THE NEW ERA
WALDEN, - - - • COLORADO.
Digging Into Jericho.
Prof. Sellln’s excavations on the site
of the ancient city of Jericho are yield
ing unexpectedly rich treasures. In
his last letters to the Vienna Academy
of Science the professor writes that
over 100 men are digging at five differ
ent points. One of the most interest
ing finds Is the historical city wall, •
built of burnt-lime bricks. It was some <
ten feet in thickness, rising from a 1
stone foundation. On the western
side of the city the wall was nearly 40
feet in width. At another point a pri
vate house was found built over an
other house of a still earlier epoch.
Other discoveries, says Pall Mall Ga
zette, Include lamps, plates, cups,
needles, weights, mortars and mills of
bronze and stone, some of very rough
and primitive handiwork and others
ery finely executed. In the inner city
remains of rows of houses have been
uncovered. The ancient Hebrew let
tering proves that the old Hebrew
characters were in use. Prof. Sellin
hopes to renew the excavating work
next winter. In the meantime he says
that the work already done has opened
up a wealth of material for the student 1
of the pre-Israelite and Canaanito
period.
Drainage vs. Irrigation.
The immense possibilities of drain
age in making new productive land
for the United States are forcefully
pointed out in the latest report of the
geological survey. It is estimated
that no less than 60,000,000 acres of
land may be reclaimed in this manner.
If less than half of this work is done,
It is said that the land values of the
United States would be increased $2,-
600,000,000 and that the crop values
would be advanced $750,000,000 a year.
This showing, says the Monitor Maga
zine, is expected to have a marked
effect on congress in the matter of ap
propriations. But to impress the les
son still further, it is estimated that
with the division of this new land into
40-acre farms, 1,250,000 families, or
€.000,000 persons, could be provided
with homes; that each family would
spend some $2,000 in making waste
places bloom, and that the total ex
penditure In thus bettering the United
States would be something like $2,-
600,000,000. Truly an Imposing array
of figures.
Ethical Code of Electrical Engineers.
One of the most gratifying incidents
of the present era of ethical awaken
ing in America was the recent agita
tion in favor of the adoption of an
ethical code by the Institute of Elec
trical Engineers. It is true that at the
recent annual meeting at Niagara the
carefully prepared code, upon which a
competent committee had unanimous
ly agreed, met with delay, on mere
grounds of technical procedure. The
postponement of consideration by no
means, however, Implies rejection of
the measure, says Century Magazine,
and the present authorities of the in
stitute will doubtless carry the matter
forward with all constitutional dis
patch, for no member of this honora
ble profession, a profession yearly in
creasing in responsibility and impor
tance, would be willing to go on record
as permanently opposing so desirable
a reform, and one which the press of
the country has hailed with such cor
dial and significant approval.
John T. Tagan, a driver of the Bos
ton fire department, who, to avoid a
collision of his truck with a crowded
trolley car, realizing that many of the
passengers might be killed, deliberate
ly turned his horses toward the side
walk and was killed himself as a re
sult, was a truer hero than most of
those who died In war, because with
out hope of reward or glory he gave
his life that others might live. Tagan
was credited with being one of the
most skillful drivers in the depart
ment, and his death under these cir
cumstances is another illustration that
the danger to the firemen is not al
ways the fires, but the going to them,
hence the wickedness of the false
alarm.
The London Chronicle advances the
proposition that literary women live
long, and says that, for instance, Car
olina Herschel reached the age of 98,
Harriet Lee 95, Mary Somerville 92,
Hannah More 88, Maria Edgeworth
and Anna Barbauld 82, Jane Porter 74.
Georges Sand 72, and Mary Mitford
died in her 70th year. It would be
easy, however, to make a list as long
as that of literary women who have
died young. j
The German army is to be supplied
with paper kettles, a Japanese inven
tion. Though made of pliable paper, j
they can bo hung over a fire long
enough to bring the water to a boil.
One kettle can be used about eight
times.
