POLICE COURT Do1Has
Drunkenness Brings Two Men Before
 the Court This Morning.

lue COUTc ms Morning.
 Michael J. Devine, moulder in the employ of the Manufacturers Foundry Co, and 8 former fellow workman named Timothy J. Guilfoile, had some difficulty in saloon on South Main street Saturday night. They met some hours later at Devine's boarding place near Meadow street and Deviue pulled thirty-two caliber loaded re- volver on Guilfoile. Officer Cassin happened along just then and walked Devine on to the station house. In the city court this morning Devine was charged with intoxication, breach of the peace and carrying concealed weapons without license. In his ex- planation he laid the blame on Guil- foile, while Guilfoile stated that last week Devine's wages were factorized for board and he blamed him for 1t, he having boarded with his mother in-law some time before. For intoxi- cation Devine was fined $1O and costs and on the other charges sentence was suspended.
 James Bowe lives with his sister. Mrs Rafter, on Wall street. He could have the easiest time of any man in the city if he would only keep sober. As 1t Is he has it pretty easy, having worked only about q month during the past year. The trouble with him Is that he will not keep sober. When he is intoxicated, which is about all the time, he makes things warm for his sister. whose heart Is we'll nigh broken with him. The publicity of a trial in the city court Is repugnant to her but she could not avoid it. for last Saturday Bowe went on rampage and made so much trouble at home that the only way to cure him was his arrest. He was fined to-day $20 and costs for intoxication and breach of the peace.

MRS MABEL CON rN,
Secretary of White Cross Association
 Spoke at Jacques Yesterday.

Spoke at Jacques Yesterday.
 Another large audience was pres- ent at Jacques opera house yesterday afternoon and listened with rapt at- tention as Mrs Mabel Conklin, general and representative of the National Womens Christian Temperance union, delivered in a clear and well pitched voice q learned and instructive discourse on "Social Purity" Mrs Conklin is q lecturer of no little ability and powers and she handled her subject in manner which made q deep impression with her hearers. A part of Mrs Conklin's remarks were as follows:
 ''The young man simply does not realize the example he is capable Of setting by his words and actions. The young man is literally the trustee of posterity. It is q most needy work. All men should consider it an honor and pleasure to treat all women with respect and endeavOr to protect them from wrong and degradation, to put down all indecent language and coarse jestS, to maintain the law of purity as equally binding upon men and women, to endeayor to spread these principles among companions and younger brothers and use all possible means to fulfill the command, keep thyself pure
 Mothers should teach a girl to live for principle instead of popularity. l am pleading from woman's standpoint as we'll as mans. It is mans kingly privilege to protect womanhoou not only from other men but from him. self. Especially the minimizing, in- discreet young man. A man should always look upon every young woman as some mans daughter and place his own sister in the same position in re- gard to honor. The world would be better for this. Men are being de- stroyed every day for lack of proper knowledge. The men of America are the noblest. Here is to be found the real chivalry. but still there is some thing lacking.'
 As Mrs Conklin concluded her re marks. she was greeted with enthus- iastic applause. Mrs Conklin's re- marks were productive of good as manifested by the addition of sixty members to the White cross society after the meeting was over. Rev w. W. Winans offered prayer at the meeting at which l.. W. Sweet pre- sided. Edward W. Beach rendered several solos in a pleasing manner.

The Great Reservoir Dam at Victor
Breaks, Turning Immense Volume
OF Water Down Mountain Side.

Colorado Springs, Col, May 81
Four towns in the Cripple Creek dis
trict are threatened with a water
famine by the bursting of the dam at
the Victor reservoir at Pixies Peak
They are Victor, GOIdfield, Altman and
Anaconda. Mining operations are af-
fected. The Portland mine depended
on this reservoir for 100000 gallons of
water a day. Had the mine not closed
down last week this disaster would
have closed 1t. Other mines NAV be
forced to shut down. The big trestle
over West Beaver creek on the Colo
RADIO Springs and Cripple Creek dis
trict railroad was swept away. Traffic
over the road is entirely suspended.
The dam contained 65,OOO,OOO gallons
of water and when it collapsed a rag
ing current 20 feet deep and at places
800 feet wide burst down the noun
tain, carrying wreck and devastation
down West Beaver valley to the Ar
kansas.

BAN ON TYPBWRITBRs.
Turkish Government Prohibits En-

a Strange Reason Therefor.

COnstantinople, May 19.-The Gus
toms authorities have prohibited the
entry of typewriters into Turkey,
and 200 machines now In the custom
house have been ordered returned. to
the cOnsignor. The authorities have
taken the characteristic attitude that
there is no distinct feature about
typewriting by which authorship
could be recognized or a person using
a machine be traced. Consequently
the government holds that anyone is
able to put in type seditious writings
without fear of compromising him
self. Photographic paste and fluid
are also prohibited for similar rea-
sons The embassies are making rep
reservations upon the subject with
the view of inducing the Turkish
government to take a more reasonable
attitude

NO MERCY FOR HAZERs.
Secretary OF War Root UphOlds the Rigid
Measures Adopted to Maintain Dis
cipfIfne at West Point

Washington, May 22.-Secretary
Root has approved the action of the
board of officers at West Point which
recommends the dismissal of five ca
diets and the suspension Of six others.
This sustains the course Of Col. Mills
and the other officers in the recent
disturbances at the academy. The
present difficulty has grown out of the
attempt to suppress hazing, and the
restrictions that have been made In
this direction since Col. Mills became
superintendent. The superintendent
speaks in the highest terms of the
cadets and thinks it is only a ques-
ton of a short time before the Gus
tomary conditions viii be resumed.
The matter of discipline is in question
and that must be maintained.
