C. H. SPEERS,
ABOUT THE CITY
An extensive variety of flower and
garden seeds at Hawley’s.
Fishing tackle and all kinds of sport
ing goods at Rapin’s.
When one has to apologise for being
decent or honest it is time he was
choosing new company or emigrating.
Almost any one who is willing to pay
the price can become wealthy. The
price is self-denial, earnest, unflagging
effort and strict economy.
One good feature about suicide is that
it affords one a choice as to the manner
of his death.
The loudest talker is not always the
most convincing.. An empty wagon
makes lots of noise.
Silas R. Teats, of this city, and Mary
A. Mallett, of Denver, were married in
Denver Tuesday. The bride formerly
resided in Central and has many friends
here. Mr. and Mrs. Teats will reside
in Central.
Mr. and Mrs. Matt Andres, former
Gilpin county residents, have moved
from Prescott, Ariz., to Clarendon,
Tex. They are trying to find a place
that will compare with Gilpin county,
but apparently are having a mighty
hard time.
E. F. McCafferey, agent for the Sing
er Sewing Machine company for Jeffer
son and Clear Creek counties will be in
Central and Black Hawk one week
every month and those needing supplies
can phone orders at the Colorado House,
Black Hawk.
Among the several ladies to graduate
from the Wolcott school in Denver
Tuesday evening was Miss Yetta Mc-
Farlane, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Pete McFarlane, old time residents of
this city. The young lady is blessed
with intelligence, inheriting it from her
sagacious father, and consequently
graduated with high honors.
At the St. James M. E. church next
Sunday the services will be of special
interest to the public, being in the
morning, the Baccalaureate sermon to
the graduating class of the Central City
high school. In the evening will occur
the Memorial service of the Odd Fellows.
At the morning service Mrs. Phillips
will play the great production by Ba
tiste, “St. Cecelia.”
A. G. Elliott, according to yester
day’s Denver News, has applied in the
district court for the appointment of a
receiver for the War Dance mine. El
liott was a member of a company that
worked the property at one time and
claims he still has an interest in the
mine. He says J. C. Hutchinson, who
recently gave a lease to the present
workers of the mine acted without au
thority.
The district court convened for the
June term Monday. The cases that are
to come up at this sitting were set.
There are about twenty cases to be
heard, all civil with the exception of
one—People vs. Leonard and Dodge,
charged with grand larceny. From the
number of cases that will be heard it is
anticipated that this will be a long term
of court, requiring all this month and
part of next to dispose of the business.
The coaches of Saturday morning’s
passenger train were crowded, many of
the residents of Gilpin county going to
Denver to spend Decoration day. The
train was almost three hours late in
leaving the Central depot. A switch
was left open and the engine ran off the
trtek. Several hours were required in
placi.ij the iron horse back on the rails
and as a result of the mishap the morn
ing train did not Denver until
12:15.

M. A. McGruth, principal Clark build
ing. Loretta Loughran, Mary McLeod,
Harriet Lewis, grade teachers; Cather
ine Miller, primary and domestic
science; Grace Pascoe, assistant teach
er. There is one vacancy among the
grade teachers and also a vacancy in
supervisor und drawing.
The butchers and grocers again cross
ed bats at City park yesterday after
noon with the result that the butchers
were trimmed to the tune of 24 to 10.
This is the fourth victory for the gro
cers, and the knights of the cleaver
have been made "some foolishness of”
each time. They are termed as butchers
but the word jugglers would be more
in form. Mux Gabardi, who thought he
could make a noise like a weinerwurst,
received a rap on the head with the ball
which reminded him that he was still in
the game. Poor jugglers, here’s hoping
you will succeed in winning one game
at least during the season.
Watermelons at Hawley’s.
Cucumbers at Hawley’s.
W. C. Fullerton went to Boulder last

couple will reside in Tolland where the
groom is engaged in business.

County commissioners met Monday
and aside from the allowing of bills ac
cepted the resignation of Thos. Hooper
as justice of the peace and appointed
John McCullough in his stead. Mr. Mc-
Cullough is now police judge and justice
of the peace and has somewhat of a
judicial air.
In the Denver Post Sunday appeared
an extensive write-up of Central City
and the pictures of several local cele
brities. Bide Dudley, who wrote the
article, seemed well pleased with the
town and talked as though the citizens
made a hit with him.
The city is erecting a grand stand on
the vacant ground on Main street across
from the postoflice. It is a semi-per
manent structure, being 12x12 feet in
dimensions, with a canvas top. It will
be used Saturday evening for the first
time when the opening concert will be
given. The band stand is one of the
schemes Mayor Jenkins has in mind for
beautifying the city and it may be that
he will follow the ideas of Mayor Speer
of Denver along this line. It is very
likely that the horse trough across from
the postoflice will be transformed into
an electric fountain, similar to the one
recently installed in the city park in
Denver.

Ruskln.
