When autumn goes and cold begins
Guests flock to all the wayside inns.
While clouds hang low and snowhakes fly
They hold their dainty revery
The flowers are gone that summer knew,
Long since the summers songsters flew,
But still remain the sturdy weeds
That know the little sparrows' needs.
Though sapless stalks are brown and dry,
The weeds still bear their feast5 on high.
The goldfinch here may cat his fill,
The iunco lunch on seeds at will.
We never praised in brighter hours
Their sober hues among the flowers.
What need have they of human words
Who bring such Joy to all the birds?
Youths Companion.

The delegates to the democratic
county assembly met in the opera
house in this city last Saturday
for the purpose of placing in nom
nation candidates for the respec-
tive county offices to be voted on
at the September primaries. Un-
der the new primary law any can
didate who receives ten per cent
of the votes of the delegates to the
assembly is entitled to have his
name placed on the primary ballot.
There we're plenty of candidates,
hence all aspirants have an op-
portunity to submit their cause to
the democratic voters. The Sue
cessful one for each Office at the
primaries then becomes the regular
candidate for the Novem mber cleo
ton. The following selections
were made:
Representative-Frank Brady,
J. w. Old.
Judge-W. S. Hobbs, John
Tomay.
Clerk and Recorder-Frank L.
Peck, l.. A. Hsfer, James Culley,
John Kaminky and S. M. Smith.
Treasurer Frank Miller, Mr.:
Cowle, James Noone.
Sheriff-A. 1. Bean, Thomas
Cunningham, A. E. Straub.
Superintendent of schools Mrs
Ella R, Adams.
Assessor Mason, j. S.
Fisher.
Suryeyor-James Underhill.
Coroner-Dr. j. A. Morehouse.
Commissioned for the Empire
and Silver Plume district-O. N.
Marihugh, Chas. Hickman, Mr.
Pomeroy.
Commissioner for the George
town district-John M. Stewart.
It is understood that Messrs.
Culley and Smith will not file an
acceptance on account of an agree
ment between the three candidates
for clerk and recorder from Idaho
Springs that the one receiving the
highest vote in the assembly would
be the candidate and the other
two would not run.

The death of Miss Sarah F.
Rice occurred last Sunday. Since
early childhood she had been de-
prived of sight and hearing as a
result of a severe attack of scarlet
fever. She went to schools for
years for those thus afflicted.
During the past four years she
has made her home with her
brother, Frank. She was born in
this city thirty-seven years ago
last May. Surviving her are a
sister, Mrs. Idah j. Craig, and
three brothers, Frank, Charley
and William. Her grandfather
was the first pastor of the Presby-
terian church and during his
ministry the church was built.

A recent statistical table issued
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission sheds light upon the earn
ings per mile of railroads aud illus
trates the difference between the
earnings of road in Colortdo and
one in an eastern state where the
population is greater and the traffic
is correspondingly heavier. For
example, the Denver and Rio
Grande railroad earns $9,269 per
mile each year in passenger and
freight revenue the Boston and
Maine R. R. earns SIo,I43 pei
mile, the Erie R. r. $25,353; the
Lehigh Valley R. R $26,622; the
Lake Shore R. R. $29,523 and the
Central R. R. OF New Jersey S3S
3o5. The reason for the larger
earnings in the case of eastern
roads is, of course, the amount OF
business done on account of the
greater mum Der Of peop living
along these lines.
The expense of maintaining and
operating a Colorado railroad is
greater than that of an eastern
road, owing to the heavy grades,
danger from floods, snowslides etc
Owing to the density of the pop
ulation in the east the tax levy on
railroad property is not as high as
IN the west. In some counties in
Colorado the Rio Grande Southern
is paying more than four per cent
taxes on its assessed valuation, the
counties through which they run
having no great population or large
amount of taxable property other
than the railroad.
For these reasons the probe m
of the railroad is to get Colorado
settled as fast as possible in order
that they may receive more busl-
ness and the present heavy ia x
alton be shared by other property.

Joseph Newman, the popular
song writer, singer and humorist
supported by an excellent comp
any, will appear at the new Opera
House, Thursday evening August
~.
Mr.. Newman needs no introduc-
ton to western audiences, for he
long ago won his way into their
hearts by reason of his originality
his inimitable manner and his hap
DIV choice of selections. His every
appearance adds to his host of ad-
mirers, indeed one critic has sald--
"the more you hear Joe Newman
the better you like him. Much
of his success is due to his zeal IN
always giving the people some
thing new. And that reputation
he will maintain this season by
offering a particularly bright and
clever collection of songs, includ-
ing his own compositions as well
as the latest London and New
York successes.
Mr.. Newman will bring with
hin this season an entirely new
campany consisting of Miss Frank
lie Mast, Violinist, Miss Jane Craw-
ford, Contralto, Miss Heled Wise;
Accompanist and Clair Bozman,
Soloist.
Miss Mast, after graduating
from ,the Cincinnati Conserva-
tory of Music studied three years
abroad under such masters as
Joachim, Halir and Witek. Her
splendid Interpretation of the most
difficult violin compositions earned
for her the unqualified appreciation
of the foremost critics of Germany.
Miss Crawford was recently a
member of the Aborn and the
Joseph Sheenan Grand Opera
Companies. She is Mezzo Con-
tralto who sings with great teel-
ing and who appears to splendid
advantage in the Arias requiring
strength, volume aud dramatic ex
preston. Miss Wise is pianist
of rare talent and an accompanist
of unusual ability. She fully un-
derstands the are of following and
sustaining the violin and voice
parts so necessary to successful
solo work, Mr.. Bozman will fur
nish variety to the program by
playing solos on the sweet toned
instrument, h Euphonium,
which he manipulates with an ease
and grace that captivates the aud
ience.
Enjoyable features of the pro-
gram will be the little one act plays
proposing by Proxy" and "a
Woman's Proper Place.. The
latter is humorous treatment of
one phase of the suffrage question.
