TO THE READERS.

During the past two years and
more, number of articles have ap-
peared in The Observer" reflecting
on the character. integrity ari pro-
fessional standing OF Mr.. H. A.
Hicks, then of this city, now OF Den
Yer. These articles were written dur
ing the heat OF political dissensions.
and while there existed between the
undersigned and Mr.. Hicks personal
differences. They were not based up
on personal knowledge. but upon
rumors and hearsay which came to
the ear OF the writer.
In the light of mature reflection.
the articles should never have been
published.
1t has ever been the policy Of the
proprietor of this paper to avoid do
ing any injustice to any one, and !
therefore take this occasion to give
this statement the same prominence
and publicity as was accorded the
articles in question.

quoting new department at the Den

A number of our best citizens OF

What good does "Ph. D." or an

not the use of a finger bowl and seek

Latin and 'Trig" if you are left with

Mrs. McFarlane gives practical
demonstrations with knife, fork,
spoon, napkin, etc.-everything, in
fact, for perfectly appointed dinner
except food. She makes it clear why
1t is futile to pursue a rea with a
knife, and the reason for attacking
soup sideways with the spoon in
stead of endways; she tells how to
surround asparagus and macaroni
without making oneself a revelation
and scream; she throws all kinds
OF side-lights on table manners and
answers all questions pertaining to
etiquette such as:
when is it proper to use a tooth
pick, II ever?'
Polite conversation is one of the
specialties. None of your row,dy

Mrs. McFarlane also gives advice
on all kinds of social matters-when

coats; how to write proper notes OF

The culture department has met

COMMITTEE LOOKS INTO
THE AUTOMOBILE ROAD,

The auto road committee of the
Chamber of Commerce reconnoitered
the country between the top of Dory
hill and Missouri lake, on Tuesday
last. Chairman w. H. Parenteau pil-
oted the committee. In the party
were Mayor John Stroehle, Thorvald
Crook and Otto Blake, of Black
Hawk; Messrs. Peter McFarlane and
Alfred Skeels of Central.
Two feasible routes We're gone
over; one via Lone Tree park, the
other would skirt the upper part of
Hughesville. A survey will be had of
both routes to obtain. the maximum
grade and estimate the cost of build
ing the same. The steep pitch on
the road from Missouri lake to
Pickle gulch, will be eliminated by
building one half mile of new road
to the maximum auto grade of six
per cent.
The new road will directly, connect
with the Golden road and make DOS
sible one-day mountain circle trim
out of Denver. Leaving Golden by
the north road and Guy hill to the
top Of Dory. then on through Black
Hawk and Central, returning via Ida
no Springs and the new Floyd hill
road to Golden.
On the divide where our new road
will start, the scenic view is one of
grandeur; below nesting
like diamond in a turquoise setting
is Missouri lake. In the near distance
the everlasting snow clad peaks of
the main range. James peak appears
to be but stones throw away. In
one long panoramic view extending
from the College peaks on the New
Mexico border to the north of Longs
peak on the Wyoming line, the eye
is entranced with. the immensity of
the scene. All this the auto tourist
can drink in without leaving his ma
chine. This route when completed
will undoubtedly attract thousands
and prove of lasting benefit to Gil
pin county. The committee is of the
unanimous opinion that the work
should start without delay.
