Fashionable Wedding al Apex.

Judge Flor Ashbaugh drove to Apex
Tuesday evening where he soiemnized
the marriage of Frank Jos. Joerg, of
Randall, Kan, to Miss Luella M. Field.
The wedding occurred at the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry S. Grannis in the
presence of forty of the acquaintances
of the bride. The Grannis home was
beautifully decorated for the occasion
with cut flowers and ferns. An elaborate
supper was served after the ceremony,
Judge Ashbaugh presiding as toast
master. The guests repaired to the
town hall in Apex after supper and dane
ing was INDUCED in until late hour.
Mr. Frank Jos. Joerg, the groom, is
promising young man of his town in
Kansas where he is engaged in farming.
The bride has only been resident OF
Apex short time, but during the brief
period she has been residing in that
community has won the popularity OF
all. After remaining in Apex short
time, bidding farewell to their friends,
| the couple will depart for Kansas to re-

Denver Post of Tuesday had the follow

John Hansen Dies in Denver.

The body of John Hansen, who died
in Denver Saturday last of miners con-
sumption and dropsy, was shipped to
this city yesterday morning for burial.
The funeral will be held this afternoon
at o'clock from the undertaking par
lors OF E. l.. Harris.
John Hanson is another of the old
timers to be called to the Great Beyond
and with his passing the ranks of the
old pioneers are lessened one more. He
had been resident of Gilpin county
thirty. seven years, having located in
this section in the year 1868. He had
mined constantly since that time and
while following that vocation had amass-
ed two or three fortunes, all of which he
spent in trying to accumulate more. At
the time of his death he had very little
money, but from appearances was in a
position to recover some of his lost
wealth in his lease on the Pagan vein Of
the Gunnell property, which is produc-
ing good ore, when he succumbed
to the disease which invariably claims
those following the miners profession.
The deceased was of very eccentric
disposition and at all times preferred TO
be alone. He was never married and the
only survivors are sister and brother,
the former residing in Kansas City and
the latter in Washington.

In the senate the day was given to

Senator Nottingham's bin to close

ably viii be postponed. and new bill
will be introduced to, make 1t felony
for saloonman or any one else to per-
init woman to enter saloon. That,
at least. Is the understanding Of the
case at the present time.
When the bill came up for final pas.
sage yesterday afternoon. Senator Not
tingham spoke in favor OF it, ANA said
that his measure was intended to pro.
tect young girls. who might be induced
to enter saloons by side doors when
they would not do so by the front door.
Senator Rand said that he did not
oppose the ideas OF the speaker, but
ne thought the object might be attained
in another manner, He spoke Of the
fact that in many towns where the
Sunday law is only partially obeyed.
the front doors are closed. and entrance
is gained only by the side door. He
said that he would willingly support
bill making It felony for a woman
to be permitted inside saloon. Sen.
ator Malarkey spoke in similar vein.
and with that understanding Senator
asked that his measure be
re-referred to the committee on edu-
cation.

In summing up the situation the

accompanied the strike as labor wea

"The fault lies In the organization OF
the union which allowed the strike to
be determined by a committee instead
OF by referendum, and the faults in the
organization of the citizens alliance
were in allowing irresponsible mobs to

the peace of the 'counties in Colorado
