The latest sensation In Spain has
been created by the coolness and reck-
lessness of a strange man. Dressed In
white. standing with crossed arms on
q pedestal In the middle OF the arena,
he awaits the coming OF the iercest
bull. Not muscle moves--he stands
as still as statue. At last the gate Ia
opened and In rushcs wild bull. one
of the animals before which even
lions and tigers have been known to
retreat like ours. II makes directly
for Don Tancredo Lopez on his pedes-
tai. who merely looks the animal
steadily In the eyes. Arrived at the
pedestal, the bull stops. looks at tho
man. snifYs. and then turns around and
runs away, amid the laundering ap-
plausc of the spectators. Probably
the bull does not take the man for a
living being. Let II retreat for what
ever cause. not even the most reck-
less bull fighter dares initiate Lopez.

500 for every performance" A

ashore Acres" com,nsi

In Shore Acres,' which is to have
fine scenic production at the opera
house Saturday night, October 26,
the late actor-dramatist. James A.
Herne, has clearly demonstrated that
a play almost plotless and depending
entirely upon q portrayal Of that
which is real without dramatic eff
fects, as in the ordinary plays, can be
written with success. In q total iz-
noring of the traditional. conventional
and unreal in stagecrsft, and getti..ss
far away from artificial devices and
supplanting in its stead art, true art,
the effect has been . revelation.
Shore Acres" is a dramatic ser.
mon without word Of religion in it.
The story is that of the lowly, the
everyday life of poor farmers and
fishermen living on the coast of
Maine. 1t is psychic study for the
thinker, lesson for the thoughtless,
and the impression made upon the
spectator by this masterpiece will last
lifetime. Shore Acres" is in every
way truly great play and wholly
unlike any other pastoral work known
to the EnRlish-speaking stage.

DEMOcRATs.POPULIsTs.
Two Conventions In Session Monday
Fusion Rejected by the Demo-
Gratis =. Two Separate
Tickets.

II have lived in Fremont county
for many years, and the ticket nomi-
mated by the Republicans last Sstur-
day was the weakest l ever saw"
Thus spoke the "Tall Sycamore Of the
Arkansas Valley to the assembled
Democratic hosts at the court house
Monday. The speaker counseled har-
mony, and then with good ticket
and united front they could forever
annihilate their opponents. The con-
vention then proceeded to harmonic.
Henry l.. White, the presiding officer,
was on the alert to see that no favor
ing winds passed the party's sails.
The winds we're shifty and several
good puffs swept by as if in laughing
menace. One larger than the rest
and fraught with danger to the Demo-
cratic craft appeared in the form of
fusion with the Populists. they ask
ing only the office of county superin-
tendent of schools. With a naughty
flaunt the proposition was cast aside.
None but Democrats must be recog-
nized. With this issue settled the
convention proceeded to the nomina-
tion of straight ticket. 1t is as
follows:
Clerk-G. P. Nix. Florence,
Sheriff Clarence Jones. Florence.
Treasurer K. Bernard, Florence,
Supt. of Schools Tina Pen
ney, Canon City,
Assessor-W.B Housler, Rockvale,
County Judge-Orion Locke, Can
on City, s
Commissioner, 3rd Dist.--T. Witch
er. Cotopaxi,
Coroner T. B. Moore, Canon
City,
Surveyor C. Hall, Cahor City.
.-t PoPULIsT.
The Populists also held conven-
tiSn with between 80 and 40 dele
gates present. They came with the
feeling that the fusion of other, years
might be continued. The rejection
of their proposition for fusion tick
ct seemed not great surprise, and
without further ado proceeded to the
nomination of candidates for the Of
fees to be voted for this fall. The
result of their deliberations was the
following ticket:
Clerk-F. E Thomas, Canon City,
Treasurer-Phil Griffith, Florence,
County Judge-K. l.. Eldred, Cah-
on City,
Supt. of SCI ools e. A. Kenyon,
Florence.
Assessor F. Clark, Florence,
Commissioner Bird Dist. = Daniel
Hall. Cottonwood,
Sheriff M. Blyth. Rnckvale,
Coroner-Dr. T. H. Craven, Canon
City.
The Populists insist that their ticket
is in the field to stay. and every ef-
fort will be made to cast the solid
Populist vote for the straight ticket,
and thereby show the Democratic
leaders in Fremont county that they
were sincere in their efforts. They
even go SO far as to say, at least
some do, that they will cast more
votes than the Democrats. IS

He gashed his arms and wrists with n

No New Asylum Needed.

