JimtOwn's Loss.

CREEDE, Colo, June THE search for
bodies Of persons supposed to have been
lost in yesterdays fire was completed to-
day and no life is found to be lost. The
rebuilding Of Jimtown will not take
tangible shape until the insurance on the
property destroyed is adjusted. When
rebuilt the town will probably be provided
with proper streets and alleys. Ex-Gov.
Adams arrived here to-day and will re-
build his hardware and grocery house on
the old site. Banigan & Watrous will do
the same. The loss by fire is estimated
at a million dollars.

choice, but they felt at the same time that
the masses were In favor Of Harrison and
would exert their strength when the
proper time came.
Subsequent events have demonstrated
this sentiment of the sturdy Harrison

MINNEAPOLIS, June 8.-The second day
of the national Republican convention
brings with it increased excitement and
interest in the outcome. Long before
the many doors leading into the exposl-
ton building had been opened they were
besieged by large crowd, one and all
anxious to witness the proceedings OF the
day from the arrival of the first delegate
to the adjournment of what gave promise
of being an exciting session. The dele
gates also were unusually early In putting
in an appearance, and many long confer
ences and interchanges Of opinion could
be observed from the galleries in prog
ress on the floor. While the convention
was assembling the band rendered
medley OF patriotic airs. The entrance OF
the leading delegates was the signal for
repetition of the scenes of yesterday,
hearty applause greeting those whose
names are household words among the
Republicans of the country.
TIE CONTEST TO-DAY.
The selection of temporary chairman of
the national convention has been feat
which exhausted all the subtle resources
Of both factions. ]. Sloat Fassett, Of New
York, was the candidate of Blaine mem
bers, while Senator Cullom, of Illinois,
was Harrison's choice. After long fight
Fassett was selected by vote Of 20 to 20.
The result was a big demonstration on the
part of the Blaine boomers, but there
was no corresponding depression in the
spirits Of
THE HARRISON SUPPORTERS.
The latter took it as matter OF course;

They Knew all
About Watches.

We had been talking in a general
way in the smoking car, says a
writer in the Detroit Free Press,
when an oldish man with a very
innocent expression of countenance
suddenly turned and said:
"Gentlemep, I've been sort O.
lookin round Chicago for three or
four days, and l kinder imagine |
got swindled in buying a watch.
Here it is, and wish you'd look at
it and give me your opinions. l
haint travelled around much and |
don't know many of the tricks of a
big, bad city, but | hate to think |
don't know huff not to bite at
swindle. Jest look it over and tell
me what You think"
1t seemed to be a gold watch and
the works appeared to be in good
order, but the first man who took 1T
in hand Investigated it a moment or
two and said:
"Well, old man, if you paid more
than S25 for that thing, you've been
bitten"
81 hev, Ell? That's about what
had concluded"
~ should say" observed a sec
ond man after thorough investiga-
ton, "that if had my choice be-
tween $40 bill and this watch, I'd
take the bill. I've seen better at
SIS"
"What's your opinion?" asked the
old man, as he handed it to q third.
"Humph! You won't get mad?"
"Oh, mop
off you have been swindIed you
want to know it?"
~ do"
"Well, sir, l used to be an agent
for factory in Connecticut which
turned out better looking watches
than this at So apiece for the
trade"
"For the land sakes" gasped the
old man, and he settled back IN his
seat and looked so heart broker
that no one felt like saying more tC
him. An hour later, when | found
him alone and apparently in better
spirits, sat down beside him anC
asked:
GLOW much did you really pay
for that watch, any howl" He pulled
out his wallet, hunted out the bill
which was from one of the bes
jewelry houses in Chicago, anC
showed me the figures. The price
of the watch was S275, with {
guarantee on the bill for five years
"And I've been in the watcf
business myself for thirty-twt
years." he chuckled as | returned
the paper.
"But what was your object?
asked.
"Just to prove to myself ovel
again that everybody likes to be
lieve that everybody else has beer
taken in and done for; and tha
not ore man in twenty knows hal
what he thinks he knows, especi
ally about watch"
If the public would bear in mint
that the guarantee of a responsible
dealer is more to be relied upon
than the dishonest opinions of theil
friends, or interested contempOra
ries, they would not hesitate Ions
where to buy their watches. For :

The Planters Monthly.

