CHANGE OF VENUE REFUSED.
Judge Decides That Pug Ryan Shall Be

Denver, June ia News special
from Breckenridge last night says:
Judge Overs opened District Court
here to-day. The only criminal cases
were the two against Louis A. Scott,
alias Pug Ryan. SCOTS attorneys
made an able plea for a change OF
venue, supported by afiidavits of one
of..the attorneys for the defense and
four other citizens, alleging that owing
to prejudice against the prisoner, he
could not get fair trial in Summit
county and claiming that local newspa-
per articles were mainly responsible
for this prejudice. 81.
Tba district attorney fled counter
affidavits signed by sixty prominen.
citizens Of the county secured In two
hours time, stating that the prisoner
could have fair trial here. After
hearing able arguments on both sides,
Judge Overs overruled the motion for
change Of venue, stating that newspa-
per articles were no longer considered
of sufficient weight to influence public
opinion against the prisoner, and scor-
ing one Of the attorneys for the defense
for making aftidavits In favor of his
client. Judge Overs then took the case
under advisement and set Monday,
July 18th, as the date for trial of the
case.

nounced to the hundred or more faf

that he occupied his post unwillinglJ,

how little he relished the position in
which he was standing. he told this
story:
Tim and Clancy were walking
through the wilds Of New Jersey,
bound for New York. when Tim spied
q wildcat crouched in the branches of
4 tree near the road. Clutching his
companion by the arm. and pointing
excitedly to the beast, he said:
"'Clancy, do yez see thot foine
Maltese cat? Owe frind on vasey
street as wud give forty dollars fur ut.
Stand yez under now. an Oin go up
an shake her dune. All Yell have to
do is to houlI her.
CLANCY did as he was told, and Tim
went up and shook and shook until
the cat did absolutely tumble. Clancy
grabbed her. When there came
moments lull in the cyclone of fur
and Clancy and dust and grass, the
wondering Tim, looking on from
above, called down:
"'Shall OF come dune. Clancy. an

Come dune! Come dune! gasped
Clancy. Come dune. an help let her

National Theater Carriage Call.

After the close of tonight's performance
at the New National Theater the mega
phone will be retired and the lusty lungs Of
the porter will be given rest. On Monday
night this method of calling carriages will
be replaced by an automatic electric sign,
which has been leased from the National
Electric Supply Company Of this city. The
work of installation is now in progress and
the sign will be ready for use for Monday
nights performance.
The system is simple. AS each carriage
arrives at the theater the occupant is given
a ticket, the coupon of which Is handed the
driver. The ticket. which Is of stiff card
board, has the appearance of a section Of a
role of plano player, being perforated at
odd intervals. AT the close of the perform
ance the holder hands the ticket to the por-
ter in charge, who takes the bit of pune
tured cardboard, thrusts it into little box
below the sign attached to the post of the
awning and pulls lever.
The connections Of all the figures on the
sign drop down on the card, but only those
for which holes have been provided can
fall through and make a Circuis-thus the
number of the card is lighted on the sign
above. The driver, the lookout for his
particular number, promptly takes his place

system Is in successful use In New York

Numbered Children.

From the Chicago Record Herald
There are some forty children used In the
production of The Sleeping Beauty and the
Beast" at the Illinois, and each one has a
number. This classification is necessary in
order that the wardrobe may be properly
cared for. and also that the matrons hav-
ing charge of the dressing of the children
may keep track of them. To a stranger
visiting the region beneath the stage Of the
Illinois 1t may sound rather harsh to hear
commands given in this manner:

Rainy Season Consultations.

From the London Lancet.
In London, at any rate, and in many
other big manufacturing towns, the almost
torrential rain which has been experienced
during the last few days has provided US
with q wonderfully clean and clear air.
The freshness and transparency of the air
of London are well-known effects OF a
sharp rainstorm. The continued lombard
ment of the air by millions of pure water
drops exerts a mechanical effect, physi-
cal effect and a chemical effect, all of which
play a part in a hygienic purpose. There
is the mechanical effect of removing sus-
pended particles-drt, dust smoke, micro
organisms-and carrying them to earth;
there is the physical effect of diference
of electric potential being relieved, remoF-
ing a stress responsible perhaps for headache
and a depressed feeling. and, finally, there
is a very important chemical enect by
which the air is freshened. There Is no
doubt that the rapid passage of waterdrops
through air exerts a bracing effect upon 1t,
probably due to the formation of peroxide
of hydrogen, which gives invigoratlng
properties to the air. and, as Is well known,
will easily destroy unseen impurities. Ihese
interesting facts, though affording, per-
haps feeble consolation to those who have
gone to seaside and other places where the
air Is naturally pure, are probably Of the
greatest moment to those busy workers
compelled to remain in the industrial hives
of the towns, for by abundant rain close,
grimy. sitting atmosphere is thoroughly
washed and freed from all impurities and
made healthy, bracing and bright.

the confederate forces. The crucial mo-
ment of the play occurred in the third act
being besieged by the Union army. The
brothers are in command of the respective
forces. The rebel brother comes upon the
stage. points out his brother to his officers,
denOunCes him as traitor and gloats over
their coming revenge. y certain point in
the speech was the cue for the appearance

curtain usually descended on the victory

On the occasion referred to by Mr.. Rich

stood alone against the entire rebel army.
