the room was crowded with citizens Of
the camp interested in the testimony
offered. AT no time were there any IN

Although the feeling between miners
and mine operators ran high al one

The 1S0G97 catalogue Of the Univer-
sity OF Colorado has Just been pub
lished. and shows record for the
chief educational institution OF the
Rocky Mountain region which justifies
a thrill of pride in the heart Of every
citizen OF the Centennial state.
1t shows that the attendance has
more than doubled In the last four
years, and that the institution now
stands according to the rating by the
German Year Book OF the educational
world as one of the eleven leading
American universities, and as one of
the five leading state universities.
That such rank should have already
been attained. with the limited finan-
cfal support that the state has been
able to give it, argues condition of
excellence and enthusiasm In Its man
agement which are in the highest de-
gree satisfactory, and which the state
should use every possible effort to
maintain.
Colorado boasts. and justly, too, OF
her public school system. and possess
ing university as the head OF the sys-
TEN, which has achieved so enviable II
regulations, suggests, as an imperative
duty. its maintenance on the highest
possible plane.
A curtailins OF it's growth by a lack
of financial support would be equiva-
lent to a merchant taking down his
sign while still pretending to transact
business, for nothing so strongly and
constantly attracts capital and talent
as high class university. Depending,
as it does, upon the state for its sup
port. every effort should be put forth
to enable 1t to continue N its presen:
rapid progress until Colorado shall
possess the brightest educational star
between New England and the Pacific
coast. Many people throughout the
state do not realize that In this lnstitu.
ton GOO students are enrolled. and that
fifty Colorado towns and cities. twenty
three states and seven foreign coun,
tries are represented. The graduate
students number twenty nine; in the
school of applied science there are
twenty-nine; college of liberal arts. 1852
school of medicine. seventy-eight
school Of law. twenty-siN; preparatory
school. 2T6; making the total as above
stated.
The campus grounds cover fifty-twc
acres well laid out and kept. and the
buildings, nine In number and ranging
from one to four stories In height. are
of substantial and modern design OF
architecture. each designed to thor
oughly yet economically answer Its
specific purpose.

w. A. Woolwine Of Los Angeles, who

OF Judge D. M. Key. now retired:

charged with moonshining.
"Are you guilty or not Euilty?" asked
the Judge.

There was such vacant look in tho
mans face that Judge Key believed
him to be semi-idiotic. Turning to the
district attorney he said: 'T don't
know what to do in this case. Tho
man is evidently non compos mentis."
"I'll tell yo'. jedge." suggested the
culprit. "sposin' We jess let this thing
