THE NEW ERA
-WALDEN, . - - . - COLORADO.
All In One Trunk.
A New York woman recently won a
suit against a transfer company for
the value of articles contained in a
trunk which was lost in transit from
her summer home to her city resi
dence. The trunk was a large one—of
the “Saratoga” variety—and the claim
ant affirmed that it contained person
al property to the amount of $750.
The abbreviated list of articles filled
three inches of small type. Many
items were indefinitely described,
“stockings” and “yien’s underwear”
being examples. But it was explicitly
stated that the trunk held, among
many things, 17 gowns and 15 skirts,
ten pairs of boots, five sweaters, ten
lace curtains, five bedspreads, four
blankets, two rugs and a large assort
ment of cutlery—in short, a liberal
wardrobe for two persons and practi
cally all the belongings of their cot
tage, omitting the sea-breezes, the
hammocks and the mosquitoes. The
average man has a place for every
thing and keeps everything in it; yet,
says the Youth’s Companion, he can
scarcely put a razor and six handker
' chiefs into a s.iit case without leaving
somethig to lap over the edges, and if
he has the misfortune to be a bachelor
he will view the catalogue with skep
ticism. But many a head of a family
will put aside his doubts, and may
even declare that his own wife could
have found room for even more in the
trunk. She has taught him the fem
inine version of a familiar law of
physics, which is, that two objects can
occupy the same space at the same
time, because one can go inside the
other.
White Mice on the Flag.
Lieut. R. G. Hervey, of the British
navy, has designed a flag for the use
of submarines. The flag measures 18
by 12 feet and its background is in
three vertical sections, one colored yel
low, another red and the third blue.
In the center is a black shield, divided
into four parts, two of which are oc
cupied by a submarine and three tor
pedoes. In each of the remaining
quarters is a white mouse rampant.
This 1b the first time white or any
other colored mice have appeared on
a flag. The explanation of their pres
ence on the submarine flag is that
white mice are always carried on a
submarine boat as a safeguard to the
crew, says the Montreal Gazette. Ro
dents are ctfffsTderably more sensitive
than men to noxious gases, such as
those which have a tendency to ac
cumulate In a submarine, and immedi
ately the mice show signs of collapse
It is known that there fs danger, and
accordingly the boat is brought to the
surface.
It is never safe to generalize from
incomplete data; but a New York
physician has drawn some interesting
conclusions from an examination of
the lives of 74 great men and women.
In a paper read before the Interna
tional Congress on Psychiatry, or men
tal diseases, the physician—a woman
—said that comparatively few
geniuses were the first-born of their
parents; in fact, only 10 of the 74
whom she considered were the eldest
children. In many cases the genius of
the family had been the youngest.
Coleridge was the last of 13 children;
Washington Irving the last of 11;
Franklin the youngest son in a family
of 17, and the youngest son of the
youngest son of several generations;
Daniel Webster and Wagner the last
of seven, Rembrandt the sixth, and
Schumann the last of five.
An amazing instance of human per
fldy was brought to the attention of
the police the other day. says the Buf
falo Express. A young man com
plained that his uncle had promised to
drop five dollars a month in his infan
tile savings bank if ho abstained from
liquor, tobacco and froward conduct
until he attained his majority. The
lad avers that he has faithfully kept
his part of the contract, but that on
opening the bank he found it empty,
whereas it should have contained SBOO.
Thus the complainant has missed all
the delights of youth and has nothing
to compensate him except his good
habits.
Nevertheless, let’s hope that Miss
Vanderbilt will be happy with her
$12,000,000 fortune. It is a good
deal of a burden, but there are ways
of lightening it. Among the least ad
mirable of these may be mentioned
marrying a foreign gentleman with a
title to support.
A number of Japanese officials have
been sent to Switzerland for the pur
pose of stiulyfng tho methods of Swiss
hotel keepers. Japan is bound to
learn. Delegations may yet come
from that country for tho purpose of
finding out about tho American board
ing house.
