Old Timer Of this City Dies
in Boulder.

Many Of the residents OF Central will
hear with deep regret OF the death OF
j. Ben Lewis who expired in Boulder
last Monday evening. Deceased had

years, prior to his leaving for the Klon-
dixie in 1907. During the major portion

~. Ben Lewis, pioneer of Leadviile,
famous in the first Klondike rush and
noted in Colorado mining history, died
at the Place sanitarum, Boulder, at s
o'clock last night. His death was the
result of Bright's disease and other com
plications. Injuries received in the
Klondike and the exposure to. the rig
ors OF the fierce winters there so weak
: ened his constitution that he had not
been we'll since returning from that re-
gion.
"Mr. Lewis died at the age of 81. He
was the first to start the town OF Lead
vile and the first setter to help estab-
lish the town OF Red Cliff in Eagle
county. He was elected to the fifth
general assembly from a district com
prising Eagle, Garfield and Summit
counties.
"Later he went to Gilpin county and
became manager Of the Gold Rock mine
and other properties. In 1897 he lead
the vanguard into the Klondike region
remaining there until the fall Of 1903.
While living in Missouri after returning
from Alaska, his wife. q sister Of Mrs
T. J. O'Donnell Of Boulder. died, and
he returned to Colorado last February,

AN EXTRA STEAMER.

MIR. Rothwell suggested that it would
be n matter OF courtesy to the Oceanic
Steamship Co II they were asked to put
on an extra steamer during the present
congestion OF traffic. lie said even the
old Zealandia was better than nothing
and they could stand IL for some time.
Mr. Rothwell stated that when he was
last In san Francisco he saw an adver-
tisement of fares to Los Angeles at $3.50
while just below was a notice of the
fare to Honolulu-s75.OO. lie felt that
some one was taking advantage of the
shipping laws 10 the injury of Hawaii.
AS long as the people sat down and
stood this discrimination, they would
never get reduced fares. II favor joint
action. even of practical nature-to
charter a steamer and cut the rates" "
said Mr. Rothwell. 1T is high time we
did get it or else sit down and say we
are satisfied"
Mr.. Gartenberg asked how much su-
gar was being shipped by the Oceanic
and Pacific Mail. Mr.. Humburg replied
that the Pacific Mail was not taking
any sugar.
Mr.. Rothwell said he did not want
hasty action and suggested reference to
a committee. Mr.. Macfarlane thought
the directors should consider the mat
ter, and Mr.. Rothwell amended that the
directors report back to meeting two
weeks from date. Mr.. McInerny thought
the time was too short as perhaps the
committee would have to communicate
with the coast. Mr.. Macfarlane said
the agents were powerless and the work
would have to be done with the COM
panies direct. Mr.. Lutted thought there
was possibility of getting in Il line of
fruit steamers such as ran between the
West Indies and New York.
The motion was finally adopted to
leave the matter in the hands of the di-
rectors to negotiate with the companies
and report back to the Association be-
fore taking final action.
