SNOW SCARCE IN COLORADO.
White Sheets on the Mountains Hav
Entirely Disappeared.

White Sheets ON the Mountains Have
Entirely Disappeared.
From the Denver Republicans:
The memory Of the oldest inhabitant
Of Boulder county does not recall time
when the snow was as scarce as it is
now. At the headquarters of the var
ious branches Of Boulder creek hereto
fore large beds Of snow have lasted all
summer, but this year they have
dwindled into small ones, and where
there are usually small beds by the
hundred in the latter part Of August,
there is now no snow at all. Immense
basins are found at Jasper lake, Arapa-
hoe Pass, Arapahoe peak, Mount Audi
bon, Longs peak and intervening
points. These basins rise at such an
angle that the melting Of the snow is
gradual. At the foot of these basins
are lakes Of various sizes and in these
the creeks virtually take their rise.
there are in Boulder county many Of
these lakes in usual seasons, fed by
hundreds of small streams, but now
the small stremas are not running, be-
cause the snow banks have disappeared
and the consequence Is many of the
lakes have disappeared. The glacier in
the farm chair Of Arapahoe peak is
much smaller than it has been, as far
as any one knows.

cotton merchant in Atlanta told me he
had frequently seen mill children with
out fingers or thumb and sometimes
without the whole hand. :.
so frequent are these accidents that
in some mills applicants for emplay-
ment have to sign contract that in
case of injury in the mill the company
will not be held responsible, and par
ents or guardians sign for minors.
mo mill children look healthy. Any
one that does by chance, you are sure
to find out has but recently begun
work. They are characterized by ex-
IRENE pallor and an aged, worn express
sion infinitely pitiful and homogeneous
in child's face. The dull eyes raised
by the little ones Injured to toll before
they ever learned to play, shut out by
this damnable system Of child slavery
from liberty and the pursuit Of happi-
ness, often to be early robbed of life
itself are not those of child but of
an imprisoned soul, and are filled, it
always seems to me, with speeches.
reproach. There is unfortunately no
question as to the physical debasement
of the mill child
The duck suit combine, like the tex
tile corporations, has no soul, and,
therefore, it is idle to appeal to those
hard-hearted stockholders and direc-
tors to act humanely. AS we'll might
one expect tiger to be merciful to it's
victim. Profit is the god of those plu-
tocrats, and they care not where or
how they gain their profits.
The only solution that we can see
for this shameful condition of affairs
is for the workingmen of the South
to become as conscious and selfish of
their interests as the capitalists are.
and to organize politically and indus
trially, to fight the greedy bosses with
the strike and the ballot, and pull their
teeth by placing their own men in the
legislative halls and enact laws to
abolish child slavery-in word, over
throw the whole capitalist system of
exploitation and robbery.

THOUGHT PORTER
STOLE.HIS RING
Spalding Guest Accuses Employe
Of Theft of Dia-
mOnd.

s. Gottlieb, a comm ercial traveller of
Chicago, who represents g. Baltimore
firm and who has been stopping at the
Spalding, thought yesterday afternoon
that he had lost q $500 diamond ring,
and had he not found it. he would have
cast suspicion upon one Of the hotel
porters named Robert ellis. In fact
the stranger more than intimated that
he strongly suspected Gillis Of having
the ring.
Gottlieb had been at the Spalding for
a day or two, and yesterday afternoon
Gillis was helping him prepare for the
five o'clock train for Chicago. ellis
packed the trunks and Gottlieb per-
scnally attended to the packing of his
satchel. After everything was in read
mess Gottlieb missed his diamond ring.
He had been accustomed to wearing it
on the little finger Of his left hand but,
he says. before beginning packing up
had slipped it into his pocket along
with his bunch of keys and other ar
ticles.
He became very much excited and
demanded Of ellis if he had it. ellis
said that he had not seen the ring
Gottlieb then recalled that he had seen
ellis pick up something from the floor
but had not noticed what it was at the
time. Gottlieb strongly suspected Gill
lis on this account and made consid-
cradle talk about calling the police.
He reported the loss to the hotel Of
fee and made quite a stir among the
guests. In all his conversation he
dwelt much on ellis and the fact that
he had picked up something from the
floor. ellis, who bears a good reputa-
ton and looks the part, calmly insisted
that he did not have the ring and did
not know where it was The owner of
the lost ring said he would give $40 for
it's recovery. :''
. Gottlieb at last reopened his satchel
and there found the ring. He was so

men anxious to escape jury service.
An unwilling juror, when called upon

MEAT TRUST NO DREAM.