According to the census report
1,733,332 divorces were granted during
the last 20 years. This is proof that
the courts have been busy issuing
clearing house certificates themselve*.
WOODMEN’S SANATORIUM.
National Home for Consumptives Is
Planned by Modern Woodmen.
Denver.—The Modern Woodmen of
America will at once purchase 1,000
acres of- land near Colorado Springs
as a site for a national consumptive
sanatorium for its members and their
families. Buildings and tents are to
ho erected next spring at a cost of $50,-
000, and patients will be given treat
ment at actual cost to the institution.
Announcement of the project was
made by A. Talbot of Lincoln, Ne
braska, head consul of the Modern
Woodmen of America, who came to
Denver to initiate the class of 2C3 can
didates, who were admitted to the or
der Tuesday night in Armory hall.
Talbot was a classmate of William
Jennings Bryan at the Chicago School
of La\v, and it was at Talbot's sugges
tion that Bryan removed to Lincoln,
Nebraska, where tho two men were
law partners for twelve years.
Speaking of the proposed sanitarium
Talbot said: “We intend to make it
a tent farm, where patients can be
treated scientifically and with the
best advantages for sunlight and air.
Colorado Springs was selected after
careful consideration because it is uni-,
versally recommended by tuberculosis
experts as the best site in the country.
We will charge patients only enough
to meet the expenses of the institu
tion, and it-will be one of the best and
cheapest treatments they can receive. ■
The management of the enterprise will
be in the hands of the executive com
mittee of the Modern Woodmen of
America.
"All the expenses of equipment will j
be covered by voluntary subscriptions
of members, and patients will have
very little to pay.
“The Modern Woodmen of America
is the largest fraternal order in the
world. It has a membership of 904,- i
i 000. We have eight lodges in Denver,
with a total membership of 3,000. The
order will celebrate its twenty-fifth an
niversary on January 1, 1908.”
Among the candidates initiated last
night was Mayor Robert W. Speer. Be
fore entering tho hall the mayor was
introduced to “Centennial Willie,” a
real, live, Angora buck goat, the mas
cot of Centennial camp.
The initiation ceremony was pre
ceded by a parade from the Modern
Woodmen hail on Champa street to
the armory at Twenty-third and Cur
tis streets, the national and state offi
cers riding in carriages preceded by
the Modern Woodmen band and the
Ninety-fourth battalion of Foresters. '
F. B. Easterly, state deputy of Colo
rado and Wyoming, presided at the
meeting and introduced Head Consul
A. It. Talbot, who exemplified the Ma
jor degree work. The work was not
completed until after midnight. Fol
lowing are the camps which partici
pated in the joint Initiation: Centen
| nial. Oak, Phoenix, Pearl, Enterprise,
Cherry, Denver and Elyria.
Torrens Act Upheld.
Denver. —Vast property rights ir.
the state are affected by an important
law which the Supreme Court an
; nounced Monday was valid. This is
the Colorado land title law, also
known as the “Torrens act.” passed
by the Legislature in 1903. The de
cision of the court was unanimous, not
a single point upon which its consti
tutionality was attacked being held
tenable.
The case came up from the District
Court of Logan county. It was brought
by Judge Quitman Brown of Sterling
on behalf of S. A. Smith against Miss
Ella Crissman. the county clerk and
recorder, who was ex-ofllcio registrar
of titles. The action was dismissed
by Judge Armour, who held the law
constitutional, and an appeal was
taken to the Supreme Court.
The Torrens law provides for the
I registration of real estate with the
county recorder without the formality
'of abstract transfers. Upon proper ap
! plication and proof of title the recorder
issues a guarantee policy setting forth
; that the person described is the law’
ful owner of the property the policy
covers. In transfers the policy goes
1 with the warranty deed and the change,
of ownership is indorsed on the back.
For recording the transfer a nominal
! fee is charged and the expense of ab
! stract examinations and extensions en
tirely done away with. The general
adoption of the plan will result in the
abolition of the abstract trust.
