More Capitalists Arrive.

A party of easterners to the number
of about twenty, were arrivals Friday
morning to inspect the properties of
the Fifty Gold Mines company. Most
of the gentlemen were stockholders in
the Fifty company while others were
only prospective investors. They were
all pleased with the condition of the
mines and mill and felt that the Fifty
proposition was money-maker. Upon
their return to Denver Friday evening a
banquet was rendered the gentlemen at
the st. Francis hotel.
James F. Lewis of New York, presi-
dent of the Fifty Gold Mines company,
who had charge of the party. claimed
that the gentlemen in the party repre-
sented more actual capital than any
similar crowd that had visited the state
in some time. Mr.. Lewis in an inter-
view regarding the large proposition of
which he is at the head, said:
1.-The Fifty gold mine is combination
of that many smaller mines, of which
the Gregory and Bobtail mines, two of
the Oldest and most valuable in the state,
are included. Already S25, 900, 900 has
been taken from these mines, and, while
they are quite up to the usual standard
of gold mines, it is our intention to en-
list more capital and put them far ahead
of anything in the country. We are 60
ing to raise s4OO, 900 among this party
with which to put in desulphurizing
plant and electrical machinery Of the
most improved pattern. The old men,
bers of the company know what it is,
and this is only pleasure trip for them;
but those who are not already investors
are ready to become such in any amount
that is needed"

Work on Hall Road PROGRESSING.

R. A. Hall was in from the grade
camp Of the Hall Construction company
Tuesday. He said the work on the road
was progressing slowly but surely and
that at present over mile and half
of the grading had been finished. Mr..
Hall had just returnedlfrom trip to a
number of the central states where he
raised sufficient funds to go ahead with
the grading for some little time. 1t is
Mr.. Halls object to push the first four
miles as fast as possible and get the
steel down. This will bring the line to
the Perigo wagon road and from this
point the company will be in position
to get considerable business. The pro-
moter is well satisfied with the success
he is meeting with in interesting eastern
capital in the venture and says that as
soon as he can get few more miles of
grading finished and the track laid, he
will have no trouble raising the neces-
sary funds for the completion of the
road.

Ffaternal Union Entertainment.

Tuesday evening at the Odd Fellows
hall most delightful entertainment
was held by the Fraternal Union of
America. An extended program was
rendered, consisting of vocal and instru-
mental selections. Messrs. Thos. Mitch
ell and John G. Williams, in their ini-
mitable style, delivered several pieces
from the works of the standard auth
ors. Their efforts, needless to say, were
greatly appreciated by the audience. j..
c. Beck, state organizer for the Fra
ternal Union, made very interesting
talk on the lodge work. Refreshments,
consisting of sandwiches, coffee, ice
cream and cake, were served. There
were at least $50 people present and
these enjoyed themselves to the fullest
extent. Next week Mr.. Beck will re-
turn to the city and endeavor to streng-
then the mem mbership Of the local lodge.

has just been opened up. When the

back of the Eldorado. o. @. Beckwith
is manager and H. F. Lynch, a prac-
teal mining man in every respect is
experimenting operations.
John Cox, who has been mining in
Cripple Creek of late, has taken hold of
a portion of the Bates-Hunter group
and is arranging to start operations at
once. A good-sized shaft house will be
built and in this will be installed an ell
ectric hoist of large capacity. The
shaft through which the property will
be worked is 300 feet deep. This is to
be sunk deeper and new ground will be
worked. The Bates-Hunter has been
idle since 1885 and at one time produced
some very rich ore. Twenty-Five years
ago, Mr.. Cox worked with his father in
this mine and both made good money.
E. H. Teats intends to start the Rails
County on Quartz hill and is making ar
rangements with that object in view.
This mine after period of idleness of
over 80 years, was started up in the
latter part of 1905. A new plant of
machinery was put in and the mine at
once started to produce heavily. The
main shaft is down over 700 feet and
extensive work has been done in the
3OO-foot level. In the early history of
the camp, the Rails County produced
very good ore, some of it running over
$50 to the ton. G. w. Gage was sup
erintendent when the mine was started
the last time and only worked it little
over year, his other interests calling
him back east. Mr.. Teats is a mining
man of vast experience, having sought
the precious metal in all quarters of the
globe, and is in position financially to
make big proposition of the Rails
County.

tees on Monday. Norman Morrison,
Gertrude Morgan and Florence johnson
were appointed as committee to con-
fer with the various parties interested
in furnishing and decorating the recep-
tion room. Helen Hibbett, Frank Nor

enrolment will be to induce new stu
dents to enroll in the high school. Any
one knowing boy or girl who should be
in the high school will render the school
service by informing any member of
this committee. This applies to young

