PALACES OF GREAT RULERS.

No monarch in the world cXcels the
Car of Russia in the splenior Of his
palaces. Tsarkoe, e St. Peters
burg, where the emperor has been
staying recently, has Il park around it
which is eighteen miles in circumfer-
ence.
One room of the palace has walls Of
iapis laZuli and Il floor of ebony inlaid
with mother of pearl. Another has
walls of amber curiouSly carved, and
the walls of a third are laid thick with
gold.
In the throne room Of the palace of
the Shah of Persia there is a carpet SO
thlckly SoWn with pearls that the text
ure Of the cloth can hardly be seen.
Near 1t is the throne of carved wood,
studded With jewels valued at $780,
coo.
Near the throne stands a huge silver
vase set with pearls and turuuoises,
but, strange TO say, alongside OF it
stands d cheap European painted urn,
such as can be bought anywhere for a
dollar.
The Shah has curious ideas about
the value of things, and on the walls of
one room a painting by one Of the old
masters hangs side by side with a
saudy poster advertising Il dealer in
fish hooks
And everywhere about the palace are
cats. The Shah has Il specimen of
NNSiS tlllt VI til ol WHICH ne mas ever
heard. and there is hardly Il country
that is not represented in the feline
army which ii is the pleasure of the
Persian ruler to maintain.
10 take care of this ~asselnblage of
cats there is d corps of well paid Off
cials.
Te palace of the emperor of Abys-
sinia is a large building, built like a
Swiss chalet, with a red tiled root and
whiteWashed walls. 1t is d very ordi-
nary affair, and is surrounded by huts
and other inferior buildings. There is
nothing splendid about the palace or
It's furnishing, and, indeed. 1t would be
considered as quite lacking in every
thing except size as a residence for an
American of moderate means.
But 1t Is the palace Of an emperor,
nevertheless. and of a powerful one,

Bird EIocution.

Dan Beard in May Recreation: The
blue jay is a great elocutionist and
gives utterance to many unlooked-fo1
remarks, but the one most often heard
in the woods relates to the possession
IF a chee-tidley-enk. Just exactly what
sort of a creature o. thing this is no
one can tell, but whenever l am in
the wood | hear the jays exclaim
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES him" To which
the meadow lark in the pasture clear
ing replies. "Oh-so-cheap." with a most
sarcastic drawl on the 50 and an in
Election or the cheap. AS a rule the
meadow lark says his say while perch
ed on a fence post and he talks with
his mouth wide open. There are a lot
of little people In thickets Who are al
ways in such a hurry and talk so fast
that 1t is difficult TO tell what they saw.
There is that gayly colored little fell
low, the red start, crying, 'T-wet Wee
whisatt," and the dainty
summer yellow bird. who has some
thing to say in the same line and
much in the same manner Wha. he
wants is wheat and although he never
eats it his constant cry Is Wheat,
wheat, wheat, T'weat wheat. wheat,
wheat"

The Victoria Mining Company
are making preparations to begin
work on their properties in the
Continental Divide as soon as the
snow goes off sufficiently topermit
of getting in to the ground. l.. G
Nelson, who was in town the first
of the week, says the company is
now selling treasury stock at ten
cents a share to raise money to do
development work. He also says
that the company has secured
money sufficient to pay all of its
Indebtedness and to do a large
amount of development work. He
believes the company has some

Matters to Mean Road From
Lyons West.

Gone hears a great deal of talk
about the Colorado & Southern

Cheyenne, to connect with the
Cheyenne and Northern branch.
| don't believe a word of such
talk continued the speaker, a
man known to be well up in rail
road matters.
"Why should they" he contin-
ued, build north to Cheyenne? 1t
is true they could reach the G. Il
n, but what would they have
when they got there? Their ter
minus would be Grin Junction,
and there is nothing there to make
a railroad terminus. The fact is
the G. Il 5. will build west if they
build anywhere.

TRANSFER
COAL MINES
A. Phillips Sells Mine
to A. j. Chidister and
w. @. SayImons.
WILL NOT RAISE The PRICE
New Owners to Open Mines in Proper
Shape and Supply Saratoga and
Encampment With Coal.

On Monday j. A Phillips sold
out his interest in his coal mines,
the Phillips mine, fifteen miles
down the river on the east side.
and the McCoid mine, % miles
northwest of here on the west
bank of the river, to A. j. Chides-
ter of Encampment, and w. G..
Sammons, the T.. p. agent at Wal
colt. In addition to the two mines
purchased, Mr.. Summons filed on
100 acres of land in addition to
the land gotten from Mr.. Phillips.
MI. Chichester will have charge
of the work of mining the coal.
He authorize sci NE to say that there
will be no increase in the price of
coal, either at this place or at en-
campment, but the price will be
put down to even a lower rate
than it has sold for at times, es-
pecially at Encampment, where
coal has been as high as S13 per
ton during famine times. Mr..
Chichester says all the talk about
getting a corner on coal and rails
ing the price, or compelling the
people to buy Rock Springs coal,
is nonsense. They will do moth
ing of the kind.
1t is the> intention of the new
company to open up the mines
and mine the coal and haul it to
Encampment and Saratoga during
the summer months, as the work
a be done then so much easier,
and at so much less cost. The
coal is to be stored and sold dur
ing the winter at even less than
consumers would have to pay were
it necessary to mine and haul it in
the winter.
A force of men is now at work
developing these mines and they
are to be put in irst-class shape
as soon as possible.
Mr.. Chichester has raised the
price of coal to 81 per ton at the
mines and the price has risen 81
per ton in Saratoga. This does
not look very encouraging for
cheap coal to Saratoga people.

FIRST GAME OF TENNIS.

The first game of Tennis ever
played in Saratoga was pulled off
last Saturday. There was much
enthusiasm manifested by the
members Of the club and they de-
clared, one and all, that the sport
was going to be very attractive.
The continued wet weather has
interfered with the work of pre-
praing the grounds very much, and
the boys are scanning the skies
with much solicitude. 1t is be-
lieved that the ground will harden
up nicely and prove that the spot
selected is well adapted to the
game. There is much talk in
dulged in concerning balls and
bats, and a lot of other lingo be-
yond the comprehension of all ex-
cept the initiated.

NEW JUSTICE OF THE PEACE.

The resignation of Judge Greene
and the appointment of D. E.
Windsor to fill the vacancy comes
as a surprise to our people. Judge
Greene gave excellent satisfaction,
but as he never craved the office

ing business, he sought the first
opportunity to step to one sidei
There is no doubt but what Judge
Windsor will make an excellent
peace officer, as he is a general

THE SUN SHINES FOR ALL.

Il When questioned about the
work of the smelter at Encamp-
ment Mr.. Hum said: "We intend
to start the mill-the crusher--
next week. The smelter will be
started the 10th of May. We i'll.
tend to turn out a car load of bis
ter copper per day and the Trans
portation Company intend TO haul
it to the road.
During the winter, while the
plant vas shut down, we have had
about $1,000 worth of machinery
added to it. The most of this has
been in the shape of a large Han
cock jig, two Bradley CHILEAN re-
grinding machines, with twelve
Frue vanner tables, to use on the
finer product in the crushing
plant.
"We have also made many
changes about the furnaces. in
creasing the capacity of them
nearly one third over last season."
Mr., Hum looks ruddy and
strong after his winters rest. He
said he hated to leave the east and
come out here to again plunge in
to work, but he said, we must
open this country up and make of
it a delightful place to live in, as |
know we can when We get a rail
road in here
