Hill occupied a leading pcsltlon In the offi cial nnd social life of Denver and Colorado. When ho dlcl ho was the owner ot the Boston Colorado, better known ns the Argo, smelter, the chief owner of tho ell fields at Florence, controlled by the United Oil company, nnd the chief owner ot the Denver Republican. Besides these he had large Interests both In this state and Montana. Senator IIIU was born In Orange county, New York, In 1832. Ills father, of the same name, was nn extensive farmer, owning a large farm within a few miles of the Hudson river. At lho ao of 21 Senator Hill entered Brorn university. Chemistry was his es pedal delight and he became so proficient In It that In 1836 ho was made a tutor ln tho chemical department of the university, and In 1860 he was elected by the board of trustees protestor of chemistry and contin ued In that position until 1861. ln the mean tlmo he had gained sucn a reputation ns a scientist that n number of Boston nnd Provl denco gentlemen wcic Induced to plnce at his disposal a sufficient sum to enable him to mako a thorough examination of the Gil pin land grant In Colorado. Ilci olutlonlzeil MIiiIiik. To. Mr. Hill Is due the credit of revolu ttonlilng mlnlnc ln the went. He was tho first to successfully treat refractory 'ores, and ho stands alone In the work he has done to put mining on a suro nnd sound basis and enablo tho miner to cbtaln the largest returns for his labor. His entrance In the mining field of Colorado was at the time when the buslncns of mining was at the lowest ebb. When ln 1867 Prof. Hill began erecting his works nt Blackhawk thcro wore only thrco Inadequate stamp mills In op eration In Cillpln county. In a year or bo thcro wero no busier places In Colorado than tho wonderful wealth producing camps of Central City and Blackhawk. The touch of tho professor of chemistry -was greater than thn greatest secret of the fabled al chemist tranfctnutlng base metals Into gold. Mr. Hill's political career began In 1879, when he was brought out as a republican candldato for United States senator. He was successful nnd served six years In the upper house of tho national congrets. Ho was de feated for re-election. His career as senator was highly creditable, both to himself and to his state. Some of the bitterness engcn- dcred by his defeat for rc-clcctlon has not' yet died out. Tho management of the estate will prob ably remain In the handi of Crawford Hill. uon of tho senator. Ho la an alternate dcle- gato to tho Philadelphia convention. The Denver Republican will undoubtedly contlnuo to support tho present administration. INTO A BOER AMBUSH . (Continued from Mrst .Page.)
