STUDYING PUZZLES WASTE OF
TIME.

The Educational monthly reflects
the sentiments of most thoughtful per-
SONS in the following paragraph
There seems to be, says the writer,
fascination about arithmetical puA-
zies that leads many persons to waste
their time and tire their brains in ef-
forts to solve them. The "l3 IS
ID" puzzle that is now going tho
rounds is a type Of the entire class of
puzzles, for it has the following char
acteristics I. The solution can only be
found by tentative process of trial
and experiment, and the only tincture
of mat hmatical science which it has is
its value as an example in the mathe-
NAUTICAL doctrine of probabilities. 2.
The solution, when it is obtained, does
no good, and is utterly devoid Of val
ue. It is said that some one gave this
puzzle to the great engineer De Les
seps while he was examining the
Brooklyn bridge. Great engineers,
however, are as likely to fail rs other
people, and great mathematicians like
Isaac Newton and Sir William Rowan
Hamilton have no advantage over
school boys. If the time spent in de-
ciphering such puzzles were devoted to
the study of useful problems, there
would be a surprising increase in the
sum total of rithmcticol knowledpc,

OURAY, Col, Oct. 13.-Excitement is un-
abated over the fate of jackson, captured by
the Utes, near Old Ranch. The Fourth in
fantry we're halted near Saugache, on it's way
to Fort Garland, by order of Gen. Pope and
COL Beaumont, commanding, and was
directed to return to the agency and ascertain
the facts in regard to the affair. Papers
were issued by the United
States Commissioners, at Gunnison City,
for arrest of the parties implicated. Officers
arrived here last night via Lake City and left
at daylight this morning, accompanied by the
sheriff of Ouray county and others. On arriv-
ing at the agency Agent Berry was placed un-
der arrest, but Holmes and Hoyt had fed.
Kline will be arrested tomorrow. Commits
sioner Meacham was subp9naed as witness
and will be arrested as soon as he
crosses the line of the reservation.
The prisoners will be taken to Gunnison
city for examination. A large amount of
freight is accumulating at Alaniso and South
Arkansas for Ouray and intermediate points,
which freighters refuse to load at double the
usual rates, as most of it is provisions for win
ter. There is danger of scarcity
before spring unless steps are taken to protect
the freighters.

Democratic Rally at Duluth.

Especial Telegram to the Gi0be.
DULUTH, Oct. l3.-The Hancock and English
club had very enthusiastic meeting here this
evening. and were addressed by Hon. Alber,
Soheffer and Hon. James Smith, Jr., both oi
St. Paul. The Duluth Giee club, which Mr..
Shelter pronounces are of the best he has ever
heard in Minnesota, was in attendance and
enlivened the proceedings by some stirring
political songs. The hall was crowded to it's
utmost capacity by an attentive and enthusiast.
10 audience.
Hon. Albert Scheffer made some telling hits
at the Republican candidate for President
and at the present bugbear of that party. the
business scare. He said the business interests
of the country would be safe, no matter which
party was in power, but that should the Dem
ocratio party get into power, there would be
one class of business men who would be utter
ly ruined. Attorney Generals of the United
States will not deal in landaulets; congressman
will not trifle with questionable stocks; men
of Garfield stamp will stick to the pulpit and
will give men like Oakes Ames a wide berth;
the Secretary of the Navy will not lug rotten
hulls, but will purchase vessels of sound tim
ber. Mr.. Scheffer was frequently applauded.
Hon. Jas. Smith said that Washburn was not
the representative of the Third district, but Of
a Minneapolis clique. He never did anything
in Congress but pass bills to protect the timber
thieves, and now he sought reelection for the
purpose of putting money into the hands of
these same thieves. The reservoir scheme was
to benefit these men and injure the rest of the
State. Washburn wanted to go to Congress to
procure this sort of legislation. Mr.. Smiths
remarks. emphasized by his earnestness and
thorough acquaintance with his subject, had q
marked effect upon the audience.
There is no doubt that st. Louis and Carlton
counties will give Sibiey rousing majority, as
the leader and representative Of the timber
thieves has few friends among the thinking Re-
publicans of northern Minnesota.

Nice Railroad Quarrel rs IL Stands.
sT. LOUIS. Oct. l3.-The cut in passenger
rates by the Wabash road has assumed un-
precedented proportions here. Limited tickets
to Chicago have been selling all day by the
Wabash, Chicago & Alton and Vandalia at
1915, and unlimited tickets at $470. Of the
latter the Wabash alone sold Sl50, 900 worth,
spectators. brokers, bankers and scalpers be-
ing the purchasers. One banking house is
said to have bought $4,000 worth
of the whole amount sold by the Wabash, two
thirds are for Chicago and one-third for Kan
sas City. The rate to the l after point is the
same as to Chicago. The Vsndalia line is said
to have sold limited tickets to Chicago for 81.
The Wabash folks say they will sell at through
rates as long as people wish to buy. It is a
radical disagreement regarding pool apportion-
ments that is at the bottom of this fight.
