The electrician was working upon a ] light socket. Every little while he would wet his finger and put it fasi Ie the socket. Then he would hastily take 1t out with the refnark:

 While he.was working on the socket he told a story. lie gave as a reason for telling this story the following:
 "A woman will get into worse piac $ and come out less hurt than any man that ever lived"
 While he let this assertion fix itself in the mind of his helrer.Nhe. delivered himself of this tory:
 I was working some time ago where we had greatmany dangerous wires. Some carried a voltage of 800, some q voltage of 300. and some a voltage of no Many of the wires were so exposed that if they got loose from their fas- tenings and fell where people walked some one would surely be killed. I warned people about these wires, and l did my best to keep them firmly in place, but they should have been buried
 One day l :'eceivei a complaint mo- tice that one of the main feed wires was out of order and needed immediate attention No ore knew where the trouble was, and l spent an hour locat ing it.

The question whether the Salt River
 is again before the THE community. this time SUGAR-BEET in a form which re- SUBSIDY. quires yes or no. Brief
 ly stated, the proposi- ticn is that the Eastern Sugar Com pany, corporation recently o-ganiz d, is desirous of engaging in the manu- facture of beet sugar in this valley. It asks that there be dona,ed to it land to the extent of fftsen hundred acres, as a subsidy. and that the ranch CTS of the valley engage to plant five thousand acres to beets the first year the factory is operated. The va.us of the land desired is computed at s30 an acre, We believe which would make the subsidy amount to some s45.- 900. In consideration. sha sugar com pany is to erect a factory having ca pacity to consume five hundred tons Of beets daily. It is said that the cost of the proposed plan4 will be between s5OO.OOO and $500, eco, although We under stand thay these figures are given out as information and not as part of the agreement However, the material point is that the plant shall be of the capacity stated, and modern in every way. The bca:d of trade af CT care fully o-rsidering the question, has given it's approval to the proposition. but has vSry wisely insisted upon a, st.pu.ation that the subscriptions shall | revert to the donors unless the plan. is operated throughout two seasons. To ! this amen lrnent the sugar company readily gave it's assent
 All the information at hand goes to show that ahe sugar company is bona fde concern. Tzlegrans from com mercial agencies to local banks were exhibited yesterday which stated that the Eastern Sugar Company has bzen properly organized. that 1t has 9 good commercial standing, and that it is rated 10 be worth a million dollars CT more. With these facts before them it is for OFT litize1s to decide. On the face of it it appears to be a proposition worthy of unqualified endorsement The board of trade has tn, confidence of The Republican, and of all the peo- pie Of the valley, ard g recommenla- tion from that body carries with it always the merit of business sense ( It 5s argued very senSibly, we. think that the subsidy is asked for net So much as financial aid 10 the under , taking, as for the primary purpose of Z enlisting the warm interest and friend ship of the city and valley Capitalis.s

MRS. DAN HANNA SAYS SHE DIDN'T
RUN AWAY FROM HER
EX-HUBBY

QUEENSTOWN, July 2O-Mrs. Daniel
Hanna, who is a passenger on the Cunard
liner Campania from New York for Liv-
erpool, when interviewed on the steamer
in the Queenstown harbor by a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press, said
her trip to Europe was entirely one Of
pleasure, and that it's duration would de-
pend on circumstances. She asserted that
she was not aware of having left New
York City under sensational crcum-
stances. Her two boys were with her and
she ridiculed the suppesition that they
could be separated from her. She said
she was Indifferent to any steps that may
be taken toward that end.
Baroness de Palandt, who accompanies
Mrs. Hanna, characterizes the report of
Mrs Hanna outwitting her husband and
the detectives in New York as exagger-
ated.
The party proceeded for Liverpool on

CRIPPLE CREEK, Col, July 19.-The
Trans Mississippi Commercial Congress
finished it's business today and adjourned
to meet in St. Paul, Mimi, at a time
to be fixed by the executive committee.
The attendance today was light There
was an address by William W. Bates,
OF Denver on 1.-The National Need Of
Shipping of Our own" in which he gave
many reasons why the people of the
United States ought to own the ship
ping necessary to carry the foreign
trade. Resolutions indorsing the action
of the postmaster general of the United
States in folbidding the right of second
class matter to certain publications, and
urging adoption of a one-cent rate on
letter postage, which had been rejected
by the resolutions committee as outside
the province Of the congress, were taken
up and adopted.

the Trans Mississippi Commercial Con-
gress, the National Irrigation Congress
and the International Mining Congress
are in many respects Identical, they
may well be merged into one organiza-
ton, so that with the same expense to
the members the sessions might be
longer, giving better opportunity for ma
ture consideration of questions coming
before them Upon his motion, the pres
ident appointed the following commit
tee to confer with similar committees
of other organizations with view to
consolidation: B. f. Montgomery, COL

Final adjournment of the business ses-
sions was then taken.

to the Christian Herald the reports of
the native commissioners appointed by
the governor of Shan 81 to assist in the
work of relief. These reports detail the
work of the relief committee through
Shan ST. Near Michi City they saw re-
fugees eating tree leaves and apparently
enjoying them. Later they saw hungry
birds in the woods fighting for dead
bodies. In hundreds of instances young
girls, who had been sold were purchased
by the relief commissioners and sent 20
the relief camps, and their families no
titled On one day, May Is, sixty-seven
girls were so secured At places some
persons engaged in the traffic were seized
and put to death in iron cages, but the
authorities seemed powerless to put a
stop to the practice.
