  • The Klondike Gold Rush
    The Klondike Gold Rush 1 On August 16, 1896 Yukon-area Indians Skookum Jim Mason and Tagish Charlie, along with Seattleite George Carmack found gold in Rabbit Creek, near Dawson, in the Yukon region of Canada. Gold was literally found all over the place, and most of these early stakeholders (who became known as the "Klondike Kings") became wealthy. 2 Since the Yukon was so remote, word of this find spread relatively slowly for almost a year. On July 17, 1897, eleven months after the initial discovery of gold, the steamship Portland arrived in Seattle from Dawson with "more than a ton of gold", according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. With that pronouncement, the Klondike Gold Rush was on! 3 Within six months, approximately 100,000 gold-seekers set off for the Yukon. Only 30,000 completed the trip. Many Klondikers died, or lost enthusiasm and either stopped where they were, or turned back along the way. The trip was long, arduous, and cold. Klondikers had to walk most of the way, using either pack animals or sleds to carry hundreds of pounds of supplies. The Northwest Mounted Police in Canada required that all Klondikers bring a year's worth of supplies with them. Even so, starvation and malnutrition were serious problems along the trail. The story of the Klondiker who boiled his boots to drink the broth was widely reported, and may well have been true. Cold was another serious problem along the trail. Winter temperatures in the mountains of northern British Columbia and the Yukon were normally -20 degrees F., and temperatures of -50 degrees F.

  • 'Baby' Tabor - 'The Ballad of Baby Doe' - Includes Related Information
    This cloud had a silver lining: the Washington Opera has revived the improbable story of Horace and 'Baby' Tabor - 'The Ballad of Baby Doe' - includes related information Insight on the News, Feb 10, 1997 by T.L. Ponick No matter how hard he tried, luck always seemed to elude Horace Tabor, the central figure in a celebrated mining-town rags-to-riches saga. From before the Civil War to the boom times of the 1870s, Tabor prospected for gold and silver in the craggy mountains of Western Colorado without much to show for it. When, suddenly, he hit pay dirt, he became the biggest man in Leadville and one of the richest in Colorado. Tabor built an opera house, cast off his dour-looking wife, hitched himself to a colorful woman of dubious virtue named "Baby" Doe and spent money as of he owned the Denver mint -- only to die penniless at century's end, a victim of the nation's abandonment of freely coined silver, leaving his flamboyant wife in rags. Authentic legends of the West, Horace and Baby Doe Tabor and their times were brought to the stage in July 1956 by composer Douglas Moore and librettist John Latouche for the Central City Opera of Denver. The Ballad of Baby Doe was revised for its New York City Opera premiere in 1958, with Beverly Sirs starring in the difficult coloratura role of Baby. In January, the Washington Opera unveiled its production featuring soprano Elisabeth Comeaux and baritone Richard Stilwell, a Metropolitan Opera veteran, as the Tabors, with mezzo Phyllis Pancella as the spurned wife Augusta.

  • 2013 Annual Report
    THANK YOU COLORADO COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS ANNUAL REPORT 2013 Thanks to you... DEAR FRIENDS The Coalition produced exceptional results in 2013 because of support, leadership, and collaboration among compassionate and dedicated organizations and individuals like you. To simply say we are thankful would understate the importance of our work and your role in it. We are profoundly grateful to you because you’ve enabled us to respond to more than 15,000 people who genuinely needed our help, and who themselves have valiantly worked to overcome the conditions that led to their homelessness. Four notable achievements stand out among our numerous programs and activities of 2013. We launched the new Fort Lyon Supportive Residential Community in Bent County, Colorado. It represents state and local efforts to re-purpose the former Fort Lyon Veterans Administration Hospital to meet the addiction recovery needs of homeless individuals from across Colorado, with an emphasis on homeless veterans. We began to secure financing for Renaissance at North Colorado Station, a new, mixed-income housing development in the Clayton neighborhood in Denver. Once complete, the transit-oriented project will include 103 apartment homes for homeless individuals and families and for those lower-income households in the community seeking affordable housing. To simply say we are thankful would understate the importance of our work and your role in it. 2 Residential instability increases risks for serious health problems, exacerbates existing illness, complicates treatment, and often exposes persons to further traumatization. In response, we pilot-tested a new integrated model of care at our West End Health Center to better meet the complex and specialized physical and behavioral health concerns of those we care for.
