Water Supply Inspection.

Enos A. Mills, special deputy of
State Engineer Carpenter. returned to
Denver June 4th from an inspection OF
the water supply of the state gener-
ally. although he paid special atten-
to the headwaters of the Platte. The
trip occupied six days. and during this
time MIR. Mills walked 120 miles over
snow-coyered mountain ranges and
passes. Several times he was caught in
severe snow storms. and. as he was
travelling in light order. the nights that
he was forced to stay in the mountains
were spent by camp fire, but with
out covering.
MIR. Mills lives at Estes Park. He
started on his tour OF inspection from
Leadville, where he went by train, and
walked from that place across the Mos
quito range, to Alma, a distance OF
twenty miles. He rode up Buckskin
gulch as far as possible and found the
snow above timber line for some dis
tance.
He walked through Hoosier and Bo-
reas passes and from Jefferson post
office he walked to timber line to view
the headwaters of the Michigan. He
walked on top of the range two miles
each way. Afterwards he visited the
headwaters of Jefferson creek and
Geneva creek. From the summit
where the headwaters of Geneva creek
lie, he walked ten miles to the SOUTH
west. Passing over Mosquito pass he
encountered a severe snowstorm at an
altitude of 1900 feet. During the trip
he saw bands of elk and deer and two
bears.

Attacked by a Wildcat.

Cripple Creek. Colo. June 7.-Filius
Franks, ranchman residing near Mar
igold, In the southern part of the coun-
ty, had an exciting but unpleasant ad-
venture with a wildcat yesterday af-
ternoon. Franks was coming to town
for medicine for a sick child. He was
making a shortcut. taking the trail over
the hills. At one point the trail is SO
steep that the ranchman dismounted
and was leading his horse when he
spied young kitten on the path in
front of him. He kicked it out of the
road, when the infuriated mother. who
was crouching in some rocks nearby.
sprang at him.
Franks was unarmed and had to
fight the beast off with his fists, which
he finally succeeded in doing. He was
badly scratched about the face and
hands and his coat was torn to rib
bons.

Grand Recorder Commits Suicide.

Denver, June Rather than turn
over the records of his office, which
would show a shortage, Francis Ma
rion Roberts fired a bullet into his
brain yesterday morning and died in
stantly. The suicide occurred about 5
o'clock in the rear of No. 2010 Market
street, a resort kept by Nellie Will
liams. The body was not found until
nearly 10 o'clock.
Roberts was grand recorder of the
Ancient Order of United Workmen
and was to have turned over the rec
ords of the office to his successor yes
terday afternoon. A committee of the
order is now engaged in checking over
the accounts of the office and 1t is
given out unofficially that the amount
of the shortage will be about $1,000.
Roberts had been missing since
Wednesday and a committee had been
appointed to search the city for him.
The police were not asked to aid in
the search. Where he has been dur
ing the past two days none of the
members of the lodge has been able
to find out.

President Roosevelt and w. A. Rich
ards. commissioner of the general land
office, have been asked to sanction the
exchange of more than 100000 acres of
forest lands owned by Colorado for
agricultural lands owned by the gov
ernment. Both are expected to ap-
prove of this plan to further the work
of preserving forests and sources of
water supply. Henry Nicholson, who
has charge of the work of the Forestry
bureau in Colorado. presented the mat
ter to the executive and the commits
sioner at Cheyenne while both were
there Monday. The matter will be
taken up at Washington and action
will probably follow Immediately in
accordance with the wish of the State
Land Board. 1t is for the purpose of
perpetuating the water supply of the
state in order that the agricultural
progress may be continued thas ne
State Land Board has given Register
Woodruff authority to exchange the
timber lands for agricultural lands
now held by the government. The de-
struction of the timber Is in itself the
smallest feature of the case. 1t is the
water question that makes action i'm
perative.-Denver Republican.
Students in the high schools of the
city and county of Denver will no long
er receive any free text books. At a
meeting of the Board of Education it
was decided to extend the rule that al
ways prevailed in old District No.
to the other portions of the county.
Only two high schools will be affected
by the extension of this rule. These are
those of old districts Nos. 2 and IL.
None of the other old districts ever
gave text books to students in the high
schools For this reason the effects of
the rule will not be very extensive. In
making the rule to apply to the entire
district as formed under the home rule
amendment the school board merely
extended the conditions that had pre-
vailed in most of the old districts to
the others. Reports from those sections
in which text books had been supplied
show that not great many were ap-
piled for. Therefore, not many will be
affected.

COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Coal by Trolley Cars.

The Leyden Coal Company has be-
gun operations this week as an active
rival OF other companies doing business
in the Denver market. The company
Is owned by the same interests which
control the Denver Tramway and the
Denver & Northwestern Railroad Com
pany, and has the advantage of their
electric lines in reaching local markets
with its product.
A second shaft has been driven at
the Leyden mine and the machinery
has been put in operation. The COM
pany is prepared to deliver a large
daily output. Big coal yards have been
established opposite Elitch's Gardens
on the land adjoining the old West
End power house. Several additional
side tracks have been put in and the IA
cilities are now available for any
amount of traffic.
Thirty of the fifteen-ton Ingoldsby
dump cars. delivered some time ago to
the Tramway and Denver & North
western, have been fitted with electric
motors and trolleys, and are now In
use hauling coal from the Leyden mine
to the West End yards. Coal Is also
hauled direct to the various Tramway
power houses over the electric lines,
saving much expense for carriage.
The system of hauling the coal to
the city, as now adopted In supplying
the Tramway power houses. is this:
An Ingoldsby patent dump car. fitted
with four powerful motors, is used as
the motor car for train of six OF these
dump cars and proves powerful enough
to pull the load easily over the grades
from Leyden to the city. This train
is run up on the elevated track at the
power house and the automatic dump
ing apparatus quickly deposits the coal
in the bins below. II the Tramway
company is permitted to run these
trains over its city tracks. 1t is expect
ed that the same system will be used
to supply various retail coal yards and
branch depots may be established In
various parts of the city. from which
neighborhoods can be supplied with
fuel at small carriage cost.

COMMITS SUICIDE

Denver, June IA Republican spe-
eial from Colorado Springs last night
says:
Lying dead in a pool of its own
blood, shot through the head and the
revolver few inches from its right
hand, the body of Alvaro Hemenway
was found at 2:40 o'clock this after
noon by searching party in some
brush behind a group of cottonwood
trees in the Fountain Creek flats. The
place is called the Portland pasture,
and the location of the body was about
$50 yards southwest of the Midland
bridge over Fountain creek and quar-
ter of mile east of the Portland mill.
William Myers. one of the searching
party employed by o. f. Hemenway,
son of the deceased, discovered the
body.
No inquest will be held. as the case
Is clearly one of suicide. The bullet. a
3S-calibre, had entered the head one
inch above the tip of the right ear. and
had left the skull the same distance
above the left ear, but an inch farther
front
Alvaro Hemenway had been missing
since Wednesday morning, and his
perturbance over business affairs, to-
gether with the fact that the revolver
was missing from its accustomed place
in the safe at the Hemenway grocery
store led to the theory of suicide on
the part of Orin e. Hemenway. the son.
The latter employed searching par
ties since Thursday. and the canons
and other neighboring points were be-
ing secured when the discovery was
made.
The deceased was one of the oldest
and most respected citizens of Colo
RADIO Springs. He came to this city
about twenty years ago. first conduct
ing feed business on East Huerfano
street. About three years ago he sold
out, devoting all his attention to the
carriage business of A. H. Hemenway
& Co., which had gradually been in
creasing each year.
All his business interests flourished,
but 1t is said that he lost heavily in
Cripple Creek mining. His estate is
now rated at about $4,000.
