THE DIFFERENCE IN - BPILftKEES " "SOME REMINISCENCES. Some speeches read well hat fall flat before the audience. Some are magnetic and carry along in i plte ol your moder ate taste for speeches. We well remem ber bow Julius Bolivar Curtis, "spoke his piece" fn the early debates in Gray's Plain Ecboolhonse, and, afterwards, bow the late Silas Wheeler "followed in that rapid and impetuous style jthat Demof- lbece;used against Philiip.j Suchfpeak ers often run "way by" their word, like bounds after a fox track; then they turn to look up their words and run on again with increased velocity! Such speakers nearly always magnetize an audience! Park Hill was impetuous also in his early effjrts but became'like his brother Beach Hill, slow, elegant and ponderous. T J. uorbett. was silverv. like Wonrisll Pnillip, and used few gestures. Alonzo Sherman, the late sarcastic; wit of Gray's Haiti, was the most diverse in style of any man we ever beard speak. At times, like a majestic tree, he would bend a little.at the top, as if bowing toh's hear ers and, in half a minute he would remind you or, a two:bprse hay tedder in swift motion! The wit, the information, and the ridicule was one of the great attrac tions that so often hlled our celebrated scnooinouse to ovei flawing. The late Die So'mers, and the late Aloczo Tay lor were often in debate, with many oi those mentioned and those days all come up as diys that were worth living; and, when we hear a Bryan or Tom Heed, oi aiaimadgeour thoughts recur to the famous old men and young men who once walked the earth in the easterr. part of old Newtown. The perfeel speaker is be who has a "vital subject,'' and handles.it "without gloves." When Judge De Forest, and Judge Torrance came up to "Punkups," to .discuss the question : "Is civilizatian more condu cive to happiness that Darbarism?" We backwoods men felr, as if we did'nt know anything about oratory and even Park Hill, "Kob" Hinman and Sherman felt the f orce of logic as advanced by the rules of rhetoric and grammer. But the comparison of the barbarian to the jelly fish by "Rob," was a setback to his opponents, somewhat like the cannon Michael discharged upon Satan for the first time in the great war betwen Heaven and Hell, as described ;by the immortal poet, Miltotf. "For the life of us" we cannot remember how the question was decided, but we think the "jelly fish" won -J-fG.'W. B. - JOHN B.PECK BUTS THE BEAIi ESTATE BE- LOSGISG TO THE ESTATE OF THE LATE L B.

The city of Colorado Springs is one of the greatest health resorts in the country certainly for those affected with lung trouble. I might eay it was founded by them and is peopled by them, for its fame is based on its climate, and its population composed for the greater part of sufferers asking relief. Its fame is well founded for here is a climate that has a great deal in its favor. The soil is sandy and gravelly and does not hold the moisture. Trees do not grow naturally here except by the creeks, vegetation is scanty and the sun pours down its rays through a rarified atmosphere and makes the air exception ally dry. There is an abundance of sun shine. An entirely cloudy dav is rare the sun makes its appearance a time at least during the day to cheer the spirits. Indeed the climate is so genial and en joyable that there have been attracted here quite a colony of EngliEh settlers of the wealthy class who nod this a much more preferable place of residence than crowded, befogged England. These English cou.ina form such an import ant part of the population here that up in Denver and c-Uewbere in the state we are jcularly known as '-Little Lunnon," a church society into which are gath ered many of these people who have re cently erected a place of worship which is popularly known as the "church of the Holy Aiiitocrats." But in spite of these facts the place is thoroughly Amer ican and eastern in sentiment. While the rest of the state in the recent presi dential election voted overwhelmingly for the silver candidate, this city was a stronghold of gold advocates. Boston and the cities of the Atlantic seaboard are well represented here. which fact is a commentary on the harshness of the long and cold winters there. About every doctor in the nUce was led to come here In the first in stance, for -his health. I am told that one of them who now rides about be hind a span of spirited horses in a sty lish vehicle, was brought here years ago on a bed. And all the doctors who are able to attend to practice seem to thrive. For awhile they can accomplish very lit tle for their patients in addition to the climate yet many sick mortals seem to derive much consolation from the mere sight of a dLc pie of Erculspius, espec ially when he drives around in a smart and businesslike turnout. The opportunities here for social and intellectual erjiyment are such as to make the place especially desirable for either sick or well. There are likely many spots down in New Mexico and Ariz3na folly as desirable as regards climate and the physical man would doubtless derive much benefit. But they are lonely and undeveloped and the spiritual man would have I fear dif ficulty in keeping his wits in working order and his mental faculties from rust and. dry rot.
