter
ovsrcoats and furs were
ia general demand. | cast my
eyes toward the Peak and found
the top covered with snow. The
next thing did was to hurry of
to the hotel and bring forth my
winter suit, which I was mindful
enough to bring along.
i find this climate subject to
great extremes. Some days, for q
few hours near the middle Of the
day, at least, II is pretty warm and
aud the next day. perhaps, snow
will fall quite generally. Yester-
day was the hottest day since 1
came. The temperature reached

the hustle and bustle on the street

Cripple Creek distriot.
Many readers of the Press
doubtless remember the career OF
one w. s. Stratton, the discovsrer
of the Cripple Greek gold field.
Formerly he was a carpenter In
this city. Poverty had rendered
him penniless. His wife beoom-
ing Respondent from having to sup
port the family by taking in wash.
ing, chose to abandon her hus-
band on the ground of non sup
port. Stratton at times became 90
poor that he could not pay for his
meals. Still with Flick and bar he
for gold. Luck came his
way. Districts over which other
,rospectors had passed no found |
o DO rich in gold. He sold the
amou. Independence mine to an
English company for eleven mil.
ion dollars. He yet owns many
ich mines The most valuable
property and enterprises in the
'ity are now STATIONS. He is
pending a million dollars on q
public park. The poor are re-
rendered by him. He does not

,rovements. On labor day he
marches with the laboring people.
lis wealth is now estimated at
orty million dollars.
While this man has made his
millions have bssa lost
~ others. The entire Cripple
,rssk country reminds one of a
Western prairie log town.
Every foot of land has been ia

fountains are punotursd with

CINE takes her stand OIL the sum-
NIT Of this lofty peak of the old
Rockies. Up the side we cross
the great Cheyenne canon on tres
tie work 1000 feet from the ground
below. Further up We climb, as
the threads of a screw, around the
sides OF st. Peters Dome. Finally
We come in sight Of Cripple Greek
in the valley below. Then the
train begins to circle and wind,
round and round, until we de-
scend upon the Garden of Gold"
While in Cripple Greek l make
inquiries for my old friend, Dave
Franks, whom the PRESS used to
be familiar with as Jim Tom"
from Glendale. AsI only had a
short while In the city, and as
Dave was at dinner, I failed to see
him. l found, however, that he
was we'll known IN Cripple Greek

mining.

l attempted to walk to the top
of the mountain; but l changed
my intention. When l reached
the halfway house l had enough.
Up the trail it 10 9 miles from the
base to the top. The air 10 so thin

These are some of the pleasant,
