Acrazy Woman a, l.arre.

Sunday morning about $3.50 tho family
OF p. Mounts was awakened by noises in
tho attic. There was tho sound Of beat
ing on Tin pan and Of sort Of crazy
singing. The family naturally did no,
sleep the remainder Of tho night, and very
early in tho morning Marshal Baldwin
was on the scene. He found in tho attic
an insane Mexican woman who lives in
town. She was covered with mud and in
bad shape generally. She had with her a
10, Of matches and tho wonder Is that the
dwelling was not burned. Access TO tho
attic Of Mr.. Mounts home Is by a tempo
rary stairway on tho outside. Il was by
this. and finding tho door open, that the
intruder got into tho building. She had
been seen at other places Saturday eve
ming amusing herself by striking matches.
Her mania does not take a dangerous
shape. except that her love for the blaze
OF matches is liable TO cause somebody
serious loss. a person OF hor mental
condition and habits Of wandering needs
TO be restrained.
Mr.. Mounts had his house insured carly

premIu m. for the Ladies.

The management OF the State Fair has
not forgotten the ladies this year by any
means. A review Of the premium list
shows quite the reverse to be true. and in
fact great many premiums have been
added to last years list in the ladies de-
partmonts. Tho Colorado women have
displayed such an interest in the fair
ever since its inception and the exhibits
made by them have been such feature
OF the fair that this year the manage
ment has endeavored to give further en-
couragement and wider field for their
handiwork. The department Of needle
and fancy work has been carefully re-
vised and enlarged. as has also the pam
try stores and cereal foods departments.
The date of the fair this year is Septem-
ber IA to ls and there will be reduced

RIPARIAN RIGHTS
VS.. IRRIGATION.
The Latter Vital Necessity Regard
less Of Ancient Laws.

The Kansas-Colorado water rights
case appears TO an ordinary layman TO be
simply question between the old law OF
riparian rights and the right TO divert
water from streams for irrigation. Under
the law Of riparian rights every person
owning land along the banks OF stream
can object TO any water being taken from
said stream above him. That is all right
where there is no necessity for irriga-
tion. In the arid sections OF the west.
however. irrigation is an absolute neees-
sity. The supreme court must recognize
that necessity. and abrogate the riparian
law. or the sections OF the country where
irrigation is a necessity will become par

and has appropriated millions TO COM

too large for individual effort The gov
