CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
An Important Meeting Called for This
Afternoon.

This afternoon at three O'Clock the
monthly meeting of the chamber of
commerce will take place. This will be
one of the most important meetings held
SO far, for the matter of appointing
committees to the worlds fair will come
up. Another important subject in con-
nection with the same matter will be the
creating in Chicago of an orange orchard
to be duplicate of the orchards that
exist here now. To do this it is neces-
sary to purchase 800 trees here now and
grow them in boxes until time for their
removal to Chicago. This is the only
way that the orchard can be moved sue
cessfully. The experiment of digging
up trees aud transferring them east i'm
mediately afterward has proved a fail
ure. The matter of the removal of the
army headquarters to Santa Fe, New
Mexico will also come up for discussion
as well as other things of interest to this
section of the country. 1t is to be
hoped that all of the $50 members will
be present.

To Clean Kid Gloves.

Another method of cleansing kid gloves
is to use naphtha, pouring it into deep
saucer. Put the gloves on the hands, and
dip one hand at a time in the saucer, wet
ting the glove thoroughly, then rub it
quickly with a soft dry cloth. The rub
bing must be done very quickly or che
glove will look streaked.
Should there be any spots that were not
removed with the first dipping and rub
bing wet a corner Of the cloth and rub
the soiled part till it becomes clean
In using such volatile articles as naphtha,
benzine, chloroform and ether the rubbing
should be done very rapidly that the stain
may be removed before the liquid dries.-

BEFORE JUDGE CHENEY.
The Opening of the Criminal Court
Session.

The opening of Department one by
Judge Cheney attracted, as usual, a
large crowd of people. Joe Soto, the
prize-fghter who shot Mrs. Lazzarevitch,
III passenger on train, during drunken
freak was the first person arraigned. He
was given time until today to plead to
the charge of assault with deadly
weapon. Mr.. Damron, the notorious
attorney-at-law came up next and was
arraigned.
J. F. Bedwell, to be tried for forgery,
is still absent, and the court continued
his case until next Thursday.
The sentence of George Greenwood,
found guilty of burglary was continued
alntil today. The court also continued
the case of Mcguire, who is accused of
embezzlement, on a motion for reduc-
tion of bail made by Mr.. Damron. He
sain:
''If the court please, before this case is
commenced I would like to say few
words about my case. 1t is matter of
public record and fact that when my
cases were called before Justice Austin a
few weeks ago l was not present. l was
ET hiding, not for the purpose of leaving
ftown or to throw my bondsmen in the
Iurch. but for the purpose of accom-
splishing a certain end, which failed to
see how to do in any other way. What
L desire to do now is to offer evidence to
prove to your Honor beyond doubt
sshat l was not hiding to eventually
leave town. thinkI can convince the
' court on this point, and if do, want
TO have my bail reduced from $4,000 to
reasonable sum which I can furnish.
BY certain facts made plain today it is
evident to me that l need to assist my
attorneys in making my defense, which
H,rGn not do while incarcerated in jail"

and the Julesburg branch was taken of.
The route then lay through the Chey-

river, thence to Salt Lake. This route
was fully eighty miles south of that orig

About eighty coaches were used in
this service. They were large, strong
ly-built vehicles, known in old staging
days as the Concord coach. Each one
cost about eight hundred dollars and
was especially fitted for the heavy work
required of it. Nine passengers could
be accommodated with ease on the in
side of each. They were softly cush-
ioned and were altogether the finest

stage was drawn by four fine, strong
