COLORADO is HoNoREp.

According to the Washington cor
respondent of the New York World,
the distinguished junior senator from
Colorado is commanding tho utmost
consideration from the foremost lead
ers of senatorial thought and action,
Whenever he speaks they seek the
corridors to hide their emotions
When he sits down the applause is
hearty and sincere.
When he is offended there are no
amends too extreme to appease his
injured senstbilities.
Thus. when Senator Spooner In ihe
course Of a speech in the senate on
the day of adjournment. urwittingly
said something which called forth a
protest from the the statesman from
| Colorado. the gentleman from. Niscon
| sir was instantly humbled.
y Withdraw the remark" said Sena-
tor Spoonef apologetically.
'It wasn't 30 much the remark, as 1t
was the manner in which you made
it," protested the genial Patterson.
II withdraw the remark" exclaimed
Senator Spooner.
Still the senator from Colorado did
not seem satisfied and Senator
Spooner held up his hands despair
ingly and said. II efface myself from
the scene altogether. | am expunged.
Now will the senator be satisfied
Surely when so eminent person
age as the distinguished senator iror
/ Wisconsin shall hasten to expunge
la; hat a
of offense may remain to the modest
and unassuming Mr. Patterson. there
is cause for swelling pride in the bos

There are many truly beautiful
spots in Durango. None would want
n pleasanter place to live at any sea-
son of the year, than on Third avenue
which is especially beautiful during
the summer months. with its boule-
ward and handsome green shade trees
down the center and on the sides.
Large cities according to their size,
may have more imposing structures.
and things laid out on grander scale.
but such would look out of place in a
city like Durango The boulevard is
just suited to her needs, to make her
one of the most beautiful towns In the
state or country. There are other
pretty spots, too. For the lover of
Nature. and country scenes there Is
little peep of rural life and beauty
as one crosses the bridge into North
Durango. On the banks of the rip
pling Animas. fine trees crowd togeth-
er. dipping into the water. whispering
and singing with the murmur of the
stream. and just on the other side of
the bridge between more trees, the
level lines of green farm land present
n rural picture of surprising beauty
Durango has fine trees throughout the
the city, but especially in North Du-
range and Brookside. where Nature
seems to be doing its best There are
many pretty residences up that way,
also, and when the parks are opened
which we hope will be in the near fu-
ture and amusements are offered in
those shady groves to the people of
the town. Durango will have taken
one good step in advance. There is
nothing in the whole town to repel
the stranger. Even the poor little
shanties that cluster around the out
skirts have something that is cheerful
and homelike about them, making one
feel that it is not always necessary
to have a mansion in order to have a
home Although there are not shade
trees and lawns and fine gardens
these poor little places. there is not
the filth and squalor that is seen in
many cities and towns in the poorer
sections, and almost every little
board cottage has at least bitt of lit
tie white curtain and a few plants In
the window to make it look cheerful,

 Bill and Other Things.

Washington, Apr. 1.-The members Of the executive council Of the Ameri can Federation If labor had T confer e-lce with President Roosevelt today upon labor matters in which the fed cratioa is interested. The subject dis cussed included Chinese exclusion. the eight hour law. the prison labor bill. an increase in salary of letter carriers, and the right or government employees to solicit legislation in their own be- half.
 Regarding Chinese exclusion the la Dor leaders told the president that they were not pleased with the failure of the senate 10 add the seamen's section to the Chinese exclusion bill passed yesterday. The president. it is stated. expressed himself in favor of an effec- tive Chinese exclusion law and as in sympathy with the demands of labor as to the eight hour bill and the prison labor bill.

 This case was followed by the latest phase of the Monahan- Metcalf contrc- versy. involving at first only a $eO hoard bill, but which now embraces $G00 worth of diamonds and q lot of court costs. Judgment was obtained last summer in Justice Burnett's court by Mrs. Monahan for the amount of the board bill. Some diamonds belonging to the defendant were garnisheed and in the course of time their sale was CT derad. There was q variety of pro- ceedinEs. and finally. when an injunc- tiCn. sued out by the defendant against the sale of the diamonds was dissolved. the defendant settled with the plaintiff by paying the judgment and costs in the original action. No provision was made in the settlement for the pay n:ent of the costs in the garnishment proceedings and appeal The diamonds were in the hands of the sheriff. who refused to give them up, and in the course of time they would have been sold for the payment of the. costs. An other injUHction against the sale was prayed for. The prayer included pc tition for an order to the sheriff to sur render the diamonds. After hearing Of this last case the court announced that the defendant ought to pay ali the costs. No formal order was made, the attorney for the petitioner saying he would like to submit some authori- ties today.
