DENVER. Sept. l6.-rhe senate com
mittee now investigating the question Of
retaining the arid lands of the west by
means OF establishing reservoirs for irriga
ton purposes held g meeting to-day in
the chamber OF commerce. A number Of
prominent people were present who thor
oughly understand this question aud the
benefits to be derived from it. Among
those present were Senator Fuller and
Governor Cooper.
The testimony taken from those best
informed was to the effect that the entire
eastern portion of the state could be irri
gated by the reservoir system and hun
dreds OF thousands of acres of land now
worthless converted into the best %agri,ul-
tural land on the continent; that the
storage system was undoubtedly the most
practical. and if one-half the water which
ven to waste every yea was storedthere
would be more than sufficient to reclaim
every acre of land in the state.
The commission leaves for Cheyenne
tomorrow.

About n month ago a young man
named Joe Harpster IA struck on the
back of the head with a pair of brass
knuckles by a footpad, knocking him
senseless, and for more than a month he
lay unconscious. A few days ago he
suddenly recovered his senses, but when
he did he was able to converse intelli-
gently only in the German language.
He was born of American parents, who
spoke German, and that was the lam
guage he first learned. He gave that
up, however, and learned English, using
it at all times, entirely forgetting his
German. Now he a remember moth
