AT THE HOTELS.

Simon Guggenheim who viii become Sen
ator Teller's colleague on the 4th Of
March came over from New York 10
Washington last evening. and went 10
the New Willard, where few personal
friends were expecting him. Mr. Gug-
genheim is a rehned-loOking man. with
derk hair. brown eyes, and regular fea-
ture His vast wealth has certainly not
given him any supercilious malner, his
bearing being that Of "a modest and IN
pretentious gentleman.
I'D be grateful" said he to a Herald
reporter, If you would not devote any
great space to me or seek an Interview.
I for, frankly speaking 1 think the press
/ has rather given me a supe-abundanee OF
Notice already. ! have taken this chance
I to come TO Washington 10 get acquainted.
! and perchaBee learn d few ideas or gov
eminent from first source. My greatest
ambition is TO serve the people Of Colo
RADIO to the full extent Of whatever abil-
/ ity possess. Our State is enjoying a
/ magnificent era Of prosperity, due 10 set
/ tied industrial conditions and the ascend
ency Of Republican principles, and II
! l can help IN the least degree TO a con
tinuation Of that happy situation, / shall
be satisfied"
Senator Guggenheim is one OF a re-
/ markable family Of seven brothers. HIS
/ father was born in Switzerland, and set
I tied in Philadelphia in 1S4s. removing To

eral Of the sons went West. Simon locat-

/ is well liked in the state that has hon
ored him. and in none Of the properties
| controlled by his family has there ever
/ been a strike. He gave the State School
/ Of Mines at Golden n very beautiful build
/ ing, that bears his name, and his dispOsi-
/ ton is said 70 be that OF a brOad-gauged,
/ liberal man. He has be active In poll
/ tics Cor fourteen years and has been Of
fered nominations for both governor and
! lieutenant governor by the Republicans
/ Mr. Guggenheim is happily married his
wife being OF the well-known Hirsh fam
/ lis Of New York, and they have one child.
/ boy Of two years.
1T can be said without boasting that
the old State Of Virginia is producing the
/ finest specimens Of saddle horses, hunters,
and jumpers that are being bred any
where in the Union" remarked Mr.. J. A.
/ Kennedy, a popular young man Of Stauu-
/ ton, Va, at the Metropolitan, Mr.. Ken
nedy's stock farm. the pride Of that inn
/ mediate section, being about the hand
/ soonest in the State.
/ "Our hunters are not only good % look
at but they have superior merit over even
/ the thoroughbreds Of Kentucky. Used 10
! the toughest sort Of roads, and going over
! hills and mountains continually, they be-
/ come tough and hardened. SO that they
can staEd the severest service. The
price Of good horses is very high. ANY
well-bred saddle animal, though Of small
size. will bring 500, and not long since I
sold a beautiful mare for 8. SO She was
not only large and finely trained buJ her
color was something extraordinary, about
the shade Of a SO gold piece. with long
white name and tail. Any odd color viii
add TO the value Of a hunter an iron
gray IS greatly liked, and a strawberry
roam is eagerly desired by all fanciers.
/ About the happiest man at the New
| willard last night was that Woodworking
I young Congressman from Ohio. Hon
I Harry Bann0n. Of Portsmouth. The
/ cause of his joyous mood was the allow
ance in the river and harbor bill Of
s.. 065 COO. an appropriation secured by the
joint efforts Of himself and COngressmeU
Hughes. OF West Virginia, and Bennett.
OF Kentucky. for building a lock and dam
at GanipOlis. Ohio
