THE NEW ERA
WALDEN, - - - • COLORADO.
A Woman Without Homo Duties.
A woman who has no home duties,
or who does not attend to such duties,
Is a pest to her acquaintances. It may
take her a long time to make her
breakfast toilet, but her outside gar
ments go on like magic when she has
once decided to make a morning or
afternoon call. She will not work, and
she will not lot her neighbors work.
Her acquaintances are kept in a state
of chronic discomfort in the expecta
tion of a visit, and a door-bell in her
▼icinity cannot ring without striking
terror to the heart of the lady of the
house. A call from this idle person
means simply loss of time without the
slightest compensation. The work in
the kitchen or the nursery must be
abandoned, and this means, with prac
tical, conscientious housekeepers, not
only a giving up of the work for the
time, but for a considerable time. The
work planned for that day, and omit
ted for that day, means overwork at
another time, confusion and anxiety.
What can be more exasperating' than
to be compelled to entertain an idle
person to the neglect of necessary
duties? It occasionally arouses all
the antagonism and latent ugliness in
one’s nature. Hands and brain are all
ready for the work which has been de
ferred for this time. “When will she
go?” the spirit keeps asking. “If she
will only go now I can rush through
with the work, and the morning will
not be a lost one.” But the visitor
does not go. In fact, it is a rare thing
for this particular kind of caller to
take her leave until the utmost limit
of time is reached, as well as the ut
most limit of her hostess’ patience.
So, declares the New York Weekly,
sensible ladies protect themselves by
feeling at liberty to report thnt they
are engaged when the Idle woman
thrusts her company upon people who
do not admire her or her conversa
tion.
Department Store at Close Range.
Because it is volume of businesi
that counts, every department store,
of course, tries to keep stock as low
as possible. Everything must be kept
moving. Under the old system a store
would buy a whole year’s supply ol
staples and a season’s supply of other
goods. But it is not so now, and the
modern method throws upon the
shoulders of manufacturer and whole
saler the risks that formerly were as
Burned by the retail store, to the grave
disorganization of the business ol
those who supply the big stores. Most
women know that as a rule the things
offered in bargain sales are sold below
the actual cost of manufacture, says
Karley Davis in Everybody’s. Now
the bargain sale is popularly supposed
to serve a double purpose—to attract
people to the store and to get rid oi
old goods. The first proposition Is
always true, while the latter applies
to only about one-tenth of the bargain
sales. The manufacturer stands the
loss, for there is a very considerable
loss, of the other nine-tenths. It is
axiomatic among the department store
owners that there is always a manu
facturer who is willing to sell some oi
his output at a great sacrifice. It may
be because he finds himself stocked
with goods for which there is no de
mand at the prices for which they
were made to sell; oftener, he is hard
pressed for ready money. But what
ever the cause, the result is a bar
gain sale in a department store. And
in all cases, except the one bargain
sale in ten, by which the store is get
ting rid of its own goods that haven’t
been sold, the establishment makes
its regular standard profit.
It is stated that English scientists
are giving Lowell observatory credit
for establishing the existence of arti
ficial canals on Mars, and English phy
sicians and artists are endorsing Prof.
Starr’s theory that children should gc
naked for ten years or so. Thanks,
awfully; but America in general would
prefer credit for the Panama canal
and its unrivaled lines of children's
clothing, both of which are better
suited to plain, everyday navigation
than the ideas advanced in England
America has some brilliant thinkers
but its long suit is common sense.
A former famous football player ol
Princeton proposes to go down to Cen
tral America and take a hand in the
political game there. He probably
thinks that after several campaigns
on college football fields a little scrim
mage like a Latln-American revolution
will be hardly worth mentioning.
A St. Louis man had his head
shaved and his wife told him that he
needn't come home. If a determined
woman is not to have her favorite ex
ercise of hauling man about by the
hair what possible use can she have
for the masculine animal?
Thirty cents is the amount at whict
a Chicago judge valued a woman’s
broken heart in a breach-of-proraise
suit recently. At this rate it is more
profitable to get an arm broken in r
streetcar accident
BRYAN BUILDS THE PLATFORM
Reflects His Views on National Decla
rations in 1908.
Lincoln, Neb. —Under the new state
direct primary law this was the day
designated for all political parties rep
resented on the primary ballot to hold
their state platform conventions. Of
the five parties, three —the Repub
-1 lican. Democratic and Populist—gath
ered In considerable numbers. The
Prohibitionists held no convention,
and the Socialists were without repre
sentation, save for one delegate, who
certified to a platform and organiza
tion with the secretary of state.
