The Capitol Building.

The capitol building of Colorado is worthy
of attention. 1t stands just one mile. or
$3.50 feet. above the level of the sea-a
stately building made of granite from the
Gunnison valley, with a narrow dome. oc-
cupying the highest point In the city and
surrounded by ample grounds ten acres,
equal to six city blocks. The grounds have
been laid with beautiful turf and planted
with thrifty young locusts. elms. lindens
and other trees. which, in a few years, will
be the glory of the state. In the rear OF
the building Is fine piece Of bronze by
Preston Powers. representing wounded
buffalo with an Indian warrior standing
over II. Surrounding the capitol grounds
rows of attractive homes-some OF the
most comfortable in the city-and the own
ers show commendable pride in keeping up
their turf and shrubbery.
Some of the ground upon which the CAPT.
tol stands was presented to the state by
the owners. The most generous giver, how
ever. changed his mind before the land was
needed and the state had to sue him to get
a title to the property.
E. E. Meyer of Detroit was the architect
of the building, and 1t cost S3,214, 600. The
corner stone was laid July 1. 1890. and 1t
was occupied in 1898. The design is Sc
verely plain. suggesting the Corinth,an
school. and the building is too high for its
length. If the basement were concealed by
terrace the proportions would be less SUBJ
ject to criticism. There are endorsement,
q full basement, three stories al 6 dome
which rises 273 feet above the ground. The
rotunda within the dome is $50 feet from
the lower floor, with a diameter Of forty
Ave feet and balconies projecting from the
walls. The rotunda and the rest of the in
terror have never been decorated. The
walls are done In yellow kalsomine.
Arrangement Of the Capitol.
The man who shows you around tells you
boastfully that all the material in the
building was furnished by Colorado, ex-
cept the glass. He says that they make
glass In Colorado. but not window glass

CHINA'S
AMERICAN
BOYCOTT

Pekin. June 1.-THE agitation and pro-
posed boycott OF American goods by
Chinese merchants is apparently based
upon a misconception by the Chinese OF
American intentions in regard to the ex-
clusion act. Both Chinese and Amerf-
cans are agreed upon the point that the
exclusion of coolies is not the chief mat
ter under consideration and that the act
deals with the treatment OF other classes.
Mr.. Rockhill. the American minister
has assured the Chinese that America 5
intentions are fair and conciliatory. and
the Chinese board OF foreign affairs is
apparently satisfied upon the subject.
The publice is somewhat alarmed, hence
the boycott
This movement is unlikely 10 attain
any serious proportions although II Is
significant. Indicating the Importance
which f. attached by the Chinese TO the
questions involved in the American ext
clusion act
The exclusion OF coolies from the Ha-
wailan and Philippine islands Is consid-
cred a hardship by the Chinese, who also
complain OF the treatment they exper-
ience at the hands OF the American Gus
tion's officers. Nevertheless there Is a
genuine desire upon the part OF the
Chinese government for a speedy and
amicable adjustment of the question at
issue.

CAPTAIN
PROTECTS
PASSENGERS

Halifax, N s., June H-According TO
Captain Scott OF the steamship Havana
which arrived here today from St Pierre,
MID. via North Sydney. he was Obliged TO
assert his rights as commander OF a Brit
ish ship In order 10 prevent large num-
Der OF excited citizens in the French port
from searching his vessel.
on board the steamer when she arrived
at North Sydney was a school teacher
named Gendrou. who had incurred the
displeasure OF many OF the ST. Pierre peo-
pie and who found opposition 10 him so
strong that he decided TO go 10 the United
States.
IT appears that the school master had
written to friends in France, regarding
certain resorts IN St Pierre and the let
ter was subsequently published in news
paper In the old country. The description
OF places in St Pierre greatly displeased
the citizens in that town who saw the let
ter in the French paper.
II is claimed that threats were made
against Gendrou and that he decided 10
leave the island hastily Sunday night Just
before the steamer sailed
Gendrou went on the steamer 10 take
passage TO the mainland. He said that he
feared that some of the people on shore
would injure him. Later I'm the evening n
crowd OF men boarded the Havana and
demanded that the captain hand over the
school master
Captain Scott says there was apparently
no officer or other person OF authority in
the mob which threatened 10 search the
ship and II necessary 10 break open the
stateroom doors
At this stage. Captain Scott says he de- 4
cided 10 address the crowd and assert his
rights as commander OF "A British ship.
He ordered the mob not 10 touch a pas
senger on his vessel without authority
and forbade them to break a door or
hatch.
Captain Scott told the crowd that seri-
Gus consequences would follow II they did
not accept his advice. He ordered the
crowd TO leave the vessel and after some
talk the men took their departure. While
the controversy was in progress crowds
OF women assembled on wharves In the
vicinity and assisted in intensifying the
excitement
Gendrou remained on board the Havana
and when the steamer reached North sgd
ney he left the boat and boarded a train
for the United States.
