GOES TO JAIL FOR THEFT.
Andrew Varcoyle, a well-known Po-
lander, who owns good farm in the
southwestern part of the town, was
tried before Justice Dayton, last Fri
day morning, for stealing lumber from
a barn of G. B. Mattoon, which stands
nearly opposite "A. B. Barton's home.
Varcoyle's team had been observed to
stop for time at the barn occasional
ly, on the return trip from carrying
milk to the village, and as lumber was
continually disappearing from the pile
inside, some Of the pieces were marked,
and later we're found and identified at
the Polander place, and thus Grand
Juror J. G.. Skilton was able to make
a clear case of theft and accordingly
the justice, after reminding Andrew
of a few former stealings which he had
managed to settle for without being
prosecuted, gave him 10 days in Jail in
addition to fine of 81 and costs, which
Varcoyle received with vehement
protestations accompanied by deluge
OF tears. He was allowed to arrange
for the care of his stock and then Sher-
if Peck gave him ride to Litchheld.

CRIPPLE CREEK
TUNNEL OPENED

Cripple Creek. Colo. Sept. s.-Thc
main feature Of io-day's strike situa-
tion was the final completion Of the
III paSo tunnel. At exactly three min
utcs after II o'clock this morning wa
ter began TO flow from the mouth OF
the Big Four. Half an hour previous
the great whistle on the FL Paso be-
gan to blow and II could be heard In
nearly every portion Of the camp. and
many other mines helped to swell out
the noise.
There were probably fifty people at
the mouth Of the tunnel. including two
armed III PHso mine guards. when the
water began to flow through the con-
duits. A large mass Of debris of every
description came out ahead of the
stream. The water was very muddy.
and Il was estimated by the engineers
that the flow amounted to 1000 gal
Ions n minute. This soon found Its
way to Cripple creek. and II soon
swelied that modest little stream to
fair-sized river. Only one bulkhcad
has been taken out. and that Is at the
III Paso shaft. which is i.1so feet from
the mouth of the tunnel. The breast
OF the tunnel, however. is now $3.50
feet. or nearly one milo from the
mouth. II all avenues Of escape for the
water had been opened. II was feared
that some damage would be done TO
the tunnel I. will be slowly regulated
and increased.
The drainage tunnel required about
seven months work. and when the
strike was declared a few weeks ago.
nearly all the men employed on 1t aui,
work. II was then nearly completed.
The mine owners determined to finish
the work with non-union men and then
employed fifteen or twenty armed
guards to protect both the Ell Paso
mine shaft house as well as the drain
age tunnel. and at headquarters to-
night they are very jubilant over COM
pletion OF the work. This tunnel will
be used exclusively as a drainage tun-
mel and II will unwater most OF the
mines situated on Beacon, Raven and
Gold hills. The money was subscribed
for the work by such corporations as
the Ell Paso Consolidated. c. X. and

sEFRIENciNo THE INSANE.
Philanthropy That Reaches the Most
Unfortunate Class Of All.

One of the most praiseworthy ben
eyolent organizations in the country
is the International Guild for the B, n.
eft of the Insane, OF which DIR. Bertha
A. Rosenfeld, 1862 West Ninety-ninth h
street, New York city. Is president.
The members OF the guild are men
and women whose object Is the ims
provement of methods IL the care OF
the insane. both poor and rich.
In an interview published In the
New York Tribune. DIR. Rosenfeld out
lines the scope OF the work:
I'VE intend to issue quarterly
magazine for distribution among the
public. so that the laity may become
better informed on the subject OF In
sanity, learning something OF Its DIFF.
ferent forms. the din rent modes OF
treatment demanded and such general
knowledge as may help to wiser pub.
lie sentiment. We propose. also. to
try to influence legislation regarding
the conduct OF hospitals for the In.
sane. In the one matter OF correspon-
dence. for Instance. there IL great
necessity for Legislative interference.
The best authorities agree that the
fewer the restrictions the better In
dealing with the mt tntally unbalanced.
Yet there is hardly a hospital In the
country where the letters OF the pa
tlents, sent and received, are not read
and. II thought desirable. destroyed.
The knowledge that such Is the case
Is constant irrithnt TO the man or
woman whose mental disorder Is large
ly matter OF nerve weakness. and
may Actually prevent restoration OF
balance. The mere fact OF being able
to express ones self fully and unre-
strainedly to friend often soothcs
the mind as nothing else can. and the
helpless patient In n hospital should
not be dcbarr.d from the privilege.
Even II II were complaint. II would
not inJure the hospital that Is properly
conducted and can bear investigation.
''All the trouble Is not with the In
sane poor. as many rich patients suf.
fer as needless and Irritating restric-
tions. and lose the chance OF rcstora-
tlon because they are not properly
treated. have positive knowledge

however" said DIR. RoSenfcld, that we
want to interest people. The insane
are 30 helpless and 20 neglected. The
city and state try to care for them.
but those great ofiicial charities must
necessarily leave much undonc. and
they need to be supplemented by pri'
yatc bcncvolcncc."

GRAND LABOR DAY
PARADE IN DENVER

Denver. Sept. s.-Thc Labor Day pa
ts.io yesterday morning was the larg-
ca, that Denver has seen In many days
and there were nearly T.ooo men In
line. The uniforms OF the men were
particularly noticeable. most Of the un-
ions making special effort to appear at
their best. There was more care taken
In this respect this year than ever be-
fore. The parade WAS little late In
starting. hut once started there were
no bitches. The men for most part
marched four abreast and II took more
than an hour for the parade to pass
a given point.
The banner for the hest appearing
union was awarded to the Painters and
Decorators. This banner Ii given by
the Daniels & Fisher Stores Company.
Tho silk banner for second prize. pre-
4onted by John r. Miller. was awarded
TO the PIastcrers' Union. The judges.

Workers. Building Laborcrs' Union.
Stone and Granite Cutters. Steam Fit
tiers. Butchers. Tailors. Horscshocrs.
Machinis,s. Roofers. Retail Clerks and
Mattress Makers.
All Of the unions made good appear
ances and altogether the parade was
the best that Denver has ever seen.
There were many features In the pa
rade. among them being the little boys
drawing the wagon with diminutise
boiler just ahead OF the boiler makers.
The painters and decorators arrayed in
white clothes made a distinctive hit
with the throngs along the sidewalks
and well deserved the award OF the
first prize for appearance and general
demanor. The electrical workers were
out in khaki. and there were scores of
other features.
