Colorado Points Of Interest Viewed

\
The following extracts from a letter
to Mr.. and Mrs. George Prime from
their daughter Marie. are published
by permission and win be found inter
esting to all:
Denver, Aug. 3D. Saturday after
hurrying through my work went
home and grabbed my carpet sack and
started for Colorado Springs. The
trip was in company with Miss Fom
belle and by four o'clock we arrived
in the beautiful city of 10000 inhab
itants. On the way down we passed
through very pretty country although
not mountainous, still in sight of the
mountain scenery. Palmer Lake is
about two-thirds Of the way and at an
uphill grade, being 1920 feet, while
Denver and the Springs are only s..
ESQ. Most every year they are doing
quite a neat business here at Palmer
Lake, but this year there is nothing
doing practically at all. This com
plant holds good, though, everywhere
I guess, on account of the Fair at
ST. Louis.
When we reached Colorado Springs
there was no one there to meet us,
but we decided that there would be
some one soon, so waited and soon
heard that glad call Of Annals and
there they were in three-seated rig
and driver to match, ready to take us
two girls to the hotel and leave our
grips, thence to a drive out South
Cheyenne Canon. We are looking on
all sides and have quite drive before
we reach the mountains, but we pass
through Stratton Park, one of the
prettiest | ever saw, and | guess the
only one Colorado Springs has. Then
we come to places of interest mostly
named on the rocks, one being called
the Devils Slide" and here is where
Anna and Mrs. Starke were riding
on those burros and Mrs. Starke made
the mention that it was no wonder the
devil had his toes turned up when he
got down that place. The entrance
is now only short distance, and the
driver told us to just wink at the gate
keeper and he would only charge us
25 cents, but we pretty near hurt our
eyes at it and then it cost US so cents.
This gate-keeper is also the owner
and at the beginning of tho season
was offered $4,000 for the lease of
the falls and grounds surrounding.
But he decided he was making little
too much off them during one year to
let it go. | wouldn't wonder but he
makes as much as six or seven thous-
and dollars during one year. There
is a kodak gallery and eating house,
besides taking pictures for pretty
near everyone who comes. Where are

Np1crnres Ky Nriscraziese Pictures are
taken, too. pAlf six OF us had ours
taken on the three and they are dan
dies. After having our beautiful
faces shot, we started on the long trip
Of climbing to the top of Seven Falls,
and by the time we reached the sum-
init of 264 steps we certainly have to
stop and wonder where our breath
has gone to. Upon climbing part of
the way we found a place where we
thought would be good place to have
a picture taken and the crowd pro-
ceeded to mount the top of the rock
and one long, gangling girl makes a
mis-step and down she takes a slide,
and the other sister starts after her,
and that makes it still more funny,
and / guess you could have heard
this crowd laughing all over the can
on. 1t made the one sister mad be-
cause the other one came after her
and tore her shirt waist in the scuf-
fle, and it tickled the rest of us to
see what chewing" they could do.
We would have gone to Helen Hunt
Jackson's grave had we had time, but
it was getting late and there were SO
many things to think of that we had
to let it go. There are two ways of
reaching this grave, one by the trail
that she used to go up the mountain
to reach her favorite spot where she
used to do her writing Of books, and
the other by climbing the steps of
Seven Falls and then walking over
about half mile. There is the story
that the white burro that we had our
pictures taken on is the same burro
that Helen Hunt Jackson used to
climb the mountains with, and he is
claimed to be AZ years old. He no
doubt is very near that, for the poor
old fellow is blind, deaf and dumb.
Hal hal
On our return to the city we came
back by the way of the Broadmore
Casino, one of the prettiest parks and
dancing paVilions ever saw, and
strictly first-class. On the west of
this pavilion is beautiful lake and
the grounds are kept up in the incest
way possible. The music is some
thing swell. and there seems to be
such an air of aristocracy in every.
thing surrounding. The dresses are
novel, and the gentlemen also in ey-
ening dress. until you are quite sure
that you have gotten in with the
grand four hundred"
Now you should see the hungry six
promeuading into that lovely dining
room of the hotel, the Alamo and
doing justice to that chicken we had
talked about all afternoon. Anna had
ordered frogs legs la carte with
saw dust. but we instead had turkey,
boiled salmon. banan fritters. etc.
etc. guess your mouth waters
enough now. so win diverge and tell
you about other things. The music.
though win have to mention 1t is
very, very nice, composed Of a clario-
net. violin and piano.
Early Sunday morning we got up and
dressed ourselves TO catch the early
train for Cripple Greek, Tickets IL.

The twentieth child that has

wife. fine boy. a month ago. was
christened on Thanksgiving day.
Mr.. Lendesdorff had determined to
name the baby Omega" which, 1t is
unnecessary to say, is the last letter
In the Greek alphabet. But a guest
at the Lendesdorff house, No. Ala Nc.
Donough street, Brooklyn, N. T., was
possessed by happy inspiration. AS
the christening party entered the par
lor he seated himself at the piano
and played the wedding march from
"Lohengrin," to the strains of which
the baby's mamma and papa took
their first steps together as a joyous
bride and bridegroom twenty-four
years ago.
Lendesdorff looked proudly at his
wife. who was forty-two years old
that day, cOmely woman, brimming
with happiness.
NO. cried Lendesdorff, determined
ly, Il will not name the baby Omega.
Theodore Roosevelt shall be his
name. Il am a democrat, but I am
heart and soul with the president in
his opposition to race suicide"
And Theodore Roosevelt the fine
baby was named.
So 1t was a great night at the Lend
esdOrff house-a triple celebration, a
christening, q birthday and Thanks
giving. Lendesdorff is superintendent
Of the Union line of steamers, and
is able to celebrate tn his generous
hearts content. Sixteen of his chill
dren are living. His oldest daughter
Is married and has made him grand
father twice. The sixteen children
and the two grandchildren marched
two by two in long line into the par
lor to Mrs. Lendesdorff Each kissed
her fondly and wished her. radiant,
many happy returns of the day. and
each gave her present. Even Theo-
dore Roosevelt, in his nurses arms,
gave his mamma present which he
clinched in his chubby pink fist.
But that was not all. Under the
roof were one hundred relatives and
neighbOrs, and they formed in line
and gave presents to Mrs. Lendes-
dorff. whose surprise was equaled
by her delight. Last of all her hus-
band saluted her and told her she
was the best wife. the truest woman
living. Then, smiling on his chill
dren. he said:

and customs of the world ever as

en- years. The duration of the exposi-
tion has been seven months, and dur.
ing that time nothing has occurred to
throw dampening effect on the in
terest or to detract from the exposi-

been maintained throughout; there
have been few fires, but all were Of
small moment, with exception Of the
obstruction of the House of Hoo Hoo
and the partial destruction OF the
Missouri building recently. The for.
mer was Immediately rebuilt.
No loss Of life has occurred during
the exposition from accidents.
The man probably most prominently
known In connection with the worlds
fair is the president, David r. Fran

final day should be designated as

buoyant in spirit and filed with a
unanimous desire to give expression
to good feeling; on the closing day
depression prevailed generally be-
cause the conclusion was at hand and
1t was a rather mournful assemblage
that formed solid phalanx around
the tall monument and listened to
the farewell addresses. There was
cheering. but 1t was the cheering of
final leave-taking and not the spon.

principal speeches delivered were by