The Colorado Springs high school foot
ball team has held the interscholastic
championship of Colorado for two years
n nd hn oth L,@ 81
that they are afraid to make dates for
games. Not being able to match
game for Saturday last, the manager
phoned to Central City for game, Of
fering to pay all expenses and also offer
ing to pay bonus to Idaho Springs to
postpone the game at that place. The
offer was accepted with the thought
that, although the team was sure to be
defeated, the game with a first class
team would be valuable practice and the
trip to the Springs would be one to be
remembered. The boys left Central on
the Friday evening train and arrived in
Colorado Springs about eleven O'Clock
the same evening. On Saturday morn
ing they enjoyed an automobile ride
through the Garden of the Gods, not
only noting the wonders of that beauti-
full place, but making geology lesson
of it as well. The Colorado Springs
boys are fine set of fellows and treat
ed their visitors to every courtesy in
their power. The keys of the Alamo
hotel were turned over to them school
board and faculty of the high school
helped to make their stay pleasant, and
outside of the smart of defeat they have
every reason to remember with pleas
ure their visit to Colorado Springs. No
one was injured during the game, and
although during the first part of the
game, the Springs team had running
match, for the last eight minutes the
Central team presented line that the y
held unbroken to the end of the game.
The practice was rather hard on the
reputation of the team but was exceed
ingly valuable nevertheless. La Junta
was defeated by Pueblo few weeks
ago by record score and it looked as if
La Junta's name might be Dennis for
the rest of the year, but La Junta de-
feated Lamar last week by score of 4C
to 0, and-well, we hope to be able to
give the moral to this story after the
Idaho Springs game next Saturday. &c
over with the Boosters and help make il
right.

Unmistakable ssUndesirables., 2,

We want no people in this country
who regard their native land as of SUI
prelne Importance and who devote their
time and money to other objects than
the good Of the country of their adop-
ton. Men who are disposed to con-
slider Chinese institutions as superior
to ours, or liberty lovers who fancy
that the struggles Of Armenia are a
vital matter or warlike persons who
think fealty to the mikado the main
thing, are not wanted here, and their
presence in large numbers must prove
a menace to our Institutions
Oriental peoples, whether from China
or Armenia, when they reach this coun-
try show strong disposition to form
cliques or companies to perform acts
which disregard our laws. The Chi
nese are especially contemptuous Of
our mode Of dispensing justice and
whenever possible they administer a
code Of their own which satisfies them
far better than anything we are able
to provide. The Armentans appear to
be built on the same lines. They main
tain revolutionary committees which
assess the rich Of their race who have
made their home in the United States,
and if the latter fail to respond they
are assassinated 1t looks like plain
murder to US, but doubtless they con-
slider that they have as good a right to
regulate their own affairs as we have.
and they act accordingly. Immigrants
whose minds operate along these lines
are certain to recruit the ranks of 'un-
desirable citizens" and to do it speed.

PAVEMENT CLEANING

The question Chow to clean brick
paving" has been one of absorbing
interest in Kenosha for the past ten
years. This summer it seemed as
though the question had been an
swered when the authorities took to
washing it off with the old fire hose,
but another phase of the question has
popped up. 1t has been asserted that
bricks laid in sand, the way the Keno
sha pavements are, ought not to be
treated IN that manner. This ques-
ton was brought up when an objec-
ton was raised by some of the resi-
dents of the newly paved Park street.
Park street paving was being washed
in the usual manner much to the
distress of some of the re sidents of
and protested to the Mayor, and he
ordered the washing discontinued on
Park street. Investigation of the
subject shows that the washing sys-
tenn is carried on all over the country
where brick pavements abound, but it
is also dicovered that in most cases
where this system is used the bricks
are laid in concrete or cement so that
the force of the water coming from
the hose does not wash between the
bricks.
In Kenosha all of the pavenents
have been laid in sand, and it is
claimed that the sand is washed from
around the bricks, thereby weakening
the pavement and allowing the bricks
to constantly chip off. Undoubtedly
this is true to a certain extent, but
Just how much damage or how much
the life of the pavement is shortened
it is hard to state. City Engineer
Moth claims that this mode of clean
ing the pavement, if kept up, will
seriously injure them unless the
bricks are laid in cement mixture Of
some kind. This brings us back t.
the old question again, How can ou1
brick pavements be properly cleaned!

