SPRING OF NATURAL. GAS.
Discovered by Prospectors at Foot
of Grand Mesa.

Delta. Colo, Feb. 1.-two we'll
known prospectors who have re-
turned from the base of Grand
Mesa at the head of Lereaux creek
in what is known as Hell's Hole,
have discovered spring of natural
gas. They tried to trace the flow
and after digging down few feet
had to abandon the we'll, rs they
almost met asphyxiation. The
new find is near the state bridge,
which spans the Gunnison river
about twelve miles above Delta
The gas escapes through crevices
and readily ignites when a lighted
match is applied
There are nun Der of mineral
springs in that locality and these
prospeotors believe they have dis
covered what will prove to be a
big thing for this locality.

HONOR ANNIVERSARY
Marvellous Growth in Thirty Eight
Years.
FOUNDED BY J. II. RATHBONE

Chicago, Ill, Feb l9-Mem bers
of the Knights of Pythias through
out the land are today celebrating
the thirty eighth anniversary of
the establishment of their order.
They believe they have good cause
for jubilation in the rapid growth
and fiourishing condition of the
order throughout the country
Since it was founded by Justine
IL, Rathb hbone, in Washington, D.
G., less than four decades ago. The
knights of Pythias has spread to
every state and territory of the
Union, to Alaska, Cuba, the Ha-
waiian Islands, Mexico and the
Province of Quebec. The mem
bership has passed the half million
mark and the percentage of gain
shows no sign of decrease. Ohio,
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa. Pennsylva-
MIA, New York and Missouri lead
the roll, with California, Kansas,
Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, Ne
braska, Oregon, Texas and Wis
consin following close behind. The
present supreme chancellor of the
order is Ogden H Fethers of Wis
consin, who will hold office until
his successor is chosen at the next
meeting of the supreme lodge,
which is to be held in San Fran
cisco next August.

CLAYTON DENIES CHARGE.
Ambassador to Mexico Declares He Is
Not Interested in Mexican Mines.

The State Department received yester-
day morning from Ambassador Powell
CLAYTON, representing the United States in
Mexico, a telegram in which he denies
the charge that he is an owner of Mexi-
can mining properties. This is supposed
to be in answer to newspaper stories. and
not in response to any enquiry from the
department.
Those who are moving against him in
behalf of Mealy. and others claim to have
in their possession an affidavit duly made
before the British Consul in the City OF
Mexico. stating that Mr.. Clayton is not
only a stockholder in certain properties
but that the books of the company show
that he is q director.
An official of the department in discuss
ing the matter said that there was no
regulation which forbids a member of the
Diplomatic Corps from investing in the
industries of the country to which he is
accredited. but he admits that good taste
might initiate against the contracting of
such local ties.
Ambassador Clayton has remarkable
record for efficiency and the same au-
thcrity states that in the Mealy case he
has apparently done nothing save by the
express order Of the department.

OPENING ARGUMENTS
IN UTERMEHLE CASE

in and deny the validity of an instrument
under which he had assumed to take. and
ask that his share be increased by con-
tributions from others. Mr.. Worthngton.
in replying to the statement said that II
was not until about the time of the filing
of the present proceedings that Charles
H. Utermehle had become aware of the
condition of his grandfather at the time
he made a will.
He insisted that owing to the fact that
considerable time had elapsed since
the execution of the will. many witnesses
that might throw light upon the subject
on their side of the case had departed
this life. and that even since the filing
of the proceedings. witness to the Will.
as well as Mrs. Taylor. one of the cavea-
tees. had also died.
He contended. however. that the Qucs-
tiOn of the due execution of the will was
not at issue. and that what was to be
presented before the jury, aside from es-
toppel, must be directed entirely upon
the point as to whether or not George W.
utermehlc was capable Of making will
at the time the instrument was signed,
and whether or not it was his voluntary
act unaffected by undue influence.

|EVENTSeOF INTEREST IN THE WOR
BOWLING DOUBLE HEADER.
CAROLS Take Two From Saengers and
Eagles Win From Fat Men.

Last night was a gala night in League
bowling circles, for there was double
header and all the rooters were out IN
force. At the saengerbund alleys the
Carroll Institute contingent congregated,
decorated in true st. Patrick style. and
having all the noise that goes with the
occasion, made merry while their team
beat the Saengers two games,
At the Golden Eagles alleys the mat
ter was little more serious, for upon
the result of the set depended third place,
and the bowlers and their cohorts were
not in a merry-making mood. The Gold
en- Eagles made good their promise and
won the full set and went to third. and
are not very many points behind the
Saengerbund. and with a little longer
schedule might displace the merry sing
erS.
The bowling upon both alleys was of a
high order. The lowest score was bowled
by the CAROLS in their third game-7S5.
the highest was the Eagles third-929.
and all the other totals were over 800.
Brosnan's place on the CAROLS team
was filed by Cox. who distinguished him
self by bowling the highest single game
OF the set-2i3. The team bowled in
steady fashion but all seemed to be un-
able to reach the gait which in former
sets has brought their big totals. They
bowled well enough to win. and that's
enough.
Scheuerman. of the Saengers. had the
distinction OF picking out clean score
OF ten spares in his last game, and Har-
low landed the difficult 3-6-7 spare, while
Smith had As and Burdine So.
In the games at the Golden Eagles. the
home team was in exceptionally fine form
and no team in the league had license
to beat them last night. Their low game
was $50 and their topper was 929. Brandt
was in great form. He had high single,
with PIG, and his average was 1856. Ham
ilton bowled 210 as second best single
and had 179 average. Armstrong had 2O3
single and 176 average. and Ludwig III
average. Stitt and Brandt each had clean
game. Gait made the So spare and Ham
ilton cleaned off 3-6-7.

WIDENING OF ADAMS MILLS ROAD
Proposition Forwarded to Commissioners
by Robert L. Longstreet.

Mr.. Robert L. Longstreet. of Fourteenth
Street and Massachusetts Avenue north
west, recently forwarded to the District
Commissioners a proposition for the wild
ening of Adams Mill Read. whereby GER
tain land was offered on the east side of
that thoroughfare. and On the corner of
Lanier Avenue. in order to continue the
building lines already established. Mr.
Longstreet presents a long statement in
favor of the purchase of the land offered.
and suggests that an amount sufficient TO
cover the cost of the purchase at valua-
tion OF s2.25 a foot be included in the
estimate for the widening of the road.
Mr.. W. P. Richards, engineer In the
surface division. has submitted a report
upon the proposition, in which be says
that the first intention of the office was
to widen Adams Mill Road partly on the
east side and partly on the west side.
the law requiring that the widening
should be to 100 feet. Mr.. Richards states
that it was then discovered that the road
had already been donated to width OF
ninety feet, and that -he widening could,
with economy. be better taken from the
west side.
