N/HEN ASHCRAFT'S Condi-
ton Powders are fed to horses
and mules, marked improvement
will be seen after the first few
doses. There is no doubt about it..
The Powders, acting directly on the
digestive organs, first thoroughly
cleanses the stomach and bowels,
correcting all disorders, and then
good healthy appetite comes nat
urally and surely. It is the most
powerful tonic and appetizer on
the market to-day, and when once
used horsemen will have no other.
Ashcraft's Powders produce that
silky sheen of coat and hair so
admired by horse fanciers. The
Powders fatten but never bloat.
Always high grade and put up
in doses-never in bulk.
By the use of three or four doses
a week your horse or mule will
not be subject to collie or any dis
ease Of the stomach and bowels.

DEATH CLAlrlS A
NOTED COLORADAN

Denver, Jan. 1.-THE death OF II.
p. II. Bromwell, which occurred at his
home in Denver last Friday. removes
a man who has been prominently con-
nectcd with many of the most impor.
tant periods in the history of Colo.
RADIO. He came here In 1870. and from
that time up to within recent years,
had taken an active part in every
thing that pcrtained to the advance
ment of the state.
Perhaps the work for which Judge
Bromwell will be longest remembered
was his advocacy of woman's suffrage
He was n member Of the state consti-
tutional convention, and was on the
committee on suffrage and elections.
He endeavored to have provision
for equal suffrage Incorporated in the
constitution. but was opposed on the
ground that the people would then re-
ject the whole thing If this were done.
He remained true to his convictions,
however, and when the committee re-
ported to the convention, Mr.. Brom-
well and Agapita Will Of Conejos
brought in a minority report favoring
the extension of suffrage to women.
Mr.. Bromwell finally moved as an
amendment the now famous clause in
the constitution that the question
ohouiu ue SuDulttcu " tue ptOple.
The clause reads:
THAT. whenever the Legislature
sees fit to submit the question OF
equal rights to the people. 1t can do
SO by simple majority vote; that the
law shall then be referred to the vot-
ers, a majority of whose votes shall
ratify 1t, whereupon the right to vote
shall be bestowed upon women"
The question was first submitted to
the people in 1877, and in this cam
paign Judge Bromwell took very ac-
tive part, and remained one of the
most earnest advocates OF equal suf.
frage until it was finally granted in
1898.
Judge Bromwell ran on the same
electoral ticket with Abraham Lincoln
in 1856, Lincoln being candidate for
elector-at.large. and MIR. Bromwell can.
didate for elector from the Ninth dis
trict of Illinois. Both voted for FIRE.

How Water Freezes.

I, used to puzzle all thinking people
why ponds and rivers do not freeze
beyond certain depth. This depends
on most curious fact-that water ir
ut It's heaviest when II reaches forty
degrees Fahrenheit. that Is eight de-
Irccs above freezing point. On n
frosty night. M each top layer Of
water falls to forty degrees II sinks
to the bottom: therefore. the whole
pond has to drop To forty degrees bc-
fore any OF II can freeze. At last II
is all cooled TO this point and then Ice
begins To form. but ice IN very bad
conductor Of heat. therefore II shuts
on tho freezing air from the big body
Of comparatively warm water under.

and that Is why even the Arctic ocean
never freezes beyond n few feet In

A Chat With the Fans,

Pitchers big of stature are rapidly sup
planting those of smaller build among the
winning ones in the national game of base
ball. The little fellows are now far In the
| minority. though there are still some good
ones In the big leagues. For man of small
stature to make coed" in major-leasue
much greater ability than the larger man.
The art of pitching. is becoming rapidly
more than headwork but 1t must also
have brute strength in abundance.
To prove the truth Of this assertion. pick
the successful twirlers of either big league
and the ma jority will be found close to. II
not over. 6 feet in height. 1t is the string
Of young giants that Manager Armour has
gathered about his club. together with the
stick ability of the other men, that makes
the Cleveland bunch so much dreaded by
other clubs in the American League
On the Cleveland cub there are six pitch
ers. Five of them are over six feet and
one of them is a small man comparatively,
yet close to the mark himself The six
footers. are Bernard, Joss. Moore, Wright

they are some of the best. too. He himself
end jesse Tannehill will not pass the five
foot-eisht mark. and they. with Wee Will
lie Sudhoff Of the st. Louis Browns, arr
and Townsend are all big men. With them
it is brains and cunning instead of muscle,
and they can hold the greatest of their op-
ponents safely. But when there is combi-
nation of both brains and muscle, as In
Young, then the pitcher is almost invinci-
bic.
Figure the National League pitchers the