The feature of the Democratic con
vention was the speech of William J.
Bryan. Ho congratulated the party,
state and national, on having emerged
from the valley of the shadow of death,
which, he said, the Republicans, hope
lessly divided, were Just entering.
Mr. Bryan assisted In drafting the
platform, and Its declarations are as-
Btimed to reflect his views of what the
national party declarations should be
In 1908.
The platform opens with commen
dation of William J. Bryan.
It further approves of the laws pro
hibiting the pass and rebate and in
sists on further legislation making it
unlawful for any corporation to con
tribute to campaign funds.
It opposes the centralization idea
and declares for the election of Unit
ed States senators by direct vote.
Immediate revision of the tariff is
urged and an income tax favored.
On the question of trusts, the plat
form says, in part:
“A private monopoly is indefensible
and intolerable. We, therefore, favor
the vigorous enforcement of the crim
inal law against trusts and trust mag
nates and demand the enactment of
such additional legislation as may be
necessary to make it impossible for a
private monopoly to exist in the Unit
ed States.”
Declarations are made for state and
national boards of trade and an eight
hour day, against government by in
junction and for protection of foreign
ers.
Cross the Bar Together.
New York.—Unable to overcome
their grief for the death of their pine
teen-year-old son a year ago, Mr. and
Mrs. Maurice Helm, a middle-aged
couple who were deeply devoted to
each other, ended their lives together
Sunday night in their home at No. 1069
Boston Road, the Bronx.
Carefully packing their household
goods and labeling them for disposition
and writing letters to explain their ac
tion, they removed the tip from a gas
jet in their bedroom and lay down sido
by side on two coats that had been
drawn closely togethetr. Thus they
were found dead, their hands clasping
in a last embrace.
One of the letters was addressed “To
Whom It May Concern,” and read:
“Nobody is to be blamed for our act.
We died voluntarily. It is our desire
to cross the bar together. Since the
death of our much-beloved and high!*/
talented son, with whom all our hopes
were buried, life has indeed not been
worth the living for us. The sun had
set and overhead was nothing but :i
cold gray sky. We have become use
less and superfluous, wherefore after
due consideration we have deemed it
advisable to disappear together from
the surface of the earth.”
The letter was signed Mrs. Maurico
Helm, nee Annie Lowe, fifty years old,
and Maurice Helm, fifty-two years old,
and it was_ blotted as if by tears.
Ate Postmaster’s Profit.
Douglas, Wyo.—The little postolfice
at Hampshire is to be discontinued for
the reason that the postmaster could
no longer afford to feed the people that
came for their mail. The Hampshire
postoffice is located at the ranch of the
Laramie Mountain Sheep Company and
was established for the convenience* of
neighboring ranch owners and their
employes.
In a short time the business of the
postoffice has grown to considerable
proportions as to iucoming mail, but
the sale of stamps, from which the
postmaster derived his income, only
amounted to about $2 a week. As is
customary, neighbors calling for th«ir
mail remained to one or more meals,
I aggregating, according to the manager
of the ranch, who is also postmaster,
1 about SSOO per year in victuals con
sumed.
I At a meeting of the stockholders of
i the sheep company, one of whom is
Mrs. Kate Turner, a wealthy Cheyenne
widow, it was decided that it was
cheaper to send to Douglas for ‘lie
■ mall.
' “Devil Drivers” Kill Boy?
Chicago.—Excitement in Zion City
City over the torturing to death of aged
Mrs. Lelilia Greenhaulgh by a band of
1 religious fanatics was intensified yes
, Jerday by the rumor that a nine-year-
I old boy, suffering from typhoid fever.
I had been killed by the same methods.
It is said that the “devil drivers”
! prayed, shouted and sang while the dy
ing boy pleaded for medicinal help and
i i drink of water. After Ills death it is
said the discovery was made that his
tongue had been slit its entire length
as if by a sharp knife, and the investi
gators desire to know if this was done
to prevent him talking.
I The entire city is covered with post
ers warning all inhabitants about talk
ing to strangers or discussing in any
way any of the recent sensational oc
’ currences.
Everything Went “Mexican.”