State Senator Edward T. Taylor of
Glenwood Springs was the author of
the Torrens land law, and when the
case was argued some time ago be
fore the Supreme Court he assisted
the attorney general’s office in defend
ing its constitutionality.
Improved Baggage System.
Denver. —Favorable reports are be
J ing made concerning the new baggage
I system put into effect by some of the
railroads at Denver a few months ago.
This system permits the purchaser of
a coupon ticket at any station where
they are sold, to check his baggage to
actual destination. For instance, a
man in Chicago coming to Denver, may
; check his baggage to a certain rest
dence here and have it delivered with
out being held over till his arrival.
If he stops a week en route there are
no storage charges to pay. and the sys
tem obviates to a certain extent the
danger of lost baggage. The plan op
erates on the Union Pacific road in
Chicago. St. Louis. Omaha. Kansas
j City, Denver, Salt Lake, Ogden, Butter,
i Spokane. Portland. San Francisco and
j Los Angeles.
It is likely that this plan, which or
| iginated in the West with Andrew
I Travnor. general baggage agent, of the
i Union Pacific, will revolutionize the
manner of handling baggage on all
railroads in due time. It insures the
traveling public against, much annoy
ance and bother with checking. The
| regular transfer and delivery charges
| are of course paid by the passenger,
j hut it is all done in advance when the
| ticket is purchased.
TROOPS FOR GOLDFIELD.
Held in Readiness to Respond to Call
of Governor Sparks.
Washington.—President Roosevelt
has issued orders' to have federal
troops held in readiness to aid in re
storing order at Goldfield, Nevada.
This action was taken upon represen
tation from Governor Sparks of that
state that the miners at Goldfield are
in revolt and riot. Nevada is the one
state in the Union which has no Btate
militia. Governor Sparks does not
deem the situation such as to justify
federal interference, but as one likely
at any time to get beyond his ability
;to control. The nearest federal mil
itary base is at San Francisco.
A Goldfield, Nevada, dispatch says\
The executive committee of the Mine
Owners’ Association of Goldfield Wed
nesday night received assurances
from Governor Sparks that tho had
called upon Washington requesting
that government troops be held in
readiness for use In the Nevada min
ing camps, and that a garrison of reg
ulars be established at Goldfield. There
is nothing in the immediate situation
to require the intervention of troops.
The town is as quiet as usual. But,
it is feared by the mine owners that
trouble is brewing and that overt acts
might be committed at any time.
Money has been scarce in Goldfield,
two of the banks closed and cashiers’
checks resorted to by the third bank,
and as all the mines have been shut
down for several days the pine* of pov
erty is being felt by miners, many of
whom are improvident, living from
hand to mouth.
Holdups and burglaries have been
frequent of late, attributable to this
fact, and there is a general feeling of
unrest, which the mine owners fear is
| likely to break out into a general riot
before long. It is protectionary rea
sons more than because of an acute
situation that has impelled the call
for troops.
Hivemeyer's Millions.
Denver. —H. O. Havemeyer, who
j died on Long Island Wednesday, was
about sixty years old. He became a
member of Havemeyer & Elder, sugar
j refiners, In 1869, and a few years later
was made manager. In 1891 he or
ganized the American Sugar Refining
Company, and has been its president
since.
This concern now has a capital of
$76,000,000, and controls the sugar in
terests of the United States. He was
president and director of the Amer
ican Coffee Company, director of the
National City bank, director of the
Alliance Realty Company, a of the Cen
tral Realty. Bond & Trust Company,
Colonial Safe Deposit Company, New
! Jersey & New York Realty & Improve
; ment Company, and trustee of the
! Colonial Trust Company. His resl
j denco is at Greenwich, Conn. Several
years ago he presented the town a
public school house costing $250,000.
Hlb estate is said to amount to
many millions of dollars and he was
considered one of the wealthiest men
in New York.
On account of the great work he
has done in expanding the sugar in
! dustry in Colorado the news, of bis
death was received with much regret
in Denver.
