about costumes Let me tell you. You
going to take vacation and that's all! You sit here
in the dark theater and cough your lungs away and
you die who will the unions blame for it? Herr Knobel,
you bet! You're going to the Catsks you scamp, you
hear and-there you'll drink milk and eat eggs and
get the fresh air, and-thats ALL"
Yek was silent He shrugged his shoulders after
Herr Knobe1 had left and turned to his work.
Herr Knobel enjoyed vacation of four weeks. He
returned to the Yiddsh Rialto with well tanned COM
plexion and trife corpuent. He had tasted of
chile in the open air, and refreshed
Yekl raised his head and greeted his employer with
wan smile. "How de do, Herr Knobe?' he MUIR
INJURED.
"Still here you imbece!" said Herr Knobe as he
passed into his office
Yekl's cheeks sunken, his eyes watery, and his
mouth seemed wider than ever When Herr Knobel
returned from his office to the cosumers he said

how it looks. Your clothes hang like bags you You

There was no opening for discussion. Yek was awed
into silence by Herr Knobel's determination Zhulik

people should always be on the move.
I've lived on Chrystie-st., on Hester,

coughing stifled his apology.
As the great Yiddish tragedian was
- leaving the city for the summer
he encountered YeH in the alleyway
of the theater. He looked him over
and frowned. He placed one hand on
YeN's shoulder and asked:
@Maybe you too are going away for
the summer Is it in the Mountains
@Aie, Herr Knobel, what are you
thinking of? Where should l go in the
mountains?' Yekl inquired, blinking
his eyes. Better for me to watch the
theater and fix up your old costumes
Believe me, if you spent few dollars
once for new costumes, it wouldn't do
the theater business any HARM"
"Ah, so,' murmured Herr Knobel,
stroking his chin where the stage
boards were wont to hang. @Don't you

ORCHESTRA CONCERT.

grand concert will be given in
the opera house Friday, August 9th.
By the Central City Philharmonic or-
chestra. The admission charge will
be 25scents.
Perhaps the community has not
been apprised of the fact, but Gem
trail City can boast of one of the
best orchestras in the state. The or
cehstra is composed Of the leading
musicians in the county. They have
been holding frequent rehearsals for
the past year and have reached that
stage OF perfection where their music
is considered superb.
The Instrumentation OF the Phil
harmonic orchestra is. five first vio-
Inns, three second violirs. three ce,-
los. one base. one flute, two clarin-
cts, two trum9ets, two French horns,
ono trombone. and the drums.
1t bchooves everyone to lend this
orchestra both their moral and finan-
cial support. A community can get
along without many things, but when
the people attempt to live without
either a good orchestra or a swift
ball team, they are but enjoying half
OF the good things OF life. So turn
out on the evening of August 9th.

MRS. CODY DIES.

Mrs. Teresa Cody, wife of Mayor
Cody. died at St. Joseph's hospital
in Denver Monday evening between
six and seven o'clock. She was TAX
en- to the hospital two or three weeks
ago, suffering from rheumatism for
removal to Denver showed no i'm
r-ovement. Although Mrs. Cody had
been ailing for some time, frienIs
did not think her ailment would re-
suit seriously and the announcement
of her death was wholly unexpected.
The funeral was held in Denver
this morning from the home of her
sister. Mrs. Sarah Floyd. Services
Were conducted at St. Pat-ick's
church. Father Naughtor, of this
city. eulogized the deceased. Many
friends from Central and oldtime
friends of the family. now residing
in Denver. attended the funeral. The
remains We're laid to rest in Mt.
Olivet cemetery.
The death OF Mrs. Cody is lament
ed throughout the county. She was
born in Central about 46 years ago.
She was educated In the Sisters
school and grew into womanhooi
here. Twenty-eight years ago she was
married. Three children blessed the
union-Misses Sadie and Mamie and
James.
As an intimate friend OF the de-
ceased frcm gir'hood told the writer.
she was a grand mother and q good
wife. She was devoted to her home
and children. cared little for the
things that require a woman's atten-
tion from domestic affairs. Mrs. Cody
was a devout Catholic and true
christian woman and was beloved by
! the community. Many friends regret
, ted that the funeral was held in Den-
yer as 1t made 1t impossible for all
those to attend who desired to
show their last respects to the de-
ceased.
Tho community sympathizes with
the husband. daughters and son and
feel that not only the relatives but
the town suffers a painful loss In
this good woman's demise.

"rwENTY-oNE" GETS AWAY.

