final instructions regarding the collec-

board having the matter in charge has
placed $4,000 of the $25.000 appropria-

The instructions are as follows:
First:

2. Whether what is described as

JUDGE LINDSEY
TELLS ABOUT BOYS

Denver. June 22-yesterday was
the last day of the convention or the
state Epworth League. which began
on Tuesday, June 18th. Despite the
all-night session on Larimer street
Saturday night. the delegates were up
and working early yesterday morning.
The morning was almost entirely CIV
en- over to work at the county jail.
where meetings were conducted oy
Happy Harry" Ottinger of Colorado
Springs, who conducted the meeting
on Larimer sheet Saturday night. AT
1890 in the morning the convention
sermon. "Our Country and Our Duties
Thereto" was delivered by Bishop
Henry w. Warren.
Judge Lindsey. who addressed both
sessions of the convention yesterday
afternoon, arraigned the methods of
treating juvenile Offenders in vogue
in the police departments of the coun-
try. He said the first thing boy is
impressed with when he falls into the
clutches of the police is fear, and that
under its influence he will lie and
probably be accused of doing things
he has never done. with the result
that when he is freed he is filled with
a feeling of resentmea: which leads
him to go back and do over again the
things for which he has been arrested.
Boys lie almost constantly in or
der to get out of scrapes,' said Judge
Lindsey, land they stick to their fab
relations, but on that account l do
not count them either liars or per-
iurers. Fear is what makes boy
lie. Self preservation is the first law
of nature. Danish fear from the heart
of boy and you have him where you
want him"
Judge Lindsey then went on to give
the history of the worst case which
had ever come under his observation,
which was that of a young man with
in two months of the age when he
would be out of the jurisdiction of the
juvenile court. This fellow was a
skilled burglar. had been in jail eight
times, but never in the juvenile court,
and had made his escape twice. once
by means of skylight and the other
time through a sewer.
The judge said he got hold of this
boy and talked to him for two hours.
and finally decided not to send him
to the reformatory. though he said
ne was visited by delegation from
police headquarters who pointed out
to him the error of his way in letting
the boy go. The judge, however, had
his way, and said that the young man
had ever since led a sober and honest

filed a brief in the Supreme Court
asking that the judgment OF the Coun-
ty Court in fining the defendants $50
each for violating the child labor law
be set aside.
The defendants We're found guilty
and fined by Judge Lindsey in the
County Court last fall for employing
child under fourteen years old to
work in the mills. The complaint was
sworn to by o. l.. Tuft. an agent of the
State Humane Society. One error as
signed Is in connection with this com

he had not seen the misdemeanor al
legged 1t is also alleged that the
statutes covering the cases specify
persons and that corporations are not
mentioned anywhere.
The brief closes by stating that while
the defendants believed that what
ever Judge Lindsey had done in the

desire to be impartial. yet there was
sometimes a danger that in looking
after the rights and interests of chill

COLORADO POWER
COMPANY FORMED

Denver. June 22.-The first step in a
project to utilize the Shoshone falls as
means of supplying almost unlimited
electric power, was taken yesterday,
when the Colorado Power and Irriga-
tion Company filed articles of incorpo-
ration in the office of the secretary of
state. The company is capitalized at
81, ,000, 900
The company expects to derive its
power from Shoshone falls. nine miles
east of Glenwood Springs on the Den
yer & Rio Grande railroad The falls
at the present time show a minimum
force of 10000 horsepower and by a
system of storage reservoirs the COM
pany expects to secure 10000 horse
power. When this time arrives, power
from the plant will be transmitted to
Denver
The company intends to begin work
soon on a plant which will furnish
two years will be required to complete
it and it will, when finished. cost 81
100000 To provide for pressing de-
mands at present the company will at
once erect an auxiliary plant to fur
nish 5000 horsepower This will be
completed within nine months, and will
cost about S750000. The cost of future
installations will not exceed 500 for
each horsepower put in operation.
The company expects to furnish
Leadville and other mining fields along
the range with power which will cost
fifty per cent. less than at present This
will enable mining men to greatly in
crease their operations.
Power furnished in the Grand valley
will, according to the prospectus, open
thousands of acres of arid lands which
may be irrigated by pumps worked by
electricity.
