Much interest was manifested in Gaffney over the municipal election which took place in niacksburg last Monday. Dr. J. M. Caldwell and Dr. D. S. Ramseur, candidates for the department s work- Mr. John F. Allen Writes Intert injfljr of Sights in and Around Col orado Sprints and Cripple Creek. The following letter received by Mrs. Alary Jane Hanna from Mr. John II. Allen, who recently left Gastonia for Colorado, will be read with interest by many Gkstonians: Dear Miss Hanna: 1 will endeavor to tell you some thing of the country out here. Col orado Pprings is situated just at the fool of the mountain range about five or six miles away, of which Pikes Peak is the most fatuous. This city is about fi.OOti feet lower than the summit of Pike's Peak. The neak is aceessible by trail and by cog road. The rates on the cogroad in summer is $". for the round trip. It sure takes a strong heart and good bi-eatliing apparatus to make the trip. In summer lots of people go afoot. ISegin about Hi o'clock and, l.' ou are a good climber, vou can reach the summit by four. It takes four hours to make the last four miles. It takes some 1' 1 hours to climb it. The peak is snow-capped most all the jear. A man and his wife were frozen to death up here In August, Hill. Thv city is beautifully laid off. Tt is very level, being located down In the valley. The streets are from l "n to L'lio feet broad with plenty of shade and some of them, especially Cascade avenue, where the aristo crats live, are parked in the center all the way through. While strap litur through town one day I stopped and looked each wav and as far as 1 could see was street and sidewalks although the street was as level al most as the floor. Tin v are laid off almost perfectly straight. Sanitary fountains on the streets and in public places are supplied with water from meltini; snow from the mountains and it is certainly good . Tlm-re is no ma n 'i fac' 'i r i n i; in the town for it is no allowed The town is supported by the tour'srs who come in the summer. They certainly pull the 'cl's of these visi tors, too. They ha',. c'y npp schools here hut whites and blacks all uo together. That doesn't sound very ueod to a Southern man. Ttio air is fine but males a new-comer breathe hard when he Prst comes, i can walk 1", miles per day hire like I did in North Carolina where the altitude is not so great 1 sent pa pers off a few davs ago for my trans fer and if nothing prevents I will begin work April Kith. .1 will he lo cated at Cripple Creel;, a mining dis trict about Oil miles west of here. Cripple Creek is about in.finn feet high, located jiist on top of the Rockies. Gold is principally the thing mined there. The trip up there is universally acknowledged to , be the best one-day trip in the world I To attempt a description of it would bankrupt the English ! an enact1. The North Cheynne Cannon is on this trip and is a wonder to behold. Rid ing along the side of the mountain one can look for hundreds of feet straight down and possibly the same distance to the top of the mountain on the other side of the train. Tow ering rocks on some of the moun tains seem to have been standing from time immemorial and are worn smooth by the falling snow and rain. We have very little rain in this coun try. All the farmintr that is carried on is done on irrigated lanii. water beinc cnucht from the melting snow on the mountains and turned on the land as needed 'Ridfnc on the trol ley car from Criimle Creek to Yic tor, a distance of five miles, vou can see a rnni?" of mountains snow-canned 100 miles away. I did not know 1 could see so far till I came here Cripple Creek i built on the side of the mountain and pome of 'he streets are almost 1 " decrees. They have snow almost the year round. Had a snow storm here last Ith of July. Living is very expensive here ,n everything is shipped in. Hoard is about to $.'!0 per month, coal $7.."0 per ton, a shave 50 cents, a shine I " cents. Labor brings from to $ ner day I tok a trip to the Garden of the Gods and saw some sights out there, mostly com posed of curious rocks. There Is "Steamboat Rock," "Ralanced Rock," "Siamese Twins" and "Kissing Cam els. "Ralanced Rock" is about .".O or 7." feet high and balanced on one foot of the ground. The others are just huge mountains of solid rocks and the immediate grounds are gen erally level. It looks curious to see some of these coming tin out of the earth. Lots of other sichts T have not taken in. It all has to be set to be appreciated. Yours trulv. JOHN II. ALLEN". Colorado Springs. Col . March 12 ONE MAN LEARNS WISDOM At Least to the Extent of Ceasing to Wonder What Women Do in Their "Spare Time." I come to you with bowed head, re pentant, O Womankind! I have talked much, during the years, of woman's sphere. Aye. mu.ch too much. I haste toward you with a thousand pardons to be begged. I am no longer stewing in my ig norance. I am cognizant of great truth. I do not apologize for saying that woman has a sphere. Hut I should have mentioned that it is a lop-sided sphere. Today, for two hours, I tested the possibilities of woman's sphere. For two hours I minded the baby, 1 tabu late my activities thus: v:;n a. m .Novitiate begins. S::il Haby wants a cookie.

I have spoken much of woman's sphere. And I have wondered what women do in their spare time. Heaven forgive me! Puck. w HAT MUSICAL CIUTICS SAY ABOUT FLORENCE AUSTIN". N'o living violinist has been more generally and discriminatingly prais ed than has Florence Austin, the great American artist who will ap pear here next Monday night in re cital at the Central school auditor ium. The following excerpts are select ed at random from innumerable for eign and American newspapers: "Alias Austin positively carried a way her audience by the accuracy and breadth of her playing in the Airs Hongrois of Ernst. She (harm ed everyone by her tire and aban don, and has unusual command over tone color. Her phrasing is artistic, her interpretations manifest both musical and intelligent grasp, and the possession of that intangible something called temperament." I. Neuse, Liege, Itelgium. "Miss Austin has a pure, sweet tone Her bowing is good and her technic shows a mastery of the vio lin. The concerto of Paganinl was played so well that the audience in- l encore."

A sound body is essential for physi cal exertion, but it should be accom panied by a well-disciplined mind in order to attain the best results in any profession, business or sport. A New England college president is endeav oring to stimulate mental activity among his students for the purpose of making them better equipped for their future calling. This educator's belief Is that the best way to make an ath lete is to teach him first to think, and that the best way to make a good man is to train his mind so neither he nor another can make the worse appear to him the better reason. Intellectual attainments are neces sary in every calling. The student who neglects his opportunities to de velop his mental powers is very fool ish, for when he goes out into the world to earn a livelihood he will find that the thinking man is the one who pets ahead. On the sporting fields the tlear thinking athlete is the most sue cessful. easily outstripping his slower comrades. Whatever ia worth doing at all is worth doing well, and the thinking student soon learns to be thorough in all his efforts. Tricks of Orators. Great orators have not scrupled tc use the arts of the actor to produce their effects. Lord Hrougham, while protesting against the rejection of the reform bill by the house of lords, cried out: "I implore you upon my knees!" kneeling before them on the "wool sack," upon which the lord chancillor sits when presiding in the house of lords. Sheridan, having finished his famous speech in the trial of Warren Hastings, sank back apparently fainting in the arms of his friends. r,umuuu nurKe, at tne end or a speech upon the atrocitfes which might be expected from the French in case of an invasion, drew forth an en ormous two-edged dagger and exclaim ing: "This is the weapon which will be pointed at your throats and mine!" dashed it on the floor with a tragic gesture. ".Miss Austin combines with extra ordinary, tec li nic, the art which is of, more value; tj express her feelings. I .-Mio has the temperament necessary to the good artist, as shown in her interpretation of the Paganini j coiii erio in 1 1 anil ill Here ouse by Petiarcl, which she plaved chaiining lv as an encore." Staats-Zeitung, New York. "Miss Florence A ust in . violinist of rate merit, was the star of the ev ening.