"New York,” says Dr. Derdiger, "is
four times as big as it should be when
the size of the island is taken into con
sideration." That ought to hold them
for a while, but goodness knows it
won’t, says the Chicago Daily News.
PRIEST HAD A WIFE.
Widow Appears and Asks for Her
Share of Estate.
Denver. —Evelyn Benn 3 Lepore after
fighting for four years has at last been
acknowledged to be the wife of Rev.
Father Felix Mariano Lepore, the
priest in charge of Mt. Carmel Catholic
church, who was shot and mortally
wounded in his study at the church No
vember 19, 1903, it is believed by Jo
seph Sorice, who was also mortally
wounded by the priest in the affray.
Both men died within a few hours.
When the estate of Father Lepore
was filed for probate by his brother,
: Felice Lepore, it was stated that tho
j deceased clergyman had no heirs at
| law except his father, three sisters and
a brother. The estate was worth some
thing like $20,000 when first placed in
the custody of the courts. This in
cluded real estate, money in bank and
a number of patent rights held by the
deceased at the time of his death.
It was not until the estate had been
admitted to probate that there ap
peared a claimant to the property in
the person of Evelyn Benns, who
claimed that she had been the wife of
the priest since July 1, 1896, and that a
son was born as the result of that mar
riage September 15, 1898. Mrs. Benns*
claims were ridiculed by Felice Lepore,
the administrator of the estate, and
since that time until the present the
fight against Mrs. Lepore’s claims has
been most bitterly contested.
Yesterday afternoon Judge Grant L.
Hudson signed the decree that will give i
i to Mrs. Lepore her rights to her wid
, ow’s share in the estate. The decree J
states that the court is convinced from
the evidence submitted that the wom
an's claims are just and that she is in
fact the widow of the deceased. That
the wedding was solemnized July 1,
1896, and that Victor Mariano Lepore,
now nine years of age, is the son of the
deceased priest is also asserted in the
document.

THIRTY-FOUR PERSONS KILLED
i
Texas Trainmen Disregard Orders and ,
Terrible Wreck Follows.
El Paso, Texas. —In a collision be
tween the south-bound El Paso ex
press and a north-bound freight on the
Mexican Central, at En Carnacion de
Dios, a few miles from Aguas Calien
tes, thirty-four were killed and nine
teen injured, making the worst wreck
on that road in years. Telegraph lines ,
were broken by the wreck and only ,
meager details obtainable. It is im
possible to obtain a list of dead or in- ]
jured. All those killed were in the day '
coaches. The passenger train was in
charge of Conductor Uandleman and
Engineer Brock. It is believed that 1
four bodies are yet in the wreckage. |
The dead and wounded were taken to
Aguas Calientes. The wrecked pas
senger train left El Paso Tuesday. I
There are no prominent persons j
among the killed or wounded. The j
disaster is said to have been due to a :
disregard of train orders.
Fined for Trespassing.
The fourth important case won by
the government upon the question
whether it is a crime to violate the
regulations of the secretary of agri
culture has just been decided in the
United States District Court, held at
Deadwood, South Dakota, where Rob
ert B. Bale was found guilty of graz
ing trespass on the Black Hills na
tional forest and fined SIOO and costs.
Mr. Bale at once paid the fine and
was released.
The defendant is a stock owner re
siding south of Rapid City and has
been grazing about 150 head of cattle
in and adjacent to the Black Hills na
tional forest for some years. When
the range in the national forests was
put under administration in 1906 and
the grazing fee system Introduced Mr.
Bale refused to secure a grazing per
mit or to remove his stock from the
forest.
After repeated efforts on the part
, of the local forest officers to persuade
Mr. Bale to remove the stock, he was
finally arrested and in August, 1906,
was indicted by the United States jury
at Deadwood. The trial of the case
was delayed over two terms of court
by an effort to have the case tried at
Deadwood instead of Sioux Falls and
the case was not presented to the jury
until September 4th. The court was
prompt in overruling the defendant’s
demurrer attacking the constitution
ality of the grazing regulations and in
reaching a. decision the jury was out
only fifteen minutes.