Topeka, Jan. State Auditor Cole,
in discussing the insane asylum mat
ter, said:
"When the administration building
at the Topeka asylum is completed,
there is little doubt that all of the
insane persons who are legally entitled
to admission to the asylum can be
accommodated. This new building at
the Topeka institution will provide
accommodations for the offices and
living quarters for the officers, vaca-
ting their present quarters for wards
The additional room thus furnished,
with the new hospital accommodation
at Osawatomie, now in course of con-
struction, and which will be occupied
by the sick patients, will furnish much
additional room. 1t is believed that
all of the insane patients in the various
counties can then be accommodated at
the asylums."

GERMANY EXPECTS china
To Pay the Five-foId Salaries A.
lowed its officers.
RUSSIA ACTING A RIDDLE.

Washington, Jan. THE state de-
partment is making strong effort to
secure an understanding among the
powers to serve as basis for the adj
justment of the question of indemnity
to be paid by the Chinese government,
1t appears from Mr.. Congers reports
that it is hopeless to expect the foreign
ministers at Pelsin to reach an agree
ment on this important subject and If
the problem is to be solved at all, it
must be removed from the Pekin in
council and dealt with by direct
diplomacy.
The principle difficulty in the way is
believed to be the enormous indemnity
demanded by some of the powers.
1t is believed that the bill of Ger
many will be by far the largest and it
is significant fact that the German
government has allowed its officers on
service in China fve-fold their regular
salaries, rate of pay hitherto I'M
known in military history. The Chi
nese, however, are expected to pay for
this.
The attitude of Russia in Manchuria
has given rise to considerable appre-
hension here As indicated in recent
news dispatches series of regulations
has been promulgated by the Russian
government for the admin stration of
affairs in Manchuria, which would
seem to the officials here to warrant
an apprehension that permanent
occupation of that territory with its
population of twenty millions, is in
contemplation.

Be it enacted by the legislature of the

That chapter 10, of the laws of 1899,
is hereby repealed.
That is all there is to it, but it is a
significant measure. Chapter 10 is the
law passed at the last session Srovid-
ing for the location and erection of a
new insane ASYLUM.

SAYS II IS I'LL NONSENSE.
Executive Railroad officers Meet
to Obey the Law.
NO GIGANTIC R. R. COMBINE.

Denver, Col. Jan. President +.
Il. Jeffrey, of the Denver n Rio Grande
road, who is chairman of the executive
officers association meeting four times
each year in New York, says there is
not particle of truth in the reported
gigantic railway combine which is to
control all the great lines. In an in
terview he said:
Nobody in his sane mind ever
thought of attempting to combine all
the railways into a great organization
to control the commerce of the country.
The meetings in New York have no
such purpose and if railway managers
can be brought to point where they
will simply obey the interstate COM
merce law, the main object of the
meetings in New York will be accom-
plished. If the lines will quit rate
cutting and simply obey the plain let
ter of the law, that is all | would ask
and it is quite enough for one organi-
cation to accomplish. l have always
been stickler for obedience to the
law. Let the railway managers carry
out the plain provisions of the inter
state commerce act; let them treat all
shippers alike and make changes in
rates only after giving public notice as
required by law If this is done there
will be no need of com binations to try
to control the traffic.
What would become of the weak
lines if the law were obeyed? he was
asked.
They would go out of existence"
was the reply. THAT is the natural
law and l see no reason why the weak
railways should be forever upheld by
those that are able to take care of
themselves. Let the weak lines bs alb
sorbed by their more vigorous COM
petitors or let them go out of existence
altogether. In either event the public
is the gamer and the business interest
is better Off "
