DENVER WINE ROOMS.
Case Will Come Before the United
States Supreme Court.

Washington. Aug. LA case has
been docketed in the United States Su-
premc Court that is intended to test
the right of municipal corporations to
prohibit the sale of intoxicating liq-
uors to women. The case is thai Of
Daniel Cronin versus the city of Den
yer.
CrOnin Is the owner of n saloon and
opened n wine room for women. The
record shows that he asked for an in
junction to restrain the city from en-
forcing an ordinance prohibiting the
maintenance of such place for fe-
males, asserting that the law is uncon-
stitutional because ii discriminates
against women, and also because it de
prives him of property without due pro
cess of law. He contcnded that he had
as much right to sell liquor to women
as to men, and that they have as much
right to drink as men. He also re-
ferred to the circumstances that equal
suffrage prevails in Colorado. and ar
gued that since women had been given
the right of suffrage they stand on the
same footing in all respects with men.
and hence are entitled to the pursuit
of happiness and the same rational ell
joyment as their brothers" The Dis
trict Court upheld this contention. but
the finding WAS overruled by the State
Supreme Court.

GREAT TEXAS FLOODS.
Damages Estimated at Fully One Mil
lion Dollars.

Dallas. Texas Aug. 1.-The only ray
of hope which penetrated the gloom of
the flood situation comes from the
weather reports which predicted fair
skies and the fact that the Brazos riv
er at Waco, is falling again. Railways
are tied up worse than ever before in
the history of the state.
Six lives lost was the total reported
yesterday-five in the San Marcos val
ley and one nj Wylle.
An accurate estimate of the losses is
impossible, but with the damage to
railroads. the drowning of live stock,
the washing away of bridges, resi-
dences ana business houses, in addi-

crops. 1t Is safe to say that Sl,OOO.OOO

waited land under water near Heaelc.

TERRIBLE NEW EXPLOSIVE.
Said to Be Capable of Destroying Any
Warship.

New York. Aug. IA new time fuse
for use on armor-piercing shells loaded
with recently discovered secret eX-
plosive of great power, has been in
vented by war department ordnance
experts and will. according TO dis
patch from Washington, revolutionize
foreign warship building.
Tests of the explosive and fuse have
been made, and so long rs the United
States government holds the secrer,
foreign battleships either must double
their steel walls or be as wooden
frigates against the new destroyer.
General CroZier. chief of ordnance, is
quoted as having said that n test OF
the new explosive had been conducted
with evident success at the Sandy
Hook proving grounds. that the shell
carried its contents through the thick
est a-mor and that the fuse lived long
enough to have exploded in the inter
ior of ship of war. The greatest pen
etration secured was that of a shell
fired from twelve-inch gun. 1t pierced
fourteen-inch Krupp armor before de-
tonation. The heaviest shield now in
use is said to be only twelve inches

FORT COLLINS ENTERPRISE.
Business Men Will Build Their Own
Beet SUGAR Factory.

Denver. Aug. IA Fort Collins spe-
citl to the News says: The Fort Col
lins business mems sugar factory COM
mittee has been negotiating for the
past three months with the Havemeyer
Sugar Refining Company. These peo-
pie have made bluff at erecting n fac
tory here and succeeded in preventing
Independent capital from building the
plant. The committee is composed of
leading capitalists of this city and they
propose to let nothing delay the cree
ton of the factory in time for next
years crop.
Shaw have been appointed to file incor-
Doration papers of the new company.
which will be known as the Fort Col
lins Sugar Manufacturing Company.
The board of directors will be com
posed of b. f. Hottell, ]. S. McClelland
and j. =. Brown. of Denver. 1t will
be capitalized at S350,0OO.
From the ready investment of money
by local business men in the Penoyar
factory a few months ago there is lit
tie doubt that most of the money that
goes into the new venture will be Fort
Collins money. The new company has
tive-year contracts for 1000 acres of
beets in this vicinity. The site will be
selected and construction work begun
without delay.
About five months ago an agreement
was entered into between the Penoyar
Brothers of Bay City. Michigan. and
Fort Collins business men for the cree
tion of "A SGo0,000 plant. The Penoy-
ars and all concerned We're scared by
threats of the Hayemeyer Sugar Refin-
ing Company and agreed to let them

site north of town three months ago
for $4,000. but since that time have
not made any attempt to start building
the factory. Fort Collins has decided
that nothing but ii sugar factory will
do and intends to have one If she has
