Leases ns Teller ususs.

A. Lipp has taken lease on the Tel
Ter house and will open the establish
ment the first of the month. He will
conduct the entire hotel-bar, dining
room and rooms. During the past month
or more considerable in the improve
ment line has been under way at the
large hostelry. All the rooms have been
thoroughly cleaned by the vacuum pro-
cess, the fixtures in the Office have been
repainted and the bar has been divided
and in the rear will be placed two finely
furnished conversation apartments. The
bar fixtures have been stained and on
the floor of the room inlaid linoleum of
an attractive pattern has been laid.
This part of the hotel has been improv-
ed greatly and is now one of the neatest
places of its kind in the county. Only
the patronage Of the better class of
trade is catered to in this department.
The hotel throughout is in better con-
dition than it has been since the large
structure was erected. Besides the
general renovation of the furnishings of
the rooms new baths and toilets are now
being placed in the upper floors and
other Improvements necessary to place
the hotel in first class shape are being
made. The hostelry will be conducted
under Mr.. Lipp's personal direction and
competent hotel men will be in charge
of each department. The cuisine furn-
ished the guests will be of the very best
and the most competent chefs to be had
will have charge of the kitchen. Situat-
ed as Mr.. Lipp is, being in a position to
furnish his own meats and other neces-
sites for the table it goes without say
ing that the patrons of the hotel will be
furnished in the dining room with the
very best the market affords. There
can be no question but that the new
proprietor will make success of the
business, which will mean much to Gen.
tral City.

An application for an injunction has
been filed in the district court by sew
eral concerns of Idaho Springs against
the Seaton Mountain Electric Light,
Heat & Power company, asking that
the company be enjoined from carrying
out its plans of shutting off steam heat
from the business houses that do not
use the electricity supplied by their

haust steam is used for the heating pur-
poses and that there are not enough
using the electricity furnished by the
company SO that the exhaust steam
is sufficient for heating and live steam
has to be turned into the pipes. The

Affection Between Senators.

There was sincere affection be-
tween the late Alabama senators. Nor.
gan and Pettus. It Is said that Pettus
adored Morgan. He looked up to him
As few men look up to other men.
When Morgan passed away the fading
old veteran lost all interest In life.
These things sound unbelievable. per.
haps. to q skeptical modern time. but
Morgan and Pettus did not belong to
a modern time. They were relics of
an elder age. They passed away al.
most together. The death OF one pre-.
ceded and. the Alabama men say.
brought about the death OF the other.
Together they lie in Selma, where,
side by side. they lived for 40 years.

THE ANrs, GOO TRADE.
Russian oathsrsr Has Insects Help
Him In Collecting.

Ants eggs come in the main from
Russia. They are the best food OBJ
tainable for gold hsh. and canaries
and other cage birds thrive on them
wonderfully. They cost about so
cents pint. In the forests Of south
ern Russia ant nests abound. The
Russian egg hunter does not do his
own collecting there-he makes the
poor ants do It for him. Selecting q
hot, sunny day. the man irst erects
little piles of twigs, dosen or more
Of them. near the thickest colonies,
and then he kicks open all the nests
in the neighborhood. The ants know
that their eggs, thus exposed to the
sun would be made sterile In q few
hours, and they take them up and
hurry to place them under the nearest
shelter. The nearest shelter Is. OF
course, the little pile OF twigs. and
under each Of these there are soon
heaped the eggs from q hundred
nests. The egg hunter. after q smoke
and a nap. has nothing to do but gath
er up his spoil and dump 1t in his
sack. He ships the eggs In hundred
weight bags. all over the world.

The precious form of the editor of
this semi-religious weekly was spilled
into the road yesterday. He was driv-
ing up from Black Hawk late in the af-
ternoon and took the upper road around
the Buell. mill. After the mill was
passed and on the level stretch where
the road joins Lawrence street the
spirited horse that was being driven
decided to show some of its racing
blood and unurged started on a dead
run. A carriage was going up the CEN
ter of the street and in order to avoid
collision with this the horse was
steered to the right. The space be-
tween the carriage and the wall of the
street was too narrow for the buggy to
pass and the right front wheel of the z
became lodged between a water pipe
and the wall in front of Harry Warren's .
house. When this happened the buggy
came to sudden stop, but the horse
jerked free from the cross bar holding
the singletree and went on up the street
to see about its oats. In the meantime
the driver Of the fleet-footed animal
was sailing over the dash board and
turning revolutions in the air. The
horse was uninjured, the buggy was
damaged slightly and the only injury
sustained by the writer was a few
bruises in the vicinity Of the crupper
bone when he hit the ground.
