The question of the observance

a matter of discussion in the early
centuries of the Christian Era and
different churches as well as ma

provides that Easter Sunday is the
first Sunday following the full moon
after the 71st day OF March or the
Vernal Equinox. The moon will
be full on the 22nd day of March

q. A. r. Monument

On Wednesda y of this week,
Lincoln's birthday, the twelve
FOUNDER Napoleon brass cannon
was mounted on its carriage ard
placed in its permanent p ,sition
in the Carnegie park. The car
carriage was made by Mr.. S. L.
Burger and is substantial and is
built according to the plans and
specifications furnished by the U.
S. Government. The work of
mounting it was supervised in
the forenoon by Adjutant Chas.
F. Devlan, Sr., who has been in
defatigable in his endeavors to
bring about these results. He,
assisted by the veterans and sous
and daughters of the veterans
has been hustling during the past
year and more to get the funds
necessary to carry out his cher
ished desires of having this NE
mento as a reminder to the COM
ing generations of the sacrifices
of lives during that great strife
from 1861 to 1865 to perpetuate
an indissoluble Union, of the dan
ger and priva ions of thousands
in battle and on the firing line,
of skirinishes and picket duty in
storms and winters cold, in the
open fields, wilderness and on
mountain tops. OF the nights
sleeping in wet trenches and in
malaria climates, the forced
marches and every conceivable
danger. In the afternoon short
ly after three o'clock, the chill
dren of our schools marched to
the Park and gathering around
this memento they sang America
Red, White and Blue aud The
Star Spangled Banner. 1t was
an Impressive sight and one that
will linger through life IN the
minds of these youths. The
gun was purchased from the
Ordnance Department of the
United Staaes government by the
money secured by collections
from our citizens and through en-
entertainments that were got up
by the Grand Army post of this
city. The carriage was paid for
in the same manner. The gun
and carriage are placed on a sub
stantial cement pedestal. 1t Is
of the same order as one will see
in the Capital grounds and city
park in Denver. 1t IS credit
to the city to have this memento,
a credit to the Post for securing
the same and a credit to Adju-
tant Devlan for his answering
loyalty and interest in this work.

The booklet, The Carlsbad of
Colorado which was gotten out
by the Hot Springs Hotel, this
last fall, has been the means of
advertising Idaho Springs in a way
that it never was before. There
has already been over 5000 of these
booklets sent out to individuals
all over the country. After the
postage is added to the book, they
cost the hotel Just 17c piece.
Now that he supply is very near
ly exhausted and in order that
the second supply may be had,
would it not be good idea for
the City Council to make an ap-
preparation to cover the expense
of second issue to advertise Ida
ho Springs and continue the
splendid plan of advertising done
by the hotel company Think it
over. The butcher, the baker, the

There is nothing new to report
concerning the Phoenix Burroughs
properties on Quartz hill. Robert

east. reports the water going down
in good shape and he expects to
make an examination through the
Ophir- Burroughs shaft so as to
make accurate measurements as to
where the water now stands. Some
Of the big slopes i'll that mine have
been drained, and as they covered
an immense territory the lowering
of the water has been slow lately,
but it is expected to increase
from this time on. Register Call
Superintendent Schirmer of the
Newhouse tunnel informs us that
the water coming through the two
diamond drill holes from the work
ings of The Phoenix-Burrough
property amounts to approximate
ly IS gallons per minute which is
equivalent to the natural flow
Of water in the mine. If an up
raise from the tunnel to the
lowest level of the Phoenix
Burrough property were made it
would not take long to unwater
the entire property and this could
be done with safety as has been
done in other properties that have
been cut by the Newhouse tunnel
1t looks as though this would be
the proper thing and that it would
cheaper and facilitate the opera
tions in getting out the ore as
we'll as fastening the shipments