Wyoming Man Ends Life.
Cheyenne, Wyo.—W. D. Pease, city
water commissioner, committed sui
cide at the municipal filter bed, nine
miles north of town. The body was
found half an hour after death oc
curred. Pease had been despondent
for some time, realizing that he was
growing old and that his health was
failing. Nine months ago he was re
moved as city engineer because of his
age and this preyed on his mind. This
morning he took two men to the filter
and put them to work. He informed
them just before noon that he was
going down the creek and would soon
return When he did not return they
investigated and found his body.
He had shot himself in the head,
but had failed to inflict a fatal wound.
He then fired a bullet through his
heart. He was seventy-four years of
age, a veteran of the Civil War and
had been connected with the city gov
ernment for twenty-five years.
Hand Torn From Wrist.
Fort Collins, Colo.—While at work
on the engine of the threshing machine
owned by Steve Burdee, Lee Hill was
caught in the fly-wheel and dangcr
| ously and probably fatally injured. He
is now in the Fort Collins hospital. The
machine was at work on the English
j ranch, north of here.
I Hill climbed on the upper part of the
engine to oil the bearings, when he
struck the belt in some manner and
threw it off the wheel. The belt struck
j him and threw him against the rapidly
j revolving fly-wheel. Workmen some
distance away saw Hill fall, and
stopped the engine, but not in time to
save him from terrible injuries. Hia
left hand was torn from the wrist, the
left collar bone was torn ofT, and the
left ear cut away from the head. His
condition is serious, but there is a
chance for his recovery.
DROWNED LIKE
RATS IN GAVE
THREE SCHOOL CHILDREN SEEK
REFUGE FROM CLOUDBURST
AND PERISH.
WATER FILLS THE CAVE
DODIES ARE ENTOMBED BY
FALLING WALLS AFTER
THE FLOOD.
Duranpo, Colo.-—Three children of
Samuel Cook, Julia, fourteen; Rose,
eleven, and Sallie, five years old, were
literally trapped and drowned in a hor* ;
rible fashion Wednesday afternoon. ;
The three children were returning from ;
school and were walking through an ;
orroya, when above them they saw a |
wall of water ten feet high coming
down from a cloudburst in the foothills. ;
Julia, the eldest, believing that she j
saw a chance for shelter, made a heroic
effort to save her sisters, and, regard
less of her own danger, dragged her !
two sisters up the hill to a cave, where j
she believed they would be safe from
the flood.
But the volume of water in the flood
was more than she had calculated and
in spite of her efforts to And a safe
place the water climbed up to where
the three little ones had sought safety i
and they were all drowned. The cave 1
was completely filled with the water
and then the cave fell in, burying the j
bodies.
The girls were missed from home
shortly after the time they should have
returned and a searching party at once
sought them out. The hats of the chil
dren showed where they had been and •
the search followed.
Mind Lives Long After Body Dies.
London. —The annual report of the
lunacy commissioners, published this
week, shows a disquieting increase in
the population of Britain’s asylums.
At the beginning of this year one
out of ever 2S2 persons in England j
and Wales was reported insane. Ten ;
years ago the proportion of Insane per- ;
sons was only one in ever 314. From
18C9 to 190G the population of England
and Wales was increased by 55 1 /** per
cent, and the total insane by 133 per
cent.
The significant fact brought to light
by the report is the spread of senile j
dementia, which alone accounted for
over 38 per cent, of last year’s fresh
lunacy cases. In discussing this phase
of the situation at least one medical ,
authority expressed the belief that we I
] live tj>o long for the kind of work most
of us do.
“The advanced medical knowledge I
of today,” he said, "keeps a multitude
of people alive whose minds and life
tenure are practically worn out. The
present age demands more brain work
and strain from every one than was
demanded only a few years ago. There
is less demand for the people who can
only use their hands.
