BEAUTIFUL BOULDER. Nestling lneath lofty peaks and spreading out into the finest of all Colorado valleys, Boulder sits, the unique and marvelous city of a marvelous state. Of her beauties the poets sing, the people sound universal acclaim. Boulder is the 't Athens of Coloradof' for she is the seat of the University of Colorado, an institution liberally endowed by the State, and this year having an attendance of three hundred students. All the elements have conspired to render the climate delightful. But twenty-nine miles from Denver, toward the mountains, Boulder is several degrees warmer in the winter and vastly cooler,by reason of the breezes fresh from the snow-clad moun- tains, in the summer. Here, at the moderate elevation of 5,280 feet, live 5,500 contented and intelligent people. Boulder is essentially a city of houses, its school rolls carry- ing the names of 1,300 children. It is, reached from Denver, by the Union Pacific Railroad, with three daily trains, Sun- days, morning and evening trains. A fine Wagon road leads to Boulder canonfalternately lovely by its rippling brook and gentle foliage, and awe-inspiring in the magnificence of its lofty peaks, dark, deep gorges, and the roar of the WonderfulBoulder falls. Hotels for the traveler are plenty and Well ordered. Boul- derls flouring mills produce two hundred barrels a day. She has founderies, a creamery, Works for the sampling of ores, assay offices, a factory for the manufacture of the Sanitary pipe, Wagon-making shops, a steam laundry, two daily and three Weekly newspapers, churches of all Protestant and Catholic faith, four school buildings that cost a'B40,000, a court house situated in a beautiful square in the heart of the city, costing ttl25,000.