! Trinidad, Colo. —One Mexican is
dead, another is dying and three are
in a serious condition as the result of
a cutting and shooting affray in a
saloon at Segundo, fifteen miles west
of here. The dead man is Andrea Sal-
I azar. .Tuan C. Tafoya is suffering
from bullet and knife wounds, while
. Fidel Arguello, Chano Bruno and Ju
lian Munez are in jail awaiting the re
sult of the coroner’s investigation.
A “Mexican” was given in what is
known as Old Segundo, and the trag
edy is the result of rivalry for the af
fections of a girl. Salazar’s body Is
literally cut Into ribbons. Little is
known of him here, he having come to
this section recently from old Mexico,
i Tafoya is a son of Santiago Tafoya,
now serving a life sentence at Canon
p City for murder.
UNCLE SAM
MUST FIGHT
JAPAN SAID TO BE PREPARING
FOR A TILT WITH THE
UNITED STATES.
SEC. TAFT’S TRIP EYED
PAPER SAYS UNITED' STATES IS
REACHING OUT FOR MASTERY
OF THE PACIFIC.
St. Petersburg. Secretary Taft s
tour of the world is being followed
with unusual Interest here. The gov
ernment Is taking measures to sur
round the journey through Siberia aud
European Russia with attentions usu
ally observed for the rulers of states,
and the press is busily speaking on the
likelihood and advantage of a Russo-
American convention, the object of
Mr. Taft’s visit to Russia being, It is
alleged, to negotiate an agreement be
tween the United States and Russia.
The conviction prevails here that
war between Japan and the United
States is inevitable In the distant fu
ture. The Novoe Vremya published an
article entitled "The New World Pow
er,” picturing the marvelous growth of
America as a sea power during Presi
dent Roosevelt’s administration, warn
ing Russian diplomacy “not to bo
caught unawares by coming events,”
and adding:
"The day when the United States
fleet passes out of the Straits of Ma
gellan and sweeps proudly into the wa
ters of the Pacific will open a new era
for the eastern world. Official cour
tesies and the temporary lull in war
taiK do not conceal the fact that Amer
ica is reaching out for the mastery of
the Pacific and already is strong
enough to attain it.
“She entered the race for it in tho
spring of 1903, when Congress voted
the navy bill and the Panama bill, both
essential to the object in view. With
out any noise except the ceaseless rum
ble of machinery, the mighty nation
succeeded In forging a sea power al
ready including thirty-five battleships
and having its docks crowded with
many more war vessels. The American
people are not lured by the glamour of
mere display. The purposes are deeper.
Kindred of England, the American’s
creed is that commerce follows the
flag. Her object is incompatible with
mere desire for trade in the Far East.
England won the throne of the Atlantic
from Spain, Holland and France.
America Js about to challenge her ri
val for the throne of the Pacific.”
Refused to Be Shot Full of Holes.
Denver.—The genuine pinching kid
has been discovered. He goes by the
name of Charles V. Hull. He is “Billy
the Pincher” most of the time and a
printer on the side, according to the
allegations contained in an application
for divorce filed in the County Court
by Nellie Hull of 401 Lipan street.
Mrs. Hull says that since their mar
riage in Berthoud, Colorado. November
13, 1904, up to the time of his desertion
several months ago, Hull has pinched
her nose, pinched her ears, pinched her
shoulders, pinched her arms and
pinched her toes.
Her attorney, Isaac Dunn, filed as an
exhibit in the suit this itinerary:
Jan. 28, 1905—He took mo by the
shoulders and shook me until my teeth
chattered; also threw me to the floor
and kicked me.
March 1, 1906—He landed an upper
cut on my chin that made me see stars
and several moons.
Same day, later—Invited mo to get a
revolver, so that he could kill me; re
fused invitation.
March 20, 1906—Sent home a right
swing and I went down for the count.
Jan. 1, 1907—Ditto the foregoing. I
alighted on my head and it was several
hours before I fully realized what had
happened.
July 15, 1907—Pinched me wickedly.
Sept. 8, 1907—More pinching; also
waved a revolver and said: “Get to
the yard and let me see how many
holes I can put into you.” Tills Invita
tion was also turned down.
There are other dates, but they are
not given, to avoid repetition.
Peculiar Situation in Wills.
New York. —The will of Paul Mac-
Cornnic, the clubman and automobil- |
1st, who died from injuries received in i
an automobile accident recently near i
South Norwalk, Connecticut, in which |
his wife was killed, has been found in (
the safe of A. C. Starita, his former
attorney. By the terms, of the instru
ment, Mrs. MacCormac was made the
sole beneficiary, but her death has
brought about an unusual situation.
