HOW 1T HAPPENED.
Theory Advanced by Mining Man AS Ex
planning the Accident.

Theory Advanced by Mining Man AS Ex-
planning the Accident.
The bodies of DeGarmo and Schrlber
lay in neat caskets in the undertaking
rooms of J. G. Trezise today-poor
wasted, powder burned, broken limbed,
eyeless bodies. The Glover boys had
their funeral at Sunshine. A well known
mining man gives his views as follows:
"I visited the Adit tunnel on the 18th,
the day after the deplorable accident in
which four miners lost their lives, in
company with Mr.. Talbot, deputy state
mine commissioner, and went through
the tunnel and examined it and inquired
into all the circumstances, and while the
cause of the explosion is and must re-
main conjectural, my theory OF II is as
follows: 1t was the custom to prepare
the primers outside and take the powder
into the mine in box with the box of
sand cartridges for tamping. When they
charged the holes the Glover brothers
were in the habit of putting the powder
in the holes stick at time and having
the helpers push it in gently with tamp-
! ing bar. 1t appears that they had placed
one stick in such hole and returned to
the box for more powder, and were in the
act of picking 1t up when by some unex-
planned accident the whole was explod
ed One of the tamping bars which the
helpers used is badly broken and the
pieces twisted, showing that it must have
been in position where it received the
full force of the explosion, and it may by
some unaccountable accident have fallen
across the box of powder and caused the
explosion. The powder used was fresh,
bearing date Of Oct. 5th. 1896, and should
have been safe. The accident, while a
most deplorable one, appears to be one
which nj human foresight could have
preventtd The managers of the COM
pany regret it very much and are en-
deavoYng to do erything in their
poweato alleviate the sorrow Of the be-
reavel relatives of the deceased"

SETTlED AT LAST,
Tom Boy Mine Reported Transferred to
the Rothschflds Syndicate.

the Rothschflds Syndicate.
New York Jan. I3-An important deal
was arranged today in this city whereby
the great Tom Boy mine, of San Miguel
county, Colorado, passed into the hands
of the Exploration company more widely
known as the Rothschild syndicate. 1t
was first opened six years ago by J. H.
Ernest Waters and then passed to a
company made up of Governor Adams
of Colorado, his brother Frank, and
MesSrs. William Bailey, O. P. Posey and
S. Underwood.
These gentlemen transferred their in
teres,s to the Rothschild syndicate today
for sI,5oo,ooo. The deal was negotiated
by Henry Bratnober, the American rep
resentative of the syndicate. He repre-
sented the syndicate in It's investment in
Anaconda stock and in its purchase of
Helena and Frisco silver mines in Idaho.

THE TAX CONTINGENT.
Many Reforms in the System Will Be De-
msEded by County Assessors.

Many Reforms in the System Will Be De-
msEded by County Assessors.
Denver, Jan. I4.-The State Assessors
association met today. The association
will recommend several reforms in rev.
enue laws to the legislature. 1t is desir-
ed to have personal taxes due and de-
linquent on January Ist, because personal
property has way of disappearing be-
fore the taxes are collected. Another
recomm mendation will be that every man
shall be allowed $500 worth of personal
property exempt from taxation. Still
another is that in sheriff's sale the taxes
on the property shall be included as part
of the debt, thus saving the taxes to the
county. A suggestion will also be made
giving authority to the assessor or treas
urer to seize for taxes personal property
about to be removed from the county.

PARENTS OF ALVA,
Arrival in Denver of the Only People Who
are Responsible for the Governor.

are Responsible for the Governor.
Mir. and Mrs. John Adams of Pasadena,
California, father and mother of the gov
ernor of the state of Colorado, arrived in
this city over the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad last evening at o:I5. Owing to
an indisposition on the part of Mrs.
Adams, the journey was undertaken too
late to arrive for the inaugural cere-
MONIES of Tuesday. They will remain
the guests of their son for several
months. They are accompanied by their
daughter, Miss Libby Adams.
Mr.. John Adams was born in Pulaski,
county, Kentucky, in 1920, and Mrs.
Adams in Massachusetts in 1892. When
about 20 years of age Mr.. Adams went
to Wisconsin and worked in the lead
mines. From this he branched out into
a farmer and country storekeeper. He
served a term or two as sheriff of Dane
county, and also represented his district
in the state senate. Mrs. Adams removed
with her family to Dane county when she
was about II years of age, and there
made the acquaintance of Mr.. Adams.
About five years ago the couple moved
to Pasadena, where they have pleasant
home, and where they expect to spend
their remaining days. On the 10th of
last month they celebrated their golden
wedding Rocky Mountain News.

CRUSADE AGAINST ILLICIT SALE OF I'm
TOXICANTS.

CRUSADE AGAINST ILLICIT SALE OF I'M
TOXICANTS.
The W. G. T. U. is doing good work in
its crusade against the Illicit sale of in
toxicants. The town votes to legalize
the sale of intnxicants but for years no
applications have been made for licenses
aud consequently the town has received
no revenue from this source to aid in the
care of paupers made through the sale
of liquors. The better class of people
think that the time has come when a
move should be made in this direction
and the w. G. T. U. has started the ball.
