Science Club. The lantern display which the Science Club announced some time ago, of the pi tures taken by the Estes Park party last summer, was given in Snow Hall last Friday evening. The lantern slides were prepared and exhibited by Messrs. W. S. and E. C. Franklin and were briefly explained by V. L. Kellogg. A brief account was given of the hardships, the various encounters and best of all the ten days tramp made by nine of the party from Morane in Estes' Park across the Continental Divide through the length of Middle park, across the range again and down Clear Creek Canon to Golden, where the party took the train for Denver. The distance traveled was about 150 miles, making an average of about fifteen miles per day. The experience of the party was given so that it would be of use to others who might expect to spend a summer camping. The views when thrown o4. the wall were about six feet in diameter and showed the beautiful scenes of Colorado to the best advantage. The picture of Estes Park was one of exceptional beauty and elicited much admiration from the audience. All of the views, however, were not conned to the strictly beautiful, some of them being quite amusing and furnishing the lecturer an opportunity to give some jokes at the expense of the subjects of the pictures. The audience was highly pleased with the exhibition and this manner of presenting views by the Science Club will prove very popular. Good Warm GLOVES and CAPS at ABE LEVY'S.