Beet Contracts for Next Year.
Denver. —A Greeley dispatch says
that contracts for growing beets for
: the season of 1908 for the Great Wes
i tern Sugar Company are now being
( signed. It is the intention of the com
pany to fix the acreage in the Greeley,
Eaton and Windsor district at 20,000
acres. The new contracts are at. prac
tically the same prices as the old. $5 a
ton fiat rate, $5.50 a ton for the siloed
crop and $4.75 a ton fiat when the
grower refuses to silo one-fourth of
his crop.
There will be one important change
in the new contract. The grower will
I be paid twice a month for beets de
livered, instead of only once, as Is now
i the case. Manager Granger says this
has been the best year in the history
of the industry here. The tonnage is
better, the sugar contents of the beets
more satisfactory, the weather propi
tious and the factories able to reach
their full capacity, nearly 700 tons a
| day each. Manager Granger estimated
i the value of the beet crop in the
j Greeley district this year at $1,500,000
; representing 300,000 tons of beets and
I 30,000 tons of sugar.
Big Fire at Durango.
Durango.—About 2 o’clock Wednes
! day morning Durango was visited by
! the most disastrous fire it has known
since the one that practically destroyed
J the city in 1889. Although only one
| building was destroyed, the loss of its
’ owners and occupants Is more than
. $136,000, with Insurance aggregating
,; $67,000.
The fire started in the basement at
1 the rear of J. Stein’s store in the build
'l ing recently acquired from tho Wil
liams estate by Henderson & Loitus.
( The stock of Stein’s clothing store, val
| ued at $60,000, was entirely destroyed,
jlt was insured for $30,000. The second
floor was occupied exclusively by of
fices.
The law firm of Wilson & McCloskcy
1 lost Its entire library as well as all
; papers in its possession. The library
. was one of the finest in this portion of
' the state. It was valued at more than
; $6,000 and was insured for $3,000.
i Drs. Lackey, Hurd, De Shazer,
Hutchinson and Morris lost their en
; tire outfit of surgical instruments,
I valued, with furnishings, at SIO,OOO.
‘ They had $2,000 insurance. The law li
i brary of Harry Sullivan and the real
i estate offices of J. H. Arnold were also
destroyed.

WATERWAYS
CONVENTION
IMMENSE GATHERING FOR THE
PROMOTION OF WATER
TRANSPORTATION.
RAILWAYS INADEQUATE
SECRETARY ROOT DEFINES POL*
ICY OF UNITED STATES
GOVERNMENT.
Washington, Prominent officials of
the national government, governors of
states, representatives of foreign pow
ers, members of the senate and house
of representatives and leaders In all
walks of civil life in America partici
pated Wednesday in the opening of the
convention of the rivers and harbors
congress.
Nearly 2,000 delegates representing
every state in the union ware present.
Before the congress formally con
vened, President Ransdell was present
ed with a silver mounted gavel by the
Upper Mississippi Improvement As
sociation.
Mr. Ransdell in opening the congress
referred to the work of the national ad
ministration in promoting trade rela
tions between Americans and foreign
countries, particularly those countries
lying to the south of the United States,
and referred in complimentary terms
to the achievements of Secretary Root
in promotinf those relations. He then
presented the secretary of state.
Secretary Root was received with
great applause, the delegation rising to
greet him.
“It is a pleasure,” said Secretary
Root, "to extend to you the interest
and hearty sympathy of the national
administration in your great work. It
has been a subject of much misunder
standing and deprecation and even of
derision. Our people are so busy that
the inhabitants of one section of the
country understand little of which 1%
going on in other sections.”
The irrigation scheme, Mr. Root said,
had been sought under color of river
and harbor improvements. He felici
tated the convention on the fact that
the river and harbor bills of this day
were removed from temptations of the
kind referred to.
He said that policy followed by the
United States must be considered truly
as a policy and not as a project. He
referred to the construction of the Pan
ama canal and to the improvement of
tlie- Eric canal as instances showing
that the American people stand square
ly behind the improvement of water
ways and he expressed tho hope that
they would assert that policy in the fu
ture.