Mrs. MacCormac, in her will, left (
the bulk of her estate to her husband. (
She bequeathed $10,000 to be invested ,
in an annuity for Joseph Adler Con- \
verse, her eleven-year-old son by her
first husband, from whom she was di
vorced. Mrs. MacCormac was killed
on August 25th. Her will was Elated j
February, 1905, and in it she left her
house in Connecticut to her second ,
husband and made him trustee for her
son, who is with his father, Charles
Converse. i
Mr. MacCormac died soon after his
wife. His will left all of his estate to i
his wife without any stipulation as to i
its disposal In case of her death. His j
estate is estimated at about $500,000, i
most of it invested in securities which j
.are believed to he in a safe deposit
! vault in this city. The MaeCormacs
. had no issue, so that now both estates
jwPl be divided among relatives of Mr.
MacCormac.

sion in the entire West.
COPPER WILL GO TO 20 CENTS.
This Is the Opinion of E. A. Norton,
Authority.
Denver.—The present depression in
the copper market is caused by the
concerted action of European consum
ers. according to the opinion of E. A.
Norton of Denver, and the metal will
shortly find its price level, which he
places at from 20 to 22 cents. Mr. Nor
ton is interested with English and
New York and Virginia capitalists in
the ownership of the Penn-Wyoming
Copper Company, operating large prop
erties at Encampment, near the Wyo
ming-Colorado line in the North park
country.
“The average price of copper for
twenty-five years was 14% cents.” said
Mr. Norton, "but it will not be that
low again for any length of time. Th*.*
demand is so great that the present
quotation of 16 to 17 cents can not long
prevail. 1 have recently visited the
largest consumers in Europe, and I am
satisfied from the Information gained
there t hat copper will shortly settle
down to from 20 to 22 cents and re
main at that standard price.”
Mr. Norton is entertaining the own
ers of the copper properties in which
he is interested. The same capitalists
own 91,000 acres of lund In Carbon
county. Wyoming, and are now en
gaged in placing it under irrigation.
Asmus Jury Disagrees.
Fort Morgan, Colo. —The jury in the
case of John Asmus and Zara Moon,
charged with the murder of Robert Mc-
Dowell reported to Judge Burke that
the members could not reach an agree
ment and the jury was discharged
The jury stood eight to lour for ac
quittal from the first and the count lid
not change throughout the entire delib
erations. although ballot after ballot
was taken. The jurors in favor of ac
quittal were firm in their conviction,
and no amount of balloting or deliber
ation would change them, and the four
on the other side were in the same
frame of mind as to changing their
votes.
The cost of the trial of the two men
lias been enormous for Morgan county,
and in view of the fact that, the sents
- metit of the jury was in the ma
jority for an acquittal many ox
press the opinion that, there will not
be another trial of the case, as the pen.
pie do not relish being saddled with
the expense of a second trial.
Moon and Asmus were released on
$9,000 bail
A new bond was required, which
was promptly furnished The jurors
in the case were discharged for tho re
mainder of the term, as Judge Burke
said that men who had sat on a ease
Tor fifteen days and nights had earned
exemption for a year.

Both Shoulders Broken.
Canon City. Colo. —John Ripley,
aged eighty two years, one of the pio
neer ranchmen of Fremont county, had
both shoulders broken by falling from
bis wagon one mile east of this city.
Ripley left early in the day for Twin
mountains for a load of wood.
About dusk the team was discovered
bv W. R. Scott coming into the city
alone. Scott secured the team and

MEANS MUCH
TO COLORADO
NORTHERN COLORADO POWER
PLANT INSTALLED AT LAFAY
ETTE READY FOR BUSINESS.
TWO ELECTRIC LINES
NEW FEATURE INJECTED WHICH
WILL GIVE ADDED BENEFIT
TO PATRONS.
Denver.—There has been installed
at the Northern Colorado Power plant,
near Lafayette, an electric turbine
costing $65,000. Another turbine of the
same cost and size will be installed in
two weeks. These two great engines
will furnish 6,500-horse power for the
running of an electric line from Den
ver through Northern Colorado us far
as Greeley.
At the same time President Barker
of the power company, who is also vice
president of the Denver Gas & Electric
Company, announced that, having se
cured a franchise for a street car line
in Cheyenne, he would be able to con
struct the line with Denver and Colo
rado capital.
