BEssEMER, though isolated from
the main center of the business sec
tion of the city by reason of distance,
is by no means sectional and has the
welfare of all parts of the municipal
ity at heart. Its board of trade is
in for the promotion of anything that
will help all Pueblo. There was time
when Bessemer was In itself a city Of
the second class, and it boosted solely
for Bessemer then. 1t is boosting
for itself now but only in the sense
of being the industrial and manufac-
turing end of the city-the big and
most important end. Nobody has
any right to object to that stand, for
it is the stand that all hustlers in all
sections of the city should take. But
while helping itself Bessemer is not
unmindful of the fact that it is part
of the big prosperous city of Pueblo
and is helping all along the line.

DO NOT be deceived by the specious
talk that because Governor Peabody
insisted on preserving law and order
in the Cripple Creek district he was
opposing the interests of the labor
ing man" No such thing. When the
governor first took a hand in the
matter there were not 100 men at
work in the mines of Cripple Creek
and now they are numbered by the
thousands and at the same wages and
hours as before. Many of them are
new men. it is true, but they are not
capitalists nor millionaries. He paved
the way for the employment of sever
al thousand worthy miners who were
being held back by band of lawless
adventurers who had nothing to lose
and everything to gain. Every miner
in that district declared that the strike
was uncalled for. 1t was a sympa-
thetic strike called ostensibly to aid
handful of smeltermen at Colorado
City who were having a misunder-
standing with the management, but
in reality it was made the pretext for
Meyer, Haywood, ct al to show their
strength through the W. F. NJ. and
thus work political graft. But the
bubble is bursted now and the honest
and worthy miner of Colorado is en-
tering upon an era of steady employ
ment. the best he has ever known.

Wherever you see the crowds of

you will see a good, lively, solid town,

IN A STREET CAR.
She Managed to Turn the Tables on
Her Husband.

An amusing evidence of feminine jeal-
ousy and quick wit was witnessed by at.
least one other passenger than the two III
rectly interested On a Pennsylvania avenue
car the other afternoon. At the 1ntersec-
ton Of 18th street a good-looking young
couple boarded the front car, which was
closed one, and took the only vacant two
seats in the middle. At the transfer sta
ton at 18th street several passengers left
the car. but more from the other line got
on, so that one Young woman was left
standing. The young man who had got on
with the young woman at nth street arose
and offered his seat to the lady. She ac-
cepted graciously and his face reflected
the satisfaction he felt at having had the
good fortune to give his seat to a hand
some woman.
She was gowned faultlessly and her ex-
preston of pleasure at all things was
equal to that of the young man who had
given her the seat. She looked coyly at
him once or twice and blushed when he
caught her eye. At the second glance the
young woman whom the gentleman was
escorting saw the maneuver and glared at
her unconcerned sister. 1t was evident
that the latter did not know that the man
was accompanied, and it was the business
of the other to enlighten her and do 1t
quickly and decisively. From that instant
it was evident to the interested spectator
of the little comedy that the pair were man
and wife, but the other girl was Sublimely
unconscious of this papable fact and con-
tinued, from time to time, her glances at
the man. Then it happened.
Charlie" said the lady who had come in
with the man, her voice having just timbre
enough to carry clearly to the ear of the
other GIRL Il don't think we can get along
another day with Cora, and IL you don't
discharge her this very day I will"
The other turned toward her and her
face crimsoned to the back of her neck,
but the wife went on, utterly unconscious
of the presence of any one else and de-
termined to have her revenge upon both
the culprits. The husband, by this time,
was seeking a convenient hole into which
he might crawl and pull 1t in after him.
and the face of the other girl had now,

said a word. but his wife had more to

do you think the baby will be safe
with Cora? I declare I'm afraid of that
girl and I'll never leave the baby with her
again. She simply has to go and at once"
At this the man looked amazed and the
listener knew that that baby was a fiction.
But the game worked and the other girl
left the car hurriedly at 18th street Then
the wife looked innocently at her husband
and smiled quietly to herself