"In your last convention,” said Sec
retary Root, "there was some rc-fer
renco that we should not cross a bridge
until wo reached it. We now have
reached the bridge. There is no greater
achievement than the transportation
of articles valueless at one point to an
other point where they are valuable.
The railroads of the country no longer
;are able, physically, to carry the
traffic of America and the one avenue
open to such traffic is waterway trans
portation. We must move forward or
we will go backward. I see American
production handicapped by two things:
First, the great cost of getting the
gooda to the seaboard, and second, the
absence of an American merchant
marine.”
President Ransdall presented a re
port of the work of the congress during
the past few months. Then lie intro
duced M. Jusserand, the ambassador of
France to the United States, who
spoke at length, closing by saying:
“It is an absolute principle—no for
ests, no waterways. Without forests
regulating the distribution of waters,
rainfalls are at once hurried to the sea,
hurried, sometimes, alas, across coun
try. After having devastated the neigh
boring fields, the rivers find them
selves again with little water and much
sand, and with such rivers how will
you food your canals in all seasons?
“Since our forests suffered damages
which we are now bent upon repairing
at considerable pains and cost, a river
like the Loire has been entirely trans
formed; it used to be the best of water
ways, and it is now tlie river whose in
undations are most destructive. The
question is as clear as can be: Do you
want to have navigable rivers, or do
you prefer to have torrents that will
destroy your crops and never bear a
boat? If you prefer the first, then
mind your forests. We can tell you, for
we know.”
Senator Newland, Hon. Marth A.
Knapp and other prominent men made
forceful addresses.
A leter of regret was read from An
drew Carnegie. Its salient point was
this:
"Instead of spending money on war
ships to fight imaginary foes, we
should spend it on our waterways.”
Immense Value of Crop 6.
Chicago,—Answers to a circular let
ter sent out by C. R. Erwin of Chicago
to editors of argicultural papers in var
ious sections of the country, show that
the* nation's land products are of such
volume and value as to insure a speedy
end of the financial stringency pro
vided they can be turned into cash. Mr.
Erwin sought first hand information
and was surprised at the uniformly
favorable report.
Kansas has $200,000,000 worth of
grain and the bank deposits of the
sluto aggregate $165,000,000.
Reports from the 125,000 square
miles of territory which have Spokane
as a center, give the value of products
there as $77,000,000, an average of over
SI,OOO for each family in the dis'rict.
These f'gures indlude wheat, dairy pro
ducts, live stock, poultry, mines and
lumber.
Wool high, mutton soaring, cattle
bringing fair and crops high prices Is

MASSACHUSETTS MANlAC.
Shoots Three Men in Anteroom to Gov
ernor’s Office.
! Boston. —An insane man walked into
i the anteroom of the executive chamber
1 of the state house Thursday, and, find
■ ing Governor Guild’s door closed,
turned on three prominent labor lead-
I ers and fired three shots at them, prob
ably fatally wounding Edward Cohen
of Lynn, president of the branch of
J the American Federation of Labor, se
, riously wounding Dennis D. Driscoll of
i Boston, secretary of tho same body,
: and injuring with the muzzle of his le
i volver Arthur M. Huddell of Boston,
j former president of the Central Labor
union of this city.
The insane man, who is John A.
Steele of Everett, and who was re
leased on parole last month from the
Danvers insane asylum, was overpow
j ered by Private Secretary Charles fc>.
Groves and Gen. J. H. Whitney, chief of
j the state police.
Governor Guild was in his office only
I a few feet away. He rushed out, as
sisted in subduing Steele, then knelt
by Cohen’s side, and subsequently til
! rected the removal of the wounded man
to tho hospital.
i Cohen was shot twice through the
head and was in a critical condition at
the Massachusetts General hospital
j Thursday night. The third bullet
struck Driscoll a glancing blow on the
side of the forehead and, making a
long wound over the head, rendered
him unconscious. He recovered con
sciousness half an hour later. Hud
dell’s wound, which was at first, sup
posed to he an alarming one, was
quickly dressed and will probably cause
him little inconvenience.
