AN ANIMATED PICTURE.
At Least the Other Women Said She
Wanted to lie stared At.

Wanted to Ec stared At.
This girl had the nickel between her
pretty lips before she stepped aboard the
car ut the corner of Eleventh and +
streets. Tho nickel was probably part
of her shopping change, Her hands and
arms were filled with bundles and pack
ages, and she had no doubt converted
ceptablo before leaving the last EN-
porium she visited. Even after she
found a seat she made no move to re-
move the nickel from its onviahlo lodg
mcnt. She was too busy counting her
packages and bundles, to see If she had
lost any probably.
The conductor rs tho girl got aboard
had scowlod when he observed the nickel
resting between her pearly teeth, for
conductors arc prosaic With the coin
still showing its shiny rim between her
lips--a delightful effect of silver and
coral in combination-tho girl looked
mp winsomely i'll the eyes of the con-
ductor when he approached her for her
fare. Tho conductor held out his hand
with pretty short, Fare, miss!
Tho girl very carefully set each and
every one of her bundles and packages
in the space beside her, smiling vaguely
the while. When both of her hands
were free she drew tiny, spotless lace
handkerchief from the lizard skin bag
hanging from her girdle. Then she
took the cent piece from between her
lips, wiped and polished it carefully
with the handkerchief and, with tho
prettiest grimaco in the world, dropped
it into tho now apologize paw of the
conductor. The conductor smiled, and
SO did all Of the man passengers on the
car.
The woman passengers murmured to
each other that the pretty girl had only
done tho thing "for effect. - Washing.

By this plan the city will practically
own its own works from the time 1t as
sumes control. and will never need to
issue bonds for the purchase of water
works.
1t will be possessed of the best and
finest water supply of any city in the
United States, the water coming by grav-
ity, needing but little superintendent ana
no repairs to machinery.
Gated the entire cost to the city will be
less than by any other plan proposed. and
should more be taken and used the differ
ence of cost would be greater still.
FIVE years. the whole issue of outstanding
bonds and stock will be cancelled. and
the entire property. with all of its rights,
constructions and works, will become the
absolute property of the city.
Should this proposition be accepted, We
are prepared to enter into a contract Tor
power to transfer the contract to the
Water Supply Company. to be immed1-
ately organized as stated.

An UnsavOry Muddle.

No legal action has yet been taken by
Manager Ballinger against the members
of Company H who disturbed the dance
at Masonic temple last Friday, as
Deputy District Attorney Merwin is still
out of town. Extremely bltter feelings
over the affair are growing however,
with the result that matters of an unsav-
ory nature have come to light. Owing
to feeling engendered by the affair
charges are being openly preferred
against the dance and its management
which, while not justlfyng the militia
mems action will at least point out to
municipal authorities necessity for an
investigation. Enough has already been
said regarding the dance to render an
examination imperative and citizens are
beginning to interest themselves In see.
ing that such examination is made. The
action of the militia on the other hand
according to Denver dispatches today,
will receive due attention at the hands
of the state military board,