“The physical wear and tear has de
creased, while brain work and the
strain to the nervous system has in- j
creased. The result is that the mind j
dies and the body is kept alive by
medical science, and this adds to the
growing list of senile dementia cases
in our asylums.”
Democratic—and Dry!
Oklahoma City, Okla. —Oklahomahas
ratified the enabling act and become a
state so far as Oklahoma and Indian
Territory are concerned. The new
state goes dry, according to yesterday’s
vote, and it is Democratic. It is now
up to President Roosevelt to sign the
enabling act.
Returns from the largest cities and
counties of Oklahoma and Indian Ter
ritory indicate that the constitution of
the proposed new state has been
adopted by a large majority; that
the prohibition clause of the con
stitution has been adopted, and that
the Democratic state ticket, headed by
C. N. Haskell of Muskogee for gov
ernor has been elected over Frank
Frantz, the present territorial governor
of Oklahoma, who was the Republican
nominee.
Say He Thurst .Body .of .Victim in
Trunk.
Victoria, B. C. —Trouble has arisen
with regard to the extradition of W. H.
Adsell, arrested for murder at Chefoo
and taken aboard the United States
cruiser Galveston. It is alleged that
he killed Gertrude Dayton, an Ameri
can woman, in a Hong Kong hotel,
and crowded the remains in a trunk
which he caused to be placed on the
steamer Monteagle. The British au
thorities are endeavoring to secure the
extradition of the accused to Hong
Kong for trial, but the United States
government refuses to give him up and
has notified the United States consul
general at Chefoo to proceed against
him.
Slip of Girl Bags Wildcat.
, - -
Florence, Colo. —Connie Meecham, a
thirteen-year-old girl, while picnicking
on Castle Rock with Mrs. Fred Wil
lard and Ellen Blunt, shot and killed
a large bobcat with a .22 caliber rifle.
They were sitting oo a rock when they
say two large cats below them. They
threw a rock at the animals and one
of them made its escape, while the
other ran under a rock. Mrs. Willard
and Miss Blunt were left to watch the
cat while the Meecham girl walked
two miles to the Willard home and
secured the gun. Upon returning, she
shot the cat through the head, killing I
it instantly.
Stole Her Babes.
Cheyenne, Wyo.—Mrs. John McCon
nell and four children were arrested
at Sidney, Nevada, and were brought
fo Cheyenne. The children were to
have been taken to the South Dakota
Orphans’ Home, but were spirited out
of the state. The children are now at
the county poor farm, but will be taken
to South Dakota.
H. H. ROGERS DROPS $40,000,000
Said to Have Invested Heavily In Tide
water Railway Project and Lost.
New York. —Reports have been cur
rent on Wall street for some time that
H. H. Rogers of the Standard Oil Com
pany had been heavily interested in
tho tidewater railway project in Vir
ginia and that he had lost heavily by
the investment. The Evening Post
says that it can be stated positively
that Mr. Rogers incurred a personal
obligation in the tidewater project
much in excess of $40,000,000. The
Post also says tho situation has been
entirely cleared up.
The Evening Post says: “Confirma
tion was obtained in Wall street of re
ports to the effect that H. H. Rogers
was heavily interested in the tidewater
railway project.
‘‘According to the stories previously
circulated, upwards of forty per cent,
of Mr. Rogers’ fortune has been in
volved in the tidewater investment It
was reported today that the personal
obligation incurred amounted to $40,-
000,000. It can be stated positively
that the sum is much larger than the
amount named, also that the situation
has been entirely cleared up.
"In order to meet the demands made
upon him in connection with the con
struction of the railroad, Mr. Rogers
was forced to dispose of a large
amount of investment stock at a sacri
fice. All during the recent decline in
prices the vice president of the Stand
ard Oil Company sold gilt-edged
stocks, such as Standard Oil, Consoli
dated Gas, Union Pacific and St. Paul.
To Simplify Freight Situation.