The three labor leaders came to the
slate house to meet Governor Guild by
appointment in regard to a pardon for
A. M. Kennedy of Salem, who is serv
ing a sentence in the Essex house of
1 correction.
| Mount Morrison Electric Road.
I Denver, — Plans for an electric inter*
urban railroad from Denver to the sum
mit of Mount Morrison at Morrison in
Jefferson county west of Denver, were
outlined by John Brisben Walker at
the regular weekly luncheon of the
; Real Estate exchange.
Mr. Walker believes that the view
from the summit of Mount Morrison
is as magnificent as from Pike’s Peak
and he laid stress in his address to
the exchange that instead of being
open for only three months in the year,
as is the Pike’s Peak road, that the
summit of Mount Morrison will be
open the year round for the benefit oi
! such winter travel as now passes
through to California.
"I have begun work on a railway tc
the summit of Mount Morrison,” said
Mr. Walker, “starting at the base in
the park of red rocks. This will be
pushed at my own expense in the hope
of having the railway opened to_ the
I peak ami the mountain lighted by 5,000
, electric lights, in full sight of Denver,
by July 4th next. The trip should con
i stitute Denver’s greatest attraction for
l tourists and instead of stopping ior a
day, visitors will spend a week in this
city and many become permanent resi
dents. It should be good for $1,000,000
a year to Denver’s hotels, theaters,
banks and mercantile houses. Tin?
building of this road to the peak is
! mv personal effort, but in order to
make it valuable to Denver, it will bo
necessary to construct an electric road
! connection with the street car system
of this city, making the trip to the peak
in thirty-five minutes.
“This connecting road must be, in
port at least, the work of those inter
ested in Denver’s prosperity and to
proceed with it immediately, a corpora
tion has been organized and $250,000 of
j first mortgage bonds will be issued.”
Kansas City Bank Failure.
Kansas City.—The National Bank of
Commerce, the second financial insti
tution in importance in Kansas City,
announced its suspension instead oi
opening Thursday morning, after a
steady run of six weeks, during which
the bank had paid off $19,000,000 of its
deposits, reduced its loans $5,500,000,
cut down its cash resources $11,750,
000, and sold $2,000,000 of high grade
bonds in an effort to meet the demands
upon it.
Later three small outlying banks in
which the Commerce was interested,
the Stock Yards Bank of Commerce,
the Union Avenue Bank of Commerce
and the State Bank of Argentine, also
, closed. The failure of these banka
had been predicted for several days
and but little excitement followed tile
announcement.
Secretary’s Report.
Washington.—ln his annual report
to Congress the secretary of the treas
ury urges that he be given more dis
ci etion in times of emergency, com
plaining that under present laws his
hands are virtually tied when financial
crises arise. He says that if he resorts
to unusual measures.at such times lie
is severely criticised, even though Ids
efforts be successful, whereas the lack
of laws adequate for emergencies is re
j sponsible. His only suggestions in this
; respect are that he bo given more dis
cretion or that legislation which will
make the currency elastic be enacted.
' The secretary tells of his action to
prevent a panic and says: “The re
. markable sound and prosperous con
dition of tho country would seem to
warrant the belief that the strain will
leave behind no extensive business de
. pression.
Fruit Growers Want Chinese.
Marysville, Cal.,—California fruit
growers in Convention here have ineni
oralized congress for speedy action in
'repealing the Chinese exclusion act.
The growers contend that long trial
i and earnest effort have proved the Im
possibility of inducing reliable white
labor to engage in the primary pro
cesses of production in the orchard,
vineyard, asparagus, sugar beet, onion,
i celery and other great industries in
which tens of millions of dollars are
| invested. The memorial was adopted
j by tho unanimous vote of the large con
| tion amid cheers.
