==Coal mining town==
It was a coal mining town, named for Colorado Springs banker and broker John H. Pape,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stockbrokerss, Mine Promotors, and Stock Exchanges List of Colorado Springs, Cripple Creek, and Denver )〕 which was inhabited by Southern European immigrants, many Italian, who came to Colorado directly after arriving in the United States at the turn of the 20th century. The town was inhabited by individuals who had mined at nearby Curtis, another mining town, and moved to the town due to miner's labor issues.
The plat for the town was filed on May 13, 1901 in which Pape divided up the land for the town into 180 lots. The town—bounded by the present El Paso Street, Templeton Gap Road, and Fillmore Street—had a steel company, power plant, farms, and a large greenhouse. Its street names were after states, like Virginia and Pennsylvania. Plans for a new two-room schoolhouse were made in 1908. A social program was implemented about 1919 by Professor A. P. R. Drucker and his students from Colorado College for immigrants to teach English, civics, history, and math. Wrestling and boxing classes were also taught as part of the program.
Nick Venetucci worked on the family farm in Papeton, where his Italian-born father was a coal-miner. Nick's brother died in an explosion on the farm.