HIGH SCHOOL FRATERNITIEs

The superintendent of schools an
nonnces the determination of the
Board of Education to enforce strictly
its regulation against the High school
fraternities. When the doors open on
Tuesday morning each High school
principal will have his instructions.
Every member of secret society is
to be barred from all public recogni-
tion, being ineligible to take part in
any contest, literary, journalistic,
athletic.
The decision to make rule Of the
kind was the result of careful study
of the situation and comparison of
opinions of many who have spent
years in teaching. The sentiment is
overwhelmingly against the societies
as disturbing elements in school life.
They are a constant source of diff
Guilty in administration. They exert
an evil influence on their members so
far as scholarship is concerned.
Their moral influence is questioned
more and more as occasional evidence
of misconduct crops out here and
there.
The school officials have been
handicapped in their efforts to ex-
terminate the societies because of the
attitude of some of the parents. who
have secured injun ctions to prevent
the enforcement of the regulations of
the Board. If the case in the appel
late court is decided soon, as it ought
to be, and that decision is in favor of
the school authorities, then there
should be thorough work done in
wipiug out an evil influence which
has gained a hold in the schools,
much to the detriment of that spirit
of democracy which should be the
dominating element in the institu-
tions supported by public taxation
and open to the children of all.
Pending the decision of the Court
the rules of the Board, which have
been a mockery for three years
should be rigid1y enforced. 1t is in
tolerable that few boys and girls
should set at defiance the authority
which ought to CONTROL Chicago Tri-
bune.

The Artist and the Man.

In endeavoring to fix Richard Mans
fields place In the world of dramatic
art there is difficulty, as he cannot very
well be compared with any one else
certainly not with Edwin Booth, whose
methods were wholly different. Mr..
Booth, although sometimes appearing
in comedy, was essentially tragedian
and was tragic even in his mirth. 1t
was not SO, however, with Mansfield.
who, while at intervals delighting to
play tragedy and always ambitious to
excel in it. was yet distinctively a CO
median. 1t was in comedy that all his
real successes were achieved, from the
first great night when he astonished
the public with Baron Chevrial to that
when, unsuspectingly, he took leave of
the stage in Ibsen's Peer Gynt The
list of his roles is amazing Garrick,
Kenble, Kean and Irving played in
their time many parts, but Mansfield
excelled them all. The still more mar
velous thing Is that he acted all his
repertory SO well, giving each part it's
separate identity and fixing it in a
niche Of it's own for the memory of
those who love the players art.
Memories of Mansfield are memories
of great actor who did not trife with
his public He gave it of his best. His
interpretations of men as whimsical as
life itself, men in the grip of circum-
stances, as are we all, broadened the
minds and deepened the insight of
those who accepted the interpretations
in the spirit in which the artist con-
ceived them. Mansfield had read life
with the eye of fatalist, yet his cour-
age was of such high order that fail
ures merely spurred him on to further
efforts. Is such man an egotist or a
faithful bondman of art striving to de-
liver in the best manner the message
which has been intrusted to him and
which it is desirable that all should
know? In the case Of Mansfield those
who knew him best unhesitatingly de-
clare that he sought to implant truth
and understanding in mems souls by
way of fulfilling his calling upon this
earth

had rendered services to the Board
while a member but that he never
rendered bill.
AS the commissioner sat down there
was a dead calm fell over the meeting
which was broken by Mr.. Threinen
who asked if he could lawfully re-
move his shades from the school
building. He was told that he could
but that he could not under the law
collect for taking them down or put
ting them up. Threinen said he h lad
put in some glass and that he would
have to go over and break out the
windows and allow some one else to
make something by putting them in.
The attorney failed to vouchsafe
the right to the commissioner to take
such steps.
This ended the formal discussion,
but later Cavanagh moved that
Threinen be given the right to with
draw his bill so that he would lose
none of his rights. This was carried
and the meeting adjourned. It was
after the meeting adjourned that the
real interesting time came. The
members hung about the room like
summer boarders waiting for train
on the last day of summer and Com
missioner Williams amused them by
giving his opinion of the law. It was
evident that Mr.. Williams was of the
opinion that the bill should be paid
and he expressed this opinion in such
strong and vigorous language that
some of the members of the Board
gasped. Williams admitted that he
had been a member of the Board for
sixteen years and declared that he
did not give a (entirely too pictures
que for newspaper) for the law.
That ended the after session and
while some members started or home
Commissioner Williams fingered be-
hind and made arrangements with
another member of the Board to do
some repairs at the Central building.
When he presents the bill for the
work, but there the meeting was only
called to consider the Threinen bill
and none of the members of the Board
are anxious to cross any other bridge
till they get to it.
Developments are still in order and
something may drop before the Board
meets again.
Commissioner Threinen stated in
an interview this morning that his re-
ference to breaking windows last
night was all in the way of a joke and
that he had no intention of carrying
the joke further. He stated that all
that was left for him to do was to re
move the shades from the buildings
and that he would do this as soon as
possible. In this case it will be me-
cessary for the Board to let the con-
tract to some other dealer.