The February issue of this valu
able periodical is out. 1t con-
tains statistics as to the amount
of sugar stocks available for
1892 which are rather hopeful
than otherwise. A letter from Mr.
r. A. Macfe, Jr., in Brazil, des-
cribes the methods of sugar manu-
facture there. They are primitive
in the extreme, but labor of a
fairly good quality is obtainable at
% cents per day. The writer ex-
presses a highly favorable opinion
of the capabilities of Brazil as a
sugar producing country. An APP
preciative editorial referring to the
services Of Prof. Koebele to the
State of California, and articles on
the profits of sugar refining in the
United States, valuable bugs, the
sugar bounties and other agricul-
tural topics complete an interest
ing number.

NEW YoRK, Jan 26-The trial Of Carlyle
W Harris, charged with administering to
his young and beautiful school wife, Helen
Nelson Potts fatal dose Of morphine, bidu
fair to go down in history as one Of the
most famous in the annals Of New York
criminal courts.

Second Section Of the Case.
Last week saw what might be termed the
first section of the case Of the people pre-.
sented. Monday began tho second section
Of the case.
The chief part Of the second section viii
be the attempt to show more clearly the
motive which Harris had for tho crime he
Is alleged to have committed, and also the
testimony of the medical experts, whose
opinions, both sides expect, will have con-
siderable influence with the jury.
The proceedings were opened with Byron
V, Thompson on the witness stand. He b
physician, and lives at 20 West Sixty first
street, this city.
He testified that he saw Helen Potts on
Dec. IA, 1889, at 116 West Sixty-third street.
He treated her as a physician on two ooca-
sions. Dr.. Tompkins examined her heart
and found it perfectly normal.
Harris Blamed the Mother.
Dr. James J. Mapes, who is attached to
the New York hospital as o surgeon, was
sworn, and testified that he knew Carlyle
Harris, having attended college with him.
He attended lectures on morphine poisoning
at that time with the defendant. At the
time of Helen Potts death he read Of it in
the newspapers.
He saw Harris within day or two of the
death He (Harris) said at the time that he
believed the girls death was wholly due tC

| knew that her daughter suffered from heart
disease and did not tell him of it when he
prescribed for Helen. This statement
caused a wild sensation.

GIVE US EQUITABLE ASSESSMENT.

give US EQUITABLE ASSESSMENT.
The question of equitable assess
ment is beginning to agitate the minds
Of many people throughout the county
since the CARBON ADVOCATE called at
tention to the matter few weeks ago
and showed that farmers in the lower
end Of Carbon county are taxed just
as high for cultivated land as coal
companies are for priceless coal lands
In the upper end of Carbon county.
Just think of a farmer in Franklin
township having his land rated at SI4
an acre when coal operators have lands
assessed at a little more than again
that much per acre when they are
legitimately worth ten, twenty, thirty
even forty or fifty times as much, but
then it would be almost as much as a
poor assessors life would be worth to
get down any way near solid bottom
the coal companies would swoop down
on him and with their usual greed and
vieiousness devour what hadn't been
frightened out of existence by their
menacing looks. We call attention to
this now because we believe it the
proper time. Our county commission
ers should fortify themselves and
strenously resist the efforts of corpor-
alton lawyers and lick spittles to have
the present assessment lowered. In
looking over the books of assessors
returned from the coal land districts
we find only one fault, and that is that
corporation property has not been
rated quite high enough. We recog.
nize the necessity of corporations but
we don't believe that they should have
any privileges not enjoyed by all the
people. They have never paid theil
full share of taxes in the county anc
we think it is about time now thai
they did. Now is the time to inaugu
rate the reform, and our able and in
telligent board of county commission
ers can do much to bring it about 10y
maintaining stiff upper lip and con
testing any and every effort made by
the coal companies to have the already
TOO Low assessment reduced still far
ther.
