For over three years residents living
on Pine Slope and up Soda Creek as
well as citizens of Idaho Springs who
were, prior thereto, accustomed -
drive past the reservoir along Simpson
Boulevard and connect with the county
road at the south end of the Boule-
ward have been waiting patiently for
it to be opened up once more This
was done on Monday by committee
consisting of Commissioners Ellis and
Jones representing the county and
and City Clerk Chas. Brandstetter,
Alderman A. E Straub and Marshall
James O'Rourke representing the city
who went to the place where the boule
ward had been closed up, took down
the fence and condemned the right of
way at the same time posting no
tees warning parties not to obstruct it
again. People driving up to the res
ervoir or having hauling to do on the
the Pine Slope addition can now make
the loop without having to reverse.
This driveway will be cleaned up in
good shape and will once more become
popular evening drive.

Bruce Lode Leased.

Charles Jaynes, George C. Weber,
both of Denver, and w. S. Mahr, of
Hildreth, Nebraska, have taken a lease
and bond on the Bruce lode mining
claim and have begun putting the shaft
in working order. This is down about
$50 feet but as it has not been used for
several years it will require
considerable retimbering and renovat-
ing The Bruce is good property and
as it has been drained by the Perkins
tunnel there will be no trouble from
water in conducting operations by the
means of the shaft. The work will be
snperintended by Mr.. Jaynes who is a
thoroughly experienced mine operat-
or and has managed some excellent
properties. The other gentleman are
wide awake business men and it is
not difficult to fortell good results from
their energy and business tact.

Not Even n Flag Station

There was considerable dissapoint-
ment last Saturday owing to the failure
of the ''sunset special" to stop at this
point to take on the passengers who
had bought tickets for the Argen-
tine Central trip up Mt. McClelland.
AS far as can be learned it was simply
an innocent misunderstanding. The
party issuing special instruction to the
agent here in regard to the sale of tic
kets for this train supposed that the
train would stop here without any spe-
cifc instructions while the operating
department having no necessity to stop
the train for orders or passing, and
knowing nothing in regard to the
passengers who had bought tickets,
sent the train through. The matter
has been as much of an annoyance to
the officers of the Gray's Peak Route
as it was to the disappointed pleasure
seekers. Those who purchased their
tickets had their money promptly re-
funded after the train went rushing
through.

Springs Owners Here

NC. Merrill one of the largest stock
holders in the Idaho Springs Sanitar-
ium company now of Chicago but for
merly of this place spent several days
here during which time meeting of
the stockholders of the company
was held. The directors for the en-
suing year are as follows: N. c.
Merrill. G. S. Redd, Miss A G.
Hazen, E. NJ. Hawkins and
H. H. Merrill. Among the other bust
ness transacted was the authorization
of the sale of the springs and other
property pertaining thereto, provided
favorable terms can be made. 1t was
also decided to make some i'm
provements in the event that speedy
sale is not made. There is ample room
for such improvements and if made on
a plan coextensive with the needs it
will be most welcome by the many
patrons of the springs. Mr.. Merrill
was asked by a representative of
the Siftings-News about the sale of
the property but he was non-commit-
tal remarking that the reports seem
to indicate more about the sale than
he did. If the plans that Mr..
Merrill outlined year ago to the
writer could be carried out without
delay, the city would feel very much
gratifed and would result in an extend
ed patronage from all over the coun-
try and an excellent income. 1t is
hoped the finances of the company will
soon permit of these improvements.

Seeks Health Abroad

Several months ago r. J. Davies,
familiarly known as "Dick,' went to
England and Wales in order to regain
health and strength. After remaining
there about four months he returned
several weeks ago feeling considerably
improved and with the hopes that in
a short time that the bloom of perfect
health would again mantel his cheeks.
In this he was disappointed and his con-
dition grew worse until he decided to
return to Wales and remain there IL.
definitely aiming to get entirely re-
stored. He took the train this morn
ing for his voyage across the Atlantic.
Mr.. Davis leaves behind host Of
friends whose best wishes will accom-
pany him, with an earnest prayer fer
speedy recovery and happy return
here. By his uniform courtesy, his
gentle demeanor and affable manner
he has won lots of loyal friends,
while his attention to business and his
earnestness in behalf of his employers
have won for him their lasting graft
tude. He has been connected with the
First National Bank of this city for
years and earned his promotion to the
position OF assistant cashier by his mer-