The great meat trust that is being
formed will overshadow nearly every
other capitalist cf1ombine in the coun-
try. It's capital Will be half a billion
dollars to begin with, and it will do a
business of a billion dollars a year,
and it's profits will be at least 500, 000,-
900 annually. This mighty octopus
will control all the stock yards in the
country, selling agencies and will also
control all by-products. Not only
wholesale establishments will be erect
ed where there are none, but retail
stores as well. In a word, the meat
trust that is forming will control the
industry from the ranch of the produ-
Ger to the table of the consumer. There
will be no competition; there can't be
any. "Ruinously low prices will be
stopped and stable prices will be-
come general-and the dear people will
pay. The dear" people-who are real
ly cheap-will probably grumble a lit
tie, as they did during the past three
months, but their growls will be for
gotten when they. go to the polls this
fall. They will vote, as they have done
for years, for the private ownership
of land and capital, so that the Ar
mours and Swifts, like the Morgans
and Rockefellers, will be sure to roll
in riches. The voters like to be
amused with taxation circuses and i'm
perialistic humbuggery. and have no
time to consider such q sensible ques-
ton as government ownership Of mon
opolies. They would sooner 90 without
meat and other necessities than to
deny themselves the Joy Of voting the
same old tickets that their grandfath-
ers did. Let the farce go on!

RIFLE RANGE, SEA GIRT, N. j., Sep
tember 2.-Firing in the Hilton match COM
menced this morning promptly at 1914
o'clock, under excellent conditions. The
sun was completely hidden behind the
clouds, and rain was threatening every
moment. During the night heavy rain
poured down, but shortly after 8 o'clock
this morning the sun came out for a few
minutes and then disappeared for good.
The first stage of the match Is at 200
yards. This occupied the morning hours
up to noon. The wind is blowing toward
the targets, and the light is considered ex-
celent.
The teams which were lined up at the
firing line included the 9TH Maryland, Ohio
United States army, United States marine
corps, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylva-
MIA Massachusetts and the District of Co
lumbia. Gen. Harries was on the ground
early and remained with the District team
throughout the match. Brig. Gen Charles
H. Haywood commanding the United
States marine corps, arrived today, and
was an interested spectator of the shooting.

True Womanhood's Error.
From the Chicago Post.


Womanhood, that is to say, true woman
hood continues to advance. The latest in
spring news comes from Saratoga, where
Mrs. Whitney and Mrs. Duryea have
started a racing stable, with the colors
Carried by the horses Of the first Lord
Chesterfield There is only one objection
to the enterprise; the ladies have adopted
the stable name Of MFR. Roslyn''-a good
name, but equivocal. This shows lack Of
moral courage and fiber which must be
sternly reproved. The cause of true wo-
manhood prohibits sailing under false col
ors, and Mr.. Roslyn should net be permit
ted to rob the progressive sex Of the glory
and reputation which will accrue to it
through the efforts of Mrs. Duryea and
Mrs. Whitney. In this respect Mrs. lang
try was braver and truer than her Ameri-
can sisters. We hope that women's clubs
everywhere will demonstrate with the Ia
dies for their unwamanly timidity, and that
the presidents of the federation and the
mothers congress will make a personal ap-
peal to them to stand firm for woman and
the home on the race track, as well as in
the pool room.

five shots were bull s-eyes, followed by a
four and ending with another five.
The New York team was the last to re-

The Scene a Remarkable One.

The scene on the grounds surrounding the

strung to keep back the crowd of spectators
who were anxious to get closer to the com
petitors and watch the scores being record
ed as fast as each shot was marked on the
