She was them elected to a position in

Possibly the oldest and best known
business man of Nashville among the

been in business twenty-five yeaers
and owns $4,000 worth of real estate.
He does $4,000 worth of business per

with all he constantly gained the con-

On Monday, August Sd, there will

the frightful conditions which beset
our people in different parts of the

until the remedy is discovered and ap-

pressed their interest and given their
cordial support to this movement

us along the foot hills and down
some beautiful valleys and amidst
some mountain scenery that is grand
and sublime, back to our Pullman
coaches that were awaiting US.
Tuesday morning over the Denver
& RloGrande we were whirrled
along the base of the mountains
through irrigated fields and variga-
ted scenery to Denver, the beautiful
capita! city.
Here we were met by the COM
mercial club OF the city and after
breakfast, given seats in the obser-
vation trolley car. Thence follow
ed about two hours and half of in
tense interest and amusement. AS
we skinned along from one part of
the city to another, man in the
front end of the car with a mega
phone enlightened US as to the prin-
ciple points of interest and amused
while he instructed. We were shown
every courtesy by the business men
of the city, and our short stay was
made very pleasant. Denver is
surely very beautiful as well as
prosperous city. 1t is noted for its
beautiful homes and well kept lawns,
as we'll as for its industrial enter
prises. Our last day, Wednesday,
was spent in viewing the wonderful
scenery around Colorado Springs.
Here it was go-as-you please race
among the excurslonists and they
broke up into little crowds seeking
each in his own way.
Some took carriages, some rode
burrows and others went on foot.
Our guess is that the footmen, aid
ed by the street cars, saw more
,ffeclually the wonderful grandeur
If these scenes than any others.
Our trip took us upthe wonderful
Cheyenne Canon, between the lofty
pillars of solid granite about 500

ever beheld more glorious sight
than was spread out before us
Above our heads still lowered few
peaks but below US nothing could
be seen but the soft billowy clouds
of snowy white as far as we could see.
The scene was indescribably
grand. The deathlike stiffness of
the surroundings, and the soft mel
low beauty of those clouds that
shut out the view of the fearful
caasms that laid below us seemed to
so fill every one with wonder and as
tonishment that scarcely word
was spoken till we had passed
around the peak and away from the
wonderful enchantment. Finally
we started down on the other side
of the divide and ratified along at
pretty lively pace till we began to
approach Cripple Creek. Here an
other great feat of engineering is ex-
hibited. Cripple Creek seems to be
many hundred feet down in basin
below the surrounding mountain
tops, said to be an old volcano
crater. The railroad winds around
among the peaks first one way and
then another gradually getting lower
all the time. At every break in the
mountains the city can be seen
away down below, sometimes on
one side of the cars and sometimes
on the other, always looking like a
chessboard with its blocks and
squares.
No one ever gets better birds
eye view of city than the passenger
on the Short Line gets of Cripple
Creek as he approaches. At least
-four times on the descent it laid
spread out to view in its entirety.
At last we reached the station and
were hurried to the leading hotel of
the city, magnificent big building
where banquet had been prepared
by the commercial club. To this
we did ample justice as we listened
to speeches of welcome and re-
sponses. Afterthe banquet we were
taken in trolley cars and rode all
over the mining region round about
Cripple Creek and the surrounding
camps. They took us spinning
along among those mountains with
large mines on every hand, and
landed US in Victor, very consid-
erable little city ill the very midst
Of the best paying mines of the
whole district. We were marched
up the hill to the magnificent prop
erty of the Gold Coin company and
after being shown their powerful
machinery were lowered in the cage,
a few at time down the shaft I25
feet to the main tunnel where we
were loaded into a string of miners
cars and ratified along the dark and
narrow way by means of a small
motor, three quarters of a
mile to daylight.

500 feet high. 1t is a great work