Thus two great enterprises are as
sured that require an investment of
several millions of dollars without ask
ing anything but legitimate private in
vestment, with only returns promised
coming to investors through the oper
ation of the companies.
The grade for the electric road is
now practically complete, paralleling
the Colorado & Southern tracks from
Denver as far as Louisville. Eighty
five pound rails necessary for the track
are now on their way to Denver, and
wire is being strung to carry the cur
rent. The system will be an overhead
'trolley, but a feature never before used
will bo a plan of alternating currents,
which will conserve the power and give
greater facilities for the movement of
business.
-t is announced officially that trains
will be running over the road by
spring. The entire scheme has been
financed and tho bonds floated.
The road will carry both passengers
and light express freight. The whole
plan has been carried through and tho
money subscribed without appealing to
the moneyed interests of the state ex
cepting in a legitimate way, offering
the investment privately for what it
may be worth as an investment.
SAYS AFFIDAVIT IS FABRICATION
Denies Prosecution Is in Any Way Po
litical Persecution.
Phoenix, Ariz. —Justus Goebel, a
brother of the late Governor Goebel of
Kentucky, residing In Phoenix, com
menting on the affidavit made by a
woman in Richmond, Indiana, who al
leges that Governor Goebel was killed
by Turner Igo, at the instigation oL
the son of John Sanford, says the
story is pure fabrication. He says the
facts as set forth in the affidavit are
so at variance with the proved facts
that they cannot be considered.
He denies that the prosecution of
any person is a political persecution.
He says that the only persons inter
ested in the prosecution are himself
and his brother, Arthur, of Cincinnati,
and such friends as may aid them in
avenging the death of the governor.
They have no desire to convict an in
nocent man and thus shield the real
murderer, and for this reason they
have followed every reported clew,
each of which, if not. utterly discred
ited, was finally traced back to Taylor
and Powers. Continuing, he said:
"The prosecution, which lias been
conducted without abatement of en
thusiasm for eight years, will be con
ducted as long as there is a Goebel,
young or old. alive, and until the guilty
parties have been brought to justice.
We will get Governor Taylor sooner or
later, as he cannot always find an asy
lum in Indiana."
Perfectly Good Husband Spoiled.
Chicago.—Mrs. Franklin V. Elder,
who until yesterday was Miss Blanche
Buckley of Louisville, loaned her hus
band to his bachelor friends for a fare
well supper last night. When sho
loaned him he was a perfectly good
husband, with a beautiful mustache, a
handsome head of hair and a wedding
smile. She smilingly warned them to
let Frank come homo early, because
they start today for their new home at
Seattle. When her husband was re
turned to her Mrs. Elder had a bad
shock.
His friends had during the course of
their farewell dinner clipped his hair
close, cut off his beautiful mustache,
painted his head red and blackened his
face with charcoal. Friends escorted
Mr. Elder forcibly about town for exhi
bition purposes. Then they returned
him to his bride, who, with the aid of
a scrubbing brush, started in to make
him presentable, while her husband
vowed murder against his "friends.'’
Rewarded for Heroism.
Chicago.—A Tribune special from
Kendall, Wisconsin, says: John Frank
lin. a Northwestern engineer running
between here and Sparta, has received
a check for SIO,OOO with a promise of
another, for saving the life of a woman
at Devil’s Lake a few weeks ago.
Franklin, with his wife, was spend
ing a few days at the lake. At tho
same time William Peterson, a
wealthy Chicago man, with his wife,
daughter and Miss Jenkins, a sister
in-law, also was encamped at the lake.
One morning while out in a boat tho
girl and Miss Jenkins rowed over to a
spring to get a drink. As Miss Jen
kins attempted to get back into the
boat she slipped, falling into tho
water. The impact drove the craft
from shore, and, although she man
aged to get hold of the boat, she could
not draw herself from the water.
Franklin rescued hor just as her
strength was about failing her.
Miss Jenkins was one of tho few
who escaped from the Iroquois theater
holocaust in Chicago, and says she
fears she is to die a violent death.
KIDNEYJTROUBLf

Transmission of Warts.
| “Recent experiments show that th»
popular belief that warts are con.
, municable is warranted,” says a
• writer. “Inoculation of healthy tissue
with blood obtained from a wart will
cause the growth of a similar ex-
I crescence. It is thought that these
growths contain an ultramicroscopic
germ to which Is due the transmission
