Professor Jameson, of the Univers-
ity of Chicago, truly says: "We are liv-
ing in an age of prose. The world
cares less today for eloquence than it
does for the facts" Eloquence or
oratory will soon be ranked with the
lost arts. What is usually known as
"eloquence' nowadays is but mere
rhetorical clap-trap.

The daily sentinel., 1901-08-06

For over a week carpenters and all
kinds OF mechanics have been busily
working, getting the stands and rocks
fixed for the contests.
The state troops camped here for
three days, not on tho grounds but on
University Hill. Every morning at iive
o'clock we heard the salute and rsveille.
But misfortune visited them; three OF
the soldiers were seriously, perhaps one
fatally injured.
On Thursday morning at 1880 was the
Grand Military Parade snd Pageant Of
Progress. This was even better than
they had expected; unusual interest was
shown; each ono did his or her best to
make it the greatest and finest and bet-
ter than any celebration OF Its kind ever
given before.
In tho afternoon in tho auditorium on
Chautauqua grounds we had patriotic
music and speeches.
Governor James D. Grnan was chair
man OF the occasion and alter q short
address introduced Hon. Frank G.
Goudy. Mr.. Goudy is an excellent
speaker and his address upon the re-
sources OF Colorado aud it's future was

Rates Reduced

The Fidelity Saving Association
are now Loaning Money at s per
cent. per annum monthly pay>
ments.
CERTAINTY OF CONTRACT.
The loan plan offered by The Fidelity Is
that of paying off loan by easy monthly
payments. The contract is definite and GER
tain. By it's terms it cannot run beyond the
time fixed, but stock participates in earning
and may mature sooner. 1t is not loan
upon the building loan plan usually pre-
sented by associations. 1t differs from
such plan, in that: 49,.
No fines are charged the borrower.
No commission charged the borrower.
The maximum number of payments re-
qulred to pay off is stipulated in the note.
The sum required to pay off and cancel a
loan, or any part of it, is stipulated in the
note for each period.
Certainty and monthly payment plan is
an advantage to the borrower. The debt
can be paid off before maturity without PEN
atty. The borrower by easy payments gets
out of debt. Straight loans for a term of
years are too often renewed.
Our rates are low and loans
made on definite plan. Our office
is I'd door north of postofice on

MILITARY SERVICE
IN T1EXICO.

FL Popular: Military service,
which is now obligatory for all
MeXicanS, has changed greatly in
the last few years, as regards mill
tnry science, and the consideration
shown the soldier not only by the
officers and chiefs, but also by the
administration
This change prevails not only in
active military service, as the cam
paign, hut also in the garrison
and more, this branch OF the ser
vice is better paid and the soldier
has more guarantees conferred by
legislation and the military courts.
AT the same time military disci-
pIine is more rigid than formerly.
The Snldler is better clothed, arm.
ed, fed. and lodged than formerly,
and in fact enjoys more respect, on
the part of society and the author
tiles; more consideration in the
matter of rewarding his services
better elements for attack, and for
personal defense and more guar
anteeS for health and comfort in
his quarters, whether in the garri-
son or ON the field.

SLAIN By TRAIN RoBBERs.
The Man Who Sheltered the sherin,s
Posse Killed.

HARLEM, Mon. July "a messenger
just in from the Gill & Winters ranch.
near Landuska. confirms the report of the
killing of James Winters at whose house
the posse searching for the train robbers
made their headquarters, on Friday morn
ing.
The messenger reported the matter in
detail and his report entirely confirms the
theory of Sheriff Griffith that the Great
Northern train robbers are still in that
section. They kept up a constant firing
against the ranch house until about noon,
when they rode away. 1t was first re-
ported that the shot was fired from am
bush 1t is now said that the three ban
dts emerged from a clump of underbrush
200 yards from the house as Winters
came out of his cabin. and while one held
the horses the other two fired on Win
ters. hitting him in the abdomen and kill
ing him almost Instantly.
They returned to cover and kept shoot
ing until about noon, with the evident In
tention of keeping anyone from leaving
the place.
A. D. Gill, who is partner of Winters.
fought in the naval battle of Santiago as
an ensign. He has been warned to leave
the country. and he will probably be
killed next.
