KITCHENS in PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Milwaukee Professor Says Poor Cook.
ing Drives to Drink. ...

Professor ]. C. Monaghan of Wiscon-
sin university is of the opinion that
the drink evil problem can be solved
by the introduction of kitchens into
the public schools. He maintains that
rs per cent. of the drunkenness in the
United States is due to lack of
knowledge of food properties. II the
housekoeper does not know what foods
to use to produce the stimulants de-
manded by the body the husband and
father will seek these stimulants in
other places. The introduction of
cooking into the public schools, with
proper teaching as to foods, would. in
his opinion, solve a problem which has
vexed the temperance people of ths
land more than any other Mr.. Mon
oghan was talking to the South Side
Woman's club when he made this
broad statement and it received SO
much favor that this week a movement
was started which will eventually re-
suit in the establishment of such ad-
ditions to the schools II the persons
behind 1t have their way, and they are
influential women who are accustomed
to having their own way in matters
of this kind or directing the election
of new school board with which they.
can have influence.-Milwauke Cor
respondence Chicago Chronicle.

The court ruled that there is NO
vested right on the part of a taxpayer
that he should receive equal benefits.
and that in making such an adjustment
of the property as provided in the Rush
bill, the legislature does not take the
property of any taxpayer or citizens
without due process of law. .t,f :
Regarding the grant of the right to
frame a charter. the court says that 1t
is not to be supposed that the people of
Colorado intended to grant power to
violate any provision of the constitu
ton of the United States. and that these
broad grants of authority should be
construed as impliedly restricted by
the paramount power; that it is sim
ply intended to be a grant to act in au-
thority with the constitution of the
United States.
Questions of violation of the constitu-
tion by powers conferred by such a
charter should be brought into court
after the charter is framed which does
| in fact violate the constitution.
Judge Marshall insisted that the
amendment did not contemplate char
ter unrepublican in form, but that 1t
contemplated a charter resting on the
will of the people, and subject to that
will For these reasons the court de-
MED the motion and. in effect. sus-
tanned the constitutionality of the bill.

LINES TO GOLDEN
AND TO BOULDER

Denver, March 21-The News this
morning says:
Surveys have been completed and es-
Inmates prepared in readiness for let
ting the contracts to build lines from
Denver to Golden and from Denver to
Boulder II the present plans are car
ried out the work will begin within
a month and the lines running in four
months. The hackers of the road are
the owners of the Denver & North
western railroad. at the head of which
is David Fl. Moffat. Both lines will
start from Berkeley ana the expense
of their construction is estimated at
about $750,000 for construction and
equipment The roads will be electric
traction, the same as the trolley sys-
tenn in the city.
The News told of these new lines
three weeks ago when the work of sur
veying the routes was begun. This has
now been completed under the direc-
ton of Samuel H. Perry and all the OPP
tions for rights of way secured. The
line to Golden will start at Berkeley,
where it makes a junction with the
trolley road of the Tramway company.
From there it runs along Clear Creek
for eight miles and through the town
of Arapahoe There it crosses Clear
creek and follows along the base of
Table mountain to Golden. The Tram
way road OF this city, which is owned
by the Denver & Northwestern COM
pany, owns perpetual franchise from
Berkeley to the city limits of Golden.
The route to Boulder is directly
northwest from Berkeley and describes
a sort of half circle, passing through
the town of Louisville. 1t will be
twenty-five miles in length. Entrance
to Boulder will be from junction point
at the limit of the tramway road in
that city and arrangements have al
ready been made for the joint opera
tion of the lines in that Immediate ter
ritory. Mr.. Moffat's agents have for q
on lands which are to be used as g
right of way all the way through tc
the junction point This road will
cost to build and equip nearly $500, 900
Both lines will be built the same as
the lines running from Arvada to the
coal mines of the company at LeydeI
Junction. That means double trolley
poles and eighty-pound rails. 1t is es-
timated that the grading will be a sim
pie proposition as there will be min
imum of cuts and tunnels on both
lines. Work will be pushed rapidly as
the owners are anxious to open all the
markets possible for their coal when
the mines at Leyden are thrown open.

Fraternal Order Wins Suit.

st. Louis. March 21.-In the United
States Circuit Court OF Appeals an
opinion was handed down by Judge
Thayer in the case of the supreme
council, Royal Arcanum, VS.. Anna j.
Taylor.
Anna j. Taylor is the widow of
George F. Taylor. a member of the
Royal Arcanum, Arapahoe lodge. of
Denver, Colorado. He was insured
for $4,000 in 1891 and died in Novem-
Der, 1900. Payment of the insurance
certificate was contested on the
ground that he had not paid the
monthly assessment of October, 1900.
due on the last day of that month, and
was therefore suspended according to
the bylaws.
Judge Thayer. writing the opinion,
says the question at issue is to de-
termine whether the supreme council
was cognizant of the practice of the
collector in accepting the assessment
of Taylor after he was delinquent, and
whether it ratified such practice by
accepting the delinquent's assessment
in violation of its bylaws. :
