Mr. ]. E. Phillips, editor and pro-
prietor of the Elk Mountain Pilot,
of Crested Butte, has been visiting
Aspen. He is one of those sensible
newspaper men who run paper as a
business enterprise to make money
and we are happy to state that he
has succeeded. By making money,
Mr.. Phillips has been enabled to give
his corner of the great Gunnison
country a paper worthy of respect
and patronage. The Pilot is carefully
edited, always has an interesting and
reliable mining column and gets all
the local news.-Aspen Sun.

} and similar compliment was be-
} slowed, with excellent taste) upon
Miss Gay Evans, who recited in her
usual charming manner. Misses Nina
jackson and Annie Songer acquitted

H. Miller, and the recitation by Lizzie
McWilliams, all deserve. praise.
