In the second district of the state
league basketball association recently
organized, Idaho Springs, GEORGETOWN
and Montclair were recognized by the
promoters as the towns to comprise the
above district. Now for good basketball
playing. The boys are practicing hard
and using every effort possible to get in
shape as will enable them to stay at the
head of the list. The suits for the Idaho
Springs aggregation have just arrived
from Chicago, and now with continued
interest and hard practice there is no
reason why our boys can't beat the best
of 'em.

The weather of last week wasn't so hot
that our liverymen were compelled to
stand their horses in water an hour each
day to keep their shoes from falling off
and we failed to see any wagons pass the
office with their tongues hanging out,
it was not so rotten hot that the trout
kicked up such dust in the bed OF
Echo lake that we will find it necessary
to sprinkle before we go fishing next
summer, nor was it so hot that the
sparks from the c. & S, engine set Clear
Greek on fire and burned up a wagon
load of bullfrogs. oh no, it was quite
the reverse, thank you, it reminded us
very much of "the good old winter time" I"
still it was warmer here by good many
degrees than in the valley.

With the present prevailing spirit and
the great longing for knowledge and ad-
vancement other towns in Colorado
will have to look to their efforts and
their laurels or the little city of Idaho
Springs will outstip them not only in
educational and industrial advancement
but in the way of we'll constructed school
buildings. Our new High school build
ing is marvel of beauty both inside and
out and our citizens have just cause to
feel proud of this elegant structure.
The interior portion of the building is
now completed with the exception of the
rubber mats which will be placed on the
stairway.

Idaho Springs cannot be surpassed in
the way of location. The writer has
been in many towns, both in the east
and west, during his earthly existence,
but this is undoubtedly the finest town.
site we ever cast our optics on, and the
fact that with the proper push and en-
ergy and being at the base of so many
wealthy producing mounds will entitle
it to greater distinction than any city in
this part of Colorado.

The basement of the new High School
building is being used for a gymnasium
by the boys and it is safe to predict that
in the near future Idaho Springs will be
able to produce some good athletics.
1t is good move and will be highly
commended by all-for an ounce of gym
nastic exercise is worth more than a
pound of medicine.

THE TRADE REVIEWS.
Dunn and Bradstreet Tell of Coun
try's Business.

New York, Nov. 21.-Bradstreets says:
colder weather over the greater part
of the country, has greatly stimulated
retail trade, and incidentally quickened
iobbing demand in seasonable linen.
In some sections inquiries for holiday
goods exceed last years, the feature be-
ing the high grade of materials taken.
Interior retailers, helped by propitious
agricultural conditions, are reported
meeting obligations more promptly.
Farming interests are apparently in good
financial condition, an inference that
seems to be evidenced by the fact that
they display unwillingness to part with
their surplus products at anything less
than what they deem satisfactory prices,
though the movement of currency to
the interior continues, but on a smaller
scale than for some weeks. Southern
conditions are especially goods While
the foregoing are the favorable develop
ments of the week, the fact must not be
overlooked that labor troubles, the
gloomy outlook for building, the clos
ing down of iron and steel mills, blast
furnaces and leather tanneries and the
continued hesitancy in the buying of
practically all commodities, are factors
that mar the industrial as well as the
commercial fabric"

Exciting Experience.

Mrs. G.. G. Johnson received a
newspaper clipping from her son-in-

containing an account of quite an
exciting and dangerous experience
he had on the 14th inst. He was out
on the st. Charles river in a whale
boat with seven companions, when
the current became too strong for
the boat and it was dashed against
the false work Of the bridge and
completely demolished. The men
were all good swimmers and this
saved their lives. Their escape was
certainly miraculous.
