CASES.
No Decision Expected from the Courts
Before Next Wsek-MeAsures for
Public safsty-PoIitics and
Fire Protection.

DENVER, March 23.-The feature in
the days contempt proceedings was the
argument of Col. John Taylor, of the
prosecution. He bitterly scored ex-
Mayor Plat Rogers, Of the defense, who
admitted he had advised his clients to
do the acts for which they were now
being tried. Mr.. Taylor wanted Mr..
Rogers arrested and punished for con-
tempt, with Mayor Van Horn and Com
missioners Barnes and Mullins. Mr..
Rogers concluded the argument and the
case was given to the court late in the
day. No decision ia expected for sew
eral days.
The supreme court will on Tuesday
give an opinion on the cases submitted
by Governor Waite, but whether or not
it will answer his question as to who
are entitled to seats in the fire and
police board ia doubtful. Judge Glinn
will not give his decision in the con-
tempt case until Monday.
The executive committee of safety
held o meeting at the chamber of COM
merce today. After considerable discus
sion an advisory subcommittee was ap-
pointed to look into the legal phases of
the trouble between the governor and
Measrs. Orr and Martin. and to report at

Mrs. Wards Early Writings

A writer in "Womankind" for
June calls attention to the we'll
known, but, seemingly, easily for
gotten fact that "Robert Elsmere'
was not Mrs. Humphrey Wards
first essay in fiction, and by no
means her first effort in literature,
She published one or two stories,
and had written a great deal for
''Macmillan's" before she set the
world talking in 1888. One of the
best things that Mrs. Ward has
done is a translation from the
French of Amiel's Journal (lSS4) ;
it is thought by some that the
writings of this Genevese thinker
gave a basis to Mrs. Wards sub
sequent works, but the grand
daughter of DR.. Arnold, of Rugby,
must necessarily be an earnest and
shrinking woman.