Chicago.—A long step forward in the
simplification of the freight situation
j through-out the United States was
1 taken at a meeting in the Central
, Freight Association headquarters. The I
I joint committee, composed of repre
' sentatives from the three classitica
: tion territories, decided on unification,
and within thirty days a new commit- •
tee will be appointed to undertake the ;
solution of this problem.
The difficulties arising from dlversi
! fled classification have been many and i
j varied. Only recently the Interstate j
, Commerce Commission suggested that |
since the different classification of
freight in different parts, of the coun
try had been responsible for a large
l part of the friction between shipper |
and carrier, it. would be wise to adopt j
; one that would apply generally.
! The task presented to this new com- j
mittee will be a difficult one. Roads !
operating east of the Mississippi river
and north of the Ohio and Potomac :
have what is known as the official clas
sification; those south of the Ohio and
Pot-cmac and east of the Mississippi,
; the southern classification, and those ,
north of the Mississippi the western
! classification. Not tin* least difficult i
proposition in this revision is to find a
basis that will be equitable to operat- j
ing under dissimilar circumstances. j
In the East, where heavy traffic origl- i
nates, and hauls are comparatively
short, a lower rate can be maintaintd
than in the West, where traffic is
sparse and the hauls are long. In view
of this fact It is probable that a sliding
scale will have to be adopted.
Built Fire With Oil—Dead!
Sugar City, Colo. —The child of
George Schwartz was burned to death,
Mrs. Catherine Hell was fatally in
jured and her son, Carl, probably mor
tally hurt by an explosion which took
place in the Heil home, when Mrs.
Heil attempted to light a fire with the
aid of kerosene.
At the time, Mrs. Heil and the
Schwartz child, whose home is close?
by, were in the Heil kitchen and Carl
Heil was in an adjoining room asleep.
The explosion ignited the clothing of
both the child and woman. The son,
awakened hv the screams of both,
rushed to their assistance and in beat
ing out the flames which enfolded his
mother was terribly burned.
While young Heil was battling with
the flames which enfolded his mother,
the Schwartz child burned to
death. It is stated tonight that Mrs.
Heil cannot possibly recover and that
her son is in a precarious condition.
This is the second accident of a simi
lar nature to have occurred here with
in the week.
Duel to Death on Hay Wagon
Sturgis, S. D.—To settle a long stand
ing feud over their right t.o certain
lands, Lon Ferris, a Virginian, and
Jesse Wallace, a Texan, neighboring
ranchmen, fought a duel to the death
on the range north of here. For fifteen
minutes both men battled for suprem
acy on the top of a hay wagon, first
with their fists and then with revolv
ers.
Ferris finally succeeded in killing
Wallace with the latter’s own gun, and
then rode to town, where he gave him
self up. He declared that Wallace and
a friend named Anderson, a neighbor,
who watched the battle from the
bushes, and was the only witness of
the tragedy, had waylaid iiim at work,
and Wallace challenged him to settle
accounts. Ferris is married, while Wal
lace was single.
Cruel Treatment Cause of It.
South Bend, Ir.d.—When dared to
show his nerve, Albert E. Peverette of
South Bend, who is serving a term for
the Richland, Mich., bank robbery in
Marquette prison, picked up a piece of
glass and cut off his left hand.
The fact came out in an investiga
tion now being conducted at Mar
quette for the purpose of learning the
truth about alleged cruelties practiced
in the prison. According to Peverette,
he would no longer stand abuse and
when he was told to prepare himself
for another beating, he replied that
he would cut olt one of his hands be
fore he would submit to further 111
treatment. Jeered at by the keeper,
he promptly carried his threat into exe
| cution.
Trinidad Enjoys a Boom.
Trinidad, Colo. —Work has com
menced on the erection of a $25,000
apartment house to be located at the
corner of Colorado and Arizona ave
nues. The structure will be of stone
and brick. Trinidad is enjoying a
building boom and several other cost
ly residences are In the course of con
struction.
