BILLIARD TOURNAMENT.

In the Elks billiard tournament,
play of which was resumed last night,
S. l.. Poage playing W G. Struthers.
The handicap for these gentlemen
was even, each playing 20. Poage
won the game by score of 10 to
Struther's 90. This gives Poage an
excellent chance of winning the tourn-
ament as he has won four out of the
five games played. There are several
of the other players who have a
chance to tie with him but in order
to do so they must win all of the
games they still have to plav. One
of the players referred to above is W.
II. Osborn. who will play Chas A.
Smith tonight. ! ]. II. Gallupe will
aslo play Mr.. Smith tonight and there
should be quite an attendance as Mr..

while he is handicapped pretty heavy.

We WILL
CELEBRATE THE
GLORIOUS 4TH.

The Fourth OF July celebration is
coming up to use common ex-
preston. The seed that was sown by
the articles in the Sentinel took root
in the Chamber of Commerce and
there seems to be a lively movement
toward having first class Fourth of
July celebration in this city.
There is no possible reason why
there should not be one. We have
the people and can produce the fun,
so there it is and there can be no
valid reason presented against goi
ahead and having the event.
The Chamber of Commerce has
taken the which they
should do. and it has appointed an
executive committee to take charge
of the work This committee consists
of DR.. @. d. Fisher, ]. A. Lyons
and A A. Miller This is a first
class committee to take hold of the
work. AT meeting of this commit
tee last night, committees We're
appointed to take up the various parts
of the work.
Without any attempt to tender ad-
vice, because The Sentinel is lust as
anxious to have this celebration as any
one else in the city, it must be borne
in mind that it will require individ-
ual effort from everybody to make the
affair a success There was a time
several years ago, when the day was
celebrated here with great hurrah.
it can be done again.

C. H. KIMBALL
STRICKEN WITH
PARALYSIS.

Denver, May 20. - While consulting
his attorney ON the proper methods
exposing the rottenenss of the condi-
tion said to exist at the State Indus
trial school at Golden. George Ii.
Kimball. member of the board of
control of that institution. was strick-
en with paralysis and is now in a
at the Homeopathic hospital where he
was taken Thursday from the Office of
Former State Senator Fred W. Parks
with whom he was in conference at
the time he was stricken.
At the hospital this morning. it was
stated that Mr.. Kimball had lost the
power OF speech, and that there was
a clot of blood at the base of the
brain which BODIED serious conse-
quences.
Mr.. Kimpall came to Denver from
his home at Golden, for the express
purpose of starting an inquiry into
certain charges affecting the board of
control and the management of the
industrial school for. boys. Cover
nor Peabody was out of the city, so
Mr.. Kin ball repaired to the office of
Senator Parks where illness overcame
him before he could unfold his allie
cations and his plans for bringing
them to the attention of the public.
One matter mentioned by Mr.. Kimb-
all was a scandal growing out of the
regular Saturday night dances held
at the school which he said were hav-
ing a bad moral effect upon the in
mates. Extravaganza in the matter
of contracts for supplies. it is claim
ed. is another charge Mr.. Kimball
wished to bring against the board.
Just what the charges may consist
of, will remain matter of conjec-
ture until the patient RECEIVERS or un-
til the governor shall order an in
quiry. based on the general state
ments made by Mr.. Kimball to his
attorney.

TO DISCUSS
EXCESSIVE FREIGHT
RATES.

The Chamber of Commerce will
meet to night to take the matter of
the excessive freight rates to this city
up for consideration. This has been
long mooted question and one which
has never been satisfactorily explain
ed to the people, why they have been
held up for higher rate than any
other town or city in the state and
almost any other town or city in the
United States.
The Sentinel. however. has informa-
tion that another tack to bring rail
ways to time will be taken by private
parties. A number of gentlemen will
wait developments from the Chamber
of Commerce for a short time, but the
time will be short, and if nothing is
done suit will be begun before the
Interstate Commerce Commission at
Washington and then something must
come from the matter.
The Sentinel can assert that the
legal papers have already been made
out TO commence the suit, so that
whatever work can be accomplished
by the Chamber of Commerce. will
not end the matter, if something sat is

Those Alaskan Mana.

Washington Letter in New York Post.
The reported discovery in Canada of some
very old maps, showing the British bound
ary of Alaska where the British govern
ment insists that ii Is to-day, has not dis
concerted any one In our Department OF
State. 1t is asserted there that the exist
ence of such maps, bearing date 1923 and
1924, has been perfectly well known to
everybody interested, and that Russian
maps of equally remote date can be pro-
duced, showing the Alaska line long way
east of where anybody claims IL now. While
the search for ancient maps is I'm progress.
moreover, there are some of American au-
thorship which show that whole region as
belonging to the United States. The fact
was, all the nations having even the shad-
owiest foundation on which 10 build up a
claim assumed ownership OF the whole.
the ground that II would be easier TO let
20 of disputed territory than TO acquire IL
after others had taken IL, and. therefore.
the only safe course was to reach out for
everything in sight.
All these maps preceding the date OF the
treaty whereby Russia and England settled
on the line between their respective domin-
ions will be dismissed by the international
tribunal as having no practical bearing on
the case. The particular country In dispute
was almost wholly unknown to either party
at the time the treaty was made. when
there was the best OF reason for both par
ties understanding what they were about
to give and take. Ii will therefore be hard

once and the mulch loosened partially

d II our object is earliness. the mulch
should be removed from around the crowns
as soon as freezing weather is past. Some
prefer TO simply loosen the covering over
the plants and let them force their way
through. While sometimes successful, this
practice is not TO be encouraged. as IL tends
to cause a weak, slender growth, with i'm
paired vitality. Others uncover the plants
and leave the mulch in the center Of the
row. Again. there are those who are will
ing to bestoW extra care. They remove
the mulch entirely. cultivate very shallow
to avoid disturbing the small feeding roots,
then replace the mulch between the rows,
where IL serves the two-fold purpose of
keeping the fruit clean and of retaining
moisture. 1 consider this extra labor well
spent. The cultivation warns the SOIL
renders more quickly available the plant
food present and imparts more vigorous
start. If. however, our object Is to delay
the blooming, period and thus retard the
crop, the mulch should be left on a week
or two after the plants would naturally
have started into growth. This Is special
practice and will require considerable care
and skill, otherwise the plants Will become
bleached and weakened.
Shall we add plant food in the spring?
AS a general rule ii will pay, provided We
clearly understand the special object One
aim should be to stimulate the fruit-pro-
ducing organs and not rank foliage
growth. Manures or highly nitrogenous
fertilizers should for this season be avoided
or applied in very limited quantities. Wood
ashes and ground bone il applied early are
good combination; sulphate of potash,
acid phosphate and tankage should be
equally good: four or five hundred pounds
to the acre should be sufficient.
The healthiness of the foliage is of the
utmost Importance. To insure this, spray
ing with Bordeaux mixture Is necessary.
