Leadville, Colo, Sept. 24.-The
marked features of the day in Leadville
were those following the exercising by
General Brooks of the functions in
which he has clothed himself by order
of his commander-in-chief To preserve
peace and protect life and property is
his purpose. But he does not wait for
any overt acts to be committed. There
fore he began a systematic seach for
suspicious characters. 1t resulted in
arresting three men who are now in the
guard house. His search for arms ex-
tended to buildings, the most notable
of which was the Catholic church, by
request of the pastor.
The III Of inquiry held its first ses-
sion today and examined four wit
nesses, one of whom is held under
guard for further use.
Another information was filed today
by the district attorney, in which Pres
ident Amburn and Vice President Turn
bull, of the local miners union, and
Edward Boyce, president of the West
ern Federation, are charged with as
sault to kill. The complainant is
Joyce Curtis. who was the engineer on
the Coronado mine, and Ernest L. DAN
iels, marshal of Leadville, swears that
the o~ffenses were committed of his own
personal knowledge.
Tomorrow's proceedings in the dis
trict court are looked forward to with
deep interest and concern. Judge Ow-
ers will be asked to admit the impris-
oned men to bail. According to At
torney General Carr, should Judge Ow-
ers admit the men to bail. General
Brooks, considering them dangerous
characters, can Immediately arrest them
and commit them in charge of the pro-
vost marshal, who commences business
tomorrow. The men may then apply
for a writ of habeas corpus. Judge Ow-
ers may grant 1t. General Brooks may
refuse to obey the writ, the judge can
cite him and convict him of contempt
and render judgment against him and
the general al take a writ OF error to
the supreme court to review such judg-
ment. If General Brooks should obey
the citation for contempt, he can file
an answer, setting up all the military
orders under which he is working and
claim his right to hold the men under
his military authority. This. then, will
bring out the governors authority of
placing the community under military
rule.
More events are scheduled for tomor-
row. The man O'Neil, who is in Jail
subject to the further questioning by
the military and the court of inquiry,
is expected to be a bone of contention
between the military and the courts,
for he is expected to ask for his release
at the hands Of the courts. A clash will
be the result. Another event will be
the arrival of rs men to work on the
mines. These men come mostly from
Joplin, Mo-, 1t is said. They will be met
at the depot by the soldiers and escort
ed to their places of work.

PLEASANTLY ENTERTAINED

There was a very pleasant gathering
at the residence of Mrs. c. E. Carpenter
last evening. About 20 friends were in
attendance. all of whom were of the big
party of campers who extended hos
pitalities to n another while out in
the Centennial valley a few weeks ago.
Card-playing and dancing were among
the pleasant features of the evening,
during which the guests sat down to a
sumptuous repast. The party did not
break up until 8 o'clock this morning
at which time the residence of DR.. and
Mrs. Miller was visited and the inmates
treated to a royal serenade.

COLOR IN PlANTS.
Tho Most Important Coloring Substance
In the World Is C~hlorophyll.

Chlorophyll is perhaps the most i'm
portant coloring substance i'll the world,
for upon this substance depend the char
acteristic activity of plants, tho synthc-
sis of complex compounds from carbon
dioNidc ana water process, upon which
the existence of all living things is ulti-
matcly conditioned. Only in n very few
unimporta-tiorEns lcvoid of ~chlorophyll
can the syrthcsis of complex from SIM
pie compounds or from the elements be
accomplished. The function of chloro-
phyll may only be colnprehended when
its chief physical properties are under
stood. These may be best illustrated
by placing a gram of chopped leaves
of grass or geranium in a few cubic cen
timeters of strong alcohol for an hour.
Such a solution will be Of q bright.

containing it is held in such a manner
that the sunlight is reflected from the

the spectrum i'll such n name as to
make them coincide with those of the
red end. 1t is by examination Of Light
which has passed through a solution Of
chlorophyll, however, that tho greatest
insight into its physical properties may
be gained. If such n ray Of light is pass
ed through II prism and spread ont on n
screen, it may be see that there are
several large intervals of dark bands i'll
the spectrum. The rays Of light which
would have occupied these spaces have
been absorbed by the chlorophyll and
converted into heat and other forms OF
energy. This energy is directly availa-
bic to the protoplasm containing the
chorophyll, and by means of it the syn
thesis of complex substance may be ac-
complished. Popular Science Monthly.