Burns.Mo Moore PUSHING

The progress that has been made il,
the Burns Moore tunnel since the work
has been resumed under the efficient
management of Wes. Cannady, has
been of the most satisfactory nature
Notwiths tanding the drawback that
was experienced in encountering the
large flow of water at times the push
ing ahead of the tunnel has been all
that could be expected. The driving
began in June and up to present writing
the breast has been advanced 23S feet
and now with dry ground to work in
the advance will be more rapid Mr..
annady expects to drive at least four
ty four feet additional this month maxi
ing the total for August, l25 feet.
Many mines will be drained by this en-
prise and it will prove boo for them
all. Every encouragement should be
gwen these large tunnel propositions
for they are solving the question
of drainage which has not only been an
impediment in the way of shaft mining
but also heavy expense. The Burns
Moore tunnel along with many other
of the tunnels is solving this problem.

Preparing to Boost

Percy Alsdorf, the wide awake, push
ing and business secretary of the Gil
pin county Chamber Of Commerce is
putting the finishing touches on an il
lustrated booklet of that county that
will be hummer. 1t will contain about
two hundred cuts OF the various mines,
mills and shaft houses of the entire
county and in addition about thirty six
pages of reading matter pertaining to
the mining industry. The book is not
confined to any particular town or camp
but is comprehensive and takes in the
entire county as unit.
Clear crecl. county should have an
organization along the same lines that
would take in all the mining camps
such as Silver Plume, Georgetown. En-
pire, Freeland, Lawson, Dumont Alice,
Yankee, Idaho Springs and the sur
rounding sections Of the county. BY
such an organization a booklet could be
published that, while benefiting the en-
tire county, it would at the same time
benefit each locality. In fact each
camp and town would strengthe and
reinforce it's neighbors. The Gilpir
county booklet aalone will cost some.
thing over $12O0, and this is only bag
atelle compared with what it will bring
in. This is only part of the expense
that the Little Kingdom of Gilpin' is
going to in order to set forth the rich.
ness of it's mines and the inducements
that are offered capital to invest there.
Clear Creek county towns and camps
should ''get together, pull together anc
stay together" In such united actions
there would be financial strength. A
county organization will be prolific OF
big financial results and the expense
would be much less than by the indie
pendent action of each locality. Such
cooperation should be heartily concurree
in and thus cement the mining interests
in one united whole as well as to bring
the different sections into more hearty
accord and friendly associations.

Pikers Win Again

With score of IA to 6 against them,
the Electricians of Denver, who man
aged to tie the strong Piker team sew
eral weeks ago yielded the contest of
last Sunday to the latter in the eighth
inning.
The local team had everything going
their way from the first and plainly
showed their superiority over their OPP
ponents in batting as well as in field
work. Both Graham and Mitchell
pitched A No. ball and the support
given them would be creditabe to any
team. The hits were reasonably kept
down, but Chapeloni was able to locate
one of Graham's benders in the fifth
inning and straighten it out for a homer
Bonner's pets seemed to hold the teach
ngs of the seventh commandment in de-
tiance and made base stealing special
ty. Ducky and Graham were the chief
reprobates. Willie Cooper gath red in
his share of the honors by obtaining
three successive clean hits each time
when the bases were occupied by two
or more of his fleet footed associates
who were eagerly waiting for his as
sistance and during the game no less
than five men crossed the rubber afte r
his performance on the deck.
Besides the spectacular ball playing
other excitment galore was furnished
the spectators in the shape of heated
arguments and manyother ostentations.
The grandstand was taxed to its
utmost capacity and an unusual amount
of roofing was engaged in at this
game. Judging by the enthusiasm
in general Idaho Springs may proud
ly boast of having as many ardent sup
porters OF the National Pastime as any
other town of the same size in the
state.

Newhouse Tunnel Affairs

II will not be long bef ore work will
begln in driving the Newhouse tunnel.
Near,y all the properties affected have
beer signed up and the money is in
hand to push the project to a successful
termination. This will mean the open

which are now idle owing to the
wafer conditions. 1t will mean also
WORT for many miners and larger
shipments for IdahoS prings.
While it is desirous that all persons in
terested should sign liberal contracts
who have properties along the pro
posed extension yet it is not the inten-
tion that the work shall be retarded
owine to very few, perhaps three or
four, who may hold out. They should

are persons who want to profit at the

pose that the many shall be dscommod-