The Great American Boss. |
The average American is blase al
most before the English girl is ready
to leave her school, says a writer. The
English girl never leaves her govern
ess and home before she is eighteen,
while at the same age tho American
girl has seen much of the world. Yet
the American girl retains her vivacity
and her interest in everything, and it
is that one quality, I think, above all
others, that wins for her the admira
tion of the English woman. The
American woman never looks to her
husband as master, while the English
woman is taught to do so from her
birth—Tit-Bits.
Depends on the Dogs.
Asa Goddard of the American Auto
mobile association was recounting
In Worcester some of his touring ad
ventures.
"One summer morning,” he said,
“the approach of a great flock of sheep
obliged me to pull off the narrow coun
try road. I halted my car, and
watched with interest the passage of
the sheep, the intelligent dogs and the
shepherd.
“I had a short talk with the shep
herd about his odd and difficult trade.
“ Took here,’ I said, ‘what do you
do, driving sheep like this on a narrow
road, when you meet another flock
coming in the opposite direction?’
“ ‘Well/ said the shepherd, ‘ye Just
drive straight on, both of ye, and the
one that has the best dogs gets th*'
most sheep.’ ”
He Ate the Toothpicks.
A well-known sculptor tells the fol
lowing story: “Whenever I see a
toothpick I think of a dinner that was
given in Rome in honor of two Turkish
noblemen.
"I sat beside the younger of the no
: blemen. He glittered with gold em
: broidery and great diamonds, but nov
el theless I pitied him sincerely, for ho
was strange to our table manners, and
, some of his errors were both ludicrous
; and painful.
; toothpicks. He waived tho plate away,
extended to the young man a plate of
toothpicks. He waved the plate away,
saying in a low and bitter voice:
"No, thank you; I have already eaten
two of the accursed things, and I want
no more.”
“All In” in Law.
| In the recent case of State vs. Hen
nessy, 90 Pac. Rep. 221, the Nevada
Supreme Court gives a definition of
the "slang phrase "all in.” The ques
tion came up in connection with the
admission in evidence of a dying decla
ration, the declarant’s statement that
ne was “all In” being relied on to show
that he was under a sense of impending
death.
The court said: "The expression ‘I
am all in,’ is one frequently made use
of in this western country, and when
( used under the circumstances in ques
! tion may, we think, be taken to have
meant that the speaker considered his
life practically at an end.” —Law
Notes.
Considerate Bridegroom.
A Belleville girl and a young man,
both of whom had steady jobs, were
married the other day. The day after
they were married the girl said to her
fond husband: "Oh, George, now that
we are married, there is only one thing
I regret, and that is that I have to give
up my fine position.” The fond young
husband stroked the silken tresses of
the young wifey’s hair, and soothingly
replied: “Now, darling, don’t worry.
You needn't give up your position. I’ll
give up mine.” —Kansas City Star.
“Habit” and “Vice.”
The subject of women’s smoking has
almost ceased to be discussed; it is
generally taken for granted that wo
men will smoke, even when dining in
public, while a smoking room is found,
as a matter of course, at every wo
man’s club. But while society and pro
fessional women now smoke without
protest, one learns, not without sur
prise, that the habit in which they in
: dulge is rapidly becoming a vice of the
; working-class girl.—Ladies’ Pictorial.
The Real Roar.
It was the morning after their ar
rival at a seaside resort.
"I have often heard of the roar of
the ocean,” she said, dreamily, “but I
never knew it sounded like that."
"That’s not the roar of the ocean,”
answered her more experienced hus
ban. "That’s the roar of a departing
guest who has just been presented
with his bill.” —Judge.
True Chivalry.
Her (sighing)—Oh, I met such a
lovely, polite man today.
Him—Where was that?
Her—On the street. I must have
been carrying my umbrella carelessly,
for he bumped his eye into it. And I
said, "Pardon me,” and he said, "Don’t
mention It—l have another eye left.”—
