Holmberg is Mining.

Hon. John Holmberg took time from
the rush of business to state that
the conditions at the Bellevue Hudson
mine were in first class condition and
that the smelling ore was averaging
from s25. to $500 per ton. They
are making an upr aise from the tunnel
to the old workings which will be COM
pleted in ten days or two weeks. 1t
was considered cheaper to do this that
to repair the old shaft. As soon as the
old slopes are reached there will be
large shipments. Holmberg and his
associates have been very persistent
in their development work and are
looking for good reward.

The concert given at the Methodist
church on Monday evening by the tai
ented company, the Menley Belle
Quartette of Chicago, was a very
pleasing event. Each member of
this company is an artist and the vo-
cal numbers were of more than ordi-
nary excellence. 1.-The Bells" number
showed the work of these skilled vo-
calists to the very best advantage and
imitation Of the bells was practically
perfect. Mr.. Zirkosky's reading was
greeted with fair sized audience but
the superior merit of the entertain
ment should have crowded the church
to overfowing.

Valuable Mineral Cabinet.


The Elks Lodge No. 607 of this city
is adding very attractive feature to
their possessions and one which will be-
come more interesting, valuable and
complete as the years come and go.
In their cozy and comfortable reception
room there has been placed beautiful
and large mineral and speci-
men cabinet for the purpose of
keeping in tact any donations of pre-
cious ores, relics of Importance, s0uve-
Mrs and badges that may be contribut-
ed by the different members. Already
many such adorn the shelves and the
list is being continuously augmented.
These are voluntary on the part of the
membership and yet each one should
make it his duty to find something of
such a worthy nature to place therein
as memento of his association with
this benevolent order. In after years
it will be a source of unalloyed pleasure
for members to recall by-gone COM
panionship as they look over these SOU
yenirs and think of the many happy
hours passed so pleasantly. 1t will be
none the less source of infinite graft
fication on the part of the coming gen.
erations to review the thoughtfulness
and expressed interest of their ances-
tors through the simple yet pertinent
custom. The historical as we'll as ma
terial benefits thereof will well repay
for such a collection as time will pro-
vide.

The Same Old Gana,

According to the reports of some of
the t'unterrihed" who met in Empire
last Saturday for democratic pow
WOW, there was fun galore and a dou-
BILE ring circus. One stated that the
principal part of the time was con-
sumed by Brethren O'Connell, Bonney,
Noxon and McAndrews in trying to
convince the convention that they
were the only Simon pure representa-
tives of democratic simplicity and SIM
pie democracy, There seems to be
ground for conjecture whether the
delegates elected to the state conven-
ton that will be held at Glenwood
Springs is Paterson, Speer or 'alf and
'alf. To the casual observer the COM
plexion of the delegation is decidedly
Speerish. However, it makes little
difference which is in the saddle, they
will be all riding bareback after the
November election. The boys had a
good time at Empire, chewed the rag
to their hearts content and parted in
apparent harmony. The following
were selected to represent the county
in the State convention. j j. Cough
lin, and Jerry Buckley, of Silver Plume,
Barney j. O'Connell, John Olds, and
Andy Sandberg, of Georgetown, John
W. West, of Alice, VIM. Broad, E. l..
Regennitter, V. l. Noxon, Z. C. Bon
ney and A. J. McAndrews, of Idaho
Springs. The delegates were instruct
ed to vote for no man or woman
as delegates to the National Demo
cratic convention unless they would
pledge themselves to vote for William
j Bryan for the presidential nominee,
first, last and all the time. A resolu-
ton instructing the county delegation
to vote for seating the Bailey dele.
cation was lost. A. j. McAndrews
of Idaho Springs led the fight all by
his lonesome for the resolution thus