: About $3.50 Tuesday morning. No.
81. the iron steed which draws the
C. & S. passenger train into the city
twice a day, became disguised and
tired Of being hindered by the heavy
rains from making its trips without
transferring. and attempted suicide.
Al mile and a quarter down the far
famed switchback, in the Running
Lode gulch, No. 81 is lying $50 feet
down the hillside.
Ntbtwa:obTan Lundquist, as has
been the custom. ran the engine from
the depot to the coal cars to load
same with coal. Failure Of the air
brakes to work. and the rains making
the rails too slippery for hand brakes
to hold, caused the iron horse to
run away. Dundquist stayed at his
post OF duty and did. all in his pow
er to get the locomotive under con-
troll, but to no avail. At the Amer
icus mine. about a quarter Of a mile
from the scene OF the final plunge,
Uundquist left the engine. The curve
at the gulch above the Running Lode
was too sharp fer 81. and she left
the track, landing in the gulch. The
tracks were badly torn. but were re-
paired in time for the afternoon pas
senger train to leave at 1885.
Hundreds OF people from Central
and Black Hawk have viewed the re-
mains Of 81. 1t presents novel
sight. and the owners OF cameras
have some good views OF the wreck.
A work train came up Tuesday at
noon and has been hard at work.
A track has been laid up the gulch
to the. main line. and the wreckage
taken to the c. & s. shops. 1t Is
doubtful though, whether No. 2l can
be made over again good enough to
be pressed into eervice.

FISHERMEN, ATTENTION!

A meeting of the fishermen of the
central portion of the county is call
Ell fer next Monday evening, to be
held at the jewe.ry establishment of
A Rapin, for the purpose of dis
cussing the feasibility of making
some changes in the north fork of
Clear Creek above Black Hawk for
fishing purposes. The object of the
fishermen who have had the matter
under consideration is to put in sew
eTal dams to block the watch and
make holes for the trout and to cut
the willows along the creek where
this work IS necessary.
North Clear Creek can be made
one OF the best streams in the state
for fishing. Turing this season some
very good catches have been made.
The stream has been stocked and it
is the intention of the local sports
to keep it well supplied with trout.
TIE creek is within easy walking dis
tance Of Central and when placed in
condition for fishing will obviate the
necessity of making the long trip
to Boulder park to angle fer the
soeckled beauties.
Those who are willing to aid in
the work OF building dams and cut.
ting willows, should they not be able
to attend Monday evenings meeting
can leave their names with Mr..
3ap.n and he will notify them Of the
day set when the fishermen will
journey to the creek. At the meeting
Monday evening. the day will be
selected when 1t is hoped a big
crowd will be able to go out.

CENTRAL CITY, Colo, July 27.-
(SPecial.)-An attempt to pass a
resolution in the Democratic county
assembly here today indorsing the
present state administration resulted
in stormy session when Delegate
William NJ. Kirk of Russell Gulch
arose and tod the meeting that he
believed the state had swallowed
enough Of its rotten legislation and
incompetent administration to be
burdened with a yelled attempt to
exonerate it's failure to keep platform
pledges"
w. j. Stull, editor of the Observer,
official organ of Gilpin county Demo
Gratis, seconded the motion with
bitter denunciation of the extrava-
giant expenditures and mismanage-
ment of the state regime. The mo-
tion was smothered. Nine delegates

The above erroneous report of the
Democratic county assembly held in
this city last Saturday afternoon was
sent to the Denver Republican and
appeared as special. We don't
know who the correspondent of the
Republican is, but to properly des-
ignate what he is, the use of the
short and ugly term would be neces-
sary.
A resolution, among other things
Democratic, endorsing the state ad-
ministration, was introduced and a
motion objecting to that particular
portion Of the resolution was offer
ed by a delegate of nervous tenn
permanent who found it difficult to re-
main seated when there appeared an
opportunity to talk. The motion was
lost by a vote Of 36 to 1.
That portion of the special" which
states that the editor of the Observ-
er seconded the motion with a bit
ter denunciation Of the extravagant
expenditures and mismanagement of
the state regime" is as black lie
as was ever told. The writer was not
in accord with the motion. He not
only considered it out of place, but
felt that it was doing the Democratic
state administration a great injustice
Personally we feel that the two ad-
ministrations under Democratic rule
have been very creiitable. free from
graft and marked with business judg-
ment. wherein the closest economy
has been practiced. At the last Com
vention, the writer drafted reso'u-
ton commendatcry Of the Shafroth
regime.
To us the article sent to the Re
publican appears as a contemplate
piece of work intended to put the
writer in bad with the party in the
state, and shows to what depths
some people will sink to work one
an injury.
