lndia's Hidden Wealth.

All the world knows that gold, silver
and gems are constantly disappearing
in India to swell the hidden stores of
the people. What no one knows is the
accumulated amount. The late Dun
ming Mcleod estimated that there
might be $1.50O. COCOON In hidden gold
alone. OF silver there may be even
more in proportion. as the silver rupee
has long been the common money cur

Married..

Mr.. John Manuel and Miss Rosie
Smith were married Tuesday even
ing at the M. E. church parsonage by
the Rev. Millikan. This announcement
will prove quite a surprise to their many
friends throughout the county. Mr..
Manuel was raised in this city from
childhood and has always been an up
right and hard working young man. He
has always followed the vocation of
mining and in that capacity we are glad
to say, has achieved success. He is at
present interested in two leases which
are paying him handsomely. About his
bride we Iknow nothing, but suffice it
to say that while she has been among
us an impression has been engraved
upon our minds as to her character and
true womanhood. She is of most low
able disposition, and as her partner
through life is one who is termed as a
prince and good fellow, will make her
helpmeet to be proud of, the Observer
extends to them, along with their many
friends, its best wishes that prosperity,
happiness and wealth will be their tread
of path through life. May the happiest
days of their past be the saddest of their
future.

Several of the boys who took in the
Queen city during the Fourth, brought
home all kinds of grievances. They
say that Denver treated them fine, but
the proprietors of hotels and rooming
houses did not use them well. Harry
Richards said that he returned with 4
family of seam squirrels and Perley Cox
claims bunch of cuckoos. Cuckoo Cox
and Squirrel Harry say that they will
not stop on Larimer street any more
when in Denver. Several of the other
boys claim that members of the bug
family were so plentiful that they had
to set up in chair all night. A look at
Cuckoo Cox will convince one of the
fact. Get off of Larimer street,

The Colorado Telephone company with
unusual enterprise and with a most
pleasing regard for its patrons and
friends, sent bulletins throughout the
state of the doings of the big conven-
ton in Denver. Every action taken by
the Democrats was sent out over phone
and the people We're kept reliably in
formed. The action of the phone peo-
pie in this connection was highly ap-
preciated and was taken as an indica-
ton that the Colorado Telephone com
pany is always ready and willing to
serve the people and favor them at a
time when the service is most needed.
1t would have been impossible for the
people to have gotten the reports of the
convention the moment the happenings
transpired, free of charge, from any
source other than the phone company.

no more inspiring spectacle than to
stand on the terrace and watch and hear
the salute fired from the citadel in honor
of the Prince Of Wales, and answered by
q roar from the guns of the battle-ships
that wakes the echoes of the far-away
Laurentian mountains.
By night the warships are outlined by

Although wholly admirable and
unique from scenic standpoint it must
be confessed that the celebration from
the standpoint of individual comfort was
execrable. Narrow streets, small squares.
old buildings, and steep hills are not
ideal conveniences for the entertain
ment Of a hundred thousand guests.
Those Of US who were lucky enough to
secure accommodations at Quebec's one
hotel OF distinguished merit the Chateau
Frontenac, had no cause for complaint.
Those who did not must have felt that
the city had not much changed since
the days Of Mother Mary Of the Incarna-
ton, who found that the inhabitants
grew fat and stout on ''nothing but
bread and eels." Prices were extortion-
ats. Two poorly furnished rooms in a
shabby house brought $l5 a night. A
cot bed Ia tent was g. The drivers of
tho "colsehe," Quebec's peculiar two
wheeled one-horse vehicle, demanded
eight times the legal fare. The police
arrangements were primitive. The few
trolley carr that ran were insufferably
crowded. When the platforms became
impossible rowdies made their exits and
their entrances through the car windows
TO the peril and disgust Of those who
had seats Every train carried a mob,
and neither trains or stations are up to
the American standard Of comfort or
convenience. The truth is the arrange
ments were totally inadequate, and many
Of the citizens, who depended on visitors
to make their celebration a success,
seemed determined to make it failure
by charging the visitor four times the
usual price for the privilege Of being
made more than ordinarily uncomfort-
able.
1t Ia to be hoped that the lesson of
these discomforts and extortions will
not be lost upon those having in charge
our own Champlain tercentenary next
year.
The exercises of Thursday, July %,
were OF special interest to Vermonters.
The day was devoted to honoring the
memory Of Champlain. who discovered
our own lake in 1909. In the morning
1000 soldiers, with many bands and
several companies OF killed Highlanders,
paraded the principal streets. The
Prince OF Wales aroused great enthusi-
