Crowds which all day had formed in groups along Harrison A venue to discuss the two vigilante hangings of the morning,1 now turned to lighter amuse­ ment and hurried toward the most talked-of building in Leadville, the new Tabor Opera House. :B'or weeks the newspapers had been full of the wonders of this ''largest opera house west of the Mississippi,'' the second real opera house in Colorado, the Central City Opera House having been opened in 1878. The crowds gathered by carriage and on foot.

  • Sequent Occupance in the Central City Area, Colorado Lvl Ary Grace Gillespie Man's Desire for the Precious Metals Has Taken Him Into Remote Areas of the Earth
    1,8 FIELD AND LABORATORY Acknowledgments: Collection of meteorites in the vicinity of Odessa crater was with the cooperation of Mr. George Pavey, Mr. Gray Pattillo, and Mr. Blake Hawk, all students or former students of Southern Methodist University. In the absence of the authors at the meetings of the American Association for the Advance­ ment of. Science, Professor Howard A. Meyerhoff kindly placed the paper in the hands of Professor Kirk Bryan for reading. The writers wish to express their appreci­ ation to Professor Bryan for his written comments and criticism of the paper, as well as for additional information on distribution of meteorites about Odessa Crater. Sequent Occupance in the Central City Area, Colorado lvl ary Grace Gillespie Man's desire for the precious metals has taken him into remote areas of the earth. This untiring search for gold lead to the exploration of the canyons of the Rocky Moun­ tains. In 1859 there appeared in an isolated mountain val­ ley of northern Colorado, a small settlement, later to be known as Central City, that boomed suddenly, lived bril­ liantly, and died quickly, only to be revived in 1932. In the summer of 1849 seven natives of Georgia while on their way to California made camp at the confluence of Cherry Creek and South Platte River. That autumn gold was discovered in the stream gravels, but winter weather prevented the prospectors from exploring the creek to its source. When spring came they went on to California, and remained there for several years prospeccting for gold. Later, these men became discontented, sold their claims in California, and returned to Georgia.

  • 2010 Introduction and Key
    History Colorado Colorado Historical Society State Historical Fund All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2010 INTRODUCTION AND KEY This report is a list of all grants awarded by the Colorado Historical Society’s State Historical Fund (SHF) since its inception in 1992 (state Fiscal Year 1993) through the end of Fiscal Year 2010. The amounts listed are the original award amounts. If for some reason the entire grant amount was not used (i.e., a project was terminated or was completed under budget) the full amount awarded will appear. In other instances grant awards were increased either to enable project completion or to cover the costs of easements. In these instances, the additional award amount is shown in a separate entry as an increase. In those cases where no work was accomplished and the funds were either declined by the grant recipient or were required to be returned to the SHF through rescissions, no entry will appear. For this reason, projects listed in one version of this report may not appear in later versions, and the financial information shown in this report may not be comparable to other revenue reports issued by the SHF. Grants listed in this report are identified by project ID number. The first two characters in the project ID number represent the fiscal year from which the grant was scheduled to be paid. The state is on a July 1 – June 30 fiscal year. So, for example, all grants made between July 1, 2009 and June 30, 2010 will be coded “10”. The next two characters identify the type of grant.
