II Is argued that $4,000 will insure

AGE Of Consent Law Valid.

Denver, Nov. 23.-The age of con-
sent law was held valid yesterday by
Judge Carpenter in the West Side
court. The case in which the issue
was raised is that of the People
against Samuel Simpson. Frances
Toppan was the complainant. The
points raised by Simpsons counsel,
Patterson. Richardson e Hawkins,
were purely technical, the main point
that the bill was improperly passed
through the Legislature. An appeal
probably will be taken to the Supreme
Court. The case was set for trial on

Denver. Nov. ga great deal OF
attention is being given to the pres
orvation of forests by the delegates
attending the horticultural convcn-
ton now In session here.
Charges were made ut the meeting
that the forests on the eastern slope
were being rapidly destroyed. and
that the state land board was selling
the public land without consulting the
interests of the state. The saw mills,
II was said. were making great in
roads upon the forests. The horticul
tural interests were vitality affected
said the delegates. by the destruction
OF the forests. Unless steps were
taken to preserve them. and to create
larger reserves, the drouths would he
come so frequent that the irrigation
interests of the state would be ire
parably injured.
The plan to preserve the forests is
to call mass meetings of the farmers
throughout the state and to interest
them in the question. The first thing
that will be done will be to draw up
resolutions asking the state 'Legisla'
ture to interest itself in the matter.
A committee on resolutions was
adopted. consisting of A. NJ. Patton,
chairman. w. G.. NJ. Stone and Thomas
Johnson a resolution also Will be
drafted to be sent to Congress. This
will be done tonight. when two hours
will be devoted to waking cut the
details of the plan.
The third step in the plan is to Sc
cure the cooperation of the state land
board For this purpose the following
resolution was alDpted.
Resolved. That the incoming land
board of the state of Colorado be re.
uuested by this annual convention OF
hortictilturists not to grant further
concessions to mill men who purpose
the destruction of forests"

Son Of Minister to Guatemala Kills
Man.

Washington. Nov. 22.-The State
Department is informed that Godfrey
Hunter, Jr.. son of the United States
minister at Guatemala City. to-day
shot and killed n man named Fitzger-
aid, supposed to be from Grand Rap
ids. Michigan. Hunter has taken
refuge in the legation and an interest
ing question has arisen as to his ex.
emption from arrest.
The cable intimated that the killing
was provoked. Fitzgerald was shot
four times. Hunter was accompanied
by the secretary of the legation at the
time of the shooting.
DR.. Hunter has been steadily en-
broiled with members of the American
colony almost since he assumed office
in 1897, and lately. owing to his con-
nection with government railroad
and other matters not supposed to be
proper for n minister to meddle with,
the pressure became so acute that
the department was obliged to relieve
him from office. 1t may be that Fitz.
gerald was connected in some way
with the charges against the doctor.