M'KINLEY DELEGATIONS.

Canton. Ohio. Sept. 24.-The first
delegation to come to Canton today to
call on Major Mckinley was from West

Major Mckinley responded at length.
Shortly after Don a special train of
16 coaches brought a party from Oil
City. Pa, to greet Major Mckinley.
The party was introduced by Hon.

A BLUFF.
What An Eastern Paper Thinks of the
Denver Republicans Answer.

tFrom the Chicago Inter OCEAN,
Under date of August &c, Mr.. A. S.
Peabody of Laramie. Wyo., wrote to
the Denver Republican as follows:
Some years ago q assume) l loaned
81 900 to an American friend Of mine
residing in the City Of Mexico. Be-
coming somewhat alarmed at the re-
ported depreciation Of Mexican money,
l recently called in my loan. My friend
has sent me by express 1000 Mexican
dollars, stating in the letter of advice
that Herewith was my money in sound
dollars of full weight, Just as good
dollars as they I've were and request
Ing my receipt ir full of all demands.
have taken my 1000 Mexican dol
lars to bank after bank in Denver and
each one Of them tells me that it
o not care to buy, but would take
them for $3.50. Meanwhile begin to
recall as a dream something l have
heard of reputation. financial honor,
national credit, and other effete ideas.
when suddenly it comes to my mind
that my Republican editor declares
there is no such thing as 53-cent dol
lars. Happy thought! Now. Mr.. Edi-
tor, l write to inquire what you will
allow me in American dollars for my
Mexican dollars? I must recover all
of my ~hard-earned dollars. indeed I
must. Give me dollar for dollar and I
will beg hard to vote for Bryan.
II you do not have the spare change
just now, I beg of you to tell me how l
can avoid the loss of this $470. Surely
you can do that much for me.
"A. s. PEABODY"
To this the editor of the Republican
responds:
"If you will take your Mexican silver
to the United States mint and have it
recoined into standard silver dollars
the editor Of the republican will give
you 81 1000 in United States gold coin
for the lot"
A subscriber to the Inter Ocean at
Canon City. Colo, asks If this is prac-
ticable or II it is only a blur. The edi-
tor Of the Republican. is safe in making
such a proposition because he knows
the condition cannot be complied with.
1t Is a f1imsy and amusing evasion of
the point at issue. The government is
purchasing no silver for coinage and
has purchased non since the repeal of
the purchase clause Of the Sherman
bill In 1893. II 1t was purchasing silver
bullion or Mexican silver dollars it
would pay the market price for bullion
and would coin the metal, not on indi-
vidual account, but on government ac-
dollars would receive for them, under
the coinage act, the market price for
the bullion. II he received from the
mint United States standard dollars
he would pay a dollar for every dollar
he received. Under the law the secre-
tary Of the treasury once every year
publishes a statement giving the price
al which foreign coins will be received
for customs, this price being the price
Of the bullion in the coin. Coins when
SO received are not put in circulation.
but are recoined. II under this regula-
ton the United States should receive
Mexican dollars it would pay for them
only the market price or the stipulated
price for bullion. So in no way could
the holder of the Mexican dollars COM
ply with the condition made by the edi-
tor Of the Denver Republican. He
probably knew all this when he made
the proposition,

At last the threatened election
contest is on. A writ of prohibit
ton was asked for In the Supreme
Court at Salt Lake, Monday, by
Judge NJ. L. Ritchie against the
Board Of State Canvassers, to pre-
vent them from canvassing the
returns of the recent election.
The grounds alleged are that the
election law was not properly
passed by the Legislature and that
the ballot was not secret as pro-
vided by the Constitution. The
Board Of State Canvassers is COM
posed of State Auditor Morgan
Richards, State Treasurer James
Chapman and Attorney General
A. G. Bishop. The writ was
issued and made returnable at 10
o'clock yesterday, when arguments
were probably made. A great
deal Of fault has been found with
this alleged secret ballot, and the
thing should be disposed Of now
before more trouble results. The
Legislature in framing this law
had the will, no doubt, Hut its way
of going about it seems to have
been poor one
