a business man, when he is thoroughly acquainted with his subject.

He was married at Cuba, New York, on the 7th of January, 1863, to Miss Harriet M. Bruce, daughter of Packard Bruce, an intelligent, energetic and thrifty farmer. Of his marriage, four children have been born, all of whom are natives of Central Colorado. Mrs. Teller is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, of which her husband is an ardent supporter, but not a communi

cant.

Mr. Teller is popular with the people of his State, because their welfare and not his own personal interests have always characterized his official life. He is popular with the Administration and with his colleagues in the Senate, because of his intelligence, his fidelity and ability. He is five feet eleven inches in height, weighs 165 pounds, and is endowed with great powers of endurance. He is a man of great generosity and to the deserving poor has ever been a friend and benefactor. He has done a vast amount of gratuitous work for the State of his adoption, and has given his money freely wherever an advantage to the State could be secured.

In society he is genial and attractive, possessing magnetic qualities which instantly draw men to him; with his professional brethren he is courteous, affable and engaging. His reputation for probity and uprightness of life is above reproach. Studious, reflecting, laborious and faithful as a lawyer, he has acquired a position at the Bar, second to no one in the West. He is original, and his opinions are based upon mature thought. His perseverance is proverbial, and he never forgets a cause when clouds and doubts begin to gather around it. Before a jury, he is irresistible; while as a jurist his profound knowledge of legal principles and precedents is everywhere recognized.
