The January Term.

Considerable interest has been excited
in Anaconda as to when Judge Nap ton,
the newly appointed district judge of the
Third judicial district, will open the
January term of court. It was learned
yesterday that Mr.. Napton has not yet
received his commission from the gov

course, he can take no action. There is
a murder trial set for Jan. II, and as it
requires some time to subpoena trial

Thermometer Went Down to Three Be

The lowest point touched by the local
thermometers during the past "a hours,
so far as reported. was three degrees
below zero, but people who were COM
PEELED to set their face against the cut
ting wind We're ready to swear that it
was 90 below. In some exposed places
the thermometers doubtless indicated
as much as 10 below. About town the
thermometers showed zero and one be-
low, but as these instruments are in
most cases hung against buildings
heated for the entire "a hours, they can
hardly be called fair indicators of the
temperature.
Many people during the cold snap
have expressed regrets that there is
not a reliable thermometer placed in an
exposed place somewhere in the center
of the city.

Died .. nis Post.

Mcregildo Valdes, a Mexican
about IS years Of age, and well
known in La Junta, was found
dead at the mouth OF Jack canon
last Wednesday afternoon, his
death resulting from exposure to
the storm OF last week. Valdez
was in the employ Of Robert Pien-
derleith, and with two other Mexi-
cans. had charge OF $500 sheep.
During the storm OF Monday night
November 10th, his two compan-
ions deserted him but he staid
with the flock and succeeded in
getting them into the canon where
he thought they would be safe.
Valdez became exhausted and
sat down at the foot OF high
bluff, where he went to sleep, never
to wake again. The water ran
down the side OF the bluff, soaked
through his clothing and so thor
oughly covered him with mud
that the searching party, which
started out Tuesday, did not find
him until late "Wednesday. The
body was taken to Rocky Ford,
and the undertaken who prepared
the body for burial says the dead
mans clothing, which he removed,
weighed nearly 200 pounds, and
the man himself about 100.
The deceased was brought to
La Junta on No. s Sunday morn
ing and taken 10 Higbee for burial.

that there is an opportunity to Sc

abouts. The "sugar beet pay day"
is more frequent than the railroad
pay day and puts in circulation a
much larger sum OF money. A
factory OF one thousand tons capac-
ity. such as will be erected in the
Arkansas Valley next year, ex-
pends on an average about $40, 900
per day for the raw material which
the farmers deliver, and the labor
necessary to keep the factory in
operation. The factory starts up
about September Ist and is in op-
Grafton night and day for period
Of about 100 days The $40, 900
per day paid out is mostly expend-
ed in the neighborhood where the
factory is located. With little
energy, push and perseverance a
sugar beet pay day is among the
possibilities in store for the busi-
ness men of La Junta.

The quiet girl never wears high
colors in the streets; You do not see
her Haunting IN brilliant checks when
they happen to be in style. When
high hats are in she does not pile hers
so high that it sweeps the cobwebs
from the sky. She does not wear the
longest train to her tea gown, nor the
greatest number Of bangles when ban
giles reign.
But because she does not chatter
and giggle and make herself conspicu-
ous at matinees, does not announce
her convictions on all occasions and
on all subjects, and profess her ad-
miration at every hands turn, it must
not e supposed that she has no ideas
OF convictions or enthusiasm. She is
quiet because she has no power to
make herself heard, to change her
condition or because she is maturing
that power.
In the meantime it is the quietest
girl who marries earliest, who makes
the hest match, who fills the inches
which her more brilliant sisters leave
vacant; who manages the servants,
runs the sewing machine, remembers
the birthdays, listens TO the reminis-
cences of the old, and often keeps the

Novelty In Tucking.

A novelty that seems to be making
something of a. sensation is st, lie of
tucking employed largely by the Pari-
sian modistes. The tucks are no
larger than cord, and are not straight
nor yet on the bias, bat in decorative
groups following given outline.
They are not possible excepting upon
very supple cloth, such rs crepe de
chine, soft cashmeres, henriettas, etc.
A serpentine band of tucks is very
pretty waving up aud down near the
bottom of a skirt or tunic. One gown
that has lately been imported is a per-
feet marvel OF the needlewoman's
craft. Down the front OF the skirt
is panel, and on either side of this
the cloth il worked up into mass of
spiral scrolls made as described, of
tiny ,ucks. The sleeves are simply
tucked on the bias. Another skirt of
light cinder- colored cloth had a wide
hem around the bottom. Above the
hem were fourteen or fifteen rows of
tucks in the shape of large scallops.
This is mere trille, but such an i'm
portant one. After all, details of this
kind give the stamp of date as well as
of good taste to gown. Everyone
knows when a certain sort of trimming
came into vogue aud whether or not
1t is last years novelty. Scroled
and curved tucks arc rather difficult
matters to handle, even by professional
modistes; applique. on the contrary,
that Is SO striking aud 40 attractive.

Chinese DO not want opium.

The Chinese on the west coast of
New Zealand have united with Eng
lish colonists to hold meetings, form
a committee and petition parliament
to suppress the import of opium into
the country. The Chinese are fewer
in number there than they formerly
were, almost all the opium used is
consumed by them for smoking pur-
poses, aud this degrading habit is in
creasing not only among themselves,
but among the European youths of
the colony, They, therefore. beg the
government to limit and control the
import of the drug. Almost all right
thinking men and women feel SYM
pathy with these people in their en-
deavor to check the use of the vile
drug. We do not want to have upon
