Mr.. Gliddon Takes Charge of Well

hnown Mine in Colorado.
The Rocky Mountain News announces
that mining deal of considerable i'm
portance was contaminated a few days
ago when de Putron Gliddon acquired
a lease upon the Los Angeles mine in
Cripple Creek from the Los Angeles
Gold Mine company, of which Earl B.
Coe is president The lease is to run
two years and one of the provisions of
it is that the shaft must be sunk an
additional 400 feet by the leaser. Mr.
Gliddon stated that he expected to
carry on the DEVELOPMENT in company
with some Butte investors, but in case
they did not care to. join with him he
would pursue it alone. The cost of the
lease, he said was $19,500, "a, 500 of this
being used to wipe out tne company

Morgan Harjes bank of Paris, repre-
scented in Denver by D. H. Moffat, are
the largest stockholders in the com

NO CLUE FOUND,
To the Burglar Who Attempted to Enter
Cy Retallick's House.

" hetdillCk mouse.
There is no clue to the whereabouts
of the burglar who attempted to enter
Cy Retallicks house in 'WalkeryiIe a
few nights ago.
The robber was making rapid strides
towards successful haul at 2 o'clock
IN the morning. He had evidently an
uctpated thef conditions, for he went
provided with a wire, which he had
bent in such way as to be a valu-,
able tool. He had inserted it through
the keyhole in the kitchen door. The
key was in the lock- but the wire had
been run through alongside of the key,
ana in the ring or circular device at
the end the wire was securely fastened,
BY series of clever manipulation the
burglar had succeeded in turning the
key, but not before Mrs. Retallick
heard noise. She awakened her hus-
band, who grabbed his 3S and went to
the door. The key had been turned,
but the door wouldn't yield, because
above the ordinary lock was a Yale.
which evidently the burglar had not
begun to work on. Mr.. Retaliick fired
bullet through the panel of the door
at point where he supposed it would
do the most good, and awaited the
means and groans, which never came.
After moments reflection Mr.
Retallick opened the door and, alas
the black bird had flown.
Suspicion fastened itself upon a GER
tain character in the city, but subse-
quent events tended to show that the
suspicion was misdrected. The burg
lar is at large.

Two Women Brought Their Troubles
Before Judge Roberts

Before Judge Roberts.
Police Magistrate Roberts of Walk
erVille heard a very interesting case in
his court room yesterday. The crowd
was large and open mouthed. 1t was
case wherein the testimony was not
only contradictory, but salacous to the
core. The plot thickened in Chicken
Flats, and one of the two women most
interested was fined SIS. There were
no lawyers but interpreters We're there
Two women, one an Italian and the
other an Austrian, did not or thought
they did not, require the assistance of
an interpreter, and it was here the real
delightful part of the drama called
forth broad smiles from the spectacle
At one time even the sedate Judge
found 1t more convenient to put his
handkerchief down his throat instead
of in the regulation pocket.
The testimony of these two women
was given in broken English. When
ever they wanted to say spade they
spoke right out and said it, and than
followed the giggles and the crowd
The row started over a mixture of

on Mrs. DeSaul's front doorstep This
housewife, when she saw it. jumped
at the conclusion that the boy belong

broom ana swept the compound over
onto her neighbours porch; then there
followed a real hot mixup. Mrs. Iloeil-
oeri forthwith swept it back again on
Mrs. DeSaurs doorstep. The compound
was finally absorbed by the broom

left of the object to sweep back and
FORTH the women opened up on each

that the old eggs and spoiled beans
adorned the frocks and aprons of the
belligerents from collar button to skirt

Protection and CnIicoer.

In 100, by II IL II Will. Ill C. 10,
it was enacted that from and after
Sept. 20, 1901, not only "all wrought
silks of the manufacture of Per-
STA, China or East India" but "all
calicoes, painted, dyed, printed or stain
ed there, which are or shall be imported
into this kingdom, shall not be worn or
otherwise used within this kingdom,
etc. This was the first blow against the
wearing of chintzes or printed caliCOes,
but it was not absolutely prohibitive,
the avowed object of the statute being
"the more etfectual employing the poor,
by encouraging the manufactures of
this kingdom. 1t meant that the ladies,
having worn ont the Indian chintz APP
parel i'll their possession and use prior
to Sept 20, 1901, would have to be con-
tent with homemade stutfs for the next
81 years, as it befcll in the sequel.
The silk and wooden weavers had
been hostile from the outset to the use
of printed calicoCs whether of oriental
or domestic manufacture. During De-
cember, 1919, the houses of parliament
were inundated with petitions against
these stuffs, and on March %, 1921,
the royal assent was given to an act &

preserve and encourage the wooden and

SCIENTIFIC CONSCIENCE.
! Little Incident Told by II GcOIOgist
Pointing u Moral.

Happening to know two men who
were deeply interested in geology and
who did not know each other, Il Detroit
man brought the two scientists together
recently at the house Of one of them
and then left them to enjoy the Occa-
sion. A day or two later he met the
host in the case and heard this strange
story from him:
"Well, Mr.. Cooper, that was fine
man you brought out to see me the other
night--a fine man. Why, he's rs crazy
about geology as | am, if not tritie
crazier. We sat up together until after
midnight looking over my specimens
and talking about them, and I'm going
down to ste his cases. He tells me he
has almost bankrupted himself indulg-
ing his taste for rare and beautiful fos-
sils. y funny thing happened the other
night too. He's a great one-that man!
On my library table | had one remark
ably beautiful tOssil-too choice to be
hidden away in a case and yet too val
liable to be left lying around. l needn't
tell you what it was, for you don know
one from another. Your friend does
however, and he returned again and
again to admire this particular speci-
men. Of course | enjoyed his enthusl
astic appreciation of it, and when he
was about to 20 | said: Mr.. Badger,
you admired this fossil so much I'm
going to give myself the pleasure of
parting with it to you. Please add it to
your collection. So saying, | extended
my hand for the fossil, and, behold, it
wasn't there. On the table and under
the table looked, behind the lamp, and
under papers. No fossil. A mysterious
disappearance. l felt nonplused and
looked at my guest. He looked sheepish,
fumbled III the side of his sack coat
and said: We'll, I'm glad you are 60
ing to give me that fossil. l already
have it in my pocket.

myself, couldn't utter word of pro-
test.

and heartily welcome.
