He had preliminary before us

pleading guilty to the charge
against him, and was bound over

A movement ras been instig ated
by prominent citizens OF Rocky

Dodds TO consolidate the La unta
and Rocky Ford commercial col
leges in favor Of Rocky Ford,
placing the entire institution At
this place aud adding . teachers

also 4 department Of telegraphy.
Although the patronage OF the
branch establishment here has ex !.
ceeded their most sanguine expec-
tations, as many as forty pupils
having been enrolled in one month,
yet the matter was not considered
tavorably by them until PROPOSE
ton was made TO secure suitable
buildings and to raise an amount
equal to $7. 500 or above, to be
paid when the proposition has
been carried out. The matter has
been agitated but few days and
already above 1000 has been
pledged.-Rocky Ford Enterprise.

lAvsveas o,sAssaf.

A difference OF oPinio" u" W
course necessary TO the existence
of the legal profession. but when
lawyers disagree in interpreting .
law that ought to be so PLAIN and
matter OF fact that even the ordin-
ary citizen could not misconstrue
il. who shall decide. Some OF our
local legal lights declare that al
OF our city officials, including mar
shal, treasurer, city clefk' etc
hold over for another yeaf accord
inc 10 the new law governing cities
of,be second.cIass. City Attorn-
ev Hofmire. however, has deliv-
cred an opinion that all Of the city
officials, with the exception Of the
city treasurer, will have to be
elected or appointed for another
year, when the city council meets
next Monday night. The mayor
and the city treasurer were elected
for two years. Mayor Sabin is OF
the same opinion as the city at
tosney, and unless some objection
is made, the procedure recon
mended by the city's legal advisor
will be adopted.
There are a number Of applica-
tions for the various official posi-
tons, and more will probably be
handed in at the next meeting Of
the city council. Marshal Zicke-
foose has been out Of town for q
number OF weeks, investig ating the
mystery surrounding the disap-
pearance OF a brother-in-law at
Telluride, and the TRIBUNE is not
informed as to whether he will be
a candidate for re-sppointment or
not He has made an excellent
officer and we would like TO see
him re elected marshal. John (.
10y and w. H. Walker have ap-
plications in for the appointment
to the position of day marshal,
and c. E. Stewart and o. G. Hall
are the only applicants thus far for
the position OF night marshal.
u. X. McCune resigned his pos
ition at the pump house Wednes-
day night, the 6rst intimation he
had OF the change contemplated
over there being when he read the
TRIBUNE account OF the council
proceedings. He does not think
he was treated just exactly fair or
square in the star chamber method
OF relieving him from duty. John
Wiler is now in charge OF the
pump house, and will recommend
Louis Gruber for appointment to
the night job. Mr.. Gruber has
been employed in the Santa Fe
shops until this week.
The next meeting OF the city
council will probably be as inter
esting as the proverbial happy
family at a sideshow, in which the
parrott and the monkey play the
leading roles. 1t may be as calm
and peaceful as a summer day,
but as we are not the seventh son
Of a seventh daughter, we will not
venture to prognosticate.

HAMPERS BUSINESS. Coffee Drinking Ineapacltates Some People for Business at Times.

A gentleman from McBain, Michigan says. Coffee drinking has cost me much, for during my life l have been many times so thoroughly put out of condition that 1 have been compelled to abandon business for day or two at a time. The attacks of headache would commence on the right side behind the ear and become so severe as to totally incapacitate me for any exercise. even mental. 1 have ire quently had to take morphine to relieve the suffering. Sour stomach troubled me and 1 had a nervous heart that gave me a great deal of trouble.
 Four years ago I saw an advertisement for Postum Food Coffee which recited the i'll effects of coffee on the nerves. I at once decided to make the change and leave off coffee and take on Postum. The result has been all that one could expect
 I am never constipated any more, the bilious attacks never come on except from some indiscretion such as drinking dulge in now and then. have no more headaches. no more sour stomach and no bilious spells. I have not been sick to my stomach or had a nervous vomiting spell in three years. Am now 56 years old. ana have better health and do a better busi- ness and more comfortable than ever be- fore in my life. certainly attribute the change to leaving off coffee and using Postum for I have taken no medicine 10 aid In making the change.
 The experiment as stated Is absolute ly true. I am willing. If necessary, to attach my affidavit to It." Name given by Postum Co.,. Battle Creek. Mich.

BIRMINGHAM MAN IS CHARGED WITH FRAUD WHEN ANOTHER MAN BY THE SAME NAME IS GUlLTY-RAisEs A SCENE.

A special dispatch to the Age-Herald from Knoxville. Tenn. says:
 To-day ames A. Fox. who was for eleven years connected with the Birming- ham postoffioe, later coming to Knox vile to serve in the local Southern Rail- way shops, was arrested for fraud. The local papers published the story in brief. but it turned out that 1t was another James A. Fox who had committed the fraud by issuing a check which he had no deposit to cover and in the stories published no distinction was drawn be- tween the fact that the first James A. Fox was not the right man. Fox clean ed out the magistrates office and then went to one of the newspaper offices and raised a scene there. All this time the right James A. Fox, or the one for whom the real warrant was issued. was hot footing 1t out of town"
