The real race of the day was not

CHEYENNE CARNIVAL PROVES
AN UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS

Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 2S.-Yester-
day was Denver Day, fully 1000 Den
verites being on hand and swelling the
attendance at Frontier park. Not an
accident of any consequence occurred
during the three days.
There has been some talk that this
would be the last Frontier celebration
It Cheyenne, but the unqualified sue
cess of the celebration just ended
makes it possible to continue the car
nival for an indefinite period.
There has been some complaints
from persons because of the charging
of an admission to the grounds, but in
most every case these criticisms were
made by local people. The admission
to the grounds has been free in the
past, but so much additional expense
was incurred this year in rebuilding
the stands, bleachers. fence, race
track, corrals. etc, that an additional
revenue had to be provided. Another
year, however, arrangements will
probably be made whereby the admis-
sion to the grounds will be free as in
the past. But even with a moderate
admission at the gate, the people, as
a rule. have been satisfied this year
and take the celebration as a whole.

Why Silver Advances.

New York, Aug. 2S.-The sharp ad-
vance in the price of bar silver in
London and New York markets dur
ing the past few weeks has carried it
to the highest mark since November,
1901. For nearly six months the mar
ket has been on the upward move.
Representatives here of the large
smelling interests say the rise is part
ly due to heavy demand from India.
Large wholesale dealers in that coun-
try are distributing good deal of the
metal to the retail trade.
In addition it is believed there was
recently a considerable short interest
in the metal. Silver is a favorite ar
ticle of speculation among London bull
lion dealers.
1t is believed by some that the Brit
ish government is buying silver, al
though this can not be confirmed.

TROOPS SENT TO

Denver, Aug. 2S.-United States
troops are now on their way into the
Uintah Indian reservation in Utah
from Fort Washakie. Wyoming. under
orders from Gen. Frank Baldwin, com
mander of the Department of the Colo
rado, to assist the Indian agent at the
White Rocks agency in suppressing
the disorderly acts of "sooners" who
have in the last few days been acting
ugly. In the lawless crowd are sew
eral "sooners" who made the first rush
into Oklahoma so famous few years
ago.
The opening of the Uintah and I'm
compahgre reservations in Utah to the
public probably will not occur until
next summer. Pending the passage of
the bill through Congress at the next
session the Indians who have been al
lotted such lands as the commission
ers arbitrated as their rights, have, in
the department vernacular, had all
their rights of domain eXtinguished -

are not in the most peaceful state
over the negotiations for opening their
reservations. Years ago, when they
were taken from southern Colorado to-
the section they now occupy, they
were assured of continued occupancy
of the land and title to II. They have
been particularly jealous of encroach-
ments on the mineral belt, and their
watchfulness has made some parts of
the reservation practically an unex-
plored country. In the negotiations for
the opening OF the reservation an
agreement was made for ar allotment
of land as they choose Before this
was fully secured their rights were ex-
tinguished. They were also promised
protection against the encroachment
of 'sooners" and prospectors. Both
the latter elements have crept into

matter. will act decisively and ac

could not explain the delay in the
transmission of the news to Constan-
tinople from Beirut.
Mr.. Loomis at once sent a COPY of
the cablegram to President Roosevelt
at Oyster Bay. He then cabled Leish-
man to demand of the Turkish gov
ernment prompt investigation of the
crime, and punishment of the guilty
and to advise the State Department
of details of the assassination as soon
as possible.
In the absence of more detailed ad-
vices, the acting secretary went no
further than to issue instructions to
the minister. He did not at once mott

quickly became officially known there

AS A YOUTH.
a Boy That Were Worthy of
Grown Man.

The early age at which Washington
developed the tender passion has been
noticed. In fact, it was despair at the
uncompromising attitude of certain
''Lowland Beauty" that he fled to the
domain of Lord Fairfax, afterwards
his patron. The noble gentleman had
left England and buried himself in
the wilderness on account of disap-
pointed passion; perhaps George, who
was then coming Is, felt there might
be bond between two such wounded
hearts," at any rate, before he had
been many months under Fairfax's
eye, just as he was completing his six
teenth year, he set out on surveying
expedition. The Englishman's ground
included thousands of acres of the
most fertile GENTRY in the world, ex-
tending in a wide strip from the sea
to the Alleghanies. 1t was no small
sign of confidence to allow youth to
lay out such a country.
This position is merely sample of
the many important places he held
At 10 he was major of the Virginia
militia; at 81 he commanded an impor.
tant expedition to Du Quesne. Small
wonder is it that his first love came SC
young.-Cincinnat Enquirer.
